Seven-Membered Lactam Derivatives of Podophyllotoxins as New Pesticidal Agents.

ABSTRACT: As a continuation of our efforts to discover and develop natural-product-based insecticidal agents, three novel and unusual 7-membered lactam derivatives of podophyllotoxin were prepared by thionyl chloride-mediated ring-expanded Beckmann rearrangement. The steric configurations of 3a-c were unambiguously identified by X-ray crystallography. It demonstrated that the configuration of the picropodophyllotoxin C4-oximes could also be confirmed by the corresponding C-ring expansion products via Beckmann rearrangement. Moreover, it was obviously further testified that when picropodophyllones reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride, only E configuration of picropodophyllotoxin C4-oximes was selectively produced. Compounds 3b and 3c showed more potent pesticidal activity than toosendanin against oriental armyworm, Mythimna separata (Walker).

Seven-Membered Cyclic Potassium Diamidoalumanyls.

Project description:The seven-membered cyclic potassium alumanyl species, [{SiNMes }AlK]2 [{SiNMes }={CH2 SiMe2 N(Mes)}2 ; Mes=2,4,6-Me3 C6 H2 ], which adopts a dimeric structure supported by flanking K-aryl interactions, has been isolated either by direct reduction of the iodide precursor, [{SiNMes }AlI], or in a stepwise manner via the intermediate dialumane, [{SiNMes }Al]2 . Although the intermediate dialumane has not been observed by reduction of a Dipp-substituted analogue (Dipp=2,6-i-Pr2 C6 H3 ), partial oxidation of the potassium alumanyl species, [{SiNDipp }AlK]2 , where {SiNDipp }={CH2 SiMe2 N(Dipp)}2 , provided the extremely encumbered dialumane [{SiNDipp }Al]2 . [{SiNDipp }AlK]2 reacts with toluene by reductive activation of a methyl C(sp3 )-H bond to provide the benzyl hydridoaluminate, [{SiNDipp }AlH(CH2 Ph)]K, and as a nucleophile with BPh3 and RN=C=NR (R=i-Pr, Cy) to yield the respective Al-B- and Al-C-bonded potassium aluminaborate and alumina-amidinate products. The dimeric structure of [{SiNDipp }AlK]2 can be disrupted by partial or complete sequestration of potassium. Equimolar reactions with 18-crown-6 result in the corresponding monomeric potassium alumanyl, [{SiNDipp }Al-K(18-cr-6)], which provides a rare example of a direct Al-K contact. In contrast, complete encapsulation of the potassium cation of [{SiNDipp }AlK]2 , either by an excess of 18-cr-6 or 2,2,2-cryptand, allows the respective isolation of bright orange charge-separated species comprising the 'free' [{SiNDipp }Al]- alumanyl anion. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations performed on this moiety indicate HOMO-LUMO energy gaps in the of order 200-250 kJ mol-1 .

One-Pot Synthesis of Seven-Membered Heterocyclic Derivatives of Diazepines Involving Copper-Catalyzed Rearrangement Cascade Allyl-Amination.

Project description:A novel and efficient method has been proposed for the synthesis of 1,4-benzodiazepine-5-ones from o-nitrobenzoic N-allylamides by using molybdenyl acetylacetonate and copper(II) trifluoromethanesulfonate as catalysts in the presence of triphenylphosphine. This synthesis process involves nitrene formation, C-H bond insertion, C═C bond rearrangement, and C-N bond formation cascade reactions via copper- and molybdenum-catalyzed mediation. The method features a wide substrate scope and a moderate to high yield (up to 90%), exhibiting the possibility for practical applications.

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Thienylpyridyl- and Thioether-Containing Acetamides and Their Derivatives as Pesticidal Agents.

Project description:Referring to the structural information of the "hit" compound A from the reported pharmacophore-based virtual screening, a series of novel thienylpyridyl- and thioether/sulfoxide/sulfone-containing acetamide derivatives have been designed and synthesized. The structures of new compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. The single-crystal structure of A was firstly reported. All the new synthesized compounds were evaluated for insecticidal activities on Mythimna separata Walker and Plutella xylostella L. Through a step-by-step structural optimization, the high insecticidal agents, especially towards Plutella xylostella L., have been found, and thienylpyridyl- and sulfone/thioether-containing acetamides Iq, Io, Ib and A, which are comparable with the control insecticides cartap, triflumuron and chlorantraniliprole in the present study, can be used as novel lead structures for new insecticides innovation research. In addition, some of the compounds, e.g., A, Ih, Id, Io and Iq, also exhibited favourable fungicidal activities against Physalospora piricola, Rhizoctonia cerealis and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and would provide useful guidance for the design and development of new fungicides.

New Histamine-Related Five-Membered N-Heterocycle Derivatives as Carbonic Anhydrase I Activators.

Project description:A series of histamine (HST)-related compounds were synthesized and tested for their activating properties on five physiologically relevant human Carbonic Anhydrase (hCA) isoforms (I, II, Va, VII and XIII). The imidazole ring of HST was replaced with different 5-membered heterocycles and the length of the aliphatic chain was varied. For the most interesting compounds some modifications on the terminal amino group were also performed. The most sensitive isoform to activation was hCA I (KA values in the low micromolar range), but surprisingly none of the new compounds displayed activity on hCA II. Some derivatives (1, 3a and 22) displayed an interesting selectivity for activating hCA I over hCA II, Va, VII and XIII.

New benzenesulphonohydrazide derivatives as potential antitumour agents.

Project description:Cancer treatment remains a serious challenge worldwide. Thus, finding novel antitumour agents is of great importance. In the present study, nine new benzenesulphonohydrazide derivatives (1-9) were synthesized, and the chemical structures of the obtained compounds were confirmed by spectral analysis methods, including IR, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and 13C NMR. Experimental lipophilicity values were established using reversed phase-high performance thin layer chromatography. The antiproliferative activity of the synthesized compounds was tested against three tumour cell lines (769-P, HepG2 and NCI-H2170) and one normal cell line (Vero). Among the newly developed molecules, compound 4 exhibited generally the highest cytotoxicity across all tumour cell lines, and it was highly selective. However, higher selectivity towards the tested cancer cell lines was observed using compound 2, when compared with compound 4, which also exhibited significant antiproliferative activity against these tumour cells. In 769-P cells, compounds 5 and 6 were the most selective among all tested compounds. Compound 5 exhibited high cytotoxicity with an estimated IC50 value of 1.94 µM. In the NCI-H2170 cell line, compound 7 was the most cytotoxic and the most selective. In brief, the combination of fluorine and bromine substituents at the phenyl ring showed the most promising results, exerting high cytotoxicity and selectivity towards cancer cells. The renal adenocarcinoma cell line (769-P) appeared to be the most sensitive to the anticancer properties of the novel benzenesulphonohydrazones.

Carboalumination of Seven-Membered-Ring <i>trans</i>-Alkenes.

Project description:Seven-membered-ring trans-alkenes undergo rapid hydro- and carboalumination reactions in the absence of a catalyst with complete regio- and diastereoselectivity. Control experiments, including deuterium labeling, adding radical inhibitors, and using a radical clock, suggest that these reactions proceed by a concerted mechanism. The products of the reaction possess a new carbon-aluminum bond that can then undergo subsequent transformations, particularly oxidation, providing functionalized products as single stereoisomers.

Novel 4-Methylumbelliferone Amide Derivatives: Synthesis, Characterization and Pesticidal Activities.

Project description:A series of novel 4-methylumbelliferone amide derivatives were designed, synthesized and characterized by ¹H NMR, 13C NMR and HR-ESI-MS. The structures of compounds 4bd and 4be (compounds named by authors) were further confirmed by X-ray single crystal diffraction. The acaricidal, herbicidal and antifungal activities of the synthesized compounds were assayed for their potential use as pesticide. The results indicated that compounds 4bi, 4ac and 4bd were strong acaricidals against Tetranychus cinnabarinus, with 72h corrected mortalities of greater than 80% at 1000 mg/L. Meanwhile, compounds 4bh and 4bf exhibit the strongest inhibition against the taproot development of Digitaria sanguinalis and Chenopodium glaucum, and were even more potent than the commercial herbicide Acetochlor against D. sanguinalis. In addition, compounds 4bk, 4bh and 4bp showed the highest antifungal activity against the mycelium growth of Valsa mali, which makes them more effective than commercial fungicide Carbendazim.

Efficient Palladium-Catalyzed Aerobic Oxidative Carbocyclization to Seven-Membered Heterocycles.

Project description:The use of molecular oxygen in palladium-catalyzed oxidation reactions is highly widespread in organic chemistry. However, the direct reoxidation of palladium by O2 is often kinetically unfavored, thus leading the deactivation of the palladium catalyst during the catalytic cycle. In the present work, we report a highly selective palladium-catalyzed carbocyclization of bisallenes to seven-membered heterocycles under atmospheric pressure of O2 . The use of a homogenous hybrid catalyst (Co(salophen)-HQ, HQ=hydroquinone) significantly promotes efficient electron transfer between the palladium catalyst and O2 through a low-energy pathway. This aerobic oxidative transformation shows broad substrate scope and functional group compatibility and allowed the preparation of O-containing seven-membered rings in good yields in most cases.

New diphenylphosphane derivatives of ketoconazole are promising antifungal agents.

Project description:Four new derivatives of ketoconazole (Ke) were synthesized: diphenylphosphane (KeP), and phosphane chalcogenides: oxide (KeOP), sulphide (KeSP) and selenide (KeSeP). These compounds proved to be promising antifungal compounds towards Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans, especially in synergy with fluconazole. Simulations of docking to the cytochrome P450 14?-demethylase (azoles' primary molecular target) proved that the new Ke derivatives are capable of inhibiting this enzyme by binding to the active site. Cytotoxicity towards hACSs (human adipose-derived stromal cells) of the individual compounds was studied and the IC50 values were higher than the MIC50 for C. albicans and S. cerevisiae. KeP and KeOP increased the level of the p21 gene transcript but did not change the level of p53 gene transcript, a major regulator of apoptosis, and decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential. Taken together, the results advocate that the new ketoconazole derivatives have a similar mechanism of action and block the lanosterol 14?-demethylase and thus inhibit the production of ergosterol in C. albicans membranes.

Seven-membered rings through metal-free rearrangement mediated by hypervalent iodine.

Project description:A versatile and metal-free approach for the synthesis of carbocycles and of heterocycles bearing seven- and eight-membered rings is described. The strategy is based on ring expansion of 1-vinylcycloalkanols (or the corresponding silyl or methyl ether) mediated by the hypervalent iodine reagent HTIB (PhI(OH)OTs). Reaction conditions can be easily adjusted to give ring expansion products bearing different functional groups. A route to medium-ring lactones was also developed.
