The coupling reagent PyBOP is widely used for the synthesis of different peptides and their amides, particularly for carboxamides of glycopeptide antibiotics of vancomycin or teicoplanin groups. The amidation reaction of the peptide core of the glycopeptide antibiotic eremomycin (I) with highly reactive amines in the presence of PyBOP is usually not accompanied by the formation of side products. However, the amidation of I with bulky amines (e.g., decyl amine and adamantyl amine) in the presence of PyBOP and Et3N or di-(i-Pr)2EtN (pH - 8.5) yielded N-unsubstituted carboxamide of eremomycin (Ia) as an admixture. The reaction of (I) or vancomycin (II) with an excess of PyBOP and Et3N (pH - 8.5) without addition of an amine or ammonia gave a mixture of products which contained higher amounts of the corresponding N-unsubstituted carboxamides (-20%). The structures of the samples of Ia and vancomycin amide (IIa) were proved by 1H NMR and ESI MS methods and confirmed by comparing with the authentic samples.

Concise Synthesis of Naphthalene-Based 14-Aza-12-Oxasteroids.

A concise, transition metal-free four-step synthetic pathway has been developed for the synthesis of tetracyclic heterosteroidal compounds, 14-aza-12-oxasteroids, starting from readily available 2-naphthol analogues. After conversion of 2-naphthols to 2-naphthylamines by the Bucherer reaction, subsequent selective C-acetylation was achieved via the Sugasawa reaction and reduction of the acetyl group using borohydride, which resulted into the corresponding amino-alcohols. The naphthalene-based amino-alcohols underwent double dehydrations and double intramolecular cyclization with oxo-acids leading to one-pot formation of a C-N bond, a C-O bond and an amide bond in tandem, to generate two additional rings completing the steroidal framework.

As important biocatalysts, nitrilases can efficiently convert nitrile groups into acids and ammonia in a mild and eco-friendly manner, being widely used in the synthesis of important pharmaceutical intermediates. Early studies reported that nitrilases only had the hydrolysis activity of catalyzing the formation of corresponding carboxylic acid products from nitriles, showing catalytic specificity. However, recent studies have shown that some nitrilases exhibit the hydration activity for catalyzing the formation of amides from nitriles, showing catalytic promiscuity.

Rationale: Local anesthesia is a widely used technique for emergency wound closure, with lidocaine among the most commonly employed local anesthetics. Allergic reactions to lidocaine are rare, with anaphylaxis being even more uncommon.
Patient Concerns And Diagnosis: This report describes a 72-year-old male patient who presented with a right foot injury and underwent wound suturing under lidocaine local anesthesia.
