Antiviral activity of some .beta.-diketones. 1. Aryl alkyl diketones. In vitro activity against both RNA and DNA viruses
摘要:
The discovery that 4-[3-ethyl-6-[(3,4-methylenedioxy)phenyl]-3-hexenyl]-3,5-heptanedione (40) exhibited an in vitro inhibitory effect against equine rhinovirus led to a structure--activity study to establish the criteria for optimum activity. Modification of the bridge included removal of the ethyl group and reduction of the double bond. The heptanedione was replaced with hexanedione and pentanedione with a minimal effect. The effect of replacing the heptanedione with beta-keto esters and monoketones was also investigated. Maintaining the hexamethylene bridge and heptanedione, the methylenedioxy group was replaced with various substitutents. In general, most substituents did not adversely affect activity particularly against equine rhinovirus although there was some variation in activity against herpesvirus. Strongly hydrophilic groups significantly reduced activity. Finally, the effect of varying the length of the alkyl bridge was examined in the 4-hydroxyphenyl series, where peak activity was attained with n = 8.

metathesis (CAM) reaction is a versatile, stereoselective, and atom-economical method to access a diverse range of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, which are useful synthetic precursors and constitute an important structural motif in biologically active substances. In this work, we developed an efficient organic Lewis acid catalytic system to promote both the intramolecular and intermolecular CAM reactions

A non-noble Cu-catalyzed transfer aza-benzyl Michael addition via the C–Cbondcleavage of aza-benzyl alcohols has been disclosed. The unstrained C(sp3)–C(sp3) bond of an alcohol was selectively cleaved. This aza-benzyl transfer strategy provides a selective and environmentally benign approach for the C-alkylation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds that employs readily available alcohols as carbon

Herein, we present an efficient and practical kinetic resolution (KR) of racemic allylic pyrazoles utilizing photoexcited chiral-copper-complex-mediated alkene E → Z isomerization. This method enables the synthesis of both enantioenriched E- and Z-allylic pyrazoles, achieving enantiomeric excesses (e.e.) of up to 97% and selectivity factors (S factors) as high as 217. Remarkably, the method’s ability
