- Extended structures controlled by intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonding: A case study with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide, 1,3-benzenedicarboxamide and N,N'-dimethyl-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide
-
The small organic molecule pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide, although known in the literature for some time, exhibits interesting and previously unexplored intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding both in solid state and in solution. With the aid of X-ray crystallography and variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy, we here demonstrate the presence of a very strong hydrogen bonding network for this molecule both in condensed state and solution. Furthermore, a novel extended hydrogen bonding graph-set has been derived for this molecule in crystalline state. Comparison of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide with 1,3-benzenedicarboxamide, where the intramolecular hydrogen bonding to the pyridine ring in the former has been removed, yields a different intermolecular hydrogen bonded structure in the solid state. A new graph-set has been determined for the extended structure of 1,3-benzenedicarboxamide in the solid state. In solution, 1,3-benzenedicarboxamide is shown to maintain a hydrogen bonding pattern that is weaker than that observed with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide. Replacement of one hydrogen on each carboxamide nitrogen of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide by a methyl group also alters the extended structure to a significant extent. In N,N'-dimethyl-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide, the three-dimensional hydrogen bonding pattern observed with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide all but collapses to one-dimensional chains.

- NADP-dependent glutamate dehydrogenases in a dimorphic zygomycete Benjaminiella poitrasii: Purification, characterization and their evaluation as an antifungal drug target
-
Background: It has been reported that the genes coding for NADP-dependent glutamate dehydrogenases (NADP-GDHs) showed a cause-effect relationship with Yeast-Hypha (Y[sbnd]H) reversible transition in a zygomycete Benjaminiella poitrasii. As Y[sbnd]H transition is significant in human pathogenic fungi for their survival and proliferation in the host, the NADP-GDHs can be explored as antifungal drug targets. Methods: The yeast-form specific BpNADPGDH I and hyphal-form specific BpNADPGDH II of B. poitrasii were purified by heterologous expression in E. coli BL-21 cells and characterized. The structural analogs of L-glutamate, dimethyl esters of isophthalic acid (DMIP) and its derivatives were designed, synthesized and screened for inhibition of NADP-GDH activity as well as Y[sbnd]H transition in B. poitrasii, and also in human pathogenic Candida albicans strains. Results: The BpNADPGDH I and BpNADPGDH II were found to be homo-hexameric proteins with native molecular mass of 282 kDa and 298 kDa, respectively and subunit molecular weights of 47 kDa and 49 kDa, respectively. Besides the distinct kinetic properties, BpNADPGDH I and BpNADPGDH II were found to be regulated by cAMP-dependent- and Calmodulin (CaM) dependent- protein kinases, respectively. The DMIP compounds showed a more pronounced effect on H-form specific BpNADPGDH II and inhibited Y[sbnd]H transition as well as growth in B. poitrasii and C. albicans strains. Conclusion: The present study will be useful to design and develop antifungal drugs against dimorphic human pathogens using glutamate dehydrogenase as a target. Significance: Glutamate dehydrogenases can be explored as a target against human pathogenic fungi.

- Ru-based complexes as heterogeneous potential catalysts for the amidation of aldehydes and nitriles in neat water
-
Five novel heterogeneous mononuclear complex-anchored Ru(III) have been efficiently sono-synthesized and characterized by utilizing several analytical techniques. The assembled complexes could be utilized as effective, robust and recyclable (up to eight consecutive runs) catalysts for one-pot transformation of a vast array of nitriles and aldehydes to primary amides in H2O under aerobic conditions. Moreover, some unreported di- and tetra-amide derivatives were obtained also under the optimal conditions. The results of ICP/OES analysis demonstrated that there is no detected leaching of the recycled catalyst, which suggests the real heterogeneity of the present protocol. The present Ru-complexes exhibited superiority compared to other reported catalysts for amide preparation in terms of low catalyst load, short reaction time, low operating temperature, no hazardous additives required, and high values of TON (990) and TOF (1980 h11).

- Transfer Hydration of Dinitriles to Dicarboxamides
-
We present a robust method for double transfer hydration of dinitriles to afford diamides. The transfer hydration of 1, n -dinitriles (n = 1-6) proceeds smoothly in the presence of a palladium(II) catalyst with acetamide as a water donor, affording the corresponding diamides in moderate to high yields, without involving significant side reactions such as monohydration or cyclization. The equilibrium was shifted in the forward direction by removing coproduced acetonitrile under reduced pressure.

- Efficient Bimetallic Catalysis of Nitrile Hydration to Amides with a Simple Pd(OAc)2/Lewis Acid Catalyst at Ambient Temperature
-
Transition-metal-catalyzed nitrile hydration is an atom-economic method for the synthesis of various amides. This work demonstrates for the first time that the addition of non-redox metal ions like Sc3+ dramatically accelerate the hydration of various nitriles to amides at ambient temperature with the simple Pd(OAc)2 salt as catalyst, whereas the reactions with Pd(OAc)2 alone were very sluggish. The formation of a heterobimetallic PdII/ScIII species has been proposed as the key species for the hydration that demonstrates a bimetallic synergistic effect in this process.

- Bis(allyl)-ruthenium(IV) complexes with phosphinous acid ligands as catalysts for nitrile hydration reactions
-
Several mononuclear ruthenium(iv) complexes with phosphinous acid ligands [RuCl2(η3:η3-C10H16)(PR2OH)] have been synthesized (78-86% yield) by treatment of the dimeric precursor [{RuCl(μ-Cl)(η3:η3-C10H16)}2] (C10H16 = 2,7-dimethylocta-2,6-diene-1,8-diyl) with 2 equivalents of different aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic secondary phosphine oxides R2P(O)H. The compounds [RuCl2(η3:η3-C10H16)(PR2OH)] could also be prepared, in similar yields, by hydrolysis of the P-Cl bond in the corresponding chlorophosphine-Ru(iv) derivatives [RuCl2(η3:η3-C10H16)(PR2Cl)]. In addition to NMR and IR data, the X-ray crystal structures of representative examples are discussed. Moreover, the catalytic behaviour of complexes [RuCl2(η3:η3-C10H16)(PR2OH)] has been investigated for the selective hydration of organonitriles in water. The best results were achieved with the complex [RuCl2(η3:η3-C10H16)(PMe2OH)], which proved to be active under mild conditions (60 °C), with low metal loadings (1 mol%), and showing good functional group tolerance.

The use of low metal concentration, environmentally friendly water as a reaction medium, with no use at all of organic solvent during or after the reactions, and microwaves as an alternative energy source renders the synthetic processes reported herein "truly" green and sustainable.

- Gold Activation of Nitriles: Catalytic Hydration to Amides
-
A gold-based catalytic system that efficiently mediates the hydration of a broad spectrum of nitriles, including aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic examples and efficiently catalyze the hydration of a range of organonitriles has been reported. Nitriles are considered inert in the context gold catalysis and have only been used as reaction solvent or as throw-away ligands in well-defined cationic gold catalysis. The obtained product was purified by flash chromatography using a gradient of pentane/ethyl acetate and compound 1 was isolated as a colorless solid. Aromatic substrates bearing two nitrile groups as in rn-benzenedinitrile and p-benzenedinitrile underwent double nitrile hydration and afforded excellent yields in the corresponding diamides. There is high relevance for the use of cationic gold complexes bearing such ligands and should have important implications in catalysis.

When MnO2 instead of TPCD was used in the 1, 3-dipolar addition reaction, the nitrite group of the indolizine product was not hydrated and compounds 7 were obtained as final products. Both procedures utilize convenient conditions and inexpensive reagents, and give products in good to high yields.
