The first total synthesis of (−)-dendroside C aglycon, consisting of a 1,4,5-tri-cis-guaiane skeleton, from a versatile hydroazulene intermediate has been accomplished. The key features of the syntheses include the stereoselective preparation of the unusual cis-hydroazulene core via a sequence of a unique Dieckmann condensation of the bicyclic lactone system, which was concisely prepared by the tandem

Using rational design, an engineered myoglobin‐based catalyst capable of catalyzing the cyclopropanation of aryl‐substituted olefins with catalytic proficiency (up to 46 800 turnovers) and excellent diastereo‐ and enantioselectivity (98–99.9 %) was developed. This transformation could be carried out in the presence of up to 20 g L−1 olefin substrate with no loss in diastereo‐ and/or enantioselectivity
通过合理的设计,开发了一种工程化的基于肌红蛋白的催化剂,该催化剂能够催化芳基取代的烯烃的环丙烷化,具有催化能力(高达46 800次营业额)和出色的非对映和对映选择性(98–99.9%)。该转化可在不超过20 g L -1烯烃底物的存在下进行,且非对映选择性和/或对映选择性不损失。诱变和机理研究支持由亲电的血红素结合的卡宾物质介导的环丙烷化机理,并提供了一个模型来合理化蛋白质催化剂的立体偏好。这项工作表明,肌红蛋白是开发具有卡宾转移反应性的生物催化剂的有前途和强大的支架。

The synthesis of a series of α-aryl or α-alkyl functionalised β-hydroxy and β-keto esters has been achieved by reacting α-diazoesters with boranes, and aldehydes, ketones, anhydrides, nitriles, esters or isocyanates. In a mild reaction protocol, 26 examples are presented in yields up to 73%.

Tuberculosis constitutes today a serious threat to human health worldwide, aggravated by the increasing number of identified multi-drug resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), its causative agent, as well as by the lack of development of novel mycobactericidal compounds for the last few decades. A novel series of benzofuran-3-carbohydrazide and its analogs was synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. All the compounds were characterized and screened for in vitro anti-tuberculosis (anti-TB) activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strains by using resazurin assay utilizing microtiter-plate method (REMA). These compounds also showed good antifungal activity against Candida albicans. Thus, the high level of activity shown by the compounds (8a, 8k) suggests that these compounds could serve as leads for development of novel synthetic compounds with enhanced anti- TB and antifungal activity.
