Lauterbach, Lukas,Dickschat, Jeroen S.
, p. 3608 - 3617 (2020/09/22)
The flavobacterium Chryseobacterium polytrichastri was investigated for its volatile profile by use of a closed-loop stripping apparatus (CLSA) and subsequent GC-MS analysis. The analyses revealed a rich headspace extract with 71 identified compounds. Compound identification was based on a comparison to library mass spectra for known compounds and on a synthesis of authentic standards for unknowns. Important classes were phenylethyl amides and a series of corresponding imines and pyrroles.

Moderated and mild way for synthesizing N-substituted pyrrole has been demonstrated herein. No solvents need to be used for this reaction, and instead, reactants themselves acted as a reaction medium. In fact, the reaction is carried out using catalytic amount of Ca(NO3)2.4H2O. The reaction conditions are selective and mild that helped to tolerate a wide variety of functional groups to give the desired products in good chemical yields.

We describe the catalytic amination of β-(hetero)arylethyl ethers with amines using the organic superbase t-Bu-P4 to obtain β-(hetero)arylethylamines. The reaction has a broad substrate scope and allows the transformations of electron-deficient and electron-neutral β-(hetero)arylethyl ethers with various amines including pyrrole, N-alkylaniline, diphenylamine, aniline, indole, and indoline derivatives. Mechanistic studies indicate a two-reaction pathway of MeOH elimination from the substrate to form a (hetero)arylalkene followed by the hydroamination of the alkene.

A general and selective metal-catalyzed conversion of biomass-derived primary diols and amines to the highly valuable 2,5-unsubstituted pyrroles has been developed. The reaction is catalyzed by a stable nonprecious manganese complex (1 mol %) in the absence of organic solvents whereby water and molecular hydrogen are the only side products. The manganese catalyst shows unprecedented selectivity, avoiding the formation of pyrrolidines, cyclic imides, and lactones.

Inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPiase) is an essential enzyme that hydrolyzes inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi), driving numerous metabolic processes. We report a discovery of an allosteric inhibitor (2,4-bis(aziridin-1-yl)-6-(1-phenylpyrrol-2-yl)-s-triazine) of bacterial PPiases. Analogues of this lead compound were synthesized to target specifically Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) PPiase (MtPPiase). The best analogue (compound 16) with a Ki of 11 μM for MtPPiase is a species-specific inhibitor. Crystal structures of MtPPiase in complex with the lead compound and one of its analogues (compound 6) demonstrate that the inhibitors bind in a nonconserved interface between monomers of the hexameric MtPPiase in a yet unprecedented pairwise manner, while the remote conserved active site of the enzyme is occupied by a bound PPi substrate. Consistent with the structural studies, the kinetic analysis of the most potent inhibitor has indicated that it functions uncompetitively, by binding to the enzyme-substrate complex. The inhibitors appear to allosterically lock the active site in a closed state causing its dysfunctionalization and blocking the hydrolysis. These inhibitors are the first examples of allosteric, species-selective inhibitors of PPiases, serving as a proof-of-principle that PPiases can be selectively targeted.
Sustainable Pathways to Pyrroles through Iron-Catalyzed N-Heterocyclization from Unsaturated Diols and Primary Amines

Pyrroles are prominent scaffolds in pharmaceutically active compounds and play an important role in medicinal chemistry. Therefore, the development of new, atom-economic, and sustainable catalytic strategies to obtain these moieties is highly desired. Direct catalytic pathways that utilize readily available alcohol substrates have been recently established; however, these approaches rely on the use of noble metals such as ruthenium or iridium. Here, we report on the direct synthesis of pyrroles using a catalyst based on the earth-abundant and inexpensive iron. The method uses 2-butyne-1,4-diol or 2-butene-1,4-diol that can be directly coupled with anilines, benzyl amines, and aliphatic amines to obtain a variety of N-substituted pyrroles in moderate-to-excellent isolated yields.

Bacteria of the genus Acinetobacter spp. are rapidly emerging as problematic pathogens in healthcare settings. This is exacerbated by the bacteria's ability to form robust biofilms. Marine natural products incorporating a 2-aminoimidazole (2-AI) motif, namely from the oroidin class of marine alkaloids, have served as a unique scaffold for developing molecules that have the ability to inhibit and disperse bacterial biofilms. Herein we present the anti-biofilm activity of a small library of second generation oroidin analogues against the bacterium Acinetobacter baumannii.
Strecker-type degradation produced by the lipid oxidation products 4,5-epoxy-2-alkenals
Hidalgo, Francisco J.,Zamora, Rosario

Strecker degradation is one of the most important reactions leading to final aroma compounds in the Maillard reaction. In an attempt to clarify whether lipid oxidation products may be contributing to the Strecker degradation of amino acids, this study analyzes the reaction of 4,5-epoxy-2-alkenals with phenylalanine. In addition to N-substituted 2-(1-hydroxyalkyl)pyrroles and N-substituted pyrroles, which are major products of the reaction, the formation of both the Strecker aldehyde phenylacetaldehyde and 2-alkylpyridines was also observed. The aldehyde, which was produced at 37°C - as could be determined by forming its corresponding thiazolidine with cysteamine - and pH 6-7, was not produced when the amino acid was esterified. This aldehyde is suggested to be produced through imine formation, which is then decarboxylated and hydrolyzed. This reaction also produces a hydroxyl amino derivative, which is the origin of the 2-alkylpyridines identified. All these data indicate that Strecker-type degradation of amino acids is produced at 37°C by some lipid oxidation products. This is a new proof of the interrelations between lipid oxidation and Maillard reaction, which are able to produce common products by analogue mechanisms.
Synthesis and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic studies of 1- arylpyrroles
Lee, Chang Kiu,Jun, Jung Ho,Yu, Ji Sook
, p. 15 - 24 (2007/10/03)
A series of m- and p-substituted 1-phenyl, 1-benzyl, 1-benzoyl, and 1- (2-phenylethyl)pyrroles was prepared and their 1H and 13C nmr spectroscopic characteristics were examined. In general, good correlations were observed between the chemical shift values of the β-H and the β-C of pyrroles [except 1-(2-phenylethyl)pyrroles] and the Hammettt σ. The observation may be explained in terms of the electronic effects of the substituents which are transmitted through bonds and through space by interaction of the p orbitals between β-Cs of the pyrrole ring and m- and p- Cs of the phenyl ring. Substituent constants of 1-pyrrolyl, 1-pyrrolylmethyl, and 1-pyrroloyl groups for the 1H and 13C chemical shifts of phenyl ring are also presented.

N-(Benzotriazol-1-ylmethyl)-indole, - pyrrole, -carbazole, and -benzimidazole, and analogs substituted in the methylene group are converted by lithium aluminum hydride, or by Grignard reagents, or in two cases by organozinc reagents, into the N-substituted heterocycles in good yields.
