, (2021)
Herein, the design and synthesis of new 2-phenyl(pyridinyl)benzimidazolequinones and their 5-phenoxy derivatives as potential anti-Trypanosoma cruzi agents are described. The compounds were evaluated in vitro against the epimastigotes and trypomastigote f
Photocatalytic C-H Amination of Aromatics Overcoming Redox Potential Limitations

We report the photocatalytic C-H amination of aromatics overcoming redox potential limitations. Radical cations of aromatic compounds are generated photocatalytically using Ru(phen)3(PF6)2, which has a reduction potential at a high oxidation state (Ered(RuIII/RuII) = +1.37 V vs SCE) lower than the oxidation potentials of aromatic substrates (Eox = +1.65 to +2.27 V vs SCE). The radical cations are trapped with pyridine to give N-arylpyridinium ions, which were converted to aromatic amines.
The aza-analogues of 1,4-naphthoquinones are potent substrates and inhibitors of plasmodial thioredoxin and glutathione reductases and of human erythrocyte glutathione reductase

Various aza-analogues of 1,4-naphthoquinone and menadione were prepared and tested as inhibitors and substrates of the plasmodial thioredoxin and glutathione reductases as well as the human glutathione reductase. The replacement of one to two carbons at the phenyl ring of the 1,4-naphthoquinone core by one to two nitrogen atoms led to an increased oxidant character of the molecules in accordance with both the redox potential values and the substrate efficiencies. Compared to the 1,4-naphthoquinone and menadione, the quinoline-5,8-dione 1 and both quinoxaline-5,8-diones 5 and 6 behaved as the most efficient subversive substrates of the three NADPH-dependent disulfide reductases tested. Modulation of these parameters was observed by alkylation of the aza-naphthoquinone core. The Royal Society of Chemistry.
