The selective reduction of ?,¢-unsaturated carbonyl compounds was achieved to produce saturated carbonyl compounds with aqueous HI solution. The introduction of an aryl group at an ? or ¢ position efficiently facilitated the reduction with good yield. The reaction was applicable to compounds bearing carboxylic acids and halogen atoms. Through the investigation of the reaction mechanism, it was found that Michael-type addition of iodide occurred to produce ¢-iodo compounds followed by the reduction of C-I bond via anionic and radical paths.

In search of novel therapeutic agents active against emerging drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis and to counter the long treatment protocol of existing drugs, herein we present synthesis and biological evaluation of a new series of 5-phenyl-3-isoxazolecarboxylic acid methyl ester-chalcone hybrids. Among 35 synthesized compounds, 32 analogues displayed potent in-vitro activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv with MIC 0.12–16 μg/mL. Cell viability test against Vero cells indicated 29 compounds to be non-cytotoxic (CC50 > 20 μg/mL & SI > 10). Most potent compounds with MIC 0.12 μg/mL (7 b, 7j, 7 ab) exhibited selectivity index (SI) in excess of 320. Further studies on activity against drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis revealed 7j as the most potent compound with MIC 0.03–0.5 μg/mL. Time-kill kinetic study suggested compound 7j displaying concentration-dependent bactericidal killing activity with relatively comparable potency to that of current first-line anti-TB drugs. Taken together, 7j presents a novel hit with potential to be translated into a potent antimycobacterial.

Identification of allosteric inhibitors of PTPs has attracted great interest as a new strategy to overcome the challenge of discover potent and selective molecules for therapeutic intervention. YopH is a virulence factor of the genus Yersinia, validated a
