- Synthesis, evaluation and in silico studies of novel BRD4 bromodomain inhibitors bearing a benzo[d]isoxazol scaffold
-
Abstract: The BRD4 protein is associated with various diseases, which has been an attractive target for the treatment of cancer and inflammation. This paper is a follow-up to our previous studies, in which we report the structure-based design, synthesis, and evaluation of a new class of small-molecule BRD4 bromodomain inhibitors bearing a benzo[d]isoxazol scaffold. The SARs focused on exploration of the 2′ or 3′ position to afford novel inhibitors that may avoid potential metabolically unstable site. The most potent inhibitor 13f exhibited high binding affinity to BRD4(1) with a ΔTm value of 7.8 °C as evaluated in thermal shift assay (TSA). The potent activity was also demonstrated by a peptide competition assay with an IC50 value of 0.21?μM. The docking studies revealed the binding mode of the compounds with the active site of BRD4(1). In addition, in silico predictions indicated that these compounds possessed good drug-likeness and pharmacokinetic profile.

- Photoinduced Acetylation of Anilines under Aqueous and Catalyst-Free Conditions
-
A green and efficient visible-light induced functionalization of anilines under mild conditions has been reported. Utilizing nontoxic, cost-effective, and water-soluble diacetyl as photosensitizer and acetylating reagent, and water as the solvent, a variety of anilines were converted into the corresponding aryl ketones, iodides, and bromides. With advantages of environmentally friendly conditions, simple operation, broad substrate scope, and functional group tolerance, this reaction represents a valuable method in organic synthesis.

- 9,9′-bifluorenylidene derivatives as novel hole-transporting materials for potential photovoltaic applications
-
Novel 9,9′-bifluorenylidene derivatives were designed to study the effect of alkyl chain length on selected physical properties. The structure of the synthesized compounds was confirmed by using NMR spectroscopy (1H, 13C, H–H COSY, H–C HMQC, H–C HMBC) and elemental analysis. They showed high thermal stability and undergo decomposition in the range of 388–400 °C. As was revealed by DSC investigations, they can be converted from crystalline to amorphous materials with relatively high glass transition temperature. The replacement of the alkyl chains from ethyl to butyl resulted in a significant negative impact on melting and glass transition temperatures. The synthesized derivatives undergo reversible electrochemical oxidation and reduction and showed a very low energy band gap (1.47 and 1.79 eV). They intensively absorb the light up 550 nm and also exhibited a week absorption band in the range of 550–750 nm. Their hole transporting ability was tested in perovskite solar cells. Additionally, the effect of the doping concentration of Li+ on photovoltaic device performance for these compounds was investigated. It should be stressed found that 9,9′-bifluorenylidene derivative substituted with ethyl units applied as hole transporting materials in perovskite solar cells demonstrated the highest device efficiency of 7.33% higher than of the spiro-OMeTAD utilized for preparation of the reference cell (4.40%).

- Method for catalyzing deaminized boric acid esterification or halogenation of arylamine
-
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis and in particular discloses a method for catalyzing deaminized boric acid esterification or halogenation of arylamine. The method comprises the following steps: putting arylamine and a nitroso type compound into a mixed solvent, and performing a reaction at 0-5 DEG; and further adding a raw material capable of providing a functionalization group A and a catalysis amount of a reaction accelerator, and performing deamination functionalization reaction under light radiation at 10-50 DEG C, so as to obtain a product that an amino site of the arylamine is modified by the functionalization group A. Due to synergetic control on substrates, reaction solvents, material mixing modes, temperatures, reaction accelerators and addition amounts, boric acid esterification or halogenation of arylamine, particularly electron donating substituted arylamine which is hard to treat effectively in technical schemes of the industry, can be achieved.

- Selective Halogenation Using an Aniline Catalyst
-
Electrophilic halogenation is used to produce a wide variety of halogenated compounds. Previously reported methods have been developed mainly using a reagent-based approach. Unfortunately, a suitable "catalytic" process for halogen transfer reactions has yet to be achieved. In this study, arylamines have been found to generate an N-halo arylamine intermediate, which acts as a highly reactive but selective catalytic electrophilic halogen source. A wide variety of heteroaromatic and aromatic compounds are halogenated using commercially available N-halosuccinimides, for example, NCS, NBS, and NIS, with good to excellent yields and with very high selectivity. In the case of unactivated double bonds, allylic chlorides are obtained under chlorination conditions, whereas bromocyclization occurs for polyolefin. The reactivity of the catalyst can be tuned by varying the electronic properties of the arene moiety of catalyst.

- SNAAP sulfonimidate alkylating agent for acids, alcohols, and phenols 1
-
Stable, crystalline ethyl N-tert-butyl-4-nitrobenzenesulfonimidate has been prepared in high yield by direct O-ethylation of N-tert-butyl-4- nitrobenzenesulfonamide with iodoethane and silver(I) oxide in dichloromethane. This sulfonimidate directly ethylates various acids to esters; the stronger the acid, the faster it alkylates and in higher yield. It readily ethylates alcohols and phenols to ethers at room temperature in the presence of tetrafluoroboric acid catalyst without molecular rearrangements or racemization. We have defined these reactions as SNAAP alkylations: [substitution, nucleophilic of acids, alcohols and phenols]. The hard sulfonimidate alkylating agent is chemoselective, preferring oxygen > nitrogen > sulfur. The sulfonamide byproduct of alkylation is readily recycled to the sulfonimidate.

- In situ acidic carbon dioxide/water system for selective oxybromination of electron-rich aromatics catalyzed by copper bromide
-
Carbon dioxide, being one of the major greenhouse gases responsible for global warming, its atmospheric level grows ever faster since the beginning of industrial era. Great efforts have been devoted to developing versatile technologies/processes to adjust and manipulate the rapid growth of CO 2 emission. Besides CO2 capture and storage/sequestration (CCS) to control its emission, chemical utilization of the captured CO 2 (CCU) emerges to be a rational technique for economical benefits as well as environmental concerns. As for the aim of CO2 utilization, an environmentally benign CO2/water reversible acidic system was developed for the copper (II)-catalyzed selective oxybromination of electron-rich aromatics without the need of any conventional acid additive and organic solvent. Notably, up to 95% yields of the bromination products were attained with good regio-selectivity when cupric bromide was used as the catalyst and lithium bromide as a cheap and easy handling bromine source under supercritical CO2. The catalytic system worked well for electron-rich aromatics including ethers, sulfides and mesitylene. Carbonic acid in situ formed from CO2 and water is supposed to act as the proton donator in the Bronsted acid-promoted reaction. Notably, CO2 in this study serves as a reaction medium and a promoter in conjunction with water and also provides safe environment for aerobic reactions. Given with excellent reaction efficiency as well as no need of neutralization disposal, this process thus represents an environmentally friendly approach for aerobic bromination of aromatics with essential reduction of CO2 emission as well as an economically beneficial way for application of captured CO2.

- In situ acidic carbon dioxide/ethanol system for selective oxybromination of aromatic ethers catalyzed by copper chloride
-
An environmentally benign carbon dioxide/ethanol reversible acidic system was developed for the copper(II)-catalyzed regioselective oxybromination of aromatic ethers without the need of any conventional acid additive and organic solvent. Good to excellent yields together with very good regioselectivity were achieved when easily available cupric chloride dihydrate was used as catalyst and lithium bromide as the cheap and easy-to-handle bromine source under supercritical carbon dioxide conditions. Notably, the catalytic system worked well for a wide range of aromatic ethers including sulfides, resulting in the formation of the mono-brominated products in high yields and exclusive regioselectivity. The alkylcarbonic acid in situ formed from ethanol and carbon dioxide is assumed to play the crucial role in the Braonsted acid-promoted reaction, which could probably act as the proton donator, and was studied employing in situ FT-IR technique under carbon dioxide pressure by monitoring the vibration shift of the hydroxy group of ethanol. Given with excellent bromine atom efficiency as well as no need of neutralization in waste disposal, this approach thus represents a greener pathway for the aerobic bromination of aromatic ethers. A possible catalytic cycle for the in situ alkylcarbonic acid-assisted oxybomination and the effect of supercritical carbon dioxide, i.e., activation of alcohol and enhancement of mass transfer are also discussed.

- An improved Cu-based catalyst system for the reactions of alcohols with aryl halides
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) The use of 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10- phenanthroline (Me4Phen) as a ligand improves the Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aryl iodides and bromides with primary and secondary aliphatic, benzylic, allylic, and propargylic alcohols. Most importantly, by employing this catalyst system, the need to use an excessive quantity of the alcohol coupling partner is alleviated. The relatively mild conditions, short reaction times, and moderately low catalyst loading allow for a wide array of functional groups to be tolerated on both the electrophilic and nucleophilic coupling partners.

Two series of bis[1,2-bis(4-n-alkylphenyl)ethane-1,2-dithiolene]nickel, Cn-Ni (n= 1-12), and bis[1,2-bis(4-n-alkoxyphenyl)ethane-1,2-dithiolene]nickel, CnO-Ni(n = 1-12, 14, 16, 18), have been synthesized. Their mesomorphism, thermochromism, supramolecular structures and π-acceptor property have been investigated by using different scanning calorimetry, polarizing microscopy, temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction technique, electronic spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. From the X-ray diffraction and electronic spectral results, it was established that the CnO-Ni complexes for n ≤ 10 exhibit two differently colored discotic lamellar (DL) mesophases whereas none of the Cn-Ni complexes has a mesophase, and that the thermochromism (brown→green) is attributable to a slow transformation from the Ni-Ni bonded dimers to the Ni-S bonded dimers.

- Detection of Aryl Radicals in Hydrodediazoniations
-
Iodoacetic acid, an effective aryl radical trapping agent, was employed to investigate the reactive intermediates in several hydrodediazoniations. Isolation of an aryl iodide constitutes a positive result in the test for aryl radicals. Equally as important is the lower yield of the reduction product when the trap diverts radicals from their usual reaction path. Hydrodediazoniations performed in MeOH, EtOH, i-PrOH, benzyl alcohol, THF, tetramethylurea, formamide, and hypophosphorous acid all involve aryl radical intermediates. Ferrocene was found to be an effective initiator in most of these reactions; through its action as an electron donor, it serves to shorten reaction times and to improve yields of hydrodediazoniation products. All hydrodediazoniations examined, whether initiated or not, involve radical intermediates.
