- β-Lactone formation during product release from a nonribosomal peptide synthetase
-
Nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) are multidomain modular biosynthetic assembly lines that polymerize amino acids into a myriad of biologically active nonribosomal peptides (NRPs). NRPS thioesterase (TE) domains employ diverse release strategies for off-loading thioester-tethered polymeric peptides from termination modules typically via hydrolysis, aminolysis, or cyclization to provide mature antibiotics as carboxylic acids/esters, amides, and lactams/lactones, respectively. Here we report the enzyme-catalyzed formation of a highly strained β-lactone ring during TE-mediated cyclization of a β-hydroxythioester to release the antibiotic obafluorin (Obi) from an NRPS assembly line. The Obi NRPS (ObiF) contains a type I TE domain with a rare catalytic cysteine residue that plays a direct role in β-lactone ring formation. We present a detailed genetic and biochemical characterization of the entire Obi biosynthetic gene cluster in plant-associated Pseudomonas fluorescens ATCC 39502 that establishes a general strategy for β-lactone biogenesis.

- Copper-Catalyzed Ring-Opening/Reconstruction of Anthranils with Oxo-Compounds: Synthesis of Quinoline Derivatives
-
A copper-catalyzed protocol for the construction of various 2-aryl(alkyl)-3-acylquinolines or 3-arylquinolines using readily available anthranils and 1,3-diketones or aldehydes as starting materials is reported herein. Dioxygen as the sole oxidant and hexafluoroisopropanol as the solvent play an important role in both procedures. This ring-opening/reconstruction strategy involving N-O bond cleavage and C-N/C-C bond formation features high yields and broad substrate scope.

- Facile Access to Challenging ortho-Terphenyls via Merging Two Multi-Step Domino Reactions in One-Pot: A Joint Experimental/Theoretical Study
-
ortho-Terphenyls are of high interest for medicinal chemistry and materials science, but they are difficult to access. Herein, we demonstrate a straightforward and sustainable synthesis of highly functionalized ortho-terphenyls via joining an organocatalyzed two-step domino reaction (Knoevenagel/vinylogous Michael) with a DABCO/CuBr2 co-catalyzed three-step domino reaction (cyclization/tautomerization/aromatization) in a one-pot process. Overcoming necessity to isolate intermediate products leads to a reduction of energy, costs and waste for a broad scope of reactions. DFT calculations have been performed to investigate the thermodynamics of this one-pot process towards ortho-terphenyls and to study the reaction profile of the vinylogous Michael reaction under inclusion of solvent effects. Role of London dispersion forces in this transformation has been elucidated. It is shown that reaction kinetics and thermodynamics are slightly influenced by dispersion interactions. Furthermore, the addition of dispersion energy donors leads to small changes of reaction energies in some cases.

- Tetradentate amido azo Schiff base Cu(II), Ni(II) and Pd(II) complexes: Synthesis, characterization, spectral properties, and applications to catalysis in C–C coupling and oxidation reaction
-
New Schiff base ligands (H2L1 & H2L2) were synthesized by the reaction of salicylaldehyde with (2-((2-aminophenyl)diazenyl)-N-alkylaniline), and were used for the preparation of complexes with Cu(II), Ni(II) and Pd(II) metal ions. The structural features of the synthesized compounds were examined by UV–Vis, IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structures of Schiff base (H2L1) and two metal complexes Cu(L1) and Ni(L2) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The studies revealed that the synthesized Schiff bases existed as tetradentate (N,N,N,O) ligands and bonded to the metal ions through the donor atoms of the amido nitrogen, azo nitrogen, azomethine nitrogen and phenolic oxygen atoms. The redox property of Cu(L1) and Ni(L1) and emission behavior of ligand H2L1 and complexes Cu(L1) and Ni(L1) were examined. The complex Cu(L1) shows excellent catalytic activity towards oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzyldehyde (under solvent-free condition) using H2O2 as the oxidant. Complex Pd(L1) acts as highly efficient catalyst in the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of various aryl halides with phenyl boronic acid to produce the corresponding biaryls with high yields under mild reaction conditions. Both the catalysts Cu(L1) and Pd(L1) were easily recovered by simple chromatographic separation and reused for next catalytic cycle.

- Synthesis of Substrates for Aldolase-Catalysed Reactions: A Comparison of Methods for the Synthesis of Substituted Phenylacetaldehydes
-
Methods for the synthesis of phenylacetaldehydes (oxidation, one-carbon chain extension) were compared by using the synthesis of 4-methoxyphenylacetaldehyde as a model example. Oxidations of 4-methoxyphenylethanol with activated DMSO (Swern oxidation) or manganese dioxide gave unsatisfactory results; whereas oxidation with 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) produced 4-methoxyphenylacetaldehyde in reasonable (75%) yield. However, Wittig-type one-carbon chain extension with methoxymethylene-triphenylphosphine followed by hydrolysis gave an excellent (81% overall) yield of 4-methoxyphenylacetaldehyde from 4-methoxybenzaldehyde (a cheap starting material). This approach was subsequently used to synthesise a set of 10 substituted phenylacetaldehydes in good to excellent yields.

- Porphyrins as Photoredox Catalysts in Csp2-H Arylations: Batch and Continuous Flow Approaches
-
We have investigated both batch and continuous flow photoarylations of enol-acetates to yield different α-arylated aldehyde and ketone building blocks by using diazonium salts as the aryl-radical source. Different porphyrins were used as SET photocatalysts, and photophysical as well as electrochemical studies were performed to rationalize the photoredox properties and suggest mechanistic insights. Notably, the most electron-deficient porphyrin (meso-tetra(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin) shows the best photoactivity as an electron donor in the triplet excited state, which was rationalized by the redox potentials of excited states and the turnover of the porphyrins in the photocatalytic cycle. A two-step continuous protocol and multigram-scale reactions are also presented revealing a robust, cost-competitive, and easy methodology, highlighting the significant potential of porphyrins as SET photocatalysts.

We report the reductive activation of O2 by a bioinspired [(bTAML)FeIII(H2O)]- (1) complex to catalyze the epoxidation of alkenes with TONs of up to 80. Spectroscopic and kinetic evidence indicates the involvement of FeV(O) as the active oxidant during the reaction.

- Synthesis of a novel six membered CNS palladacycle; TD-DFT study and catalytic activity towards microwave-assisted selective oxidation of terminal olefin to aldehyde
-
This article documented synthesis of a Schiff base, E-2-(benzylthio)-N-{(2-methoxynaphthalene-1-yl)methylene}benzenamine (HL) by the treatment of 2-meyhoxynaphthaldehyde and 2-(benzylthio)aniline. Reaction of this synthesized Schiff base with Na2PdCl4has been investigated, which gave a novel six membered Pd(II) complex (PdLCl) through C,N,S-donor atom of Schiff base. These two newly synthesized compounds were characterized by1H NMR, FTIR and UV–Vis spectra and structure of the Pd(II) complex was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The catalyst (PdLCl) displayed considerable reactivity (up to 99% selectivity and 90% yield) in the selective oxidation of terminal [Formula presented] bond in aryl substituted olefin to aldehyde. The method shows good functional groups compatibility, no ketone byproducts and is operationally simple. Time dependent density functional study (TD-DFT) of representative cyclopalladated complex has been undertaken. The simulated optical spectrum of the complex is in good agreement with the experimentally observed spectrum.

- Homogeneous catalytic oxidation of styrene and styrene derivatives with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of transition metal-substituted polyoxotungstates
-
The tetrabutylammonium (TBA) salts of the Keggin-type polyoxotungstates with general formula [XW11M(H2O)O39](n-m)-, where X = P, B or Si and M = Mn, Fe or Co, were evaluated as catalysts in the oxidation of styrene, α-methylstyrene, p-methylstyrene, α,p-dimethylstyrene, p-chlorostyrene, p-nitrostyrene, and p-methoxystyrene under mild conditions, using aqueous H2O2 as an eco-sustainable oxidant. In this study, the influence of the catalysts and of the different styrene substituents on the oxidation reaction profile was evaluated in terms of conversion and selectivity. For all the performed catalytic studies, the main product results from the oxidative cleavage of the vinyl double bond, except in the case of the oxidation of p-methoxystyrene catalysed by BW11Mn, for which p-methoxyphenol is the main product. The catalysts BW11Mn and SiW11Co give rise to 100% conversion for almost all of the substrates, excluding p-methoxystyrene and p-nitrostyrene for both catalysts and α,p-dimethylstyrene only in the case of BW11Mn. The selectivity for C=C cleavage products resulting from the oxidative cleavage of the vinyl double bond can be as high as 98%, reaching 98% conversion for p-nitrostyrene when SiW11Co was used as a catalyst. Possible pathways are discussed and the oxidation of a few presumed intermediates was carried out. The systematic study of several substituted styrene derivatives suggests a possible reactivity order for these compounds in the catalytic system considered.

- Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of chalcones by trichloroisocyanuric acid [TCICA] in HOAc-HCIO4 medium
-
The kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of chalcone and some substituted chalcones by trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCICA) has been investigated at 313 K in HOAc-HCIO4 medium. The reaction has been found to be first order each in [TCICA] and [Chalcone] and fractional order in [H+]. There is no kinetic or spectral evidence for the formation of complex between TCICA and Chalcone. The rate increases with increase in percentage of acetic acid and [CF]. The products of oxidation have been identified as phenyl acetaldehyde and benzoic acid. The reactive species of oxidant have been established as HOCl and H2OCI+. The rate increases with electron releasing groups in the benzaldehyde moety and vice versa with a Hammett's p value of -0.45. A suitable mechanism involving the chalcone molecule and the reactive species of TCICA in the rate determining step has also been proposed.

A nitro group may be effectively delivered to the ortho position of alkylbenzenes, provided that a suitable chaperon function is located in α- position and a dilute of HNO3 in CH2Cl2 is used. The carbonyl function of an aldehyde or ketone is the best choice, but a carboxyl, alkoxycarbonyl, and amide groups all work well. The ether function showed a less pronounced ortho orientation effect, whereas the hydroxyl group was too prone to oxidation. Side reactions were minimal under the conditions employed. A para chaperon effect was seemingly at work in the CH2Cl2 nitration of benzenepropanenitrile. All the results were compared with the corresponding classical nitration in H2SO4.

Formation of an intermediate complex between VV and BMS and subsequent decomposition of this in a slow step, involving the attack of oxidant on the non-bonded electrons of sulphide sulpher is proposed as the probable mechanism.

Rate and product studies of the hydronium ion-catalyzed, hydroxide ion-catalyzed, and spontaneous reactions of styrene oxide and its p-CH3O, p-CH3, p-Cl, and p-O2N-derivatives in water solutions have been carried out.A Hammett correlation of log k for the acid-catalyzed reactions vs ?+ gives a slope ρ+ of -4.2 and only diol products are formed.An intermediate in the hydronium ion-catalyzed hydrolysis of p-methoxystyrene oxide is trapped, subsequent to its rate-limiting formation, by azide ion.The spontaneous reactions of p-methylstyrene oxide and styrene oxide yield only diol products, and their reactions in 18O-water indicate that >/= 98percent and ca. 95percent, respectively, of 18O is incorporated into the benzyl positions.Nucleophilic addition of water to the benzyl carbon of neutral epoxide is proposed as the mechanism of the primary component of the spontaneous reaction for the p-CH3-, p-H- and p-Cl-substrates on the basis of a Hammett ρ of -2.0.The spontaneous rate constant for reaction of p-methoxystyrene oxide is much greater than that expected from a Hammett correlation for the p-CH3, p-H-, and p-Cl-styrene oxides.This increased rate is attributed to the incursion of a reaction that yields mainly (>80percent) p-methoxyphenylacetaldehyde.The regiochemistries of addition of hydroxide ion in 18O-water to p-CH3-, p-H-, and p-Cl-, and p-O2N-substituted styrene oxides were also determined and found to vary as functions of the para substituent.Addition of hydroxide and methoxide ions to the α-carbon is favored by electron-donating groups in the phenyl ring, and addition of these nucleophiles to the β-carbon is favored by electron-withdrawing groups in the phenyl ring.

- REARRANGEMENT OF ARYL-SUBSTITUTED EPOXIDES IN THE PRESENCE OF NaBH4
-
Aromatic epoxides are rearranged to the corresponding aldehydes when NaBH4 is used as reducing agent in benzene at 45 deg C.If the solvents are THF, EtOH ot i-PrOH, the main products of the ring-opening reaction by NaBH4 are the secondary alcohols.

- Catalytic Asymmetric Epoxidations with Chiral Iron Porphyrins
-
Iron porphyrins have been modified to include optically active functionalities at the meso positions.Asymmetric epoxidations of prochiral olefins with these chiral iron porphyrins and iodosyl compounds have been investigated.Thus, 5α,10β,15α,20β-tetrakis(o-(R)-hydratropamidophenyl)porphyrin (H2T(α,β,α,β-Hyd)PP) and 5α,10β,15α,20β-tetrakis(ophenyl)porphyrin (H2T(α,β,α,β-Binap)PP) were synthesized by the condensation of optically active acid chlorides with 5α,10β,15α,20β-tetrakis(o-aminophenyl)porphyrin.Subsequent insertion of iron into H2T(α,β,α,β-Hyd)PP and H2T(α,β,α,β-Binap)PP gave FeT(α,β,α,β-Hyd)PPCl and FeT(α,β,α,β-Binap)PPCl, respectively.Emploing FeT(α,β,α,β-Hyd)PPCl iodosylbenzene, styrene was oxidized to (R)-(+)-styrene oxide in 31percent ee.Similarly, FeT(α,β,α,β-Binap)PPCl and iodosylmesitylene gave (R)-(+)-styrene oxide in 48percent ee.Various substituted styrenes and aliphatic olefins were epoxidized with enantiomeric excesses varying between 0percent for 1-methylcyclohexene oxide and 51percent for p-chlorostyrene oxide.

- Photohydration of Aromatic Alkenes and Alkynes
-
The photohydrations of aromatic alkenes and alkynes 2-12 have been studied in aqueous sulfuric acid.For the nonnitro-substituted substrates 2-8, the products are the compounds obtained via Markovnikov addition of water to the alkene or alkyne moiety.Nitro-substituted styrenes 11 and 12 and phenylacetylenes 9 and 10 gave anti-Markovnikov addition products.Product quantum yields (Ψpdt) generally show a strongly sigmoidal dependence on the activity of the medium, with the exception of the nitrostyrenes, where no such dependence was observed.For compounds 2-8, quenching of fluorescence with increasing acidity was observed, and the proposed photohydration mechanism involves a rate-limiting protonation step on the first excited singlet state (S1), while for the nitrostyrenes, a rate-limiting attack of water on T1 is consistent with the available data.A mechanism involving a concerted addition of H3O+ to T1 is proposed for the photohydration of (nitrophenyl)acetylenes 9 and 10.The solvent isotope effect on the product quantum yield (ΨH/ΨD) is consistent with these proposals.Photoprotonation rate constants (kH) have been obtained - via transient and steady state measurements - for substrates 2, 4-6, and 8.Alkenes are approximately ane order of magnitude less reactive than alkynes to photoprotonation, both of which are 1011 - 1014 times more reactive than the corresponding ground-state molecules.

- Reaction of Phenyl Styryl Ketone and Its Substituted Analogues with Ce(IV) in H2SO4-HOAc Mixtures: A Kinetic Study
-
Kinetics of oxidation of chalcone (phenyl styryl ketone) and its substituted analogues by Ce(IV) in H2SO4-HOAc mixtures has been investigated in the temperature range 40 deg-60 deg C.The rate law is found to be -d/dt = k''.The rate increases with the increase in at constant ionic strength, but decreases with increase in and percentage of acetic acid at constant .The effect of various substituents in the phenyl ring, directly attached to the double bond, on rate is in the order: p-Me > m-Me > p-Cl > H > m-Cl > m-NO2 >p-NO2.A mechanism in which the cleavage of carbon-carbon single bond, forming styryl carbonium ion and benzoyl radical, occurs in the rate-determining step is proposed.Activation parameters are also presented and discussed.
