The reactions are generally highly selective and easy to work up, the catalyst can often be recovered and recycled, and the processes are atom effi cient. It is therefore no surprise that somewhere between 10–20% of the reactions used to produce chemicals today are catalytic hydrogenations. Despite the importance of the technique, and mainly because of its multidisciplinary nature, development chemists and engineers have a hard time fi nding training on this highly specialised subject. Scientifi c Update has fi lled this gap with a training course run for the fi rst time on the 16th and 17th of April 2012, in Brussels, Belgium (1). Attended by 35 scientists from 10 European countries and the USA, representing 27 chemical companies and research institutions, the course was an extensive scientifi c overview of heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation, but also touched on engineering, safety and economic topics. The tutor was Felix Roessler, a catalysis expert who during his long career has worked at Roche and DSM, was honoured twice with the Sandmeyer Award granted by the Swiss Chemical Society (2), has authored 18 publications or monographs and holds 4 patents.

An asymmetric one-pot tandem process has also been employed for the synthesis of the natural product, (+)-physoperuvine. This methodology was also applied to the generation of a late-stage intermediate that could be used in the synthesis of carbocyclic nucleosides, such as noraristeromycin.

  • Palladium on Carbon
    Palladium on Carbon [7440-05-3] · Pd · Palladium on Carbon · (MW 106.42) (catalyst for hydrogenation of alkenes, alkynes, ketones, nitriles, imines, azides, nitro groups, benzenoid and heterocyclic aromatics; used for hydrogenolysis of cyclopropanes, benzyl derivatives, epoxides, hydrazines, and halides; used to dehydrogenate aromatics and deformylate aldehydes) Solubility: insol all organic solvents and aqueous acidic media. Form Supplied in: black powder or pellets containing 0.5-30 wt % of Pd (typically 5 wt %); can be either dry or moist (50 wt % of H2O). Analysis of Reagent Purity: atomic absorption. Handling, Storage, and Precautions: can be stored safely in a closed container under air but away from solvents and potential poisons such as sulfur- and phosphorus-containing compounds. Pyrophoric in the presence of solvents. General precautions for handling hydrogenation catalysts should be followed. The catalyst must be suspended in the organic solvent under an atmosphere of N2. During filtration the filter cake must not be allowed to go dry. If a filter aid is necessary, a cellulose-based material should be used if catalyst recovery is desired. Hydrogenation and Hydrogenolysis: Carbon-Carbon Bonds. The use of Pd/C for the selective reduction of alkynes to alkenes is generally not satisfactory, but a few examples have been reported. For example, the Pd/C-catalyzed reduction of 3,6-dimethyl-4-octyne-3,6- 1 diol gave the enediol in 98% yield after absorption of 1 mol of H2. Further reduction gave the diol in 99% yield. Pd on other supports, such as Pd/CaCO3 and Pd/BaCO3, are much more effective for this conversion.

  • Development of New Novel Bacterial Topoisomerase Inhibitors As Promising Antibiotics with a 5-Amino-1,3-Dioxane Linker Moiety DI
    Development of New Novel Bacterial Topoisomerase Inhibitors as Promising Antibiotics with a 5-Amino-1,3-dioxane Linker Moiety DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Linsen Li Graduate Program in Pharmaceutical Sciences The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Committee: Mark J Mitton-Fry, Ph.D., Advisor Karl A Werbovetz, Ph.D. Mireia Guerau-de-Arellano, Ph.D. James R Fuchs, Ph.D. Copyright by Linsen Li 2019 Abstract Multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR) have become one of the greatest threats to human beings. Regardless of the mechanism of action involved, resistance has eventually developed after the clinical use of each class of antibiotics. Thus, new antibiotic classes with unprecedented mechanisms of action are in urgent demand. With a distinct mechanism of action, Novel Bacterial Topoisomerase Inhibitors (NBTIs) represent a promising new class of antibiotics. The recent development of NBTIs has been encouraging. Several NBTIs have processed to clinical trials, and one NBTI (Gepotidacin) has successfully completed Phase 2 clinical trials. However, the cardiac toxicity from the inhibition of hERG K+ channels is one of the major challenges in the discovery of NBTIs. In this work, a 5-amino-1,3-dioxane linker moiety was incorporated in new NBTIs to decrease hERG inhibition, which was demonstrated by comparison with several structure- matched pairs with other linker moieties. A variety of NBTIs with a 5-amino-1,3-dioxane linker have been synthesized and evaluated. Many of these newly synthesized NBTIs showed potent antibacterial activity, covering methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and fluoroquinolone-resistant strains.
