We report a green cascade approach to prepare a variety of 3-aminoindole derivatives in good to excellent yields through an iron(iii)-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling reaction of 2-arylindoles and primary benzylamines under mild reaction conditions. Mechanistic studies show that a cascade reaction involves a tert-butyl nitrite (TBN)-mediated nitrosation of 2-substituted indoles and a 1,5-hydrogen shift to afford indolenine oximes, sequential iron(iii)-catalyzed condensation and a 1,5-hydrogen shift over four steps in a one-pot reaction. The reaction shows a broad substrate scope of indoles and benzylamines and tolerates a wide range of functional groups. Moreover, the reaction is easily performed at the gram scale without producing waste after the reaction is completed. The 3-aminoindole product is purified by simple extraction, washing, and recrystallization without flash column chromatography. A double imine ligand containing the 3-aminoindole unit is facile to obtain in a 52% yield in one step. The present method highlights readily available starting materials, a simple purification procedure, and the usage of cheap, nontoxic, and environmentally benign iron(iii) catalysts. This journal is

Based on the structural elements of bioactive 3-substituted indoles, a new series of indole–thiosemicarbazone hybrid derivatives were designed, synthesized, and well-characterized using different spectral techniques. The intended scaffolds were screened for their in vitro anti-proliferative activities against breast cancer (MCF-7), lung cancer (A-549), and liver cancer (Hep-G2) cell lines, as well as their anti-oxidant properties. Cytotoxicity studies revealed that compound 6n was the most potent, at least threefold more potent than the commercially available reference drug etoposide, against A-549. In addition, morphological analysis by the acridine orange/ethidium bromide double staining test and flow cytometry analysis confirmed induction of apoptosis in the A-549 cells by compound 6n. In order to validate the experimental results, molecular studies were performed to achieve the possible binding interactions of the most potent compound (6n) and colchicine with tubulin as well as ANP with ATPase domain of topoisomerase IIα active sites. Moreover, the radical scavenging potential of the final derivatives was found to be excellent with the range of 0.015–0.630?μM, comparable to the standard ascorbic acid (0.655?μM).

In this work, two novel series of indole-thiosemicarbazone derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against MCF-7, A-549, and Hep-G2 cell lines in comparison to etoposide and colchicine as the reference drugs. Generally, the synthesized compounds showed better cytotoxicity towards A-549 and Hep-G2 than MCF-7. Among them, (2E)-2-{[2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-indol-3-yl]methylidene}-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)hydrazinecarbothioamide (8l) was found to be the most potent compound against A-549 and Hep-G2, at least three times more potent than etoposide. The morphological analysis by the acridine orange/ethidium bromide double staining test and flow cytometry analysis indicated that compound 8l induced apoptosis in A-549 cells. Moreover, molecular docking methodology was exploited to elucidate the details of molecular interactions of the studied compounds with putative targets.

A series of novel imidazopyridine derivatives of indole has been synthesized. All the synthesized derivatives were evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against A-549, T-47D, Hep-G2 and MCF-7 human cancer cell lines. The results demonstrated that some of these derivatives exhibited moderate to excellent cytotoxic activities. Compounds 7a having a cyclohexyl ring substituted to the second amine of imidazopyridyl moiety and phenyl ring of the C-2 indole ring and 7f with a para-methylphenyl ring at the same position exhibited the highest activity against the A-594 cell line with IC50 of 11.48?μM and 10.66?μM, respectively. The results indicate that compounds 7a and 7f are more cytotoxic towards cancer cell lines compared with etoposide in vitro. In addition, compounds, 7d and 7j showed the most potent activity against Hep-G2, equal to etoposide as the standard drug. Also, most of the compounds were inactive against the T-47D and MCF-7 cell lines. The morphological analysis by the acridine orange/ethidium bromide double-staining test and flow cytometry analysis indicated that compounds 7a and 7f induced apoptosis in A-549 cells. Furthermore, in silico and in vitro results of the synthesized compounds showed good correlation with each other. Molecular docking results of the compounds of the 7a–k series with the cyclohexyl ring substituted to the second amine of the imidazopyridyl moiety compared with the 7l–t members with the t-butyl group at the same position confirmed the effect of the higher lipophilicity on hydrophobic interactions with the studied enzymes. Moreover, all the compounds showed higher affinity to tubulin than topoisomerase IIα enzyme.

A series of berberine-phenyl-benzoheterocyclic (26-29) and tacrine-phenyl-benzoheterocyclic hybrids (44-46) were synthesised and evaluated as multifunctional anti-Alzheimer's disease agents. Compound 44b, tacrine linked with phenyl-benzothiazole by 3-carbon spacers, was the most potent AChE inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.017 μM. This compound demonstrated similar Aβ aggregation inhibitory activity with cucurmin (51.8% vs 52.1% at 20 μM, respectively), indicating that this hybrid is an excellent multifunctional drug candidate for AD.

Treatment of 2-aryl- and 2-heteroarylindoles with propargyl ethers in the presence of a catalytic amount of indium nonafluorobutanesulfonate [In(ONf) 3] gave aryl- and heteroaryl-annulated[a]carbazoles in good yields. The synthetically attractive feature is reflected by its applicability to a wide range of 2-aryl-and 2-heteroarylindoles. In the annulation reaction, propargyl ethers act as C3 sources (HC≡C-CH2OR). Among these, two carbon atoms are incorporated into the product as members of a newly constructed aromatic ring and the remaining carbon atom forms a methyl group on the aromatic ring, where the methyl group is always located next to the C3 position of the indole nucleus. The methyl group can be easily removed through SeO2 oxidation followed by decarbonylation with RhCl(CO)(PPh3) 2-Ph2P(CH2)3PPh2 as a catalyst. The new annulation strategy is applicable also to symmetrical dimers such as bithiophene and bifuran derivatives. Mechanistic studies suggest that the first step is addition reaction initiated by regioselective nucleophilic attack of the C3 of 2-aryl- and 2-heteroarylindoles to the internal carbon atom of the C≡C bond in propargyl ethers. The next stage is ring-closing S N2 process kicking out the alkoxy group and then aromatization via a 1,3-hydrogen shift is the final step. The two carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions achieved in one-pot contribute largely to the reduction in the number of steps for the synthesis of aryl- and heteroaryl-annulated[a]carbazoles. Furthermore, utilization of the Fischer indole synthesis for efficient supply of the substrates, 2-aryl- and 2-heteroarylindoles, is another important factor shortening the overall process. The development of the annulation with a wide substrate scope provided a unique opportunity to evaluate photophysical properties of a series of aryl- and heteroaryl-annulated[a]-carbazoles. Almost all the compounds evaluated in this study were found to emit purple to green light in the visible region. Some interesting structure-property correlations are also described.
