Abstract
Pseudopteroxazole (Ptx) and the pseudopterosins are marine natural products with promising antibacterial potential. While Ptx has attracted interest for its antimycobacterial activity, pseudopterosins are active against several clinically relevant pathogens. Both compound classes exhibit low cytotoxicity and accessibility to targeted synthesis, yet their antibacterial mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, we investigated the modes of action of Ptx and pseudopterosin G (PsG) in Bacillus subtilis employing an unbiased approach that combines gel-based proteomics with a mathematical similarity analysis of response profiles. Proteomic responses to sublethal concentrations of Ptx and PsG were compared to a library of antibiotic stress response profiles revealing that both induce a stress response characteristic for agents targeting the bacterial cell envelope by interfering with membrane-bound steps of cell wall biosynthesis. Microscopy-based assays confirmed that both compounds compromise the integrity of the bacterial cell wall without disrupting the membrane potential. Furthermore, LC-MSE analysis showed that the greater potency of PsG against B. subtilis, reflected in a lower MIC and a more pronounced proteomic response, may be rooted in a more effective association with and penetration of B. subtilis cells. We conclude that Ptx and PsG target the integrity of the gram-positive cell wall.

Abstract
An efficient metal-free synthesis strategy of benzoxazoles was developed via coupling catechols, ammonium acetate, and alkenes/alkynes/ketones. The developed methodology represents an operationally simple, one-pot and large-scale procedure for the preparation of benzoxazole derivatives using molecular iodine as the catalyst. A metal-free one-pot multi-component method for the efficient synthesis of 2-aryl benzoxazoles via coupling of catechols, ammonium acetate and alkenes/alkynes/ketones using an I2–DMSO catalyst system is illustrated.![]()

Abstract
1,3-Oxazole chemicals are a unique class of five-membered monocyclic heteroarenes, containing a nitrogen atom and an oxygen. These alkaloids have attracted extensive attention from medicinal chemists and pharmacologists owing to their diverse arrays of chemical structures and biological activities, and a series of 1,3-oxazole derivatives has been developed into therapeutic agents (e.g., almoxatone, befloxatone, cabotegravir, delpazolid, fenpipalone, haloxazolam, inavolisib). A growing amount of evidence indicates that marine organisms are one of important sources of 1,3-oxazole-containing alkaloids. To improve our knowledge regarding these marine-derived substances, as many as 285 compounds are summarized in this review, which, for the first time, highlights their sources, structural features and biological properties, as well as their biosynthesis and chemical synthesis. Perspective for the future discovery of new 1,3-oxazole compounds from marine organisms is also provided.

Abstract
Due to their pronounced bioactivity and limited availability from natural resources, metabolites of the soft coral Pseudopterogorgia elisabethae, such as erogorgiaene and the pseudopterosines, represent important target molecules for chemical synthesis. We have now developed a particularly short and efficient route towards these marine diterpenes exploiting an operationally convenient enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed hydrovinylation as the chirogenic step. Other noteworthy C-C bond forming transformations include diastereoselective Lewis acid-mediated cyclizations, a Suzuki coupling and a carbonyl ene reaction. Starting from 4-methyl-styrene the anti-tubercular agent (+)-erogorgiaene (>98 % ee) was prepared in only 7 steps with 46 % overall yield. In addition, the synthesis of the pseudopterosin A aglycone was achieved in 12 steps with 30 % overall yield and, surprisingly, was found to exhibit a similar anti-inflammatory activity (inhibition of LPS-induced NF-κB activation) as a natural mixture of pseudopterosins A-D or iso-pseudopterosin A, prepared by β-D-xylosylation of the synthetic aglycone.

Abstract
LC-MS-oriented fractionation of the sponge Aaptos suberitoides resulted in the isolation of four heptacyclic alkaloids, aaptodines A-D (1-4), which contain 9,10-dihydrofuro[2,3-f][1,3]oxazolo[5,4-h]quinolone and 7,8-dihydrocyclopenta[de][1,6]naphthyridine subunits with a spiro carbon atom. The structures were determined on the basis of NMR spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction data analysis aided by electronic circular dichroism calculations and Mosher's method. A biosynthetic pathway for the formation of aaptodines A-D is postulated. Aaptodine D exhibits potent inhibition against osteoclast formation.

Abstract
Catalytic processes in protecting-group-free syntheses of natural products are fast emerging towards achieving the goal of efficiency and economy in total synthesis. Present day sustainable development in synthesis of natural products does not permit the luxury of using stoichiometric reagents and protecting groups. Catalysis and step-economy can contribute significantly toward economy and efficiency of synthesis. This feature article details the ingenious efforts by many researchers in the last couple of years toward concise total syntheses, based on catalytic steps and protecting-group-free-strategies. These would again serve as guidelines in future development of reagents and catalysts aimed at achieving higher efficiency and chemoselectivity to the point that catalysis and protecting-group-free synthesis will be an accepted common practice.

Abstract
To show the synthetic utility of the catalytic C-C activation of less strained substrates, described here are the collective and concise syntheses of the natural products (-)-microthecaline A, (-)-leubehanol, (+)-pseudopteroxazole, (+)-seco-pseudopteroxazole, pseudopterosin A-F and G-J aglycones, and (+)-heritonin. The key step in these syntheses involve a Rh-catalyzed C-C/C-H activation cascade of 3-arylcyclopentanones, which provides a rapid and enantioselective route to access the polysubstituted tetrahydronaphthalene cores presented in these natural products. Other important features include 1) the direct C-H amination of the tetralone substrate in the synthesis of (-)-microthecaline A, 2) the use of phosphoric acid to enhance efficiency and regioselectivity for problematic cyclopentanone substrates in the C-C activation reactions, and 3) the direct conversion of serrulatane into amphilectane diterpenes by an allylic cyclodehydrogenation coupling.

Abstract
The Fe(III)-salen complex has been applied successfully as a catalyst for the novel, simple, efficient, and one-pot multicomponent synthesis of benzoxazole derivatives from catechols, ammonium acetate as the nitrogen source, and aldehydes (nontoxic and cheap alternatives of amines) for the first time. Using this procedure, a wide range of benzoxazoles was successfully synthesized in the presence of a catalyst in EtOH under mild conditions, and all products were obtained in excellent yields. To the best of our knowledge, this method is the first example of the multicomponent synthesis of benzoxazole derivatives using these starting materials. The notable features such as the use of air that is considered as a benign oxidant and EtOH as a green solvent, ease of product separation, readily available and inexpensive aldehydes, and mild conditions make our procedure more efficient and practical for organic synthesis. Moreover, the current protocol is successfully applied to synthesize desirable products on a large scale.

The extracts of two isolates in our library of fungal endophytes, Annulohypoxylon multiforme (TC2-046) from the medicinal plant Juniperus communis and a sterile filamentous isolate (KP1-131DD) from the marine alga Scytosiphon lomentaria, displayed similar antimicrobial bioactivity profiles with notable high activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Bioassay-guided fractionation led to the isolation of poly(3 R,5 R-dihydroxyhexanoic acid) oligomers ranging from the trimer to the 29-mer that exhibited significant and selective inhibition of S. aureus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra in vitro.

Abstract
This preliminary study reports on the synthesis of two new boron-capsaicin derivatives containing either a short or long chain aliphatic tail group using an iridium catalyzed hydroboration reaction with pinacolborane. The boronate ester groups reside on the terminal position of the tail group and are necessary for the bioactivity of these compounds. Indeed, both compounds showed considerable activity against two Gram-positive bacteria, including Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus. Vancomycin is considered the last resort medication for the treatment of septicemia, and new antibacterial agents that can treat sepsis are of paramount importance. The more lipophilic boron compound with the longer aliphatic chain also showed antifungal activity against Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract
Benzoxazole alkaloids exhibit a diverse array of structures and interesting biological activities. In spite of the extensive research done on the synthesis and biology, till date there is no concise update on this class of alkaloids. This chapter summarizes the literature on benzoxazole alkaloids till March 2017, which covers their isolation, characterization, possible biosynthetic origins, biological activities, and major synthetic approaches. These alkaloids have been broadly classified in the context of their sources, namely (i) fungal origin, (ii) marine origin, and (iii) plant origin.

Abstract
Ten lipophilic amines were prepared from the reductive amination of vanillin and the corresponding primary amines using sodium borohydride in methanol. All compounds have been obtained elementally pure and an X-ray diffraction study on the 4-n-butylaniline derivative has confirmed the molecular structure. Whilst the overall antibiotic activity of the derivatives was low, some of these compounds, particularly the boronate ester 2-methoxy-4-((2-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenylamino)methyl)phenol (7), showed a promising degree of antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra, where activity seemed to vary by the position of the boron substitution on the aniline ring.

Abstract
Seven new benzoxazole derivatives, nocarbenzoxazoles A-G (1-7), were isolated from the halophilic strain Nocardiopsis lucentensis DSM 44048. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data, HRESIMS, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The isolated compounds were assayed for their cytotoxicity against a panel of human tumor cell lines (HepG2, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-435, HeLa, and PC3). Compounds 1-6 were found to have modest or no activity. Compound 7 showed selective activity against HepG2 and HeLa with IC₅₀ values of 3 and 1 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Two novel boron compounds containing caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) derivatives have been prepared and characterized fully. These new compounds and CAPE have been investigated for potential antioxidant and antimicrobial properties and their ability to inhibit 5-lipoxygenase and whether chelation to boron improves their biological activity. Sodium salt 4 was generally more active than ammonium salt 5 in the biological assays and surpassed the radical scavenging ability of CAPE. Compounds 4 and 5 were more active than CAPE and Zileuton in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. These results clearly show the effectiveness of the synthesized salts as transporter of CAPE.

Abstract
Eight lipophilic 3-hydroxy-4-pyridinones have been prepared from a microwave-mediated reaction along with the corresponding copper(II) complexes. All complexes have been obtained elementally pure and X-ray diffraction studies on two of the copper complexes have confirmed the structure of these compounds. Some of these complexes showed a promising degree of anti-mycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, where activity seemed to vary by substitution at the pyridinone nitrogen atom.

Abstract
An endophytic fungus identified as Penicillium sp. was isolated from the brown alga Fucus spiralis collected from the Shetland Islands, United Kingdom. Bioassay-guided fractionation of an extract of the fungus led to the isolation of cladosporin, epiepoformin, phyllostine, and patulin, all of which showed antimicrobial activity against either Staphylococcus aureus or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Cladosporin has not previously been identified from a fungus of the genus Penicillium, and, despite being biosynthetically related, epiepoformin, phyllostine and patulin have not been previously reported from one source.

Abstract
Condensation of 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde with six primary amines containing aliphatic groups gave the corresponding pyridinecarboxaldimines (N-N′R). Addition of these ligands to [PtCl2(coe)]2 (coe = cis-cyclooctene) gave complexes of the type cis-PtCl2(N-N′R) (1: R = propyl, 2: R = hexyl, 3: R = octyl, 4: R = nonyl, 5: R = hexadecyl, and 6: R = octadecyl) in moderate yields. The molecular structure of the hexyl derivative (2) has been confirmed by an X-ray diffraction study. Crystals of 2 were triclinic with a = 8.6858(19) Å, b = 8.7567(19) Å, c = 9.5080(19) Å, α = 76.546(3)°, β = 87.151(3)°, and γ = 78.586(3)° in the space group P1. All platinum complexes show considerable anti-bacterial and anti-mycobacterial properties.

Abstract
Pseudopterosins and pseudopteroxazole are intriguing marine natural products that possess notable antimicrobial activity with a commensurate lack of cytotoxicity. New semi-synthetic pseudopteroxazoles, pseudopteroquinoxalines and pseudopterosin congeners along with simple synthetic mimics of the terpene skeleton were synthesized. In order to build structure-activity relationships, a set of 29 new and previously reported compounds was assessed for invitro antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities. A number of congeners exhibited antimicrobial activity against a range of Gram-positive bacteria including Mycobacteriumtuberculosis H37Rv, with four displaying notable antitubercular activity against both replicating and non-replicating persistent forms of M.tuberculosis. One new semi-synthetic compound, 21-((1H-imidazol-5-yl)methyl)-pseudopteroxazole (7a), was more potent than the natural products pseudopterosin and pseudopteroxazole and exhibited equipotent activity against both replicating and non-replicating persistent forms of M.tuberculosis with a near absence of invitro cytotoxicity. Pseudopteroxazole also exhibited activity against strains of M.tuberculosis H37Rv resistant to six clinically used antibiotics.
