Synthesis of amino juglone derivatives with adjuvant activity against clinical isolated methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus strains. Bioorg Chem 2024; 150:107627. [PMID: 38996547 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107627] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 07/08/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024]
Abstract
1,4-naphthoquinones hydroxyderivatives belong to an important class of natural products and have been known as a favored scaffold in medicinal chemistry due to their multiple biological properties. Juglone is one of the most important 1,4-naphthoquinone extracted from juglandaceae family showing a good antibacterial activity. In this study, we report the synthesis of aminojuglone derivatives through Michael addition reaction using Cerium (III) chloride heptahydrate (CeCl3·7H2O) as catalyst. The synthesized aminojuglone derivatives were evaluated for their antibacterial properties against sensitive, clinical resistant Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Compound 3c showed a good antibacterial activity similar to cloxacillin (2 µg/mL) against the clinically resistant S.aureus. The antibiotic adjuvant activity of compounds was evaluated in combination with three clinically use antibiotics. The combination of compounds 3a, 3b, 3e, 3 h-3 l, 3n and 3o with cloxacillin showed remarkable adjuvant activity against clinically resistant S. aureus (66-fold potentiation of cloxacillin activity). 3e is the only compound consistent with the concept of antibiotic adjuvant, presenting insufficient antibacterial activity (MIC > 128 µg/mL) and potentiate the activity of cloxacillin (66-fold) with synergistic effect. A structural characterization of 3e was carried out for the first time using X-ray diffraction technic. Moreover, compound 3e did not show a cytotoxic activity on sheep red blood cells.

Abstract
The one-pot de novo synthesis of pentasubstituted pyridines was realized following the process of Au(I)-autotandem catalysis and subsequent aromatization. The process involves aza-enyne metathesis with aryl propiolates to yield 1-azabutadienes and their addition/6π-electrocyclization sequence with the other propiolate units. The resultant 1,4-dihydropyridines were aromatized to furnish the pyridines in the presence of atmospheric oxygen. The aryl propiolates were regioselectively incorporated into the ring system to afford 2-arylpyridines as the sole product.

Abstract
Oximes and related derivatives featuring a CN double bond are important in many areas of chemistry. Different methods for the determination of the E/Z configuration have been developed, each with its own scope and limitations. While some cannot be used when only one isomer is available, others require special NMR experiments. Here, three popular computational methodologies (DP4, DP4+, and ML-J-DP4) have been thoroughly studied using a challenging test set. Although DP4+ provides the best confidence, its computational cost might be high. On the other hand, ML-J-DP4 shows excellent performance in most cases in a fraction of CPU time. A detailed analysis of the structural factors affecting the NMR prediction and sense of the assignment is also provided.

Abstract
Methoximes are important as a class of intermediates and products, among fine chemicals and specialties. The development of a new, facile and efficient method for their synthesis is reported. The methoximes were properly accessed from the corresponding aromatic aldehydes and ketones in good to excellent yields, under mild conditions, employing the inexpensive and environmentally friendly MnCl2.4H2O as a catalyst (at low loading and without the addition of ligand), in EtOH at 50°C. The scope of the process was systematically assessed.

Abstract
Among many, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) has received significant consideration. The striking price and accessibility of l-lactic acid, as a naturally occurring organic acid, are important reasons for poly-(l)-lactic acid (PLLA) improvement. PLLA is a compostable and biocompatible/bioresorbable polymer used for disposable products, for biomedical applications, for packaging film, in the automotive industry, for electronic device components, and for many other applications. Formerly, titanium and other metals have been used in different orthopaedic screws and plates, but they are not degradable and therefore remain in the body. So, the development of innovative and eco compatible catalysts for polyester synthesis is of great interest. In this study, an innovative and eco sustainable catalyst was employed for PLLA synthesis. The combined CeCl3·7H2O-NaI system has been demonstrated to be a very valuable and nontoxic catalyst toward PLLA synthesis, and it represents a further example of how to exploit the antibacterial properties of cerium ions in biomaterials engineering. A novel synthesis of poly-(l)-lactic acid was developed in high yields up to 95% conversion and with a truly valuable molecular weight ranging from 9000 to 145 000 g mol-1, testing different synthetic routes.

Abstract
The antifungal activity of a library of twenty-four aromatic methoximes was examined against five representative postharvest phytopathogenic fungi. The panel included Penicillium digitatum, Penicillium italicum, Rhizopus stolonifer, Botrytis cinerea and Monilinia fructicola, all of which cause relevant economic losses worldwide as a result of affecting harvested fruits. The minimum inhibitory concentrations and minimum fungicidal concentrations of each compound were defined and the main structure-activity relationships were determined. Although other congeners were more potent, drug likeliness considerations pointed to the methoxime derived from 2,4-dihydroxypropiophenone as the compound with the most suitable profile. The morphology of the colonies of the fungal strains treated with the methoxime was examined microscopically and the compound was also tested in freshly harvested peaches and oranges, exhibiting promising control profiles in both fruits, similar to those of the commercial agents Imazalil and Carbendazim.

Abstract
This report presents the oxygenation of C-H bonds via the merger of photocatalysis and Pd catalysis. Herein, we describe the utilization of a photocatalyst to oxidize an organopalladium(II) intermediate to high-valent PdIII or PdIV intermediates, which promotes the formation of C-O bonds. The demonstrated method works efficiently with various directing groups, such as oxime ether and benzothiazole. The applicability of this direct C-O bond formation method is shown by synthesizing several metal complexes of 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)phenol that can be used in organic light-emitting diodes and pharmaceuticals.
