Evaluation of ethyl: N -(2-phenethyl) carbamate analogues as biofilm inhibitors of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus

A small molecule library consisting of 45 compounds was synthesized based on the bacterial metabolite ethyl N-(2-phenethyl) carbamate. Screening of the compounds revealed a potent analogue capabale of inhibiting several strains of Methicillin Resistant S. aureus biofilms with low to moderate micromolar IC50 values.

Redox self-sufficient biocatalyst network for the amination of primary alcohols

Driving the machinery: A biocatalytic redox-neutral cascade for the preparation of terminal primary amines from primary alcohols at the expense of ammonia has been established in a one-pot one-step method (see picture). Applying this artificial biocatalyst network, long-chain 1,ω-alkanediols were converted into diamines, which are building blocks for polymers, in up to 99 % conversion. Copyright

Synthesis, structure-activity relationships and molecular modeling studies of new indole inhibitors of monoamine oxidases A and B

New monoamine oxidase inhibitors were synthesized as indole analogues of a previously reported pyrrole series. Several compounds were potent MAO-A (12, 17, 19-22, 31, 36, and 37) or MAO-B (14, 20, 24, 38, 44, and 46) inhibitors, and had Ki values in the nanomolar concentration range. In particular, 22 (Ki = 0.00092 μM, and SI = 68,478) was exceptionally potent and selective as MAO-A inhibitor. In molecular modeling studies, compounds 22, 24, 44, and 46 positioned the indole ring into an aromatic cavity of MAO-A, and established π-π stacking interactions with Tyr407, Tyr444, and FAD cofactor. However, only compound 22 was able to form hydrogen bonds with FAD, a finding which was in accordance with its potent anti-MAO-A activity. Conversely, 22/MAOB complex was highly unstable during the MD simulation.

Electrochemically promoted C-N bond formation from amines and CO 2 in ionic liquid BMIm-BF4: Synthesis of carbamates

A new electrochemical procedure for the synthesis of organic carbamates from amines and carbon dioxide has been developed using selective cathodic reduction of carbon dioxide in CO2-saturated room-temperature ionic liquid BMIm-BF4 solutions containing amines 1a-j, followed by addition of EtI as an alkylating agent. The synthesis was carried out under mild (PCO2 = 1.0 atm, t = 55 °C) and safe conditions, and the use of volatile and toxic solvents and catalysts (according to the growing demand for ecofriendly synthetic methodologies), as well as of any supporting electrolyte (for a very easy workup of the reaction mixture), was avoided. Carbamates 2a-j were isolated in good to high yields.

The reaction of amines with an electrogenerated base. Improved synthesis of arylcarbamic esters

The electrogenerated base of 2-pyrrolidone reacts with amines and anilines yielding the corresponding alkyl and aryl carbamates, after addition of carbon dioxide and ethyl iodide. Arylcarbamic esters are obtained in very good yields under mild reaction conditions with respect to the methods so far reported. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Direct conversion of azides to carbamates and sulfonamides using Fe/NH4Cl: Effect of sonication

A simple, direct and effective conversion of azides to carbamates and sulfonamides is achieved using Fe/NH4Cl in methanol. The influence of sonication and direct application in solution phase combinatorial chemistry are also studied by developing a 6x4 matrix library. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Electrogenerated Superoxide-Activated Carbon Dioxide. A New Mild and Safe Approach to Organic Carbamates

The electrochemical reduction of O2 (E = -1.0 V vs SCE) in dipolar aprotic solvents in the presence of CO2 gave a carboxylating reagent (O2·-/CO2) able to convert amines and different types of their derivatives into carbamates. Primary and secondary aliphatic and aromatic amines were converted into the corresponding ethyl carbamates by the addition of EtI to the carbamate anions generated in the first step of the reactions. The yields were dependent on the nucleophilicity of the nitrogen atom ω-Bromoethyl- and propylamine gave 2-oxazolidinone and tetrahydro-l,3-oxazm-2-one in moderate yields. N-Acyl or N-(alkoxycarbonyl)alkylamines bearing a leaving group at the β position of the alkyl substituent were converted into 3-substituted-2-oxazolidinones in high yields. By using chiral substrates, enantiopure 3-alkoxycarbonyl(or acyl)-4-substituted oxazolidin-2-ones (70-85% isolated yields) were obtained. This represents a new mild and safe route to these important auxiliaries for asymmetric synthesis. Some limitations of the process are also evidenced and accounted for.
