Conjugates of naphthalimide, benzothiazole, and indole moieties are synthesized that show excellent cytotoxicity against A549 (lung), MCF7 (breast), and HeLa (cervix) cancer cell lines with IC50 values in the range of 0.14-8.59 μM. Compounds 12 and 13 substituted with ethanolamine and propargyl groups reveal potent cytotoxicity towards A549 cancer cells with IC50 values of 140 and 310 nM, respectively. These compounds are further evaluated as potent inhibitors of human type IIα topoisomerase. These conjugates also reveal strong interaction towards human serum albumin (HSA) with binding constant values of 1.75 × 105 M-1 and 1.88 × 105 M-1, respectively, and formation of the stable complex at ground state with static quenching. Docking studies also confirm the effective interactions between conjugates and topoisomerase. This journal is

The development of multifunctional molecules that are able to simultaneously interact with several pathological components has been considered as a solution to treat the complex pathologies of neurodegenerative diseases. Herein, a series of aminomethylindole derivatives were synthesized, and evaluation of their application for antineuroinflammation and promoting neurite outgrowth was disclosed. Our initial screening showed that most of the compounds potently inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated production of NO in microglial cells and potentiated the action of NGF to promote neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells. Interestingly, with outstanding NO/TNF-α production inhibition and neurite outgrowth-promoting activities, compounds 8c and 8g were capable of rescuing cells after injury by H2O2. Their antineuroinflammatory effects were associated with the downregulation of the LPS-induced expression of the inflammatory mediators inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Western blotting and immunofluorescence assay results indicated that the mechanism of their antineuroinflammatory actions involved suppression of the MAPK/NF-κB signal pathways. Further studies revealed that another important reason for the high comprehensive antineuroinflammatory activity was the anti-COX-2 capabilities of the compounds. All these results suggest that the potential biochemical multifunctional profiles of the aminomethylindole derivatives provide a new sight for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract: A series of novel 1-(4-aryl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-2-{[1-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl]methyli-dene}hydrazines were synthesized and properly characterized through IR, 1H and 13C NMR, and HRMS spectroscopic techniques. The synthesized compounds were screened for their antioxidant properties by using DPPH radical scavenging assay in comparison to ascorbic acid used as standard. The presence of a prenyl chain makes those compounds more lipophilic, which plays a crucial role in their radical scavenging activity. 1-{5-Bromo-[1-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-1H-indole-3-yl]methylidene}-2-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]hy-dra-zine showed a promising antioxidant activity.

Despite intensive studies on the synthesis of 3-formylindoles, it is still highly desirable to develop efficient methods for the formylation of indoles, due to the shortcomings of the reported methods, such as inconvenient operations and/or harsh reaction conditions. Here, we describe a Ph3P/ICH2CH2I-promoted formylation of indoles with DMF under mild conditions. A Vilsmeier-type intermediate is readily formed from DMF promoted by the Ph3P/ICH2CH2I system. A onestep formylation process can be applied to various electron-rich indoles, but a hydrolysis needs to be carried out as a second step in the case of electron-deficient indoles. Convenient operations make this protocol attractive.

Cancer poses a world-wide healthcare problem, demanding selective and effective therapy protocols. To address that, a vast amount of therapeutic candidates are being investigated in the field of medicinal chemistry. Accordingly, indole-benzimidazole structures have recently gained considerable interest because of their anticancer properties and estrogen receptor (ER) modulatory actions. In this study, novel methylsulfonyl indole-benzimidazole derivatives have been synthesized upon substitution of respectively the first (R1) and fifth (R2) positions of benzimidazole and indole groups. Structure and activity relationships were then studied via1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectral and in silico docking analyses, as well as cell viability measurements. We found that the compounds exhibited substantial affinity levels towards ER alpha (ERα). In addition, the correlation analysis of cytotoxicity profiles between ethyl- and methyl-sulfonyl indole-benzimidazoles revealed a collection of effective and consistent R1 and R2 substitutions. However, for some candidate derivatives, distinctive cytotoxicity levels and varying viability versus ERα affinity correlations were observable across the studies, suggesting that the sulfonyl side chain modifications themselves can also influence the ERα binding levels. These results demonstrated that our novel methylsulfonyl indole-benzimidazole derivatives, similar to their ethylsulfonyl counterparts, exhibit anticancer effects with potential estrogen receptor modulatory actions.

Latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection presents one of the largest challenges for tuberculosis control and novel antimycobacterial drug development. A series of pyrano[3,2-b]indolone-based compounds was designed and synthesized via an original eight-step scheme. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro activity against M. tuberculosis strains H37Rv and streptomycin-starved 18b (SS18b), representing models for replicating and nonreplicating mycobacteria, respectively. Compound 10a exhibited good activity with MIC99 values of 0.3 and 0.4 μg/mL against H37Rv and SS18b, respectively, as well as low toxicity, acceptable intracellular activity, and satisfactory metabolic stability and was selected as the lead compound for further studies. An analysis of 10a-resistant M. bovis mutants disclosed a cross-resistance with pretomanid and altered relative amounts of different forms of cofactor F420 in these strains. Complementation experiments showed that F420-dependent glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and the synthesis of mature F420 were important for 10a activity. Overall these studies revealed 10a to be a prodrug that is activated by an unknown F420-dependent enzyme in mycobacteria.

The syntheses of polycyclic thienoindolines bearing a dihydrothiophene or tetrahydrothiophene subunit have not been reported, despite the fact that such compounds may have interesting medicinal properties. Herein, we report a protocol for accessing polycyclic dihydrothiophenes by means of formal [2+2+1] intramolecular dearomatizing cyclization of alkynyl indoles with K2S and S8 as the sources of sulfide. In addition, tetrahydrothienoindolines were stereoselectively synthesized via a one-pot, two-step protocol involving AgNO3-catalyzed alkenyl dearomatization followed by two nucleophilic addition reactions involving K2S.

A series of ten novel 2,5-bis(indolyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were designed and synthesized. All these compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against four cancer cell lines namely A549, MDA-MB-231, MCF-7 and HeLa using MTT reduced assay. Among them, compound 12e exhibited good cytotoxicity on MCF-7 cell line with IC50 value of 1.8 μM and it was identified as a promising drug lead when compared to the standard drug doxorubicin (IC50 value 0.98 μM). Compound, 12h exhibited better antitumor activity against three cancer cell lines i.e., lung (A549), breast (MCF-7) and cervical (HeLa) with IC50 values of 3.3 μM, 2.6 μM and 6.34 μM respectively. The impact of these compounds on colchicine binding site of tubulin polymer was carefully investigated using molecular docking studies and interpretations between actives and inactive were explained.

Acyloxy-substituted α,β-unsaturated imines generated in situ from triazoles can act as aza-[4 C] synthons and be trapped by indoles in a stepwise [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction, thus providing rapid access to valuable pyrido[2,3-b]indoles in high yields. Attractive features of this reaction system include operational simplicity, readily available substrates, construction of sterically demanding quaternary centers, and convenient derivatization using triflate.
