- Ruthenium-catalyzed intramolecular arene C(sp2)-H amidation for synthesis of 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1 H)-ones
-
We report the [Ru(p-cymene)(l-proline)Cl] ([Ru1])-catalyzed cyclization of 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones to form dihydroquinoline-2-ones in excellent yields with excellent regioselectivity via a formal intramolecular arene C(sp2)-H amidation. The reactions of the 2- and 4-substituted aryl dioxazolones proceeds initially through spirolactamization via electrophilic amidation at the arene site, which is para or ortho to the substituent. A Hammett correlation study showed that the spirolactamization is likely to occur by electrophilic nitrenoid attack at the arene, which is characterized by a negative ρ value of -0.73.

- Carboxy Group as a Remote and Selective Chelating Group for C?H Activation of Arenes
-
The first example of carboxy group assisted, remote-selective C(sp2)?H activation with a PdII catalyst has been developed and proceeds through a possible κ2 coordination of the carboxy group, thus suppressing the ortho-C?H activation through κ1 coordination. Besides meta-C?H olefination, direct meta-arylation of hydrocinnamic acid derivatives with low-cost aryl iodides has been achieved for the first time. These findings may motivate the exploration of novel reactivities of the carboxy assisted C?H activation reactions with intriguing selectivities.

A range of Rh(III)-catalyzed ortho-C-H functionalizations have been developed; however, extension of this reactivity to remote C-H functionalizations through large-ring rhodacyclic intermediates has yet to be demonstrated. Herein we report the first examp

- Facile synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular docking studies of novel substituted azole derivatives
-
In this study, we synthesized the series of novel azole derivatives and evaluated for enzyme inhibition assays, corresponding kinetic analysis and molecular modeling. Among the investigated bioassays, the oxadiazole derivatives 4a-k were found potent α-glucosidase inhibitors while the Schiff base derivatives 7a-k exhibited considerable potential toward urease inhibition. The inhibition kinetics for the most active compounds were analyzed by the Lineweaver–Burk plots to investigate the possible binding modes of the synthesized compounds toward the tested proteins. Moreover, the detailed docking studies were performed on the synthesized library of 4a-k and 7a-k to study the molecular interaction and binding mode in the active site of the modeled yeast α-glucosidase and Jack Bean Urease, respectively. It could be inferred from docking results that theoretical studies are in close agreement to that of the experimental results. The structure of one of the compound 7k was characterized by the single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis in order to find out the predominant conformation of the molecules.

- An investigation into the electrophilic cyclisation of N-acyl-pyrrolidinium ions: A facile synthesis of Pyrrolo-tetrahydroisoquinolones and Pyrrolo-benzazepinones
-
The triflic acid-mediated cyclisation of N-arylmethyl- and N-arylethyl-acylpyrrolidinium ions gave moderate to good yields of pyrrolo-tetrahydroisoquinolones and pyrrolo-benzazepinones respectively. Electron-donating R substituents enhanced the rate of reaction and gave higher yields than electron-withdrawing substituents. Substituents on the methyl or ethyl chain in general enhanced the reaction, unless sterically encumbered. The equivalent acylpiperidinium ions cyclised much slower and in lower yield.

- 3-(Arylacetylamino)-N-methylbenzamides: A novel class of selective anti-Helicobacter pylori agents
-
After chemical modification preceded by the random screening of our chemical library, a novel class of selective anti-Helicobacter pylori agents was generated. Consequently, the 3-(arylacetylamino)-N-methylbenzamides, which were quite easy to prepare, showed potent inhibitory activity against Helicobacter pylori but exhibited no inhibitory activity against other sorts of bacteria and fungi, e.g., Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacteroides fragilis, and Candida albicans. These compounds showed potent anti-H. pylori activity under acidic conditions, whereas amoxicillin and clarithromycin decreased activity. The 3-(3-arylpropionylamino)-N-methylbenzamides, 3-(aryloxyacetylamino)-N-methylbenzamides, and (3-methylcarbamoylphenyl)carbamic acid 1-arylmethyl esters also exhibited potent anti-H. pylori activity. Finally, we selected 7n (BAS-118) as a candidate compound for further evaluation.

- Dynamic equilibria in the products of intramolecular buchner additions of diazoketones to aryl rings bearing methoxy substituents
-
Rhodium carboxylate catalyzed aromatic addition reactions of a range of diazoketones bearing methoxy-substituted aryl rings have been explored. While the existence of norcaradiene-cycloheptatriene equilibria in related compounds is well established, the aromatic addition products in this study display more complex dynamic equilibria due to conjugation with the methoxy group; the experimental evidence for this is discussed in detail. In the azulenone products 21-26 derived from p-methoxy-substituted diazoketones 14-16, the diastereomers interconvert via a spiro intermediate 39. A related mechanistic process in the azulenones 43-46 derived from the o-methoxy-substituted diazoketones 17, 18 interconverts regioisomers, explaining the conflicting reports for the regioselectivity of the cyclization of diazoketone 1. With the m-methoxy-substituted diazoketone 19, involvement of the methoxy group through a different pathway results in fragmentation of the azulenone to form the tetralone 47. With the azulenones 21-26 exclusive trapping of the norcaradiene associated with the less thermodynamically stable diastereomers in a cycloadduct with N-phenylmaleimide is observed. Due to the presence of the activating methoxy substituent on the aromatic ring, the aromatic addition reactions of the diazoketones studied were not very sensitive to the nature of the rhodium catalyst.

- 2-Amido-8-methoxytetralins: A Series of Nonindolic Melatonin-like Agents
-
A series of unsubstituted and methoxy-substituted 2-amidotetralins (4a-q) was prepared and evaluated for their ability to complete for 2-iodomelatonin binding to chicken retinal membranes and for their potency to inhibit the calcium-dependent release of dopamine from rabbit retina.The lead compound, 2-acetamido-8-methoxytetralin (4j), showed a moderate affinity (Ki = 46 nM) and potency (IC50 = 1.4 nM) at the melatonin receptor.The structural requirements necessary for optimal agonistic activity at the melatonin receptor are as follows.First, the amido group, which should have a small, nonbranched alkyl group, is essential for affinity, and second, the methoxy substituent at the 8-position of the 2-amidotetralin ring is essential for optimal agonistic activity at the melatonin receptor.We concluded that this series of unsubstituted and methoxy-substituted 2-amidotetralins constitutes a class of nonindolic melatonin-like agents that can be used as pharmacological tools to further characterize melatonin receptors and to elucidate the mode of action of melatonin.

- STUDIES ON OXYGEN HETEROCYCLES PART-1 : ACID CATALYSED AND PHOTOCHEMICAL REACTIONS OF SOME ARYLDIAZOKETONES

Trifluoroacetic acid catalysed reaction of 2-methoxyphenyldiazomethylketone (4a), 2-acetoxyphenyldiazomethylketone (4b) and 3-(2-anisyl)-α-diazo-2-propanone (11) leads to the formation of coumaranone (6) and 3-chromanone (12), while 4-(2-anisyl)-α-diazo-2-butanone (16) affords benzo-1-oxepan-3-one (17) and 5-methoxy-2-tetralone (18) in moderate yield.The photochemical decomposition of the said diazoketones (4a, 11 and 16) gave products depending on the length of the side chain present in the substrates.
