- A practical synthesis of α-bromo/iodo/chloroketones from olefins under visible-light irradiation conditions
-
A practical synthesis of α-bromo/iodo/chloroketones from olefins under visible-light irradiation conditions has been developed. In the presence of PhI(OAc)2 as promoter and under ambient conditions, the reactions of styrenes and triiodomethane undergo the transformation smoothly to deliver the corresponding α-iodoketones without additional photocatalyst in good yields under sunlight irradiation. Meanwhile, the reactions of styrenes with tribromomethane and trichloromethane generate the desired α-bromoketones and α-chloroketones in high yields by using Ru(bpy)3Cl2 as a photocatalyst under blue LED (450–455 nm) irradiation.

Reported herein is the electrochemical engendering of chlorine radicals by a manganese catalyst with a controllable pattern, and inexpensive MgCl2 as the chlorine source. In combination with the oxygen reduction reaction, chloroacetophenones were synthesized with abundant styrene as the feedstock in good to excellent yields.

- CV-driven Optimization: Cobalt-Catalyzed Electrochemical Expedient Oxychlorination of Alkenes via ORR
-
Instead of screening reaction conditions by yield-based chemical trial-and-error, potential-based cyclic voltammetry was alternatively employed for optimization of electrochemical oxychlorination of alkenes. With this unconventional screening method, the catalyst system including catalysts, molar ratio of chloride sources and solvents were identified in a rational, time- and energy-efficient manner. The optimal catalytic system in combination with oxygen reduction reaction enabled broad substrate scopes for the desired transformation by taking advantages of persistent radical effect. UV-vis and CV titration experiments confirmed the in-situ formed catalytic species [CoCl5]. Moreover, cyclic voltammetry was applied to obtain mechanistic insights in our reaction system. (Figure presented.).

- Discovery of Potent and Selective Leads against Toxoplasma gondii Dihydrofolate Reductase via Structure-Based Design
-
Current treatment of toxoplasmosis targets the parasite’s folate metabolism through inhibition of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). The most widely used DHFR antagonist, pyrimethamine, was introduced over 60 years ago and is associated with toxicity that can be largely attributed to a similar affinity for parasite and human DHFR. Computational analysis of biochemical differences between Toxoplasma gondii and human DHFR enabled the design of inhibitors with both improved potency and selectivity. The approach described herein yielded TRC-19, a promising lead with an IC50 of 9 nM and 89-fold selectivity in favor of Toxoplasma gondii DHFR, as well as crystallographic data to substantiate in silico methodology. Overall, 50% of synthesized in silico designs met hit threshold criteria of IC50 2-fold selectivity favoring Toxoplasma gondii, further demonstrating the efficiency of our structure-based drug design approach.

- Novel arylalkenylpropargylamines as neuroprotective, potent, and selective monoamine oxidase B inhibitors for the treatment of Parkinson's disease
-
To develop novel neuroprotective agents, a library of novel arylalkenylpropargylamines was synthesized and tested for inhibitory activities against monoamine oxidases. From this, a number of highly potent and selective monoamine oxidase B inhibitors were identified. Selected compounds were also tested for neuroprotection in in vitro studies with PC-12 cells treated with 6-OHDA and rotenone, respectively. It was observed that some of the compounds tested yielded a marked increase in survival in PC-12 cells treated with the neurotoxins. This indicates that these propargylamines are able to confer protection against the effects of the toxins and may also be considered as novel disease-modifying anti-Parkinsonian agents, which are much needed for the therapy of Parkinson's disease.

- Experimental study on the reaction pathway of α-haloacetophenones with NaOMe: Examination of bifurcation mechanism
-
The reaction of PhCOCH2Br and NaOMe in MeOH gave PhCOCH 2OH as the major product and PhCOCH2OMe as the minor product. Substituent effects on the reactivity and product selectivity revealed that an electron-withdrawing substituent on the phenyl ring enhanced the overall reactivity and gave more alcohol than ether. It was indicated that the alcohol was formed via carbonyl addition-epoxidation, whereas the ether was formed by direct substitution. Substituent effects on the reaction rates, as well as the effects of NaOMe concentration on the rate and product ratio for both reactions of PhCOCH2Br and PhCOCH2CI are in line with the mechanism that the alcohol and ether products were formed via two independent and concurrent routes, carbonyl addition and a-carbon attack, respectively, and thus the reaction mechanism could be different from the bifurcation mechanism previously predicted for the reaction of PhCOCH2Br by a simulation study in the gas phase.

- Purification and characterization of a yeast carbonyl reductase for synthesis of optically active (R)-styrene oxide derivatives
-
Optically active styrene oxide derivatives are versatile chiral building blocks. Stereoselective reduction of phenacyl halide to chiral 2-halo-1-phenylethanol is the key reaction of the most economical synthetic route. Rhodotorula glutinis var. dairenensis IFO415 was discovered on screening as a potent microorganism reducing a phenacyl halide to the (R)-form of the corresponding alcohol. An NADPH-dependent carbonyl reductase was purified to homogeneity through four steps from this strain. The relative molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated to be 40,000 on gel filtration and 30,000 on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This enzyme reduced a broad range of carbonyl compounds in addition to phenacyl halides. Some properties of the enzyme and preparation of a chiral styrene oxide using the crude enzyme are reported herein.
