Nitrogen oxide (NOx) conversion is an important process for balancing the global nitrogen cycle. Distinct from the biological NOx transformation, we have devised a synthetic approach to this issue by utilizing a bifunctional metal catalyst for producing value-added products from NOx. Here, we present a novel catalysis based on a Ni pincer system, effectively converting Ni-NOx to Ni-NO via deoxygenation with CO(g). This is followed by transfer of the in situ generated nitroso group to organic substrates, which favorably occurs at the flattened Ni(I)-NO site via its nucleophilic reaction. Successful catalytic production of oximes from benzyl halides using NaNO2 is presented with a turnover number of >200 under mild conditions. In a key step of the catalysis, a nickel(I)-?NO species effectively activates alkyl halides, which is carefully evaluated by both experimental and theoretical methods. Our nickel catalyst effectively fulfills a dual purpose, namely, deoxygenating NOx anions and catalyzing C-N coupling.

The present invention relates to novel compounds that can act as antidotes for treating “Acute Cannabinoid Overdose” produced by classical cannabinoids such as Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and several synthetic psychoactive cannabinoids (SPCs). The cannabis constituent THC exerts its psychotropic effects via CB1 receptor activation and SPCs mimic the effects of THC with higher potency and severe neurotoxicity. Compounds disclosed in this invention, their enantiomers, diastereomers, geometric isomers, racemates, tautomers, rotamers, atropisomers, metabolites, N-oxides, salts, solvates, hydrates, isotopic variations and their polymorphic forms can be therapeutically useful in an emergency setting for counteracting the intoxicating effects of acute THC ingestion and SPC overdose. Also, aspects of the invention are concerned with pyrazoles, imidazoles, triazoles, thiazoles, oxazoles, dihydropyrazoles, pyrrolidinones, azetidines, oxyazetidines and azaspiro[3.3]heptanes with unique pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties for treating “Acute Cannabinoid Overdose”.

New drugs to treat tuberculosis (TB) are urgently needed to combat the increase in resistance observed among the current first-line and second-line treatments. Here, we propose ketol-acid reductoisomerase (KARI) as a target for anti-TB drug discovery. Twenty-two analogues of IpOHA, an inhibitor of plant KARI, were evaluated as antimycobacterial agents. The strongest inhibitor of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mt) KARI has a Ki value of 19.7 nM, fivefold more potent than IpOHA (Ki = 97.7 nM). This and four other potent analogues are slow- and tight-binding inhibitors of MtKARI. Three compounds were cocrystallized with Staphylococcus aureus KARI and yielded crystals that diffracted to 1.6-2.0 ? resolution. Prodrugs of these compounds possess antimycobacterial activity against H37Rv, a virulent strain of human TB, with the most active compound having an MIC90 of 2.32 ± 0.04 μM. This compound demonstrates a very favorable selectivity window and represents a highly promising lead as an anti-TB agent.

Herein, a practical and sustainable method for the synthesis of aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids from an inexpensive olefinic feedstock is described. This transformation features very sustainable and mild conditions and utilizes commercially available and inexpensive tetrahydrofuran as the additive, molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant and water as the solvent. A wide range of substituted alkenes were found to be compatible, providing the corresponding carbonyl compounds in moderate-to-good yields. The control experiments demonstrated that a radical mechanism is responsible for the oxidation reaction.

, p. 2007 - 2012 (2022/01/08)
The catalytic activity of poly(N-vinylimidazole), a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic functional polymer, was investigated for the synthesis of oximes as an efficient, halogen-free, and reusable heterogeneous catalyst. The corresponding oximes were afforded in high to excellent yields at room temperature and in short times using the planetary ball mill technique. Some merits, such as the short reaction times and good yields for poorly active carbonyl compounds, and avoiding toxic, expensive, metal-containing catalysts, and hazardous and flammable solvents, can be mentioned for the current catalytic synthesis of the oximes. Furthermore, the heterogeneous organocatalyst could be easily separated after the reaction, and the regenerated catalyst was reused several times with no significant loss of its catalytic activity.

Monosubstituted ureas are important scaffolds in organic chemistry. They appear in various biologically active compounds and serve as versatile precursors in synthesis. Monosubstituted ureas were originally prepared using toxic and hazardous phosgene equivalents. Modern methods include transamidation of urea and nucleophilic addition to cyanate salts, both of which suffer from a narrow substrate scope due to the need for a strong acid and prolonged reaction times. We hereby report that ammonium chloride can promote the reaction between amines and potassium cyanate to generate monosubstituted ureas in water. This method proceeds rapidly under microwave irradiation and tolerates a broad range of functional groups. Unlike previous strategies, it is compatible with other nucleophiles, acid-labile moieties, and most of the common protecting groups. The products precipitate out of solution, allowing facile isolation without column chromatography.

Synthesis of amides via Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes promoted by cyanuric chloride (TCT)/DMSO under mild conditions has been reported. Conditions of the Beckmann rearrangement, e.g., solvents, the ratios of TCT/DMSO, and the temperature, were investigated using diphenylmethanone oxime as a substrate. The optimized conditions were adopted to afford fourteen amides with yields ranging from 20% to 99%. A plausible mechanism involving an active dimethyl alkoxysulfonium intermediate was proposed according to the mass spectrometry analysis. To our best knowledge, this is the first case of study on Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes promoted by TCT/DMSO under a mild condition to afford amides efficiently.

A series of mixed oxides-supported niobium-based catalysts has been synthesized and applied towards oxidation reactions of benzylamine derivatives. Under the optimized reaction conditions, the selectivity to oxime enhanced, leading to the main product with up to 72 %. Moreover, even α-substituted benzylamines were well tolerated and led to oximes in good isolated yields. It is important to mention; four equivalents of the harmless and inexpensive hydrogen peroxide were employed as oxidizing agent. Mechanism hypothesis suggested that the reaction proceed to selective benzylamine oxidation into nitroso intermediate, following by formation of the corresponding oxime tautomer mediated by an unstable water produced by NbOx supported catalyst. This consists the first mixed oxides-supported niobium-based catalyst for selective oxidation of benzylamines to oximes.

An efficient supported ionic liquid catalyst is designed for condensation reaction of aldehydes and ketones. The Zr-based metal–organic framework (MOF), UiO-66-NH2, was initially functionalized with N,N′-dibutyl imidazolium ionic liquid (UiO-66-NH2-ILBr–), and then urea was attached to the ionic liquid (IL) to form a task-specific IL. Bromide was exchanged with tetrafluoroborate and the catalyst exhibits excellent performance for the synthesis of oximes. The ionic liquid/urea coupling showed a synergistic effect on the efficiency of the reaction. The supported catalyst system was recycled simply by filtration and reused for five times without significant decrease in its activity. The catalyst was characterized with PXRD, FTIR, TGA, XPS, BET, FE-SEM, EDS, elemental mapping and elemental analysis (CHN). Graphic Abstract: MOF/IL/urea catalytic system was used for the synthesis of oximes[Figure not available: see fulltext.].
