- Synthesis and anticancer activities of thiosemicarbazones derivatives of thiochromanones and related scaffolds
-
A series of novel thiosemicarbazone analogs (4a–t, 6a–j) were synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic activities. The obtained results showed that thiochromanone-based thiosemicarbazones substituted primarily at the C-8 position exhibited higher cytotoxicity than the corresponding 1,1-dioxo-thiochromanone-, benzothiazepine-, and 1,1-dioxo-benzothiazepine-based analogs. Significantly, compound 4c (8-fluoro thiochromanone thiosemicarbazone) was found to be the most active and exhibited potent cytotoxicity against the MCF-7, SK-mel-2, and DU145 cancer cell lines, with IC50 values of 0.42, 0.58, and 0.43 μM, respectively. In addition, the mechanism of compound 4c induced MCF-7 cell apoptosis was preliminarily investigated through cell cycle, Annexin V-FITC/PI staining, and ROS assays, indicating that compound 4c may exert its anticancer property through ROS-mediated apoptosis.

- Cu(I)-Catalyzed Enantioselective Alkynylation of Thiochromones
-
A highly efficient asymmetric synthesis of chiral thiochromanones is developed via Cu(I)/phosphoramidite catalyzed asymmetric alkynylation of thiochromones under mild reaction conditions. The catalyst system is tolerant of various thiochromone precursors and terminal alkynes. The established asymmetric transformation provides different enatiomeric-enriched thiochromanones with more molecular complexity and enables access to chiral thioflavanones, a subgroup of flavonoid by further functionalization.

- Cu-Catalyzed Conjugate Addition of Grignard Reagents to Thiochromones: An Enantioselective Pathway for Accessing 2-Alkylthiochromanones
-
The enantioselective incorporation of alkyl groups in thiochromones was realized for the first time by a Cu/(R, S)-PPF-P t Bu 2 -catalyzed conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to thiochromones. With this method, a series of 2-methylthiochromanones were obtained in good yields (up to 96% yield) with moderate-to-good ee values (up to 87% ee). The established method expedites the synthesis of a large library of chiral thiochromanones for further synthetic applications and biological studies.

- Rh-Catalyzed Conjugate Addition of Arylzinc Chlorides to Thiochromones: A Highly Enantioselective Pathway for Accessing Chiral Thioflavanones
-
A highly efficient asymmetric synthesis of chiral thioflavanones is developed via conjugate addition of arylzinc reagents to thiochromones using Rh(COD)Cl2/(R)-3,4,5-MeO-MeOBIPHEP catalyst. This method overcomes catalyst poisoning and substrate inertness and affords a series of chiral thioflavanones (2-arylthiochroman-4-ones) in good yields (up to 91% yield) with excellent ee values (up to 97% ee). The established asymmetric synthesis paves the way for further pharmaceutical studies.

- Ionic liquid catalyzed synthesis of 2-(indole-3-yl)-thiochroman-4-ones and their novel antifungal activities
-
2-(Indole-3-yl)-thiochroman-4-ones were synthesized via ionic liquid and tested for in vitro antifungal activity. The contribution of ionic liquid to Michael addition reaction is significant. Structures of all compounds are elucidated by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. Most of these compounds showed better antifungal activity than fluconazole. The results suggest that 2-(indole-3-yl)-thiochroman-4-ones would be efficient antifungal agents.

- Facile one-pot synthesis of some novel thiazolylpyrazole derivatives with antifungal activity
-
A series of novel 1-(4-phenylthiazol-2-yl)-1,4-dihydrothiochroman[ 4,3-c]pyrazole have been prepared by a three-component reaction of thiochromanone-3-carbaldehyde, phenacyl bromide, and thiosemicarbazide. The reaction was in one-pot and did not require any additional catalyst with moderate yields. This method provided several advantages such as environment friendliness and simple work-up procedure. The compounds were assayed for antifungal activity and some of the new compounds can be further utilized as lead compounds.

- Synthesis and antifungal activity of some thiazole derivatives
-
A series of some thiazole derivatives were designed and synthesized. The structure of newly synthesized compounds was characterized by HRMS, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. The synthesized compounds were evaluated against ten species of fungi in vitro by agar cup plate and micro-titration methods, respectively. The results of antifungal screening reveal that among all the compounds screened three compounds showed moderate antifungal activity. The MIC value of 3 h against two fungal strains C. neoformans and C. albicas is 8 μg mL-1 respectively. The MIC value of 3i against two fungal strains C. neoformans and T. mentagrophytes is 8 μg mL-1 and 16 μg mL-1, respectively and 3a against T. mentagrophytes is 16 μg mL-1, the MIC of others are all beyond 32 μg mL-1.

- Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of novel bisindolylalkanes analogues
-
In an effort to develop potent anti-cancer chemopreventive agents that act on topoisomerase II, a novel series of bisindolylalkanes analogues such as 3,3′-(thiochroman-4,4-diyl)bis(1H-indole) are synthesized. Structures of all compounds are elucidated by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. Anti-proliferative activities for all of these compounds are investigated by the method of MTT assay on 7 human cancer lines. Most of them showed antitumor activities in vitro, the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value is 7.798 μg/mL of 3a against MCF7. Compound 3a showed comparable topoisomerase II inhibitory activity to etoposide (VP-16) at 100 μM concentration. The rest of the compounds also showed varying degree topoisomerase II inhibitory activity.
