Novel 1,2,4-triazole analogues as mushroom tyrosinase inhibitors: synthesis, kinetic mechanism, cytotoxicity and computational studies
We have created a novel series of mushroom tyrosinase inhibitors with 1,2,4-triazole as fundamental skeleton. The target compound 1,2,4-triazol-3-ylthio)-N-phenyl acetamide derivatives 9(a–l) were synthesized by the reaction of 4- and 5-substituted 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol derivatives 6(a–c) with 2-chloro-N-sub/un-substituted phenyl acetamide derivatives 8(a–d) under basic condition. By using the analytical techniques for instance, FTIR, LC–MS, 1H NMR and 13C NMR, the structural verification was evaluated. The novel series of the target compounds 9(a–l) has been scanned for biological activity (mushroom tyrosinase inhibition potential) which demonstrates adequate results. Interestingly, compound 9k (IC50 = 0.0048 ± 0.0016?μM) exhibits 3500 times more activity compared with standard drug kojic acid (IC50 = 16.8320 ± 1.1600?μM) against mushroom tyrosinase inhibitor. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity experiment was carried out for the highly effective target compounds (9d, 9i, 9j and 9k) by using MTT assay method for A375 human melanoma cells to define the nontoxic performance of the most effective compounds ranging from 1 to 25?μM. Furthermore, the molecular docking study delivers the thought concerning the interface of the ligand with an enzyme. Also, the dynamic simulation was accomplished for compound 9k to govern the plausible binding model.

Discovery of novel N-benzylbenzamide derivatives as tubulin polymerization inhibitors with potent antitumor activities
A series of novel N-benzylbenzamide derivatives were designed and synthesized as tubulin polymerization inhibitors. Among fifty-one target compounds, compound 20b exhibited significant antiproliferative activities with IC50 values ranging from 12 to 27 nM against several cancer cell lines, and possessed good plasma stability and satisfactory physicochemical properties. Mechanism studies demonstrated that 20b bound to the colchicine binding site and displayed potent anti-vascular activity. Notably, the corresponding disodium phosphate 20b-P exhibited an excellent safety profile with the LD50 value of 599.7 mg/kg (i.v. injection), meanwhile, it significantly inhibited tumor growth and decreased microvessel density in liver cancer cell H22 allograft mouse model without obvious toxicity. Collectively, 20b and 20b-P are novel promising anti-tubulin agents with more druggable properties and deserve to be further investigated for cancer therapy.

Design, synthesis, in vitro and in vivo evaluation against MRSA and molecular docking studies of novel pleuromutilin derivatives bearing 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole linker
A class of pleuromutilin derivatives containing 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole were designed and synthesized as potential antibacterial agents against Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The ultrasound-assisted reaction was proposed as a green chemistry method to synthesize 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole derivatives (intermediates 85–110). Among these pleuromutilin derivatives, compound 133 was found to be the strongest antibacterial derivative against MRSA (MIC = 0.125 μg/mL). Furthermore, the result of the time-kill curves displayed that compound 133 could inhibit the growth of MRSA in vitro quickly (- 4.36 log10 CFU/mL reduction). Then, compound 133 (- 1.82 log10 CFU/mL) displayed superior in vivo antibacterial efficacy than tiamulin (- 0.82 log10 CFU/mL) in reducing MRSA load in mice thigh model. Besides, compound 133 exhibited low cytotoxicity to RAW 264.7 cells. Molecular docking studies revealed that compound 133 was successfully localized in the binding pocket of 50S ribosomal subunit (ΔGb = -10.50 kcal/mol). The results indicated that these pleuromutilin derivatives containing 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole might be further developed into novel antibiotics against MRSA.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of honokiol derivatives bearing 3-((5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methyl)oxazol-2(3h)-ones as potential viral entry inhibitors against sars-cov-2
The 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus infection has posed a serious danger to global health and the economy. However, SARS-CoV-2 medications that are specific and effective are still being developed. Honokiol is a bioactive component from Magnoliae officinalis Cortex with damp-drying effect. To develop new potent antiviral molecules, a series of novel honokiol analogues were synthesized by introducing various 3-((5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methyl)oxazol-2(3H)-ones to its molecule. In a SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus model, all honokiol derivatives were examined for their antiviral entry activities. As a result, 6a and 6p demonstrated antiviral entry effect with IC50 values of 29.23 and 9.82 μM, respectively. However, the parental honokiol had a very weak antiviral activity with an IC50 value more than 50 μM. A biolayer interfero-metry (BLI) binding assay and molecular docking study revealed that 6p binds to human ACE2 protein with higher binding affinity and lower binding energy than the parental honokiol. A competitive ELISA assay confirmed the inhibitory effect of 6p on SARS-CoV-2 spike RBD’s binding with ACE2. Importantly, 6a and 6p (TC50 > 100 μM) also had higher biological safety for host cells than honokiol (TC50 of 48.23 μM). This research may contribute to the discovery of potential viral entrance inhibitors for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, although 6p’s antiviral efficacy needs to be validated on SARS-CoV-2 viral strains in a biosafety level 3 facility.

Development of Novel (+)-Nootkatone Thioethers Containing 1,3,4-Oxadiazole/Thiadiazole Moieties as Insecticide Candidates against Three Species of Insect Pests
To improve the insecticidal activity of (+)-nootkatone, a series of 42 (+)-nootkatone thioethers containing 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole moieties were prepared to evaluate their insecticidal activities against Mythimna separata Walker, Myzus persicae Sulzer, and Plutella xylostella Linnaeus. Insecticidal evaluation revealed that most of the title derivatives exhibited more potent insecticidal activities than the precursor (+)-nootkatone after the introduction of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole on (+)-nootkatone. Among all of the (+)-nootkatone derivatives, compound 8c (1 mg/mL) exhibited the best growth inhibitory (GI) activity against M. separata with a final corrected mortality rate (CMR) of 71.4%, which was 1.54- and 1.43-fold that of (+)-nootkatone and toosendanin, respectively; 8c also displayed the most potent aphicidal activity against M. persicae with an LD50 value of 0.030 μg/larvae, which was closer to that of the commercial insecticidal etoxazole (0.026 μg/larvae); and 8s showed the best larvicidal activity against P. xylostella with an LC50 value of 0.27 mg/mL, which was 3.37-fold that of toosendanin and slightly higher than that of etoxazole (0.28 mg/mL). Furthermore, the control efficacy of 8s against P. xylostella in the pot experiments under greenhouse conditions was better than that of etoxazole. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) revealed that in most cases, the introduction of 1,3,4-oxadiazole/thiadiazole containing halophenyl groups at the C-13 position of (+)-nootkatone could obtain more active derivatives against M. separata, M. persicae, and P. xylostella than those containing other groups. In addition, toxicity assays indicated that these (+)-nootkatone derivatives had good selectivity to insects over nontarget organisms (normal mammalian NRK-52E cells and C. idella and N. denticulata fries) with relatively low toxicity. Therefore, the above results indicate that these (+)-nootkatone derivatives could be further explored as new lead compounds for the development of potential eco-friendly pesticides.

Design, Synthesis, and Study of the Insecticidal Activity of Novel Steroidal 1,3,4-Oxadiazoles
A series of novel steroidal derivatives with a substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole structure was designed and synthesized, and the target compounds were evaluated for their insecticidal activity against five aphid species. Most of the tested compounds exhibited potent insecticidal activity against Eriosoma lanigerum (Hausmann), Myzus persicae, and Aphis citricola. Compounds 20g and 24g displayed the highest activity against E. lanigerum, showing LC50 values of 27.6 and 30.4 μg/mL, respectively. Ultrastructural changes in the midgut cells of E. lanigerum were detected by transmission electron microscopy, indicating that these steroidal oxazole derivatives might exert their insecticidal activity by destroying the mitochondria and nuclear membranes in insect midgut cells. Furthermore, a field trial showed that compound 20g exhibited effects similar to those of the positive controls chlorpyrifos and thiamethoxam against E. lanigerum, reaching a control rate of 89.5% at a dose of 200 μg/mL after 21 days. We also investigated the hydrolysis and metabolism of the target compounds in E. lanigerum by assaying the activities of three insecticide-detoxifying enzymes. Compound 20g at 50 μg/mL exhibited inhibitory action on carboxylesterase similar to the known inhibitor triphenyl phosphate. The above results demonstrate the potential of these steroidal oxazole derivatives to be developed as novel pesticides.

A visible-light-photocatalytic water-splitting strategy for sustainable hydrogenation/deuteration of aryl chlorides
Hydrogenation/deuteration of carbon chloride (C?Cl) bonds is of high significance but remains a remarkable challenge in synthetic chemistry, especially using safe and inexpensive hydrogen donors. In this article, a visible-light-photocatalytic watersplitting hydrogenation technology (WSHT) is proposed to in-situ generate active H-species (i.e., Had) for controllable hydrogenation of aryl chlorides instead of using flammable H2. When applying heavy water-splitting systems, we could selectively install deuterium at the C?Cl position of aryl chlorides under mild conditions for the sustainable synthesis of high-valued added deuterated chemicals. Sub-micrometer Pd nanosheets (Pd NSs) decorated crystallined polymeric carbon nitrides (CPCN) is developed as the bifunctional photocatalyst, whereas Pd NSs not only serve as a cocatalyst of CPCN to generate and stabilize H (D)-species but also play a significant role in the sequential activation and hydrogenation/deuteration of C?Cl bonds. This article highlights a photocatalytic-WSHT for controllable hydrogenation/deuteration of low-cost aryl chlorides, providing a promising way for the photosynthesis of high-valued added chemicals instead of the hydrogen evolution.

Oxidative Esterification of Aldehydes and Alcohols Catalyzed by Camphor-Based Imidazolium Salts
Abstract: Sixteen new camphor-based imidazolium salts have been synthesized with renewable camphorsulfonic acid as the starting material. The chemical shifts of the characteristic proton of C2 on the imidazolium ring (N?C=N) were discussed thoroughly and all of these imidazolium salts exhibit good thermal stability. Furthermore, the excellent catalytic performance of the synthesized imidazolium salts were observed in the oxidative esterification between aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes containing electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups on aromatic ring and primary or secondary alcohol by air as the sole oxidant.

Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of new prenylated 2-pyrone derivatives
A series of new monoprenylated and diprenylated 2-pyrone derivatives with different halogen substituents were synthesized from the corresponding 6-aryl-4-hydroxy-2-pyrones by prenylation reactions. The compounds were evaluated for antibacterial activity and displayed significant in vitro activity with the highest activity shown by the monoprenylated 6-aryl-2-pyrones. All the compounds except the bromine-containing analogs were active against one or more tested bacteria, with Escherichia coli being the most susceptible of the test organisms. With the remarkable antibacterial activity of eight of the compounds against a drug-resistant β-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae, a synergistic evaluation between each of these compounds and ampicillin was undertaken. Out of the eight combinations studied, synergistic effects were observed with two compounds, 4-(3-methylbut-2-enoxy)-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-one and 6-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(3-methylbut-2-enoxy)-2H-pyran-2-one. Both compounds, at half the individual MIC values, were able to lower the MIC of ampicillin in combinations from 2500 to 2.4 μg/mL (1/1041 of MIC).

In this work, a series of the rhodamine 6G based derivatives 5a-5g, were synthesized. The structural framework of the synthesized compounds was established by using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, and LC-MS analytical methods. The spectroscopic properties of the target compounds were determined by using absorption and fluorescence study in four different solvents. Furthermore, the synthesized derivatives were assessed for in-vitro screening against jack bean urease inhibition and in-silico molecular docking study. The result reveals that all the compounds exhibit good urease inhibitory activity against this enzyme but among the series, the compound 5a & 5c with an IC50 values of 0.1108 ± 0.0038 μM and 0.1136 ± 0.0295 μM shows to be most auspicious inhibitory activity compared to a standard drug (Thiourea) having IC50 value 4.7201 ± 0.0546 μM. Subsequently, the molecular docking experiment was analysed to distinguish the enzyme-inhibitor binding interaction.

Design and synthesis of new norfloxacin-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrids as antibacterial agents against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
Toward the search of new antibacterial agents to control methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a class of new norfloxacin-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrids were designed and synthesized. Antibacterial activities against drug-sensitive bacteria S. aureus and clinical drug resistant isolates of MRSA were evaluated. Compound 5k exhibited excellent antibacterial activities against S. aureus (MIC: 2 μg/mL) and MRSA1–3 (MIC: 0.25–1 μg/mL). The time-kill kinetics demonstrated that compound 5k had an advantage over commonly used antibiotics vancomycin in killing S. aureus and MRSA. Moreover, compound 5k could inhibit the bacteria and destroy their membranes in a short time, and showed very low cytotoxicity to NRK-52E cells. Some interesting structure-activity relationships (SARs) were also discussed. These results indicated that these norfloxacin-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrids could be further developed into new antibacterial agents against MRSA.

Regiospecific ortho-C?H Allylation of Benzoic Acids
A carboxylate-directed ortho-C?H functionalization has been developed and it allows the regiospecific introduction of allyl residues to benzoic acids. In the presence of a [Ru(p-cymene)Cl2]2 and K3PO4, benzoic acids react with allyl acetates at only 50 °C to give the corresponding ortho-allylbenzoic acids. The protocol is generally applicable to both electron-rich and electron-poor benzoic acids in combination with linear and branched allyl acetates. The products can be further functionalized in situ, for example, by double-bond migration, lactonization, or decarboxylation.

Noncovalent Interactions in Ir-Catalyzed C-H Activation: L-Shaped Ligand for Para-Selective Borylation of Aromatic Esters
An efficient strategy for the para-selective borylation of aromatic esters is described. For achieving high para-selectivity, a new catalytic system has been developed modifying the core structure of the bipyridine. It has been proposed that the L-shaped ligand is essential to recognize the functionality of the oxygen atom of the ester carbonyl group via noncovalent interaction, which provides an unprecedented controlling factor for para-selective C-H activation/borylation.

Design, synthesis, biological evaluation, and 3D-QSAR analysis of podophyllotoxin–dioxazole combination as tubulin targeting anticancer agents
The advancement of cancer-fighting drugs has never been a simple linear process. Those drug design professionals begin to find inspiration from the nature after failing to find the ideal products by creative drug design and high-throughput screening. To obtain new molecules for inhibiting tubulin, podophyllotoxin was adopted as the leading compound and 1,3,4-oxadiazole was brought in to the C-4 site of podophyllotoxin in this research. A series of seventeen podophyllotoxin-derived esters have been achieved and then evaluated their antitumor activities against four different cancer cell lines: A549, MCF-7, HepG2, and HeLa. Among all the compounds, compound 7c showed the best antiproliferating properties with IC50?=?2.54?±?0.82?μm against MCF-7 cancer cell line. It was obvious that the content of ROS grew significantly in MCF-7 in a way depending on the dosage. The time- and dose-dependent cell cycle assays revealed that compound 7c could apparently block cell cycle in the phase of G2/M along with the upregulation of cyclin A2 and CDK2 protein. According to further studies, confocal microscopy experiment has certified that compound 7c could restrain cancer from growing by blocking the polymerization of microtubule. Meanwhile, compound 7c could be ideally integrated with the colchicine site of tubulin. In future, it would be feasible to selectively design tubulin inhibitors with the help of 3D-QSAR. This means that it is hopeful to develop compound 7c as a potential agent against cancer due to its biological characteristics.

Electrolysis of trichloromethylated organic compounds under aerobic conditions catalyzed by the B12 model complex for ester and amide formation
The electrolysis of benzotrichloride at -0.9 V vs. Ag/AgCl in the presence of the B12 model complex, heptamethyl cobyrinate perchlorate, in ethanol under aerobic conditions using an undivided cell equipped with a platinum mesh cathode and a zinc plate anode produced ethylbenzoate in 56% yield with 92% selectivity. The corresponding esters were obtained when the electrolysis was carried out in various alcohols such as methanol, n-propanol, and i-propanol. Benzoyl chloride was detected by GC-MS during the electrolysis as an intermediate for the ester formation. When the electrolysis was carried out under anaerobic conditions, partially dechlorinated products, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloro-1,2-diphenylethane and 1,2-dichlorostilibenes (E and Z forms), were obtained instead of an ester. ESR spin-trapping experiments using 5,5,-dimethylpyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) revealed that the corresponding oxygen-centered radical and carbon-centered radical were steadily generated during the electrolyses under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, respectively. Applications of the aerobic electrolysis to various organic halides, such as substituted benzotrichlorides, are described. Furthermore, the formation of amides with moderate yields by the aerobic electrolysis of benzotrichloride catalyzed by the B12 model complex in the presence of amines in acetonitrile is reported.

N′-((2-(6-bromo-2-oxo-2 H -chromen-3-yl)-1 H -indol-3-yl)methylene)benzohydrazide as a probable Bcl-2/Bcl-xL inhibitor with apoptotic and anti-metastatic potential
A wide number of marketed drugs and drug candidates in cancer clinical development contain halogen substituents. The aim of the present study was to synthesize a series of halogen incorporated indole-coumarin hybrid schiff bases - N′-((2-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)benzohydrazides and to investigate their apoptotic and anti-migratory potential in human breast adenocarcinoma cells as well as to examine their Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL protein binding ability via in silico docking. Hybrid 5g with a bromine atom in position-7 of coumarin ring displayed significant dose dependent cytotoxic activity with high selectivity to MCF-7 cells in MTT assay. Cell cycle progression analysis of 5g treated cells using flow cytometer exhibited a cell cycle arrest in the S phase and accumulation of cells in the subG1 phase. The apoptotic mode of cell death induced by 5g was further confirmed by Annexin-V staining assay. The wound healing assay revealed a profound impairment in the migration of MCF-7 cells presumably due to down-regulation of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL proteins induced by 5g as observed in immunoblotting analysis. SAR studies of these hybrid molecules based on cell viability and docking were also probed. The most active pharmacophore 5g was found to bind favourably to Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL in docking simulation analysis suggesting it to be a probable small molecule Bcl-2/Bcl-xL inhibitor and a potential lead for breast cancer chemotherapy with apoptotic and anti-metastatic properties.

Design, synthesis, pharmacological evaluation and molecular docking studies of substituted oxadiazolyl-2-oxoindolinylidene propane hydrazide derivatives
The manuscript describes design and synthesis of novel oxadiazolyl-2-oxoindolinylidene propane hydrazides as amide tethered hybrids of indole and oxadiazole and their evaluation for antiinflammatory and analgesic activity. The compounds were synthesized following five step reaction to yield fifteen derivatives as 3-(5-substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-N′-[2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3Hindol-3-ylidene]propane hydrazides. The final derivatives 3-[5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]-N′-[2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-indol-3-ylidene]propane hydrazide and 3-[5-(4-methylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]-N′-[2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-indol-3-ylidene]propane hydrazide were found to be highly promising molecules with severity index of 0.35 and 0.56, respectively, which is promising for an analgesic compound. The hydroxy and methyl substitution on phenyl ring system provided with active anti-inflammatory compounds having increase in reaction time of 84.11 and 83.17percent, respectively compared to standard drug at 85.84percent. Molecular docking studies exhibit comparable interaction with synthesized derivatives and standard drug having a dock score of -4.44 by the K-nearest neighbour genetic algorithm method.

Chemistry and antioxidant properties of titanium(IV) complexes
Abstract The synthesis of titanium(IV) complexes with biologically active hydrazide ligands has been carried out. The complexes were characterized by spectroscopic methods (IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR), elemental analysis and conductivity studies. These studies suggest bidentate coordination of the ligands through carbonyl oxygen and primary amine nitrogen, resulting in octahedral geometries. Hydrazides with pyridyl substituents displayed 1:2 metal-to-ligand ratio, and hydrazides with imino substituents exhibited 1:3 metal-to-ligand ratio resulting in an outer sphere complex. The remaining complexes displayed inner sphere coordination with 1:1 metal-to-ligand ratio. These complexes exhibit varying degrees of radical scavenging properties against DPPH, superoxide and nitric oxide free radicals. The free ligands showed inhibition against DPPH but were inactive against superoxide and nitric oxide free radicals. The structure-activity relationships of the complexes are discussed.

Synthesis and Biological Activity of Some Novel Aryl-Substituted 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Mannich Bases Containing Pyrimidine Rings
A series of novel Mannich base derivatives (E1-E15) of 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione with substituted pyrimidine were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H-NMR. The antifungal activities of these compounds were also originally studied. The results showed that most of the title compounds exhibited relatively good fungicidal activities. Especially compounds E8 and E13 showed better antifungal activity than comparison compound hymexazol. The relationship of structure and activity revealed that the presence of the methyl group at four and six positions of pyrimidine ring remarkably enhanced the antifungal activity of title compounds.

Synthesis of novel triazoles and a tetrazole of escitalopram as cholinesterase inhibitors
A novel serie of escitalopram triazoles (60-88) and a tetrazole (89) have been synthesized and subjected to a study to establish the inhibitory potential of these compounds toward acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Some selectivity in inhibition has been observed. The 4-chlorophenyl- (75, IC50, 6.71 ± 0.25 μM) and 2-methylphenyl- (70, IC50, 9.52 ± 0.23 μM) escitalopram triazole derivatives depicted high AChE inhibition, while 2-fluorophenyl- (76, IC50 = 4.52 ± 0.17 μM) and 4-fluorophenyl- (78, IC50 = 5.31 ± 0.43 μM) have found to be excellent BChE inhibitors. It has also been observed that ortho, meta and para substituted electron donating groups increase the inhibition, while electron withdrawing groups reduce the inhibition. Docking analyses of inhibitors with AChE have depicted the binding energies for 70 and 75 as ΔGbind -6.42 and -6.93 kcal/mol, respectively, while ligands 76 and 78 have shown the binding affinity ΔGbind -9.04 and -8.51 kcal/mol, respectively, for BChE.

Novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether derivatives targeting thymidylate synthase as dual anticancer/antimicrobial agents
A series of novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether derivatives (compounds 9-44) were designed and synthesized as potential inhibitors of thymidylate synthase (TS) and as anticancer agents. The in vitro anticancer activities of these compounds were evaluated against three cancer cell lines by the MTT method. Among all the designed compounds, compound 18 bearing a nitro substituent exhibited more potent in vitro anticancer activities with IC50 values of 0.7 ± 0.2, 30.0 ± 1.2, 18.3 ± 1.4 μM, respectively, which was superior to the positive control. In the further study, it was identified as the most potent inhibitor against two kinds of TS protein (for human TS and Escherichia coli TS, IC50 values: 0.62 and 0.47 μM, respectively) in the TS inhibition assay in vitro and the most potent antibacterial agents with MIC (minimum inhibitory concentrations) of 1.56-3.13 μg/mL against the tested four bacterial strains. Molecular docking and 3D-QSAR study supported that compound 18 can be selected as dual antitumor/antibacterial candidate in the future study.

Ligand free palladium catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling of aryl halides with oxalate monoester salts
Ligand free Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling of potassium oxalate monoester and derivatives with aryl iodides and bromides is described. Functionalized aromatic esters can be efficiently synthesized via this method with only 1.0 mol % Pd(OAc)2 catalyst without any phosphine ligand. This method illustrates an inexpensive and operationally simple method for the preparation of aromatic esters and acids, which is especially beneficial for a large scale synthesis.

Chemical synthesis, in vitro acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) inhibition, herbicidal activity, and computational studies of isatin derivatives
Acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) catalyzes the first common step in the biosynthesis of the branched-chain amino acids. As a result of its metabolic importance in plants, it is a target for many commercial herbicides. Virtual screening analysis inspired the evaluation of 19 commercially available isatin analogues and 13 newly synthesized isatin derivatives as novel AHAS inhibitors and for their herbicidal activity. The best compound demonstrated 95% inhibition of the activity of Arabidopsis thaliana AHAS at a concentration of 100 mg L-1, whereas the herbicidal activities of three compounds reached 50% inhibition at a concentration of 10 mg L-1 using the rape root growth test. CoMFA contour models were established to understand the structure-activity relationships for this class of AHAS inhibitor. The compounds were docked to the active site cavity of A. thaliana AHAS using FlexX, and the dominant binding mode was consistent with frontier molecular orbital from DFT calculations. This is the first comprehensive study of isatin derivatives as AHAS inhibitors and provides a valuable starting point for the design of new herbicides.

Synthesis, biological evaluation, and molecular docking studies of 2-chloropyridine derivatives possessing 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety as potential antitumor agents
A series of new 2-chloropyridine derivatives possessing 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety were synthesized. Antiproliferative assay results indicated that compounds 6o and 6u exhibited the most potent activity against gastric cancer cell SGC-7901, which was more potent than the positive control. Especially, compound 6o exhibited significant telomerase inhibitory activity (IC 50 = 2.3 ± 0.07 μM), which was comparable to the positive control ethidium bromide. Docking simulation was performed to position compound 6o into the active site of telomerase (3DU6) to determine the probable binding model.

Palladium-catalyzed oxidative carbonylation of alkyl and aryl indium reagents with CO under mild conditions
CO now can react with organoindium reagents. A novel palladium-catalyzed oxidative carbonylation reaction of organoindium reagents by CO gas with desyl chloride as oxidant was developed in supplementation with the classical methods for preparation of carboxylic acid derivatives. Primary, secondary alkyl indium reagents with β-hydrogens and aryl indium reagents were suitable substrates, and the reaction could be carried out at 60°C under 50 psi CO. Carbonylation of alkyl indium reagents can occur smoothly without additional base. Although the indium reagents were prepared from corresponding Grignard reagents (at low temperature), they displayed full compatibility with various functional groups under the protic reaction conditions. Preliminary mechanistic studies including stoichiometric and catalytic reaction examination provided evidence to support the operation of the mechanism consisted of oxidative addition of deslyl chloride to Pd(0) and quick tautomerization to give a palladium enolate species II (ROPdCl), displacement of the enolate group in II by R2OH, followed by CO insertion to give alkoxycarbonyl palladium complex V, which undergoes transmetalation with R13ln and reductive elimination to afford the product and a Pd(0) species. In this mechanism, the alkoxycarbonyl group was transferred to the palladium center prior to the alkyl group, different from traditional ways initiated from oxidative addition of alkyl halides to a Pd(0) species.

Carboxylation and esterification of functionalized arylcopper reagents
Functionalized arylcopper reagents have been produced in good yields at 25 °C from activated copper and the corresponding functionalized aryl iodides without the need of traditional organolithium or Grignard precursors. These organocopper compounds will undergo carboxylation with CO2 to form the corresponding copper benzoates. In turn, these salts can be acidified to produce the functionalized aryl acids or treated with appropriate alkyl halides in the presence of a dipolar aprotic solvent to generate the corresponding aryl esters. This methodology permits the formation of functionalized organic acids and esters that could not be generated by the carboxylation of organomagnesium compounds.

Tandem Wolff rearrangement-'tert-amino effect' sequence: Synthesis of 2-oxoindolinium enolate derivatives
The thermolysis of 1-diazo-2-oxo-(2-N,N-disubstituted aminophenyl)ethylphosphonates 1 gave rise to 2-oxoindolinium enolate derivatives 4 through Wolff rearrangement and interaction of the tert-amino moiety with the ketene functionality. Variable amounts of either ammonium ylides 5 or of products resulting from their transformations were also formed during the course of the reaction. If the amino moiety was substituted by a benzyl or an allyl group, indolinones, resulting from [1,3] or [1,2] benzylic or allylic shifts, were isolated in place of compounds 4 and 5.
