Fluorinated 1,2,4-triazoles 3 and benzenesulfonyl urea and thiourea derivatives as well as their cyclic sulfonylthioureas 4–10 were prepared as antimicrobial agents. The chemistry involves the condensation of sulfanilamide derivatives 1 with trifluoroacetic anhydride to give N-di(trifluoroacetyl)sulfonamides 2 which upon reaction with hydrazine hydrate afforded the corresponding triazole deriva...

Traceless solid-phase synthesis of 1,3,7,8-tetrasubstituted xanthine (1,3,7,8-tetrasubstituted 1H-purine-2,6(3H,7H)-dione) derivatives has been developed. The solid-phase synthetic route began on a solid supported N'-cyano-N-substituted carbamimidothioate, which was prepared from cyanamide, isothiocyanate, and Merrifield resin. After N-alkylation of carbamimidothioate resin with ethyl 2-bromoac...

Vilsmeier formylation of 2-(1-phenylhydrazonoethyl)naphtho[2,1-b]furan (2) gave 3-naphtho[2,1-b]furan-2-yl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (3), which was reacted with C- and N-nucleophiles to afford naphthofuranpyrazol derivatives 4-8. Treatment of 2-[(3-(naphtho[2,1-b]furan-2-yl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methylene]-malononitrile (4a) with reactants having active hydrogen and Et₃N gave the ...

In this work, three new quinolone derivatives were prepared by alkylation of 2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-4-carboxylic acid with ethyl 2-bromoacetate. The synthesized compounds 2-4 characterized using FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectrometry. Crystal structure 4 was determined single crystal X-ray diffraction. optimized structures in gas phase, chemical shifts, molecular electrostatic potenti...

The reactivities of the imidazole groups of histidyl residues in sperm whale myoglobin are being studied systematically to achieve a correlation with three-dimensional structure (1, 2). In the sequence between the Eand F-helices there occur 2 histidyl residues, EF4 and EF5, that can be isolated in the same tryptic peptide (3, 4).l It has been shown previously that treatment with bromoacetate be...

The target pyrrolyl-thiazoldin-4-one inhibitor (PEHT) was synthesized by the cyclization of 2-acetylpyrrole thiosemicarbazone with ethyl bromoacetate, and its chemical structure determined different spectroscopic techniques, such as FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR. PEHT performance, a mild steel (MS) corrosion inhibitor, in an acidic solution evaluated mass loss (ML), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP),...

In the present study, starting compound 4 was prepared by deamination of compound 2 in the presence of hypophosphorous acid and sodium nitrite. Treatment of compound 4 with ethyl bromoacetate produced ethyl[3-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-(4-methoxybenzyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl]acetate (5), which was converted to the hydrazide derivative (6) by treatment with hydrazine hydrate. The reaction of compound 6 ...

Microbial niches contain toxic chemicals capable of forcing organisms into periods of intense natural selection to afford survival. Elucidating the mechanisms by which microbes evade environmental threats has direct relevance for understanding and combating the rise of antibiotic resistance. In this study we used a toxic small-molecule, bromoacetate, to model the selective pressures imposed by ...

Vanol is a member of the vaulted biaryl family of ligands and it has been proven to be very effective in a number of asymmetric catalytic reactions. The previous synthesis of vanol, while effective, is limited by the cost of reagents involved. The present work evaluates three different approaches to the synthesis of 3-phenyl-1-naphthol, a key intermediate in the synthesis of vanol. The first ap...
