With the aim of expanding the scope of SAR on piperlongumine (PL), a naturally occurring anticancer molecule, we have designed a novel hybrid molecule bearing 3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one and trans-cinnamic acids. The structure, based on hybridization strategy, is used for hybridization of naturally occurring scaffolds. We have synthesized 14 hybrid molecules by coupling 3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one core with cinnamic acids using the mix anhydride approach. The newly synthesized inhibitors were evaluated for cell viability against breast cancer MCF-7 and cervical cancer HeLa cell lines. Furthermore, the active compounds were screened for their potential in breast cancer MDA-MB-231, cervical cancer C33A cell lines, prostate cancer DU-145, PC-3, and normal VERO cells. From the series, compound 10g was seen to inhibit MCF-7 cell growth significantly with GI50 50 = 20 μM) and C33A (GI50 = 3.2 μM). While the inhibitor 10i inhibits MCF-7 breast cancer cell growth GI50 = 3.42 μM along with inhibition of cell growth in MDA-MB-231 (GI50 = 30 μM), HeLa (GI50 = 7.67 μM), C33A (GI50 = 13 μM), DU-145 (GI50 = 6.45 μM), PC-3 (GI50 = 8.68 μM), and VERO (GI50 = 2.93 μM), respectively. Furthermore, molecular docking study demonstrated these compounds could bind tightly to the colchicine domain of tubulin through a network of favorable steric and electrostatic interactions and thus act as a tubulin polymerization inhibitor.

Amine-functionalized mesoporous zirconia was prepared by a co-condensation method using silane (aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, APTES) and zirconium butoxide. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, BET surface area analysis, 13C magic angle spinning-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier-transfer infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmittance electron micrography (TEM), and CHN analysis. FTIR and NMR results revealed the successful grafting of organic amines onto the surface of zirconia. The catalytic activities were investigated for liquid phase Knoevenagel condensation of various aromatic aldehydes with diethyl malonate. The catalysts showed excellent yield of products at room temperature in solvent-free condition.
Discovery of novel dihydroartemisinin-cinnamic hybrids inducing lung cancer cells apoptosis via inhibition of Akt/Bad signal pathway

A series of dihydroartemisinin-cinnamic acid hybrids were designed, synthesized and evaluated. Most of the tested compounds showed enhanced anti-proliferative activities than artemisinin and dihydroartemisinin, among which 16 g had the superior potency with IC50 values ranging from 5.07 μM to 7.88 μM against four tested cancer cell lines. The cell cycle arrest revealed that 16 g induced A549 cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase via regulation of G1-related protein expression (Cdk4). Further mechanism studies reveal that 16 g induced A549 cells apoptosis via inhibiting Akt/Bad pathway. Moreover, 16 g depolarized the mitochondria membrane potentials and induced ROS generation in A549. Additionally, 16 g blocked migration of A549 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. What's more, 16 g is barely nontoxic to zebrafish embryos. Overall, the cell cycle arrest, inhibition of Akt/Bad signal pathway, ROS generation and migration blocked might explain the potent anti-proliferative activities of these compounds.

While continuous chemical processes have attracted both academic and industrial interest, virtually all active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are still produced by using multiple distinct batch processes. To date, methods for the divergent multistep continuous production of customizable small molecules are not available. A chemical assembly system was developed, in which flow-reaction modules are linked together in an interchangeable fashion to give access to a wide breadth of chemical space. Control at three different levels - choice of starting material, reagent, or order of reaction modules - enables the synthesis of five APIs that represent three different structural classes (γ-amino acids, γ-lactams, β-amino acids), including the blockbuster drugs Lyrica and Gabapentin, in good overall yields (49-75%).
Graphene based material as a base catalyst for solvent free Aldol condensation and Knoevenagel reaction at room temperature

Graphene oxide (GO) acts as a highly active heterogeneous base catalyst for a wide variety of reactions. Here we have described the catalytic activities of GO in the condensation reaction of various substituted benzaldehydes with acetophenone (aldol condensation) and with active methylene compound malononitrile (Knoevenagel reaction) at room temperature under solvent free condition. GO is characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-visible spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and AFM. The experimental results showed that the GO had higher catalytic activity and it can be recycled without significant loss of its activity.
CO2 absorbing cost-effective ionic liquid for synthesis of commercially important alpha cyanoacrylic acids: A safe process for activation of cyanoacetic acid
Sharma, Yogesh O.,Degani, Mariam S.
experimental part, p. 526 - 530 (2010/04/23)
Cost-effective and carbon dioxide absorbing ionic liquid, tri-(2-hydroxyethyl) ammonium acetate, was shown to perform multiple roles in Knoevenagel condensation. It acted as an environmentally benign solvent, as an activating catalyst for the less reactive cyanoacetic acid and also as a risk reduction medium for the unevenly generated large amount of CO2 gas for large scale reactions. The reaction was scaled up for multi-gram synthesis of commercially important alpha cyanoacrylic acids.
