RESUMO
A pyrrolidine-mediated Knoevenagel-type reaction for highly stereoselective construction of novel α-halo-1,3-dienylsulfonyl fluorides was achieved in up to 100% Z-selectivity and high yields at room temperature from condensation of the readily available aldehydes and halomethanesulfonyl fluorides. This protocol provided a class of unique α-halo-1,3-dienylsulfonyl fluorides with wide scope and excellent functional group compatibility. The α-halo-1,3-dienylsulfonyl fluorides were used as versatile building blocks in sulfur fluoride exchange click chemistry, Suzuki reaction, and Sonogashira reaction for the assembly of highly functionalized dienyl sulfonyl fluoride derivatives to be applied as covalent warheads for the discovery of new drugs.
RESUMO
A simple, mild, and practical process for direct conversion of aldehydes to nitriles was developed feathering a wide substrate scope and great functional group tolerability (52 examples, over 90% yield in most cases) using inorganic reagents (NH2OH/Na2CO3/SO2F2) in DMSO. This method allows for transformations of readily available, inexpensive, and abundant aldehydes to highly valuable nitriles in a pot, atom, and step-economical manner without transition metals. This protocol will serve as a robust tool for the installation of cyano-moieties to complicated molecules.
RESUMO
Direct synthesis of alkynes from inexpensive, abundant alcohols was achieved in high yields (greater than 40 examples, up to 95% yield) through a SO2F2-promoted dehydration and dehydrogenation process. This straightforward transformation of sp3-sp3 (C-C) bonds to sp-sp (C≡C) bonds requires only inexpensive and readily available reagents (no transition metals) under mild conditions. The crude alkynes are sufficiently free of impurities to permit direct use in further transformations, as illustrated by regioselective Huisgen alkyne-azide cycloaddition reactions with PhN3 to give 1,4-substituted 1,2,3-traiazoles (16 examples, up to 92% yield) and Sonogashira couplings (10 examples, up to 77% yield).
RESUMO
Amino acids/peptide conjugated heterocycles represent an important class of therapeutical agents. Biologically active heterocycles are conjugated with amino acids or peptides to increase the drug resistance. Furthermore, the amino acid/peptide based drugs have low toxicity, ample bioavailability and permeability, modest potency and good metabolic and pharmacokinetic properties. Synthetic amino acid/peptides based heterocyclic conjugates constitute a promising choice for the development of new, less toxic and safer conventional pharmaceutical drugs in the near future. In this review, we discuss and highlight the recent findings of the structural features that encourage biological applications of amino acid/peptides based conjugates.

Trifluoromethylthiolation and trifluoromethylselenolation of alkynyl(phenyl)iodonium tosylates by [XCF3]- (X = S, Se) ions was accomplished in 5-10 minutes at room temperature under a N2 atmosphere and provided a variety of alkynyl trifluoromethyl sulfides and selenides in good yields. Compared to the known methods, this approach has several advantages such as short reaction times and metal- and additive-free conditions without needing excess [Me4N][XCF3] reagents. Moreover, the less efficient reactions of (phenylethynyl)benziodoxol(on)e with [Me4N][XCF3] under the standard conditions demonstrate that acyclic alkynyl(phenyl)iodoniums are more powerful alkynyl sources in the conversion. This protocol allows for a fast and convenient access to numerous alkynyl trifluoromethyl sulfides and selenides.
RESUMO
Peptides have gained increased interest as therapeutics during recent years. More than 60 peptide drugs have reached the market for the benefit of patients and several hundreds of novel therapeutic peptides are in preclinical and clinical development. The key contributor to this success is the potent and specific, yet safe, mode of action of peptides. Among the wide range of biologically-active peptides, naturally-occurring marine-derived cyclopolypeptides exhibit a broad range of unusual and potent pharmacological activities. Because of their size and complexity, proline-rich cyclic peptides (PRCPs) occupy a crucial chemical space in drug discovery that may provide useful scaffolds for modulating more challenging biological targets, such as protein-protein interactions and allosteric binding sites. Diverse pharmacological activities of natural cyclic peptides from marine sponges, tunicates and cyanobacteria have encouraged efforts to develop cyclic peptides with well-known synthetic methods, including solid-phase and solution-phase techniques of peptide synthesis. The present review highlights the natural resources, unique structural features and the most relevant biological properties of proline-rich peptides of marine-origin, focusing on the potential therapeutic role that the PRCPs may play as a promising source of new peptide-based novel drugs.

A convenient protocol for the exclusively regio- and stereoselective installation of a bromine atom on the 2-arylvinylsulfonyl fluorides using lithium bromide (LiBr) as the bromine source was described, providing (Z)-1-bromo-2-arylethene-1-sulfonyl fluorides (Z-BASF) with versatile reactive handles (bromide, vinyl, and sulfonyl fluoride) in ≤88% yield. Meanwhile, Z-BASF molecules displayed various reactivities in a series of chemical transformations.
RESUMO
Antibacterial-resistance speaks to an overall alarm, particularly in regards to the flare-up of methicillin-resistance Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a classic reason for genuine skin and flimsy tissues diseases. Clinically noteworthy antibacterial-resistance is probably the best challenge of the 21st century. Notwithstanding, new-fangled antibiotics are right now being created at a much more slow pace than our developing requirement for such drugs. The intriguing atomic structure of indole ring makes them appropriate possibility for the drug advancement. In this scaled down survey we abridge novel indole-based derivatives potency against diverse bacterial strains. Specifically, we plot the connection between the different structures of altered indole derivatives along with its antibacterial movement against multidrug-resistance MRSA could be discussed. This prepared information may fill in as a target for the adjustment of accessible molecules to plan new powerful antibacterial agents with lesser side effects.

The protocol for simple, efficient, and mild synthesis of oxazolyl sulfonyl fluorides was developed through Rh2(OAc)4-catalyzed annulation of methyl-2-diazo-2-(fluorosulfonyl)acetate (MDF) or its ethyl ester derivative with nitriles. This practical method provides a general and direct route to a unique class of highly functionalized oxazolyl-decorated sulfonyl fluoride warheads with great potential in medicinal chemistry, chemical biology, and drug discovery.
RESUMO
A clickable connective hub 1-bromo-2-triazolethane-1-sulfonyl fluoride BTESF (1) was developed and successfully applied for the fluorosulfonylvinylation of a host of primary and secondary cyclic or acyclic amines including amino acids and pharmaceuticals. Further antimicrobial experiments revealed that vinyl sulfonyl fluoride functionalized norfloxacin (3ak), ciprofloxacin (3am), and lomefloxacin (3an) exhibited 4-fold improved antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria compared to their parent drugs.
RESUMO
We discovered that with the promotion of sulfuryl fluoride, the carbonyl groups of amides performed as nucleophiles while the hydroxyl groups of alcohols were activated to functionalize as electrophiles. This study displayed that the amide C-N bonds could be easily cleaved with delicate nucleophiles to form the ester C-O bonds at room temperature without using transition metals. The broad substrate scope and excellent functional group compatibility were proved with 44 examples in up to 99% yields.

This method tolerates a broad range of functional groups and is also applicable for the modification of complicated natural products.
RESUMO
Silver-mediated direct trifluoromethoxylation of α-diazo esters and ketosteroid was disclosed. The reactions of alkyl α-diazo arylacetates with AgOCF3 or CF3SO2OCF3/AgF at -30 to 10 °C under a N2 atmosphere provided α-trifluoromethoxyl arylacetates in up to 90% yield, while alkyl α-diazo vinylacetates reacting with CF3SO2OCF3/AgF or AgOCF3 afforded γ-trifluoromethoxyl α,ß-unsaturated esters in up to 94% yield. The α-diazo ketosteroid was also trifluoromethoxylated under the standard reaction conditions. This protocol allows for an effective and convenient access to a large number of synthetic building blocks, which are promising in the development of new functional OCF3-molecules.
