A direct transformation of aryl esters to secondary benzylic alcohols via tandem Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aromatic 2-pyridyl esters with alkyl zinc reagents and carbonyl group reduction by Ni-H species is achieved. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the Ni-H species is generated in situ via β-hydride elimination of the Negishi reagents. The reaction is catalyzed by bench-stable nickel salts under mild conditions with wide functional group tolerance.

Ethionamide is a key antibiotic prodrug of the second-line chemotherapy regimen to treat tuberculosis. It targets the biosynthesis of mycolic acids thanks to a mycobacterial bioactivation carried out by the Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase EthA, under the control of a transcriptional repressor called EthR. Recently, the drug-like molecule SMARt-420, which triggers a new transcriptional regulator called EthR2, allowed the derepression a cryptic alternative bioactivation pathway of ethionamide. In order to study the bioactivation of a collection of thioisonicotinamides through the two bioactivation pathways, we developed a new two-step chemical pathway that led to the efficient synthesis of eighteen ethionamide analogues. Measurements of the antimycobacterial activity of these derivatives, used alone and in combination with boosters BDM41906 or SMARt-420, suggest that the two different bioactivation pathways proceed via the same mechanism, which implies the formation of similar metabolites. In addition, an electrochemical study of the aliphatic thioisonicotinamide analogues was undertaken to see whether their oxidation potential correlates with their antitubercular activity measured in the presence or in the absence of the two boosters.

CMPF (2-(2-carboxyethyl)-4-methyl-5-propylfuran-3-carboxylic acid) is a metabolite that circulates at high concentrations in type 2 and gestational diabetes patients. Further, human clinical studies suggest it might have a causal role in these diseases. CMPF inhibits insulin secretion in mouse and human islets in vitro and in vivo in rodents. However, the metabolic fate of CMPF and the relationship of structure to effects on insulin secretion have not been significantly studied. The syntheses of CMPF and analogues are described. These include isotopically labeled molecules. Study of these materials in vivo has led to the first observation of a metabolite of CMPF. In addition, a wide range of CMPF analogues have been prepared and characterized in insulin secretion assays using both mouse and human islets. Several molecules that influence insulin secretion in vitro were identified. The molecules described should serve as interesting probes to further study the biology of CMPF.
α-1-C-Butyl-1,4-Dideoxy-1,4-Imino-L-Arabinitol as a second-Generation iminosugar-based oral α-Glucosidase inhibitor for improving postprandial hyperglycemia

We report on the synthesis and the biological evaluation of a series of α-1-C-alkylated 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-l-arabinitol (LAB) derivatives. The asymmetric synthesis of the derivatives was achieved by asymmetric allylic alkylation, ring-closing metathesis, and Negishi cross-coupling as key reactions. α-1-C-Butyl-LAB is a potent inhibitor of intestinal maltase, isomaltase, and sucrase, with IC50 values of 0.13, 4.7, and 0.032 μM, respectively. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometric analysis revealed that this compound differs from miglitol in that it does not influence oligosaccharide processing and the maturation of glycoproteins. A molecular docking study of maltase-glucoamylase suggested that the interaction modes and the orientations of α-1-C-butyl-LAB and miglitol are clearly different. Furthermore, α-1-C-butyl-LAB strongly suppressed postprandial hyperglycemia at an early phase, similar to miglitol in vivo. It is noteworthy that the effective dose was about 10-fold lower than that for miglitol. α-1-C-Butyl-LAB therefore represents a new class of promising compounds that can improve postprandial hyperglycemia.
Synthese et reactivite de quelques organozinciques dans des solvants peu courants en chimie organometallique

The use of solvents strange to organometallic chemistry viz. carbonic or phosphoric esters, or sulfolane allows zinc to react with organic halides, which are usually unreactive towards this metal.The ractions of the organozinc compounds thus synthesised (
