Conformational analysis and selective hydrolysis of 2,5-disubstituted-1,3-dioxane-2-carboxylic acid esters

5-Alkyl-2-methyl-2-carbomethoxy-1,3-dioxanes were found to have a cis preferential configuration in the equilibrium state, and the ester hydrolysis rate of the trans-isomers was faster than that of the cis-isomers. Conformational analysis and charge calculation of the carbomethoxy group in both dioxanes elucidated this selectivity.

Synthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of oxazolidine LBM-415 analogs as peptide deformylase inhibitors

The drug resistant bacteria pose a severe threat to human health. The increasing resistance of those pathogens to traditional antibacterial therapy renders the identification of new antibacterial agents with novel antibacterial mechanisms an urgent need.

Esters of 2,5-multisubstituted-1,3-dioxane-2-carboxylic acid: their conformational analysis and selective hydrolysis

The carbomethoxy group at the C2 position of the 2,5-multisubstituted 1,3-dioxanes prefers the axial conformation rather than the equatorial one due to an anomeric effect. The trans isomers of the 5-monosubstituted compounds are more selectively hydrolyzed than the cis isomers. Based on the calculated results, hydrolysis to the trans isomers is attributed to the larger carbonyl charges of the trans than those of the cis isomers. The anomeric and homoanomeric effects will explain the axial preference of the carbomethoxy group and selective hydrolysis to the trans isomers. Furthermore, the calculated stability between the cis and trans isomers is in good agreement with the experimental results in the equilibrium state.
