An approach for the synthesis of quinolizinone with potential bioactivity has been developed via palladium-catalytic dearomative cyclocarbonylation of allylalcohol. Diverse quinolizinone compounds could be attained with good efficiencies. A feasible reaction pathway could be a successive procedure of allylation, dearomatization, CO insertion and the Heck reaction.
Macrolide compounds per se, as shown below and defined herein, and their use, e.g., as antibacterial and antiprotozoal agents in animals, including humans:
Also disclosed are methods of preparing the compounds, intermediates, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and methods of treating or preventing disease by administering the compounds to subjects in need. This abstract is only an excerpt and is not limiting of the invention.
