The hydroarylation of alkenes is an attractive approach to construct carbon-carbon (C-C) bonds from abundant and structurally diverse starting materials. Herein we report a palladium-catalyzed reductive Heck hydroarylation of aliphatic and heteroatom-substituted terminal alkenes and select internal alkenes with an array of (hetero)aryl iodides. The reaction is anti-Markovnikov selective with terminal alkenes and tolerates a wide variety of functional groups on both the alkene and (hetero)aryl coupling partners. Additionally, applications of this method to complex molecule diversifications are demonstrated. Mechanistic experiments are consistent with a mechanism in which the key alkylpalladium(II) intermediate is intercepted with formate and undergoes a decarboxylation/C-H reductive elimination cascade to afford the saturated product and turn over the cycle.

Disclosed are compounds of the general formula (1): compositions comprising an effective amount of said compounds either alone or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents, and methods useful for treating or preventing cancer and for inhibiting tumour tissue growth. These compounds attenuate the oxidative damage associated with increased heme-oxygenase activity and can reduce cell proliferation in transformed cells. In addition, the described compounds and compositions are useful as neuroprotectants and for treating or preventing neurodegenerative disorders and other diseases of the central nervous system.
Synthesis, biochemical evaluation and rationalisation of the inhibitory activity of a range of 4-substituted phenyl alkyl imidazole-based inhibitors of the enzyme complex 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (P45017α)

We report the preliminary results of the synthesis, biochemical evaluation and rationalisation of the inhibitory activity of a number of phenyl alkyl imidazole-based compounds as inhibitors of the two components of 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (P45017α), that is, 17α-hydroxylase (17α-OHase) and 17,20-lyase (lyase). The results show that N-3-(4-bromophenyl) propyl imidazole (12) (IC50 = 2.95 μM against 17α-OHase and IC50 = 0.33 μM against lyase) is the most potent compound within the current study, in comparison to ketoconazole (KTZ) (IC50 = 3.76 μM against 17α-OHase and IC50 = 1.66 μM against lyase). Modelling of these compounds suggests that the length of the alkyl chain enhances the interaction between the inhibitor and the area of the active site corresponding to the C(3) area of the steroid backbone, thereby increasing potency.
