Fifteen novel β-lactams bearing the N-ethyl tert-butyl carbamate group 5a-o and fifteen N-(2-aminoethyl) β-lactams 6a-o were synthesized by the ketene-imine [2+2] cycloaddition reaction (Staudinger ). The cycloaddition reaction was found to be totally diastereoselective leading exclusively to the formation of the cis-β-lactam derivatives. These newly synthesized β-lactams were evaluated for the...

background: in order to select a better antibiotic choice for treatment of pseudomonas aeruginosa infections, this study was conducted to determine the frequency of resistance to some antipseudomonal β-lactams in p. aeruginosa isolates from patients in tehran, iran. in addition, the relation between presence of genes known to be responsible for resistance to β-lactams (ampc, mexc1,2,and mexc3,4...

synthesis of some new monocyclic β-lactams containing a quaternary carbon center via a [2+2]cycloaddition reaction is described. the reaction of achiral diphenyl ketene with chiral aldimines derivedfrom chiral 2, 3, 4, 6-tetra-o-acetyl-β-d-galactopyranosylamine, 2, 3, 4, 6-tetra-o-acetyl-β-dglucopyranosylamine and different benzaldehydes resulted in the formation of β-lactams as singlediastereo...

β-Lactams are pharmacologically important compounds because of their various biological uses, including antibiotic and so on. β-Lactams were synthesized from benzylidene-inden derivatives and acetoxyacetyl chloride. The inhibitory effect of these compounds was examined for human carbonic anhydrase I and II (hCA I, and II) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE). The results reveal that β-lactams are in...

A new strategy for catalytic enantioselective C-acylation to generate α-quaternary-substituted lactams is reported. Ni-catalyzed three-component coupling of lactam enolates, benzonitriles, and aryl halides produces β-imino lactams that then afford β-keto lactams by acid hydrolysis. Use of a readily available Mandyphos-type ligand and addition of LiBr enable the construction of quaternary stereo...

The purpose of this study was to compare the relative efficacy and safety of different antibiotic drugs and recommend superior regimens in the treatment of bronchitis. With respect to the antibiotic comparisons against quinolones in terms of intention-to-treat patients, we concluded that quinolones had advantages over placebo, β-lactams, sulfonamides, and double β-lactams. Concerning treatment ...

in this paper the synthesis of some new polyaromatic monocyclic β-lactams has been reported. these cycloadducts have been synthesized by the [2+2] ketene-imine cycloaddition reaction known as the staudinger reaction. all of the products have been fully characterized by ir, 1h-nmr, 13c-nmr, mass spectroscopy and elemental analyses. the x-ray crystal structure of a cis β-lactam has been also pres...

Currently available anticancer drugs are cytotoxic to normal as well as to neoplastic cells, therefore the synthesis of β-lactams as new and novel anticancer agents is extremely significant. We previously developed synthetic methods for the preparation of β-lactams and anticancer agents resulting from polyaromatic amines. There have also been reports on the synthesis and biological evaluation o...
