摘要
Thiourea catalysts accelerate aminolysis of N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs), molecules integral to bacterial quorum sensing. The catalysts afford rate enhancement of up to 10 times the control in CD3CN. Mild catalysis in other polar aprotic solvents is still observed, while the activity is attenuated in polar protic solvents.
