organometallic reagents has attracted the attention of organic chemists for a long time. However limited methods are reliable for common amides and have found synthetic applications. Here we report a method featuring in situ activation of tertiary amides with triflic anhydride (Tf2O) followed by addition of Grignardreagents. The method displays a good generality in scope for both amides and Grignard reagents

The present invention relates to the use of compounds as broad spectrum inhibitors of bacterial biofilm formation. In particular the invention refers to a family of compounds that block the quorum sensing system of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, a process for their manufacture, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and to their use for the treatment and prevention of bacterial damages and diseases, in particular for diseases where there is an advantage in inhibiting quorum sensing regulated phenotypes of pathogens.
