Abstract
Monoaminooxidases (MAOs) are important targets for drugs used in the treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders and particularly on Parkinson's Disease (PD). Compounds containing a trans-stilbenoid skeleton have demonstrated good selective and reversible MAO-B inhibition. Here, twenty-two (Z)-3-benzylidenephthalides (benzalphthalides, BPHs) displaying a trans-stilbenoid skeleton have been synthesised and evaluated as inhibitors of the MAO-A and MAO-B isoforms. Some BPHs have selectively inhibited MAO-B, with IC50 values ranging from sub-nM to μM. The most potent compound with IC50 = 0.6 nM was the 3',4'-dichloro-BPH 16, which showed highly selective and reversible MAO-B inhibitory activity. Furthermore, the most selective BPHs displayed a significant protection against the apoptosis, and mitochondrial toxic effects induced by 6-hydroxydopamine (6OHDA) on SH-SY5Y cells, used as a cellular model of PD. The results of virtual binding studies on the most potent compounds docked in MAO-B and MAO-A were in agreement with the potencies and selectivity indexes found experimentally. Additionally, related to toxicity risks, drug-likeness and ADME properties, the predictions found for the most relevant BPHs in this research were within those ranges established for drug candidates.

Abstract
The divergent synthesis of isobenzofuranones and isocoumarins was realized from the reaction of 2-alkenyl benzoic acids and mCPBA in the presence of catalytic aryl iodine and (±)-10-camphorsulfonic acid (CSA). The organocatalytic oxidative reaction is assumed to undergo a cascade process involving lactonization, 1,2-aryl migration and elimination enabled by a modified Koser reagent generated in situ.

Abstract
Viruses continue to be a major threat to human health. In the last century, pandemics occurred and resulted in significant mortality and morbidity. Natural products have been largely screened as source of inspiration for new antiviral agents. Within the huge class of plant secondary metabolites, resveratrol-derived stilbenoids present a wide structural diversity and mediate a great number of biological responses relevant for human health. However, whilst the antiviral activity of resveratrol has been extensively studied, little is known about the efficacy of its monomeric and oligomeric derivatives. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the achievements in this field, with particular emphasis on the source, chemical structures and the mechanism of action of resveratrol-derived stilbenoids against the most challenging viruses. The collected results highlight the therapeutic versatility of stilbene-containing compounds and provide a prospective insight into their potential development as antiviral agents.

Abstract
Recent advances in high-throughput, automated techniques combined with the identification of new therapeutic targets in genome sequencing and molecular biology have generated a need for a large collection of diverse heterocyclic scaffolds. This inspires toward the development of novel reaction sequences and linking strategies to generate libraries of diverse simple to complex heterocyclic systems. In this regard, combinatorial chemistry has emerged as an excellent technology platform for the rapid assembly of building blocks to synthesize complex molecular structures with great ease in a few synthetic steps. By means of the implementation of high-throughput screening for the biological evaluation of hits and leads, combinatorial libraries have become important assets in drug discovery and development. In the last two decades, the cyclorelease strategy that minimizes the chemical and tethering implications by releasing the intact desired target molecule in the final step of reaction has attracted much attention. Recently, a particular interest is developing in linking strategies, where loading and cleavage steps contribute to the complexity of the target structure rather than only extraneous manipulations. This review summarises the practical and high-yielding approaches of solid phase combinatorial synthesis for diverse high-purity heterocyclic skeletons of pharmacological importance involving the cycloelimination strategy.

Abstract
The first highly enantioselective arylogous Michael reaction (AMR) of 3-unsubstituted phthalides has been described. This phase-transfer methodology, which uses catalytic amounts of KOH/18-crown-6 catalyst in mesitylene in the presence of N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (BSA), gives access to a broad range of 3-monosubstituted phthalides with high levels of syn diastereoselectivity and good yields, starting from 3-unsubstituted derivatives and diverse α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. The reaction also applies to unactivated 3-alkyl phthalides to afford 3,3-dialkyl derivatives. A plausible mechanism has been suggested. DFT analysis of possible transition states gives a rationale of the high syn diastereoselectivity observed and its correlation with the solvent's dielectric constant.

Selective oxymetalation of terminal alkynes via 6- endo cyclization: mechanistic investigation and application to the efficient synthesis of 4-substituted isocoumarins. Chem Sci 2018; 9:6041-6052.

Abstract
The cyclization of heteroatom-containing alkynes with π acidic metal salts is an attractive method to prepare heterocycles because the starting materials are readily available and the organometallic compounds are useful synthetic intermediates. A new organometallic species in the heterocyclization provides an opportunity to synthesize heterocycles that are difficult to obtain. Herein, we describe a novel cyclic oxymetalation of 2-alkynylbenzoate with indium or gallium salts that proceeds with an unusual regioselectivity to give isocoumarins bearing a carbon-metal bond at the 4-position. This new type of metalated isocoumarin provided 3-unsubstituted isocoumarins that have seldom been investigated despite their important pharmacological properties. Indium and gallium salts showed high performance in the selective 6-endo cyclization of terminal alkynes while boron or other metals such as Al, Au, and Ag caused 5-exo cyclization or decomposition of terminal alkynes, respectively. The metalated isocoumarin and its reaction intermediate were unambiguously identified by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The theoretical calculation of potential energy profiles showed that oxyindation could proceed via 6-endo cyclization under thermodynamic control while previously reported oxyboration would give a 5-membered ring under kinetic control. The investigation of electrostatic potential maps suggested that the differences in the atomic characters of indium, boron and their ligands would contribute to such a regioselective switch. The metalated isocoumarins were applied to organic synthetic reactions. The halogenation of metalated isocoumarins proceeded to afford 4-halogenated isocoumarins bearing various functional groups. The palladium-catalyzed cross coupling of organometallic species with organic halides gave various 4-substituted isocoumarins. A formal total synthesis of oosponol, which exhibits strong antifungal activity, was accomplished.

Abstract
Stilbenes are biologically active metabolites of plants that have the potential to attenuate a broad range of human diseases. Gramistilbenoids are a class of natural products with a stilbene skeleton, isolated from the bamboo orchid ( Arundina graminifolia), and with significant cytotoxicity against cancer cell lines (NB4, A549, SHSY5Y, PC3, and MCF7). These are the first identified naturally occurring diphenylethylenes to possess a hydroxyethyl unit. However, some of these compounds are not abundant in nature, and thus, their synthesis is advantageous. This paper reports the first synthesis of gramistilbenoids A (1), B (2), and C (3), with overall yields of 10, 2, and 8% respectively. These natural products were synthesized using key reactions, such as Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination, Stille coupling, and hydroboration-oxidation.

Abstract
Polynucleotidyl transferases are enzymes involved in several DNA mobility mechanisms in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Some of them such as retroviral integrases are crucial for pathogenous processes and are therefore good candidates for therapeutic approaches. To identify new therapeutic compounds and new tools for investigating the common functional features of these proteins, we addressed the inhibition properties of natural stilbenoids deriving from resveratrol on two models: the HIV-1 integrase and the eukaryote MOS-1 transposase. Two resveratrol dimers, leachianol F and G, were isolated for the first time in Vitis along with fourteen known stilbenoids: E-resveratrol, E-piceid, E-pterostilbene, E-piceatannol, (+)-E-ε-viniferin, E-ε-viniferinglucoside, E-scirpusin A, quadragularin A, ampelopsin A, pallidol, E-miyabenol C, E-vitisin B, hopeaphenol, and isohopeaphenol and were purified from stalks of Vitis vinifera (Vitaceae), and moracin M from stem bark of Milliciaexelsa (Moraceae). These compounds were tested in in vitro and in vivo assays reproducing the activity of both enzymes. Several molecules presented significant inhibition on both systems. Some of the molecules were found to be active against both proteins while others were specific for one of the two models. Comparison of the differential effects of the molecules suggested that the compounds could target specific intermediate nucleocomplexes of the reactions. Additionally E-pterostilbene was found active on the early lentiviral replication steps in lentiviruses transduced cells. Consequently, in addition to representing new original lead compounds for further modelling of new active agents against HIV-1 integrase, these molecules could be good tools for identifying such reaction intermediates in DNA mobility processes.

Abstract
Time-resolved emission spectra of 4-dimethylamino-4'-cyano-stilbene (DMACS) and 3,5,4'-trihydroxy-stilbene (resveratrol, RSV) in propylene glycol and in rigid silica xerogel matrix at 23°C were studied. For the polar molecule DMACS in propylene glycol, a 66nm shift of maximum wavelength of emission spectra was observed within 1ns after excitation, and most of the shift occurred during the first 200ps. For resveratrol in propylene glycol no such a shift was observed. The rigid silica environment eliminates some deactivation pathways and stabilizes spectroscopic properties of both molecules. Spectral properties of nonpolar and high dipole moment molecules in viscous liquids and rigid environments are compared. Results are explained on the basis of intramolecular processes and solute-solvent relaxation, as well.

Abstract
After entry into the target cell, the human immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV) integrates into the host genome and becomes a proviral eukaryotic transcriptional unit. Transcriptional regulation of provirus gene expression is critical for HIV replication. Basal transcription from the integrated HIV promoter is very low in the absence of the HIV transactivator of transcription (Tat) protein and is solely dependent on cellular transcription factors. The 5' terminal region (+1 to +59) of all HIV mRNAs forms an identical stem-bulge-loop structure called the Transactivation Responsive (TAR) element. Once Tat is made, it binds to TAR and drastically activates transcription from the HIV LTR promoter. Mutations in either the Tat protein or TAR sequence usually affect HIV replication, indicating a strong requirement for their conservation. The necessity of the Tat-mediated transactivation cascade for robust HIV replication renders Tat one of the most desirable targets for transcriptional therapy against HIV replication. Screening based on inhibition of the Tat-TAR interaction has identified a number of potential compounds, but none of them are currently used as therapeutics, partly because these agents are not easily delivered for an efficient therapy, emphasizing the need for small molecule compounds. Here we will give an overview of the different strategies used to inhibit HIV transcription and review the current repertoire of small molecular weight compounds that target HIV transcription.

Abstract
Stilbenes are a class of compounds that has been reported to inhibit a variety of pathological processes during inflammatory reactions. In this study, cis-ampelopsin E, a stilbene isolated from the seeds of Paeonia suffruticosa, was shown to dose-dependently reduce the nitric oxide (NO) production from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. The reduction in the nitric oxide release occurred in parallel with the comparable inhibition of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) enzyme expression, which was achieved by cis-ampelopsin E's suppressive effect on nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling activation. By inhibiting LPS-induced inhibitor kinase (IKKα/β) phosphorylation, cis-ampelopsin E significantly decreased LPS-induced IκBα phosphorylation, prevented IκBα degradation, and subsequently reduced the translocating of transcription factor p65 into the nucleus. As a result, the LPS-induced upregulation of NF-κB transcriptional activity was efficiently inhibited. Moreover, it is revealed that cis-ampelopsin E inhibited LPS-induced cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) expression, cPLA2 activation and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production. These results, taken together, suggested that cis-ampelopsin E might exert potential anti-inflammatory effects via blockage of the NF-κB signaling pathway.
