2-Cyclohexylacetonitrile (cas: 4435-14-7) belongs to nitriles. Nitriles are polar, as indicated by high dipole moments. As liquids, they have high relative permittivities, often in the 30s. In conventional organic reductions, nitrile is reduced by treatment with lithium aluminium hydride to the amine. Reduction to the imine followed by hydrolysis to the aldehyde takes place in the Stephen aldehyde synthesis, which uses stannous chloride in acid.Reference of 4435-14-7

A Boron-Nitrogen Double Transborylation Strategy for Borane-Catalyzed Hydroboration of Nitriles was written by Pradhan, Subham;Sankar, Raman Vijaya;Gunanathan, Chidambaram. And the article was included in Journal of Organic Chemistry in 2022.Reference of 4435-14-7 This article mentions the following:

Organoborane-catalyzed hydroboration of nitriles provides N,N-diborylamines, which act as efficient synthons for the synthesis of primary amines and secondary amides. Known nitrile hydroboration methods are dominated by metal catalysis. Simple and metal-free hydroboration of nitriles using diborane [H-B-9-BBN]2 as a catalyst and pinacolborane as a turnover reagent is reported. The reaction of monomeric H-B-9-BBN with nitriles leads to the hydrido-bridged diborylimine intermediate; a subsequent sequential double hydroboration-transborylation pathway involving B-N/B-H σ bond metathesis is proposed. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 2-Cyclohexylacetonitrile (cas: 4435-14-7Reference of 4435-14-7).

Electronic effects of para-substitution on acetophenones in the reaction of rat liver 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase was written by Uwai, Koji;Konno, Noboru;Yasuta, Yuka;Takeshita, Mitsuhiro. And the article was included in Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry in 2008.Formula: C9H9NO This article mentions the following:

Stereoselective reductive metabolism of various p-substituted acetophenone derivatives was studied using isolated rat liver 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3α-HSD). Kinetic experiments were performed and analyzed by measuring the products by HPLC using a chiral column. The results demonstrated that the presence of an electron-withdrawing substituent on the benzene ring plays an important role in determining the reduction rate in the syntheses of various (S)-alcs. from their corresponding carbonyl compounds A plot of log {(Vmax/Km)X/(Vmax/Km)H} vs. the substituent parameter (π, σpara, Es) shows an increasing rate mainly for electron-withdrawing substituents, with a correlation coefficient (r2) of 0.97 which was obtained for triplicate data that were significant at the p < 0.0001 level. With this in mind, new drugs can be designed that exploit this reduction pathway by introducing an electron-withdrawing group adjacent to the reduction site when a reduction reaction is desired, or by adding an electron-donating group when minimization of the reduction pathway is desired. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (R)-4-(1-Hydroxyethyl)benzonitrile (cas: 101219-69-6Formula: C9H9NO).

New drugs against visceral leishmaniasis with mechanisms of action differing from existing treatments and with adequate cost, stability, and properties are urgently needed. No antitubulin drug is currently in the clinic against Leishmania infantum, the causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis in the Mediterranean area. We have designed and synthesized a focused library of 350 compounds against the Leishmania tubulin based on the structure-activity relationship (SAR) and sequence differences between host and parasite. The compounds synthesized are accessible, stable, and appropriately soluble in water. We assayed the library against Leishmania promastigotes, axenic, and intracellular amastigotes and found 0, 8, and 16 active compounds, resp., with a high success rate against intracellular amastigotes of over 10%, not including the cytotoxic compounds Five compounds have a similar or better potency than the clin. used miltefosine. 14 compounds showed a host-dependent mechanism of action that might be advantageous as it may render them less susceptible to the development of drug resistance. The active compounds cluster in five chem. classes that provide structure-activity relationships for further hit improvement and facilitate series development. Mol. docking is consistent with the proposed mechanism of action, supported by the observed structure-activity relationships, and suggests a potential extension to other Leishmania species due to sequence similarities. A new family of diarylsulfonamides designed against the parasite tubulins is active against Leishmania infantum and represents a new class of potential drugs with favorable cost, stability, and aqueous solubility for the treatment of visceral leishmaniasis (VL). These results could be extended to other clin. relevant species of Leishmania spp. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 3-Amino-4-methoxybenzonitrile (cas: 60979-25-1Recommanded Product: 60979-25-1).

And the article was included in International Journal of Mass Spectrometry in 2015.Category: nitriles-buliding-blocks This article mentions the following:

The initial discovery that a heated inlet tube of a mass spectrometer is an ionization source producing ions from volatile, nonvolatile, small, and large mols. with charge states similar to electrospray ionization has been advanced to ionization requiring only the vacuum inherent with a mass spectrometer and a suitable matrix. This spontaneous ionization method was first applicable with the matrix 3-nitrobenzonitrile. Here we report that over 40 compounds have now been discovered that spontaneously convert mols. to gas-phase ions when exposed to sub-atm. pressure, some with remarkable sensitivity (10 fmol of protein insulin). The commonality of all matrixes is the ability to sublime, preferably near room temperature, through exposure to vacuum, and the ability to create charge separation under these conditions. The effect of vacuum, airflow, temperature (-80 to +150 °C) and pH (1-9) on the effectiveness of these newly discovered matrixes to ionize peptides and proteins is presented. Compounds with and without acidic hydrogen atoms act as matrixes and ionize specific compound classes. The new matrixes extend applications from peptides, proteins and drugs to compound classes without basic functionality such as lipids and synthetic polymers in the neg. and pos. modes. Mass resolution and ion mobility spectrometry aspects are also discussed.

And the article was included in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry in 1990.Synthetic Route of C5H2N2O2S This article mentions the following:

The leukotrienes, metabolites of arachidonic acid produced through the action of the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase, are important mediators of immediate hypersensitivity and inflammation. Among the variety of diseases in which the leukotrienes may play a symptomatic or causative role is the dermatol. condition psoriasis, a chronic proliferative disease of the skin. This study reports the synthesis and comparative biol. activities of various ortho-substituted phenols including 4-methoxyphenols, 6-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzopyrans, 2,3-dihydro-5-benzofuranols, and 5-benzofuranols. The phenols prepared in this study were evaluated for their ability to inhibit the production of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in isolated human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) and to inhibit a topical inflammatory response in the topical mouse ear (TME) model. In the former case, when the log IC50 was plotted vs. the log of the octanol/water partition coefficient (log P), to eliminate the effect of lipophilicity, the 2,3-dihydro-5-benzofuranol ring system was more potent than the other ring systems examined throughout the range of partition coefficients studied. The ability to inhibit leukotriene production in vitro in human PMNs can be rationalized on the basis of a model that suggests that the observed inhibition is dependent on the kinetic ability of the inhibitor to reduce a radical species and on the fraction of inhibitor that is partitioned into the cell membrane. While the in vivo antiinflammatory activity as measured by the TME did not correlate with the in vitro data, it was felt that the TME represented a valuable measure of the ability of a compound to penetrate the skin to the site of an ongoing inflammatory response. The title compound I was chosen for further development.

The reaction of the benzotriazole N-oxyl radical (BTNO) with a series of 4-X-N,N-dimethylanilines (X = CN, CF3, CO2CH2CH3, CH3, OC6H5, OCH3) has been investigated in CH3CN. Product anal. shows that the radical, 4-X-C6H4N(CH3)CH2·, is first formed, which can lead to the N-demethylated product or the product of coupling with BTNO. Reaction rates were found to increase significantly by increasing the electron-donating power of the aryl substituents (ρ+ = -3.8). With electron-donating substituents (X = CH3, OC6H5, OCH3), no intermol. deuterium kinetic isotope effect (DKIE) and a substantial intramol. DKIE are observed With electron-withdrawing substituents (X = CN, CF3, CO2CH2CH3), substantial values of both intermol. and intramol. DKIEs are observed These results can be interpreted on the basis of an electron-transfer mechanism from the N,N-dimethylanilines to the BTNO radical followed by deprotonation of the anilinium radical cation (ET-PT mechanism). By applying the Marcus equation to the kinetic data for X = CH3, OC6H5, OCH3 (rate-determining ET), a reorganization energy for the ET reaction was determined (λBTNO/DMA = 32.1 kcal mol-1). From the self-exchange reorganization energy for the BTNO/BTNO couple, a self-exchange reorganization energy value of 31.9 kcal mol-1 was calculated for the DMA·1/DMA couple.
