- Description: The Cs2CO3-catalysed condensation of 5-bromo-7-azabenzimidazole with a series of bromomethyl ketones has afforded a small library of ten, novel 5-bromo-1-[(N-substututed-carbamoyl)methyl]-7-azabenzimidazoles. Rotamerism in the products, as evidenced by the splitting of 1H- and 13C-NMR signals, is attributed to hindered internal rotation about the amide N-C(=O) bond, and has been explored using dynamic NMR (DNMR) analysis and computational methods at the GIAO B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,p) level of theory. Coalescence temperatures have been obtained for representative examples and rotational barriers determined experimentally and theoretically. A detailed theoretical analysis has been undertaken to explore conformations which may contribute to the relative populations of the s-cis and s-trans rotamers. The products have also been screened for cytotoxicity and activity against two parasitic protozoan strains (Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma brucei).

- Description: A six-step synthetic pathway has been established to access a series of racemic 2,3-dihydroxy-3-(Nsubstituted carbamoyl)propylphosphonic acid derivatives, designed to contain structural features common to both the natural substrate 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate (DOXP) of the Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) DXR enzyme and its known inhibitor, fosmidomycin. Positive STD-NMR and in silico docking data obtained for some of the compounds indicate their capacity to bind to the analogous E.coli DXR enzyme.

- Description: Aza-Michael reactions of a pyridine-3-carbaldehyde-derived Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) adduct with various amines have afforded a series of 10 diastereomeric products, stereochemical analysis of which has been achieved using a combination of NMR (1D, 2D and NOESY) and computer modelling methods.

- Description: A series of N-benzylated phosphoramidate esters, containing a 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl Mg2+-chelating group, has been synthesised in five steps as analogues of fosmidomycin, a Plasmodium falciparum 1-deoxy-1-D-xylulose-5- phosphate reductoisomerase (PfDXR) inhibitor. The 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl group effectively replaces the Mg2+- chelating hydroxamic acid group in fosmidomycin. The compounds showed very encouraging anti-parasitic activity with IC50 values of 5.6–16.4 µM against Plasmodium falciparum parasites and IC50 values of 5.2 – 10.2 µM against Trypanosoma brucei brucei (T.b.brucei). Data obtained from in silico docking of the ligands in the PfDXR receptor cavity (3AU9)5 support their potential as PfDXR inhibitors.

- Description: Attempted repetition of a reported synthesis of fenchene from fenchol has afforded, in high overall yield, a mixture shown by spectroscopic and elemental analysis to comprise a pair of discrete rotameric systems of a novel 2-endo-2′-endo-difenchyl sulfite ester. The kinetics of the formation of these dimeric rotameric systems (I and II) has been explored experimentally, using 1H NMR spectroscopic analysis, and theoretically at molecular and quantum mechanical levels. Construction of a theoretical model has permitted calculation of rate constants for each of the steps, while modelling of the transition state complexes corresponding to the rate-determining steps for the formation of the rotameric systems I and II has revealed their independent access to further sets of interconverting rotamers.

- Description: 1H NMR-based kinetic studies have revealed the latent mechanistic complexity of deceptively simple hydrochloric acid-catalyzed reactions of salicylaldehyde-derived Baylis–Hillman adducts. Reactions conducted at 0 °C afforded 2-(chloromethyl)cinnamic acid derivatives as the major products and the corresponding 3-(chloromethyl)coumarin derivatives as the minor products. In reactions conducted in refluxing acetic acid, however, the 3-(chloromethyl)coumarin derivatives are the sole products. Variable-temperature 1H NMR analysis permitted the determination of the rate constants and kinetic parameters involved in the pseudo-first-order formation of (Z)-2-(chloromethyl)-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid. The kinetic data clearly preclude the operation of classical kinetic versus thermodynamic control and indicate the operation of three independent reaction pathways. Theoretical studies of these pathways undertaken at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level permitted rationalization of the experimental data and provided insights into the possible mechanism of the enzymic E–Z isomerization and cyclization of (E)-cinnamic acid analogues to afford coumarins.

- Description: The screening was conducted using multi-well plates which are suited for HeLa cells in the log phase of growth with final cell density > 10 cells/cm. Each experiment normally includes a blank control, containing medium without the cells.28,45 Non-contaminated HeLa cells (6.57 x 105 cells per well) in media were allowed to grow in the incubator under an atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 0C for 24 h. To each well was dispensed 200 µL of HeLa culture, containing 6.57 x 105 cells under LabEAir laminar flow hood (Vivid Air, South Africa); 20 µL of resazurin dye (Sigma TOX-8) and test compound (50 µL) were added, which were then incubated in the presence of 5% CO2 at 37 0C for 24 hours in a shaker, to enhance the distribution of the dye. The absorbance of each well was measured with Bio-tek Power Wave X fluorometer (Beijing, China), and increases in fluorescence was monitored at a wavelength of 590 nm, using an excitation wavelength of 560 nm.

- Description: DOXP-reductoisomerase (DXR) is a validated target for the development of antimalarial drugs to address the increase in resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Series of aryl- and heteroarylcarbamoylphosphonic acids, their diethyl esters and disodium salts have been prepared as analogues of the potent DXR inhibitor fosmidomycin. The effects of the carboxamide N-substituents and the length of the methylene linker have been explored using in silico docking studies, saturation transfer difference NMR spectroscopy and enzyme inhibition assays using both EcDXR and PfDXR. These studies indicate an optimal linker length of two methylene units and have confirmed the importance of an additional binding pocket in the PfDXR active site. Insights into the constraints of the PfDXR binding site provide additional scope for the rational design of DXR inhibitors with increased ligand–receptor interactions.

Changing the solvent system has been shown topermit the chemoselective isolation of either of the isomeric camphenes.
