Synthesis, antibacterial and anti-MRSA activity, in vivo toxicity and a structure-activity relationship study of a quinoline thiourea

We report the synthesis, antibacterial evaluation of a series of thiourea-containing compounds. 1-(3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3-((S)-(6-methoxyquinolin-4-yl)-((1S,2S,4S,5R)-5-vinylquinuclidin-2-yl)methyl)thiourea 5, was the most active against a rang

Towards an Asymmetric Organocatalytic α-Azidation of β-Ketoesters

Detailed investigations concerning the organocatalytic (asymmetric) α-azidation of prochiral β-ketoesters were carried out. It was shown that the racemic version of such a reaction can either be carried out under oxidative conditions using TMSN3/sub

Catalyst-Controlled Transannular Polyketide Cyclization Cascades: Selective Folding of Macrocyclic Polyketides

The biomimetic synthesis of aromatic polyketides from macrocyclic substrates by means of catalyst-controlled transannular cyclization cascades is described. The macrocyclic substrates, which feature increased stability and fewer conformational states, were thereby transformed into several distinct polyketide scaffolds. The catalyst-controlled transannular cyclizations selectively led to aromatic polyketides with a defined folding and oxygenation pattern, thus emulating β-keto-processing steps of polyketide biosynthesis.

Synthesis of Cyclic Organic Carbonates Using Atmospheric Pressure CO2 and Charge-Containing Thiourea Catalysts

Cycloadditions of epoxides with CO2 to synthesize cyclic five-membered ring organic carbonates are of broad interest from a synthetic, environmental, and green chemistry perspective, and the development of effective catalysts for these transformations is an ongoing challenge. A series of eight charge-containing thiourea salts that catalyze these reactions under mild conditions (i.e., 60 °C and atmospheric CO2 pressure) are reported. Substrate scope and mechanistic studies were also carried out, isotope effects were measured, and a reactive intermediate was isolated revealing a surprising pathway in which a thiourea catalyst serves as a nucleophile in the cleavage of the epoxide ring.

Thiourea-catalyzed aminolysis of N-acyl homoserine lactones

Thiourea catalysts accelerate aminolysis of N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs), molecules integral to bacterial quorum sensing. The catalysts afford rate enhancement of up to 10 times the control in CD3CN. Mild catalysis in other polar aprotic s

Thiourea/proline derivative-catalyzed synthesis of tetrahydrofuran derivatives: A mechanistic view

A thiourea/proline derivative-catalyzed synthesis of linear α-substituted tetrahydrofuran/pyran derivatives starting with lactol substrates is presented. This study demonstrates the utility and potential complications of using (thio)urea/proline cocatalysis as each of these catalysts is necessary to provide the observed reactivity, but a time-dependent decrease in enantioselectivity is observed. New mechanistic insights into (thio)urea/proline cocatalysis are presented.

Double diastereocontrol in bifunctional thiourea organocatalysis: Iterative Michael-Michael-Henry sequence regulated by the configuration of chiral catalysts

The importance and reactivity consequences of the double diastereocontrol in noncovalent bifunctional organocatalysis were studied. The results suggest that the bifunctional thioureas can have synthetic limitations in multicomponent domino or autotandem catalysis. Nevertheless, we provided a means to exploit this behavior and used the configuration of the chiral catalyst as a control element in organo-sequential reactions.
