The Mycobacterium sp. BRS2A-AR2 is an endophyte of the mangrove plant Rhizophora racemosa G. Mey., which grows along the banks of the River Butre, in the Western Region of Ghana. Chemical profiling using 1H-NMR and HRESI-LC-MS of fermentation extracts produced by the strain led to the isolation of the new compound, α-d-Glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-[6-O-(l-tryptophanyl)-β-d–fructofuranoside] or simply tortomycoglycoside (1). Compound 1 is an aminoglycoside consisting of a tryptophan moiety esterified to a disaccharide made up of β-d-fructofuranose and α-d-glucopyranose sugars. The full structure of 1 was determined using UV, IR, 1D, 2D-NMR and HRESI-LC-MS data. When tested against Trypanosoma brucei subsp. brucei, the parasite responsible for Human African Trypanosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa, 1 (IC50 11.25 µM) was just as effective as Coptis japonica (Thunb.) Makino. (IC50 8.20 µM). The extract of Coptis japonica (Thunb.) Makino. is routinely used as laboratory standard due to its powerful antitrypanosomal activity. It is possible that, compound 1 interferes with the normal uptake and metabolism of tryptophan in the T. brucei subsp. brucei parasite. Full article

Hydrazones were obtained in 76–78% yield via condensation of (2S,5R)-2-isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexanone with 4-R-phenoxyacetic acid hydrazides in the presence of a catalytic amount of glacial acetic acid. The structure of the target compounds has been established by FTIR-ATR, Raman, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectral analysis and EI/FAB/ESI mass spectrometry. Thermal properties of hydrazones 3a3e were elucidated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and their purity by HPLC coupled to mass spectrometry. Synthesized compounds were found to exist as Z/E geometrical isomers about C=N bond and cis/trans amide conformers. Full article

Abstract
A simple approach to synthesize 4b,5,6,9-tetrahydro-7H-dibenzo[c,e]pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepin- 7-one has been developed, based on a three-step transformation of 2-(2-bromophenyl)cyclopropane-1,1-diester. The key stage in this method is an intramolecular cross-coupling of 1-(2-bromobenzyl)-5-(2-bromophenyl)pyrrolidin-2-one under continuous flow conditions in an H-Сube-Pro using commercially available supported Pd catalysts.

N-aminorhodanine as well as isatin are highly solicited motifs known for their wide potential for biological activity. The objective of this work was to synthesize hybrid molecules as kinase inhibitors from these two motifs. In order to study the reactivity of the two active centers in aminorhodanine (N-amino group and the 5-methylene group) toward two carbonyl groups (aromatic aldehyde and ketone of isatin), we decided to carry out a one-pot multi-component reaction by simultaneously introducing aminorhodanine, isatin, and an aromatic aldehyde in ethanol in the presence of AcOEt. Under these conditions, this reaction led to a single adduct. The reaction product structure was confirmed by 1H, 13C-NMR, X-ray single crystal analysis, and high-resolution mass HRMS analysis. As a result, the method used has been very effective and totally stereo- and regioselective. Full article

The title NiII complex, Ni(L)(LH2) (1), where LH2 is S-2-methybenzyl-β-N-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylmethylene) dithiocarbazate, was isolated from the reaction of Ni(acetate)2·4H2O and two molar equivalents of LH2. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopy (IR and UV) as well as by a single-crystal X-ray structure determination. The nickel(II) center is coordinated within a cis-NOS2 donor set that defines a square planar geometry. Three donor atoms, i.e., N, O, and S, are provided by a doubly deprotonated S-2-methybenzyl-β-N-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylmethylene) dithiocarbazate ligand while the fourth donor, i.e., a thione-S, comes from the neutral form of the dithiocarbazate ligand. In the LH2 ligand, an intramolecular hydroxy-O-H⋯N(imine) hydrogen bond is found. There is also an intra-ligand, charge assisted amine-N-H⋯O(phenoxide) hydrogen bond. A notable feature of the molecular packing is the formation of supramolecular chains sustained by π…π stacking interactions whereby the interacting rings are the five- and six-membered chelate and methoxybenzene rings. The chains are connected into a three-dimensional architecture by methyl-C-H⋯O(methoxy), methoxy-C-H⋯S(ester), and tolyl-C-H⋯π(tolyl) interactions. Full article
