2-Methylerythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate synthase (IspF) is an essential enzyme for the biosynthesis of isoprenoid precursors in plants and many human pathogens. The protein is an attractive target for the development of anti-infectives and herbicides. Using a photometric assay, a screen of 40,000 compounds on IspF from Arabidopsis thaliana afforded sym. aryl bis-sulfonamides that inhibit IspF from A. thaliana (AtIspF) and Plasmodium falciparum (PfIspF) with IC50 values in the micromolar range. The ortho-bis-sulfonamide structural motif is essential for inhibitory activity. The best derivatives obtained by parallel synthesis showed IC50 values of 1.4 μM against PfIspF and 240 nM against AtIspF. Substantial herbicidal activity was observed at a dose of 2 kg ha-1. Mol. modeling studies served as the basis for an in silico search targeted at the discovery of novel, non-sym. sulfonamide IspF inhibitors. The designed compounds were found to exhibit inhibitory activities in the double-digit micromolar IC50 range.

Reported herein is an unprecedented copper-catalyzed site-selective δ-C(sp3)-H bonds activation of aliphatic sulfonamides for constructing the synthetically useful seven-membered N-heterocycles.

Synthesis of 2-bromo- and 2-phenyl-neo-confused porphyrins was written by Almejbel, Arwa S.;Lash, Timothy D.. And the article was included in Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry in 2020.Application of 881676-32-0 This article mentions the following:

Neo-confused porphyrins (neo-CPs), porphyrin isomers with a 1,3-connected pyrrolic subunit, are aromatic structures with a CNNN coordination core. Previously, examples of neo-CPs with fused benzo units or electron-withdrawing ester substituents have been described. In this paper, two new examples of neo-CPs are reported that lack a fused aromatic unit or an ester moiety, but instead have a bromo or Ph substituent on the neo-confused ring. Acid-catalyzed condensation of suitably substituted 1,2′-dipyrrylmethane dialdehydes with a 2,2′-dipyrrylmethane, followed by oxidation with aqueous ferric chloride solutions, afforded the neo-CPs in 40-45% yield. These porphyrin analogs had slightly reduced diatropic ring currents and slowly decomposed in solution The related palladium(II) and nickel(II) complexes proved to be very unstable, even though the diatropicity of the macrocycle was enhanced. This study shows that stabilizing substituents are necessary for investigations into this class of porphyrinoids. Attempts to prepare imidazole versions of neo-CPs were unsuccessful.

6-Hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin pyrophosphokinase (HPPK), an enzyme from the folate biosynthesis pathway, catalyzes the pyrophosphoryl transfer from ATP to 6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin and is a yet-to-be-drugged antimicrobial target. Building on our previous discovery that 8-mercaptoguanine (8MG) is an inhibitor of Staphylococcus aureus HPPK (SaHPPK), we have identified and characterized the binding of an S8-functionalized derivative (3). X-ray structures of both the SaHPPK/3/cofactor analog ternary and the SaHPPK/cofactor analog binary complexes have provided insight into cofactor recognition and key residues that move over 30 Å upon binding of 3, whereas NMR measurements reveal a partially plastic ternary complex active site. Synthesis and binding anal. of a set of analogs of 3 have identified an advanced new lead compound (11) displaying >20-fold higher affinity for SaHPPK than 8MG. A number of these exhibited low micromolar affinity for dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS), the adjacent, downstream enzyme to HPPK, and may thus represent promising new leads to bienzyme inhibitors.

Bromination of a 2:5 molar mixture of C6H6 and PhNO2 4 hrs. on a steam bath with 0.3 mole Br per 0.36 mole C6H6 occurred rapidly and in 90 min. gave 33.1% PhBr without any Br2C6H4; a kinetic curve of the reaction was shown. In CCl4 the reaction failed to take place after 4 hrs. When the solvent was omitted, the reaction was very slow for 1.5 hrs., then proceeded at an appreciable rate and gave 10.3% PhBr in 4 hrs. The reaction in PhBr was less rapid than in PhNO2 but more rapid than without a solvent and gave 15.3% PhBr in 4 hrs. The solvating or complexing action of PhNO2 on C6H6 accounted for the activation of the reaction described above.
