5-Hydroxyindoles are privileged structures that form part of various bioactive compounds. The Nenitzescu reaction of quinones and enamines is one of the most powerful methods to obtain 5-hydroxyindoles. In this work, we have applied the Nenitzescu reaction to 2-(2-chloropyrid-3-yl)benzoquinones. Mixtures of regioisomers were obtained that could be separated in the 4- and 6-substituted analogues, and then cyclized separately in a metal-free base-catalyzed reaction, affording novel tetracyclic indole derivatives. These are indeed the first examples reported in the literature of the linear pyrido[3′,2′ : 4,5]furo[3,2-b]indole and angular 1H-pyrido[2′,3′ : 4,5]furo[2,3-c]indole systems. The regioselectivity and the yield of the Nenitzescu reaction were found to be dependent on the N-substituent at the enamine. Furthermore, we analyzed the UV-Vis and PL spectra of the new systems, and this was supported by DFT calculations, allowing us to compare the properties of angular compared to linearly shaped compounds.

Thiamine hydrochloride (VitB1) has been found to be an efficient catalyst for the multicomponent synthesis of highly functionalized tetrahydropyridines from the reaction of β-ketoester, aromatic aldehydes and anilines. VitB1 is easily available, cheap, and eco benign.

We synthesized all major saturated and unsaturated 2-alkyl-4(1H)-quinoloneN-oxides ofPseudomonasandBurkholderia, quantified their native production levels and characterized their antibiotic activities against competingStaphylococcus aureus. We demonstrate that quinolone core methylation and position of unsaturation in the alkyl-chain dictate antibiotic potency which supports the proposed mechanism of action.
