- A metal-free direct C (sp3)-H cyanation reaction with cyanobenziodoxolones
-
A metal-free protocol of direct C(sp3)-H cyanation with cyanobenziodoxolones functioning as both cyanating reagents and oxidants was developed. Unactivated substrates, such as alkanes, ethers and tertiary amines, were thereby transformed to the corresponding nitriles in moderate to high yields. Mechanistic studies indicated that the cyanation proceeded with two potential pathways, which is highly dependent on the substrates: (1) a free radical case for alkanes and ethers and (2) an oxidative case for tertiary amines.

- A mineralogically-inspired silver-bismuth hybrid material: An efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the direct synthesis of nitriles from terminal alkynes
-
The synthesis and characterization of a silver-containing hybrid material is reported as a novel heterogeneous noble metal catalyst. In order to eliminate the need for traditional immobilization techniques, and to create a solid material with structurally-bound silver catalytic centers, the layered structure of a naturally occurring mineral served as the basis of the initial catalyst design. The novel material was prepared by means of the urea-mediated homogeneous precipitation of the corresponding metal nitrates, and was fully characterized by means of diverse instrumental techniques (X-ray diffractometry, Raman, IR, UV-Vis, EPR, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, thermal methods as well as atomic force, scanning and transmission electron microscopies). The as-prepared material exhibited outstanding activity in silver-catalyzed CC bond activation to yield organic nitriles directly from terminal alkynes with less environmental concerns as compared to the classical synthesis methods. The effects of the reaction time, the temperature, as well as the role of various solvents, nitrogen sources and additives were carefully scrutinized in order to achieve high-yielding and selective nitrile formation. The heterogeneous nature of the reaction was verified and the solid catalyst was recycled and reused numerous times without loss of its activity or degradation of its structure, thereby offering a sustainable synthetic methodology.

- "Nanorust"-catalyzed benign oxidation of amines for selective synthesis of nitriles
-
Organic nitriles constitute key precursors and central intermediates in organic synthesis. In addition, nitriles represent a versatile motif found in numerous medicinally and biologically important compounds. Generally, these nitriles are synthesized by traditional cyanation procedures using toxic cyanides. Herein, we report the selective and environmentally benign oxidative conversion of primary amines for the synthesis of structurally diverse aromatic, aliphatic and heterocyclic nitriles using a reusable "nanorust" (nanoscale Fe2O3)-based catalysts applying molecular oxygen.

- Combinatorial synthesis and in vitro evaluation of a biaryl hydroxyketone library as antivirulence agents against mrsa
-
Antibiotic resistance coupled with decreased development of new antibiotics necessitates the search for novel antibacterial agents. Antivirulence agents offer an alternative to conventional antibiotics. In this work, we report on a family of small-molecule antivirulence agents against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), the most widespread bacterial pathogen. Structure-activity relationship studies led to the development of a concise synthesis of a 148-member biarylhydroxyketone library. An acylation bond-forming process afforded resorcinols (1) and aryloxy acetonitriles (2) as synthons. A Lewis-acid-activated Friedel-Crafts' acylation step involving a nitrile functionality of 2 by ZnCl2, followed by nucleophilic attack by 1 was executed to obtain biaryl hydroxyketones in excellent yields. A large number of products crystallized. This strategy affords a range of biarylhydroxyketones in a single step. This is the first collective synthetic study documenting access to this class of compounds through a single synthetic operation. In vitro efficacy of compounds in this library was evaluated by a rabbit erythrocyte hemolysis assay. The most efficacious compound, 4f-12, inhibits hemolysis by 98.1 ± 0.1% compared to control in the absence of the compound.

- Nonconventional versus conventional application of pseudo-first-order kinetics to fundamental organic reactions
-
Three new analysis procedures for pseudo-first-order kinetics are introduced and applied to eight different fundamental organic reactions. The reactions belong to the following classes: nitroalkane proton transfer, formal hydride ion transfers from NADH model compounds, and SN2 reactions of alkyl halides with ionic and neutral nucleophiles. The three methods consist of (1) half-life dependence of kapp, (2) sequential linear pseudo-first-order correlation, and (3) revised instantaneous rate constant analysis. Each of the three procedures is capable of distinguishing between one- and multistep mechanisms, and the combination of the three procedures provides a powerful strategy for differentiating between the two mechanistic possibilities. The data from the eight reactions chosen as examples clearly show how the procedures work in practice.

- Mechanistic Studies on Dopamine β-Monooxygenase Catalysis: N-Dealkylation and Mechanism-Based Inhibition by Benzylic-Nitrogen-Containing Compounds. Evidence for a Single-Electron-Transfer Mechanism
-
Dopamine β-monooxygenase (DBM) readily catalyzes oxidative N-dealkylation of N-phenylethylenediamine (PEDA) and N-methyl-N-phenylethylenediamine (N-MePEDA) with the reaction characteriscics expected for a monooxygenase-catalyzed process.The products of this reaction have been quantitatively identified as aniline (or N-methylaniline for N-MePEDA) and 2-aminoacetaldehyde, the latter compound being successfully trapped by using NaBH4 reduction followed by N-succinimidyl p-nitriphenylacetate (SNPA) derivatization, and identified by HPLC and mass spectroscopy.In contrast, either analogues of PEDA, i.e. phenyl 2-aminoethyl ether (PAEE) and its p-hydroxy derivative (p-OHPAEE), as well as 2-phenoxycycloprpylamine are not substrates but are competitive inhibitors.Furthermore, 2-methyl-2-anilino-1-aminoethane (β-MePEDA) did not exhibit measurable substrate activity with DBM, in contrast to the excellent substrate activity of the sulfur analogue of β-MePEDA, 2-methyl-2-(phenylthio)-1-aminoethane (β-MePAES).DBM is inactivated during the N-dealkylation reaction in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, a phenomenon that has not, to our knowledge, been observed for any other oxygenase-catalyzed N-dealkylation reaction.Both PEDA and N-MePEDA, as well as β-MePEDA, inactivate DBM under turnover conditions.The inactivation exhibited pseudo-first-order saturable kinetics and expected protection by the DBM substrate, tyramine.No reappearance of enzyme activity was observed after extensive dialysis.Radioactive labeling experiments with ring-tritiated PEDA showed incorporation of nondialyzable radioactivity into DBM in the expected amount, consistent with covalent attachment of a reactive species derivd from PEDA to the DBM active site during enzyme inactivation.Although aniline, N-ethylaniline, N-(2-fluoroethyl)aniline, m- and p-anisidine, p-toluidine, and 5-hydroxyindole were found not to exhibit detectable DBM substrate activity, all of these inactivated the enzyme under turnover conditions.The isotope effect on partition ratio measured for dideuteriated PEDA was found to be a reflection of an isotope effect on Vmax and not on kinact.Our results provide a strong support for the conclusion that the initial nitrogen cation radical species is responsible for enzyme inactivation.Results with ring-deuteriated and ring-tritiated PEDA revealed that the amount of radioactivity incorporated into covalently inactivated DBM by ring-tritiated PEDA is in agreement with that expected for covalent attachment of the para carbon to the protein.An 18O labeling study was carried out to test for oxygen rebound into the aminoacetaldehyde product, and results demonstrated that the aldehyde oxygen of enzymatically produced 2-aminoacetaldehyde exchanges very rapidly with solvent water, in agreement with literature reports.On the basis ...
