Research has indicated that N-myristoyl transferase, an enzyme that catalyzes the addition of a myristate group to the N-terminal glycine residues of proteins, is involved in the myristoylation of more than 100 proteins. Genetic knockdown of the enzyme proved detrimental for the viability of the parasite P. knowlesi. A crystal structure of P. vivax N-myristoyl transferase (pvNMT), containing a 3-methyl benzofuran ligand has made it possible to assess key amino acid residue-ligand interactions. We synthesized five libraries of 6,5-fused heterocycles to establish the importance of the heterocycles as core scaffolds, as well as introduced various aromatic amides and esters to determine which carbonylic group affects the potency of each heterocyclic antiplasmodial agent.
Azodicarbonyl dimorpholide (ADDM): An effective, versatile, and water-soluble Mitsunobu reagent

One of the caveats of the Mitsunobu reaction is the often difficult and laborious purification of the reaction mixture. Herein, we show that azodicarbonyl dimorpholide (ADDM) is an effective and versatile Mitsunobu reagent, which, along with its reduced form ADDM-H2, may be removed from the reaction mixture by a simple aqueous extraction. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the isolated ADDM-H2 may be re-oxidized with silver(I) oxide to regenerate ADDM. Finally, a chromatography-free Mitsunobu reaction is presented.

The invention concerns new 1-tert.-alkyl-thiohydrazine-1,2-dicarboxylic a derivatives, their production, and their use as reagents for the transfer of a 1-tert.-alkylthio residue, particularly of a 1-tert.-butylthio residue as a protective group for thiols.
