Enhancing catalytic performance via structure core-shell metal-organic frameworks

A core-shell structure metal-organic framework based on the Zr clusters bridging with BDC linkers (UiO-66) as a core-structure and BPYDC linkers (UiO-67-BPY) as a shell-structure was developed (UiO-67-BPY@UiO-66). The combination of several techniques suc

Stereoselective desymmetrizations of dinitriles to synthesize lactones

Nitriles are important organic functional groups, allowing for installation of nitrogen in organic synthesis. The Pinner reaction transforms nitriles into esters via the imidate group, but in general has previously necessitated harsh acid conditions. This

Direct Cyclopropanation of α-Cyano β-Aryl Alkanes by Light-Mediated Single Electron Transfer Between Donor–Acceptor Pairs

Cyclopropanes are traditionally prepared by the formal [2+1] addition of carbene or radical based C1 units to alkenes. In contrast, the one-pot intermolecular cyclopropanation of alkanes by redox active C1 units has remained unrealised. Herein, we achieve

Catalyst-Free [3 + 3] Annulation/Oxidation of Cyclic Amidines with Activated Olefins: When the Substrate Olefin Is Also an Oxidant

Herein we describe a catalyst-free regioselective [3 + 3] annulation/oxidation reaction of cyclic amidines such as DBU (1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene) and DBN (1,5-diazabicyclo(4.3.0)non-5-ene) with activated olefins, i.e., 2-arylidenemalononitriles and 2-cyano-3-aryl acrylates, to afford tricyclic 2-pyridones and pyridin-2(1H)-imines, respectively. The mechanism has been proposed based on DFT calculations. In the reaction, the cyclic amidines serve as C,N-bisnucleophiles for the cyclization, while the olefins play a dual role by acting as both reactants and oxidants.

Preparation of O-Protected Cyanohydrins by Aerobic Oxidation of α-Substituted Malononitriles in the Presence of Diarylphosphine Oxides

A mild, reagent-cyanide-free, and efficient synthesis of O-phosphinoyl-protected cyanohydrins from readily available α-substituted malononitriles was realized using diarylphosphine oxides in the presence of O2. Mechanistic studies indicated that in addition to the initial aerobic oxidation of the malononitrile derivative notable features of this process include the formation of a tetrahedral intermediate and a subsequent intramolecular rearrangement. The phosphinoyl-protecting group can be removed by alcoholysis or by reduction with DIBAL-H.

Synthesis and biocatalytic ene-reduction of Knoevenagel condensation compounds by the marine-derived fungus Penicillium citrinum CBMAI 1186

The chemoselective bioreduction of α,β-unsaturated compounds is an important synthetic tool that can have applications in the synthesis of many fine chemicals and pharmaceutical molecules. The synthesis of aromatic malononitrile derivatives through Knoevenagel condensation by microwave radiation under green chemistry conditions using methanol like solvent, free base and free catalyst is here reported. In addiction the biocatalytic reduction of the C–C double bond of aromatic malononitrile derivatives by whole cells of the marine-derived fungal Penicillium citrinum CBMAI 1186 was also tested. The products catalyzed by the fungus ene-reductase were obtained in very good yields (up to >98%).

Base-Promoted Cascade Approach for the Preparation of Reduced Knoevenagel Adducts Using Hantzsch Esters as Reducing Agent in Water

A cascade Knoevenagel condensation-reduction approach, which was carried out in water, has been reported. Using Hantzsch esters as reducing agent, under the promotion of base, a variety of reduced Knoevenagel adducts could be easily prepared by direct alkylation of malononitrile, ethyl 2-cyanoacetate, and 2-(4-nitrophenyl)acetonitrile, respectively. Meanwhile, a gram-scale synthesis of the protocol was also realized with excellent isolated yield.

Discovery of mixed type thymidine phosphorylase inhibitors endowed with antiangiogenic properties: Synthesis, pharmacological evaluation and molecular docking study of 2-thioxo-pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazin-4-ones. Part II

In our drug discovery program, a series of 2-thioxo-pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5] triazin-4-ones were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their TP inhibitory potential. All the synthesized analogues conferred a varying degree of TP inhibitory activity, comparable or better than positive control, 7-deazaxanthine (7-DX, 2) (IC50 value = 42.63 μM). A systematic approach to the lead optimization identified compounds 3c and 4a as the most promising TP inhibitors, exhibiting mixed mode of enzyme inhibition. Moreover, selected compounds demonstrated the ability to attenuate the expression of the angiogenic markers (viz. MMP-9 and VEGF) in MDA-MB-231 cells at sublethal concentrations. In addition, molecular docking studies revealed the plausible binding orientation of these inhibitors towards TP, which was in accordance with the experimental results. Taken as a whole, these compounds would constitute a new direction for the design of novel TP inhibitors with promising antiangiogenic properties.

Study on comparison of reducing ability of three organic hydride compounds

Selective reduction of three kinds of substrates were studied to evaluate the reducing abilities of N,N-dimethyl-benzimidazolidine (DMBI), 2-phenylbenzimidazoline (PBI) and 2-phenylbenzothiazoline (PBT). As hydride donors, these three five-membered heterocyclic compounds performed different reducing abilities depending on the substrates.
