A series of novel racemic otobain derivatives was designed and synthesised using 2-piperonyl-1,3-dithianes in the conjugate addition-alkylation to 5H-furan-2-one, followed by cationic cyclisation. All the synthesised compounds were consequently evaluated for their anticancer activity against several human cancers in vitro. The efficacy of the most active compound 27g was comparable with etoposide, with IC50 values ranging from 1.06 μM to 4.16 μM in different cancer cell lines. Notably, compound 27g strongly induced cell cycle arrest and increased the expression of mitosis-specific markers MPM-2 and phosphorylated histone H3, but it did not trigger cell apoptosis. Further a colony formation assay showed that compound 27g effectively inhibited the anchor growth of lung cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. More importantly, compound 27g at 40 mg kg-1 significantly suppressed tumour volume (P 0.01) and tumour weight (P 0.05) in a human lung cancer cell xenograft mouse model without causing systematic toxicity in mice. Our findings indicated that compound 27g has significant potential for further drug development.

A modified approach to synthesize and isolate arylnitromethanes is described. The method takes advantage of the significant difference in acidity between the arylnitromethane and the major impurity of the reaction, the nitrite ester. The arylnitromethanes resulting from this process are obtained in high yields and are analytically pure, i.e., they do not require distillation or further purification, which is a comfortable improvement of the ancestral Victor Meyer reaction.
4-Aminophenyldiphenylphosphinite (APDPP), a new heterogeneous and acid scavenger phosphinite - Conversion of alcohols, trimethylsilyl, and tetrahydropyranyl ethers to alkyl halides with halogens or N-halosuccinimides

A new heterogeneous phosphinite, 4-aminophenyldiphenylphosphinite (APDPP), is prepared and used for the efficient conversion of alcohols, trimethylsilyl ethers, and tetrahydropyranyl ethers to their corresponding bromides, iodides, and chlorides in the presence of molecular halogens or N-halosuccinimides. The amino group in this phosphinite acts as an acid scavenger and removes the produced acid. A simple filtration easily removes the phosphinate by-product.
