An improved procedure for the synthesis of terminal and internal alkynes from 10-undecenoic acid
Narasimhan,Mohan,Palani
, p. 1941 - 1949 (1991)
A remarkable solvent preference for dehydrobromination to yield 10-Undecynoic acid (5) and 9-Undecynoic acid (6) is observed in the case of 10,11-dibromoundecanoic acid (1). Thus, 10-Undecenoic acid can be easily and quantitatively converted to 6 in PEG-400, while 5 is produced in PEG-200. 5 can also be obtained in non-polar solvents with PEG-200/400 as a phase transfer catalyst.
Formation of gel and fibrous microstructures by 1-alkyne amphiphiles bearing L-serine headgroup in organic solvents
Ragunathan, Kaliappa G.,Bhattacharya, Santanu
, p. 13 - 23 (1995)
The study of amphiphiles that form non-spheroidal, and other assemblies, upon solvation is the key to understanding the relationship between molecular structure and supramolecular morphology. With this aim in mind, we have employed L-serine and L-histidine derivatives that are linked via amide bond to hydrophobic chain. L-Serine amphiphiles form gels in CHCl3, CH2Cl2 and CCl4. Microscopic examinations of these gels reveal the coexistence of tubules, helical ribbons, and spheres. On the other hand, they produce only spherical structures and rods when dispersed in aqueous media (phosphate buffer). In contrast, amphiphiles based on the L-histidine group, neither formed any gel nor produced any microstructures in non-aqueous solvents like CHCl3, but produced spherical structures and helical rods in water. We also examined the effect of introducing 1-yne or 1-ene moieties into the hydrocarbon chain of such amphiphiles. These moieties, when present in the hydrophobic segment, do not perturb the supramolecular assembly features of the respective serine amphiphiles. Actually, 1-yne moiety, when present in the hydrophobic portion of the amphiphiles, gives characteristic UV-fine structures upon aggregation in water and might be used as a non-invasive marker for probing critical aggregate concentration.
Synthesis and functionalization of vinylsulfide and ketone-containing aliphatic copolyesters from fatty acids

, p. 290 - 298 (2015)
A series of novel aliphatic copolyesters bearing vinylsulfide and ketone functional groups were synthesized via lipase catalyzed polycondensation of vegetable oil derivatives. The vinylsulfide-containing hydroxyacid (VSHA) from 10-undecenoic fatty acid and the ketone-containing hydroxyester (KHE) from methyl oleate were used to obtain random copolymers and further sequential and single-step strategies involving the reactions with thiol and oxyamine were investigated. Good agreement between product and feed stoichiometries was achieved in both reactions for sequential modification, and the order of addition seems not to be a significant parameter. One pot functionalization allows for the single step modification, but not quantitative reactions were achieved.
Iron-Catalyzed Aerobic Oxidation of Alcohols: Lower Cost and Improved Selectivity
Jiang, Xingguo,Liu, Jinxian,Ma, Shengming
, p. 825 - 835 (2019/05/02)
An aerobic oxidation reaction of alcohols toward aldehydes or ketones using catalytic amounts of Fe(NO3)3·9H2O, 4-OH-TEMPO, and NaCl has been developed. Compared with the former catalytic system with TEMPO developed in this group, the new protocol using 4-OH-TEMPO, which is much cheaper on an industrial scale, accomplished the transformation with a higher selectivity, especially for aliphatic alcohols toward aldehydes. α,β-Unsaturated alkynals or alkynones can be efficiently synthesized from propargyl alcohols, which has been much less studied in the literature.

An aerobic oxidation of aldehydes towards carboxylic acids in MeCN using 1 atm of pure oxygen or oxygen in air as the oxidant and a catalytic amount of single component catalyst, Fe(NO3)3·9H2O, has been developed. Carboxylic acids with different synthetically useful functional groups were obtained at room temperature. Two mechanistic pathways have been proposed based on isotopic labeling, NMR monitoring, and control experiments. The practicality of this reaction has been demonstrated by conducting several 50 mmol-scale reactions using pure oxygen or an air-flow of ~30 mL/min.
Configurational Assignment of ‘Cryptochiral’ 10-Hydroxystearic Acid Through an Asymmetric Catalytic Synthesis
Brunner, Andreas,Hintermann, Lukas
, p. 928 - 943 (2016/12/09)
An asymmetric catalytic total synthesis of (S)-10-hydroxystearic acid (1) for comparison of its absolute configuration to that of samples obtained by fermentative hydration of oleic acid is reported. The synthesis involves two catalytic key-steps, namely Ru-catalyzed anti-Markovnikov hydration of 9-decynoic acid (7) to 10-oxodecanoic acid (5), followed by titanium-mediated asymmetric catalytic addition of dioctylzinc (25) to 5 in presence of the chiral ligand N,N’-((1R,2R)-cyclohexane-1,2-diyl)bis(1,1,1-trifluoromethanesulfonamide) (6). The synthesis is short and efficient and avoids use of protecting groups. Ozonolysis of 10-undecynoic acid (9) to 5 provides an alternative entry point into the synthetic route. The double dehydrobromination of (ω,ω-1)-dibromoalkanoic acids to ω-alkynoic acids under a variety of conditions was investigated with 10,11-dibromoundecanoic acid (11) as model substrate and using qNMR to quantify all reaction products. The synthetic approaches presented here have the potential to be generalized to the asymmetric catalytic synthesis of a variety of n-hydroxy-fatty acids.

Lysine acetyltransferase 8 (KAT8) is a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) responsible for acetylating lysine 16 on histone H4 (H4K16) and plays a role in cell cycle progression as well as acetylation of the tumor suppressor protein p53. Further studies on its biological function and drug discovery initiatives will benefit from the development of small molecule inhibitors for this enzyme. As a first step towards this aim we investigated the enzyme kinetics of this bi-substrate enzyme. The kinetic experiments indicate a ping-pong mechanism in which the enzyme binds Ac-CoA first, followed by binding of the histone substrate. This mechanism is supported by affinity measurements of both substrates using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). Using this information, the KAT8 inhibition of a focused compound collection around the non-selective HAT inhibitor anacardic acid has been investigated. Kinetic studies with anacardic acid were performed, based on which a model for the catalytic activity of KAT8 and the inhibitory action of anacardic acid (AA) was proposed. This enabled the calculation of the inhibition constant Ki of anacardic acid derivatives using an adaptation of the Cheng-Prusoff equation. The results described in this study give insight into the catalytic mechanism of KAT8 and present the first well-characterized small-molecule inhibitors for this HAT.

Polyacetylenic lipids, radiation-sensitive compositions, photographic elements and processes relating to same
-
, (2008/06/13)
A photopolymerizable monomer comprising a lipid having at least one hydrophobic acyl chain containing at least two conjugated acetylenic linkages is useful in preparing radiation-sensitive compositions and photographic elements comprising a plurality of liposomes. Further, processes for photopolymerizing the radiation-sensitive compositions and for forming an image in the photographic elements comprise exposing the lipid to radiation, heating the lipid to a temperature equal to or above a first transition temperature of the lipid to render it insensitive to further exposure, and optionally cooling the lipid to a temperature equal to or below a seocnd phase transition temperature of the lipid to render it again sensitive to further exposure. The monomeric lipids, when photopolymerized, form polymeric lipids exhibiting decreased solubility and liposome wall permeability as compared to the unpolymerized monomeric lipids.
