ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance represents a significant global health threat, prompting the exploration of alternative therapeutic strategies. peptides (AMPs) and lipopeptides are promising candidates due to their unique ability disrupt bacterial cell membranes through mechanisms distinct from conventional antibiotics. These typically enhanced by motifs involving cationic amino acids, positive charge, aromatic residues. Additionally, conjugation acyl chains N‐terminus AMPs has been shown...

Abstract Mono‐ and dihomoallylamines serve as convenient precursors for the preparation of 6‐substituted piperidine‐2,4‐diones. This transformation is based, on one hand, a simple well‐known halocyclocarbamation reaction proceeding by addition source cationic halogen to N ‐Boc‐protected homoallylamines and, other, new enolate‐isocyanate rearrangement that proceeds action strong bases bromocyclocarbamates. A set racemic were prepared allylboration nitriles or primary amides with...
