An atom- and step-economy protocol has been developed to synthesize some new biologically active pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline alkaloids via redox mediation system under visible light irradiation. A vast variety of double and triple bonds, as dipolarophiles, treated with in situ generated azomethine ylides to prepare corresponding products in good to excellent yields. This metal-free method effectively promoted oxidation/[3 + 2] cycloaddition/oxidative/aromatization domino reaction without further oxidant using dual organic dyes as pseudo-redox mediation system. Besides, for most of the products, product precipitate was readily separated from reaction media. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of dual dyes as a pseudo-redox mediation system.

Lymphomas (cancers of the lymphatic system) account for 12% of malignant diseases worldwide. Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL) is a rare form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in which the cancer starts in the immune B-cells. We report the synthesis and preliminary studies on the antiproliferative activity of a library of 9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene based compounds structurally related to the antidepressant drug maprotiline against BL cell lines MUTU-1 and DG- 75. Structural modifications were achieved by Diels-Alder reaction of the core 9-(2- nitrovinyl)anthracene with number of dienophiles including maleic anhydride, maleimides, acrylonitrile and benzyne. The antiproliferative activity of these compounds was evaluated in BL cell lines EBV? MUTU-1 and EBV+ DG-75 (chemoresistant). The most potent compounds 13j, 15, 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d and 19a displayed IC50 values in the range 0.17–0.38 μM against the BL cell line EBV? MUTU-1 and IC50 values in the range 0.45–0.78 μM against the chemoresistant BL cell line EBV+ DG- 75. Compounds 15, 16b and 16c demonstrated potent ROS dependent apoptotic effects on the BL cell lines which were superior to the control drug taxol and showed minimal cytotoxicity to peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The results suggest that this class of compounds merits further investigation as antiproliferative agents for BL.

Adenylate cyclases (ACs), play a critical role in the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) into the second messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Studies have indicated that adenylyl cyclase type 2 (AC2) is potential drug target for many diseases, however, up to now, there is no AC2-selective agonist reported. In this research, docking-based virtual screening with the combination of cell-based biological assays have been performed for discovering novel potent and selective AC2 agonists. Virtual screening disclosed a novel hit compound 8 as an AC2 agonist with EC50 value of 8.10 μM on recombinant human hAC2 + HEK293 cells. The SAR (structure activity relationship) based on the derivatives of compound 8 was further explored on recombinant AC2 cells and compound 73 was found to be the most active agonist with the EC50 of 90 nM, which is 160-fold more potent than the reported agonist Forskolin and could selectively activate AC2 to inhibit the expression of Interleukin-6. The discovery of a new class of AC2-selective agonists would provide a novel chemical probe to study the physiological function of AC2.

Nickel(II) tetraphenylporphyrin (NiTPP) is presented as a robust, cost-effective and efficient visible light induced photoredox catalyst. The ground state electrochemical data (CV) and electronic absorption (UV-Vis) spectra reveal the excited state redox potentials for [NiTPP]*/[NiTPP].? and NiTPP].+/[NiTPP]* couples as +1.17 V and ?1.57 V vs SCE respectively. The potential values represent NiTPP as a more potent photocatalyst compare to the well-explored [Ru(bpy)3]2+. The non-precious photocatalyst exhibits excited state redox reactions in dual fashions, i. e., it is capable of undergoing both oxidative as well as reductive quenching pathways. Such versatility of a photocatalyst based on first-row transition metals is very scarce. This unique phenomenon allows one to perform diverse types of redox reactions by employing a single catalyst. Two different sets of chemical reactions have been performed to represent the synthetic utility. The catalyst showed superior efficiency in both carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond-forming reactions. Thus, we believe that NiTPP is a valuable addition to the photocatalyst library and this study will lead to more practical synthetic applications of earth-abundant-metal-based photoredox catalysts.

A iron-catalyzed free radical cascade reaction of allyl alcohols with N-substituted maleimides for accessing poly-substituted γ-butyrolactones has been developed. In this protocol, various allyl alcohols can open N-substituted maleimide rings to form allyl ester intermediates, and the allyl ester intermediates can be converted into an allyl ester alkyl radicals and undergo intramolecular free radical addition cyclization to form a polysubstituted γ-butyrolactones. In this protocol, spiro γ-butyrolactone compounds can be also synthesized. Meanwhile, the strategy could be applied to further construct a fully substituted tetrahydrofuran. The reaction is not sensitive to oxygen or moisture and has been performed on gram-scale. (Figure presented.).

A very low amount of organic dye (Alizarin red S) sensitized TiO2 and it was successfully used to catalyze cascade C(sp3)-H to C(sp2)-H bond formation/cyclization reactions under visible light irradiation. The modified TiO2 photocatalyst efficiently, for the first time, advanced [4+2] cyclization of N,N-dimethylanilines and maleimides to the corresponding tetrahydroquinolines in air atmosphere. The reaction proceeds through α-amino radicals without additional oxidant at ambient temperature to afford products in good to excellent yields.

A convenient and eco-friendly synthesis of various fused N-heterocyclic compounds through catalyst and additive-free 1,3 dipolar cycloadditions of quinolinium imides with olefins, maleimides, and benzynes in excellent yields and diastereoselectivities is reported. The thermally controlled diastereoselective [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between quinolinium imides and olefins provided cis-isomers at low temperature and trans-isomers at high temperature. A reaction between quinolinium imides with substituted maleimides gave four-ring-fused N-heterocyclic compounds in high yields as a single diastereomer. The aryne precursors also provided four-ring-fused N,N′-heterocyclic compounds in high yields. The in vitro antiplasmodial activity of selected molecules revealed that this class of molecules possesses potential for ongoing studies against malaria.

Nano-sized CdS was successfully prepared, fully characterized and applied as a highly efficient reusable photocatalyst for the synthesis of pyrrolo[3,4-c]quinolone and pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline-8-carboxylate derivatives through a condensation reaction of N,N-dimethylanilines or alkyl 2-(3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl)acetates with maleimides via a C-H activation approach under benign and eco-friendly conditions at room temperature without using any solvent and oxidant under visible light irradiation. Besides, the prepared photocatalyst has been successfully applied for the condensation reaction of N,N-dimethylanilines with alkyl but-2-ynedioates or phenyl acetylenes for the synthesis of novel 1,2-dihydroquinoline-3,4-dicarboxylate and aryl-1,2-dihydroquinoline derivatives for the first time. Using this method, all favourable products were obtained in good yields and relatively short reaction times under benign conditions with the application of visible light irradiation, a renewable energy source. The catalyst was easily recovered and reused several times without any loss of its activity.

A series of novel molecules 5a-g containing N-aryl maleimide and α-hydroxyphosphonate moieties were synthesized. A distinct approach for high-yielding synthesis of α-hydroxyphosphonates has been discovered using various catalyst and solvents. The structures of the synthesized compounds were elucidated by IR, NMR, MS and CHN analysis. All the synthesized compounds were tested for qualitative (Zone of inhibition) and quantitative (MIC) antimicrobial activities against two pathogenic bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis (NCIM 2250) and Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922) and four pathogenic fungi such as Candida albicans (MTCC 277), Candida tropicalis (MTCC184), Aspergillus niger (MCIM 545) and Aspergillus clavatus (MTCC 132). The investigation of antimicrobial screening data revealed that most of the tested compounds are moderate to good microbial inhibitors.
