The reactivity of methyltrioxorhenium in the epoxidation of olefins can be tuned by the presence of Lewis bases as ligands of the metal center. Unfortunately, a large excess of ligand is usually required to obtain high yields and selectivities mainly because of the fluxionalbehaviour that these compounds show in solution. We describe here the microencapsulation technique that can resolve this problem

The system chlorine dioxide–dimethylformamide in combination with or without a catalytic amount of MoCl5, CeCl3, ZrOCl2, or VO(acac)2 induces oxidative chlorination of a number of bicyclic terpene alcohols and vicinal diols. 2α-Chloropinan-3-one, 3α-chloro-10β-pinan-4-one, 5α-chloro-3α-hydroxycaran-4-one, 5β-chloro-3β-hydroxycaran-4-one, and 4α-chloro-2α-hydroxypinan-3-one were thus synthesized in

Unsymmetrically substituted α-boronate radicals displayed selective line broadening in their low-temperature spectra from which barriers to internal rotation about •CH2−B(OR‘)OR bonds were found to be 3 ± 1 kcal mol-1. Use of an empirical relationship between barrier height

Vicinal terpenoid diols of carane- and pinane-type structures have been oxidized with chlorine dioxide in pyridine to form the corresponding ketols in the preparative yield of 52-72%, the selectivity of alpha-hydroxyketones formation being 80-90%. It has been shown that the diols reactivity towards oxidation with ClO2 depends mainly on the stereochemistry of hydroxy groups. The catalysts, VO(acac)(2), Mo(CO6), and MoCl5 have practically no effect on the oxidation process. When the reaction has been performed in dimethylformamide, the hydroxyketone chlorination occurred at high conversion.

beta-Lactamases comprise the most widely used mode of resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics. Cyclic boronates have shown promise as a new class of beta-lactamase inhibitor, with pioneering potential to potently inhibit both metallo- and serine-beta-lactamases. We report studies concerning a bicyclic boronate ester with a thioether rather than the more typical beta-lactam antibiotic "C-6/C-7" acylamino type side chain, which is present in the penicillin/cephalosporin antibiotics. The thioether bicyclic boronate ester was tested for activity against representative serine- and metallo-beta-lactamases. The results support the broad inhibition potential of bicyclic boronate based inhibitors with different side chains, including against metallo-beta-lactamases from B1, B2, and B3 subclasses. Combined with previous crystallographic studies, analysis of a crystal structure of the thioether inhibitor with the clinically relevant VIM-2 metallo-beta-lactamase implies that further SAR work will expand the already broad scope of beta-lactamase inhibition by bicyclic boronates.
