A Cyanide-Free Synthesis of Acylcyanides through Ru-Catalyzed C(sp3)-H-Oxidation of Benzylic Nitriles

A practical method for generation of acylcyanides devoid of any external cyanide sources is presented that relies on a mild Ru-catalyzed selective C?H-oxidation of benzylic nitriles. The starting materials are smoothly generated through condensation of the corresponding carboxylic acid amides using silanes. The obtained acylcyanides can be employed in a plethora of transformation as exemplified to some larger extend in the sequence of C?H-oxidation-Tischenko-rearrangement for the generation of structurally diverse benzoyloxycyanohydrines.

Synthesis, antibacterial activity, and docking studies of some new 2-substituted-1,8-naphthyridine derivatives

1,8-Naphthyridine derivatives play a very important role in the field of medicinal chemistry. 2 series of novel 2-substituted-1,8-naphthyridine derivatives (10a-10k and 15a-15e) were synthesized. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR),13C NMR, mass, and IR spectral analysis. Further, these compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activity. Docking studies for these title compounds are also presented in this communication.

Metal-free carbonylations by photoredox catalysis

The synthesis of benzoates from aryl electrophiles and carbon monoxide is a prime example of a transition-metalcatalyzed carbonylation reaction which is widely applied in research and industrial processes. Such reactions proceed in the presence of Pd or Ni catalysts, suitable ligands, and stoichiometric bases. We have developed an alternative procedure that is free of any metal, ligand, and base. The method involves a redox reaction driven by visible light and catalyzed by eosin Y which affords alkyl benzoates from arene diazonium salts, carbon monoxide, and alcohols under mild conditions. Tertiary esters can also be prepared in high yields. DFT calculations and radical trapping experiments support a catalytic photoredox pathway without the requirement for sacrificial redox partners.

Transition-metal-free alkoxycarbonylation of aryl halides

Transitions: The title reaction has been developed for the synthesis of a variety of tert-butyl benzoates by employing 1,10-phenanthroline as an additive. Various functional groups were tolerated and heteroaryl iodides were also suitable substrates. Preli

A flow microreactor system enables organolithium reactions without protecting alkoxycarbonyl groups

A flow microreactor system consisting of micromixers and microtube reactors provides an effective tool for the generation and reactions of aryllithiums bearing an alkoxycarbonyl group at para-, meta-, and ortho-positions. Alkyl p- and m-lithiobenzoates were generated by the I/Li exchange reaction with PhLi. The Br/Li exchange reactions with sBuLi were unsuccessful. Subsequent reactions of the resulting aryllithiums with electrophiles gave the desired products in good yields. On the other hand, alkyl o-lithiobenzoates were successfully generated by the Br/ Li exchange reaction with sBuLi. Subsequent reactions with electrophiles gave the desired products in good yields.

Parallel synthesis of glycomimetic libraries: targeting a C-type lectin.

We have developed methods for the parallel synthesis of two libraries of non-carbohydrate-based analogues of mannose on a solid support. The natural product shikimic acid was used as a key building block. The ability of the compounds to block the binding of the C-type lectin MBP-A to a mannosylated surface was assessed in a high-throughput assay. Ten library members with inhibitory activities equivalent to that of alpha-methyl mannopyranoside were identified. [reaction: see text]
