- An alternative route for boron phenoxide preparation from arylboronic acid and its application for C[sbnd]O bond formation
-
An efficient synthetic route to benzyl phenyl ether preparation has been successfully developed via a one-pot synthetic protocol utilizing a combination of arylboronic acids, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and benzyl halides. The whole procedure consists of two consecutive reactions, formation of boron phenoxide from arylboronic acids and its nucleophilic attack. A simple operation under mild conditions such as room-temperature ionic liquid (choline hydroxide), aerobic environment, and absence of metal- and base-catalysts has been employed. Expansion to utilize benzyl surrogates was also successfully accomplished.

- Choline Hydroxide as a Versatile Medium for Catalyst-Free O-Functionalization of Phenols
-
A versatile synthetic protocol for benzyl phenyl ether preparation via O-alkylation of phenolic oxygen with readily available benzyl derivatives was demonstrated. The newly designed procedure was carried out using an eco-friendly medium, room-temperature ionic liquid (choline hydroxide), under metal- and base-catalyst-free aerobic conditions. The reaction platform was also successfully applied to phenol protection strategy.

- Potassium tert-Butoxide-Mediated Condensation Cascade Reaction: Transition Metal-Free Synthesis of Multisubstituted Aryl Indoles and Benzofurans
-
An efficient and facile method to synthesize valuable disubstituted 2-aryl indoles and benzofurans in good yields has been demonstrated, based on a tert-butoxide-mediated condensation reaction involving a vinyl sulfoxide intermediate. Products are obtained from N- or O-benzyl benzaldehydes using dimethyl sulfoxide as a carbon source. The methodology features a wide functional group tolerance and transition metal-free environment. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction involves a tandem aldol reaction/Michael addition/dehydrosulfenylation/isomerization sequence through an ionic protocol.

- Inhibition of Ebola virus infection: Identification of niemann-pick C1 as the target by optimization of a chemical probe
-
A high-throughput screen identified adamantane dipeptide 1 as an inhibitor of Ebola virus (EboV) infection. Hit-to-lead optimization to determine the structure-activity relationship (SAR) identified the more potent EboV inhibitor 2 and a photoaffinity labeling agent 3. These antiviral compounds were employed to identify the target as Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1), a host protein that binds the EboV glycoprotein and is essential for infection. These studies establish NPC1 as a promising target for antiviral therapy.
