Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed orthogonal synthesis of 2-hydroxybenzoates and substituted cyclohexanones from acyclic unsaturated 1,3-carbonyl compounds

A Pd-catalyzed orthogonal synthesis of substituted 2-hydroxybenzoates and substituted cyclohexanones was developed for the first time. The substituted 2-hydroxybenzoates were obtained from acyclic unsaturated 1,3-carbonyl compounds using a combination of catalytic Pd(OAc)2 and Cu(OAc)2. On the other hand, the substituted cyclohexanones were produced from similar substrates via catalytic Pd(OAc)2 and hydrogen chloride. Each transformation was clean, easy to work up, provided the desired compounds in good purities, and did not require column chromatography purification.

Synthesis, antibacterial activity, and quantitative structure-activity relationships of new (Z)-2-(nitroimidazolylmethylene)-3(2 H)-benzofuranone derivatives

A new series of (Z)-2-(1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole-2-ylmethylene)-3(2 H)-benzofuranones (11a-p) and (Z)-2-(1-methyl-4-nitroimidazole-5-ylmethylene)-3(2 H)-benzofuranones (12a-m) were synthesized and assayed for their antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Most of the 5-nitroimidazole analogues (11a-p) showed a remarkable inhibition of a wide spectrum of Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus epidermidis, MRSA, and Bacillus subtilis) and Gram-negative Klebsiella pneumoniae, whereas 4-nitroimidazole analogues (12a-m) were not effective against selected bacteria. The quantitative structure-activity relationship investigations were applied to find out the correlation between the experimentally evaluated activities with various parameters of the compounds studied. The QSAR models built in this work had reasonable predictive power and could be explained by the observed trends in activities.

Method for preparing scenting compositions and scented products, and resulting products

The present invention relates to a process for the production of perfuming compositions, to perfumed products, and to products obtained therefrom.
