TITLE PAGE A Novel Ring Oxidation of 4- or 5-Substituted 2H-Oxazole to Corresponding 2- Oxazolone Catalyzed by Cytosolic Aldehyde Oxidase

Amphiphilic allylation of arylidene-1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-one using bis-π-allylpalladium complexes: an approach to synthesis of cyclohexyl and cyclohexenyl α-amino acids.

An efficient method for synthesis of cyclohexyl and cyclohexenyl α-amino acids via palladium-catalyzed three-component assemblies followed by ring-closing metathesis (RCM) is described. The present catalytic reaction is successfully extended to substituted benzylidene azlactones 2a-j RCH=(1,3-oxazole): R = alkyl or aryl. The amphiphilic bis-allylation of these substrates has been achieved by re...

One-pot synthesis of triazolo[1,2-a]indazole-triones catalyzed by a novel magnetically and reusable green catalyst of Preyssler

An atom-efficient, eco-friendly, solvent-free, high yielding, multicomponent green strategy to synthesize triazolo[1,2-a]indazole-triones derivatives by the one-pot condensation of aldehyde, dimedone, and phenyl urazole under microwave Irradiationis presented. Reactions catalyzed by A novel nanomagnetic organic-inorganic hybrid catalyst (Fe@Si-Gu-Prs) was prepared by the chemical anchoring of P...

Identification of the Mouse Aldehyde Dehydrogenases Important in Aldophosphamide Detoxification1

Aldophosphamide, the penultimate cytotoxic metabolite of cyclophosphamide, can be detoxified by an oxidation reaction catalyzed by certain aldehyde dehydrogenases. The selective toxicity of cyclophosphamide is due, at least in part, to a greater expression of the relevant aldehyde dehydrogenase activity in normal cells relative to that expressed in certain tumor cells. Not known at the onset of...

Total synthesis of siphonazole and its O-methyl derivative, structurally unusual bis-oxazole natural products.

The details of the first syntheses of the unusual bis-oxazole natural products siphonazole and its O-methyl derivative are reported. The cinnamyl substituted oxazole was constructed using diazocarbonyl chemistry, whereby the cinnamamide was reacted with the rhodium carbene derived from methyl 2-diazo-3-oxobutanoate to give a beta-ketoamide that was cyclodehydrated to the corresponding oxazole-4...
