Visible Light-Promoted Aryl Azoline Formation over Mesoporous Organosilica as Heterogeneous Photocatalyst

N-heterocyclic compounds demonstrate wide applications ranging from natural compound production to coordination chemistry. Usually, the synthesis of N-heterocyclic compounds is conducted under thermal conditions, mostly by Lewis acids or metal-containing compounds as molecular catalysts. Here, we report a photocatalytic route for aryl azoline formation by mesoporous organosilica as visible light-active and heterogeneous photocatalyst. Via formation of aromatic aldehydes with various amines, 2-phenyl-2-imidazoline, 2-phenyl-2-oxazoline, 2-phenyl-2-thiazoline and their derivatives could be formed with high conversion and selectivity. Additionally, the organosilica photocatalyst showed high stability and reusability.

Willgerodt–Kindler reaction-driven one pot solventless entry to 2-oxazolines

We report an efficient and green protocol for the synthesis of 2-oxazolines by the reaction of aromatic nitriles with β-aminoalcohols using sulfur under solvent-free conditions. The reaction occurs via the Willgerodt-Kindler mechanism followed by transami

Facile one-pot synthesis of 2-oxazoline

We developed a facile one-pot synthesis of 2-oxazolines from carboxylic acid and 2-chloroethyl isocyanate, involving amide bond formation and a following intramolecular cyclization using 4-dimethylaminopyridine as the catalyst. A large variety of functional groups are well tolerated by the mild reaction conditions to afford diverse 2-oxazolines in good to excellent yields. This reaction will keep the chirality of the isocyanate at position 1, the R2 substituted carbon. Microwave-assisted synthesis can further enhance the reaction yield and reduce the reaction time to 5 min. This method facilities the synthesis of 2-oxazolines for diverse applications, such as 2-oxazoline derived polymers and materials.

Ultrasound-Accelerated, Concise, and Highly Efficient Synthesis of 2-Oxazoline Derivatives Using Heterogenous Calcium Ferrite Nanoparticles and Their DFT Studies

A rapid and operationally simple approach for synthesising biologically relevant 2-oxazoline derivatives has been developed through highly efficient ultrasound-promoted coupling reactions of thioamides and amino alcohols using calcium ferrite nanoparticles as heterogeneous catalysts. The major advantage of using ultrasound irradiation lies in the drastic reduction of reaction time as compared with conventional stirring. Furthermore, quantum chemical investigations for the synthesised 2-oxazoline derivatives have been carried out at the DFT/B3LYP/6-311 + G (d, p) level of theory to predict the optimized geometry. The molecular properties such as bond lengths, bond orders, Milliken charges, frontier molecular orbitals, global reactivity descriptors, molecular electrostatic potential map, and thermodynamic parameters of all the compounds have also been reported at the same level of theory.

Alkyl Chain Length in Poly(2-oxazoline)-Based Amphiphilic Gradient Copolymers Regulates the Delivery of Hydrophobic Molecules: A Case of the Biodistribution and the Photodynamic Activity of the Photosensitizer Hypericin

Self-assembled nanostructures of amphiphilic gradient copoly(2-oxazoline)s have recently attracted attention as promising delivery systems for the effective delivery of hydrophobic anticancer drugs. In this study, we have investigated the effects of increasing hydrophobic side chain length on the self-assembly of gradient copolymers composed of 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline as the hydrophilic comonomer and various 2-(4-alkyloxyphenyl)-2-oxazolines as hydrophobic comonomers. We show that the size of the formed polymeric nanoparticles depends on the structure of the copolymers. Moreover, the stability and properties of the polymeric assembly can be affected by the loading of hypericin, a promising compound for photodiagnostics and photodynamic therapy (PDT). We have found the limitation that allows rapid or late release of hypericin from polymeric nanoparticles. The nanoparticles entering the cells by endocytosis decreased the hypericin-induced PDT, and the contribution of the passive process (diffusion) increased the probability of a stronger photoeffect. A study of fluorescence pharmacokinetics and biodistribution revealed differences in the release of hypericin from nanoparticles toward the quail chorioallantoic membrane, a preclinical model for in vivo studies, depending on the composition of polymeric nanoparticles. Photodamage induced by PDT in vivo well correlated with the in vitro results. All formulations studied succeeded in targeting hypericin at cancer cells. In conclusion, we demonstrated the promising potential of poly(2-oxazoline)-based gradient copolymers for effective drug delivery and sequential drug release needed for successful photodiagnostics and PDT in cancer therapy.

Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Oxidative Cyclization of Oxazolines with Cyclopropanols: Synthesis of Isoindolinones

The synthesis of C3-substituted isoindolin-1-ones from oxazolines and cyclopropanols has been achieved with oxazoline as a bifunctional nucleophilic directing group. The reaction proceeds by the cleavage of three chemical bonds and allows the formation of three new chemical bonds, a C-N bond, a C-C bond, and a C-O bond, in a single step.

Insights into the antiproliferative mechanism of (C^N)-chelated half-sandwich iridium complexes

Transition metal-based anticancer compounds, as an alternative to platinum derivatives, are raising scientific interest as they may present distinct although poorly understood mechanisms of action. We used a structure-activity relationship-based methodology to investigate the chemical and biological features of a series of ten (C^N)-chelated half-sandwich iridiumIII complexes of the general formula [IrCp?(phox)Cl], where (phox) is a 2-phenyloxazoline ligand forming a 5-membered metallacycle. This series of compounds undergoes a fast exchange of their chlorido ligand once solubilised in DMSO. They were cytotoxic to HeLa cells with IC50 values in the micromolar range and induced a rapid activation of caspase-3, an apoptosis marker. In vitro, the oxidative power of all the complexes towards NADH was highlighted but only the complexes bearing substituents on the oxazoline ring were able to produce H2O2 at the micromolar range. However, we demonstrated using a powerful HyPer protein redox sensor-based flow cytometry assay that most complexes rapidly raised intracellular levels of H2O2. Hence, this study shows that oxidative stress can partly explain the cytotoxicity of these complexes on the HeLa cell line and gives a first entry to their mechanism of action. This journal is

Highly efficient synthesis of β-nitrate ester carboxamides through the ring-opening of 2-oxazolines

A novel method for the synthesis of β-nitrate ester carboxamides using non-corrosive tert-butyl nitrite (TBN) as the nitro source and easily available oxygen as the oxidant has been developed. Variously substituted 2-oxazolines were efficiently ring-opened to deliver the corresponding products in excellent yields. Notably, this reaction provides fast access to pharmaceuticals such as nicorandil.
