Abstract
The late-stage functionalization of active pharmaceutical ingredients is a key challenge in medicinal chemistry. Furthermore, N-aryl triazoles and tetrazoles are important structural motifs with the potential to boost the activity of diverse drug molecules. Using easily accessible dibenzothiophenium salts for the ruthenium-catalyzed C-H arylation, these scaffolds were introduced into a variety of bioactive compounds. Our methodology uses cost-efficient ruthenium, KOAc as a mild base and gives access to a plethora of highly decorated triazole and tetrazole containing drug derivatives.

Abstract
Here we report B(C6F5)3/CPA-catalyzed enantioselective aza-Diels-Alder reaction of 3,3-difluoro-2-Aryl-3H-indoles with unactivated dienes to access chiral 10,10-difluoro-tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]indoles. This protocol allows the formation of pyrazole-based C2-quaternary indolin-3-ones with high enantioselectivities and regioselectivities. Moreover, gram-scale synthesis of the 10,10-difluoro-tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]indole skeleton was successfully achieved without any reduction in both yield and enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Herein, we report a one-pot greener methodology for the synthesis of 3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-2-phenyl-1H-benzo[f]indole-4,9-dione derivatives by the multicomponent reaction of arylglyoxal monohydrate, 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone, and indole in acetonitrile medium under reflux conditions in the presence of 10 mol% sulfamic acid as a catalyst in 20-30 min of reaction time. Three new bonds have formed (2 C-C, 1 C-N) in this methodology. Bioactive moieties such as indole, pyrrole and naphthoquinone are present in our product. This methodology is also applicable in gram-scale synthesis. A wide variety of substrates were tested to find the generality of the methodology and good yield of the products were obtained in a very short reaction time. Along with the operational simplicity of the methodology, purification process of the products is easier by simple recrystallization process. All the synthesized products were characterized by spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS.

Abstract
An acidic tungstate-based zwitterionic organosilica drived simple self-condensation of tungstic acid and zwitterionic organosilane (PMO-IL-WO42-), was remarkably demonstrated to be highly efficient and environmentally friendly catalyst for directly selective synthesis of benzimidazoles from benzyl alcohols under atmpshpheric air pressure and without any additional oxidant. The one-pot synthesis of benzimidazoles from benzyl alcohols and 1,2-phenylenediamine was efficiently achieved via direct dehydrogenative reaction using a low amount of recoverable PMO-IL-WO42- nanocatalyst in water under ambient conditions with a conversion efficiency of more than 90%. Enhancements in yield and selectivity of benzimidazole formation were observed when water was utilized as the solvent. Furthermore, the PMO-IL-WO42- nanocatalyst exhibited exceptional stability, demonstrating the ability to be effortlessly separated and reused for at least eight reaction cycles without any noticeable loss in activity or product selectivity. This method supports an eco-friendly atom economy and provides a sustainable approach to accessing benzimidazoles directly from benzyl alcohols under mild conditions, demonstrating its potential for practical applications in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Herein, a new pincer-like amino phosphine donor ligand, H2L1, and its phosphine-oxide analog, H2L2, were synthesized. Subsequently, cobalt(II) complexes 1 and 2 were synthesized by the reaction of anhydrous Co(II)Cl2 with ligands H2L1 and H2L2, respectively. The ligands and complexes were fully characterized by various physicochemical and spectroscopic characterization techniques. Finally, the identity of the complexes 1 and 2 was confirmed by single crystal X-ray structure determination. The phosphine ligand containing complex 1 was converted to the phosphine oxide ligand containing complex 2 in air in acetonitrile solution. Both complexes 1 and 2 were investigated as precatalysts for alcohol dehydrogenation-triggered synthesis of imines in air. The phosphine-oxide complex 2 was more efficient than the phosphine complex 1. A wide array of alcohols and amines were successfully reacted in a mild condition to result in imines in good to excellent yields. Precatalyst 2 was also highly efficient for the synthesis of varieties of quinolines in air. As H2L2 in 2 has side arms that can be deprotonated, we investigated complex 2 for its base (KOtBu) promoted deprotonation events by various spectroscopic studies and DFT calculations. These studies have shown that mono deprotonation of the amine side arm attached to the pyridine is quite feasible, and deprotonation of complex 2 leads to a dearomatized pyridyl ring containing complex 2a. The mechanistic investigations of the catalytic reaction, by a combination of experimental and computational studies, have suggested that the dearomatized complex, 2a acted as an active catalyst. The reaction proceeded through the hydride transfer pathway. The activation barrier of this step was calculated to be 26.5 kcal/mol, which is quite consistent with the experimental reaction temperature under aerobic conditions. Although various pincer-like complexes are explored for such reactions, phosphine oxide ligand-containing complexes are still unexplored.

Abstract
The activation and utilization of challenging aliphatic alcohols like methanol and ethanol is a very appealing approach to synthesize valuable organic molecules. Utilization of methanol and ethanol as a coupling partner has emerged as a valuable alternative to synthesize industrially relevant N-heterocycles because they can be easily procured from renewable sources unlike other activated coupling partners which are expensive and also unstable. Herein, a mild and metal-free photocatalytic protocol to synthesize quinazolinones and more challenging benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxides, which is unprecedented at room temperature, is demonstrated. This methodology showcased broad substrate scope and provided important N-heterocycles more efficiently than the transition metal-based high temperature protocols. An unexplored reactivity with allyl alcohol is observed following the developed protocol. A series of control experiments were carried out to understand the mechanism.

Abstract
An efficient RuPHOX-Ru catalyzed asymmetric cascade hydrogenation of 3-substituted chromones has been achieved under mild reaction conditions, affording the corresponding chiral 3-substituted chromanols in high yields with excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivities (up to 99 % yield, >99 % ee and >20 : 1 dr). Control reactions and deuterium labelling experiments revealed that a dynamic kinetic resolution process occurs during the subsequent hydrogenation of the C=O double bond, which is responsible for the high performance of the asymmetric cascade hydrogenation. The resulting products allow for several transformations and it was shown that the protocol provides a practical and alternative strategy for the synthesis of chiral 3-substituted chromanols and their derivatives.

Abstract
2,5-Disubstituted furans are frequently found in pharmaceuticals and bioactive natural products. Nucleophilic substitution reactions on the carbon atom adjacent to the furan ring are useful for producing various furan derivatives. However, the formation of 5-substituted 2-halomethylfuran and the subsequent nucleophilic substitution reactions are often limited by severe undesired reactions caused by the highly reactive halomethylfurans. This paper reports the successful rapid synthesis of various 2,5-disubstituted furans using microflow technology, which suppresses undesired reactions including dimerization and ring opening of the furans. We observed that Brønsted acids had a significant effect on the nucleophilic substitution reaction and the use of HBr and HI gave the best results. A plausible mechanism of the Brønsted acid-mediated nucleophilic substitutions in the developed approach was proposed.

Abstract
The biphenyl scaffold represents a prominent privileged structure within the realms of organic chemistry and drug development. Biphenyl derivatives have demonstrated notable biological activities, including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-HIV, and the treatment of neuropathic pain. Importantly, their anticancer abilities should not be underestimated. In this context, the present study involves the design and synthesis of a series of biphenyl derivatives featuring an additional privileged structure, namely the quinoline core. We have also diversified the substituents attached to the benzyloxy group at either the meta or para position of the biphenyl ring categorized into two distinct groups: [4,3']biphenylaminoquinoline-substituted and [3,3']biphenylaminoquinoline-substituted compounds. We embarked on an assessment of the cytotoxic activities of these derivatives in colorectal cancer cell line SW480 and prostate cancer cell line DU145 for exploring the structure-activity relationship. Furthermore, we determined the IC50 values of selected compounds that exhibited superior inhibitory effects on cell viability against SW480, DU145 cells, as well as MDA-MB-231 and MiaPaCa-2 cells. Notably, [3,3']biphenylaminoquinoline derivative 7j displayed the most potent cytotoxicity against these four cancer cell lines, SW480, DU145, MDA-MB-231, and MiaPaCa-2, with IC50 values of 1.05 μM, 0.98 μM, 0.38 μM, and 0.17 μM, respectively. This highly promising outcome underscores the potential of [3,3']biphenylaminoquinoline 7j for further investigation as a prospective anticancer agent in future research endeavors.

Abstract
Heterocyclic hybrid frameworks represent a burgeoning domain within the realms of drug discovery and medicinal chemistry, attracting considerable attention in recent years. Thiazole pharmacophore fragments, inherent in natural products such as peptide alkaloids, metabolites, and cyclopeptides, have demonstrated a broad spectrum of pharmacological potentials. Given their profound biological significance, a plethora of thiazole-based hybrids have been synthesized through the conjugation of thiazole moieties with bioactive pyrazole and pyrazoline fragments. This review systematically presents a compendium of robust methodologies for the synthesis of thiazole-linked hybrids, employing the (3 + 2) heterocyclization reaction, specifically the Hantzsch-thiazole synthesis, utilizing phenacyl bromide as the substrate. The strategic approach of molecular hybridization has markedly enhanced drug efficacy, mitigated resistance to multiple drugs, and minimized toxicity concerns. The resultant thiazole-linked hybrids exhibit a myriad of medicinal properties viz. anticancer, antibacterial, anticonvulsant, antifungal, antiviral, and antioxidant activities. This compilation of methodologies and insights serves as a valuable resource for medicinal chemists and researchers engaged in the design of novel thiazole-linked hybrids endowed with therapeutic attribute.

Abstract
A series of novel chromone derivatives of (N-(4-oxo-2-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-chromen-6-yl) benzamides) were synthesized by treating 7-amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one with K2CO3 and/or NaH, suitable alkyl halides and acetonitrile and/or 1,4-dioxane. The obtained products are in high yields (87 to 96%) with various substituents in short reaction times with no more by-products and confirmed by FT-IR, 1H, and 13C-NMR Spectral data. The in vitro cytotoxic activity was examined against two human cancer cell lines, namely the human lung adenocarcinoma (A-549) and the human breast (MCF-7) cancer cell line. Compound 4h showed promising cytotoxicity against both cell lines with IC50 values of 22.09 and 6.40 ± 0.26 µg/mL respectively, compared to that of the standard drug. We also performed the in vitro antioxidant activity by DPPH radical, hydrogen peroxide, NO scavenging, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) assay methods, and they showed significant activities. The possible binding interactions of all the synthesized chromone derivatives are also investigated against selective pharmacological targets of human beings, such as HERA protein for cytotoxic activity and Peroxiredoxins (3MNG) for antioxidant activity which showed closer binding free energies than the standard drugs and evidencing the above two types of activities.

Abstract
Iodine-containing molecules, especially hypervalent iodine compounds, have gained significant attention in organic synthesis. They are valuable and sustainable reagents, leading to a remarkable surge in their use for chemical transformations. One such hypervalent iodine compound, phenyliodine bis(trifluoroacetate)/bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodobenzene, commonly referred to as PIFA, has emerged as a prominent candidate due to its attributes of facile manipulation, moderate reactivity, low toxicity, and ready availability. PIFA presents an auspicious prospect as a substitute for costly organometallic catalysts and environmentally hazardous oxidants containing heavy metals. PIFA exhibits remarkable catalytic activity, facilitating an array of consequential organic reactions, including sulfenylation, alkylarylation, oxidative coupling, cascade reactions, amination, amidation, ring-rearrangement, carboxylation, and numerous others. Over the past decade, the application of PIFA in synthetic chemistry has witnessed substantial growth, necessitating an updated exploration of this field. In this discourse, we present a concise overview of PIFA's applications as a 'green' reagent in the domain of synthetic organic chemistry. A primary objective of this article is to bring to the forefront the scientific community's awareness of the merits associated with adopting PIFA as an environmentally conscientious alternative to heavy metals.

Abstract
The total synthesis of cyclotripeptidic natural products possessing a central piperazino[2,1-b]quinazolin-3,6-dione core is described through an original strategy involving the pivotal cyclocondensation of an electrophilic homoserine lactone intermediate. The alkylidene group was spontaneously installed by autoxidation during the cyclocondensation process, while the propionamide side chain was introduced through the nickel-catalyzed aminocarbonylation of a bromoethyl intermediate. This last reaction is unprecedented on such highly functionalized intermediates. Finally, we explored structural modifications and interconversions of the natural products. Overall, this work led to anacine, aurantiomide C, polonimides A and C, and verrucine F.

Abstract
Indoles are the most versatile organic N-heterocyclic compounds widely present in bioactive natural products and used in different fields such as coordination chemistry, pharmacy, dyes, and medicine, as well as in the biology and polymer industries. More recently, the indole scaffold has been widely used in analytical chemistry for the design and development of small-molecule fluorescent chemosensors in the fields of molecular recognition and molecular imaging. The indole-based chemosensor derivatives contain heteroatoms like N-, O-, and S-, through which they interact with analytes (cations, anions, and neutral species), producing measurable analytical signals that can be used for the fluorimetric and colorimetric detection of different analytes in biological, agricultural and environmental samples. This review focuses on indole-based small-molecule fluorimetric and colorimetric chemosensors for detecting cations, anions, and neutral species in a comprehensive manner. Furthermore, the recognition mechanisms are discussed in detail, which could help researchers design and develop more powerful and efficient fluorescent chemosensors in the near future.

Abstract
Research on synthesizing nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffolds is important because these structures are commonly found in Nature, such as in the alkaloids' family. In our study, we propose a new method to synthesize the isoquinoline core using an electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex strategy. Our mechanistic investigations have confirmed that our synthesis process operates through an EDA mechanism, which is not extensively discussed in the literature, particularly regarding its applications on alkynyl substrates. This EDA strategy has proven to be a simple and straightforward way to produce isoquinoline scaffolds and their derivatives without the need for metal catalysts.

Abstract
An effective and stereoselective synthesis of halogenated (E)-4-methylenechromanes with a sulfonyl group was developed via the copper-catalyzed sulfonylative annulation/halogenation of 1,7-enynes, in which sodium sulfinates were used as the sulfonyl reagents and tetrabutylammonium halide provided the halogen sources. The formed alkenyl C-X bonds were valuable and can efficiently undergo the subsequent hydrolysis, alkenylation, alkynylation, arylation, alkylthiolation, and alkoxylation to furnish a series of highly functionalized 4-methylenechromanes.

Abstract
The direct functionalization of β-C(sp2)-H bonds in enamides has garnered increasing attention within the realm of organic synthesis. However, these remarkable advancements are predominantly dependent on transition metals; limited success has been achieved via organocatalytic catalysis. Herein, we report a CPA-catalyzed β-C(sp2)-H functionalization of enamides cascade intramolecular cyclization to synthesize the chiral dihydropyrimido[1,6-a]indoles bearing gem-difluoromethylene. Moreover, this methodology enables the synthesis of diverse chiral dihydropyrimido[1,6-a]indoles with outstanding enantioselectivities in moderate to high yields.

Abstract
The first (5+1) annulation of allenoates and pyrazolones catalyzed by CH3OK has been reported. A series of spiro-pyrazolone derivatives were obtained as single diastereomers in high yields (≤95%) under mild conditions. The synthetic utility was demonstrated by a scale-up reaction and various transformations of the products. The proposed mechanism suggests that the allenoate works as a 1,5-biselectrophilic 5C synthon for the first time and controlled experiments disclose that K+ plays an important role in the diastereoselectivity-determining step through an eight-membered ring transition state. Also, this 1,5-biselectrophilic allenoate will be able to act as a 5C synthon for (5+n) annulation.

Abstract
Nowadays, cancer represents one of the major causes of death in humans worldwide, which renders the quest for new and improved antineoplastic agents to become an urgent issue in the field of biomedicine and human health. The present research focuses on the synthesis of 2,3,2',3'-tetra(pyridin-2-yl)-6,6'-biquinoxaline) and (2,3,2',3'-tetra(thiophen-2-yl)-6,6'-biquinoxaline) containing copper(II) and platinum(II) compounds as prodrug candidates. The binding interaction of these compounds with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) and human serum albumin were assessed with UV titration, thermal decomposition, viscometric, and fluorometric methods. The thermodynamical parameters and the temperature-dependent binding constant (K'b) values point out to spontaneous interactions between the complexes and CT-DNA via the van der Waals interactions and/or hydrogen bonding, except Cu(ttbq)Cl2 for which electrostatic interaction was proposed. The antitumor activity of the complexes against several human glioblastomata, lung, breast, cervix, and prostate cell lines were investigated by examining cell viability, oxidative stress, apoptosis-terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling, in vitro migration and invasion, in vitro-comet DNA damage, and plasmid DNA interaction assays. The U87 and HeLa cells were investigated as the cancer cells most sensitive to our complexes. The exerted cytotoxic effect of complexes was attributed to the formation of the reactive oxygen species in vitro. It is clearly demonstrated that Cu(ttbq)Cl2, Pt(ttbq)Cl2, and Pt(tpbq)Cl2 have the highest DNA degradation potential and anticancer effect among the tested complexes by leading apoptosis. The wound healing and invasion analysis results also supported the higher anticancer activity of these two compounds.

Abstract
Benzopyrans (BZPs) are among the most privileged and influential small O-heterocycles that form the core of many natural compounds, commercial drugs, biological compositions, agrochemicals, and functional materials. BZPs are divided into six general categories including coumarins, chromans, 2H-chromenes, 4H-chromenes, chromones, and 4-chromanones, each of which is abundant in many plants and foods. These oxygenated heterocyclic compounds are fascinating motifs and have extensive applications in biology and materials science. Hence, numerous efforts have been made to develop innovative approaches for their extraction and synthesis. However, most of them are step-by-step or multi-step strategies that suffer from waste material generation and a tedious extraction process. Isocyanide-based multicomponent reactions (I-MCRs) offer a highly efficient method for overcoming these problems. The I-MCR is a simple and environmentally friendly one-pot domino procedure that does not require intermediate isolation or workup and is generally more efficient in material usage. This review covers all research articles related to I-MCRs for synthesizing BZP derivatives from the beginning to the middle of the year 2023. This strategy will be useful for organic and pharmaceutical chemists to design new drugs and optimize the synthesis steps of biological compounds and commercial drugs with benzopyran cores.

Abstract
With the advent of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) outbreak, efforts are still in progress to find out a functional cure for the infection. Among the various protein targets, nsp16 capping protein is one of the vital targets for drug development as it protects the virus against the host cell nucleases and evading innate immunity. The nsp16 protein forms a heterodimer with a co-factor nsp10 and triggers 2'-O-methyltransferase activity which catalyzes the conversion of S-adenosyl methionine into S-adenosyl homocysteine. The free methyl group is transferred to the 2'-O position on ribose sugar at the 5' end of mRNA to form the cap-1 structure which is essential for replication of the virus and evading the innate immunity of the host. In this study, we identify a potential lead natural bioactive compound against nsp16 protein by systematic cheminformatic analysis of more than 144k natural compounds. Virtual screening, molecular docking interactions, ADMET profiling, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, molecular mechanics-generalized born surface area (MM-GBSA), free energy analysis and density functional theory analysis were used to discover the potential lead compound. Our investigation revealed that ZINC8952607 (methyl-[(6-methyl-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazol-1-yl)aminomethyl]BLAHone) has the greatest binding affinity and best pharmacokinetic parameters due to presence of carbazol and BLAHone (biaryl moiety). Further, time-dependent MD simulation analysis substantiates the stability and rigidness of nsp16 protein even after interaction with the lead compound. We believe that the compound ZINC8952607 might establish as a novel natural drug candidate against CoVID-19 infection.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
A highly regioselective photocatalytic method to access a variety of biaryl motifs under metal-free conditions has been developed. The organophotocatalyst is involved in π-π stacking interactions with the alkyne species, which promotes this photocatalytic process with thiophene. Mechanistic studies have shed light on these interactions and the overall process. Along with a broad functional-group tolerance and excellent regioselectivity, this protocol has been utilized in the late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals and other natural products.

[PMID: 38150013 PMCID: PMC10785825 DOI: 10.1021/jacs.3c08479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/28/2023]
Abstract
The electrochemical transition metal-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative reaction has emerged as a promising platform to achieve a sustainable and atom-economic organic synthesis that avoids hazardous oxidants and minimizes undesired byproducts and circuitous functional group operations. However, a poor mechanistic understanding still prevents the widespread adoption of this strategy. In this regard, we herein present an electrochemical palladium-catalyzed oxidative coupling strategy to access biaryls in the absence of a stoichiometric chemical oxidant. The robust palladaelectrocatalysis considerably suppresses the occurrence of homocoupling and oxygenation, being compatible even with electron-deficient arenes. Late-stage functionalization and Boscalid precursor synthesis further highlighted the practical importance of our electrolysis. Remarkably, mechanistic studies including the evaluation of the reaction order of each component by variable time normalization analysis (VTNA) and initial rate analysis, H/D exchange experiment, kinetic isotope effect, and stoichiometric organometallic experiments provided strong support for the involvement of transmetalation between two organopalladium complexes in the turnover limiting step. Therefore, matching the concentrations or lifetimes of two distinct organopalladium intermediates is revealed to be a pivot to the success of electrooxidative catalysis. Moreover, the presence of cationic copper(II) seems to contribute to the stabilization of the palladium(0) catalyst instead of playing a role in the oxidation of the catalyst.

Abstract
In this study, we present a novel and cost-effective approach for synthesizing biologically significant analogues of rutaecarpine alkaloid through a one-step cascade reaction. The pentacyclic core of rutaecarpine alkaloid analogues is efficiently constructed using 2-aminobenzonitriles and substituted indole-2-carbaldehydes in the presence of the affordable base KOtBu. The salient feature of this approach is the promotion of a sequential cascade process within a single reaction vessel including the formation of a dihydroquinazolinone ring, oxidation, and cyclization. This method can be successfully applied on a larger scale, making it economically viable.

Abstract
A mild and metal-free strategy for the construction of trifluoromethylated pyrazolo[4,3-b]indoles through the reaction of N-substituted 3-nitroindoles with trifluorodiazoethane is reported. This operationally simple transformation involves a [3 + 2] cycloaddition of trifluorodiazoethane with 3-nitroindole, followed by the elimination of the nitro group to furnish pyrazole-fused indoles. The synthetic utility of this method is further demonstrated by applying it to other heterocycles, such as 3-nitrobenzothiophene and 2-nitrobenzofuran.

Abstract
E3 ubiquitin ligase, Constitutive Photomorphogenic 1 (COP1) regulates turnover of Adipose Triglyceride Lipase (ATGL), the rate-limiting lipolytic enzyme. Genetic perturbation in the COP1-ATGL axis disrupts lipid homeostasis, leading to liver steatosis. Using drug development strategies, we herein report quinazolinone and quinazolinedione based modulators for COP1-ATGL axis. Systematic SAR studies and subsequent optimization were performed by incorporating relevant functional groups at the N1, N3, C5, and C6 positions of both scaffolds. Compounds' efficacy was evaluated by multiple biological assays and ADME profiling. The lead compound 86 could increase ATGL protein expression, reduce ATGL ubiquitination and COP1 autoubiquitination, and diminish lipid accumulation in hepatocytes in the nanomolar range. Oral administration of 86 abrogated triglyceride accumulation and resolved fibrosis in preclinical Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) model. The study thus establishes quinazolinedione as a viable chemotype to therapeutically modulate the activity of COP1 and ATGL in relevant clinical contexts.

Abstract
Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) catalyze the methylation of the terminal nitrogen atoms of the guanidino group of arginine of protein substrates. The aberrant expression of these methyltransferases is linked to various diseases, making them promising therapeutic targets. Currently, PRMT inhibitors are at different stages of clinical development, which validated their significance as drug targets. Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) has reported several small fragment inhibitors as Class I PRMT inhibitors, which can be the starting point for rational drug development. Herein, we report the successful application of a fragment-based approach toward the discovery of selective Class I PRMT inhibitors. Structure-based ligand optimization was performed by strategic incorporation of fragment hits on the drug-like quinazoline core and subsequent fragment growth in the desired orientation towards identified hydrophobic shelf. A clear SAR was established, and the lead compounds 55 and 56 displayed potent inhibition of Class I PRMTs with IC50 values of 92 nM and 37 nM against PRMT4. We report the systematic development of potent Class I PRMT inhibitors with good potency and about 100-fold selectivity when tested against a panel of 31 human DNA, RNA, and protein lysine and arginine methyltransferases. These improved small molecules will provide new options for the development of novel potent and selective PRMT4 inhibitors.

Abstract
Janus kinases (JAKs) play a critical role in modulating the function and expression of inflammatory cytokines related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationships (SARs) of a series of novel quinazoline derivatives as JAK inhibitors. Among these inhibitors, compound 11n showed high potency against JAKs (JAK1/JAK2/JAK3/TYK2, IC50 = 0.40, 0.83, 2.10, 1.95 nM), desirable metabolic characters, and excellent pharmacokinetic properties. In collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) models, compound 11n exhibited significant reduction in joint swelling with good safety, which could be served as a potential therapeutic candidate for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Urotensin II receptor (UT) modulators that differentiate the effects of the endogenous cyclic peptide ligands urotensin II (UII) and urotensin II-related peptide (URP) offer potential for dissecting their respective biological roles in disease etiology. Selective modulators of hUII and URP activities were obtained using 1,3,4-benzotriazepin-2-one mimics of a purported bioactive γ-turn conformation about the Bip-Lys-Tyr tripeptide sequence of urocontrin ([Bip4]URP). Considering an active β-turn conformer about the shared Phe-Trp-Lys-Tyr sequence of UII and URP, 8-substituted 1,3,4-benzotriazepin-2-ones were designed to mimic the Phe-Bip-Lys-Tyr tetrapeptide sequence of urocontrin, synthesized, and examined for biological activity. Subtle 5- and 8-position modifications resulted in biased signaling and selective modulation of hUII- or URP-induced vasoconstriction. For example, p-hydroxyphenethyl analogs 17b-d were strong Gα13 and βarr1 activators devoid of Gαq-mediated signaling. Tertiary amides 15d and 17d negatively modulated hUII-induced vasoconstriction without affecting URP-mediated responses. Benzotriazepinone carboxamides proved to be exceptional tools for elucidating the pharmacological complexity of UT.

Abstract
An efficient, highly selective and divergent synthetic method to construct 2-substituted indoles and aryl-annulated carbazoles via the intermolecular generation of α-imino gold carbenes from terminal alkynes or diynes in combination with sulfilimines is disclosed. Importantly, the tandem reaction is proposed to proceed through an intermolecular gold carbene generation/C-H annulation followed by the activation of a second alkyne leading to 6-endo-dig cyclization, which is significantly different from previous dual activation or 1,6-carbene shift approaches for diyne systems. In the case of ortho-alkynylaniline as starting material, an unexpected regioselective formation of the indole moiety via the intermolecular path, instead of intramolecular hydroamination was discovered. This reactivity paved the way for a one-pot synthesis of the 11H-indolo [3,2-c] quinoline scaffold by exploiting the formed amino indole for a subsequent Pictet-Spengler reaction with aldehydes. The photophysical properties of the carbazoles indicated good violet-blue emission with quantum yields up to 40 %.

Abstract
Carbon-carbon (C-C) coupling of organic halides has been successfully achieved in homogeneous catalysis, while the limitation, e.g., the dependence on rare noble metals, complexity of the metal-ligand catalylst and the poor catalyst stability and recyclability, needs to be tackled for a green process. The past few years have witnessed heterogeneous photocatalysis as a green and novel method for organic synthesis processes. However, the study on C-C coupling of chloride substrates is rare due to the extremely high bond energy of C-Cl bond (327 kJ mol-1 ). Here, we report a robust heterogeneous photocatalyst (Cu/ZnO) to drive the homo-coupling of benzyl chloride with high efficiency, which achieves an unprecedented high selectivity of bibenzyl (93 %) and yield rate of 92 % at room temperature. Moreover, this photocatalytic process has been validated for C-C coupling of 10 benzylic chlorides all with high yields. In addition, the excellent stability has been observed for 8 cycles of reactions. With detailed characterization and DFT calculation, the high selectivity is attributed to the enhanced adsorption of reactants, stabilization of intermediates (benzyl radicals) for the selective coupling by the Cu loading and the moderate oxidation ability of the ZnO support, besides the promoted charge separation and transfer by Cu species.

Abstract
An efficient visible-light-promoted organic-dye-catalyzed radical cascade cyclization was developed for the rapid synthesis of sulfonyl-substituted indolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines and benzimidazo[2,1-a]isoquinolin-6(5H)-ones. Using the economical and environmentally benign Eosin B as the photocatalyst, a wide range of indolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives were obtained in moderate to good yields. Mechanistic studies indicate that a sulfonyl radical pathway is involved in this reaction. Compared with previous works, this protocol has the advantages of being metal- and base-free, using visible light as a traceless energy source, simple operation and mild reaction conditions, all of which make this methodology more attractive.

Abstract
A series of Mn(I) complexes Mn(L1 )(CO)3 Br, Mn(L2 )(CO)3 Br, Mn(L1 )(CO)3 (OAc) and Mn(L3 )(CO)3 Br [L1 =2-(5-tert-butyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-1,8-naphthyridine, L2 =2-(5-tert-butyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine, L3 =2-(5-tert-butyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-1,8-naphthyridine] were synthesized and fully characterized. The acid-base equilibrium between the pyrazole and the pyrazolato forms of Mn(L1 )(CO)3 Br was studied by 1 H NMR and UV-vis spectra. These complexes are screened as catalysts for acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling (ADC) of primary alcohols and aromatic diamines for the synthesis of benzimidazole and quinoline derivatives with the release of H2 and H2 O as byproducts. The protic complex Mn(L1 )(CO)3 Br shows the highest catalytic activity for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives with broad substrate scope, whereas a related complex [Mn(L3 )(CO)3 Br], which is devoid of the proton responsive β-NH unit, shows significantly reduced catalytic efficiency validating the crucial role of the β-NH functionality for the alcohol dehydrogenation reactions. Control experiments, kinetic and deuterated studies, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal a synchronous hydride-proton transfer by the metal-ligand construct in the alcohol dehydrogenation step.

Abstract
Fused coumarins, because of their remarkable biological and therapeutic properties, particularly pyranocoumarins, have caught the interest of synthetic organic chemists, leading to the development of more efficient and environmentally friendly protocols for synthesizing pyranocoumarin derivatives. These compounds are the most promising heterocycles discovered in both natural and synthetic sources, with anti-inflammatory, anti-HIV, antitubercular, antihyperglycemic, and antibacterial properties. This review employed the leading scientific databases Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and PubMed up to the end of 2022, as well as the combining terms pyranocoumarins, synthesis, isolation, structural elucidation, and biological activity. Among the catalysts employed, acidic magnetic nanocatalysts, transition metal catalysts, and carbon-based catalysts have all demonstrated improved reaction yields and facilitated reactions under milder conditions. Herein, the present review discusses the various multicomponent synthetic strategies for pyranocoumarins catalyzed by transition metal-based catalysts, transition metal-based nanocatalysts, transition metal-free catalysts, carbon-based nanocatalysts, and their potential pharmacological activities.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) are a family of flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent enzymes that catalyze the oxidative deamination of a wide range of endogenous and exogenous amines. Multiple neurological conditions, including Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), are closely correlated with altered biogenic amine concentrations in the brain caused by MAO. Toxic byproducts of this oxidative breakdown, including hydrogen peroxide, reactive oxygen species, and ammonia, can cause oxidative damage and mitochondrial dysfunction in brain cells. Certain MAO-B blockers have been recognized as effective treatment options for managing neurological conditions, including AD and PD. There is still a pressing need to find potent therapeutic molecules to fight these disorders. However, the focus of neurodegeneration studies has recently increased, and certain compounds are now in clinical trials. Chromones are promising structures for developing therapeutic compounds, especially in neuronal degeneration. This review focuses on the MAO-B inhibitory potential of several synthesized chromones and their structural activity relationships. Concerning the discovery of a novel class of effective chromone-based selective MAO-B-inhibiting agents, this review offers readers a better understanding of the most recent additions to the literature.

Abstract
The transformation of ethanol to value-added chemicals has tremendous potential. However, generally, harsh reaction conditions are needed for the functionalization of ethanol due to its high dehydrogenation energy. Herein, a metal-free photo-mediated activation of challenging ethanol and higher aliphatic alcohols for the synthesis of differently functionalized benzimidazoles under mild conditions is disclosed. The interplay of a photocatalyst and a HAT reagent facilitated the activation of aliphatic alcohols. A wide array of diamines with different functional groups were well tolerated, and the protocol was also extended to N-substituted diamines for the synthesis of industrially important benzimidazoles. A probable catalytic cycle was proposed based on various mechanistic studies.

Abstract
Herein, we develop a metal-free, nondirected, site-selective, one-pot approach to meta-arylation of arylamines. This Brønsted acid-catalyzed, direct C-C bond formation offers a broad substrate scope and scalability and creates the ideal conditions for overriding the conventional site-selectivity to furnish meta-substituted anilines. Additionally, the protocol applies to the meta-allylation of anilines and has been extended to afford late-stage functionalization and synthesis of medicinally privileged arylated diamines and densely functionalized anilines. The control experiments and density functional theory studies provide evidence for the proposed mechanism and selectivity.

The new quinazoline derivative (N 2-methyl-N 4-[(thiophen-2-yl)methyl]quinazoline-2,4-diamine) vasodilates isolated mesenteric arteries through endothelium-independent mechanisms and has acute hypotensive effects in Wistar rats. Eur J Pharmacol 2023; 953:175829.

Abstract
During the screening of new N2,N4-disubstituted quinazoline 2,4-diamines as phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors and pulmonary artery vasodilators, one N2-methyl-N4-[(thiophen-2-yl)methyl]quinazoline-2,4-diamine (compound 8) presented a greater selectivity for systemic than pulmonary vasculature. The present study aimed to characterize its vasorelaxant and hypotensive effects in Wistar rats. Vasorelaxant effects of compound 8 and underlying mechanisms were evaluated on isolated mesenteric arteries. Acute hypotensive effect was evaluated in anesthetized rats. Additionally, cell viability and cytochrome P450 (CYP) activities were studied in rat isolated hepatocytes. Nifedipine was used as a comparator. Compound 8 induced a strong vasorelaxant effect, similar to nifedipine. This was unaffected by endothelium removal but was decreased by inhibitors of guanylate cyclase (ODQ) and KCa channel (iberiotoxin). Compound 8 enhanced sodium nitroprusside-induced relaxation, but inhibited vasoconstriction evoked by α1-adrenergic receptor activation and extracellular Ca2+ influx via receptor-operated Ca2+ channels. Acute intravenous infusion of compound 8 (0.05 and 0.1 mg/kg) produced hypotension. It showed similar potency to nifedipine for lowering diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure, but less so for the effect on systolic blood pressure. Compound 8 had no effect on hepatocyte viability and CYP activities except at high concentration (10 μM) at which a weak inhibitory effect on CYP1A and 3A was observed. In conclusion, this study identified a N2-methyl-N4-[(thiophen-2-yl)methyl]quinazoline-2,4-diamine with a potent vasodilator effect on resistance vessels, leading to an acute hypotensive effect and a low risk of liver toxicity or drug-drug interactions. These vascular effects were mediated mainly through sGC/cGMP pathway, opening of KCa channels, and inhibition of calcium entry.

Abstract
A facile protocol was developed for the combinatorial synthesis of furo[2,3-d]pyrimidinone and pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidinone library via a one-pot condensation, from 2-amino furans/pyrroles. Herein reported process required a similar reaction condition, providing mild access to two diverse series of natural product-like heterocycles. Both furo[2,3-d]pyrimidinones and pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidinones were evaluated in vitro against a panel of human cancer cell lines including against human cancer HeLa (cervical), MCF-7 (breast) and HT-29 (colon) cell lines. Derivative 12n ((2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-methyl-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(1H)-one)) showed high activity (IC50 = 6.55 ± 0.31 µM) against the HeLa cell line. These products could be subjected to a various modification and therefore represent important skeletons for the anticancer drug discovery.

Abstract
Accurate prediction of cancer drug response (CDR) is a longstanding challenge in modern oncology that underpins personalized treatment. Current computational methods implement CDR prediction by modeling responses between entire drugs and cell lines, without the consideration that response outcomes may primarily attribute to a few finer-level 'subcomponents', such as privileged substructures of the drug or gene signatures of the cancer cell, thus producing predictions that are hard to explain. Herein, we present SubCDR, a subcomponent-guided deep learning method for interpretable CDR prediction, to recognize the most relevant subcomponents driving response outcomes. Technically, SubCDR is built upon a line of deep neural networks that enables a set of functional subcomponents to be extracted from each drug and cell line profile, and breaks the CDR prediction down to identifying pairwise interactions between subcomponents. Such a subcomponent interaction form can offer a traceable path to explicitly indicate which subcomponents contribute more to the response outcome. We verify the superiority of SubCDR over state-of-the-art CDR prediction methods through extensive computational experiments on the GDSC dataset. Crucially, we found many predicted cases that demonstrate the strength of SubCDR in finding the key subcomponents driving responses and exploiting these subcomponents to discover new therapeutic drugs. These results suggest that SubCDR will be highly useful for biomedical researchers, particularly in anti-cancer drug design.

Abstract
We disclose herein our detailed investigation into the Barton copper-promoted C3-arylation of indoles using triarylbismuth bis(trifluoroacetates). The arylation of unsubstituted 1H-indole using Barton's conditions gave a low yield of the C3-arylated indole, along with small amounts of the product of double C2/C3-arylation and traces of the product of C2 arylation. On the contrary, the arylation of indoles blocked at the C2 position is highly efficient, affording the desired products of C3-arylation in good to excellent yields. The reaction operates under simple conditions, shows good substrate scope, excellent functional group compatibility, and allows the transfer of electron-neutral or deficient aryl groups. Computational studies propose a mechanism involving a trifluoroacetate-assisted C-H activation step.

Abstract
The synthesis of biaryl compounds by the transition-metal free coupling of arenes is an important contemporary challenge, aiming to avoid the toxicity and cost profiles associated with the metal catalysts commonly used in the synthesis of these pharmaceutically relevant motifs. In this paper, we describe an electrochemical approach to the synthesis of biaryls in which aniline derivatives are coupled through the formation and reduction of a temporary urea linkage. The conformational alignment of the arenes in the N,N'-diaryl urea intermediates promotes C-C bond formation following single-electron reduction. Our optimized conditions are suitable for the synthesis of a variety of biaryls, including sterically hindered examples carrying ortho-substituents, representing complementary reactivity to most metal catalysed methods.

Abstract
A simple, cost-effective, and straightforward method for the synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted indole scaffolds has been developed. The present protocol involves copper-mediated tandem hydroamination followed by C-H annulation of unprotected anilines with a wide range of internal alkynes. In the presence of Cu(OAc)2·H2O and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), the reaction proceeds well to afford a variety of substituted indole derivatives in moderate to good yields. This process was found to be compatible with both primary and secondary anilines coupled with aromatic/aliphatic alkynes. High-purity copper nanoparticles can be recovered after the reaction, revealing the cost-effectiveness and environmentally benign feature of the current protocol.

Abstract
The acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling (ADC) between alcohols and amines to produce imines has been achieved mostly by employing precious-metal-based complexes or complexes of earth-abundant metal ions with sensitive and complicated ligand systems as catalysts mostly under harsh reaction conditions. Methodologies using readily available earth-abundant metal salts as catalysts without the requirement of ligand, oxidant, or any external additives are not explored. We report an unprecedented microwave-assisted CoCl2-catalyzed acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of benzyl alcohol and amine for the synthesis of E-aldimines, N-heterocycles, and H2 under mild condition, without any complicated exogenous ligand template, oxidant, or other additives. This environmentally benign methodology exhibits broad substrate scope (43 including 7 new products) with fair functional-group tolerance on the aniline ring. Detection of metal-associated intermediate by gas chromatography (GC) and HRMS, H2 detection by GC, and kinetic isotope effect reveal the mechanism of this CoCl2-catalyzed reaction to be via ADC. Furthermore, kinetic experiments and Hammett analysis with variation in the nature of substituents over the aniline ring reveal the insight into the reaction mechanism with different substituents.

Abstract
An efficient base-mediated/metal-free approach has been developed for the synthesis of 1-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrazino[1,2-a]indole-3-carboxamide derivatives via intramolecular indole N-H alkylation of novel bis-amide Ugi-adducts. In this protocol the Ugi reaction of (E)-cinnamaldehyde derivatives, 2-chloroaniline, indole-2-carboxylic acid and different isocyanides was designed for the preparation of bis-amides. The main highlight of this study is the practical and highly regioselective preparation of new polycyclic functionalized pyrazino derivatives. This system is facilitated by Na2CO3 mediation in DMSO and 100 °C conditions.

Discovery of andrographolide hit analog as a potent cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor through consensus MD-simulation, electrostatic potential energy simulation and ligand efficiency metrics. Sci Rep 2023; 13:8147. [PMID: 37208387 PMCID: PMC10199084 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-35192-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2022] [Accepted: 05/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is the key enzyme responsible for the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins that display pro-inflammatory properties and thus, it is a potential target protein to develop anti-inflammatory drugs. In this study, chemical and bio-informatics approaches have been employed to find a novel potent andrographolide (AGP) analog as a COX-2 inhibitor having better pharmacological properties than aspirin and rofecoxib (controls). The full amino acid sequenced human Alpha fold (AF) COX-2 protein (604AA) was selected and validated for its accuracy against the reported COX-2 protein structures (PDB ID: 5F19, 5KIR, 5F1A, 5IKQ and 1V0X) followed by multiple sequence alignment analysis to establish the sequence conservation. The systematic virtual screening of 237 AGP analogs against AF-COX-2 protein yielded 22 lead compounds based on the binding energy score (< - 8.0 kcal/mol). These were further screened out to 7 analogs by molecular docking analysis and investigated further for ADMET prediction, ligand efficiency metrics calculations, quantum mechanical analysis, MD simulation, electrostatic potential energy (EPE) docking simulation, and MM/GBSA. In-depth analysis revealed that AGP analog A3 (3-[2-[(1R,4aR,5R,6R,8aR)-6-hydroxy-5,6,8a-trimethyl-2-methylidene-3,4,4a,5,7,8-hexahydro-1H-naphthalen-1-yl]ethylidene]-4-hydroxyoxolan-2-one) forms the most stable complex with the AF-COX-2 showing the least RMSD value (0.37 ± 0.03 nm), a good number of hydrogen bonds (protein-ligand H-bond = 11, and protein H-bond = 525), minimum EPE score (- 53.81 kcal/mol), and lowest MM-GBSA before and after simulation (- 55.37 and - 56.25 kcal/mol, respectively) value compared to other analogs and controls. Thus, we suggest that the identified A3 AGP analog could be developed as a promising plant-based anti-inflammatory drug by inhibiting COX-2.
