Isoxazoles also form the basis for a number of drugs, [9] including the COX-2 inhibitor valdecoxib and a neurotransmitter agonist AMPA. A derivative, furoxan , is a nitric oxide donor. An isoxazolyl group is found in many beta-lactamase-resistant antibiotics , such as cloxacillin , dicloxacillin and flucloxacillin .
Phenylboronic acid or benzeneboronic acid, abbreviated as PhB(OH) 2 where Ph is the phenyl group C 6 H 5 - and B(OH) 2 is a boronic acid containing a phenyl substituent and two hydroxyl groups attached to boron. Phenylboronic acid is a white powder and is commonly used in organic synthesis.
Carbamic acid is a planar molecule. [3]The H 2 N− group of carbamic acid, unlike that of most amines, cannot be protonated to an ammonium group H 3 N + −.The zwitterionic form H 3 N + −COO − is very unstable and promptly decomposes into ammonia and carbon dioxide, [6] yet there is a report of its detection in ices irradiated with high-energy protons.
Boronic acids are known to bind to active site serines and are part of inhibitors for porcine pancreatic lipase, [2] subtilisin [3] and the protease Kex2. [4] Furthermore, boronic acid derivatives constitute a class of inhibitors for human acyl-protein thioesterase 1 and 2, which are cancer drug targets within the Ras cycle. [5]
In fact, the addition of acid (H+) or hydroxide (OH-) acts to attenuate protodeboronation by shifting the speciation away from the reactive zwitterion. It is important to note that not all basic heteroaromatic boronic acids are reactive through a zwitterionic intermediate. Scheme for the speciation of 2-pyridine boronic acid in aqueous solution
Organotrifluoroborates are tolerant of air and moisture [1] and are easy to handle and purify. [2] They are often used in organic synthesis as alternatives to boronic acids (RB(OH) 2 ), boronate esters (RB(OR′) 2 ), and organoboranes (R 3 B), particularly for Suzuki-Miyaura coupling .
Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, sometimes referred to as "BCF", is the chemical compound (C 6 F 5) 3 B.It is a white, volatile solid. The molecule consists of three pentafluorophenyl groups attached in a "paddle-wheel" manner to a central boron atom; the BC 3 core is planar.
Trifluoroacetic acid is a widely employed acid, used for example in the synthesis of peptides.Its esters are useful in analytical chemistry. Longer-chain perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids, e.g. with five to nine carbons, are useful fluorosurfactants and emulsifiers used in the production of polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon) and related fluoropolymers.
