A three-step synthesis of 2-nonen-4-olide starting from heptanal is reported. (E)-3-Nonenoic acid, prepared by Knoevenagel condensation of malonic acid and heptanal, was oxidised by performic acid, a process accompanied by lactonisation, to give 3-hydroxynonan-4-olide in 85% yield. This lactone when reacted with MsCl in the presence of Et3N gave, by elimination, 2-nonen-4-olide in 88% yield. The overall yield was 75%. The odour of the product was evaluated by GC-olfactory analysis and sniffing blotter confirming an oily, coconut-like, and rancid odour.

DMDO epoxidation of bromoallenes gives directly α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids under the reaction conditions. Calculated (ωB97XD/6- 311G(d,p)/SCRF = acetone) potential energy surfaces and 2H- and 13C-labeling experiments are consistent with bromoallene oxide intermediates which spontaneously rearrange via a bromocyclopropanone in an intersecting bromoallene oxide-Favorskii manifold.

Bacterial communication, termed Quorum Sensing (QS), is a promising target for virulence attenuation and the treatment of bacterial infections. Infections cause inflammation, a process regulated by a number of cellular factors, including the transcription Nuclear Factor kappa B (NF-κB); this factor is found to be upregulated in many inflammatory diseases, including those induced by bacterial infection. In this study, we tested 32 synthetic derivatives of coumaperine (CP), a known natural compound found in pepper (Piper nigrum), for Quorum Sensing Inhibition (QSI) and NF-κB inhibitory activities. Of the compounds tested, seven were found to have high QSI activity, three inhibited bacterial growth and five inhibited NF-κB. In addition, some of the CP compounds were active in more than one test. For example, compounds CP-286, CP-215 and CP-158 were not cytotoxic, inhibited NF-κB activation and QS but did not show antibacterial activity. CP-154 inhibited QS, decreased NF-κB activation and inhibited bacterial growth. Our results indicate that these synthetic molecules may provide a basis for further development of novel therapeutic agents against bacterial infections.
Co-catalysis over a tri-functional ligand modified Pd-catalyst for hydroxycarbonylation of terminal alkynes towards α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids

An amphiphilic tri-functional ligand (L1) containing a Lewis acidic phosphonium cation, a phosphino-fragment and a hydrophilic sulfonate anion (-SO3-) enabled Pd(OAc)2 to efficiently co-catalyze the hydroxycarbonylation of terminal alkynes towards α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids. These incorporated functional groups synergistically promoted the reaction, which proved more effective than the ligands lacking -SO3- and/or phosphonium and the mechanical mixtures of the individual functional groups independently. The molecular structure of Pd-L1 indicated that -SO3- in L1 served as a secondary O-donor ligand with reversible coordinating ability, cooperating with the phosphino-fragment to stabilize the Pd-catalyst. The in situ FT-IR analysis verified that the formation and stability of Pd-H active species in charge of hydroxycarbonylation were dramatically facilitated by the presence of L1. It was believed that, over the L1-based Pd-catalyst, H2O was cooperatively activated by the Lewis acidic phosphonium via "acid-base pair" interaction (H2O → P(v)+) and by the hydrophilic SO3-via hydrogen bonding (SO3-?H2O), giving rise to the formation of dimeric and mono-nuclear Pd-H species driven by reversible SO3--coordination. In addition, the L1-based Pd-catalyst could be immobilized in the ionic liquid [Bmim]NTf2 for six-run recycling uses without obvious activity loss and detectable metal leaching.

Inhibition of human cytochrome P450 2E1 and 2A6 by aldehydes: Structure and activity relationships

The purpose of this study was to probe active site structure and dynamics of human cytochrome P4502E1 and P4502A6 using a series of related short chain fatty aldehydes. Binding efficiency of the aldehydes was monitored via their ability to inhibit the binding and activation of the probe substrates p-nitrophenol (2E1) and coumarin (2A6). Oxidation of the aldehydes was observed in reactions with individually expressed 2E1, but not 2A6, suggesting alternate binding modes. For saturated aldehydes the optimum chain length for inhibition of 2E1 was 9 carbons (KI = 7.8 ± 0.3 μM), whereas for 2A6 heptanal was most potent (KI = 15.8 ± 1.1 μM). A double bond in the 2-position of the aldehyde significantly decreased the observed KI relative to the corresponding saturated compound in most cases. A clear difference in the effect of the double bond was observed between the two isoforms. With 2E1, the double bond appeared to remove steric constraints on aldehyde binding with KI values for the 5-12 carbon compounds ranging between 2.6 ± 0.1 μM and 12.8 ± 0.5 μM, whereas steric effects remained the dominant factor in the binding of the unsaturated aldehydes to 2A6 (observed KI values between 7.0 ± 0.5 μM and >1000 μM). The aldehyde function was essential for effective inhibition, as the corresponding carboxylic acids had very little effect on enzyme activity over the same range of concentrations, and branching at the 3-position of the aldehydes increased the corresponding KI value in all cases examined. The results suggest that a conjugated π-system may be a key structural determinant in the binding of these compounds to both enzymes, and may also be an important feature for the expansion of the active site volume in 2E1.

The sequential hydroalumination or methylalumination of various alkynes catalyzed by different catalyst systems, such those based on Sc, Zr, and Ni complexes, and the subsequent carboxylation of the resulting alkenylaluminum species with CO2 catalyzed by an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-copper catalyst have been examined in detail. The regio- and stereoselectivity of the overall reaction relied largely on the hydroalumination or methylalumination reactions, which significantly depended on the catalyst and alkyne substrates. The subsequent Cu-catalyzed carboxylation proceeded with retention of the stereoconfiguration of the alkenylaluminum species. All the reactions could be carried out in one-pot to afford efficiently a variety of α,β- unsaturated carboxylic acids with well-controlled configurations, which are difficult to construct by previously reported methods. This protocol could be practically useful and attractive because of its high regio- and stereoselectivity, simple one-pot reaction operation, and the use of CO 2 as a starting material. Copyright

Lipid peroxidation is one of the consequences of environmental stress in plants and leads to the accumulation of highly toxic, reactive aldehydes. One of the processes to detoxify these aldehydes is their oxidation into carboxylic acids catalyzed by NAD(P)+-dependent ALDHs (aldehyde dehydrogenases). We investigated kinetic parameters of two Arabidopsis thaliana family 3 ALDHs, the cytosolic ALDH3H1 and the chloroplastic isoform ALDH3I1. Both enzymes had similar substrate specificity and oxidized saturated aliphatic aldehydes. Catalytic efficiencies improved with the increase of carbon chain length. Both enzymes were also able to oxidize α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, but not aromatic aldehydes. Activity of ALDH3H1 was NAD+-dependent, whereas ALDH3I1 was able to use NAD+ and NADP+. An unusual isoleucine residue within the coenzyme-binding cleft was responsible for the NAD +-dependence of ALDH3H1. Engineering the coenzyme-binding environment of ALDH3I1 elucidated the influence of the surrounding amino acids. Enzyme activities of both ALDHs were redox-sensitive. Inhibitionwas correlatedwith oxidation of both catalytic and noncatalytic cysteine residues in addition to homodimer formation. Dimerization and inactivation could be reversed by reducing agents. Mutant analysis showed that cysteine residues mediating homodimerization are located in the N-terminal region. Modelling of the protein structures revealed that the redox-sensitive cysteine residues are located at the surfaces of the subunits. The Authors Journal compilation

Palladium(II)-catalyzed chemoselective oxidation of αβ- unsaturated aldehydes with hydrogen peroxide to give Oα,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids was performed. Cinnamaldehyde was effectively catalyzed by palladium(II) trifluoroacetate to generate cinnamic acid in 92% yield under organic solvent-free conditions. The reaction appears to be applicable to various α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. Copyright
