The inhibition of urease from Sporosarcina pasteurii (SPU) and Canavalia ensiformis (jack bean, JBU) by a class of six aromatic poly-hydroxylated molecules, namely mono- and dimethyl-substituted catechols, was investigated on the basis of the inhibitory efficiency of the catechol scaffold. The aim was to probe the key step of a mechanism proposed for the inhibition of SPU by catechol, namely the sulfanyl radical attack on the aromatic ring, as well as to obtain critical information on the effect of substituents of the catechol aromatic ring on the inhibition efficacy of its derivatives. The crystal structures of all six SPU-inhibitors complexes, determined at high resolution, as well as kinetic data obtained on JBU and theoretical studies of the reaction mechanism using quantum mechanical calculations, revealed the occurrence of an irreversible inactivation of urease by means of a radical-based autocatalytic multistep mechanism, and indicate that, among all tested catechols, the mono-substituted 3-methyl-catechol is the most efficient inhibitor for urease.
One-Pot Synthesis of Functionalized Fused Furans via a BODIPY-Catalyzed Domino Photooxygenation

Six-membered ring fused furans containing a tetrasubstituted tertiary carbon were prepared in an unprecedented one-pot BODIPY-catalyzed domino photooxygenation/reduction process. A series of functionalized furans was synthesized from readily available 2-alkenylphenols and mechanistic studies were performed to account for the domino photosensitized oxygenation.
Pd-Catalyzed Ortho C-H Hydroxylation of Benzaldehydes Using a Transient Directing Group

supporting information, p. 6280 - 6283 (2017/12/08)
The direct Pd-catalyzed ortho C-H hydroxylation of benzaldehydes was achieved using 4-chloroanthranilic acid as the transient directing group, 1-fluoro-2,4,6-trimethylpyridnium triflate as the bystanding oxidant, and p-toluenesulfonic acid as the putative oxygen nucleophile. The unusual C-H chlorination and polyfluoroalkoxylation reactions signaled the importance of external nucleophiles to the outcome of Pd(IV) reductive eliminations.

, (2008/06/13)
Process for preparing hydroxybenzaldehydes of the formula (1) STR1 in which R1 -R4 are hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, alkyl, alkoxy, phenyl, naphthyl, phenylalkyl, naphthylalkyl, phenoxy or saturated or unsaturated cyclopentane or cyclohexane radicals, and R1 -R4 may with the hydroxybenzene ring carbon atoms on which they are located form 1 or 2 saturated or unsaturated isocyclic or heterocyclic rings, by admixing 1 mol of a phenol of the formula (2) STR2 in which R1 -R4 have the stated meanings, in a pressure vessel with from 5 to 100 mol of hydrogen fluoride and from 0.5+x to 1.5+x mol of boron trifluoride, where x is the number of oxygen atoms contained in the starting compound (formula (2)), setting the mixture to from -10° to 100° C. and then passing carbon monoxide into this mixture until a pressure of from 10 to 150 bar is reached and allowing the mixture to react at the desired pressure reached.
Quinone Dehydrogenation. Oxidation of Benzylic Alcohols with 2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone

, p. 1596 - 1600 (2007/10/02)
2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) reacts with primary and secondary aryl-substituted alcohols under mild conditions in dioxane solution to give the corresponding carbonyl compounds in high yields.In contrast to other oxidants, DDQ can be applied advantageously for the oxidation of hydroxyaryl-substituted alcohols.A mechanism involving participation of the phenolic hydroxyl group in the dehydrogenation reaction is discussed.Oxidations of hydroxyaryl-substituted alcohols by DDQ in methanolsolution resulting in the formation of benzoquinones by loss of the hydroxyaryl side chain are interpreted in terms of phenol oxidation.An example of a pyridine-catalyzed Smiles rearrangement of an o-hydroxy-substituted diphenyl ether is reported.
