The combination between two well-studied bioactive compounds melatonin and salicylic acid with proper modifications unexpectedly creates a sharp pair of “scissors” cutting off the vicious connection between inflammation and cancer by targeting a key contributor Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription 3 (STAT3) in the two pathological processes. A representative compound P-3 with IC50 values on each tested cell line ranging from 7.37 to 18.62 μM among the designed melatonin derivatives is equipped with the ability of curbing inflammation-promoting cancer by down-regulating the expression, activation and nuclear translocation of STAT3, breaking the feedforward loop of STAT3 activation by decreasing the expression of pro-tumorigenic cytokines, and inducing cell apoptosis through ROS triggered Cyto-c/Caspase-3 pathway. This study suggests that the melatonin derivative P-3 is likely to become a promising chemical structure for developing the novel anti-cancer agents taking effect through hindering the mutual-promoting processes between inflammation and cancer.

(Chemical Equation Presented) N,O-Bidentate compounds were systematically evaluated as phosphine-free ligands for Pd-catalyzed C-C bond-formation reactions through kinetic measurements. Pd(quinoline-8-carboxylate)2 was identified as one of the most efficient, yet still low-priced, phosphine-free catalysts for Heck as well as Suzuki reactions of unactivated aryl bromides with high turnover numbers up to ca. 10,000.
Reaction of functionalized anilines with dimethyl carbonate over NaY faujasite. 3. Chemoselectivity toward mono-N-methylation

In the presence of NaY faujasite, dimethyl carbonate (MeOCO2Me, DMC) is a highly chemoselective methylating agent of functionalized anilines such as aminophenols (1), aminobenzyl alcohols (2), aminobenzoic acids (3), and aminobenzamides (4). The reaction proceeds with the exclusive formation of N-methylanilines without any concurrent O-methylation or N-/O-methoxy carbonylation side processes. Particularly, only mono-N-methyl derivatives [XC6H4NHMe, X = o-, m-, and p-OH; o- and p-CH 2OH; o- and P-CO2H; o- and p-CONH2] are obtained with selectivity up to 99% and isolated yields of 74-99%. DMC, which usually promotes methylations only at T > 120 °C, is activated by the zeolite catalyst and it reacts with compounds 1, 2, and 4, at 90 °C. Aminobenzoic acids (3) require a higher reaction temperature (≥130 °C).
