Alcohols and phenols are efficiently nitrated with thionyl chloride nitrate or thionyl nitrate, even in the presence of an aromatic moiety.While thionyl chloride nitrate is suitable for nitration of primary OH-groups in carbohydrates, thionyl nitrate is reactive enough to react with secondary OH-groups as well.These reagents permit the highly selective nitration of the 5'-, 2',5'- and 3',5'-OH-groups of ribonucleosides to produce either mono- or diprotected nitro derivatives in high yields.Carbon acids and the enol form of some ketones are efficiently nitrated with trifluoromethanesulfonyl nitrate/potassium tert-butoxide.Lutidine N-oxide(2,6-(CH3)2C5H3N->O) was found to have marked effect on nitration reactions.Similarly, thionyl chloride nitrite and thionyl nitrite exhibit an excellent capacity for nitrosation of the aforementioned substrates

A new protocol to synthesize cyanoformates was developed using simple β-ketoesters as substrates. (Diethylamino)sulfur trifluoride (DAST) was used as a dual-role reagent to activate the oxime moiety and to donate a fluoride. The key intermediates, α-oximino-β-ketoesters, were prepared by highly efficient acid-assisted oximation of β-ketoesters. Then, the deconstruction of α-oximino-β-ketoesters by the fluorinative C–C bond cleavage was demonstrated to provide cyanoformates. In this event, the fluoride addition followed by the C–C bond cleavage selectively occurred in the ketones over esters. Due to simple and mild reaction conditions, variously functionalized cyanoformates were exemplified.

Alkoxycarbonylpiperazine-2,5-diones are versatile precursors for the α-functionalisation of piperazine-2,5-diones. The alkoxycarbonyl group activates the α-carbon position to alkylation reactions and this provides a mild and selective method for the extension of the carbon framework of piperazine-2,5-diones. In addition, the alkoxycarbonyl group can be converted to the carboxy group, which in turn can be 'deleted' or manipulated for the installation of carbon and/or heteroatom substituents where desired, the latter via N-acyliminium chemistry. We also demonstrate that hydroxymethylpiperazine-2, 5-diones complement carboxypiperazinediones as precursors for the generation of N-acyliminium ions.

Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase catalyses the sequential decarboxylation of uroporphyrinogen-III (1) to give coproporphyrinogen-III (2), a precursor to the hemes and chlorophylls. This involves the decarboxylation of four nonequivalent acetate side chains to produce methyl units and in principle could take place by 24 different pathways involving up to 14 intermediary porphyrinogens. In the past, seemingly contradictory data have been presented that either support an ordered 'clockwise' decarboxylation pathway or a random decarboxylation process. Four pentacarboxylate porphyrinogens might be involved immediately before the formation of 2, and these compounds have been synthesized as the corresponding porphyrin pentamethyl esters via tripyrrene and a,c-biladiene intermediates. Hydrolysis of the methyl esters and reduction with 3% sodium amalgam gave the required porphyrinogens, and these were incubated with crude enzyme preparations derived from chicken red cell hemolysates. One of these pentacarboxylate porphyrinogens. (5dab) consistently proved to be a much better substrate than the other three, providing new support for the 'clockwise' pathway for coproporphyrinogen-III formation.
Haem d1: Stereoselective synthesis of the reduced form of its parent macrocycle using the original coupling strategy

A substituted isobacteriochlorin, which corresponds structurally to the reduced metal-free macrocycle of haem d1, has been synthesised by a stereoselective route in which the final step is a photochemical 18π-electron antarafacial cyclisation of an open-chain precursor.

, (2008/06/13)
The invention concerns novel renin-inhibitory peptides which are useful for treating renin-assocated hypertension, hyperaldosteronism, and congestive heart failure. Processes for preparing the peptides, compositions containing them and methods of using them are included. Also included is a diagnostic method which uses the compounds to determine the presence of renin-associated hypertension or hyperaldosteronism.
