A total of forty novel glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) derivatives were designed and synthesized. The cytotoxic activity of the novel compounds was tested against two human breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231) in vitro by the MTT method. The evaluation results revealed that, in comparison with GA, compound 42 shows the most promising anticancer activity (IC50 1.88 ± 0.20 and 1.37 ± 0.18 μM for MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, respectively) and merits further exploration as a new anticancer agent.

Curcuminoids have been reported to possess multiple bioactivities, such as antioxidant, anticancer and anti-inflammatory properties. Three novel series of curcuminoid derivatives (11a-h, 15a-h and 19a-d) with enhanced bioactivity have been synthesized. Among the synthesized compounds, 11b exhibited the most significant activity with an MIC of 0.5 μ M /mL against selected medically important Gram-positive cocci (S aureus and S viridans) and Gram-negative bacilli (E. coli and E. cloacae). The derivatives exhibited remarkable results in an antioxidant test with an IC50 2.4- to 9.3-folder smaller than curcuminoids. With respect to antiproliferative activity against Hep-G2, LX-2, SMMC7221 and MDA-MB-231, the derivatives exhibited an effect stronger than curcuminoids with an IC50 ranging from 0.18 to 4.25 μ M.

L-Selenomethionine and L-selenocystine were prepared in high overall yields from protected L-glutamic and L-aspartic acid derivatives respectively.Irradiation of the mixed anhydrides (esters) derived from 4 (e.g. 15) in the presence of dimethyldiselenide provided the protected L-selenomethionine 16 directly.We have shown that triselenocyanide Se3(CN)2 can serve as an efficient selenocyanating agent for radicals; the selenocyanide group is a good precursor for the diselenide moiety of L-selenocystine.
