Patterning multiple images within a single element without crosstalk can significantly increase the information capacity and security, but it is challenging to enable the response capability in each image. Now, the patterning of crosstalk-free yet coopera

The nickel-catalyzed double carboxylation of internal alkynes employing carbon dioxide (CO2) has been developed. The reactions proceed under CO2 (1 atm) at room temperature in the presence of a nickel catalyst, Zn powder as a reducing reagent, and MgBr2 as an indispensable additive. Various internal alkynes could be converted to the corresponding maleic anhydrides in good to high yields. DFT calculations disclosed the indispensable role of MgBr2 in the second CO2 insertion.

A NiH-catalyzed thioether-directed cyclometalation strategy is developed to enable remote methylene C-H bond amidation of unactivated alkenes. Due to the preference for five-membered nickelacycle formation, the chain-walking isomerization initiated by the NiH insertion to an alkene can be terminated at the γ-methylene site remote from the alkene moiety. By employing 2,9-dibutyl-1,10-phenanthroline as the ligand and dioxazolones as the reagent, the amidation occurs at the γ-C(sp3)-H bonds to afford the amide products in up to 90% yield (>40 examples) with remarkable regioselectivity (up to 24:1 rr).

The Sonogashira coupling of 1,3,6,8-tetrabromopyrene with 4-[(-)-β-citronellyloxy]phenylethyne was employed to synthesize 1,3,6,8-tetra[4-(citronellyloxy)phenylethynyl]pyrene. The pyrene derivative catalyzed the reductive desulfonylation of ethenyl sulfones via visible-light irradiation (514 nm green light-emitting diodes) in the presence of i -Pr 2NEt. The β-citronellyloxy groups provided the sufficient solubility to the highly π-expanded pyrene catalyst, and their polar oxygen functionalities enabled the easy separation of the catalyst from the products via column chromatography.

Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) is a promising target for anticancer therapy due to its ability to counter the effects topoisomerase 1 (Top1) poison, such as topotecan, thus, decreasing their efficacy. Compounds containing adamantane and monoterpenoid residues connected via 1,2,4-triazole or 1,3,4-thiadiazole linkers were synthesized and tested against Tdp1. All the derivatives exhibited inhibition at low micromolar or nanomolar concentrations with the most potent inhibitors having IC50 values in the 0.35–0.57 μM range. The cytotoxicity was determined in the HeLa, HCT-116 and SW837 cancer cell lines; moderate CC50 (μM) values were seen from the mid-teens to no effect at 100 μM. Furthermore, citral derivative 20c, α-pinene-derived compounds 20f, 20g and 25c, and the citronellic acid derivative 25b were found to have a sensitizing effect in conjunction with topotecan in the HeLa cervical cancer and colon adenocarcinoma HCT-116 cell lines. The ligands are predicted to bind in the catalytic pocket of Tdp1 and have favorable physicochemical properties for further development as a potential adjunct therapy with Top1 poisons.
New hybrid compounds combining fragments of usnic acid and monoterpenoids for effective tyrosyl-dna phosphodiesterase 1 inhibition

Usnic acid (UA) is a secondary metabolite of lichens that exhibits a wide range of biological activities. Previously, we found that UA derivatives are effective inhibitors of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1). It can remove covalent complex DNA-topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) stabi-lized by the TOP1 inhibitor topotecan, neutralizing the effect of the drugs. TDP1 removes damage at the 3′ end of DNA caused by other anticancer agents. Thus, TDP1 is a promising therapeutic target for the development of drug combinations with topotecan, as well as other drugs for cancer treatment. Ten new UA enamino derivatives with variation in the terpene fragment and substituent of the UA backbone were synthesized and tested as TDP1 inhibitors. Four compounds, 11a-d, had IC50 values in the 0.23–0.40 μM range. Molecular modelling showed that 11a-d, with relatively short aliphatic chains, fit to the important binding domains. The intrinsic cytotoxicity of 11a-d was tested on two human cell lines. The compounds had low cytotoxicity with CC50 ≥ 60 μM for both cell lines. 11a and 11c had high inhibition efficacy and low cytotoxicity, and they enhanced topotecan’s cyto-toxicity in cancerous HeLa cells but reduced it in the non-cancerous HEK293A cells. This “protec-tive” effect from topotecan on non-cancerous cells requires further investigation.

The male-produced sex pheromone of the stink bug Edessa meditabunda was previously identified as a mixture of the esters methyl 4,8,12-trimethylpentadecanoate (1) and methyl 4,8,12-trimethyltetradecanoate (2), produced in a ratio of 92 : 8, respectively.

Currently, the spectrum of agents against orthopoxviruses, in particular smallpox, is very narrow. Despite the fact that smallpox is well controlled, there is, for many reasons, a real threat of epidemics associated with this or a similar virus. In order to search for new low molecular weight orthopoxvirus inhibitors, a series of amides combining adamantane and monoterpene moieties were synthesized using 1- and 2-adamantanecarboxylic acids as well as myrtenic, citronellic and camphorsulfonic acids as acid components. The produced compounds exhibited high activity against the vaccinia virus (an enveloped virus belonging to the poxvirus family), which was combined with low cytotoxicity. Some compounds had a selectivity index higher than that of the reference drug cidofovir; the highest SI = 1123 was exhibited by 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid amide containing the (-)-10-amino-2-pinene moiety. The produced compounds demonstrated inhibitory activity against other orthopoxviruses: cowpox virus (SI = 30-406) and ectromelia virus (mousepox virus, SI = 39-707). This journal is

We report the development of a new aminoxyl radical catalyst, CHAMPO, for the electrochemical diazidation of alkenes. Mediated by an anodically generated charge-transfer complex in the form of CHAMPO-N3, radical diazidation was achieved across a broad scope of alkenes without the need for a transition metal catalyst or a chemical oxidant. Mechanistic data support a dual catalytic role for the aminoxyl serving as both a single-electron oxidant and a radical group transfer agent.

Recent work by Wu et al. in connection with the first synthesis of the marine natural product plakinidone revealed that the most salient feature of its purported structure, a six-membered perlactone moiety, was in fact a five-membered lactone, i.e. a 3-me
