A sustainable Ni-catalyzed reductive acylation reaction of carboxylic acids via an electrochemical pathway is presented, affording a variety of ketones as major products. The reaction proceeds at ambient temperature using unactivated alkyl halides and N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHP) esters as coupling partners, which exhibits several synthetic advantages, including mild conditions and convenience of amplification (58% yield for 6 mmol scale reaction).

A cheap, facile and metal-free photochemical protocol for the activation of aromatic aldehydes has been developed. Utilizing thioxanthen-9-one as the photocatalyst and cheap household lamps as the light source, a variety of aromatic aldehydes have been activated and subsequently converted in a one-pot reaction into amides, hydroxamic acids and esters in good to high yields. The applicability of this method was highlighted in the synthesis of Moclobemide, a drug against depression and social anxiety. Extended and detailed mechanistic studies have been conducted, in order to determine a plausible mechanism for the reaction.

Deoxyhypusine synthase (DHPS) is the primary enzyme responsible for the hypusine modification and, thereby, activation of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A), which is key in regulating the protein translation processes associated with tumor proliferation. Although DHPS inhibitors could be a promising therapeutic option for treating cancer, only a few studies reported druglike compounds with this inhibition property. Thus, in this work, we designed and synthesized a new chemical series possessing fused ring scaffolds designed from high-throughput screening hit compounds, discovering a 5,6-dihydrothieno[2,3-c]pyridine derivative (26d) with potent inhibitory activity; furthermore, the X-ray crystallographic analysis of the DHPS complex with 26d demonstrated a distinct allosteric binding mode compared to a previously reported inhibitor. These findings could be significantly useful in the functional analysis of conformational changes in DHPS as well as the structure-based design of allosteric inhibitors.

Acyl-transfer catalysis is a frequently used tool to promote the formation of carboxylic acid derivatives, which are important synthetic precursors and target compounds in organic synthesis. However, there have been only a few structural motifs known to efficiently catalyze the acyl-transfer reaction. Herein, we introduce a different acyl-transfer catalytic paradigm based on the tropolone framework. We show that tropolonate salts, due to their strong nucleophilicity and photochemical activity, can promote the coupling reaction between alcohols and carboxylic acid anhydrides or chlorides to give products under thermal or blue light photochemical conditions. Kinetic studies and density functional theory calculations suggest interesting mechanistic insights for reactions promoted by this acyl-transfer catalytic system.

The catalytic efficiency of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) has been explored by making it multifunctional. Dual active sites were incorporated such as acid (dodecatungstophosphoric acid, DTP) and metal (Pd°) to prepare 5% Pd-DTP@ZIF-8. DTP was encapsulated inside the cage of ZIF-8 by in-situ and bottle around the ship approach whereas Pd was loaded ex-situ by simple wet impregnation method. The catalytic efficiency was tested for one pot synthesis of 3-phenyl propyl benzoate (3-PPB), a perfumery compound, from cinnamyl alcohol and benzoic anhydride. Trans-esterification of cinnamyl alcohol with benzoic anhydride gives cinnamyl benzoate which on further hydrogenation gives 3-PPB. Three different supports were screened such as ZIF-8, K10 and MCF out of which ZIF-8 showed the maximum activity because of its high surface area and smaller pore diameter. Further Pd, Ni and Cu metals were studied for selective hydrogenation of C[dbnd]C bond among which 5% Pd-DTP@ZIF-8 gave almost 98% conversion of cinnamyl benzoate to 3-PPB with 93% selectivity. Fresh and spent catalysts were characterized by various techniques. 5% Pd-DTP@ZIF-8 showed anti-leaching property with great thermal stability. The turn over frequency and turn over number of the catalyst was observed to be 0.058 s?1 and 835, respectively. A kinetic model was developed with good fit using LHHW mechanism and the activation energy calculated as 17.45 kcal/mol for hydrogenation step. Thus, the reaction was found to be kinetically controlled. The entire process is green.

CeO2 has been found to promote ester forming alcoholysis reactions of tertiary amides. The present catalytic system is operationally simple, recyclable, and it does not require additives. The esterification process displays a wide substrate scope (>45 examples; up to 93 % isolated yield). Results of a density functional theory (DFT) study combined with in situ FT-IR observations indicate that the process proceeds through rate limiting addition of a CeO2 lattice oxygen to the carbonyl group of the adsorbed acetamide species with energy barrier of 17.0 kcal/mol. This value matches well with experimental value (17.9 kcal/mol) obtained from analysis of the Arrhenius plot. Further studies by in situ FT-IR and temperature programmed desorption using probe molecules demonstrate that both acidic and basic properties are important, and consequently, CeO2 showed the best performance for the C?N bond cleavage reaction.

2-Arylazocarboxylate and 2-arylazocarboxamide derivatives can serve as replacements of typical Mitsunobu reagents such as diethyl azodicarboxylate. A systematic investigation of the reactivity and physical properties of those azo compounds has revealed that they have an excellent ability as Mitsunobu reagents. These reagents show similar or superior reactivity as compared to the known azo reagents and are applicable to the broad scope of substrates. pKa and steric effects of substrates have been investigated, and the limitation of the Mitsunobu reaction can be overcome by choosing suitable reagents from the library of 2-arylazocarboxylate and 2-aryl azocarboxamide derivatives. Convenient recovery of azo reagents is available by one-pot iron-catalyzed aerobic oxidation, for example. SC-DSC analysis of representative 2-arylazocarboxylate and 2-arylazocarboxamide derivatives has shown high thermal stability, indicating that these azo reagents possess lower chemical hazard compared with typical azo reagents.

A two-step catalytic amide-to-ester transformation of primary amides under mild reaction conditions has been developed. A tert-butyl nicotinate (tBu nic) directing group is easily introduced onto primary amides via Pd-catalyzed amidation with tert-butyl 2-chloronicotinate. A weak base (Cs2CO3 or K2CO3) at 40-50 °C can be used provided that 1,1′-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ferrocene is selected as ligand. The tBu nic activated amides subsequently allow Zn(OAc)2-catalyzed nonsolvolytic alcoholysis in tBuOAc at 40-60 °C under neutral reaction conditions. The activation mechanism is biomimetic: the C3-ester substituent of the pyridine in the directing group populates the trans-conformer suitable for Zn-chelation, C=Oamide-Zn-Ndirecting group, and Zn-coordinated alcohol is additionally activated as a nucleophile by hydrogen bonding with the acetate ligand of the catalyst. Additionally, the acetate ligand assists in intramolecular O-to-N proton transfer. The chemoselectivity versus other functional groups and compatibility with challenging reaction partners, such as peptides, sugars, and sterols, illustrates the synthetic applicability of this two-step amide cleavage method. The tBu nic amides do not require purification before cleavage. Preliminary experiments also indicate that other weak nucleophiles can be used such as (hetero)arylamines (transamidation) as exemplified by 8-aminoquinoline.
