Inspired by the core fragment of antibacterial natural products such as streptolydigin, 3-acyltetramic acids and 3-acylpiperidine-2,4-diones have been synthesised from the core heterocycle by direct acylation with the substituted carboxylic acids using a strategy which permits ready access to a structurally diverse compound library. The antibacterial activity of these systems has been established against a panel of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with activity mostly against the former, which in some cases is very potent. Data consistent with modes of action against undecaprenylpyrophosphate synthase (UPPS) and/or RNA polymerase (RNAP) for a small subset of the library has been obtained. The most active compounds have been shown to exhibit binding at known binding sites of streptolydigin and myxopyronin at UPPS and RNAP. These systems offer potential for their antibacterial activity, and further demonstrate the use of natural products as biologically validated starting points for drug discovery.

Michael addition of amides to α,β-unsaturated esters efficiently proceed in the presence of K2CO3 and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a phase-transfer catalyst under microwave irradiation to afford N-alkylated amides in high yields and short reaction times.

The photochemical reactions of alkoxychromium (Fischer) carbenes and sulfilimines lead to imidates in fair to excellent yields.Aromatic, heteroaromatic, and alkylsulfilimines, the latter bearing functional groups such as cyano, sulfone, ether, ester, and dioxolane groups, gave the corresponding imidates in good to excellent yield.However, acyl- and sulfonyl-substituted sulfilimines did not react with chromium carbenes, except for sulfilimines bearing ethoxycarbonyl and phthalimidylamino groups.A variety of differently substituted chromium carbene complexes bearing alkyl, cycloalkyl, styryl, allyl, and alkynyl groups attached either at the carbene carbon or at the oxygen also gave imidates in good yields.For α,β-unsaturated carbenes, the exclusive 1,2-addition of the sulfilimines nitrogen was observed at room temperature, in contrast to the behavior of other nitrogen nucleophiles which are reported to add in 1,4-fashion under these reaction conditions.In turn, optically active imidates of the type ArN=C(OR*)Me can be prepared efficiently by utilizing the corresponding chiral alkoxy group on the carbene moiety.The reactions above also occur in the dark but reaction times are considerably longer.N-Halosulfilimines reacted with alkoxychromium carbenes to yield N-acylsulfilimines instead of the expected N-haloimidates.Based upon a set of thermal and photochemical reactions between N-haloimidates and diphenyl sulfide in the absence of chromium complexes, the complex (CO)5CrNCMe is proposed to be responsible for this novel reaction of N-haloimidates and diphenyl sulfide.
