Chagas disease, also known as American trypanosomiasis, is classified as a neglected disease by the World Health Organization. For clinical treatment, only two drugs have been on the market, Benznidazole and Nifurtimox, both of which are recommended for use in the acute phase but present low cure rates in the chronic phase. Furthermore, strong side effects may result in discontinuation of this treatment. Faced with this situation, we report the synthesis and trypanocidal activity of 3-benzoyl-flavanones. Novel 3-benzoyl-flavanone derivatives were prepared in satisfactory yields in the 3-step synthetic procedure. According to recommended guidelines, the whole cell-based screening methodology was utilized that allowed for the simultaneous use of both parasite forms responsible for human infection. The majority of the tested compounds displayed promising anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity and the most potent flavanone bearing a nitrofuran moiety was more potent than the reference drug, Benznidazole.
Directing group assisted copper-catalyzed chemoselective O-aroylation of phenols and enols using alkylbenzenes

By using alkylbenzenes as aroyl surrogates, copper(II) catalyzed chemoselective O-aroylations of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and phenolic-OH ortho to carbonyl (-CHO,-COR) groups have been achieved. A dual mechanism operating in tandem for these transformations has been supported by a crossover experiment.

A new synthetic approach toward the synthesis of flavones and pyranoflavone has been developed by light induced intramolecular photochemical Wittig reaction in water onto aryloxycarbonyl groups and suitably substituted phosphonium bromides sans any phase transfer catalyst or promoter.
New synthesis of 3-bromoflavones via bromination of 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3- arylpropane-1,3-dione by CuBr2, and conversion into 3-aminoflavones

A new synthesis of 3-bromoflavones from 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-arylpropane- 1,3-dione using CuBr2 is described. The usefulness of 3-bromoflavone as a precursor of 3-aminoflavone is also described. Copyright
Synthesis of halogenated/nitrated flavone derivatives and evaluation of their affinity for the central benzodiazepine receptor
Marder, Mariel,Zinczuk, Juan,Colombo, Maria I.,Wasowski, Cristina,Viola, Haydee,Wolfman, Claudia,Medina, Jorge H.,Ruveda, Edmundo A.,Paladini, Alejandro C.

A series of halogenated/nitrated flavone compounds were synthesized. Some of the products were found to be potent central benzodiazepine receptor (BDZ-R) ligands. The structure-activity relationships (SAR) analysis of the new synthetic compounds, together with that of others already described, indicates that substitutions at position 6 or 6 and 3' in the flavone nucleus are the only ones that give rise to high affinity BDZ-R ligands.
