An aerobic copper-catalyzed cascade oxidative isomerization/[4+4] cyclization of 2,2′-disubstituted stilbenes is described. Under the mild CuCl/DBED/air catalytic system, various 5,10-heteroatom-containing tetrahydroindeno[2,1-a]indenes were efficiently p

Targeting Streptococcus mutans is the primary focus in reducing dental caries, one of the most common maladies in the world. Previously, our groups discovered a potent bactericidal biaryl compound that was inspired by the natural product honokiol. Herein, a structure activity relationship (SAR) study to ascertain structural motifs key to inhibition is outlined. Furthermore, mechanism studies show that bacterial membrane disruption is central to the bacterial growth inhibition. During this process, it was discovered that analog C2 demonstrated a 4-fold better therapeutic index compared to the commercially available antimicrobial cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) making it a viable alternative for oral care.

A novel catalyst-free nitrene transfer reaction between stilbenes and iminoiodinanes was achieved for the first time, which provides an efficient and environmentally friendly way to access variously substituted 2,2-diaryl enamides under mild conditions. Mechanistic investigations suggested the reaction proceed via nitrene transfer and aromatic rearrangement with iminoiodinane also acting as a Lewis acid, benefitting the ring-opening of the aziridine intermediate.
