- Asymmetric Reductive Amination/Ring-Closing Cascade: Direct Synthesis of Enantioenriched Biaryl-Bridged NH Lactams
-
We report here a Ru-catalyzed enantioselective synthesis of biaryl-bridged NH lactams through asymmetric reductive amination and a spontaneous ring-closing cascade from keto esters and NH4OAc with H2 as reductant. The reaction features broad substrate generality and high enantioselectivities (up to >99percent ee). To showcase the practical utility, a highly enantioselective synthesis of 5-ethylindolobenzazepinone C, a promising antimitotic agent, has been rapidly completed. Furthermore, the amide group in the products enables versatile elaborations through directed C-H functionalization.

- A Versatile C–H Halogenation Strategy for Indole Derivatives under Electrochemical Catalyst- and Oxidant-Free Conditions
-
Halogenated indoles are essential structural motifs in bioactive natural products. Reported herein is an economical and scalable electrochemical protocol for regioselective 3C–H halogenation of indole derivatives. This strategy provides access to a host of 3-iodo-, 3-bromo-, 3-chloro-, and 3-thiocyanoindole derivatives under mild conditions using inexpensive (pseudo)halide salts as the sole reagent. The optimized conditions do not require any supplementary electrolyte salts.

- Catalyst-Free Formal Thioboration to Synthesize Borylated Benzothiophenes and Dihydrothiophenes
-
The first ring-forming thioboration reaction of C?C π bonds is reported. This catalyst-free method proceeds in the presence of a commercially available external electrophilic boron source (B-chlorocatecholborane) in good to high yields. The method is scalable and tolerates a variety of functional groups that are intolerant of other major borylation methods. The resulting borylated benzothiophenes participate in a variety of in situ derivatization reactions, showcasing that these borylated intermediates do not need to be isolated prior to downstream functionalization. This methodology has been extended to the synthesis of borylated dihydrothiophenes. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the operative mechanistic pathway is through boron-induced activation of the alkyne followed by electrophilic cyclization, as opposed to S?B σ bond formation, providing a mechanistically distinct pathway to the thioboration of C?C π bonds.

- Flexible synthesis of isomeric pyranoindolones and evaluation of cytotoxicity towards HeLa cells
-
A hybrid pharmacophore approach for the synthesis of isomeric pyranoindolones was achieved by employing gold(III) chloride-catalyzed cycloisomerization of alkyne-tethered indole carboxylic acids in good to excellent yield. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their tumor cell growth inhibitory activity against human cervix adenocarcinoma (HeLa) which revealed that three compounds exhibited activity comparable with the standard cis-platin (IC50 = 0.08 μM). Molecular docking of all the compounds in Vaccinia H1-Related (VHR) Phosphatase receptor also supported that compound 7d as the most active with a free energy of binding as ?8.27 kcal/mol.

- Gold(III) chloride catalyzed regioselective synthesis of pyrano[3,4-b]indol-1(9H)-ones and evaluation of anticancer potential towards human cervix adenocarcinoma
-
A highly regioselective synthesis of pyrano[3,4-b]indol-1(9H)-ones via gold(III) chloride catalyzed cycloisomerization of 3-ethynyl-indole-2-carboxylic acid was achieved in good to excellent yields. These compounds were screened for their in vitro cytotoxicity against human cervical (HeLa) cell lines. Out of ten compounds, three compounds (7d, 7e and 7j) showed comparable proliferation inhibitory activity against the standard drug cisplatin. Compound 7d was found to be the most efficacious with IC50 value of 0.22 μM.

- Efficient synthesis of the first n-methyloxoarcyriaflavin including an original central seven-membered cycle
-
A new route to the first N-methyloxoarcyriaflavin was designed. The compound was obtained by a palladium-catalyzed Stille cross-coupling reaction, followed by an electrophilic cyclization onto a C-2 indolic position as a key step. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.
