A series of novel 2-amino-3,4,5 trimethoxyaroylindole derivatives was synthesized and evaluated against selected human cancer cell lines of breast (MCF-7) and colon (HT-29). Introduction of an amino group at the C-2 position on ring A of 3,4,5-trimethoxyaroylindole derivatives resulted in novel compounds, i.e., 2-amino-3,4,5-trimethoxyaroylindole derivatives exhibiting excellent cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines. Substitution with methoxy group at R6 in 2-amino-3,4,5-trimethoxyaroylindole 5d exhibited excellent cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 (0.013 μM) and colon HT-29 (0.143 μM) indicating slightly higher potency than Combretastatin A-4. Molecular modeling studies of 2-amino-3,4,5-trimethoxyaroylindole derivatives have similar structural alignment as colchicine in protein (PDB code: 1SA0) and exhibited hydrogen bond interaction between para position of 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl ring with CYS 241 and N-H molecule of indole ring with Val 315 of receptor molecule.

The roles of nickel and chromium catalysts in the coupling reaction of vinyl halides and aldehydes, the so-called Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi (NHK) reaction, have been studied by UV/Vis spectroscopy, electrochemical, and spectroelectrochemical methods. Electrochemical studies revealed that nickel plays the central role in activating the vinyl halide by reductive cleavage, to form a rapidly decomposing vinyl-Ni species. The latter can, however, be stabilized in the presence of the Cr complex. The redox behavior of the Ni complexes in the presence of vinyl halide demonstrated that the vinyl halide activation results from interaction with a one-electron reduced nickel species [formally NiI], not necessarily with a Ni0 species. It was furthermore shown by UV/Vis spectroscopy and spectroelectrochemical methods that low-valent nickel [Ni0] results from the interaction of the NiII catalyst with CrCl2. It takes two to tango! The initial stages of the Cr/Ni-catalyzed vinylation of aldehydes (the Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction) were analyzed by electrochemical methods. The role of low-valent nickel in the C-halogen(Hal) cleavage of the vinyl halide was established, as well as the generation of the former from NiII and CrII. Copyright
