Vicinal diaryl azole-based urea derivatives as potential cholesterol lowering agents acting through inhibition of SOAT enzymes

A novel series of vicinal diaryl azole-urea derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their potential to inhibit SOAT enzyme. Among the reported compounds, compound (12d) emerged as the most potent compound with an IC50value of 2.43?μM. In polaxamer-407 induced lipoprotein lipase inhibition model, compound (12d) reduced triglyceride turnover in?vivo. Compound (12d) also showed dose-dependent prevention of serum total cholesterol and prevention of LDL-C elevation at a dose of 30?mg/kg. Furthermore, compound (12d) showed potential to stop falling levels of serum HDL-C dose-dependently and improved the atherogenic index. Effect of 12d on body weight, plaque formation and development of atherogenic lesions were studied. Toxicological study of compound (12d) indicated that at a dose of 2000?mg/kg, 12d was devoid of any signs of toxicity or mortality.

Ascorbic Acid Promoted Oxidative Arylation of Vinyl Arenes to 2-Aryl Acetophenones without Irradiation at Room Temperature under Aerobic Conditions

A convenient and general protocol for oxidative arylation of vinyl arenes by aryl radicals generated in situ from arene diazonium fluoroborates promoted by ascorbic acid in air at room temperature has been developed in the absence of any additive and visible light irradiation. A series of diversely substituted 2-aryl acetophenones have been obtained in good yields by this procedure.

A new class of "electro-acid/base"-induced reversible methyl ketone colour switches

Methyl ketone has been designed as a switching unit for electrically addressable molecular colour switches. A newly proposed mechanism of "electro-acid/base" (radical ions)-induced intermolecular proton transfer for the colour switch is proven clearly by cyclic voltammetry (CV), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and in situ UV-Vis spectroscopy. A dramatic spectral absorption shift (about 291 nm) is observed during the switching, and blue, yellow and green colours are obtained by adjusting the substituents on the methyl ketone-bridged unit. The in situ "electro-acid/base" is far more convenient than the conventional chemical stimulus of acids or bases for the manipulation of the molecular switching properties. This new switching method and molecular structure manipulation will inspire and accelerate the further development of broad switching materials and applications in ultrathin flexible displays, etc.

Friedel-Crafts acylation of aromatic compounds with carboxylic acids in the presence of P2O5/SiO2 under heterogeneous conditions

A convenient and efficient procedure for the Friedel-Crafts acylation of aromatic compounds with carboxylic acids in the presence of P2O5/SiO2 is described. Both aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids reacted easily to afford the corresponding aromatic ketones. The use of non-toxic and inexpensive materials, simple and clean work-up, short reaction times and good yields of the products are the advantages of this method.

Synthesis, antileukemic and antiplatelet activities of 2,3-diaryl-6,7-dihydro-5H-1,4-diazepines

The synthesis, antileukemic and antiplatelet activity evaluation of 2,3-diaryl-6,7-dihydro-5H-1,4-diazepines are described. In general, it was found that compound 17o showed moderate antileukemic activity against MOLT3 human leukemic cancer cell lines. An arachidonic acid induced platelet aggregation effect on washed rat platelets was studied. Compound 17i was found to be the most potent. The antiplatelet properties may be mediated by interference with the arachidonic acid pathway.

An efficient and time saving microwave-assisted selenium dioxide oxidation of 1,2-diarylethanones

Selenium dioxide oxidation of 1,2-diarylethanones to corresponding diones by conventional method takes upto 8 hr. The same oxidation under microwave radiations using dimethylsulfoxide as solvent reduces the reaction time considerably (30 to 90 sec). The method reported is efficient and time saving.

Synthesis of novel substituted diaryl-1,4-diazepines

In this paper a convenient route to new 2,3-diaryl-substituted 1,4-diazepines is described through cyclization of ethanedione derivatives and 1,3-propanediamine. The ethanedione derivatives required were synthesized by microwave-assisted oxidation from ethanones.

A Facile One-Pot Synthesis of Vicinal Di- and Triketones from α-Methylene Ketones by NBS-DMSO Oxidation

The reaction of 1,2-diarylethanones (1a-u) with N-bromosuccinimide in anhydrous dimethyl sulphoxide afforded diarylethanediones (2a-u) in excellent yields.Under similar conditions, 1-phenyl-2-butanone (3) gave 1-phenyl-1,2-butanedione (4) in fair yield in addition to a small amount of 1-phenyl-3-methylthio-1,2-butanedione (5) and 1-phenyl-1-methylthio-2-butanone (6). 4-Phenyl-2-butanone (7), 1,3-diphenyl-2-propanone (9), and 1,3-diphenyl-1,3-propanedione (10) gave the corresponding triketones monohydrate (8) and (11). 1-Indanone (12), 2-indanone (13), and 1,3-indandione (14) gave ninhydrin (15) in good yields.In the case of 3-phenyl-1-indanone (16), 3-phenyl-2-bromo-1-indanone (17), 3-phenyl-2-bromo-1-indenone (18) and 3-phenyl-1-indenone (19) were obtained. 1-Phenyl-1-propanone (20) and 1-phenyl-1-butanone (22) gave the corresponding α-(methylthio)ketones (21) and (22). 1,3,3-Triphenylpropanone (24a) and 1-phenyl-3-methyl-1-butanone (24b) yielded only the corresponding α-bromoketones (25a,b) in good yields.These α-bromoketones, however, afforded the corresponding α-diketones (26a,b) in moderate yields when α-bromoketones reacted with dimethyl sulphoxide in the presence of AgBF4.
