Novel Halolactones Derived from Vanillin: Design, Synthesis, Structural Characterization, and Evaluation of Antiproliferative and Hemolytic Activities [PDF]
A series of novel γ-halo-δ-lactones and δ-halo-γ-lactones bearing a phenolic ring at the β-position were synthesized from vanillin. The divergent seven-step synthetic route commenced with the benzyl protection of the hydroxy group of the starting ...

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel N-α-haloacylated homoserine lactones as quorum sensing modulators [PDF]
Novel N-α-haloacylated homoserine lactones, in which a halogen atom was introduced at the α-position of the carbonyl function of the N-acyl chain, have been studied as quorum sensing (QS) modulators and compared with a library of natural N-acylated ...

Microbial Reduction of Ketopantoyl Lactone to Pantoyl Lactone [PDF]
The results of a microbial survey study have shown that the ability to reduce added ketopantoic acid (or ketopantoyl lactone) and accumulate pantoic acid (or pantoyl lactone) in the growth medium is widespread among diverse fungi. The reductions generally proceeded with less than full stereoselectivity.

Synthesis and analysis of stable isotope-labelled N-acyl homoserine lactones [PDF]
Aliphatic aldehydes were deuterated at the alpha-position via a base-catalyzed exchange reaction with D2O. These deuterated building blocks were used for the synthesis of labelled analogues of quorum sensing signal molecules belonging to the three major ...

Synthesis of Spiroisoxazolines by 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition
The cycloaddition of the chiral nitrile oxide 1 to 1-R-substituted 3,3-methylene-5,5-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidinones 2 (where R is H, n-butyl-, 1,1-dimethylethoxycarbonyl-, 1-methylethenyl- and acetyl-) proceeds regioselectively under the formation of ...
