In this study, two series of 35 new chalcone derivatives containing aryl-piperazine or aryl-sulfonyl-piperazine fragment were synthesized and their structures were characterized by1H,13C and ESI-MS. The in vivo and in vitro anti-inflammatory activities of target compounds were evaluated by using classical para-xylene-induced mice ear-swelling model and ELISA assays. Furthermore, docking studies were performed in COX-2 (4PH9). The in vivo anti-inflammatory assays indicated that most of the target compounds showed significant anti-inflammatory activities. Docking results revealed that the anti-inflammatory activities of compounds correlated with their docking results. Especially, compound 6o exhibited the most potent anti-inflammatory activity in vivo with the lowest docking score of ?17.4?kcal/mol and could significantly inhibit the release of LPS-induced IL-6 and TNF-α in a dose-dependent manner in vitro.

A method for the synthesis of ketones from aldehydes and boronic acids via a transition-metal-free C?H functionalization reaction is reported. The method employs nitrosobenzene as a reagent to drive the simultaneous activation of the boronic acid as a boronate and the activation of the C?H bond of the aldehyde as an iminium species that triggers the key C?C bond-forming step via an intramolecular migration from boron to carbon. These findings constitute a practical, scalable, and operationally straightforward method for the synthesis of ketones.

Enantioselective organocatalysis has been successfully employed in combination with trifluoroborate reagents for novel organic transformations over the last decade. However, no experimental rate studies of these reactions have been reported. Herein we report Hammett plot analysis of the organocatalyzed enantioselective conjugate addition of alkenyl, aryl, and heteroaryl trifluoroborate salts to chalcone derivatives with substitution at both the β-aryl and keto-aryl positions. The rate trend for keto-aryl substitution diverges from that of boronic acid nucleophiles in that the keto-aryl substituent for trifluoroborate salts does not measurably impact reaction rate in a manner consistent with charge stabilization. In addition, variable temperature NMR in combination with quantitative thin-layer chromatography (TLC) analysis suggests that the reaction is impacted by the low solubility of the trifluoroborate salts, so particle size and stirring speed affect reaction rates.
