Bacterial hyaluronan lyases (Hyal) degrade hyaluronan, an important component of the extracellular matrix, and are involved in microbial spread. Hyal inhibitors may serve as tools to study the role of the enzyme, its substrates and products in the course of bacterial infections. Moreover, such enzyme inhibitors are potential candidates for antibacterial combination therapy. Based on crystal structures of Streptococcus pneumoniae Hyal in complex with a hexasaccharide substrate and with different inhibitors, 1-acylated benzimidazole-2-thiones and benzoxazole-2-thiones were derived as new leads for the inhibition of Streptococcus agalactiae strain 4755 Hyal. Structure-based optimization led to N-(3-phenylpropionyl)benzoxazole-2-thione, one of the most potent compounds known to date (IC50 values: 24 μM at pH 7.4, 15 μM at pH 5). Among the 27 new derivatives, other N-acylated benzimidazoles and benzoxazoles are just as active at pH 7.4, but not at pH 5. The results support a binding mode characterized by interactions with residues in the catalytic site and with a hydrophobic patch.
Synthesis of benz[d]oxazolones involving concomitant acetyl migration from oxygen to nitrogen

Heating of o-acetoxybenzoyl azides 6-10 in toluene leads to the Curtius reaction, which, when followed by closure of oxazolone ring with concomitant migration of acetyl group from oxygen to nitrogen, produces 3-acetoxybenz[d] oxazol-2(3H)-ones 11-15, which undergo hydrolysis with hot dilute hydrochloric acid to furnish benz[d]oxazol-2(3H)-ones 17-21. Thermal reaction of 2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzoyl azide (22) in toluene finally yields a mixture of 5-nitrobenz[d]oxazol-2(3H)-one (20) and 5-nitrobenz[d]isoxazol-3(2H)-one (23).

Efficient and selective deprotection method for N-protected 2(3H)-benzoxazolones and 2(3H)-benzothiazolones

Cyclic carbamate flanked with heterocyclic or aliphatic moieties are frequently used in medicinal chemistry. The synthesis of derivatives bearing a free NH often requires the use of a protection method. A literature search reveals very few protection/deprotection methods for cyclic carbamates. In this paper, we described different methods applicable to 2(3H)-benzoxazolone and 2(3H)-benzothiazolone. Graphical abstract
