We report herein a new convergent one pot method for the synthesis of amino benzyl ethers containing a bicyclic amine, derived from different substituted benzyl alcohols and bicyclic amino alcohols such as tropine, pseudotropine, and 3-quinuclidinol, using chlorotrimethylsilane and sodium iodide. In order to avoid the competitive reaction with the nitrogen atom, a solution of the separately prepared alkoxide of tropine, pseudotropine, and 3-quinuclidinol was added to the preformed substituted benzyl iodides and allowed to reflux at 90 °C for 15 h under nitrogen atmosphere. This method provides an efficient alternative of the preparation of amino benzyl ethers in organic synthesis with good yields in comparison with existed methods.

A series of polyacrylonitrile fiber-supported quaternary ammonium salts (PANF-QAS) were prepared and applied to the catalytic reduction of aldehydes, ketones, azides, and benzyl halides in water using NaBH4 as the reducing reagent in a highly efficient, economic, and environmentally benign way. The structure-activity relationships were investigated, which showed that the catalysts made up of quaternary ammonium salts with longer alkyl chains, larger cationic radii and better lipophilicity speed up the reduction reaction to afford the products in excellent yield. Moreover, the optimized catalyst can be applied to the reduction of 1-naphthaldehyde in a continuous flow process with outstanding reactivity and recyclability.

Lipoxygenases (LOXs) and cyclooxygenases (COXs) metabolize poly-unsaturated fatty acids into inflammatory signaling molecules. Modulation of the activity of these enzymes may provide new approaches for therapy of inflammatory diseases. In this study, we screened novel anacardic acid derivatives as modulators of human 5-LOX and COX-2 activity. Interestingly, a novel salicylate derivative 23a was identified as a surprisingly potent activator of human 5-LOX. This compound showed both non-competitive activation towards the human 5-LOX activator adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and non-essential mixed type activation against the substrate linoleic acid, while having no effect on the conversion of the substrate arachidonic acid. The kinetic analysis demonstrated a non-essential activation of the linoleic acid conversion with a KA of 8.65 μM, αKA of 0.38 μM and a β value of 1.76. It is also of interest that a comparable derivative 23d showed a mixed type inhibition for linoleic acid conversion. These observations indicate the presence of an allosteric binding site in human 5-LOX distinct from the ATP binding site. The activatory and inhibitory behavior of 23a and 23d on the conversion of linoleic compared to arachidonic acid are rationalized by docking studies, which suggest that the activator 23a stabilizes linoleic acid binding, whereas the larger inhibitor 23d blocks the enzyme active site.
