Herein, we report the development of a tailored cobalt catalyst system of Cp*Co(III)(LX) toward intramolecular C-H nitrene insertion of azidoformates to afford cyclic carbamates. The cobalt complexes were easy to prepare and bench-stable, thus offering a convenient reaction protocol. The catalytic reactivity was significantly improved by the electronic tuning of the bidentate LX ligands, and the observed regioselectivity was rationalized by the conformational analysis and DFT calculations of the transition states. The superior performance of the newly developed cobalt catalyst system could be broadly applied to both C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H carbamation reactions under mild conditions.

A series of 3-amino-5-benzylphenol derivatives were designed and synthesized. Among them, (3-benzyl-5-hydroxyphenyl)carbamates were found to exert good inhibitory activity against M. tuberculosis H37Ra, H37Rv and clinically isolated multidrug-resistant M. tuberculosis strains (MIC = 0.625-6.25 μg/mL). The privileged compounds 3i and 3l showed moderate cytotoxicity against cell line A549. Compound 3l also exhibited potent in vivo inhibitory activity on a mouse infection model via the oral administration. The results demonstrated 3-hydroxyphenylcarbamates as a class of new antitubercular agents with good potential.

Elevated reactive oxygen species and antioxidant defense systems have been recognized as one of the hallmarks of cancer cells. As a major regulator of the cellular redox homeostasis, the selenoprotein thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) is increasingly considered as a promising target for anticancer drug development. The current approach to inhibit TrxR predominantly relies on the modification of the selenocysteine residue in the C-terminal active site of the enzyme, in which it is hard to avoid the off-target effects. By conjugating the anticancer drug gemcitabine with a 1,2-dithiolane scaffold, an unprecedented prodrug strategy is disclosed that achieves a specific release of gemcitabine by TrxR in cells. As overexpression of TrxR is frequently found in different types of tumors, the TrxR-dependent prodrugs are promising for further development as cancer chemotherapeutic agents.
