An β-Aroylacrylic acid ethyl ester such as ethyl (E)-4-(3,4- dimethoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-2-butenoate (1) can be obtained in good yield and with excellent purity by way of the Friedel-Crafts reaction in which 1,2-dimethoxybenzene (2) is treated with maleic anhydride (3) and aluminum chloride in the presence of diethyl sulfate (4) under mild conditions.

The copper-catalyzed [4 + 2] annulation of α,β-unsaturated ketoxime acetates with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds for the synthesis of three classes of structurally diverse pyridines has been developed. This method employs 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds as C2 synthons and enables the synthesis of multifunctionalized pyridines with diverse electron-withdrawing groups in moderate to good yields. The mechanistic investigation suggests that the reactions proceed through an ionic pathway.

A series of novel (E)-4-oxo-2-crotonamide derivatives were designed and synthesized to find potent antituberculosis agents. All the target compounds were evaluated for their in vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv(MTB). Results reveal that 4-phenyl moiety at part A and short methyl group at part C were found to be favorable. Most of the derivatives displayed promising activity against MTB with MIC ranging from 0.125 to 4 μg/mL. Especially, compound IIIa16 was found to have the best activity with MIC of 0.125 μg/mL against MTB and with MIC in the range of 0.05–0.48 μg/mL against drug-resistant clinical MTB isolates.

Potassium 2-oxo-3-enoates, which are readily prepared at scale and easily stored, have been found to be effective and versatile surrogates for α,β-unsaturated aldehydes in NHC-catalyzed asymmetric reactions. Promoted by chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes combined with LiCl, these easy-to-handle solid salts could release of CO2 and then undergo asymmetric reactions via homoenolate and α, β-unsaturated acyl azolium intermediate. The reactions have broad substrate scopes with high enantioselectivities. (Figure presented.).

Protein kinase B (PknB) is an essential serine/threonine protein kinase required for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) cell division and cell-wall biosynthesis. A high throughput screen using PknB identified a (E)-4-oxo-crotonic acid inhibitor, named YH-8, which was used as a scaffold for SAR investigations. A significant improvement in enzyme affinity was achieved. The results indicated that the α,β-unsaturated ketone scaffold and “trans-” configuration are essential for the activity against PknB. And compounds with an aryl group, especially with electron-withdrawing substituents on benzene ring, exhibited four fold potency than that of YH-8.
Enantioselective NHC-catalysed redox [4+2]-hetero-Diels-Alder reactions using α-aroyloxyaldehydes and unsaturated ketoesters
Taylor, James E.,Davies, Alyn T.,Douglas, James J.,Churchill, Gwydion,Smith, Andrew D.
, p. 355 - 366 (2017/02/15)
N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalysed redox [4+2]-hetero-Diels-Alder reactions of α-aroyloxyaldehydes with either β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoesters or α,β-unsaturated γ-ketoesters generates substituted syn-dihydropyranones in good yield with excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99:1 er). The product diastereoselectivity is markedly dependent upon the nature of the unsaturated enone substituent. The presence of either electron-neutral or electron-rich aryl substituents gives excellent diastereoselectivity (up to >99:5 dr), while electron-deficient aryl substituents give reduced diastereoselectivity. In these cases, the syn-dihydropyranone products are more susceptible to base-promoted epimerisation at the C(4)-position under the reaction conditions, accounting for the lower diastereoselectivity obtained.
Substrate-Controlled, One-Pot Synthesis: Access to Chiral Chroman-2-one and Polycyclic Derivatives

Based on the appropriate choice of electrophiles, one-pot, multicomponent, enantioselective domino reactions have been realized which contain a five-step sequence and provide highly efficient access to potentially bioactive chroman-2-one derivatives as a single diastereoisomer with excellent enantioselectivities and in high yields. This new strategy could significantly improve the previous protocol by directly starting from commercial 2-hydroxybenzaldehydes rather than preformed lactols, which have to be synthesized in several additional steps.

Divergently activated double bonds in electron poor 4-oxo-butenoates and (2E,4E)-6-oxo-2,4-dienoates underwent stereoselective and regioselective addition of mercaptans catalyzed by simple Cinchona alkaloids. Application of quinine and quinidine afforded both enantiomers of the 1,4-adducts with respect to the ketone carbonyl group in ees of up to 80%. Single recrystallization of some adducts resulted in further enrichment of up to 99%ee.

Our studies examined the structural features responsible for the antifungal activity of 2-ethoxycarbonyl-1,5-benzothiazepine (7a). Three series of 1,5-benzothiazepine derivatives were synthesized and screened for their antifungal activity. The results suggested that the ethoxycarbonyl group at the 2 position and the imine moiety on the seven-membered ring are essential for activity. The most potent of the synthesized analogues (7a, 7b) were further studied by evaluating their cytotoxicity and mode of action (for 7a). The results showed that compounds 7a and 7b were relatively safe for BV2 cells, but compound 7a interfered with Cryptococcus neoformans cell wall integrity by increasing the chitinase activity. Therefore, compound 7a was considered safe as an antifungal agent for animal cells. Three series of 1,5-benzothiazepine derivatives were synthesized and their antifungal activities were evaluated to determine the structure-activity relationships with respect to the antifungal activity of 2-ester-substituted 1,5-benzothiazepines. The effective antifungal compounds 7a and 7b were further studied for their antifungal activity, cytotoxicity and mechanism of action (for compound 7a). The results provided important information about this class of benzothiazepines. Copyright

A useful Michael addition reaction using nitroalkanes as the nucleophile and 4-oxo-enoates as the Michael acceptor has been disclosed, and the reaction allows expedient access to functionalized chiral γ-keto esters in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee), with a low catalyst loading.
