The thuggacins have attracted much attention due to their strong antibacterial activity, particularly towards Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This study focuses on 1) thuggacin derivatives that cannot equilibrate by transacylation between the three natural thuggacins A-C, 2) the roles of the thiazole ring, and 3) the hexyl side chain at C2. Semi-synthetic O-methylation at C17 suppressed the transacylations without a substantial loss of antibacterial activity. Exchanging the C17-C25 side chain for simplified hydrophobic chains led to complete loss of antibacterial activity.

Appropriate functionalization in the 5-position of each of two pyrrole moieties with styryl functionality in a BODIPY core helped us in achieving the extended conjugation and a facile intramolecular charge transfer transition with a narrow energy gap for frontier orbitals. This accounted for a poor emission quantum yield for the probe molecule L. Binding to. Hg2+ helped in interrupting the facile intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) process that was initially operational for L. This resulted in a hypsochromic shift of absorption band and a turn-on luminescence response with lambda(Em)(max) of 650 nm on specific binding to Hg2+. Observed spectral changes are rationalized based on quantum chemical calculations. Interestingly, this reagent is found to be localized preferentially in the mitochondria of the live human colon cancer (Hct116) cells. Mitochondria is one of the major targets for localization of He2+, which actually decreases the mitochondrial membrane potential and modifies various proteins having sulfudryl functionality(ies) to cause cell apoptosis. Considering these, ability of the present reagent to specifically recognize Hg2+] in the mitochondrial region of the live Hct116 cells has significance.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">22</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.82</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mahajan, Pankaj S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humne, Vivek T.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mhaske, Santosh B.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Achmatowicz reaction: A versatile tool in bioactive natural products synthesis</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Current Organic Chemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Achmatowicz reaction</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">carbohydrates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Furanols</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Natural products</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">pyranones</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Total synthesis</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APR</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">21</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">503-545</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Achmatowicz reaction has emerged as an efficient tool in organic synthesis since its discovery in 1971 by Achmatowicz Jr. The original protocol went through several advantageous variations.

The pyranone product of the Achmatowicz reaction is a versatile building block for the synthesis of bioactive scaffolds, drugs and natural products. The present review covers the application of the Achmatowicz reaction in the synthesis of natural products and bioactive molecules reported from 1971 to date. It has been divided into seven sections on the basis of the core structures of the natural products synthesized utilizing the Achmatowicz reaction.

Compounds 12h, 12j and 12k showed promising antifungal activity against all the tested fungal pathogens except C. neoformans ATCC 34554 compared to fluconazole. Compound 12j in which the β-lactam ring was formed using para-anisidine and benzaldehyde was found to be more potent than fluconazole against all the fungal strains with an IC50 value of &amp;lt;0.015 μg mL−1 for Candida albicans (ATCC 24433). Mechanistic studies for active compounds revealed that the antifungal action was due to ergosterol inhibition. Compounds 12h and 12j at a concentration of 0.125 μg mL−1 caused 91.5 and 96.8% ergosterol depletion, respectively, compared to fluconazole which at the same concentration caused 49% ergosterol depletion. The molecular docking study revealed that all the fluconazole β-lactam conjugates 12(a–l) could snugly fit into the active site of lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) with varying degrees of affinities. As anticipated, the binding energy for compound 12j (−58.961 kcal mol−1) was much smaller than that for fluconazole (−52.92 kcal mol−1).

Herein we demonstrate a proof of concept for a light activatable prodrug with desired organelle specificity. Mertansine, a benzoansamacrolide, is an efficient microtubule-targeting compound that binds at or near the vinblastine-binding site in the mitochondrial region to induce mitotic arrest and cell death through apoptosis. Despite its efficacy even in the nanomolar level, this has failed in stage 2 of human clinical trials owing to the lack of drug specificity and the deleterious systemic toxicity. To get around this problem, a recent trend is to develop an antibody-conjugatable maytansinoid with improved tumor/organelle-specificity and lesser systematic toxicity. Endogenous CO is recognized as a regulator of cellular function and for its obligatory role in cell apoptosis. CO blocks the proliferation of cancer cells and effector T cells, and the primary target is reported to be the mitochondria. We report herein a new mitochondria-specific prodrug conjugate (Pro-DC) that undergoes a photocleavage reaction on irradiation with a 400 nm source (1.0 mW cm(-2)) to induce a simultaneous release of the therapeutic components mertansine and CO along with a BODIPY derivative (BODIPY(PPH3)(2)) as a luminescent marker in the mitochondrial matrix. The efficacy of the process is demonstrated using MCF-7 cells and could effectively be visualized by probing the intracellular luminescence of BODIPY(PPH3)(2). This provides a proof-of-concept for designing a prodrug for image-guided combination therapy for mainstream treatment of cancer.&lt;/p&gt;

	A one-pot cascade approach for the synthesis of N substituted indoles from amino alcohols and alcohols under additive and base-free conditions with the liberation of water as the only stoichiometric byproduct is reported. The commercially available bench-stable Ni(OTf)2 salt in combination with 1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane (dcype) is very effective for this unprecedented catalytic transformation. A broad range of substrates including aromatic and aliphatic primary alcohols, cyclic and acyclic secondary alcohols, and various substituted 2-aminophenyl ethyl alcohols are employed in the reaction conditions to provide a diverse range of N-alkylated indoles. Mechanistic studies revealed that the reaction proceeds through tandem N-alkylation via hydrogen autotransfer followed by the cyclization of N-alkylated alcohol intermediate.&lt;/p&gt;

	The direct visible light-mediated intramolecular decarboxylative C-H functionalization of Csp(2)-H bond adjacent to the nitrogen of a heteroarene has been achieved by iridium-catalyzed photodecarboxylative radical cyclization. This method offers rapid entry to the synthesis of quinazolinone scaffolds from easily accessible starting materials. The newly developed protocol is mild, operationally simple, oxidant free and general. The utility of this unique Csp(3)-Csp(2) bond forming reaction has been demonstrated in the syntheses of Circumdatin, Sclerotigenine and Benzomalvin A class of quinazolinone natural products and their congeners. The present work represents an interesting example of use of memory of chirality in decarboxylative C-C bond forming enantioselective photoredox reaction.&lt;/p&gt;

	Traditionally, toxic and expensive hydrazine building blocks are required to construct pharmaceutically important pyrazolidine-3,5-diones. Herein, we have described a novel method for their synthesis based on metal-free oxidative dehydrogenative N-N bond formation by PIDA-mediated reaction of easily accessible dianilide precursors. The developed mild reaction protocol features a good functional group tolerance and scalability. The application of this method is demonstrated by offering a unique route for the synthesis of uricosuric agents G-25671 and sulfinpyrazone from inexpensive starting material aniline via smooth functionalization of the well-designed diversity-oriented cyclopropyl key intermediate.&lt;/p&gt;

	Quinolones and isoquinolones are privileged scaffolds in synthetic/medicinal chemistry and drug discovery due to their unique chemical structures and intrinsic properties. Herein, we reveal a transition-metal-free approach for their synthesis from the reaction of dimethyl-2-((phenylamino)methylene)malonate with aryne precursors under mild conditions. The substrate scope is broad, accommodating a wide range of functional groups. The synthetic utility of the developed protocol has been demonstrated in the total synthesis of the potent antagonist agent AS2717638 and key intermediates of floxacin congeners.

	alpha-Methylproline is a key starting material (KSM) for important drugs, such as Daridorexant, Veliparib, Trofinetide, Enlicitide chloride, and Usnoflast. A practical and scalable asymmetric synthesis of (S)-2-methylproline and its derivatives has been disclosed here using a diketopiperazine intermediate-based strategy that leverages the memory of chirality. Commencing from an inexpensive starting material, l-proline, it proceeds through dimerization and alkylation, followed by hydrolysis under mild conditions, avoiding column chromatography to furnish enantiomerically pure (S)-2-methylproline.HCl, which was also converted to (S)-Boc-2-methylproline and (S)-2-methylproline methyl ester.HCl. In contrast to prior multistep approaches, which rely on expensive chiral auxiliaries and hazardous reagents, this concise three-step route offers operational simplicity, scalability, and superior stereochemical control, making it an attractive method for the synthesis of proline-derived building blocks for peptidomimetics and pharmaceutical applications.&lt;/p&gt;

	We report herein a novel NHC-catalyzed transition-metal-free chemoselective allylation of aldehydes with Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) carbonates using an inorganic base. Fascinatingly, the use of an organic base follows a different mechanism, leading to highly functionalized 1,5-dienes via a Michael addition-elimination reaction followed by [3,3]-sigmatropic Cope rearrangement. The described method harnesses a new Csp2-Csp3 bond to access alpha-methylene-gamma-oxo-gamma-substituted ester derivatives paving a way to facile synthesis of potent natural products and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). A broad range of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes with MBH carbonates was employed to provide a variety of interesting butanoate and dienyl ketone scaffolds in good to excellent yields. This chemistry has been extended to the efficient syntheses of rac-sacubitril API and gamma-butyrolactone scaffold, which is a privileged core present in many natural products and APIs&lt;/p&gt;

	This study describes a novel and general protocol featuring organophotoredox-catalyzed intramolecular decarboxylative construction of carbon-heteroatom (oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur) bonds, enabling direct access to ampakine APIs (CX-614 and CX-554), quinazolinone alkaloids (deoxyvasicinone and mackinazolinone), and thiazinone scaffolds as well as their congeners with broad functional group tolerance and scalability. Mechanistic studies suggest a radical-polar crossover pathway via single-electron oxidation.&lt;/p&gt;
