A novel homologous series of trimeric anionic surfactants, 3C n TE3CNa (where n is a fatty acid chain length of 7, 10, or 12), with three hydrocarbon chains and three carboxylate heads connected via tri-etheric bonds were synthesized from long-chain α-bromo fatty acids and a triol, 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)ethane. The obtained trimeric carboxylic acids were esterified and purified by silica gel column chromatography, then hydrolyzed with dilute sodium hydroxide solution to form a series of trimeric carboxylate surfactant products. All prepared compounds were analyzed by IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopy to confirm their chemical structures. Their surface-active properties were investigated. The critical micelle concentrations (cmc) of 3C n TE3CNa were in the range of 0.12-0.71 mmol/L, and the surface tensions at the cmc (γ cmc) were 29.3-34.8 mN/m.

Novel N-α-haloacylated homoserine lactones, in which a halogen atom was introduced at the α-position of the carbonyl function of the N - acyl chain, have been studied as quorum sensing (QS) modulators and compared with a library of natural N - acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs). The series of novel analogues consists of α-chloro, α-bromo and α-iodo AHL analogues. Furthermore, the biological QS activity of the synthetic AHL analogues compared to the natural AHLs was evaluated. Halogenated analogues demonstrated a reduced activity in the Escherichia coli JB523 bioassay, with the α-iodo lactones being the less active ones and the α-chloro AHLs the most potent QS agonists. Most of the α-haloacylated analogues did not exhibit a significant reduction when tested in the QS inhibition test. Therefore, these novel analogues could be utilized as chemical probes for QS structure-activity studies.

A series of twelve 1,3-dithiolium-4-thiolate mesoionic compounds were synthesized and characterized. The synthetical approach starting from α-bromoalkanoic acids to obtain the corresponding 2-N-morpholino-dithiocarbamoyl-carboxylic acids that by on-pot reaction with carbon disulfide and acetic anhydride in triethylamine formed not isolate intermediates, 1,3-dithiolium-4-olates. After, the 2-N-morpholino-5-alkyl-1,3-dithiolium-4-thiolates were obtained by retro 1,3-dipolar addition reactions. The alkyl moiety linked to C-5 of heterocyclic ring permitted the increase of the hydrophobic character and this effect was evaluated on Artemia salina lethality. The results indicated a bell-shaped relationship between the number of carbon of side chain in mesoionic derivatives and LD50 in brine shrimp toxicity assays.

NaBrO3 combined with NaHSO3 was found to be an excellent oxidizing reagent of alcohols, diols, and ethers under mild conditions. A variety of aliphatic and cyclic diols were selectively oxidized with satisfactory yields to the corresponding hydroxy ketones and/or diketones, which are difficult to selectively prepare due to a concomitant formation of cleaved products. For example, 2-hydroxycyclohexanone and 1,2-cyclohexanedione were selectively formed by allowing 1,2-cyclohexanediol to react with NaBrO3/NaHSO3 reagent in a selected solvent. On the other hand, an alkyl ether, such as dioctyl ether, reacted with NaBrO3/NaHSO3, in water at room temperature to give octyl octanoate in 82% yield. The same oxidation at higher temperature (60°C) produced the α-brominated ester, octyl 2-bromooctanoate, which is considered to be formed through an alkenyl alkyl ether as the intermediate. The treatment of 1-ethoxy-l-heptene with NaBrO3/NaHSO3 afforded ethyl 2-bromoheptanoate and 2-bromoheptanoic acid as the major products.
