An new overall lower energy pathway for the amine-catalysed Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction is proposed from computations at the M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level. The pathway involves proton-transfer from the ammonium ion to the alkoxide formed from the aldol reaction through a seven-membered ring transition state (TS) structure followed by highly exothermic Hofmann<i> </i>elimination through a five-membered ring TS structure to form the product and also release the catalyst to carry on with the process all over again.

<div> <div> <div> <p>We report a static quantum chemistry modeling treatment to study how solvent molecules affect chemical reaction mechanisms without dynamics simulations. This modeling scheme uses a global optimization procedure to identify low energy intermediate states with different numbers of explicit solvent molecules and then the growing string method to locate sequential transition states along a reaction pathway. Testing this approach on the acid-catalyzed Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) reaction in methanol, we found a reaction mechanism that is consistent with both recent experiments and computationally intensive dynamics simulations with explicit solvation. In doing so, we explain unphysical pitfalls that obfuscate computational modeling that uses microsolvated reaction intermediates. This new paramedic approach can promisingly capture essential physical chemistry of the complicated and multistep MBH reaction mechanism, and the energy profiles found with this model appear reasonably insensitive to the level of theory used for energy calculations. Thus, it should be a useful and computationally cost-effective approach for modeling solvent mediated reaction mechanisms when dynamics simulations are not possible. </p> </div> </div> </div>

Were developed new and practical synthesis of (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate and (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate. The routes involve, as the key step, the use of the mercury derivative of the terminal-alkyne w-functionalised as intermediate. The synthesis of (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate was based on a C6+C2=C8 and C8+C4=C12 coupling scheme, starting from 1,6-hexane-diol. The first coupling reaction took place between 1-tert-butoxy-6-bromo-hexane and lithium acetylide-ethylendiamine complex obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-oct-7-yne, which is transformed in di[tert-butoxy-oct-7-yne]mercury. The mercury derivative was directly lithiated and then alkylated with 1-bromobutane obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dodec-7-yne. After acetylation and reduction with lithium aluminium hydride of 7-dodecyne-1-yl acetate gave (Z)-7-dodecene-1-yl acetate with 96 % purity. The synthesis of (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate was based on a C8+C2=C10 and C10+C2=C12 coupling scheme, starting from 1,8-octane-diol. The first coupling reaction took place between 1-tert-butoxy-8-bromo-octane and lithium acetylide-ethylendiamine complex obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dec-9-yne, which is transformed in di[tert-butoxy-dec-9-yne]mercury. The mercury derivative was directly lithiated and then alkylated with 1-bromoethane obtaining 1-tert-butoxy-dodec-9-yne. After reduction with lithium aluminium hydride of 1-tert-butoxy-(E)-9-dodecene and acetylation was obtained (E)-9-dodecene-1-yl acetate with 97 % purity.

Background:A novel copper-catalyzed synthesis of substituted-1,2,3-triazole derivatives has been developed and performed by Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azides with alkynes. The reaction is one-pot multicomponent.Objective:We state the advancement and execution of a methodology allowing for the synthesis of some new substituted 1,2,3-triazole analogues with antimicrobial activity.Methods:A series of triazole derivatives was synthesized by Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azides with alkynes. The structures of the synthesized compounds were elucidated and confirmed by 1H NMR, IR, MS and elemental analysis. All the synthesized compounds were tested for their antimicrobial activity against a series of strains of Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli for antibacterial activity and against the strains of Candida albicans, Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus nigar for antifungal activity, respectively.Results and Conclusion:From the antimicrobial data, it was observed that all the newly synthesized compounds showed good to moderate level of antibacterial and antifungal activity.
