- Synthesis, insecticidal activities and SAR of novel phthalamides targeting calcium channel
-
In order to find novel and environmental friendly insecticides targeting the ryanodine receptor, three series of novel phthalamides containing heptafluoroisopropyl group, low fluorine atoms group and non-fluorine group were designed and synthesized. 35 novel structures of three series were obtained. Insecticidal activities of title compounds against oriental armyworm (Mythimna separata) and diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) indicated that most of title compounds showed moderate to high activities at the tested concentration. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) was discussed in detail. During synthesizing title compounds B8, C7, D1, D9 and D12, their corresponding positional isomers (B8′, C7′, D1′, D9′ and D12′) were afforded, and their structures were confirmed by 2D NMR. The calcium-imaging technique was also applied to investigate the effects of compounds B2, B10, C4 and C5 on the intracellular calcium ion concentration ([Ca2+]i), which indicated that they released stored calcium ions from endoplasmic reticulum, which denoted that some compounds are potential modulators of the insect ryanodine receptor (RyR).

- New thalidomide analogues derived through Sonogashira or Suzuki reactions and their TNF expression inhibition profiles
-
A library of new thalidomide C4/5 analogues containing either a phenyl or alkyne tether were synthesized using Sonogashira or Suzuki cross coupling reactions from their aryl halogenated precursors. All thalidomide analogues were tested for their ability to inhibit the expression of the proinflammatory cytokine Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF). More explicitly the use of a novel reporter system utilizing the promoter region of the TNF gene in a human T-cell line provided a rapid and effective measure of NFκB transcriptional activity. Several compounds either containing either an aryl-isobutyl or aryl-isopropoxy group were the most effective in inhibiting TNF expression, and were several times more active than thalidomide itself. Five of the more active derivatives indicated an apoptotic response while one of these compounds, containing an aldehyde tether, showed possible influence of cell cycling effects.

- Synthesis and TNF expression inhibitory properties of new thalidomide analogues derived via Heck cross coupling
-
A library of new thalidomide analogues containing an olefin functionality were synthesised using a Heck cross coupling reaction from their aryl halogenated precursor. All analogues were tested for their ability to inhibit the synthesis of the proinflammatory cytokine Tumour Necrosis Factor (TNF). Compounds 22, 29, 33 and 37 were the most effective in this assay inhibiting TNF expression 50%, 69%, 52% and 50%, respectively. Crown Copyright

- User- and eco-friendly hypervalent iodine reagent and method of synthesis
-
The present invention is a user- and eco-friendly hypervalent iodine reagent (mIBX) capable of selectively oxidizing allylic and benzylic alcohols in water and other eco-friendly solvents and having generally the following structure: 1Allylic and benzylic alcohols are cleanly oxidized to the corresponding carbonyl compounds in water or water-THF mixtures, or other mixtures, using a water-soluble o-iodoxybenzoic acid derivative of the present invention.

- On the regioselectivity of metal hydride reductions of 3-substituted phthalic anhydrides
-
A problem of 3-methoxyphthalide reduction by metal hydrides was reinvestigated. Various effects controlling selectivity of reductions in 3-substituted phthalides were studied, and a qualitative interpretation of the results is now proposed. Methods for obtaining enhanced yields of one or the other lactonic product were developed.
