Alkaline phosphatases (ALPs) are membrane bound metalloenzymes, distributed all over the body. Recent studies have revealed that by targeting ALPs can lead towards the treatment of many deadliest diseases including cardiac, cancerous and brain diseases. Thioureas and their derivatives are of considerable significance and are privileged scaffolds in medicinal chemistry. They show a wide range of pharmacological activities such as antibacterial, antiparasitic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidants etc. On the other hand, salicylic acid and its derivatives are known for its broad spectrum of activities. The work presented comprises of synthesis of N-acyl-N'-aryl substituted bisthioureas of pimelic acid (1–7) and 3,5-dimethyl pyrazole (11), 1-aroyl-3-aryl thiourea (12) and 1,3,4-oxadiazole (13) derivatives of 4-methyl salicylic acid. Structures of all the synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR and 1H NMR spectroscopic analysis. Synthesized compounds were evaluated for their alkaline phosphatases inhibition potential and exhibited high potency as well as selectivity towards h-TNAP and h-IAP. Compound 7 and 12 which were the bisthiourea derivative of pimmelic acid and thiourea derivative of 4-methyl salicylic acid, respectively, showed excellent selectivity against h-TNAP and h-IAP, respectively.

A decarboxylative borylation of aliphatic acids for the synthesis of a variety of alkylboronates has been developed by mixing m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA)-activated fatty acids with bis(catecholato)diboron in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) at room temperature. A radical chain process is involved in the reaction which initiates from the B-B bond homolysis followed by the radical transfer from the boron atom to the carbon atom with subsequent decarboxylation and borylation.

We recently identified AG1, a small-molecule activator that functions by promoting oligomerization of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) to the catalytically competent forms. Biochemical experiments indicate that the activation of G6PD by the original hit molecule (AG1) is noncovalent and that one C2-symmetric region of the G6PD homodimer is important for ligand function. Consequently, the disulfide in AG1 is not required for activation of G6PD, and a number of analogues were prepared without this reactive moiety. Our study supports a mechanism of action whereby AG1 bridges the dimer interface at the structural nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) binding sites of two interacting G6PD monomers. Small molecules that promote G6PD oligomerization have the potential to provide a first-in-class treatment for G6PD deficiency. This general strategy could be applied to other enzyme deficiencies in which control of oligomerization can enhance enzymatic activity and/or stability.

Abstract: Synthesis of thermotropic liquid crystalline polyesters derived from bis[4-hydroxy benzoyloxy]-2-chloro-1,4-benzene (BHBOCB) and aliphatic dicarboxylic acid chlorides by interfacial polycondensation methodology is presented. Synthesised polyesters consist of bis[4-hydroxy benzoyloxy]-2-chloro-1,4-benzene as a mesogen and aliphatic diacid chloride as flexible spacer. The length of oligomethylene units in the polymer was varied from the trimethylene to the dodecamethylene groups. Synthesized polyesters were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry and optical microscopy. The transition temperatures and thermodynamic properties were studied for all these polymers. These polyesters exhibited thermotropic liquid crystalline behavior and showed nematic texture except decamethylene spacer. Decamethylene spacer based polyester showed marble texture of smectic C. Mesophase stability of these polyesters was higher than 123 °C (except first heating cycle of PE-1). Graphical Abstract:: SYNOPSIS The present study deals with the synthesis of thermotropic liquid crystalline polyesters derived from bis[4-hydroxy benzoyloxy]-2-chloro-1,4-benzene (BHBOCB) and aliphatic dicarboxylic acid chlorides by interfacial polycondensation methodology.

A new application of flavin derivatives in visible light photocatalysis was found. 1-Butyl-7,8-dimethoxy-3-methylalloxazine, when irradiated by visible light, was shown to allow an efficient cyclobutane ring formation via an intramolecular [2+2] cycloaddition of both styrene dienes, considered as electron-rich substrates, and electron-poor bis(arylenones), presumably proceeding via an energy transfer mechanism.

Homodimers of dopamine D2-like receptors are suggested to be of particular importance in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and, thus, serve as promising targets for the discovery of atypical antipsychotics. This study describes the development of a series of novel bivalent molecules with a pharmacophore derived from the dopamine receptor antagonist haloperidol. These dimers were investigated in comparison to their monomeric analogues for their D2long, D2short, D3, and D4 receptor binding and the ability to bridge two neighboring receptor protomers. Radioligand binding studies provided diagnostic insights when Hill slopes close to two for the bivalent ligand 13 incorporating 22 spacer atoms and a comparative analysis with monovalent control ligands indicated a bivalent binding mode with a simultaneous occupancy of two neighboring binding sites.

Sinomenine (1) is clinically available for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), however, its efficacy is quite weak. In the present study, a library of novel sinomenine-based homodimers and monomers through variable-length linkers were designed and synthesized, and their bioactivities were evaluated using RAW264.7 cells and mice. Among the compounds, 2f and 3b possessed much more potent inhibitory effects on the production of nitric oxide (NO), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) than 1. Preliminary mechanism investigation revealed that 3b inhibited nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway specifically, 2f suppressed both NF-κB and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades. Moreover, 3b and 2f significantly alleviated the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mortality. These two compounds might serve as valuable candidates for anti-inflammatory drug discovery.

The preparation of N,N′-diarylalkanediamides from the respective aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and 4-nitroaniline via microwave-prompted reactions is presented. The most positive effect of microwave irradiation was observed for N,N′-bis(4-nitrophenyl)butanediamide. Anion binding studies on the obtained diamides were carried out in DMSO and acetonitrile using UV-vis and 1H NMR spectroscopy. A mechanism for selective fluoride recognition by N,N′-bis(4-nitrophenyl)butanediamide in DMSO is proposed.
