Vinyl bromides undergo the Heck reaction, which involves C-C coupling with alkene to give substituted alkenes. 70-23-5, formula is C5H7BrO3, Name is Ethyl 3-bromo-2-oxopropanoate. Methyl bromide is a precursor in the manufacture of several chemicals and is employed as a soil sterilant, mainly for seed production. Name: Ethyl 3-bromo-2-oxopropanoate.
Wei, Chengqian;Huang, Junjie;Luo, Yuqin;Wang, Shaobo;Wu, Sikai;Xing, Zhifu;Chen, Jixiang research published 《 Novel amide derivatives containing an imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine moiety: Design, synthesis as potential nematicidal and antibacterial agents》, the research content is summarized as follows. To discover new nematicides I (n = 1, 2, 3; R = Et, iso-Pr, 4-nitrobenzyl, etc.) a series of novel amide derivatives containing an imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine moeity I were designed and synthesized. Among the title compounds, compounds I (n = 1; R = Pr and n = 3; R = n-decyl (III)) exhibited good nematicidal activities against Aphelenchoides besseyi (rice white-tip nematode), with LC50 values against of 27.3 and 35.9 mg/L, resp., which were superior to that of fosthiazate (45.4 mg/L). Meanwhile, the LC50 value of compound III against Caenorhabditis elegans was 5.7 mg/L, which was superior to that of fosthiazate (77.2 mg/L). Compound III not only binds well to acetylcholinesterase (AChE) of nematodes, but also has a good inhibitory activity against AChE. Thus, AChE may be a potential target of compound III against nematodes. Unexpectedly, compound I (n = 1; R = chloromethyl (IV)) exhibited excellent antibacterial activities with EC50 values of 1.2 and 3.1 mg/L against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc), resp., which were superior to those of bismerthiazol (68.6 and 77.1 mg/L) and thiodiazole copper (80.8 and 96.6 mg/L). The curative and protective activities of compound IV against bacterial leaf blight were 37.0% and 36.8% at 50 mg/L, resp., which were higher than those of thiodiazole copper (16.1% and 15.5%). In addition, compound IV may inhibit the growth of Xoo by affecting the production of cell membranes and extracellular polysaccharides. Amide derivatives containing an imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine moeity Ican be used as good lead-structures to discover new nematicidal and antibacterial agents in the future.
Name: Ethyl 3-bromo-2-oxopropanoate, Ethyl bromopyruvate molecular formula is C5H7BrO3 and its molecular weight is 195.01 g/mol. The purity is usually 95%.
Ethyl bromopyruvate is used in a synthesis of thioxothiazolidines from carbon disulfide and primary amines.
Ethyl bromopyruvate is a chemical inhibitor that inhibits the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase, which is responsible for the conversion of pyruvic acid to acetyl-CoA. This inhibition leads to a decrease in ATP levels and can cause metabolic disorders. Ethyl bromopyruvate is used as an anthelmintic drug and in asymmetric synthesis. It is also used in the synthesis of thiostrepton, an antibiotic that has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae., 70-23-5.
