2-(Het)aryl-N-phosphorylpyrrolidines via Cyclization of Phosphorus Acid Amides: A Regioselective Approach
© 2020 Wiley-VCH GmbH A first successful synthesis of 2-(het)aryl-N-phosphorylpyrrolidines is reported starting from readily available N-(4,4-diethoxybutyl)amides of P(V) acids. A range of phenols and hydroxyl-substituted O-heterocycles may be employed into the reaction furnishing N-phosphorylated 2-(het)arylpyrrolidines with up to 90 % yield. The developed method permits a presence of sensitive to phosphorylation hydroxy groups and provides the easy and regioselective entry to target compounds
Effect of White Phosphorus on the Survival, Cellular Morphology, and Proteome of Aspergillus niger
© 2020, Pleiades Publishing, Inc. Abstract: In the present study, the mechanisms of Aspergillus niger AM1 and AM2 resistance to white phosphorus were studied. It was shown that the presence of white phosphorus (P4) at a concentration of 0.25% in the medium had a marginal impact on the ratio of living to dead cells during fungal cultivation, which indicates a high resistance of the strains to P4. Observations made with electron microscopy showed an increase in the thickness of the fungal cell wall, which is a barrier to the penetration of white phosphorus. MALDI results revealed the biosynthesis of new protein enzymes that could potentially participate in the neutralization of white phosphorus. In addition, white phosphorus caused activation of the metabolism, accompanied by an increase in the number of mitochondria in the cells
