An efficient synthesis of 2-aroylbenzofurans, rugchalcones A, B and their derivatives was accomplished in excellent yields by the Rap–Stoermer reaction between substituted salicylaldehydes and phenacyl bromides. Later their anti-inflammatory effects were evaluated in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW-264.7 macrophages. The compounds were exhibited exceptional potency against inflammatory mediated NO production with no cytotoxicity at 10?μM concentration and IC50values are found in the range from 0.75 to 13.27?μM. Among the 2-aroylbenzofurans prepared in this study, compounds 4 (99.6%; IC50?=?0.57), rugchalcone B (2) (99.3%; IC50?=?4.13), 7 (96.8%; IC50?=?1.90) and 8 (74.3%; IC50?=?0.99) were showed the maximum inhibitory activity. This study suggests that compounds 2, 4, 7 and 8 which are having 4-hydroxyphenyl group and/or hydroxy (–OH) group at 5- and/or 6-position of benzofuran motif could be considered as a promising scaffolds for the further development of iNOS inhibitors for potential anti-inflammatory applications.

The need for developing real disease-modifying drugs against neurodegenerative syndromes, particularly Alzheimer's disease (AD), shifted research towards reliable drug discovery strategies to unveil clinical candidates with higher therapeutic efficacy than single-targeting drugs. By following the multi-target approach, we designed and synthesized a novel class of dual acetylcholinesterase (AChE)-monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitors through the decoration of the 2H-chromen-2-one skeleton. Compounds bearing a propargylamine moiety at position 3 displayed the highest in vitro inhibitory activities against MAO-B. Within this series, derivative 3h emerged as the most interesting hit compound, being a moderate AChE inhibitor (IC50 = 8.99 μM) and a potent and selective MAO-B inhibitor (IC50 = 2.8 nM). Preliminary studies in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell lines demonstrated its low cytotoxicity and disclosed a promising neuroprotective effect at low doses (0.1 μM) under oxidative stress conditions promoted by two mitochondrial toxins (oligomycin-A and rotenone). In a Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK)II-MDR1 cell-based transport study, Compound 3h was able to permeate the BBB-mimicking monolayer and did not result in a glycoprotein-p (P-gp) substrate, showing an efflux ratio = 0.96, close to that of diazepam.

Plasmodium falciparum glycogen synthase kinase-3 (PfGSK-3) has been identified as a potential target for the development of novel drugs against multi-drug resistant malaria. A series of benzofuran-based compounds was synthesised and evaluated as inhibitors of recombinantly expressed and purified PfGSK-3 and human glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (HsGSK-3β). Of this series, five compounds (5k, 5m, 5p, 5r, 5s) preferentially inhibited PfGSK-3, with four of these compounds exhibiting IC50 values in the sub-micromolar range (0.00048–0.440 μM). Evaluation of the structure-activity relationships required for PfGSK-3 selective inhibition indicated that a C6-OCH3 substitution on ring A is preferred, while the effect of the ring B substituent on activity, in decreasing order is: C4′-CN > C4′-F > C3′-OCH3 > C3′,4′-diCl. To date, development of PfGSK-3 inhibitors has been limited to the 4-phenylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine class. Chalcone-based scaffolds, such as the benzofurans described herein, are promising new hits which can be explored for future design of PfGSK-3 selective inhibitors.
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.
Anchimerically Assisted Selective Cleavage of Acid-Labile Aryl Alkyl Ethers by Aluminum Triiodide and N, N-Dimethylformamide Dimethyl Acetal

Aluminum triiodide is harnessed by N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMF-DMA) for the selective cleavage of ethers via neighboring group participation. Various acid-labile functional groups, including carboxylate, allyl, tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBS), and tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc), suffer the conditions intact. The method offers an efficient approach to cleaving catechol monoalkyl ethers and to uncovering phenols from acetal-type protecting groups such as methoxymethyl (MOM), methoxyethoxymethyl (MEM), and tetrahydropyranyl (THP) chemoselectively.

, (2019/12/25)
A series of fourteen methoxy substituted 2-benzoyl-1-benzofuran derivatives were synthesised and their affinities determined for adenosine A1 and A2A receptors via radioligand binding assays to establish the structure activity relationships pertinent for A1 and A2A affinity. Compound 3j (6,7-dimethoxybenzofuran-2-yl)(3-methoxyphenyl)methanone exhibited A1 affinity (A1Ki (rat) = 6.880 μM) as well as A2A affinity (A2AKi (rat) = 0.5161 μM). Compounds 3a–b & 3i–k exhibited selective affinity towards A1 with Ki values below 10 μM. The results indicate that C6,7-diOCH3 substitution on ring A in combination with meta (C3′)–OCH3 substitution on ring B is beneficial for A1 and A2A affinity and activity. Compounds 3a–b & 3j–k showed low cytotoxicity. Upon in vitro and in silico evaluation, compound 3j may be considered lead-like (i.e. a molecular entity suitable for optimization) and, thus, of value in the design of novel, potent and selective adenosine A1 and A2A receptor antagonists.
