, p. 9475 - 9480 (2013)
In this paper, we report the preparation and red-light-emitting behavior of benzothiadiazole-tris(alkyloxy)phenylethene dyes. In solution, we observed an efficient red light emission with high fluorescence quantum yields (up to 0.78). With increase in solvent polarity, the emission bands shifted to longer wavelengths accompanied by a large Stokes shift of up to 152 nm. A moderate fluorescence quantum yield of 0.52 could be achieved even in the polar solvent dimethylformamide. Red light emission with good fluorescence quantum yields (up to 0.50) was also observed in the bulk solid, liquid, and film state.
One-pot two-step synthesis of 4-vinylphenols from 4-hydroxy substituted benzaldehydes under microwave irradiation: a new perspective on the classical Knoevenagel-Doebner reaction

The classical Knoevenagel-Doebner reaction is reinvestigated wherein the direct synthesis of substituted 4-vinylphenols instead of the expected 4-hydroxycinnamic acids is described. The condensation reaction is performed on 4-hydroxy substituted benzaldehydes and malonic acid with a mixture of acetic acid-piperidine as condensing agent under focused microwave irradiation. The occurrence of simultaneous condensation-double decarboxylation without the use of any decarboxylating agent is a new finding, the reaction being facilitated solely by the hydroxy substituent and microwave irradiation effect.

Stilbene-based compounds are largely described for their antioxidant activity. But their use as anticancer chemotherapeutics is hampered by poor pharmacokinetic properties and non-selectivity towards cancer and non-cancer potency. To overcome these drawbacks, twin chain cationic lipid conjugated, methoxy-enriched stilbene derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer potency. Our findings reveal that HMSC16, a molecule with the highest number of methoxy groups and with C16-twin chain lipid, is the most potent as well as the most selective anticancer agent when compared to the other synthesized derivatives and commercially available stilbene-based drug, tamoxifen, and resveratrol. To justify these results, we have conducted a series of mechanistic experiments where we found that HMSC16 induced ROS generation, apoptosis, and autophagy by affecting the mitochondrial, lysosomal and nuclear pathways. Further cell cycle analysis data reveals that HMSC16 not only induces cell death but is also involved in the arrest of the cell cycle at the sub-G1 phase. Moreover, HMSC16 showed self-aggregation property owing to a possibly favorable hydrophilic-lipophilic balance. The self-aggregation property of HMSC16 allowed it to entrap hydrophobic drugs, withaferin. With entrapped withaferin, HMSC16 showed additive if not synergistic cell killing effect in HeLa cells. From the above results, we concluded that HMSC16 can be used not just as a drug but also as a drug delivery agent.

The enantioselective hydroboration of vinylarenes catalyzed by a chiral, nonracemic nickel catalyst is presented as a facile method for generating chiral benzylic boronate esters. Various vinylarenes react with bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2) in the presence of MeOH as a hydride source to form chiral boronate esters in up to 92% yield with up to 94% ee. The use of anhydrous Me4NF to activate B2pin2 is crucial for ensuring fast transmetalation to achieve high enantioselectivities.

A nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling has been achieved using (hetero)aryl bromides and vinyl acetate as the coupling partners. This mild, applicable method provides a reliable access to a variety of vinyl arenes, heteroarenes, and benzoheterocycles, which should expand the chemical space of precursors to fine chemicals and polymers. Importantly, a sustainable solvent, dimethyl isosorbide, is used, making this protocol more attractive from the point of view of green chemistry.
Synthesis, antiepileptic effects, and structure-activity relationships of α-asarone derivatives: In vitro and in vivo neuroprotective effect of selected derivatives

In the present study, we compared the antiepileptic effects of α-asarone derivatives to explore their structure-activity relationships using the PTZ-induced seizure model. Our research revealed that electron-donating methoxy groups in the 3,4,5-position on phenyl ring increased antiepileptic potency but the placement of other groups at different positions decreased activity. Besides, in allyl moiety, the optimal activity was reached with either an allyl or a 1-butenyl group in conjugation with the benzene ring. The compounds 5 and 19 exerted better neuroprotective effects against epilepsy in vitro (cell) and in vivo (mouse) models. This study provides valuable data for further exploration and application of these compounds as potential anti-seizure medicines.

The invention belongs to the field of organic synthesis, and discloses a ruthenium catalyzed synthesis method of primary amine. A ruthenium complex is taken as a catalyst; and a compound (A) and a compound (B) carry out reactions to obtain a compound (C); wherein R1 represents hydrogen or an alkyl group; R2 represents hydrogen or an alkyl group; R3 represent hydrogen, an alkyl group, or a phenyl group; R4 represent one of following structures shown in the description; n represents 0, 1, 2, or 3; R5 represents an alkyl group, an alkoxyl group, an ester group, a phenyl group, or a halogen atom,when n>=2, at least two R5(s) can be identical or different, m represents 0, 1, 2, or 3, R6 represents an alkyl group, an alkoxyl group, an ester group, or a halogen atom, and when m>=2, at least twoR6(s) can be identical or different. The method has the advantages of simple operation, mild conditions, small using amount of catalysts, wide substrate application range, no need of inert gas, and high yield.

Four homoallyl ortho-vinylaryl ketones (10a-d) – 1,8-dienes of sorts – were prepared by several approaches. In the presence of 1–2 mol-% Grubbs-II catalyst, they ring-closed to give 6,7-dihydrobenzocyclohepten-5-ones (11a-d) in 90–96 % yield. With SeO2 the parent compound (11a) delivered benzocyclohepten-5-one (13a) and/or selenium-containing compounds (18–22) but no more than traces of 6,7-benzotropolone (5a). However, 5a was accessible from compound 11a via the sodium enolate and allowing it to react with a stream of oxygen (43 % yield). The sodium enolates of the substituted 6,7-dihydrobenzocyclohepten-5-ones 11b–d and oxygen underwent analogous 4-electron oxidations. This furnished the substituted 6,7-benzotropolones 11b-d. In contrast, the corresponding lithium enolates were inert towards oxygen. The 6,7-dihydrobenzocyclohepten-5-one 11d was also accessed differently, namely by a Grubbs-II catalyst-mediated RCM/C=C migration tandem reaction of the allyl ortho-allylaryl ketone 73 – another 1,8-diene of sorts (90 % yield).

Polyene cyclizations offer rapid entry into terpenoid ring systems. Although enantioselective cyclizations of (E)-polyenes to form trans-decalin ring systems are well precedented, highly enantioselective cyclizations of (Z)-polyenes to form the correspond

A single-step, stereoselective protocol for the synthesis of unsymmetrically substituted (E)-3-allylideneoxindole and (E)-3-allylidenebenzofuran from readily accessible starting materials using palladium binaphthyl nanoparticles (Pd-BNPs) has been developed. Pd-BNP showing a wide range of functional group tolerance and an immense array of substrate scope have been explored with the successful synthesis of the drug molecule "tubulin polymerization inhibitor" free from trace metal impurities. The model reaction is extended to a gram-scale synthesis, and one of the products is utilized for derivatization. The Pd-BNP has been recycled up to 5 catalytic cycles without any loss in reaction yields and particle size of nanoparticles.
