A practical and general iron-catalyzed domino decarboxylation-oxidation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids enabling aldehyde C-H methylation for the synthesis of methyl ketones has been developed. This mild, operationally simple method uses ambient air as the sole oxidant and tolerates sensitive functional groups for the late-stage functionalization of complex natural-product-derived and polyfunctionalized molecules.

Background: Acetylcholine deficiencies in hippocampus and cortex, aggregation of β-amyloid, and β-secretase over activity have been introduced as main reasons in pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. Methods: Colorimetric Ellman’s method was used for determination of IC50 value in AChE and BChE inhibitory activity. The kinetic studies, neuroprotective and β-secretase inhibitory activities, evaluation of inhibitory potency on β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregations induced by AChE, and docking study were performed for prediction of the mechanism of action. Result and discussion: A new series of cinnamic acids-tryptamine hybrid was designed, synthesized, and evaluated as dual cholinesterase inhibitors. These compounds demonstrated in-vitro inhibitory activities against acetyl cholinesterase (AChE) and butyryl cholinesterase (BChE). Among of these synthesized compounds, (E)-N-(2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl)-3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acrylamide (5q) demonstrated the most potent AChE inhibitory activity (IC50 = 11.51?μM) and (E)-N-(2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl)-3-(2-chlorophenyl)acrylamide (5b) were the best anti-BChE (IC50 = 1.95?μM) compounds. In addition, the molecular modeling and kinetic studies depicted 5q and 5b were mixed type inhibitor and bound with both the peripheral anionic site (PAS) and catalytic sites (CAS) of AChE and BChE. Moreover, compound 5q showed mild neuroprotective in PC12 cell line and weak β-secretase inhibitory activities. This compound also inhibited aggregation of β-amyloid (Aβ) in self-induced peptide aggregation test at concentration of 10?μM. Conclusion: It is worth noting that both the kinetic study and the molecular modeling of 5q and 5b depicted that these compounds simultaneously interacted with both the catalytic active site and the peripheral anionic site of AChE and BChE. These findings match with those resulted data from the enzyme inhibition assay. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Co-catalysis over a tri-functional ligand modified Pd-catalyst for hydroxycarbonylation of terminal alkynes towards α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids

An amphiphilic tri-functional ligand (L1) containing a Lewis acidic phosphonium cation, a phosphino-fragment and a hydrophilic sulfonate anion (-SO3-) enabled Pd(OAc)2 to efficiently co-catalyze the hydroxycarbonylation of terminal alkynes towards α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids. These incorporated functional groups synergistically promoted the reaction, which proved more effective than the ligands lacking -SO3- and/or phosphonium and the mechanical mixtures of the individual functional groups independently. The molecular structure of Pd-L1 indicated that -SO3- in L1 served as a secondary O-donor ligand with reversible coordinating ability, cooperating with the phosphino-fragment to stabilize the Pd-catalyst. The in situ FT-IR analysis verified that the formation and stability of Pd-H active species in charge of hydroxycarbonylation were dramatically facilitated by the presence of L1. It was believed that, over the L1-based Pd-catalyst, H2O was cooperatively activated by the Lewis acidic phosphonium via "acid-base pair" interaction (H2O → P(v)+) and by the hydrophilic SO3-via hydrogen bonding (SO3-?H2O), giving rise to the formation of dimeric and mono-nuclear Pd-H species driven by reversible SO3--coordination. In addition, the L1-based Pd-catalyst could be immobilized in the ionic liquid [Bmim]NTf2 for six-run recycling uses without obvious activity loss and detectable metal leaching.

A palladium-catalyzed carbonylative transformation of organic halides with formic acid as the coupling partner to produce carboxylic acids has been developed. With a catalytic amount of DCC as the activator of formic acid, the process can be realized successfully through benzoic formic anhydride as the intermediate. Both vinyl and aryl (pseudo)halides were conveniently transformed into the corresponding acids in good yields.

Maleic anhydride was explored as a substitute for acrylic acid to synthesize cinnamic acids from aryl halides under heterogeneous palladium catalyzed conditions. The combined role of surface and impregnated catalyst together performed an upright engineering to hold in situ generated molecules on the surface and subsequently facilitate their interaction for the desired product synthesis. Overall, a surface mediated approach for cinnamic acid synthesis from maleic anhydride following a major unexplored pathway through catalyst promoted decarboxylation was critically investigated.

An enzymatic strategy for the preparation of (R)-β-arylalanines employing phenylalanine aminomutase and ammonia lyase (PAM and PAL) enzymes has been demonstrated. Candidate PAMs with the desired (S)-selectivity from Streptomyces maritimus (EncP) and Bacillus sp. (PabH) were identified via sequence analysis using a well-studied template sequence. The newly discovered PabH could be linked to the first ever proposed biosynthesis of pyloricidin-like secondary metabolites and was shown to display better β-lyase activity in many cases. In spite of this, a method combining the higher conversion of EncP with a strict α-lyase from Anabaena variabilis (AvPAL) was found to be more amenable, allowing kinetic resolution of five racemic substrates and a preparative-scale reaction with >98% (R) enantiomeric excess. This work represents an improved and enantiocomplementary method to existing biocatalytic strategies, allowing simple product separation and modular telescopic combination with a preceding chemical step using an achiral aldehyde as starting material.

Cooperative photoredox and cobalt catalyzed carboxylation of styrenes with CBr4 to afford the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids has been realized through radical addition and Kornblum (DMSO) oxidation.
