Efficient construction of diverse 3-cyanoindoles under novel tandem catalysis

A novel and rapid construction of 3-cyanoindoles by palladium-catalyzed tandem reactions has been developed. "N-H"free unprotected, N-alkyl and N-aryl 3-cyanoindoles are obtained with good to excellent yields. The usefulness of this synthetic approach is further demonstrated by the successful synthesis of practical compounds such as the therapeutic estrogen receptor ligand A precursor. Mechanism study shows that the tandem catalysis exploits a Suzuki cross-coupling with subsequent base-induced isoxazole fragmentation, followed by the aldimine condensation.

Optimization, Structure-Activity Relationship, and Mode of Action of Nortopsentin Analogues Containing Thiazole and Oxazole Moieties

Plant diseases seriously endanger plant health, and it is very difficult to control them. A series of nortopsentin analogues were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their antiviral activities and fungicidal activities. Most of these compounds displayed higher antiviral activities than ribavirin. Compounds 1d, 1e, and 12a, with excellent antiviral activities, emerged as novel antiviral lead compounds, among which 1e was selected for further antiviral mechanism research. The mechanism research results indicated that these compounds may play an antiviral role by aggregating viral particles to prevent their movement in plants. Further fungicidal activity tests revealed that nortopsentin analogues displayed broad-spectrum fungicidal activities. Compounds 2p and 2f displayed higher antifungal activities against Alternaria solani than the commercial fungicides carbendazim and chlorothalonil. Current research has laid a foundation for the application of nortopsentin analogues in plant protection.

Marine-Natural-Product Development: First Discovery of Nortopsentin Alkaloids as Novel Antiviral, Anti-phytopathogenic-Fungus, and Insecticidal Agents

Nortopsentin alkaloids were found to have potent antiviral, anti-phytopathogenic-fungus, and insecticidal activities for the first time. Antiviral-activity tests revealed that these compounds were very sensitive to substituents, so a series of nortopsentin derivatives were designed, synthesized, and systematically evaluated for their antiviral activities against TMV, their fungicidal activities, and their insecticidal activities on the basis of a structural-diversity-derivation strategy. Compounds 2e (in vivo inactivation-, curative-, and protective-activity inhibitory rates of 50, 59, and 56%, respectively, at 500 μg/mL) and 2k (in vivo inactivation-, curative-, and protective-activity inhibitory rates of 60, 58, and 52%, respectively, at 500 μg/mL), with excellent antiviral activities and good physicochemical properties, emerged as new lead compounds for novel-antiviral-agent development. Further fungicidal-activity tests revealed that these alkaloids displayed broad-spectrum fungicidal activities. Compounds 2f, 2h, and 2j emerged as new lead compounds for antifungal-activity research. Additionally, all the compounds displayed good insecticidal activities against five kinds of insects, including Mythimna separate, Helicoverpa armigera, Ostrinia nubilalis, Plutella xylostella, and Culex pipiens pallens.

An investigation into the substituent effect of halogen atoms on the crystal structures of indole-3-carboxylic acid (ICA)

An investigation into the substituent effect of halogen atoms (F, Cl, Br) on the crystal structure of indole-3-carboxylic acid (ICA) was prepared in this work. The investigation was done through the aspect of crystal structure, intermolecular interactions and π...π stacking motifs with the assistance of infrared spectra, elemental analyses, NMR spectra, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) and hot stage microscopy (HSM) measurements. The results revealed that the different kinds of halogen atoms and the different substituted positions have a significant effect on the crystal structures, molecular π...π stacking motifs and the kinds of intermolecular interactions. We further correlated the melting points of the ICAs with the H-H, O-H and X-H (X = F, Cl, Br) interactions, and found a positive correlation between them.

Synthesis and in-vitro anticancer activity of 3,5-bis(indolyl)-1,2,4- thiadiazoles

A series of 3,5-bis(indolyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazoles were synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxicity against selected human cancer cell lines. The reaction of indole-3-thiocarboxamide 3 with iodobenzene diacetate underwent oxidative dimerization to give 3,5-bis(indolyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazoles 4a-n. Among the synthesized bis(indoly)-1,2,4-thiadiazoles, the compound 4h with 4-chlorobenzyl and methoxy substituents showed the most potent activity.

These compounds demonstrated significant inhibitory effects in the growth of a range of cancer cell lines. 2,4-Bis(3'-indolyl)thiazole displayed selective cytotoxicity against certain leukemia cell lines with GI50 values in the low micromolar range while the substituted derivatives showed a broad spectrum of cytotoxic activity. 3,5-Bis(3'-indolyl)-2(1H)pyrazinone and 3,6- bis[3'-(N-methyl-indolyl)]pyrazine possessed strong inhibitory activity against a wide range of human tumor cell lines. The mechanism of action remained unknown.
