Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane-catalyzed CC bond functionalization of arylallyl alcohols using donor-acceptor carbenes is presented. The allylic hydroxyl group is found to assist the product formation by neighboring group participation providing a clue towards mechanistic understanding. This method can also be employed to effect homologation of allyl alcohols to homoallyl alcohols. Overall, this metal-free transformation presents a novel disconnection strategy towards carbon-carbon bond scission and formation.

CrtN has been identified as an attractive and druggable target for treating pigmented Staphylococcus aureus infections. More than 100 new compounds were synthesized, which target the overwhelming the defects of the CrtN inhibitor 1. Analogues 23a and 23b demonstrated a significant activity against pigmented S. aureus Newman and 13 MRSA strains (IC50 = 0.02-10.5 nM), along with lower hERG inhibition (IC50 > 30 μM, ~10-fold decrease in comparison with 1). Furthermore, 23a and 23b were confirmed to reduce the staphylococcal load in the kidney and heart in a mouse model with normal treatment deeper than pretreatment ones, comparable even with vancomycin and linezolid. Remarkably, 23a could strongly block the pigment biosynthesis of these nine multidrug-resistant MRSA strains, including excellent activity against LRSA strains and VISA strains in vivo, and all of which demonstrated that 23a has a huge potential against intractable MRSA, VISA, and LRSA issues as a therapeutic drug.

Our previous work (Wang et al. J. Med. Chem. 2016, 59, 4831-4848) revealed that effective benzocycloalkane-derived staphyloxanthin inhibitors against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infections were accompanied by poor water solubility and high hERG inhibition and dosages (preadministration). In this study, 92 chroman and coumaran derivatives as novel inhibitors have been addressed for overcoming deficiencies above. Derivatives 69 and 105 displayed excellent pigment inhibitory activities and low hERG inhibition, along with improvement of solubility by salt type selection. The broad and significantly potent antibacterial spectra of 69 and 105 were displayed first with normal administration in the livers and hearts in mice against pigmented S. aureus Newman, Mu50 (vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus), and NRS271 (linezolid-resistant S. aureus), compared with linezolid and vancomycin. In summary, both 69 and 105 have the potential to be developed as good antibacterial candidates targeting virulence factors.
