Gleiter, Rolf published the artcileRegiochemistry of the intramolecular [2+2] photocycloaddition of enones to vinyl ethers as a function of chain length, Formula: C7H13BrSi, the publication is Chemische Berichte (1992), 125(8), 1899-911, database is CAplus.

The intramol. [2+2] cycloaddition of a cyclohexenone moiety bound to a vinyl ether fragment has been explored. The regiochem. and the quantum yield of the reaction have been investigated as a function of the chain length n and the position of the methoxy group. In those cases where the chain consists of 3 and 4 members the position of the methoxy group has no influence on the regiochem. but on the quantum yield. Only head-to-head cycloaddition is observed In the case of n = 2 both the regiochem. and the quantum yield depend strongly on the position of the methoxy group. The main reason for the different behavior of n = 2 is due to a through-bond effect between the two olefinic units mediated by a C₂H₄ bridge.

Sorci, Mirco published the artcileVirucidal N95 Respirator Face Masks via Ultrathin Surface-Grafted Quaternary Ammonium Polymer Coatings, HPLC of Formula: 143-15-7, the publication is ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces (2022), 14(22), 25135-25146, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

N95 respirator face masks serve as effective phys. barriers against airborne virus transmission, especially in a hospital setting. However, conventional filtration media materials, such as nonwoven polypropylene fibers, have no inherent virucidal activity, and thus, the risk of surface contamination increases with wear time. The ability of face masks to protect against infection can be likely improved by incorporating components that deactivate viruses on contact. We present a facile method for covalently attaching antiviral quaternary ammonium polymers to the fiber surfaces of nonwoven polypropylene fabrics that are commonly used as active filtration materials in N95 respirators via UV-initiated grafting of biocidal agents. Here, C₁₂-quaternized benzophenone is simultaneously polymerized and grafted onto melt-blown or spunbond polypropylene fabric using 254 nm UV light. This grafting method generated ultrathin polymer coatings which imparted a permanent cationic charge without grossly changing the fiber morphol. or air resistance across the filter. For melt-blown polypropylene, which comprises the filtration layer of N95 respirator masks, filtration efficiency was neg. impacted from 72.5 to 51.3% for uncoated and coated single-ply samples, resp. Similarly, directly applying the antiviral polymer to full N95 masks decreased the filtration efficiency from 90.4 to 79.8%. This effect was due to the exposure of melt-blown polypropylene to organic solvents used in the coating process. However, N95-level filtration efficiency could be achieved by wearing coated spunbond polypropylene over an N95 mask or by fabricating N95 masks with coated spunbond as the exterior layer. Coated materials demonstrated broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against several lipid-enveloped viruses and Escherichia coli bacteria. For example, a 4.3-log reduction in infectious MHV-A59 virus and a 3.3-log reduction in infectious SuHV-1 virus after contact with coated filters were observed, although the level of viral deactivation varied significantly depending on the virus strain and protocol for assaying infectivity.

Riente, Paola published the artcileShedding light on the nature of the catalytically active species in photocatalytic reactions using Bi₂O₃ semiconductor, COA of Formula: C4H6BrFO2, the publication is Nature Communications (2021), 12(1), 625, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The importance of discovering the true catalytically active species involved in photocatalytic systems allows for a better and more general understanding of photocatalytic processes, which eventually may help to improve their efficiency. Bi₂O₃ has been used as a heterogeneous photocatalyst and is able to catalyze several synthetically important visible-light-driven organic transformations. However, insight into the operative catalyst involved in the photocatalytic process is hitherto missing. Herein, we show through a combination of theor. and exptl. studies that the perceived heterogeneous photocatalysis with Bi₂O₃ in the presence of alkyl bromides involves a homogeneous BinBrm species, which is the true photocatalyst operative in the reaction. Hence, Bi₂O₃ can be regarded as a precatalyst which is slowly converted in an active homogeneous photocatalyst. This work can also be of importance to mechanistic studies involving other semiconductor-based photocatalytic processes.

Several new mono- and difluoromethylation reactions of cinnamic acids using an Eosin Y catalytic system are reported. An efficient alkene fluoromethylation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids, e.g., I, II, and III, was accomplished under ambient temperature and metal-free conditions, with a wide range of functional group tolerance. A mechanism that involves a radical process is proposed for this reaction.

Zhong, Yongliang published the artcileFunctionalized Polyesters via Stereoselective Electrochemical Ring-Opening Polymerization of O-Carboxyanhydrides, Recommanded Product: Cobalt(II) dibromo(1,2-dimethoxyethane), the publication is ACS Macro Letters (2020), 9(8), 1114-1118, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Ring-opening polymerization is used to prepare polyesters with precisely controlled mol. weights, mol. weight distributions, and tacticities. Herein, we report a Co/Zn catalytic system that can be activated by an elec. current to mediate efficient ring-opening polymerization of enantiopure O-carboxyanhydrides, allowing for the synthesis of isotactic functionalized polyesters with high mol. weights (>140 kDa) and narrow mol. weight distributions (M_w/M_n < 1.1). We also demonstrate that these catalysts can be used for stereoselective ring-opening polymerization of racemic O-carboxyanhydrides to synthesize syndiotactic or stereoblock copolymers with different glass transition temperatures compared with their atactic counterparts.

Touaibia, Mohamed published the artcileStructure-Activity Relationship Studies of New Sinapic Acid Phenethyl Ester Analogues Targeting the Biosynthesis of 5-Lipoxygenase Products: The Role of Phenolic Moiety, Ester Function, and Bioisosterism, HPLC of Formula: 1997-80-4, the publication is Journal of Natural Products (2022), 85(1), 225-236, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Sinapic acid is found in many edible plants and fruits, such as rapeseed, where it is the predominant phenolic compound New sinapic acid phenethyl ester (SAPE) analogs were synthesized and screened as inhibitors of the biosynthesis of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) in stimulated HEK293 cells and polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL). Inhibition of leukotriene biosynthesis catalyzed by 5-LO is a validated therapeutic strategy against certain inflammatory diseases and allergies. Unfortunately, the only inhibitor approved to date has limited clin. use because of its poor pharmacokinetic profile and liver toxicity. With the new analogs synthesized in this study, the role of the phenolic moiety, ester function, and bioisosterism was investigated. Several of the 34 compounds inhibited the biosynthesis of 5-LO products, and 20 compounds were 2-11 times more potent than zileuton in PMNL, which are important producers of 5-LO products. Compounds 5i (I)(IC₅₀: 0.20 μM), 5l (II) (IC₅₀: 0.20 μM), and 5o (III)(IC₅₀: 0.21 μM) bearing 4-trifluoromethyl, Me, or methoxy substituent at meta-position of the phenethyl moiety were 1.5 and 11.5 times more potent than SAPE (IC₅₀: 0.30 μM) and zileuton (IC₅₀: 2.31 μM), resp. Addnl., compound 9 (IC₅₀: 0.27 μM), which was obtained after acetylation of the 4-hydroxyl of SAPE, was equivalent to SAPE and 8 times more active than zileuton. Furthermore, compound 20b (IV) (IC₅₀: 0.27 μM) obtained after the bioisosteric replacement of the ester function of SAPE by the 1,2,4-oxadiazole heterocycle was equivalent to SAPE and 8 times more active than zileuton. Thus, this study provides a basis for the rational design of new mols. that could be developed further as anti 5-LO therapeutics.

Rene, Olivier published the artcileDiscovery of oxa-sultams as RORc inverse agonists showing reduced lipophilicity, improved selectivity and favorable ADME properties, Computed Properties of 76283-09-5, the publication is Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters (2016), 26(18), 4455-4461, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Modification of the δ-sultam ring of RORc inverse agonist 2 led to the discovery of more polar oxa-sultam 65. The less lipophilic inverse agonist (65) displayed high potency in a biochem. assay, which translated into inhibition of IL-17 production in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The successful reduction of lipophilicity of this new analog gave rise to addnl. improvements in ROR selectivity and aqueous kinetic solubility, as well as reduction in plasma protein binding, while maintaining high cellular permeability.

Guo, Pu published the artcileCompound shape effects in minor groove binding affinity and specificity for mixed sequence DNA, HPLC of Formula: 53484-26-7, the publication is Journal of the American Chemical Society (2018), 140(44), 14761-14769, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

AT-specific heterocyclic cations that bind in the DNA duplex minor groove have had major successes as cell and nuclear stains and as therapeutic agents which can effectively enter human cells. Expanding the DNA sequence recognition capability of the minor groove compounds could also expand their therapeutic targets and have an impact in many areas, such as modulation of transcription factor biol. activity. 2268681509. Success in the design of mixed sequence binding compounds has been achieved with N-methylbenzimidazole (N-MeBI) thiophenes which are preorganized to fit the shape of the DNA minor groove and H-bond to the -NH of G·C base pairs that projects into the minor groove. Initial compounds bound strongly to a single G·C base pair in an AT context with a specificity ratio of 50 (K_d AT-GC/K_d AT) or less and this was somewhat low for biol. use. We felt that modifications of compound shape could be used to probe local DNA microstructure in target mixed base-pair sequences of DNA and potentially improve the compound binding selectivity. Modifications were made by increasing the size of the benzimidazole N-substituent, e.g., by using N-iso-Bu instead of N-Me, and by changing the mol. twist by introducing substitutions at specific positions on the aromatic core of the compounds In both cases, we were able to achieve a dramatic increase in binding specificity, including no detectable binding to pure AT sequences, without a significant loss in affinity to mixed base-pair target sequences.
