AI Article Synopsis

  • A new microwave-assisted procedure was created to efficiently synthesize two types of compounds: N-heteroaryl-4-(2-chloroethyl)piperazines and N-heteroaryl-4-(2-chloroethyl)piperidines.
  • The process involves irradiating electron-deficient heteroaryl chlorides with DABCO or quinuclidine at specific temperatures (160°C and 180°C) for 15 minutes, resulting in high yields of the desired products.
  • Additionally, a one-pot, two-step method was introduced to produce a variety of 4-(2-acetoxyethyl)-substituted N-heteroarylpiperazines and N-heteroarylpiperidines simultaneously, showcasing

Article Abstract

A highly efficient procedure was developed for the microwave-assisted synthesis of N-heteroaryl-4-(2-chloroethyl)piperazines and N-heteroaryl-4-(2-chloroethyl)piperidines. Microwave irradiation of electron deficient heteroaryl chlorides with 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) at 160 degrees C for 15 min led to N-heteroaryl-4-(2-chloroethyl)piperazines in good to excellent yields. In a similar manner, microwave irradiation of electron deficient heteroaryl chlorides with quinuclidine at 180 degrees C for 15 min provided N-heteroaryl-4-(2-chloroethyl)piperidines in good to excellent yields. Extension of the method was demonstrated by the development of a one-pot, two-step microwave-assisted protocol for the synthesis of 4-(2-acetoxyethyl)-substituted N-heteroarylpiperazines and N-heteroarylpiperidines to demonstrate the production of a small library in a parallel fashion.

Sulfonamides are prevalent functional groups represented in both natural and pharmaceutical products. The synthesis of sulfonamides is often straightforward when using nucleophilic amines and electrophilic sulfonyl chlorides. When reactivity challenges arise for nontraditional substrates, harsh conditions or new synthetic routes may be required.

In nature, environmental conditions strongly fluctuate, frequently subjecting plants to periods of immediate photo-oxidative stress. The small molecule ascorbate allows plants to cope with such stress conditions. Ascorbate scavenges reactive oxygen species and enables the rapid and full induction of photoprotective non-photochemical quenching (NPQ).

Red blood cells (RBCs) serve as natural transporters and can be modified to enhance the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a protein cargo. Affinity targeting of Factor IX (FIX) to the RBC membrane is a promising approach to improve the (pro)enzyme's pharmacokinetics. For RBC targeting, purified human FIX was conjugated to the anti-mouse glycophorin A monoclonal antibody Ter119.

Phosphorus (P) deficiency is a critical factor limiting crop productivity, primarily due to its detrimental effects on photosynthesis and dry matter accumulation. In this study, we investigate the role of the rice gene OsPHT2;1 in mediating chloroplast P homeostasis and its subsequent impact on photosynthetic function under low P conditions. Stomatal conductance is typically positively correlated with net photosynthetic rates; however, P deficiency disrupts this relationship, leading to reduced stomatal opening and diminished photosynthetic efficiency.
