Recently, irreversible inhibitors have attracted great interest in antitumors due to their advantages of forming covalent bonds to target proteins. Herein, some benzothiazepinone compounds (BTZs) have been designed and synthesized as novel covalent GSK-3β inhibitors with high selectivity for the kinase panel. The irreversible covalent binding mode was identified by kinetics and mass spectrometry, and the main labeled residue was confirmed to be the unique Cys14 that exists only in GSK-3β. The candidate 4-3 (IC50 = 6.6 μM) showed good proliferation inhibition and apoptosis-inducing ability to leukemia cell lines, low cytotoxicity on normal cell lines, and no hERG inhibition, which hinted the potential efficacy and safety. Furthermore, 4-3 exhibited decent pharmacokinetic properties in vivo and remarkably inhibited tumor growth in the acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) mouse model. All the results suggest that these newly irreversible BTZ compounds might be useful in the treatment of cancer such as APL.

The number of deaths or critical health issues is a threat in the infection caused by Dengue virus, which complicates the situation, as only symptomatic treatment is the current solution. In this regard we have targeted the dengue protease NS2B-NS3 that is responsible for the replication. The series was designed with the help of molecular modeling approach using docking protocols. The series comprised of different scaffolds viz. cinnamic acid analogs (CA1–CA11), chalcone (C1–C10) and their molecular hybrids (Lik1–Lik10), analogs of benzimidazole (BZ1-BZ5), mercaptobenzimidazole (BS1-BS4), and phenylsulfanylmethylbenzimidazole (PS1-PS4). Virtual screening of various natural phytoconstituents was employed to determine the interactions of designed analogs with the residues of catalytic triad in the active site of NS2B-NS3. We have further synthesized the selected leads. The synthesized analogs were evaluated for the cytotoxicity and NS2B-NS3 protease inhibition activity and compared with known anti-dengue natural phytoconstituent quercetin as the standard. CA2, BZ1, and BS2 were found to be more potent and efficacious than the standard quercetin as evident from the protease inhibition assay.

Herein, a dual nickel/ruthenium strategy is developed for photoinduced decarboxylative cross-coupling between α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids and cycloketone oxime esters. The reaction mechanism is distinct from previous photoinduced decarboxylation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids. This reaction might proceed through a nickelacyclopropane intermediate. The C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond constructed by the aforementioned reaction provides an efficient approach to obtaining various cyanoalkyl alkenes, which are synthetically valuable organic skeletons in organic and medicinal chemistry, under mild reaction conditions. The protocol tolerates many critical functional groups and provides a route for the modification of complex organic molecules.

Abstract: The rate of mutability of pathogenic H1N1 influenza virus is a threat. The emergence of drug resistance to the current competitive inhibitors of neuraminidase, such as oseltamivir and zanamivir, attributes to a need for an alternative approach. The design and synthesis of new analogues with alternate approach are particularly important to identify the potential neuraminidase inhibitors which may not only have better anti-influenza activity but also can withstand challenge of resistance. Five series of scaffolds, namely aurones (1a–1e), pyrimidine analogues (2a–2b), cinnamic acid analogues (3a–3k), chalcones (4a–4h) and cinnamic acid linkages (5a–5c), were designed based on virtual screening against pandemic H1N1 virus. Molecular modelling studies revealed that the designed analogues occupied 430-loop cavity of neuraminidase. Docking of sialic acid in the active site preoccupied with the docked analogues, i.e. in 430-loop cavity, resulted in displacement of sialic acid from its native pose in the catalytic cavity. The favourable analogues were synthesized and evaluated for the cytotoxicity and cytopathic effect inhibition by pandemic H1N1 virus. All the designed analogues resulting in displacement of sialic acid suggested alternate binding mechanism. Overall results indicated that aurones can be measured best among all as potential neuraminidase inhibitor against pandemic H1N1 virus. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

A new coordination Co(II) complex, namely, [Co2(DIPT)4(PClA)2Cl2]·H2O (NCl-1) (DIPT = 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl) -1H-imidazo [4,5–f]-[1,10]phenanthroline, HPClA = 3-(2-chlorophenyl)acrylie) has been synthesized under solvothermal conditions and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, nitrogen adsorption analysis and powder X-ray diffraction. NCl-1 constructed by six coordinated mode with metal center and connected different ligands and ions, exhibits a three-dimensional structure under interactions of hydrogen bond and π-π stacking interactions. The luminescence explorations demonstrated that NCl-1 exhibits highly selective and sensitive sensing for organic solvents (MeOH) and metal ion (Fe3+). Furthermore, magnetic analysis indicated that NCl-1 also own the property of anti ferromagnetic.

Tyrosinase enzyme plays a crucial role in melanin biosynthesis and enzymatic browning process of vegetables and fruits. Hence, tyrosinase inhibitors are important in the fields of medicine, cosmetics and agriculture. In this study, novel N-(2-morpholinoethyl)cinnamamide derivatives bearing different substituents on phenyl ring were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their tyrosinase diphenolase inhibitory activity. The compounds were found to be better tyrosinase inhibitors (IC50s were in micro molar range) than cinnamic acid. (E)-3-(3-chlorophenyl)-N-(2-morpholinoethyl)acrylamide (B6) exhibited the highest inhibition with IC50 value of 15.2 ± 0.6 μM which was comparable to that of kojic acid. The inhibition kinetic analysis of B6 indicated that the compound was a mixed-type tyrosinase inhibitor. In silico ADME prediction indicated that B6 might show more skin penetration than kojic acid. Molecular docking analysis confirmed that the active inhibitors well accommodated in the mushroom tyrosinase active site and it was also revealed that B6 formed the most stable drug-receptor complex with the target protein. Therefore, cinnamamide B6 could be introduced as a potent tyrosinase inhibitor that might be a promising lead in cosmetics, medicine and food industry.

A Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids with cyclic and acyclic epoxides has been developed. Both β-monosubstituted and β-disubstituted unsaturated carboxylic acids, as well as conjugated diene unsaturated carboxylic acids are suitable reaction substrates. Substituted homoallylic alcohols were obtained in moderate to good yields. The product was obtained as a mixture of diastereomers favoring the anti diastereomer of the cyclic epoxides. This work provides a method for the modification of complex organic molecules containing α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids.

A series of novel 11-O-carbamoyl clarithromycin ketolides were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activity. The results showed that the majority of the target compounds displayed improved activity compared with references against erythromycin-resistant S. pneumoniae A22072 expressing the mef gene, S. pneumoniae B1 expressing the erm gene and S. pneumoniae AB11 expressing the mef and erm genes. In particular, compounds 9, 18, 19 and 22 showed the most potent activity against erythromycin-resistant S. pneumoniae A22072 with the MIC values of 0.5?μg/mL. Furthermore, compounds 11, 18, 19, 24 and 29 were also found to exhibit favorable antibacterial activity against erythromycin-susceptible S. pyogenes with the MIC values of 0.125–1?μg/mL, and moderate activity against erythromycin-susceptible S. aureus ATCC25923 and B. subtilis ATCC9372.

Cinnamic acids are intermediates with significant potential for synthesis of several industrially important chemicals. Classically, cinnamic acids are produced through Knoevenagel condensation of aromatic aldehydes and malonic acid in the presence of an organocatalyst and large amounts of carcinogenic pyridine. An alternative pyridine free reaction scheme for Knoevenagel condensation of malonic acid and aromatic aldehydes was investigated by replacing pyridine with an aliphatic tertiary amine surrogate in toluene as the reaction medium. Of the three aliphatic tertiary amines used, namely, triethyl amine (TEA), trioctyl amine (TOA) and tributyl amine (TBA), only TEA afforded cinnamic acids in comparable yields to those obtained with pyridine. Validation through a computational analysis is attempted to provide an explanation for the observed role of TEA as an aliphatic N-base instead of TBA and TOA. The use of TEA as a mild base in place of pyridine can be seen as playing the dual role of a base catalyst as well as a phase transfer agent evidenced by the in-process ATR-FITR spectroscopy. Use of the TEA-toluene system in place of pyridine can be seen as resulting in a process that affords ease of handling, separation and recycling of the solvent and the catalyst.
