- Highly diastereo- and enantioselective construction of a spiro[cyclopenta[b]indole-1,3′-oxindole] scaffold via catalytic asymmetric formal [3+2] cycloadditions
-
An organocatalytic asymmetric formal [3+2] cycloaddition of isatin-derived 3-indolylmethanol with 3-methyl-2-vinylindole has been established, leading to highly stereoselective construction of a spiro[cyclopenta[b]indole-1,3′-oxindole] scaffold with the concomitant creation of three contiguous stereogenic centers (72-99% yield, all >95:5 dr, 90-98% ee), one of which is an all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center.

- KOH-mediated stereoselective alkylation of 3-bromooxindoles for the synthesis of 3,3′-disubstituted oxindoles with two contiguous all carbon quaternary centres
-
The stereoselective synthesis of 3,3′-disubstituted oxindoles having all-carbon quaternary stereocenters has been achieved using KOH as a base with an excellent diastereomeric ratio (98?:?2). The practicability of the present methodology has been validated with the synthesis of a series of substrates in good to excellent yields. The aesthetic simplicity, accessibility, and eco-friendly base (KOH) have prompted the broader application of the present methodology in organic synthesis.

- Molecular iodine mediated oxidative cleavage of the C-N bond of aryl and heteroaryl (dimethylamino)methyl groups into aldehydes
-
The oxidative cleavage of the C-N bond of aryl and heteroaryl (dimethylamino)methyl groups is achieved by employing molecular iodine as a mild oxidizing agent under ambient conditions in the presence of a mild base. The important reaction of C3 formylation of free NH and substituted indoles containing various substituents is accomplished from the corresponding Mannich bases. This methodology can also be extended for the synthesis of aryl and other heteroaryl aldehydes and ketones. Furthermore, the usefulness of the method is successfully demonstrated on a gram scale.

- A highly selective ratiometric fluorescent probe for H2S based on new heterocyclic ring formation and detection in live cells
-
A 3-indolylacrylate derivative, 3-IA, prepared by connecting an ethyl acrylate in 3-position of indole has been synthesised and characterised. Ethyl acrylate moiety acts as the Michael acceptor towards H2S, and the resultant addition product then participates in intramolecular cyclisation with the ester group at 2-position to form another new heterocyclic ring. Blue fluorescence of 3-IA turned into green in presence of H2S, leading to ratiometric behaviour of the fluorescent sensor with large stokes shift of 55 nm. Probe 3-IA has excellent selectivity towards H2S over other biothiols and other competing anions. Density function theory/time-dependent density function theory calculations were carried out to validate the reaction mechanism and the electronic properties of 3-IA. Importantly, the ratiometric probe 3-IA shows great promise in H2S detection by simple visual fluorescent inspection in filter paper-based protocol. The probe shows its excellent ability to detect H2S in different natural water samples. Furthermore, we have employed our probe to detect H2S for ratiometric imaging in live Vero cell.

- Design, synthesis, in vitro antiproliferative activity and apoptosis-inducing studies of 1-(3′,4′,5′-trimethoxyphenyl)-3-(2′-alkoxycarbonylindolyl)-2-propen-1-one derivatives obtained by a molecular hybridisation approach
-
Inhibition of microtubule function using tubulin targeting agents has received growing attention in the last several decades. The indole scaffold has been recognized as an important scaffold in the design of novel compounds acting as antimitotic agents. Indole-based chalcones, in which one of the aryl rings was replaced by an indole, have been explored in the last few years for their anticancer potential in different cancer cell lines. Eighteen novel (3′,4′,5′-trimethoxyphenyl)-indolyl-propenone derivatives with general structure 9 were synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against a panel of four different human cancer cell lines. The highest IC50 values were obtained against the human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cell line. This series of chalcone derivatives was characterized by the presence of a 2-alkoxycarbonyl indole ring as the second aryl system attached at the carbonyl of the 3-position of the 1-(3′,4′,5′-trimethoxyphenyl)-2-propen-1-one framework. The structure–activity relationship (SAR) of the indole-based chalcone derivatives was investigated by varying the position of the methoxy group, by the introduction of different substituents (hydrogen, methyl, ethyl or benzyl) at the N-1 position and by the activity differences between methoxycarbonyl and ethoxycarbonyl moieties at the 2-position of the indole nucleus. The antiproliferative activity data of the novel synthesized compounds revealed that generally N-substituted indole analogues exhibited considerably reduced potency as compared with their parent N-unsubstituted counterparts, demonstrating that the presence of a hydrogen on the indole nitrogen plays a decisive role in increasing antiproliferative activity. The results also revealed that the position of the methoxy group on the indole ring is a critical determinant of biological activity. Among the synthesized derivatives, compound 9e, containing the 2-methoxycarbonyl-6-methoxy-N-1H-indole moiety exhibited the highest antiproliferative activity, with IC50 values of 0.37, 0.16 and 0.17 μM against HeLa, HT29 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines, respectively, and with considerably lower activity against HL-60 cells (IC50: 18 μM). This derivative also displayed cytotoxic properties (IC50 values ~1 μM) in the human myeloid leukemia U-937 cell line overexpressing human Bcl-2 (U-937/Bcl-2) via cell cycle progression arrest at the G2-M phase and induction of apoptosis. The results obtained also demonstrated that the antiproliferative activity of this molecule is related to inhibition of tubulin polymerisation. The presence of a methoxy group at the C5- or C6-position of the indole nucleus, as well as the absence of substituents at the N-1-indole position, contributed to the optimal activity of the indole-propenone-3′,4′,5′-trimethoxyphenyl scaffold.
