There is an urgent need for new antibiotics to mitigate the existential threat posed by antibiotic resistance. Within the ketolide class, solithromycin has emerged as one of the most promising candidates for further development. Crystallographic studies of bacterial ribosomes and ribosomal subunits complexed with solithromycin have shed light on the nature of molecular interactions (π-stacking and H-bonding) between from the biaryl side-chain of the drug and key residues in the 50S ribosomal subunit. We have designed and synthesized a library of solithromycin analogs to study their structure-activity relationships (SAR) in tandem with new computational studies. The biological activity of each analog was evaluated in terms of ribosomal affinity (Kd determined by fluorescence polarization), as well as minimum inhibitory concentration assays (MICs). Density functional theory (DFT) studies of a simple binding site model identify key H-bonding interactions that modulate the potency of solithromycin analogs.

A highly regioselective Pd-catalyzed carboxyl directed decarboxylative ortho-C-H halogenation of cheap o-nitrobenzoic acids with NaX (X = I, Br) under aerobic conditions has been established. The utility of the method has been demonstrated by the gram-scale reaction and derivatization of the product. Experimental results have confirmed Pd and Bi played critical roles in the transformation and indicated the transformation might proceed via 2-halo-6-nitrobenzoic acid derivative intermediate.
Acidic ionic liquid supported on silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles as a green catalyst for one-pot diazotization-halogenation of the aromatic amines

Acidic ionic liquid was immobilized on silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SILnP) and used as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the diazotization-iodination reaction of different aromatic amines under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. The diazonium salts that are formed by this catalyst are stable at room temperature and react rapidly with sodium iodide to produce aryl iodides in good to excellent yields. This method has some advantages such as low pollution, rapid access to products, simple work-up and easy separation of catalyst from the reaction mixture.
