- Novel hybrid conjugates with dual estrogen receptor α degradation and histone deacetylase inhibitory activities for breast cancer therapy
-
Hormone therapy targeting estrogen receptors is widely used clinically for the treatment of breast cancer, such as tamoxifen, but most of them are partial agonists, which can cause serious side effects after long-term use. The use of selective estrogen receptor down-regulators (SERDs) may be an effective alternative to breast cancer therapy by directly degrading ERα protein to shut down ERα signaling. However, the solely clinically used SERD fulvestrant, is low orally bioavailable and requires intravenous injection, which severely limits its clinical application. On the other hand, double- or multi-target conjugates, which are able to synergize antitumor activity by different pathways, thus may enhance therapeutic effect in comparison with single targeted therapy. In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of novel dual-functional conjugates targeting both ERα degradation and histone deacetylase inhibiton by combining a privileged SERD skeleton 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane sulfonamide (OBHSA) with a histone deacetylase inhibitor side chain. We found that substituents on both the sulfonamide nitrogen and phenyl group of OBHSA unit had significant effect on biological activities. Among them, conjugate 16i with N-methyl and naphthyl groups exhibited potent antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 cells, and excellent ERα degradation activity and HDACs inhibitory ability. A further molecular docking study indicated the interaction patterns of these conjugates with ERα, which may provide guidance to design novel SERDs or PROTAC-like SERDs for breast cancer therapy.

- Method for catalyzing one-pot hydrogenation and amidation of nitroaromatic hydrocarbon and carboxylic acid by visible light
-
The invention discloses a method for catalyzing one-pot hydrogenation and amidation reaction of nitroaromatic hydrocarbon and carboxylic acid by visible light. The method comprises the following steps: preparing Pt nanoparticles uniformly dispersed on an N-doped titanium dioxide/titanium carbide (MXene) heterojunction as a photocatalyst (3% Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2), and applying the catalyst to a cascade reaction of an aromatic nitro compound and carboxylic acid to prepare an amide product. The 3% Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 has excellent tandem hydrogenation and amidation activity and chemical selectivity of an aromatic nitro compound and carboxylic acid under the irradiation of visible light. The excellent catalytic performance of 3% Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 is attributed to the close contact of TiO2 and conductive Ti3C2, and the separation efficiency of photo-induced electrons and holes is improved through charge short-range directional transmission. The preparation method of the catalyst is simple and easy to operate, the catalyst can be used for photocatalytic efficient one-pot hydrogenation and amidation reactions, the reaction conditions are mild, and the catalyst is easy to recycle.

- Catalyst-free generation of acyl radicals induced by visible light in water to construct C-N bonds
-
We describe herein a catalyst-free and redox-neutral photochemical strategy for the direct generation of acyl radicals from α-diketones, and its selective conversion of nitrosoarenes to hydroxyamides or amides with AcOH or NaCl as an additive. The reaction was carried out under mild conditions in water with purple LEDs as the light source. A broad scope of substrates was demonstrated. Mechanistic experiments indicate that α-diketones cleave to give acyl radicals, with hydroxyamides being further reduced to amides.

- Visible-light induced one-pot hydrogenation and amidation of nitroaromatics with carboxylic acids over 2D MXene-derived Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2
-
Pt nanoparticles supported on N doped titanium dioxide/titanium carbide (MXene) heterojunctions were employed as photocatalysts for the tandem reactions between aromatic nitro compounds and carboxylic acids to produce amide products. The 3%Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 heterojunction was prepared by in situ grew TiO2 on Ti3C2 nanosheets and then N doped TiO2 with melamine, Pt nanoparticles with 3.3 nm mean diameter well dispersed on N-TiO2/Ti3C2. 3%Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 had excellent amidation activity and chemoselectivity under visible-light irradiation. The elevated catalytic performance of 3%Pt/N-TiO2/Ti3C2 was owing to the improvement in photogenerated electron and hole separation efficiency through charge short-range directional transmission caused by the intimate contact between the TiO2 and the conductive Ti3C2. This direct hydrogenation along with amidation between nitroaromatics and carboxylic acids own actual merits in the amides produce with no harmful byproducts. In situ DRIFTS spectra verified that the amidation activation with visible light irradiation at 25 °C was much faster than heating.

- Discovery of new phenyl sulfonyl-pyrimidine carboxylate derivatives as the potential multi-target drugs with effective anti-Alzheimer's action: Design, synthesis, crystal structure and in-vitro biological evaluation
-
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is multifactorial, progressive neurodegeneration with impaired behavioural and cognitive functions. The multitarget-directed ligand (MTDL) strategies are promising paradigm in drug development, potentially leading to new possible therapy options for complex AD. Herein, a series of novel MTDLs phenylsulfonyl-pyrimidine carboxylate (BS-1 to BS-24) derivatives were designed and synthesized for AD treatment. All the synthesized compounds were validated by 1HNMR, 13CNMR, HRMS, and BS-19 were structurally validated by X-Ray single diffraction analysis. To evaluate the plausible binding affinity of designed compounds, molecular docking study was performed, and the result revealed their significant interaction with active sites of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). The synthesized compounds displayed moderate to excellent in vitro enzyme inhibitory activity against AChE and BuChE at nanomolar (nM) concentration. Among 24 compounds (BS-1 to BS-24), the optimal compounds (BS-10 and BS-22) displayed potential inhibition against AChE; IC50 = 47.33 ± 0.02 nM and 51.36 ± 0.04 nM and moderate inhibition against BuChE; IC50 = 159.43 ± 0.72 nM and 153.3 ± 0.74 nM respectively. In the enzyme kinetics study, the compound BS-10 displayed non-competitive inhibition of AChE with Ki = 8 nM. Respective compounds BS-10 and BS-22 inhibited AChE-induced Aβ1-42 aggregation in thioflavin T-assay at 10 μM and 20 μM, but BS-10 at 10 μM and 20 μM concentrations are found more potent than BS-22. In addition, the aggregation properties were determined by the dynamic light scattering (DLS) and was found that BS-10 and BS-22 could significantly inhibit self-induced as well as AChE-induced Aβ1-42 aggregation. The effect of compounds (BS-10 and BS-22) on the viability of MC65 neuroblastoma cells and their capability to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in PAMPA-BBB were further studied. Further, in silico approach was applied to analyze physicochemical and pharmacokinetics properties of the designed compounds via the SwissADME and PreADMET server. Hence, the novel phenylsulfonyl-pyrimidine carboxylate derivatives can act as promising leads in the development of AChE inhibitors and Aβ disaggregator for the treatment of AD.

- Direct para-Selective C-H Amination of Iodobenzenes: Highly Efficient Approach for the Synthesis of Diarylamines
-
Iodine(III)-mediated synthesis of 4-iodo-N-phenylaniline from iodobenzene has been achieved, and the reaction can proceed under mild conditions. A variety of functional groups were well tolerated, providing the corresponding products in moderate to good yields. The remaining iodine group provides an effective platform for converting the products into several valuable asymmetric diphenylamines. Most importantly, this reaction can be easily scaled up to the ten-gram scale, highlighting its synthetic utility. The mechanistic study revealed that the in situ generated aryl hypervalent iodine intermediate is the key factor to realize this para-selective C-H amination reaction.

- An unsymmetrical covalent organic polymer for catalytic amide synthesis
-
Herein, we present the first report on the Covalent Organic Polymer (COP) directed non-classical synthesis of an amide bond. An economical route has been chosen for the synthesis of APC-COP using p-aminophenol and cyanuric chloride. APC-COP acts as a smart, valuable and sustainable catalyst for efficient access to the amide bond under mild conditions at room temperature in 30 min. APC-COP exhibits selectivity towards carboxylic acids over esters. The key features of this protocol involve the variety of parameters, viz. wider substrate scope, no use of additive and recyclability, which makes this approach highly desirable in gramscale synthesis. Moreover, we have shown the practical utility of the present method in the catalytic synthesis of paracetamol.

- Visible Light-Promoted Beckmann Rearrangements: Separating Sequential Photochemical and Thermal Phenomena in a Continuous Flow Reactor
-
The Beckmann rearrangement of oximes to amides typically requires strong acids or highly reactive, hazardous electrophiles and/or elevated temperatures to proceed. A very attractive alternative is the in situ generation of Vilsmeier–Haack reagents, by means of photoredox catalysis, as promoters for the thermal Beckmann rearrangement. Investigation of the reaction parameters for this light-induced method using a one-pot strategy has shown that the reaction is limited by the different temperatures required for each of the two sequential steps. Using a continuous flow reactor, the photochemical and thermal processes have been separated by integrating a flow photoreactor unit at low temperature for the electrophile generation with a second reactor unit, at high temperature, where the rearrangement takes place. This strategy has enabled excellent conversions and yields for a diverse set of oximes, minimizing the formation of side products obtained with the original one-pot method.

- Visible-light photocatalytic activation of N-chlorosuccinimide by organic dyes for the chlorination of arenes and heteroarenes
-
A variety of arenes and heteroarenes are chlorinated in moderate to excellent yields using N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) under visible-light activated conditions. A screening of known organic dye photocatalysts resulted in the identification of methylene green as the most efficient catalyst to use with NCS. According to mechanistic studies described within, the reaction is speculated to proceed via a single electron oxidation of NCS utilizing methylene green under visible-light photoredox pathway. The photo-oxidation of NCS amplifies the electrophilicity of the chlorine atom of the NCS, thus leading to enhanced reactivity as a chlorinating reagent with aromatic substrates.

- The highly efficient Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes to amides by using Mukaiyama reagent under mild conditions
-
Background: A rapid and efficient synthesis of amides via Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes with good to excellent yields has been carried out using Mukaiyama reagent/Et3N system. The procedure is mild and suitable for both aromatic and cycloaliphatic substrates affording the products in good to quantitative yields with short reaction times. Methods: A suspension of acetophenone oxime (0.135 g, 1 mmol), Mukaiyama reagent (0.383 g, 1.5 mmol), and Et3N (0.21 mL, 1.5 mmol) in CH3CN (3 mL) was magnetically stirred at room temperature. After completion of the reaction (monitored by TLC) and evaporation of CH3CN, aqueous HCl (5%, 10 mL) was added and the organic layer extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 × 5 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated. Purification of the crude product by short column chromatography on silica gel (n-hexane/EtOAc, 5/2) provided N-phenylacetamide (0.120 g, 89%) as a white solid: mp 112°C (lit. 113-115°C); 1H NMR (CDCl3, 250 MHz) 8.03 (brs, 1H), 7.52 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 2H), 7.28 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 7.09 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 1H), 2.15 (s, 3H). Results: In a continuation of our studies on the use of the Mukaiyama reagent in organic transformations, we became interested in evaluating it as a reagent in the presence of triethylamine as a base for the conversion of ketoximes into corresponding N-substituted amides under mild conditions. To optimize the reaction conditions and find the best base and solvent using benzophenone oxime as a model substrate, a few experiments were carried out with Mukaiyama reagent and various bases and solvents at room temperature. The optimum conditions of reaction involved benzophenone oxime (1 mmol), Mukaiyama reagent (1.5 mmol), triethylamine (1.5 mmol), CH3CN (3 mL) at room temperature. Under the optimized conditions, a series of N-substituted amides were studied to establish the scope and limitations of this method. A wide range of substituted ketoximes derived from various aromatic, cycloaliphatic, and heterocyclic ketoximes gave desired products in good to excellent yields. Conclusion: We have disclosed a mild procedure for obtaining amides from the corresponding ketoximes via Beckmann rearrangement using Mukaiyama reagent. Among the attractive features of this protocol are its use of inexpensive and commercially available reagent, mild reaction conditions, simplicity, general applicability, relatively short reaction time, high yield and good selectivity.

- Regioselective monobromination of aromatics via a halogen bond acceptor-donor interaction of catalytic thioamide and N-bromosuccinimide
-
Regioselective monobromination of various aromatics was achieved at room temperature using N-bromosuccinimide and 5 mol% of thioamides in acetonitrile. With thiourea as catalyst, activated aromatics, such as anisole, acetanilide, benzamide and phenol analogues containing electron donating or withdrawing groups, were brominated with high regioselectivity. Room temperature brominations of weakly activated aromatics and deactivated 9-fluorenone were accomplished by 5 mol% thioacetamide, higher substrates concentrations and longer reaction times. A backbonding of the bromine lone pairs with the π*of C[dbnd]S group and a halogen bond between the halogen bond donor bromine and the halogen bond acceptor sulfur of the thioamide are thought to be the principal interactions and cause of N-bromosuccinimide activation.

- Iron(III)-Catalyzed Chlorination of Activated Arenes
-
A general and regioselective method for the chlorination of activated arenes has been developed. The transformation uses iron(III) triflimide as a powerful Lewis acid for the activation of N-chlorosuccinimide and the subsequent chlorination of a wide range of anisole, aniline, acetanilide, and phenol derivatives. The reaction was utilized for the late-stage mono- and dichlorination of a range of target compounds such as the natural product nitrofungin, the antibacterial agent chloroxylenol, and the herbicide chloroxynil. The facile nature of this transformation was demonstrated with the development of one-pot, tandem, iron-catalyzed dihalogenation processes allowing highly regioselective formation of different carbon-halogen bonds. The synthetic utility of the resulting dihalogenated aryl compounds as building blocks was established with the synthesis of natural products and pharmaceutically relevant targets.

- Room temperature C(sp2)-H oxidative chlorination: Via photoredox catalysis
-
Photoredox catalysis has been developed to achieve oxidative C-H chlorination of aromatic compounds using NaCl as the chlorine source and Na2S2O8 as the oxidant. The reactions occur at room temperature and exhibit exclusive selectivity for C(sp2)-H bonds over C(sp3)-H bonds. The method has been used for the chlorination of a diverse set of substrates, including the expedited synthesis of key intermediates to bioactive compounds and a drug.

- Highly ortho-Selective Chlorination of Anilines Using a Secondary Ammonium Salt Organocatalyst
-
An organocatalytic, highly facile, efficient, and regioselective ortho-chlorination of anilines is described. A secondary ammonium chloride salt has been employed as the catalyst and the reaction can be conducted at room temperature without protection from air and moisture. In addition, the reaction is readily scalable and the catalyst can be recycled and reused. This catalytic protocol has been applied to the efficient synthesis of a highly potent c-Met kinase inhibitor. Mechanistic studies revealed that unique structural features of the secondary ammonium chloride salt are important for both the catalysis and regioselectivity of the electrophilic ortho-chlorination.

- Mild and efficient palladium-catalyzed direct trifluoroethylation of aromatic systems by C-H activation
-
The introduction of trifluoroalkyl groups into aromatic molecules is an important transformation in the field of organic and medicinal chemistry. However, the direct installation of fluoroalkyl groups onto aromatic molecules still represents a challenging and highly demanding synthetic task. Herein, a simple trifluoroethylation process that relies on the palladium-catalyzed C-H activation of aromatic compounds is described. With the utilization of a highly active trifluoroethyl(mesityl)iodonium salt, the developed catalytic method enables the first highly efficient and selective trifluoroethylation of aromatic compounds. The robust catalytic procedure provides the desired products in up to 95 % yield at 25 °C in 1.5 to 3 hours and tolerates a broad range of functional groups. The utilization of hypervalent reagents opens new synthetic possibilities for direct alkylations and fluoroalkylations in the field of transition-metal-catalyzed C-H activation.

- Competitive Deprotonation and Superoxide [O2 -?] Radical-Anion Adduct Formation Reactions of Carboxamides under Negative-Ion Atmospheric-Pressure Helium-Plasma Ionization (HePI) Conditions
-
Carboxamides bearing an N-H functionality are known to undergo deprotonation under negative-ion-generating mass spectrometric conditions. Herein, we report that N-H bearing carboxamides with acidities lower than that of the hydroperoxyl radical (HO-O?) preferentially form superoxide radical-anion (O2 -?) adducts, rather than deprotonate, when they are exposed to the glow discharge of a helium-plasma ionization source. For example, the spectra of N-alkylacetamides show peaks for superoxide radical-anion (O2 -?) adducts. Conversely, more acidic amides, such as N-alkyltrifluoroacetamides, preferentially undergo deprotonation under similar experimental conditions. Upon collisional activation, the O2 -? adducts of N-alkylacetamides either lose the neutral amide or the hydroperoxyl radical (HO-O?) to generate the superoxide radical-anion (m/z 32) or the deprotonated amide [m/z (M - H)-], respectively. For somewhat acidic carboxamides, the association between the two entities is weak. Thus, upon mildest collisional activation, the adduct dissociates to eject the superoxide anion. Superoxide-adduct formation results are useful for structure determination purposes because carboxamides devoid of a N-H functionality undergo neither deprotonation nor adduct formation under HePI conditions.

However yields of quinolines having electron donating groups in all cases. The structures of the synthesized compounds have been established on the basis of physical and spectral data. The antibacterial and antifungal activity of these compounds was tested by filter paper disc method against Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC96), Escherichia coli (MTCC722) and Candida albicans (MTCC183). The results showed that azetidin-2-one fused 2-chloro-3-formyl quinolines derivatives are better in inhibiting the growth of both types of organisms. Compounds AZT b2, AZT b3 to AZT g2, AZT g3 were found to be more potent compared to standard drug.

- N-Acyl-N-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-nitrobenzenesulfonamides: Highly selective and efficient reagents for acylation of amines in water
-
A variety of N-acyl-N-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-nitrobenzenesulfonamides (1a-e) were synthesized in one pot from 4-chloroaniline under solvent-free conditions and have been developed as chemoselective N-acylation reagents. Selective protection of primary amines in the presence of secondary amines, acylation of aliphatic amines in the presence of aryl amines, and monofunctionalization of primary-secondary diamines as well as selective N-acylation of amino alcohols using these reagents are described. All of the acylation reactions were carried out in water as a green solvent. High stability and easy preparation of these acylating reagents are other advantages of this method.

- Doping of copper (I) oxide onto a solid support as a recyclable catalyst for acetylation of amines/alcohols/phenols and synthesis of trisubstituted imidazole
-
A study of copper-mediated C-heteroatom especially C-N and C-O bond formations using simpler methodologies has been carried out. In the present work, acetylation of various substrates such as amines, phenols and alcohols; synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazole is done using simple and easily available starting materials. Copper (I) oxide was synthesized in situ by the reduction of Fehling's solution with glucose followed by its anchoring onto different supports like silica, HAP, basic alumina and cellulose. Comparison and contrasts between the reactivity of copper (I) oxide supported onto different supports for these reactions are made. The reactivity of copper (I) oxide seems to be largely dependent on the nature of support and the most active catalyst for a particular reaction was further characterized by different spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR, XRD, TGA, XPS, SEM, TEM and AAS. The catalysts were found to be stable, easily recyclable without any significant loss in activity. Graphical abstract: Applications of solid supported copper (I) oxides (where solid support is silica, HAP, cellulose and basic alumina) are studied for various organic transformations with special emphasis on C-N and C-O bond formation reactions.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]

- Photo-Fries rearrangement of aryl acetamides: Regioselectivity induced by the aqueous micellar green environment
-
Photochemical reactions tend to give more than one photoproduct. However, such a reaction can be a powerful synthetic tool when it is possible to conduct it in regioselective conditions yielding a single photoproduct. Water-surfactant solutions as reaction media can be considered as an approach in this context because they show products with different features than those from isotropic solutions. Here we describe results obtained from studying the effect on the prototypical photoreaction, known as the photo-Fries reaction of several substituted acetanilides and α-naphthyl acetamide within surfactant micelles (ionic and non-ionic micelles). This reaction involves homolytic cleavage of a C-N bond to yield a singlet radical pair. The surfactant micelles control the rotational and translational mobility of the radical pair, resulting in noticeable photoproduct selectivity.

- Halogenase-Inspired Oxidative Chlorination Using Flavin Photocatalysis
-
Chlorine gas or electropositive chlorine reagents are used to prepare chlorinated aromatic compounds, which are found in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and polymers, and serve as synthetic precursors for metal-catalyzed cross-couplings. Nature chlorinates with chloride anions, FAD-dependent halogenases, and O2 as the oxidant. A photocatalytic oxidative chlorination is described based on the organic dye riboflavin tetraacetate mimicking the enzymatic process. The chemical process allows within the suitable arene redox potential window a broader substrate scope compared to the specific activation in the enzymatic binding pocket. Chlorination of arenes with chloride anions: The photochemical analogue of the enzymatic chlorination of Flavin-adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent halogenases is possible in the presence of riboflavin, air, acetic acid, and blue light (see scheme; RFT=riboflavin tetraacetate).

Photoredox catalysis activates N-chloramines and N-chloro-succinimide (NCS) for the electrophilic chlorination of arenes. The photooxidation of the nitrogen atom to a radical cation induces a positive polarization on the chlorine atom, which results in a higher reactivity in electrophilic aromatic chlorination reactions.

- Cleavage of C-N bonds in guanidine derivatives and its relevance to efficient C-N bonds formation
-
Efficient nonenzymatic decomposition of guanidine derivatives with high structural and functional diversity into anilide products is achieved in the presence of PdII/Cu(II) carboxylates/CO, relying on a dual C-N bonds cleavage strategy. In this decomposition process, the cooperative action of PdII species, Cu(II) carboxylates, and CO provides not only the N-acylating agents but also an initiator to trigger this C-N bonds cleavage sequence. The current results indicate that PdII/Cu(II) carboxylates/CO system provides a convenient and practical method for highly selective cleavage of unreactive C-N single bonds.

2-Mercapto-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine, as effective carboxyl activating group, has been successfully proved by converting it into respective acyl derivatives and the subsequent conversion to the amides and esters respectively using amines, amino alcohols and alcohols. The aminolysis and esterification were monitored chemically and spectrophotometrically. This paved way to establish that the above mercaptopyrimidine derivative is an efficient carboxyl activating group applicable in solid phase peptide synthesis.

- Synthesis of secondary amides from N-Substituted amidines by tandem oxidative rearrangement and isocyanate elimination
-
In this work an efficient tandem process transforming N-substituted amidines into secondary amides has been described. The process involves N-acylurea formation by reaction of the substrate with bis(acyloxy)(phenyl)-λ3-iodane followed by isocyanate elimination. The periodinane reagents are obtained from the commercially available phenyl-iodine(III) diacetate [PhI(OAc)2, (PIDA)] by ligand exchange with carboxylic acids. The N-substituted amidine substrates are easily synthesized from readily available nitriles. The method is applicable for secondary amide synthesis, based on both aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic amines, including challenging amides consisting of sterically hindered acids and amines. Moreover, the protocol allows one to combine steric bulk with electron deficiency in the target amides (aniline based). Such compounds are difficult to synthesize efficiently based on classical condensation reactions involving carboxylic acids and amines. Overall, the synthetic protocol transforms a nitrile into a secondary amide in both aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic systems.
