RESUMO
A visible-light-induced radical cascade regioselective acylation/cyclization of 1,7-dienes with acyl oxime esters for the preparation of acylation polycyclic compounds via NCR-mediated C-C σ-bond cleavage is established. The transformation involves the cleavage of the C-C σ-bond in acyl oxime esters and selective addition of the electron neutral CâC bonds in 1,7-dienes for the synthesis of acyl polycyclic quinolinone derivatives, not the traditional seven-membered ring products. The strategy offers several advantages, including broad substrate tolerance, no need for bases, hyperstoichiometric radical initiators, and other auxiliaries.
RESUMO
An oxidant-assisted tandem sulfonylation/cyclization of electron-deficient alkenes with 4-alkyl-substituted Hantzsch esters and Na2S2O5 for the preparation of 3-alkylsulfonylated oxindoles under mild conditions in the absence of a photocatalyst and transition metal catalyst is established. The mechanism studies show that the alkyl radicals, which come from the cleavage of the C-C bond in 4-substituted Hantzsch esters under oxidant conditions, subsequently undergo the in situ insertion of sulfur dioxide to generate the crucial alkylsulfonyl radical intermediates. This three-component reaction provides an efficient and facile route for the construction of alkylsulfonylated oxindoles and avoids the use of highly toxic alkylsulfonyl chlorides or alkylsulfonyl hydrazines as alkylsulfonyl sources.
RESUMO
A visible-light-induced radical cyclization reaction of o-vinylaryl isocyanides and oxime esters to access various 2,4-disubstituted quinolines was disclosed. Oxime esters were employed as acyl radical precursors via the carbon-carbon bond cleavage. It provided an effective way for the synthesis of 2-acyl-4-arlysubstituted quinolines under mild conditions and exhibited good functional group tolerance and substrate applicability.
RESUMO
We herein report an efficient photoredox radical cyclization reaction of o-vinylaryl isocyanides with acyl chlorides to access a wide range of 2,4-disubstituted quinolines. Preliminary mechanism experiment results suggested that this reaction was initiated by an acyl radical generated from acyl chlorides through a single-electron-transfer (SET) process. This transformation showed good substrate suitability and functional group compatibility at room temperature.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of pneumococcal meningitis (PM), and drug sensitivity of Streptococcus pneumoniae (SP) isolates in Chinese children. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical information, laboratory data, and microbiological data of 160 hospitalized children under 15 years old with PM from January 2019 to December 2020 in 33 tertiary hospitals across the country. RESULTS: Among the 160 children with PM, there were 103 males and 57 females. The age ranged from 15 days to 15 years, with 109 cases (68.1%) aged 3 months to under 3 years. SP strains were isolated from 95 cases (59.4%) in cerebrospinal fluid cultures and from 57 cases (35.6%) in blood cultures. The positive rates of SP detection by cerebrospinal fluid metagenomic next-generation sequencing and cerebrospinal fluid SP antigen testing were 40% (35/87) and 27% (21/78), respectively. Fifty-five cases (34.4%) had one or more risk factors for purulent meningitis, 113 cases (70.6%) had one or more extra-cranial infectious foci, and 18 cases (11.3%) had underlying diseases. The most common clinical symptoms were fever (147 cases, 91.9%), followed by lethargy (98 cases, 61.3%) and vomiting (61 cases, 38.1%). Sixty-nine cases (43.1%) experienced intracranial complications during hospitalization, with subdural effusion and/or empyema being the most common complication [43 cases (26.9%)], followed by hydrocephalus in 24 cases (15.0%), brain abscess in 23 cases (14.4%), and cerebral hemorrhage in 8 cases (5.0%). Subdural effusion and/or empyema and hydrocephalus mainly occurred in children under 1 year old, with rates of 91% (39/43) and 83% (20/24), respectively. SP strains exhibited complete sensitivity to vancomycin (100%, 75/75), linezolid (100%, 56/56), and meropenem (100%, 6/6). High sensitivity rates were also observed for levofloxacin (81%, 22/27), moxifloxacin (82%, 14/17), rifampicin (96%, 25/26), and chloramphenicol (91%, 21/23). However, low sensitivity rates were found for penicillin (16%, 11/68) and clindamycin (6%, 1/17), and SP strains were completely resistant to erythromycin (100%, 31/31). The rates of discharge with cure and improvement were 22.5% (36/160) and 66.2% (106/160), respectively, while 18 cases (11.3%) had adverse outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Pediatric PM is more common in children aged 3 months to under 3 years. Intracranial complications are more frequently observed in children under 1 year old. Fever is the most common clinical manifestation of PM, and subdural effusion/emphysema and hydrocephalus are the most frequent complications. Non-culture detection methods for cerebrospinal fluid can improve pathogen detection rates. Adverse outcomes can be noted in more than 10% of PM cases. SP strains are high sensitivity to vancomycin, linezolid, meropenem, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, rifampicin, and chloramphenicol.

An efficient strategy for visible-light-promoted decarboxylative alkylation of vinylcyclopropanes with alkyl N-(acyloxy)phthalimide esters through the dual C-C bond and single N-O bond cleavage, employing triphenylphosphine and lithium iodide as the photoredox system to synthesize 2-alkylated 3,4-dihydronaphthalenes, has been established. This alkylation/cyclization involves a radical process and undergoes a sequence of N-(acyloxy)phthalimide ester single-electron reduction, N-O bond cleavage, decarboxylative, alkyl radical addition, C-C bond cleavage, and intramolecular cyclization. Moreover, using the photocatalyst Na2-Eosin Y instead of triphenylphosphine and lithium iodide, the vinyl transfer products are acquired when vinylcyclobutanes or vinylcyclopentanes are utilized as alkyl radical receptors.

Cyclobutanone oximes and their derivatives are pivotal core structural motifs in organic chemistry. Iminyl-radical-triggered C-C bond cleavage of cyclobutanone oximes delivers an efficient strategy to produce stable distal cyano-substituted alkyl radicals, which can capture SO2, CO or O2 to form cyanoalkylsulfonyl radicals, cyanoalkylcarbonyl radicals or cyanoalkoxyl radicals under mild conditions. In the past several years, cyanoalkylsulfonylation/cyanoalkylcarbonyaltion/cyanoalkoxylation has attracted a lot of interest. In this updated report, the strategies for trapping SO2, CO or O2via iminyl-radical-triggered ring-opening of cyclobutanone oximes are summarized.
RESUMO
The aerial parts of Glycyrrhiza uralensis supply substantial raw material for the extraction of active pharmaceutical ingredients comprehensively utilized in many industries. Our previous study indicated that salt stress increased the content of active ingredients. However, the regulatory mechanism remains unclear. In this study, RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of the aerial parts of G. uralensis treated with 150 mM NaCl for 0, 2, 6, and 12 h was performed to identify the key genes and metabolic pathways regulating pharmacological active component accumulation. The main active component detection showed that liquiritin was the major ingredient and exhibited more than a ten-fold significant increase in the 6 h NaCl treatment. Temporal expression analysis of the obtained 4245 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) obtained by RNA-seq revealed two screened profiles that included the significant up-regulated DEGs (UDEGs) at different treatment points. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis of these UDEGs identified phenylpropanoid metabolism and flavonoid biosynthesis as the most significantly enriched pathways in 2 h treated materials. Interestingly, the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway that is related to ABA synthesis was also discovered, and the ABA content was significantly promoted after 6 h NaCl treatment. Following ABA stimulation, the content of liquiritin demonstrated a significant and immediate increase after 2 h treatment, with the corresponding consistent expression of genes involved in the pathways of ABA signal transduction and flavonoid biosynthesis, but not in the pathway of glycyrrhizic acid biosynthesis. Our study concludes that salt stress might promote liquiritin accumulation through the ABA-mediated signaling pathway, and provides effective reference for genetic improvement and comprehensive utilization of G. uralensis.

A method for the preparation of 3-alkylated spiro[4.5]trienones via alkylation/ipso-cyclization of activated alkynes with 4-alkyl-DHPs under transition-metal-free conditions is proposed. This alkylation successively undergoes the generation of alkyl radicals, addition of alkyl radicals to the alkynes, and intramolecular ipso-cyclization. The mechanism studies suggest that the alkylation/ipso-cyclization involves a radical process. This ipso-cyclization procedure shows a series of advantages, such as accessibility, mild conditions, high efficiency, greater safety, and an environmentally friendly method.

A new protocol is herein described for the direct generation of alkylated indolo/benzoimidazo[2,1-a]isoquinolin-6(5H)-one derivatives by using Hantzsch esters as alkylation radical precursors using a photoredox/K2S2O8 system. This oxidative alkylation of active alkenes involves a radical cascade cyclization process and a sequence of Hantzsch ester single electron oxidation, C-C bond cleavage, alkylation, arylation and oxidative deprotonation.
RESUMO
The transition-metal-free alkylation/cyclization of activated alkenes using Hantzsch ester derivatives as effective alkyl reagents is described. A wide variety of valuable oxindoles was constructed in a single step with excellent selectivity. The reaction occurs through the formation of alkyl radical species followed by the tandem addition/annulation of olefins under oxidative conditions. This protocol is expected to offer inspiration for developing novel and efficient applications of Hantzsch esters in organic synthesis.
RESUMO
A convenient and efficient visible-light-induced tandem acylation/cyclization of N-propargylindoles with aryl- or alkyl-substituted acyl oxime esters for the synthesis of 2-acyl-substituted 9H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles under transition-metal-free conditions, which proceeds via nitrogen-centered radical-mediated cleavage of the C-C σ-bond in acyl oxime esters, is established. The aryl or alkyl acyl radicals, which come from acyl oxime esters, attack the C-C triple bonds in N-propargylindoles and then go through intramolecular cyclization/isomerization.
RESUMO
A novel and mild Cu-catalyzed oxidative dual arylation of carbon-carbon double bonds in acrylamides with 3-aminoindazoles is proposed for the synthesis of cyanoarylated oxindoles. Notably, 3-aminoindazoles are employed as efficient arylating agents via the cleavage of two C-N bonds. This oxidative dual arylation of active alkenes involves a radical process and undergoes a sequence of 3-aminoindazole oxidation, two-C-N-bond cleavage, cyanoaryl radical addition, and intramolecular cyclization.

A nitrogen-centered radical-mediated carbon-carbon bond cleavage strategy is described to synthesize functionalized 3-acylcoumarins. The strategy is enabled by the visible-light-induced acylation/cyclization of alkynoates with various acyl oxime compounds in acetonitrile. The difunctionalization of carbon-carbon triple bonds precedes the generation of iminyl radicals, which is followed by the formation of acyl radicals. The acyl radicals then attack the carbon-carbon triple bonds, followed by 5-exo-trig cyclization and 1,2-ester migration. This strategy has wide substrate adaptability and good substituent tolerance.
RESUMO
A visible-light-mediated tandem cyanoalkylsulfonylation/cyclization of alkynoates with cycloketone oxime compounds for the preparation of 3-cyanoalkylsulfonylcoumarins via SO2 insertion is reported. The difunctionalization of carbon-carbon triple bonds includes a radical mechanism and involves the formation of an iminyl radical, ring-opening of the cycloketone, insertion of SO2, addition of the sulfonyl radical to carbon-carbon triple bonds, ipso-cyclization and ester migration.
RESUMO
A novel and convenient visible light-catalyzed tandem radical cyclization of N-propargylindoles with acyl chlorides for accessing 2-acyl-9H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles is established. This transformation involves sequential addition of the acyl radical to the carbon-carbon triple bond, intramolecular cyclization with the 2-position of indole, and isomerization of the carbon-carbon double bond. The experimental results show that this reaction contains a radical pathway and a radical chain process is not the major pathway for the formation of products.
RESUMO
A copper-promoted oxidative cyanomethylation/ring-expansion of vinylcyclopropanes with α-C(sp3)-H bonds in alkyl nitriles is established for the generation of 1-cyanoethylated 3,4-dihydronaphthalenes. This cyanomethylation/ring-expansion involves a radical pathway and proceeds via cyanomethyl radical formation, radical addition and ring-expansion. This ring-expansion strategy offers a highly atom-economical route for the construction of nitrile-containing 3,4-dihydronaphthalenes, which can be transformed into other useful products under simple conditions.
RESUMO
A novel and efficient AgNO3-facilitated oxidative C-C σ-bond difunctionalization of alkylidenecyclopropanes with α-ketoacids for preparing 2-acyl-substituted 3,4-dihydronaphthalenes is developed. This radical acylation/arylation transformation proceeds via decarboxylation of the α-ketoacid, acylation of the carbon-carbon double bond, cleavage of the carbon-carbon σ-bond, and cyclization with a connected aromatic ring and offers a mild and facile strategy for acylation/arylation of carbon-carbon σ-bonds with an acyl radical and an aromatic ring to build two new carbon-carbon bonds. This method uses an inexpensive oxidant, features a wide substrate scope, and is operationally simple.
