The Curtius Rearrangement: Applications in Modern Drug Discovery and Medicinal Chemistry. [PDF]
AbstractThe Curtius rearrangement is the thermal decomposition of an acyl azide derived from carboxylic acid to produce an isocyanate as the initial product. The isocyanate can undergo further reactions to provide amines and their derivatives. Due to its tolerance for a large variety of functional groups and complete retention of stereochemistry during

Stereospecificity of the Curtius rearrangement [PDF]
Jones and Mason claimed a number of years ago (1) that rearrangement of cis-olefinic acyl azides gave trans-olefinic isocyanates. However, several other workers have found that rearrangement of an acyl azide group attached to an optically active carbon gives configurationally identical products, a discovery which apparently conflicts with Jones and ...

Novel Inhibitors of Acetyl- and Butyrylcholinesterase Derived from Benzohydrazides: Synthesis, Evaluation and Docking Study [PDF]
On the basis of previous reports, novel 2-benzoylhydrazine-1-carboxamides were designed as potential inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Inhibitors of these enzymes have many clinical applications.

N,N′-Dibenzylethylenediammonium dichloride [PDF]
The isolation and crystalline structure of N,N′-dibenzylethylenediammonium dichloride, C16H22N22+·2Cl−, is reported. This was obtained as an unintended product of an attempted Curtius rearrangement that involved benzylamine as one of the reagents and 1,2-
