Purification Methods

Dissolve the ketone in pet ether (b 30-60o), wash it with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, dry over Drierite and fractionate in a vacuum. It gives a violet colour with ethanolic FeCl3 and is only slowly hydrolysed by 10% aqueous KOH but rapidly on boiling to yield 6-oxoheptanoic acid. [Manyik et al. J Am Chem Soc 75 5030 1953, Acheson J Chem Soc 4232 1956, UV: Martin & Frenelius J Am Chem Soc 81 2342 1959.] It gives a gray green Cu salt from Et2O/pentane, m 237-238o [House & Wasson J Am Chem Soc 79 1488 1957].

Keto-enol/enolate equilibria in the 2-acetylcyclopentanone system. An unusual reaction mechanism in enol nitrosation

The keto-enol equilibrium of 2-acetylcyclopentanone (ACPE) was studied in water by analysing the effect that aqueous micellar solutions produce in the UV absorption spectrum of this compound. Aqueous solutions of anionic, cationic, or nonionic surfactants forming micelles have been used. The quantitative treatment of absorbance changes measured at the maximum absorption wavelength as a function of surfactant concentration gave the keto-enol equilibrium constant, KE. In the same sense, the analysis of spectral changes measured as a function of pH in aqueous basic media allowed us to determine the acidity equilibrium constant, Ka. The combination of both equilibrium constants gives the acidity constant of the enol ionizing as an oxygen acid, pKaE = 7.72 and the acidity constant of the ketone ionizing as a carbon acid, pKaK = 8.12. The kinetic study of the nitrosation reaction of ACPE has been realized in aqueous strong acid media under several experimental conditions. As expected, the reaction is first-order with respect to ACPE concentration, but in sharp contrast to other β-dicarbonyl compounds, the dependence of both [H+] or [X-] (X- = Cl-, Br-, or SCN-) is not simple first-order; instead a fractional order which varied from 1 to 0 was observed. The kinetic interpretation of these experimental facts has been done on the basis of a reaction mechanism that considers the formation of an intermediate in steady-state, which has been postulated as a chelate-nitrosyl complex. The quantitative treatment of the experimental data gave the values of every rate constant appearing in the proposed reaction mechanism.

Discovery of quinolone derivatives as antimycobacterial agents

Tuberculosis (TB), an infectious disease caused byMycobacterium tuberculosis(M. tuberculosis), is an important public health issue. Current first-line drugs administered to TB patients have been in use for over 40 years, whereas second-line drugs display strong side effects and poor compliance. Additionally, designing effective regimens to treat patients infected with multi- and extremely-drug-resistant (MDR and XDR) strains of TB is challenging. In this report, we screened our compound library and identified compound1with antituberculosis activity and a minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) againstM. tuberculosisof 20 μg mL?1. Structure optimization and the structure-activity relationship of1as the lead compound enabled the design and synthesis of a series of quinolone derivatives,6a1-6a2,6b1-6b36,6c1,6d1-6d14,7a1-7a2,7b1-7b2,7c1,8a1-8a5,9a1-9a4and10a1-10a6. These compounds were evaluatedin vitrofor anti-tubercular activity against theM. tuberculosisH37Rv strain. Among them, compounds6b6,6b12and6b21exhibited MIC values in the range of 1.2-3 μg mL?1and showed excellent activity against the tested MDR-TB strain (MIC: 3, 2.9 and 0.9 μg mL?1, respectively). All three compounds were non-toxic toward A549 and Vero cells (>100 and >50 μg mL?1, respectively). In addition, an antibacterial spectrum test carried out using compound6b21showed that this compound specifically inhibitsM. tuberculosis. These can serve as a new starting point for the development of anti-TB agents with therapeutic potential.

Titanium silicates as efficient catalyst for alkylation and acylation of silyl enol ethers under liquid-phase conditions

The activity of titanium- and tin-silicate samples such as TS-1, TS-2, Ti-β and Sn-MFI has been investigated for acylation and alkylation of silyl enol ethers under mild liquid-phase conditions. Silyl enol ethers successfully react with acetyl chloride and tert-butyl chloride under dry conditions in the presence of above catalysts to produce the corresponding acylated and alkylated products, respectively. In the case of acetylation reaction, two different nucleophiles with carbon-center (C-atom) and oxygen-center (O-atom) in silyloxy group of silyl enol ether reacts with acetyl chloride to give 1,3-diketone and ketene-ester, respectively. The selectivity for alkylation is always ca. 100% and no side products are formed. Among the various solvents investigated, anhydrous THF was found to be the suitable solvent for alkylation; whereas dichloromethane exhibited high selectivity for diketones for acylation. The formation of nucleophiles from silyl enol ethers appears to be the key step for successful acetylation and tert-butylation by nucleophilic reaction mechanism. Sn-MFI showed less activity than that observed over the titanosilicates. The observed catalytic activity is explained on the basis of "oxophilic Lewis acidity" of titanium silicate molecular sieves in the absence of H 2O under dry reaction conditions.
