Highly substituted fluorenones are readily prepared in mostly fair to good yields via metal- and additive-free TBHP-promoted cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) of readily accessible N-methyl-2-(aminomethyl)biphenyls and 2-(aminomethyl)biphenyls. This methodology is compatible with numerous functional groups (methoxy, cyano, nitro, chloro, and SEM and TBS-protective groups for phenols) and was further utilized in the first total synthesis of the natural product nobilone.

Treatment of N-(o-arylbenzyl)trifluoromethanesulfonamides with 1,3-diiodo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin in 1,2-dichloroethane under irradiation with a tungsten lamp, followed by the reaction with tBuOK gave the corresponding 6-arylphenanthridines and 6-unsubstituted phenanthridines in good to moderate yields, respectively. The reaction proceeds through an oxidative cyclization onto the aromatic ring by sulfonamidyl radicals formed from the N-iodosulfonamides. The present reaction is a one-pot method for the preparation of both 6-arylphenanthridines and 6-unsubstituted phenanthridines from N-(o-arylbenzyl)trifluoromethanesulfonamides under transition-metal-free conditions.

Herein, we report a metal-free and step-economic synthesis of phenanthridines from 2-biarylmethanamines under mild conditions. The reaction involves iodine-supported intramolecular C-H amination and oxidation of 5,6-dihydrophenanthridine under air and benign visible light. The mechanism study reveals that visible light plays a key role in both these steps.

5-HT7 receptor (5-HT7R) is a promising target for the treatment of depression and neuropathic pain. 5-HT7R antagonists exhibited antidepressant effects, while the agonists produced strong anti-hyperalgesic effects. In our efforts to discover selective 5-HT 7R antagonists or agonists, N-biphenylylmethyl 2- methoxyphenylpiperazinylalkanamides 1 were designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated against 5-HT7R. Among the synthesized compounds, N-2′-chlorobiphenylylmethyl 2- methoxyphenylpiperazinylpentanamide 1-8 showed the best binding affinity with a Ki value of 8.69 nM and it was verified as a novel antagonist according to functional assays. The compound 1-8 was very selective over 5-HT1DR, 5-HT2AR, 5-HT3R, 5-HT5AR and 5-HT6R and moderately selective over 5-HT1AR, 5-HT1BR and 5-HT2CR. The novel 5-HT7R antagonist 1-8 exhibited an antidepressant effect at a dose of 25 mg/kg in the forced swimming test in mice and showed a U-shaped dose-response curve which typically appears in 5-HT7R antagonists such as SB-269970 and lurasidone.

A series of 1-(biphenylmethylamidoalkyl)-pyrimidones has been designed as nanomolar inhibitors of recombinant lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 with high potency in whole human plasma. 5-(Pyrazolylmethyl) derivative 16 and 5-(methoxypyrimidinylmethyl) derivative 27 demonstrated excellent pharmacodynamic profiles which correlated well with their pharmacokinetic effects.
