Rao, T. Srinivasa,Pandey, Pramod S.

The N-debenzylation of aromatic heterocycles such as substituted pyrroles and indoles, having functional groups like ester, amide, halo, and nitrile, by using sodium in liquid ammonia in the presence of t-BuOH at -78°C cleanly affords N-debenzylated aromatic heterocycles in good yields.
Gold(I)-Catalysed Hydroarylation of 1,3-Disubstituted Allenes with Efficient Axial-to-Point Chirality Transfer

, p. 7002 - 7009 (2018)
Hydroarylation of enantioenriched 1,3-disubstituted allenes has the potential to proceed with axial-to-point chirality transfer to yield enantioenriched allylated (hetero)aryl compounds. However, the gold-catalysed intermolecular reaction was previously reported to occur with no chirality transfer owing to competing allene racemisation. Herein, we describe the development of the first intermolecular hydroarylations of allenes to proceed with efficient chirality transfer and summarise some of the key criteria for achieving high regio- and stereoselectivity.

A palladium-catalyzed 2-alkylation of indoles with α-bromo esters is developed by employing a P,P=O ligand. The method features excellent regioselectivities, mild reaction conditions, and good functional group compatibility. The employment of the P,P=O ligand as well as 4? molecular sieves were crucial for the success of the transformation. Mechanistic studies indicate the reaction proceed through a radical pathway.
Three-component reactions of 3-arylidene-3h-indolium salts, isocyanides and amines
Nguyen, Hung M.,Golantsov, Nikita E.,Golubenkova, Alexandra S.,Rybakov, Victor B.,Voskressensky, Leonid G.
, (2021/05/26)
A multicomponent reaction of isocyanides with aryl(indol-3-yl)methylium salts and amines has been found. A series of aryl(indol-3-yl)acetimidamides was obtained in up to 96% yields. In the case of ethyl isocyanoacetate, the reaction is followed by cyclization to form 3,5-dihydro-4H-imidazol-4-one derivatives.

Aplysinopsins are a class of marine indole alkaloids that exhibit a wide range of biological activities. Although both the indole and N-benzyl moieties of aplysinopsins are known to possess antiproliferative activity against cancer cells, their mechanism of action remains unclear. Through in vitro and in vivo proliferation and viability screening of newly synthesized aplysinopsin analogs on myelogenous leukemia cell lines and zebrafish toxicity tests, as well as analysis of differential toxicity in noncancerous RPMI 1788 cells and PBMCs, we identified EE-84 as a promising novel drug candidate against chronic myeloid leukemia. This indole derivative demonstrated drug-likeness in agreement with Lipinski’s rule of five. Furthermore, EE-84 induced a senescent-like phenotype in K562 cells in line with its cytostatic effect. EE-84-treated K562 cells underwent morphological changes in line with mitochondrial dysfunction concomitant with autophagy and ER stress induction. Finally, we demonstrated the synergistic cytotoxic effect of EE-84 with a BH3 mimetic, the Mcl-1 inhibitor A-1210477, against imatinib-sensitive and resistant K562 cells, highlighting the inhibition of antiapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins as a promising novel senolytic approach against chronic myeloid leukemia.

Interest in replacing palladium catalysts with base metals resulted in the development of a 24-reaction screening platform for identifying nickel-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura reaction conditions. This method was designed to be directly applicable to process s
Synthesis of bisindolylmethane, bispyrrolylmethane, and indolylpyrrolylmethane derivatives via reductive heteroarylation
Zhou, Hang,Huang, Zhuo,Huang, He,Song, Chuanjun,Chang, Junbiao
, (2021/07/25)
An efficient and general reductive heteroarylation approach toward the synthesis of bisindolylmethane, bispyrrolylmethane, and indolylpyrrolylmethane derivatives has been developed. Thus, treatment of acylpyrrole or acylindole derivatives with indoles or pyrroles in the presence of a combination of sodium borohydride and acetic acid resulted in the formation of the title compounds in moderate to excellent isolated yields.
Nickel-catalyzed C3-alkylation of indoles with alcohols: Via a borrowing hydrogen strategy
Hu, Miao,Jiang, Yong,Sun, Nan,Hu, Baoxiang,Shen, Zhenlu,Hu, Xinquan,Jin, Liqun
, p. 10057 - 10062 (2021/06/15)
An efficient method for the Ni-catalyzed C3-alkylation of indoles using readily available alcohols as the alkylating reagents has been developed. The alkylation was addressed with an air and moisture-stable binuclear nickel complex ligated by tetrahydroquinolin-8-one as the effective pre-catalyst. The newly developed transformation could accommodate a broad substrate scope including primary/secondary benzylic and aliphatic alcohols and substituted indoles. Mechanistic studies suggested that the reaction proceeds through a borrowing hydrogen pathway.
A facile and versatile electro-reductive system for hydrodefunctionalization under ambient conditions
Huang, Binbin,Guo, Lin,Xia, Wujiong
, p. 2095 - 2103 (2021/03/26)
A general electrochemical system for reductive hydrodefunctionalization is described, employing the inexpensive and easily available triethylamine (Et3N) as a sacrificial reductant. This protocol is characterized by facile operation, sustainable conditions, and exceptionally wide substrate scope covering the cleavage of C-halogen, N-S, N-C, O-S, O-C, C-C and C-N bonds. Notably, the selectivity and capability of reduction can be conveniently switched by simple incorporation or removal of an alcohol as a co-solvent.

A nickel-catalyzed reductive decyanation of aromatic nitriles has been developed, in which the readily available and abundant ethanol was applied as the hydride donor. Various functional groups on the aromatic rings, such as alkoxyl, amino, imino and amide, were compatible in this catalytic protocol. Heteroaryl, benzylic and alkenyl nitriles were also tolerated. Mechanistic investigation indicated that ethanol provided hydride efficientlyviaβ-hydride elimination in this reductive decyanation.
