RESUMEN
Mutacin 1140 (MU1140) is a naturally occurring lantibiotic derived from posttranslational modifications of a ribosomally synthesized peptide during the fermentation of a bacterium called Streptococcus mutans, the etiological agent of dental cavities. A practical approach for chemically synthesizing lantibiotics would be a valuable tool to expand the MU1140 library with additional semisynthetic analogs. In turn, an expanded library may prove useful to explore additional therapeutic indications for this pipeline of novel compounds. In this work, orthogonally protected lanthionine analogs were synthesized via an aziridine ring opening strategy. This lanthionine was utilized to synthesize a cysteamine (Cya) instead of the (S)-aminovinyl-D-cysteine (AviCys) that is naturally found in MU1140. The Cya containing bicyclic C/D ring of MU1140 was synthesized by Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The linear peptides were synthesized using OPfp ester derivatives and using various common coupling reagents such as COMU and TCTU. The linear peptide was intracyclized with DEPBT to construct the so-called bicyclic ring C/D. This is the first report on the complete chemical synthesis of the bicyclic C/D ring of a MU1140 analog using orthogonally protected lanthionines using SPPS.

Compartmentalized molecular level design of new energetic materials based on energetic azolate anions allows for the examination of the effects of both cation and anion on the physiochemical properties of ionic liquids. Thirty one novel salts were synthesized by pairing diverse cations (tetraphenylphosphonium, ethyltriphenylphosphonium, N-phenyl pyridinium, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium, tetramethyl-, tetraethyl-, and tetrabutylammonium) with azolate anions (5-nitrobenzimidazolate, 5-nitrobenzotriazolate, 3,5-dinitro-1,2,4-triazolate, 2,4-dinitroimidazolate, 4-nitro-1,2,3-triazolate, 4,5-dinitroimidazolate, 4,5-dicyanoimidazolate, 4-nitroimidazolate, and tetrazolate). These salts have been characterized by DSC, TGA, and single crystal X-ray crystallography. The azolates in general are surprisingly stable in the systems explored. Ionic liquids were obtained with all combinations of the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium cation and the heterocyclic azolate anions studied, and with several combinations of tetraethyl- or tetrabutylammonium cations and the azolate anions. Favorable structure-property relationships were most often achieved when changing from 4- and 4,5-disubstituted anions to 3,5- and 2,4-disubstituted anions. The most promising anion for use in energetic ionic liquids of those studied here, was 3,5-dinitro-1,2,4-triazolate, based on its contributions to the entire set of target properties.
RESUMEN
The non-flammability of ionic liquids (ILs) is often highlighted as a safety advantage of ILs over volatile organic compounds (VOCs), but the fact that many ILs are not flammable themselves does not mean that they are safe to use near fire and/or heat sources; a large group of ILs (including commercially available ILs) are combustible due to the nature of their positive heats of formation, oxygen content, and decomposition products.
RESUMEN
The novel ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium 3,5-dinitro-1,2,4-triazolate has been synthesized and exhibits an unexpectedly low melting point (35 degrees C) considering the size and shape of the rigid, planar anion; analogous tetraalkylammonium salts (methyl, ethyl and n-butyl) have also been prepared and the tetraethylammonium example was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

A general synthesis of acyl azides from the corresponding N-acyl benzotriazoles is described. The procedure affords acyl azides in good yields and avoids the use of acid activators and NO+ equivalents typically employed to synthesize these compounds from acid chlorides and hydrazides, respectively.
RESUMEN
Friedel-Crafts reactions of N-protected (alpha-aminoacyl)benzotriazoles with hetero- and benzenoid- aromatics give alpha-amino ketones that can be reduced by either triethyl silane or sodium borohydride to form the corresponding beta- and gamma-amino acid derivatives. The preservation of chirality throughout this process is confirmed by chiral HPLC results.

Twenty-eight novel salts with tetramethyl-, tetraethyl-, and tetrabutylammonium and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium cations paired with 3,5-dinitro-1,2,4-triazolate, 4-nitro-1,2,3-triazolate, 2,4-dinitroimidazolate, 4,5-dinitroimidazolate, 4,5-dicyanoimidazolate, 4-nitroimidazolate, and tetrazolate anions have been prepared and characterized by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The effects of cation and anion type and structure on the physicochemical properties of the resulting salts, including several ionic liquids, have been examined and discussed. Ionic liquids (defined as having m.p.<100 degrees C) were obtained with all combinations of the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium cation ([C(4)mim](+)) and the heterocyclic azolate anions studied, and with several combinations of tetraethyl or tetrabutylammonium cations and the azolate anions. The [C(4)mim](+) azolates were liquid at room temperature exhibiting large liquid ranges and forming glasses on cooling with glass-transition temperatures in the range of -53 to -82 degrees C (except for the 3,5-dinitro-1,2,4-triazolate salt with m.p. 33 degrees C). Six crystal structures of the corresponding tetraalkylammonium salts were determined and the effects of changes to the cations and anions on the packing of the structure have been investigated.
RESUMEN
Reactions of lithiated heteroaryl- (or aryl-) methylbenzotriazoles 4a-e with heteroaryl (or aryl) esters 5a-f give alpha-benzotriazolyl ketones 6a-n in average yields of 90-95%. Oxidation of ketones 6a-l in aqueous DMSO in the presence of oxygen and sodium bicarbonate gave heteroaryl- (aryl-) 1,2-ethanediones 7a-l in average yields of 60-80%.
RESUMEN
Anions formed from the lithiation of 1-(1-benzotriazolylalkyl)benzotriazoles (1, 6) and 1-(1-methylthioalkyl)benzotriazoles (10 and 10a) with n-BuLi underwent additions to cyclic and acyclic ketones giving intermediates 3a-f, 7b-f, and 11b-d, respectively, in excellent yields. Thermal rearrangements of intermediates 3a,b,d-f and 7b-d,f in the presence of zinc bromide provided one-carbon chain-extended or ring-expanded alpha-benzotriazolyl ketones 4a,b,d-f and 8b-d,f in moderate yields with excellent regioselectivity. By contrast, intermediates 11b-d on treatment with zinc bromide loose a molecule of benzotriazole followed by intramolecular cyclization of the resulting intermediates 12b-d to provide the 2,3- and 1,2,3-substituted indenes 13b-d in good yields.
RESUMEN
The anion formed from the lithiation of 1-[(methylthio)methyl]-1H-benzotriazole 1 with n-BuLi adds to heteroaryl ketones to give 2-benzotriazolyl alcohols 3a-m. Thermolysis of 3a-g in the presence of zinc bromide induces a 1,2-shift of heteroaromatic groups to form ketones 4a-g. By contrast, in the rearrangement of 2-benzotriazolyl alcohols 3h,i,k-m migration of the phenyl group rather than the corresponding heteroaromatic groups occurred to give ketones 4h,i,k-m.
RESUMEN
Lithiation of 1-vinylbenzotriazole 9 with n-BuLi (2 equiv) generates dianion 10, which upon subsequent reaction with 1,2- and 1,4-diketones affords 14 and 13, representatives of the 5,6-dihydro-4H-[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5,1-ij]quinoline 1 and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5,1-kl][1]benzazocine 2 ring systems, respectively. Reactions of dianion 10 with isocyanates give 15a,b, which contain the 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5,1-jk][1,4]benzodiazepine 3 ring system.
RESUMEN
Reactions of secondary amides 2a-i with 1-chloro-1H-benzotriazole and triphenylphosphine give imidoylbenzotriazoles 3a-i. The treatment of 3a,b,e,g with silyl enol ethers 5a,b in the presence of potassium tert-butoxide provides a new general approach to enaminoketones 6a-h.
RESUMEN
Refluxing an aldehyde 1 with benzotriazole and benzylcarbamate in the presence of a catalytic amount of p-TsOH gave the corresponding benzyloxycarbonylamino-1-(1-benzotriazolyl)alkane 2 in good yields. Compounds 2 treated with substituted tert-butyl acetates 3 using LDA as a base afford smoothly and under mild conditions the N-2-protected 3-aminoalkanoic esters 4.
