In this study, sodium alginate was extracted from Sargassum algae, collected from coastal waters of Bushehr, Persian Gulf, Iran and used as a stabilizing and wrapping agent for CuO nanoparticles. The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized by some spectroscopic and microscopic techniques, such as IR, XRD, Uv-vis, BET, BJH, zeta potential, SEM, TEM, HR-TEM, and XPS. The antibacterial effects of the CuO-alginate nanocomposite against some bacteria, isolated from a burn wound, were evaluated. The results showed that this nanocomposite had better antibacterial effects than its components onPseudomonas aeruginosaATCC 27853,Staphylococcus aureusATCC 12600,Streptococcus pyogenesATCC 19615, andStaphylococcus epidermidisATCC 49461. Among these,Staphylococcus aureusATCC 12600 was the most sensitive one to this nanocomposite, with the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration (2.08 mg mL?1) observed. Moreover, the synthesized nanocomposite showed good catalytic activity in the oxidative coupling of carboxylic acids withN,N-dialkylformamides toward the synthesis of amides.

We developed a protocol for the palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of aryl halides using less-toxic formamide acetals as bench-stable aminocarbonyl sources under neutral conditions. Various aryl (including heteroaryl) halides reacted with N,N-dialkylformamide acetals in the presence of a catalytic amount of tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0)-chloroform adduct and xantphos to give the corresponding aromatic carboxamides at 90–140 °C without any activating agents or bases in up to quantitative chemical yield. This protocol was applied to aryl bromides, aryl iodides, and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, as well as to relatively less-reactive aryl chlorides. A wide range of functionalities on the aromatic ring of the substrates were tolerated under the aminocarbonylation conditions. The catalytic aminocarbonylation was used to prepare the insect repellent N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide as well as a synthetic intermediate of the dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor triazinate.
Cobalt-catalysed C–H methylation for late-stage drug diversification

The magic methyl effect is well acknowledged in medicinal chemistry, but despite its significance, accessing such analogues via derivatization at a late stage remains a pivotal challenge. In an effort to mitigate this major limitation, we here present a strategy for the cobalt-catalysed late-stage C–H methylation of structurally complex drug molecules. Enabling broad applicability, the transformation relies on a boron-based methyl source and takes advantage of inherently present functional groups to guide the C–H activation. The relative reactivity observed for distinct classes of functionalities were determined and the sensitivity of the transformation towards a panel of common functional motifs was tested under various reaction conditions. Without the need for prefunctionalization or postdeprotection, a diverse array of marketed drug molecules and natural products could be methylated in a predictable manner. Subsequent physicochemical and biological testing confirmed the magnitude with which this seemingly minor structural change can affect important drug properties.
