- Metal-free reduction of unsaturated carbonyls, quinones, and pyridinium salts with tetrahydroxydiboron/water
-
A series of unsaturated carbonyls, quinones, and pyridinium salts have been effectively reduced to the corresponding saturated carbonyls, dihydroxybenzenes, and hydropyridines in moderate to high yields with tetrahydroxydiboron/water as a mild, convenient, and metal-free reduction system. Deuterium-labeling experiments have revealed this protocol to be an exclusive transfer hydrogenation process from water. This journal is

- Efficient and chemoselective reduction of pyridines to tetrahydropyridines and piperidines via rhodium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation
-
Promoted by iodide anion the rhodium complex dimer, [Cp RhCl 2]2, catalyzes efficiently the transfer hydrogenation of various quaternary pyridinium salts under mild conditions, affording not only piperidines but also 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridines in a highly chemoselective fashion, depending on the substitution pattern at the pyridinium ring. The reduction is conducted in azeotropic formic acid/triethylamine (HCOOH-Et 3N) mixture at 40 °C, with catalyst loadings as low as 0.005mol% being feasible. Copyright

- New anti-MRSA and anti-VRE carbapenems: Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of 1β-metyl-2-(thiazol-2-ylthio)carbapenems
-
Discovery of novel antimicrobial agents effective against infections caused by drug-resistant pathogens is an important objective. In order to find a new parenteral carbapenem antibiotic, which has potent antibacterial activity especially against methicillin-resistant staphylococci, vancomycin-resistant enterococci and penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, a series of 1β-methylcarbapenems with thiazol-2-ylthio groups at the C-2 position have been synthesized. Structure-activity relationships were investigated which led to SM-197436 (27), SM-232721 (44) and SM-232724 (41), being selected for further evaluation.
