Non-toxic, highly active and robust complexes are the holy grail as ideal green catalysts for the polymerisation of biorenewable and biodegradable polylactide. Four new zinc guanidine complexes [ZnCl2(TMG4NMe2asme)], [ZnCl2(TMG5Clasme)], [ZnCl2(TMG5Measme)] and [ZnCl2(TMG5NMe2asme)] with different electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups on the ligand's aromatic backbone have been synthesised. Ligands are derived from low-cost commercially available compounds and have been converted by a three- or four-step synthesis process into the desired ligand in good yields. The compounds have been fully characterised and tested in the ROP of rac-LA under industrially relevant conditions. The complexes are based on the recently published structure [ZnCl2(TMGasme)] which has shown high activity in the polymerisation of lactide at 150 °C. Different substituents in the para-position of the guanidine moiety significantly increase the polymerisation rate whereas positioning substituents in the meta-position causes no change in the reaction rate. With molecular weights over 71000 g mol-1 being achievable, the best system produces polymers for multiple industrial applications and its polymerisation rate approaches that of Sn(Oct)2. The robust systems are able to polymerise non-purified lactide. The initiation of the polymerisation is suggested to occur due to impurities in the monomer.

A facile and direct electrocatalytic C-C bond cleavage/functionalization reaction of isatins was developed. With isatins as the amino-attached C1 sources, a variety of aminobenzoates, and aminobenzamides were synthesized in moderate to good yields under mild conditions.

Inspired by the natural product evodiamine, a novel antitumor indolopyrazinoquinazolinone scaffold was designed by scaffold hopping. Structure-activity relationship studies led to the discovery of compound 15j, which shows low nanomolar inhibitory activity against the HCT116 cell line. Further antitumor mechanism studies indicated that compound 15j acted by the dual inhibition of topoisomerase 1 and tubulin and induced apoptosis with G2 cell-cycle arrest. The quaternary ammonium salt of compound 15j (compound 15js) exhibited excellent in vivo antitumor activity (TGI = 66.6%) in the HCT116 xenograft model with low toxicity. Indolopyrazinoquinazolinone derivatives represent promising multitargeting antitumor leads for the development of novel antitumor agents.

An efficient and practical isatin-based oxidative domino protocol has been developed for the facile synthesis of 2-aminobenzamides and 2-aminobenzoates. The robust nature of this reaction system is reflected by accessible starting materials, room temperature and high-yield gram-scale synthesis.

In search of myosin II inhibitors with superior research tool properties, a chemical optimization campaign of the blebbistatin scaffold was conducted in this paper. (S)-Blebbistatin is the best known small-molecule inhibitor of myosin II ATPase activity. Unfortunately, as a research tool this compound has several deficiencies: it is photolabile and (photo)toxic, has low water solubility, and its (fluorescent) precipitates interfere in (fluorescence) readouts. In view of obtaining tool compounds with improved properties, both enantiomers of a series of D-ring modified polar analogs were prepared. We identified (S)-3′-hydroxyblebbistatin (S)-2 and (S)-3′-aminoblebbistatin (S)-3 as two myosin II inhibitors with a 30-fold higher water solubility than (S)-blebbistatin. These molecules furthermore do not cause interference in (fluorescence) readouts. (S)-2 and (S)-3 thus are superior alternatives to (S)-blebbistatin as research tools to study myosin II.

The present application provides novel optionally substituted fused pyridine and pyrimidine bicyclic compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Also provided are methods for preparing these compounds. These compounds are useful in co-regulating FAK and/or Src activity by administering a therapeutically effective amount of one or more of the compounds to a subject. By doing so, these compounds are effective in treating conditions associated with the dysregulation of the FAK and/or Src pathway. Advantageously, these compounds perform as dual FAK and/or Src inhibitors. A variety of conditions can be treated using these compounds and include diseases which are characterized by inflammation or abnormal cellular proliferation. In one embodiment, the disease is cancer.

Metal-free O-arylation and [3, 3]-rearrangement have been shown as an efficient strategy to construct new C-O and C-N bonds in one-pot reactions. The method was used to prepare N-aryl benzo[1,2,3]triazin-4(1H)-one derivatives in good yields from N-hydroxy benzo[1,2,3]triazin-4(3H)-one and diaryliodonium salts. The reaction was tolerated a variety of sensitive functional groups such as iodine, nitro, ester, and aldehyde groups. A rational mechanism was proposed based on the experimental results, and the reaction was easily up to gram scale.

Palladium-catalyzed oxidative coupling of 2-vinylanilines and isocyanides constitutes a direct, facile, and efficient approach to 2-aminoquinolines. The procedure, employing palladium acetate and silver carbonate, is attractive in terms of assembly efficiency, functional group tolerance, and operational simplicity. A variety of 2-aminoquinolines were prepared in good to excellent yields.

Blebbistatin, the best characterized myosin II-inhibitor, is commonly used to study the biological roles of various myosin II isoforms. Despite its popularity, the use of blebbistatin is greatly hindered by its blue-light sensitivity, resulting in phototo
