Synthesis of Nα-protected amino acyl azides starting from corresponding acids via the carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) activation is described. The protocol is extended for a one-pot preparation of ureido peptides that circumvents the isolation of acyl azide and isocyanate intermediates. The reaction was accomplished without using any additives and base. The protocol is simple, clean, high yielding and free from racemization.

Herein, we report enhancement in chemical stability of the imine-based porphyrinic cage PL by converting it into a robust carbamate porphyrinic cage, c-PL, through a two-step post-synthetic modification process. First, the imine bonds in PL were reduced to form an amine-based cage, r-PL, followed by carbamation using N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) to yield c-PL. The resulting carbamate cage exhibits high stability under acidic and basic conditions (pH 1-13) and in the presence of moisture.

The development of novel antibacterial agents is urgently needed to tackle bacterial infection, the major global issue menacing human health. Among them, polymeric quaternary phosphonium salts are worth noticing owing to their strong antibacterial activities and other merits including low bacterial drug resistance. Herein, pullulan modified with quaternary phosphonium salts (PQP) was synthesized using esterification reactions of pullulan and (5-carboxypentyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (CPTPPB) mediated by N,N'‑carbonyldiimidazole (CDI), and was evaluated as novel antibacterial agents for treating wound infection for the first time.
