, p. 1541 - 1544 (1995)
The preparation of 2--1-(p-nitrophenyl)-1,2-epoxyheptan-3-one and its subsequent reduction by baker's yeast to the 2,3-diol is described.The mechanism of the reduction of the epoxide was determined using the β-(2)H isotope shift in 13C n.m.r. and mass spectroscopy and appears to be due to a novel enzyme catalysed hydride transfer from cofactors such as NADH or NADPH.

Abstract: The present research paper reports the convenient synthesis, successful characterization, in vitro antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant potency and biocompatibility of N-acyl-morpholine-4-carbothioamides (5a–5j). The biocompatible derivatives were found to be highly active against the tested bacterial and fungal strains. Moreover, some of the screened N-acyl-morpholine-4-carbothioamides exhibited excellent antioxidant potential. Docking simulation provided additional information about possibilities of their inhibitory potential against RNA. It has been predicted by in silico investigation of the binding pattern that compounds 5a and 5j can serve as the potential surrogate for design of novel and potent antibacterial agents. The results for the in vitro bioassays were promising with the identification of compounds 5a and 5j as the lead and selective candidate for RNA inhibition. Results of the docking computations further ascertained the inhibitory potential of compound 5a. Based on the in silico studies, it can be suggested that compounds 5a and 5j can serve as a structural model for the design of antibacterial agents with better inhibitory potential. Graphic abstract: Binding mode of compound 5j inside the active site of RNA in 3D space. 5j displayed highest antibacterial potential than the reference drug ampicillin with ZOI 10.50?mm against Staphylococcus aureus. 5j also displayed highest antifungal potential than the reference drug amphotericin B with ZOI 18.20?mm against Fusarium solani.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Human neutrophils are the most abundant leukocytes and have been considered as the first line of defence in the innate immune system. Selective imaging of live neutrophils will facilitate the in situ study of neutrophils in infection or inflammation events as well as clinical diagnosis. However, small-molecule-based probes for the discrimination of live neutrophils among different granulocytes in human blood have yet to be reported. Herein, we report the first fluorescent probe NeutropG for the specific distinction and imaging of active neutrophils. The selective staining mechanism of NeutropG is elucidated as metabolism-oriented live-cell distinction (MOLD) through lipid droplet biogenesis with the help of ACSL and DGAT. Finally, NeutropG is applied to accurately quantify neutrophil levels in fresh blood samples by showing a high correlation with the current clinical method.

The present study reports the convenient synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, bio-assays and computational evaluation of a novel series of N-acyl-1H-imidazole-1-carbothioamides. The screened derivatives displayed excellent antioxidant activity, moderate antibacterial and antifungal potential. The screened derivatives were found to be highly biocompatible against hRBCs. Molecular docking ascertained the mechanism and mode of action towards the molecular target delineating that ligands and complexes were stabilized at the active site by electrostatic and hydrophobic forces in accordance to the corresponding experimental results. Docking simulation provided additional information about the possibilities of inhibitory potential of the compounds against RNA. Computational evaluation predicted that N-acyl-1H-imidazole-1-carbothioamides 5c and 5g can serve as potential surrogates for hit to lead generation and design of novel antioxidant and antibacterial agents.
3-Aminobenzenesulfonamides incorporating acylthiourea moieties selectively inhibit the tumor-associated carbonic anhydrase isoform IX over the off-target isoforms I, II and IV

We describe the synthesis of a series of novel 1-aroyl/acyl-3-(3-aminosulfonylphenyl) thioureas (4a–k) acting as human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitors. Reaction of alkyl/aryl isothiocyanates with 3-aminobenzenesulfonamide afforded a series of the title compounds incorporating a variety of short as well as highly lipophilic long tails. The newly synthesized sulfonamides were evaluated against 4 physiologically relevant CA isoforms (hCA I, II, IV, and IX). Several compounds showed interesting inhibitory activity. The tumor-associated hCA IX was the most sensitive isoform to inhibition with these compounds, with KIs in the range of 21.5–44.0 nM and selectivity ratios over the major cytosolic isoform hCA II in the range of 3.35–37.3. The sulfonamides incorporating the phenylacetylthioureido and pentadecanoylthioureido moieties were the most hCA IX-selective inhibitors detected in this work, making them of interest for further investigations.

Described herein is the development of a new entry of acylnitrenoid precursors for γ-lactam synthesis via an intramolecular C-H amidation reaction. Upon Ir catalysis, N-benzoyloxyamides serve as efficient substrates to afford 5-membered amides. Mechanistic studies revealed that the generation of a putative Ir-carbonylnitrenoid via N-O bond cleavage is facilitated by the chelation of countercations. This protocol offers a convenient and step-economic route to γ-lactams starting from the corresponding carboxylic acids.

We report the first electrochemical strategy to synthesize functionalized naphthalene derivatives through [4+2] annulation—rearrangement–aromatization from styrenes under mild conditions. The electrolysis does not require metals, oxidants and high valence substrates, indicating the atom and step-economy ideals. The dehydrodimer produced through [4+2] cycloaddition of 4-methoxy α-methyl styrene is isolated and proved to be the key intermediate for the following oxydehydrogenation to form carbon cation, which undergoes rearrangement–aromatization to afford the final products. This reaction represents a powerful access to construct multi-substituted naphthalene blocks in a single step.

Carbohydrate derived low molecular weight organogelators are interesting compounds with many potential applications. Selective functionalization of the different hydroxyl substituents on d-glucose and d-glucosamine resulted in small molecular gelators. Previously we have found that the C-2 acylated derivatives including esters and carbamates of 4,6-O-benzylidene protected glucose and glucosamine derivatives have shown remarkable applications as molecular gelators. In this research, in order to probe the structural influence of sugar derivatives on molecular self-assembly, we introduced acylation functional groups to the 3-hydroxyl group of 4,6-O-benzylidene acetal protected N-acetyl glucosamine derivatives. A library of fourteen ester derivatives was synthesized and characterized. The ester derivatives typically formed gels in pump oil and aqueous mixtures of dimethyl sulfoxide or ethanol. The resulting gels were characterized using optical microscopy, and rheology, etc. All alkyl ester derivatives were gelators for pump oil. A short chain ester derivative was able to form gels in a few different oils and the corresponding oil water mixtures phase selectively. The compound was also used to trap naproxen sodium and formed a stable co-gel. The controlled release of the drug from the gel to the aqueous phase was analyzed using UV-vis spectroscopy. These results show that the functionalization at the 3-OH position of the N-acetyl glucosamine derivative is a feasible strategy in designing new classes of organogelators.
