STUDIES IN TRIFLUOROMETHANESULPHONIC ACID-IV KINETICS AND MECHANISM OF ACYLATION OF AROMATIC COMPOUNDS

, p. 137 - 142 (1983)
A detailed kinetic study has been made of acylation reactions in solvent trifluoromethane sulphonic acid (CF3SO3H) using carboxylic acids as the electrophilic species involved.These species were shown to be probably the protonated form of the mixed anhydride.The reactions show high substrate selectivity characterised by high negative values of p+.Substituents in the carboxylic acids have a relatively small influence on the reactions rates due to a cancellation of substituents effects on the protonation of the mixed anhydride with those operating on the subsequent slow reaction of these species with the aromatic substrate.Anomalous effects were found for certain ortho substituents.The overall mechanism is discussed in terms of polar and steric effects in conjunction with the competing protonation of the aromatic bases, together with evidence from isotope effects.
Ni/Ti Dual Catalytic Cross-Coupling of Nitriles and Organobromides to Access Ketones

Herein, we report the development of a dual catalytic approach for the cross-coupling of nitriles with aryl- and aliphatic-bromides. A titanium(III) catalyst is used to activate nitriles enabling their coupling with organobromides through a nickel catalyst. The Ni/Ti system efficiently prepared unsymmetrical ketones with good chemoselectivity and could selectively couple a bromide in the presence of other functionalizable handles.

A small library of 36 functionalized benzophenone thiosemicarbazone analogs has been prepared by chemical synthesis and evaluated for their ability to inhibit the cysteine proteases cathepsin L and cathepsin B. Inhibitors of cathepsins L and B have the potential to limit or arrest cancer metastasis. The six most active inhibitors of cathepsin L (IC50 50 > 10,000 nM). The most active analog in the series, 3-bromophenyl-2′-fluorophenyl thiosemicarbazone 1, also efficiently inhibits cell invasion of the DU-145 human prostate cancer cell line.
