Some of the amidopyridines and all thioamidopyridines were tested for their antimycobacterial activity against atypical mycobacterial strains. Promising photosynthesis-inhibiting activity was also found for some of the amidopyridines.

The values of relevant torsion angles and calculated puckering parameters revealed a distortion into the direction of 0 H 5 , thus indicating a flattening at C-1 and C-4.

| Download PDF Full-text (23 KB) Abstract: The use of enzymes in organic solvents has acquired a special relevance in organic synthesis, and lipases are the enzymes most commonly used in transesterication reactions. In the past few years, we have shown the utility of enzymatic aminolysis and ammonolysis reactions for the preparation of amides and for the resolution of esters and amines. The enzymatic alkoxycarbonylation reaction is of great utility in chemoselective reactions of natural products. Lipases, enzymes much less exploited in organic synthesis, have an increasing interest, especially the use of (R )-oxynitrilases for the synthesis of optically active cyanohydrins.

In contrast to aziridine-2-carboxylates, the lactones react regiospecifically at C-2 with soft nucleophiles to provide optically pure substituted β-amino acid precursors. Hard nucleophiles react exclusively at the C-3 position to provide α-amino acid precursors. The utility of this methodology was demonstrated by the preparation of (3S,4S)-dihydroxy-L-glutamic acid (DHGA) from the appropriate aziridine-γ-lactone. DHGA was subsequently shown to be a selective partial agonist of mGluR1 receptors. A more concise preparation of aziridine-γ-lactones was achieved by 1,4-Michael addition of benzylamine to 2-O-triflylbutenolides. Use of a 2-O-mesylbutenolide led, under the same conditions, to the corresponding aziridine-2-carboxamides or 2-carboxylates. Finally, a new Evanstype aziridinating agent, Ses-iminoiodinane, was developed and shown to react efficiently with unsaturated substrates to give the corresponding aziridines, whose N-Ses protecting groups can be removed under mild conditions.

From their apolar extracts 55 new diterpenes of six skeleton types, naphtoquinones and flavonoids have been isolated. Among the different diterpenes malonic substitutions and bis-diterpenes in which both units are joined by a malonic acid unit stand out. Pimaranes present C-9 epimerisation and, consequently, H-9 has the same orientation as Me-20. From C.sessilis naphthoquinones with antichagasic activity have been isolated; and the biotransformation of 2α,19-dihydroxy-9-epi-entpimara-7,15-diene with Giberella fujikuroi produced 7 new diterpenes.

The values of K’s vary among 900 (Lkg-1 ) and 2,900 (Lkg-1 ) showing a general and marked increase for residues of increasing age. The determined parameters are useful for the modeling of environmental impact in polluted soils.

All the tests were performed over several selective oxidation zeolite catalysts, synthesized and characterized in our laboratory.

| Download PDF Full-text (31 KB) Abstract: The preparation of monoarylidene and both symmetrical and unsymmetrical bisarylidene derivatives of piperazine-2,5-dione is described. The use of 1,4-diacetylpiperazine-2,5-dione make it possible to prepare unsymmetrical bisarylidenes. The introduction of a dicyanomethylene moiety into the para position of one of the arylidene groups gave a remarkable deepening in the colour of the resulting compounds 11 and 16.
