Diradicals Photogeneration from Chloroaryl-Substituted Carboxylic Acids.

ABSTRACT: With the aim of generating new, thermally inaccessible diradicals, potentially able to induce a double-strand DNA cleavage, the photochemistry of a set of chloroaryl-substituted carboxylic acids in polar media was investigated. The photoheterolytic cleavage of the Ar-Cl bond occurred in each case to form the corresponding triplet phenyl cations. Under basic conditions, the photorelease of the chloride anion was accompanied by an intramolecular electron-transfer from the carboxylate group to the aromatic radical cationic site to give a diradical species. This latter intermediate could then undergo CO₂ loss in a structure-dependent fashion, according to the stability of the resulting diradical, or abstract a hydrogen atom from the medium. In aqueous environment at physiological pH (pH=7.3), both a phenyl cation and a diradical chemistry was observed. The mechanistic scenario and the role of the various intermediates (aryl cations and diradicals) involved in the process was supported by computational analysis.

Preparation, structural elucidation and biocidal applications of trimethyltin(IV) complexes derived from substituted carboxylic acids.

Project description:A series of trimethyltin(IV) carboxylates (1-7), having general formula [(CH3)3SnOOCR], where R = 3-CF3C6H4- (1), 3,4-(OCH2CH3)2 C6H3- (2), 3-FC6H4- (3), 4-ClC6H5- (4), 2,4-(OCH3)2C6H3- (5), 4-NO2C6H4- (6), 5-CH3C4H2N2- (7) have been synthesized and are characterized by using analytical techniques like, FT-IR, 1H, 13C and 119Sn NMR spectroscopy in addition to elemental analyses. To validate the structural motif, one of the complex (2) was also analyzed by single crystal XRD technique. The single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the molecular species exist in one dimensional polymeric chain, wherein five coordinated tin is attached to two oxygens of the carboxyl and three carbon atoms of CH3 groups, whereas the bond angles for C-Sn-C (117.20-121.65°), C-Sn-O (87.87-98.60°) and O-Sn-O (173.75°) lie in the predictable range of distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. All the synthesized complexes were also subjected to preliminary screening for various biocidal applications such as antimicrobial, anti-diabetic, protein kinase inhibition and brine shrimp lethality test to check their efficacy. The compound 6 exhibits very good antibacterial activity having MIC value 6.25 μg/mL against K. pneumoniae, whereas antidiabetic and protein kinase inhibition data revealed that 1 and 2 may serve as good to moderately effective inhibitors, respectively.

Azaheterocyclic diphenylmethanol chiral solvating agents for the NMR chiral discrimination of alpha-substituted carboxylic acids.

Project description:A series of small-membered heterocycle probes, so-called azaheterocycle-containing diphenylmethanol chiral solvating agents (CSAs), have been developed for NMR enantiodiscrimination. These chiral sensors were readily synthesized were inexpensive and efficiently used for the chiral analysis of alpha-substituted carboxylic acids. The sensing method was operationally simple and the processing was straightforward. Notably, we propose (S)-aziridinyl diphenylmethanol as a promising CSA, which has excellent chiral discriminating properties and offers multiple detectable possibilities pertaining to the 1H NMR signals of diagnostic split protons (including 25 examples, up to 0.194 ppm, 77.6 Hz). Its ability to detect the molecular recognition of fluorinated carboxylic acids were further investigated, with a good level of discrimination via the 19F NMR spectroscopic analysis. In addition, an accurate enantiomeric excess (ee) analysis of the p-methoxyl-mandelic acid with different optical compositions have been calculated based on the integration of well-separated proton signals.

Naphthyl-Substituted Indole and Pyrrole Carboxylic Acids as Effective Antibiotic Potentiators-Inhibitors of Bacterial Cystathionine γ-Lyase.

Project description:Over the past decades, the problem of bacterial resistance to most antibiotics has become a serious threat to patients' survival. Nevertheless, antibiotics of a novel class have not been approved since the 1980s. The development of antibiotic potentiators is an appealing alternative to the challenging process of searching for new antimicrobials. Production of H2S-one of the leading defense mechanisms crucial for bacterial survival-can be influenced by the inhibition of relevant enzymes: bacterial cystathionine γ-lyase (bCSE), bacterial cystathionine β-synthase (bCBS), or 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (MST). The first one makes the main contribution to H2S generation. Herein, we present data on the synthesis, in silico analyses, and enzymatic and microbiological assays of novel bCSE inhibitors. Combined molecular docking and molecular dynamics analyses revealed a novel binding mode of these ligands to bCSE. Lead compound 2a manifested strong potentiating activity when applied in combination with some commonly used antibiotics against multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The compound was found to have favorable in vitro absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity parameters. The high effectiveness and safety of compound 2a makes it a promising candidate for enhancing the activity of antibiotics against high-priority pathogens.

Deoxygenative trifluoromethylthiolation of carboxylic acids.

Project description:Here we describe a deoxygenative trifluoromethylthiolation method that yields trifluoromethyl thioesters from readily available carboxylic acids. The method is built upon an "umpolung" strategy where triphenylphosphine is used to first activate an electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent and then serves as an oxygen acceptor for the deoxygenation. The method is mild, efficient, broad-scope, and tolerant. It can be applied for the late-stage functionalization of numerous natural products and drug molecules containing a carboxylic acid group. The trifluoromethyl thioesters can be converted into trifluoromethyl thioethers by Pd-catalyzed decarbonylation.

Direct deoxygenative borylation of carboxylic acids.

Project description:Carboxylic acids are readily available, structurally diverse and shelf-stable; therefore, converting them to the isoelectronic boronic acids, which play pivotal roles in different settings, would be highly enabling. In contrast to the well-recognised decarboxylative borylation, the chemical space of carboxylic-to-boronic acid transformation via deoxygenation remains underexplored due to the thermodynamic and kinetic inertness of carboxylic C-O bonds. Herein, we report a deoxygenative borylation reaction of free carboxylic acids or their sodium salts to synthesise alkylboronates under metal-free conditions. Promoted by a uniquely Lewis acidic and strongly reducing diboron reagent, bis(catecholato)diboron (B2cat2), a library of aromatic carboxylic acids are converted to the benzylboronates. By leveraging the same borylative manifold, a facile triboration process with aliphatic carboxylic acids is also realised, diversifying the pool of available 1,1,2-alkyl(trisboronates) that were otherwise difficult to access. Detailed mechanistic studies reveal a stepwise C-O cleavage profile, which could inspire and encourage future endeavours on more appealing reductive functionalisation of oxygenated feedstocks.

Photocatalytic direct borylation of carboxylic acids.

Project description:The preparation of high value-added boronic acids from cheap and plentiful carboxylic acids is desirable. To date, the decarboxylative borylation of carboxylic acids is generally realized through the extra step synthesized redox-active ester intermediate or in situ generated carboxylic acid covalent derivatives above 150 °C reaction temperature. Here, we report a direct decarboxylative borylation method of carboxylic acids enabled by visible-light catalysis and that does not require any extra stoichiometric additives or synthesis steps. This operationally simple process produces CO2 and proceeds under mild reaction conditions, in terms of high step economy and good functional group compatibility. A guanidine-based biomimetic active decarboxylative mechanism is proposed and rationalized by mechanistic studies. The methodology reported herein should see broad application extending beyond borylation.
