Anthranilic acids (AAs) are significant basic chemicals used in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes, fragrances,etc. Superfluous steps are always involved in obtaining AAs. Herein, we demonstrate a straightforward strategy to transform abundanto-nitrotoluenes into biologically and pharmaceutically significant AAs without any extra reductants, oxidants and protecting groups. Various sensitive groups, such as halogens, sulfide, aldehyde, pyridines, quinolines,etc., can be tolerated in this transformation. A hundred-gram-scale operation is realized efficiently with almost quantitative selenium recycling. Further mechanistic studies and DFT calculations disclosed the proposed atom-exchange processes and the key roles of the selenium species.

Based on a multitarget strategy, a series of novel tacrine-pyrimidone hybrids were identified for the potential treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Biological evaluation results demonstrated that these hybrids exhibited significant inhibitory activities toward acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3). The optimal compound 27g possessed excellent dual AChE/GSK-3 inhibition both in terms of potency and equilibrium (AChE: IC50 = 51.1 nM; GSK-3β: IC50 = 89.3 nM) and displayed significant amelioration on cognitive deficits in scopolamine-induced amnesia mice and efficient reduction against phosphorylation of tau protein on Ser-199 and Ser-396 sites in glyceraldehyde (GA)-stimulated differentiated SH-SY5Y cells. Furthermore, compound 27g exhibited eligible pharmacokinetic properties, good kinase selectivity, and moderate neuroprotection against GA-induced reduction in cell viability and neurite damage in SH-SY5Y-derived neurons. The multifunctional profiles of compound 27g suggest that it deserves further investigation as a promising lead for the prospective treatment of AD.

A Chiral Br?nsted acid catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular ring-closing alkylation of inert pyrroles with α, β-unsaturated ketones has been developed. This approach gave a wide range of 4-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-6H-benzo[f]pyrrolo[1,2-a]azepin-6-ones in high yields with good enantioselectivities under mild reaction conditions. (Figure presented.).
