- An aerobic oxidation of alcohols into carbonyl synthons using bipyridyl-cinchona based palladium catalyst
-
We have reported an aerobic oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to respective aldehydes and ketones using a bipyridyl-cinchona alkaloid based palladium catalytic system (PdAc-5) using oxygen at moderate pressure. ThePdAc-5catalyst was analysed using SEM, EDAX, and XPS analysis. The above catalytic system is used in experiments for different oxidation systems which include different solvents, additives, and bases which are cheap, robust, non-toxic, and commercially available on the industrial bench. The obtained products are quite appreciable in both yield and selectivity (70-85%). In addition, numerous important studies, such as comparisons with various commercial catalysts, solvent systems, mixture of solvents, and catalyst mole%, were conducted usingPdAc-5. The synthetic strategy of oxidation of alcohol into carbonyl compounds was well established and all the products were analysed using1H NMR,13CNMR and GC-mass analyses.

- The Hydrazine–O2 Redox Couple as a Platform for Organocatalytic Oxidation: Benzo[c]cinnoline-Catalyzed Oxidation of Alkyl Halides to Aldehydes
-
An organocatalytic oxidation platform that capitalizes on the capacity of hydrazines to undergo rapid autoxidation to diazenes is described. Commercially available benzo[c]cinnoline is shown to catalyze the oxidation of alkyl halides to aldehydes in a novel mechanistic paradigm involving nucleophilic attack, prototropic shift, and hydrolysis. The hydrolysis and reoxidation events occur readily with only adventitious oxygen and water. A survey of the scope of viable substrates is shown along with mechanistic and computational studies that give insight into this mode of catalysis.

- Preparation and Characterization of a Small Library of Thermally-Labile End-Caps for Variable-Temperature Triggering of Self-Immolative Polymers
-
The reaction between furans and maleimides has increasingly become a method of interest as its reversibility makes it a useful tool for applications ranging from self-healing materials, to self-immolative polymers, to hydrogels for cell culture and for the preparation of bone repair. However, most of these applications have relied on simple monosubstituted furans and simple maleimides and have not extensively evaluated the potential thermal variability inherent in the process that is achievable through simple substrate modification. A small library of cycloadducts suitable for the above applications was prepared, and the temperature dependence of the retro-Diels-Alder processes was determined through in situ 1H NMR analyses complemented by computational calculations. The practical range of the reported systems ranges from 40 to >110 °C. The cycloreversion reactions are more complex than would be expected based on simple trends expected based on frontier molecular orbital analyses of the materials.

- Process for removing nifuratel cyclization impurities
-
The invention relates to nifuratel, in particular to a process for removing nifuratel cyclization impurities. The process for removing the nifuratel cyclization impurities comprises the step of preparing a hydrazinolysis product, namely 3-methyl thio-2-hydroxyl-propyl hydrazine and is characterized in that the 3-methyl thio-2-hydroxyl-propyl hydrazine, diethyl carbonate and sodium methoxide are mixed, then cyclized and filtered to obtain cyclization mother liquor, and the cyclization mother liquor is subjected to adsorption treatment through a macro-porous resin packing column, then is condensed with 5-nitro furfural and is re-crystallized to obtain nifuratel. The process provided by the invention has the beneficial effects that through performing treatment on the cyclization mother liquorthrough the macro-porous resin packing column, a cyclized product is completely separated from cyclized impurities and other impurities. The invention overcomes the defect that an existing process cannot completely remove the cyclized impurities and the other impurities and finds a simple, effective, safe and environment-friendly method suitable for industrialization.

- Dehydrogenation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to diformylfuran in compressed carbon dioxide: An oxidant free approach
-
The dehydrogenation of biomass-based 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) was achieved utilizing an activated carbon supported rhodium (Rh/C) catalyst under mild reaction conditions. The developed method successfully afforded complete conversion and the highest selectivity of DFF (>99%) without any additive, conventional hydrogen acceptor and oxidant. The efficiency of the method is achieved by the addition of compressed carbon dioxide (scCO2) and the synergistic effect of scCO2 and Rh/C, where scCO2 plays a pivotal role in accelerating the reaction by removing hydrogen, and consequently shifting the equilibrium to the forward direction. Optimization of different reaction parameters ensures the achievement of high conversion and selectivity. Characterization of the catalyst using different spectroscopic techniques suggests an interaction between the substrate and the catalyst and provides an indication of the possible reaction pathway, thus a mechanism would be outlined. The rate determining step of the reaction was calculated through mechanistic investigations involving theoretical calculations together with experimental analysis. One of the most attractive features of the method developed in this study is the reverse reaction of DFF, which can be achieved in one-pot without the addition of any external hydrogen. This process has successful application to the dehydrogenation of a variety of alcohols with different substituents.

- Development of Glucose Regulated Protein 94-Selective Inhibitors Based on the BnIm and Radamide Scaffold
-
Glucose regulated protein 94 (Grp94) is the endoplasmic reticulum resident of the heat shock protein 90 kDa (Hsp90) family of molecular chaperones. Grp94 associates with many proteins involved in cell adhesion and signaling, including integrins, Toll-like receptors, immunoglobulins, and mutant myocilin. Grp94 has been implicated as a target for several therapeutic areas including glaucoma, cancer metastasis, and multiple myeloma. While 85% identical to other Hsp90 isoforms, the N-terminal ATP-binding site of Grp94 possesses a unique hydrophobic pocket that was used to design isoform-selective inhibitors. Incorporation of a cis-amide bioisostere into the radamide scaffold led to development of the original Grp94-selective inhibitor, BnIm. Structure-activity relationship studies have now been performed on the aryl side chain of BnIm, which resulted in improved analogues that exhibit better potency and selectivity for Grp94. These analogues also manifest superior antimigratory activity in a metastasis model as well as enhanced mutant myocilin degradation in a glaucoma model compared to BnIm.

A novel and efficient method for the regioselective nitration of a series of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids to their corresponding nitro compounds using nitronium tetrafluoroborate and silver carbonate in dimethylacetamide has been described. This transformation is believed to proceed via the alkyl-silver or aryl-silver intermediate, which subsequently reacts with the nitronium ion to form nitro substances. Mild reaction conditions, tolerant of a broad range of functional groups, and formation of only the ipso-nitrated products are the key features of this methodology when compared to known methods for syntheses of nitroalkyls and nitroarenes.

- IBX works efficiently under solvent free conditions in ball milling
-
IBX (2-iodoxybenzoic acid), discovered in 1893, is an oxidant in synthetic chemistry whose extensive use is impeded by its explosiveness at high temperature and poor solubility in common organic solvents except DMSO. Since the discovery of Dess-Martin Periodinane in 1983, several modified IBX systems have been reported. However, under ball milling conditions, IBX works efficiently with various organic functionalities at ambient temperature under solvent free conditions. Also, the waste IBA (2-iodosobenzoic acid) produced from the reactions was in situ oxidized to IBX in the following step using oxone and thus reused for multiple cycles by conserving its efficiency (only ~6% loss after 15 cycles). This work describes an overview of a highly economical synthetic methodology which overcomes the problems of using IBX, efficiently in gram scale and in a non-explosive way.

- Simple preparation and application of TEMPO-coated Fe3O 4 superparamagnetic nanoparticles for selective oxidation of alcohols
-
The organic oxidant TEMPO (2,2,4,4-tetramethylpiperdine-1-oxyl) was immobilized on iron oxide (Fe3O4) superparamagnetic nanoparticles by employing strong metal-oxide chelating phosphonates and azide/alkyne "click" chemistry. This simple preparation yields recyclable TEMPO-coated nanoparticles with good TEMPO loadings. They have excellent magnetic response and efficiently catalyze the oxidation of a wide range of primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes, ketones, and lactones under either aerobic acidic MnII/CuII oxidizing Minisci conditions, or basic NaOCl Anelli conditions. The nanoparticles could be recycled more than 20 times under the Minisci conditions and up to eight times under the Anelli conditions with good to excellent substrate conversions and product selectivities. Immobilization of the catalyst through a phosphonate linkage allows the particles to withstand acidic oxidizing environments with minimal catalyst leaching. Clicking TEMPO to the phosphonate prior to phosphonate immobilization, rather than after, ensures the clicked catalyst is the only species on the particle surface. This facilitates quantification of the catalyst loading. The stability of the phosphonate linker and simplicity of this catalyst immobilization method make this an attractive approach for tethering catalysts to oxide supports, creating magnetically separable catalysts that can be used under neutral or acidic conditions. Recycling to a different TEMPO: An extremely simple and economic synthesis of a recyclable 2,2,4,4-tetramethylpiperdine-1-oxyl(TEMPO)-coated superparamagnetic catalyst is described. The catalyst shows excellent performance in the rapid oxidation of primary and secondary benzylic and aliphatic alcohols by using oxygen and MnII/CuII or biphasic NaOCl/KBr conditions.

- Spontaneous dehydration mechanism of aromatic aldehyde reactions with hydroxyl and non-hydroxyl amines
-
The plot of rate constants vs. pH for the dehydration step of the reaction between furfural and 5-nitrofurfural with hydroxylamine, N-methylhydroxylamine, and O-methylhydroxylamine, shows two regions corresponding to the oxonium ion-catalyzed and spontaneous dehydration. The oxonium ion-catalyzed dehydration region of the reaction of furfural with the above mentioned hydroxylamines exhibits general acid catalysis with excellent Bronsted correlation (Bronsted coefficients: 0.76 (r = 0.986), 0.68 (r = 0.987), and 0.67 (r = 0.993) respectively). However, the rate constants of the spontaneous dehydration of these hydroxylamines, where water is considered the general acid catalyst, exhibit a large positive deviation from the Bronsted line. This fact was not observed in the reaction of non-hydroxyl amines with different aromatic aldehydes by other authors, thus supporting that the spontaneous dehydration steps for these reactions proceed by intramolecular catalysis. The mechanism of intramolecular catalysis might be stepwise. First, a zwitterionic intermediate is formed. It can then evolve in the second step by loss of water, or follow a concerted pathway, with the transference of a proton through a five-membered ring (general intramolecular acid catalysis). In the case of non-hydroxyl amines, data suggested the possibility of a mechanism of intramolecular proton transfer through one or two water molecules, from the nitrogen of the amine to the leaving hydroxide ion.

A modified two-step procedure for the preparation of 5-nitro-2-furylmethylene diacetate (3) by nitration of 2-furaldehyde (1) or 2-furylmethylene diacetate (4) with acetyl nitrate via 2-acetoxy-5-nitro-2,5-dihydro-2-furylmethylene diacetate (2), or 1,1,5-triacetoxy-2-hydroxy-5-nitro-3-penten (5) and 1,1,5-triacetoxy-2-hydroxy-5-nitro-2,4-pentadiene (6), has been developed.Acid hydrolysis of 3 yields 5-nitro-2-furaldehyde (7) which is used in the carbonylamine condensation with various hydrazines (9-11, 14, 17, 19, 21, 24, 25, 28, 29, 32, 34, 36, 38, 39, 41 and 44-54) prepared by known methods, in order to obtain some novel potentially pharmaceutically active (5-nitro-2-furyl)azomethines.

- ESR SPECTRA OF ELECTROCHEMICALLY GENERATED ANION RADICALS OF THE NITROFURAN SERIES
-
ESR spectra of anion radicals for 29 derivatives of 5-nitrofuran, elctrochemically generated in situ, have been obtained and studied.Using spectral HFS constants and quantum chemical model parameters (INDO), the structures of ?- and ?-electron systems of 2-nitrofuran and its anion radical have been investigated.Furan ring substituent effects on lone electron distribution have been investigated.On the lone electron level, transmission of substituent effects through the ring has been found to be higher in the case of furan, and lower in the case of thiophene and selenophene, with respect to the benzene ring.Delocalization of the lone electron in various ring-attached substituents has been elucidated.Kinetic studies of radical decay showed a rise in stability with increasing delocalization of the lone electron.

- Synthesis of Some Transition Metal Chelates of Furfurylidene and 5-Nitrofurfurylidene Benzoyl Hydrazones as Potential Fungicides
-
Twelve complexes of the general formulae ML2 and M'L2*2H2O, where M = Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) and M' = Mn(II), Fe(II) and Co(II) and L = Furfurylidene benzoyl hydrazone (FBHZ) or 5-Nitrofurfurylidene benzoylhydrazone (5-NFBHZ), have been synthesised and characterised.The Schiff bases coordinate through O, N atoms behaving as monobasic bidentate ligands, depending on the pH of the medium.These complexes have exhibited significant fungitoxicity against Rhixoctonia solani, the causative organism of sheath blight in rice and groundnut plants.Some of the chelates exhibited more toxicity when compared to Dithane, M-45, a commercial fungicide, screened in similar conditions.The fungitoxicity of the metal chelates was found to be in the following order Cu > Ni > Fe > Zn > Mn > Co.

- The Reaction of Aniline with 5-Nitro-2-furaldehyde. A Model for Non-Enzymic Browning Reactions
-
The condensation between 5-nitro-2-furaldehyde and aniline, a model for food browning reactions, yields the corresponding Schiff base, 5-nitro-2-furfurylideneaniline, cleanly.The corresponding reaction with 2-furaldehyde itself yields, in contrast, a mixture of products.Since the equilibrium constant for formation of the Schiff base from 5-nitro-2-furaldehyde and aniline, 177 dm3mol-1, is not large enough to drive the reaction to completion at moderate concentrations of aniline, phenylhydrazine was employed to trap the Schiff base as it was formed: that is, the reaction with aniline was studied by examining aniline-catalysed phenylhydrazone formation.

- THE CONVERSION OF 5-NITROFURFURYL DERIVATIVES INTO 5-AMINOFURFURYLIDENEMALONODINITRILE
-
The reaction of 5-nitrofurfuryl bromide or 5-nitrofurfuryl iodide with sodium azide and malonodinitrile afforded 5-aminofurfurylidenemalonodinitrile.The intermediate of the reaction is 5-nitrofurfuryl azide which decomposes to give 5-nitrofurfurylideneamine.Its reaction with malonodinitrile gives 5-nitrofurfurylidenemalonodinitrile which react further with sodium azide and malonodinitrile to give 5-aminofurfurylidenemalonodinitrile.

- βLactam antibiotics and process for their use
-
6-[α-(Imidazolidin-2-on-1-ylcarbonylamino)-substutited acetamido]penicillanic acids, and the correspondingly 7-substituted ceph-3-em-4-carboxylic acids, characterized by the presence of a methyleneamino or substituted methyleneamino group on the 3-nitrogen atom of the imidazolidine ring are antibacterial agents. The compounds, of which 6-[α-(3-benzaliminoimidazolidin-2-on-1-ylcarbonylamino)cyclohexa-1,4-dien-1-ylacetamido]penicillanic acid and 7-[α-(3-furylideneaminoimidazolidin-2-on-1-ylcarbonylamino)phenylacetamido]-3-(3-methylthiadiazol-5-ylthiomethyl)ceph-3-em-4-carboxylic acid are typical examples, are prepared through acylation of an 6-[α-(amino)substituted acetamido]penicillanic acid or the corresponding 7-[α-(amino)substituted acetamido]ceph-3-em-4-carboxylic acid with a reactive nucleofugic derivative of a 3-methyleneaminoimidazolidin-2-on-1-carboxylic acid.

- Synthesis and quantitative structure-activity relationships of antibacterial 1-(substituted benzhydryl)-4-(5-nitro-2- furfurylideneamino)piperazines
-
1-Benzhydryl-4-(5-nitro-2-furfurylideneamino)piperazine and 11 substituted analogs were prepared and examined for in vitro antimicrobial activity. The compounds were active against Bacillus cereus 7, Bacillus megaterium 122, Bacillus subtilis 104, Clostridium perfringens 13, and the tetracycline-resistant Clostridium perfringens 37. Regression analyses on the antibacterial activity data based on the Hansch approach, using π, π2, and σ parameters, yielded several statistically significant correlation equations. 1-Benzhydryl-4-(5-nitro-2-furfurylideneamino)piperazine stopped the protein and DNA syntheses in C. perfringens 13, as indicated by precipitable radioactivity. The compound, however, showed no effect on the cell wall synthesis in the bacteria.
