Monodentate Transient Directing Group Enabled Pd-Catalyzed Ortho-C-H Methoxylation and Chlorination of Benzaldehydes

We report Pd-catalyzed ortho-C-H methoxylation and chlorination of benzaldehydes by employing monodentate transient directing groups (TDGs) as an alternative strategy to bidentate TDGs. More importantly, a single crystal of benzaldehyde imine ortho-cyclopalladium intermediate was successfully obtained, and its structure was unambiguously determined by X-ray diffraction, which clearly showed that it was a binuclear palladium species bridged by a pyridone ligand. The utility of this approach was further demonstrated through the synthesis of key intermediates of natural products and drugs.

Synthesis and antiprotozoal activity of dicationic 3,5-diphenylisoxazoles

Novel dicationic 3,5-diphenylisoxazole compounds are described. Synthetic routes to these novel compounds are provided. Several of the compounds displayed in vitro activity versus Trypanosoma brucei brucei and Plasmodium falciparum comparable to that of furamidine. A majority of the novel compounds also were less toxic to VERO cells than furamidine.
