We report an efficient catalytic Staudinger reduction at room temperature that enables the preparation of a structurally diverse set of amines from azides in excellent yields. The reaction is based on the use of catalytic amounts of triphenylphosphine as a phosphine source and diphenyldisiloxane as a reducing agent. Our catalytic Staudinger reduction exhibits a high chemoselectivity, as exemplified by reduction of azides over other common functionalities, including nitriles, alkenes, alkynes, esters, and ketones.

Two important goals of green chemistry are to maximize the efficiency of reactants and to minimize the production of waste. In this study, a novel approach to improve the atom economy of a chemical process was developed by incorporating a direct cycle between a co-product and a reactant of the same reaction. To demonstrate this concept, recoverable 3,4-diphenylmaleic anhydride (1) was designed and used for the atom-economical synthesis of aliphatic primary amines from aqueous ammonia. In each individual cycle, only ammonia and alkyl halide were consumed, and 1 was recovered in nearly a quantitative yield. In this approach for developing atom-economical protecting agents, 1 showed good performance as a recoverable protecting agent for primary amines. The broad substrate scope, good tolerance to various reaction conditions, and high reaction and recovery rates make 1 a valuable complement to conventional primary amine protecting agents.

Quantitative structure inter-activity relationship (QSInAR). Cytotoxicity study of some hemisynthetic and isolated natural steroids and precursors on human fibrosarcoma cells HT1080

Combined experimental and quantitative structure inter-activity relationship (QSIAR) computation methods were advanced in order to establish the structural and mechanistic influences that steroids and triterpenes, either as newly synthesized or naturally isolated products, have on human HT1080 mammalian cancer cells. The main Hansch structural indicators such as hydrophobicity (LogP), polarizability (POL) and total energy (Etot) were considered and both the structure-projected as well as globally computed correlations were reported; while the inter-activity correlation of the global activity with those projected on structural information was revealed as equal to the direct structural-activity one for the trial sets of compounds, the prediction for the testing set of molecules reported even superior performances respecting those characteristic for the calibration set, validating therefore the present QSInAR models; accordingly, it follows that the LogP carries the most part of the cytotoxic signal, while POL has little influence on inhibiting tumor growth-A complementary behavior with their earlier known influence on genotoxic carcinogenesis. Regarding the newly hemisynthetic compounds it was found that stigmasta-4,22-dien-3-one is not adapted for cell membrane diffusion; it is recommended that aminocinnamyl chlorohydrate be further modified in order to acquire better steric influence, while aminocinnamyl-2,3,4,6-O- tetraacetyl-a-D-glucopyranoside was identified as being inhibited in the tumor cell by other molecular mechanisms-here not revealed-although it has a moderate-high anti-cancer structurally predicted activity.
