PhzG is a flavin-dependent oxidase that is believed to play a role in phenazine antibiotic synthesis in various bacteria, including Pseudomonas. Phenazines are chorismic acid derivatives that provide the producing organisms, including the opportunistic pathogen P. aeruginosa, with a competitive growth advantage. Here, the crystal structures of PhzG from both P. aeruginosa and P. fluorescens sol...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(9)H(8)N(2)O(2), contains two mol-ecules. In the crystal structure, both mol-ecules form inversion dimers via pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and a C-H⋯O inter-ation is also seen.

Carboxylic acid derivatives are the most widely occurring of all molecules, both in laboratory chemistry and in biological pathways. Specifically, acid derivatives are compounds in which the hydroxyl group of the carboxylic acid has been replaced by another acyl substituent that can act as a leaving group in nucleophilic acyl substitutions. These compounds can be acid halides, acid anhydrides, ...

A newsynthetic route has been developed for the total synthesis of ozenoxacin. In this avoided toxic heavy metals and synthesised key intermediate_7-bromo-1-cyclopropyl-8-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid by simply insertion Cyclopropyl amine into 4-oxo-4H-chromene-3-carboxylic intermediate, Then intermediate carboxylic acidundergoesSuzuki coupling with boronated ester deacety...
