Carboxylic acid reductases (CARs) catalyze the reduction of a broad range of carboxylic acids to aldehydes using the cofactors adenosine triphosphate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, and have become attractive biocatalysts for organic synthesis. Mechanistic understanding of CARs was used to expand reaction scope, generating biocatalysts for amide bond formation from carboxylic acid and amine. CARs demonstrated amidation activity for various acids and amines. Optimization of reaction conditions, with respect to pH and temperature, allowed for the synthesis of the anticonvulsant ilepcimide with up to 96 % conversion. Mechanistic studies using site-directed mutagenesis suggest that, following initial enzymatic adenylation of substrates, amidation of the carboxylic acid proceeds by direct reaction of the acyl adenylate with amine nucleophiles.

A variety of prop-2-ynylamides have been carbonylated under oxidative conditions to give oxazolines, oxazolines with chelating groups, and bisoxazolines bearing an (alkoxycarbonyl)methylene chain at the 5 position in good yields. The cyclization-alkoxycarbonylation process was carried out in alcoholic media at 50-70°C and under 24 bar pressure of 3:1 carbon monoxide/air in the presence of catalytic amounts of 10% Pd/C or PdI2 in conjunction with KI. Cyclization occurred by anti attack of an oxygen function on the palladium-coordinated triple bond, followed by stereospecific alkoxycarbonylation, strictly resulting in E-stereochemistry. The structures of representative oxazolines and bisoxazolines have been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis.

Chemical modification of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) by the replacement of chlorine atom presents a considerable interest in this work. In the first phase, PVC was partially azided with a sodium azide. Click-chemistry based on Copper (I)-catalyzed Huisgen'
Carboxylic Acid Deoxyfluorination and One-Pot Amide Bond Formation Using Pentafluoropyridine (PFP)

This work describes the application of pentafluoropyridine (PFP), a cheap commercially available reagent, in the deoxyfluorination of carboxylic acids to acyl fluorides. The acyl fluorides can be formed from a range of acids under mild conditions. We also demonstrate that PFP can be utilized in a one-pot amide bond formation via in situ generation of acyl fluorides. This one-pot deoxyfluorination amide bond-forming reaction gives ready access to amides in yields of ≤94%.

Abstract: In order to discover novel anti-inflammatory agents, three series of compounds obtained by appending 1,2,3-triazole moieties on ursolic acid were designed and synthesized. All compounds have been screened for their anti-inflammatory activity by using an ear edema model. The potent anti-inflammatory compound was subjected to in vitro cyclooxygenase COX-1/COX-2 inhibition assays. In general, the derivatives were found to be potent anti-inflammatory activity. Especially, the compound 11b exhibited the strongest activity of all of the compounds prepared, with 82.81% inhibition after intraperitoneal administration, which was better than celecoxib as a positive control. Molecular docking results unclose the rationale for the interaction of the compound 11b with COX-2 enzyme. Further studies revealed that compound 11b exhibited effective COX-2 inhibitory activity, with half-maximal inhibitor concentration (IC50) value of 1.16?μM and selectivity index (SI = 64.66) value close to that of celecoxib (IC50 = 0.93?μM, SI = 65.47). Taken together, these results could suggest a promising chemotype for development of new COX-2-targeting anti-inflammatory agent. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

A selection of gold-catalyzed reactions was examined in a kinetic study on the influence of water on the rate constant. Two intramolecular reactions and one intermolecular reaction, which proceed via proton transfer and/or protodeauration steps, were inve
