The fusion of 1,2,4-triazole and 1,3,4-thiadiazole rings results in a class of heterocycles compounds with an extensive range of pharmacological properties. A series of 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,2,4-thiadiazoles was synthesized and tested for its enzyme inhibition potential and anticancer activity. The results show that 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,2,4-thiadiazoles display potent anticancer properties in vitro against a panel of cancer cells and in vivo efficacy in HT-29 human colon tumor xenograft in CB17 severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that KA25 and KA39 exhibit time-and concentration-dependent inhibition of Akt Ser-473 phosphorylation. Molecular modeling experiments indicated that 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,2,4-thiadiazoles bind well to the ATP binding site in Akt1 and Akt2. The low acute toxicity combined with in vitro and in vivo anticancer activity render triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazoles KA25, KA26, and KA39 promising cancer therapeutic agents.

An electrochemical method for the oxidative Z-selective C(sp2)-H chlorination of acrylamides has been developed. This catalyst and organic oxidant free method is applicable across various substituted tertiary acrylamides, and provides access to a broad range of synthetically useful Z-β-chloroacrylamides in good yields (22 examples, 73% average yield). The orthogonal derivatization of the products was demonstrated through chemoselective transformations and the electrochemical process was performed on gram scale in flow.

Structurally complex benzo- and spiro-fused N-polyheterocycles can be accessed via intramolecular Pd(0)-catalyzed alkene 1,2-aminoarylation reactions. The method uses N-(pentafluorobenzoyloxy)carbamates as the initiating motif, and this allows aza-Heck-type alkene amino-palladation in advance of C-H palladation of the aromatic component. The chemistry is showcased in the first total synthesis of the complex alkaloid (+)-pileamartine A, which has resulted in the reassignment of its absolute stereochemistry.

Background: Topoisomerase IIα (topIIα) maintains the topology of DNA in order to ensure the proper functioning of numerous DNA processes. Inhibition of topIIα leads to the killing of cancer cells thus constituting such inhibitors as useful tools in cancer therapeutics. Triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives are known for their wide range of pharmacological activities while previous studies have documented their in vitro anticancer activity. The purpose of the current study was to investigate if these chemical compounds can act as topIIα inhibitors in cell-free and cell-based systems. Materials and Methods: The MTT assay was performed in DLD-1, HT-29, and LoVo cancer cells so as to evaluate the antiproliferative activity of KA25, KA26, and KA39 triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives. The KA39 compound was tested as a potential topIIα inhibitor using the plasmid-based topoisomerase II drug screening kit. The inhibitory effect of the three derivatives on topIIα phosphorylation was studied in HT-29 and LoVo cancer cells according to Human Phospho-TOP2A/Topoisomerase II Alpha Cell-Based Phosphorylation ELISA Kit. Moreover, flow cytometry was utilized in order to explore apoptotic induction and cell cycle growth arrest, upon treatment with KA39, in DLD-1 and HT-29 cells, respectively. In silico studies were also carried out for further investigation. Results: All three triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives showed an in vitro antiproliferative effect with the KA39 compound being the most potent one. Our results indicated that KA39 induced both early and late apoptosis as well as cell cycle growth arrest in S phase. In addition, the compound blocked the relaxation of supercoiled DNA while it also inhibited topIIα phosphorylation (upon treatment; P0.001). Conclusion: Among the three triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives, KA39 was shown to be the most potent anticancer agent and catalytic inhibitor of topIIα phosphorylation as well.

A visible-light-promoted photochemical protocol is reported for the coupling of aryldiazoacetates with boronic acids. This photochemical reaction shows great enhancement compared to the same protocol performed in the absence of light. Except for a few cases, the room temperature coupling in the dark (thermal process) generally does not work. When it does, it is likely to also involve free carbenes as key intermediates. Alternatively, photochemical reactions show a broad scope, can be performed under air and tolerate a wide variety of functional groups. Reaction-evolution monitoring, DFT calculations and control experiments have been used to evaluate the main aspects of this intricate mechanistic scenario. Biologically active molecules Adiphenine, Benactyzine and Aprophen have been prepared as examples of synthetic applications.

A simple and flexible approach to 3-pyrrolin-2-one fused carbazoles is disclosed. The key step involves the BF3-mediated electrophilic substitution of indoles with N-alkyl-substituted 3-aryltetramic acids, which provides access to indole-substituted 3-pyrrolin-2-ones. Scholl-type oxidative cyclizations of these materials led to the formation of the corresponding 3-pyrrolin-2-one-fused benzo[a]carbazoles and indolo[2,3-a]carbazoles. This work represents the first synthesis of the benzo[a]pyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazol-3(8H)-one ring system, while the indolo[2,3-a]pyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazol-5-one ring system is found in a number of biologically active compounds including the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, staurosporine.

Mild heating of diazo compounds in DMSO furnishes ketone products in moderate to excellent yields. The reaction is particularly effective on electron-rich substrates and exhibits high chemoselectivity, allowing for the use of diazo compounds containing additional oxidation-prone functional groups. This straightforward protocol offers an alternate route to synthetically useful α-ketoesters from readily available aryl diazoacetates.

The synthesis and characterization of six new classes of higher-order superbases, including five that incorporate cyclopropenimine functionality, has been achieved. We propose a nomenclature that designates these as the CG2, GC2, PC3, PC1, C3, and GP2 classes of superbases. The pKBH+ values were measured to be between 29.0 and 35.6 in acetonitrile. Linear correlations of ten superbase basicities vs that of their substituents demonstrated the insulating effect of the cyclopropenimine core. The molecular structures of several of these materials were obtained by single-crystal X-ray analysis, revealing interesting aspects of conformational bias and noncovalent organization. The types of superbasic cores and substituents were each reliably shown to affect selectivity for deprotonation over alkylation. Higher-order cyclopropenimine and guanidine superbase stability to hydrolysis was found to correlate to basicity. Finally, a GC2 base was found to catalyze conjugate additions of α-aryl ester pronucleophiles, representing the first report of a neutral Br?nsted base to catalyze such reactions.
