A simple catalyst- and promoter-free protocol has been developed for the transamidation of weakly nucleophilic aromatic amines with formamide derivatives and low-reactivity tertiary amides with aliphatic amines. This strategy is advantageous because no catalyst or promoters are needed, no additives are required, separation and purification is easy, and the reaction is scalable. Significantly, this strategy was further applied to synthesize several pharmaceutical molecules on a gram scale, and excellent yields were achieved.

Our aim was to identify new multi-target compounds endowed with both anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial activities for treatment of human infections. Diflunisal, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent, has recently been repurposed for its anti-virulence properties against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Effective synthesis of some aza-analogs of the anti-inflammatory drug diflunisal was carried out following the route involving key oxazole intermediates to obtain o- and m-hydroxypyridinecarboxylic acid derivatives. The newly synthesized diflunisal aza-analogs did not exhibit cytotoxic activity up to 80 μM and some of them exhibited anti-inflammatory activities, decreasing the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and prostaglandins induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharide in human primary macrophages. Ten of the diflunisal aza-analogs were found to have interesting antibacterial activity, sensitizing S. aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Enterococcus faecium, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa to the antibacterial effects of beta-lactam antibiotics and protein synthesis inhibitors.

Access to enantioenriched non-proteogenic phenylalanine derivatives is described using the enantioselective decarboxylative protonation reaction of amidohemimalonate esters catalysed by various cinchona-based compounds. This study compares the catalytic efficiency as well as the enantioselectivity induced by three types of common organocatalysts, namely thioureas, squaramides and bis-cinchona squaramides. One of the main outcome of this work is the observation of a significant influence of the N-protecting group of the hemimalonate on its interaction with the catalyst. This methodology carried out under mild conditions exhibits good substrate scope and functional group tolerance. A substoichiometric amount of catalyst can also be used in certain cases while affording good yields and selectivities.

The one-step synthesis of the enol formates, isopropenyl, hex-1-en-2-yl, and α-methylenebenzyl formates, directly from terminal alkynes and formic acid with arene-ruthenium(II) catalysts is reported.They have been shown to be effective formylating reagents, under mild and neutral conditions, to produce formamides from primary and secondary amines, formylamino esters, and in the presence of a catalytic amount of imidazole, formates from alcohols or phenols.
