Reactions between either L-serine methyl ester hydrochloride (1), or the cbz derivative, methyl (S)-(+)-2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-3-hydroxypropanoate (2), and pyrazinoyl chloride (3), have been studied. Methyl (S)-(+)-2- benzyloxycarbonylamino-3-[(pyrazinecarbonyl)oxy]propionate (4), methyl (S)-(+)-3-hydroxy-2-[(pyrazine-2-carbonyl) aminolpropionoate (7), methyl 2-[(pyrazinecarbonyl)amino]acrylate (8) were obtained. Additional products, methyl (S)-(+)-2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-3-formyloxypropionoate (5) and methyl (R)-(+)-2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-3-chloropropionoate (6), were isolated from reaction of 2 with 3, in the presence of DMF remaining from the preparation of 3, from pyrazinecarboxylic acid. The coupling of pyrazinecarboxylic acid with 1, in the presence of DCC was prevented by the formation of the unreactive adduct between DCC and pyrazinoic acid. The compounds were tested against M. tuberculosis: compounds (8) and (6) exhibited a MIC (μg/ml) value of 50 and 100, respectively, compared to the MIC value of 100 for the first line TB drug, pyrazinamide. The confirmation of the structure of (8) was obtained via X-ray crystallography.
On the mechanism of oxazoline-directed metalations: Evidence for nitrogen-directed reactions

We recently described a method for the synthesis of ferrocene complexes possessing planar chirality which relies on the asymmetric deprotonation of chiral ferrocenyloxazolines. The unexpected stereochemical outcome of these reactions led us to examine whether the metalation is directed by the oxygen or the nitrogen of the oxazoline. In this paper, we describe the synthesis of a constrained ferrocenyloxazoline (compound 13) in which oxygen- and nitrogen-directed metalations provide different stereochemical outcomes. Our results show that nitrogen is responsible for the directive effects of the oxazoline when alkyllithium reagents are used to deprotonate the ferrocene. The implications of this result on the origin of asymmetric induction in the metalation of the unconstrained ferrocenyloxazolines 19 and 20 are discussed.
Me3SI-promoted chemoselective deacetylation: a general and mild protocol

A Me3SI-mediated simple and efficient protocol for the chemoselective deprotection of acetyl groups has been developedviaemploying KMnO4as an additive. This chemoselective deacetylation is amenable to a wide range of substrates, tolerating diverse and sensitive functional groups in carbohydrates, amino acids, natural products, heterocycles, and general scaffolds. The protocol is attractive because it uses an environmentally benign reagent system to perform quantitative and clean transformations under ambient conditions.
TOLL-LIKE RECEPTOR LIGANDS

Paragraph 00316, (2019/08/29)
Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands having an allose-based core are stable in aqueous formulation and are useful in treating, preventing, or reducing susceptibility to diseases or conditions mediated by TLRs, such as cancer, infectious disease, allergy, autoimmune disease, sepsis, and ischemia reperfusion.
