The synthesis and in vitro evaluation of novel triazole-linked chloroquinoline derivatives as potential antiplasmodial agents against Plasmodium falciparum is reported. The 15 synthesized target compounds were obtained by means of a copper(I)-mediated click reaction between a variety of 1,2- and 1,3-azidoamines and 7-chloro-N-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)quinolin-4-amine in moderate to good yields (53-85%). The compounds were screened for antiplasmodial activity against NF54 chloroquine-sensitive and Dd2 chloroquine-resistant strains, alongside chloroquine and artesunate as reference compounds. Six of the test compounds revealed a 3-5 fold increase in antiplasmodial activity against chloroquine-resistant strain Dd2 compared to chloroquine. Among the six compounds with good antiplasmodial activity, a reduced cross-resistance relative to artesunate (>3 fold in comparison to chloroquine) was observed, mainly in derivatives that incorporated chloroquine-resistance reversing pharmacophores. A general trend for reduced chloroquine cross-resistance was also detected among 12 out of the 15 compounds tested.

A series of tris- and bis-sulfoxides were synthesized by multiple asymmetric oxidation of the corresponding sulfides. High enantioselectivities were obtained based on Horeau-type amplification of selectivity. Naphthyl-substituted sulfoxides allowed for higher selectivity and greater ease of purification. These sulfoxides were tested as ligands in rhodium-catalyzed olefin hydroacylation and 1,4-addition of phenyl boronic acid to 2-cyclohexen-1-one. While no enantioinduction was observed in hydroacylation, up to 80% ee was obtained for a tris-sulfoxide and a bis-sulfoxide ligand in the 1,4-addition. Bis-sulfoxides with flexible backbones gave lower and inversed enantioselectivity, suggesting backbone rigidity plays a key role in enantioinduction.
Pheromones and analogs from Neozeleboria wasps and the orchids that seduce them: a versatile synthesis of 2,5-dialkylated 1,3-cyclohexanediones

Chiloglottone, a wasp pheromone and attractant of sexually deceptive Chiloglottis orchids, and several structural analogs were synthesized. The synthetic approach is facile, high yielding and versatile, enabling rapid divergence to generate dialkylated analogs of chiloglottone. The key transformation was an organocadmium-mediated desymmetrization of glutaric anhydride derivatives. This library of synthetic 2,5-dialkylated 1,3-cyclohexanediones may assist in future identification of natural products in further species.
