New coumaryl-carboxamide derivatives with the thiourea moiety as a linker between the alkyl chains and/or the heterocycle nucleus were synthesized and their inhibitory activity against the human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoforms hCA I, II, VII and IX were evaluated. While the hCA I, II and VII isoforms were not inhibited by the investigated compounds, the tumour-associated isoform hCA IX was inhibited in the high nanomolar range. 2-Oxo-N-((2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethyl)carbamothioyl)-2H-chromene-3-carboxamide (e11) exhibited a selective inhibitory action against hCA IX with the Ki of 107.9 nM. In order to better understand the inhibitory profiles of studied molecules, multiscale molecular modeling approaches were used. Different molecular docking algorithms were used to investigate binding poses and predicted binding energies of studied compounds at the active sites of the CA I, II, VII and IX isoforms.

To address the obstacles facing the use of palladium-based homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts in C─C cross-coupling reactions, a novel semi-heterogeneous support was developed based on hyperbranched poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(citric acid)-functionalized Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@PCA-b-PEG). Because of the surface modification of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles with amphiphilic and hyperbranched polymers (PCA-b-PEG), these hybrid materials are not only soluble in a wide range of solvents (e.g. water, ethanol and dimethylformamide) but also are able to trap Pd2+ ions via complex formation of free carboxyl groups of the PCA dendrimer with metal ions. The reduction of trapped palladium ions in the dendritic shell of Fe3O4@PCA-b-PEG leads to immobilized palladium nanoparticles. The morphology and structural features of the catalyst were characterized using various microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. The catalyst was effectively used in the palladium-catalysed Mizoroki–Heck coupling reaction in water as a green solvent. In addition, the catalyst can be easily recovered from the reaction mixture by applying an external magnetic field and reused for more than ten consecutive cycles without much loss in activity, exhibiting an example of a sustainable and green methodology.

A series of novel trimethylpyrazine-2-carbonyloxy-cinnamic acids and esters were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory effect on adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet aggregation in vitro and also assayed for their protective effect against hydrogen peroxide (H 2O2)-induced oxidative damage on Ea.hy926 cells. The results showed that many compounds exhibited high activity in one or both of the assays, of which, compound F′10 displayed the highest protective effect on the proliferation of the damaged Ea.hy926 cells (EC50 = 1.7 μM), presenting almost 40 times higher potency than that of lipoic acid, and compound F3 was the most active anti-platelet aggregation agent with IC 50 = 9.6 μM, comparable to that of clopidogrel. The structure-activity relationships of these compounds were also discussed.

Although curcumin is known for its anticarcinogenic properties, the exact mechanism of its action or the identity of the target receptor is not completely understood. Studies on a series of curcumin analogues, synthesized to investigate their tubulin binding affinities and tubulin self-assembly inhibition, showed that: (i) curcumin acts as a bifunctional ligand, (ii) analogues with substitution at the diketone and acetylation of the terminal phenolic groups of curcumin are less effective, (iii) a benzylidiene derivative, compound 7, is more effective than curcumin in inhibiting tubulin self-assembly. Cell-based studies also showed compound 7 to be more effective than curcumin. Using fluorescence spectroscopy we show that curcumin binds tubulin 32 ? away from the colchicine-binding site. Docking studies also suggests that the curcumin-binding site to be close to the vinblastine-binding site. Structure-activity studies suggest that the tridented nature of compound 7 is responsible for its higher affinity for tubulin compared to curcumin.

experimental part, p. 9067 - 9076 (2012/01/03)
Linear polystyrene-stabilized PdO nanoparticles (PS-PdONPs) were prepared by thermal decomposition of Pd(OAc)2 in the presence of polystyrene. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicated the production of PdO nanoparticles. The loading of palladium was determined by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). PS-PdONPs exhibited high catalytic activity for Mizoroki-Heck reactions under air in water and could be recycled without loss of activity.
A facile method for synthesis of amine-functionalized mesoporous zirconia and its catalytic evaluation in Knoevenagel condensation
Parida,Mallick, Sujata,Sahoo,Rana
experimental part, p. 226 - 232 (2010/08/06)
Amine-functionalized mesoporous zirconia was prepared by a co-condensation method using silane (aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, APTES) and zirconium butoxide. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, BET surface area analysis, 13C magic angle spinning-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier-transfer infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmittance electron micrography (TEM), and CHN analysis. FTIR and NMR results revealed the successful grafting of organic amines onto the surface of zirconia. The catalytic activities were investigated for liquid phase Knoevenagel condensation of various aromatic aldehydes with diethyl malonate. The catalysts showed excellent yield of products at room temperature in solvent-free condition.

We investigated a series of coumarinyl-substituted aromatic sulfonamides as inhibitors of four carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms with medical applications, the cytosolic hCA I, and II, and the transmembrane, tumor-associated hCA IX and XII. Compounds incorporating 7-methoxy-coumarin-4- yl-acetamide-tails and benzenesulfonamide and benzene-1,3-disulfonamide scaffolds showed medium potency inhibition of hCA I (KIs of 73-131 nM), effective hCA II inhibition (KIs of 9.1-36 nM) and less effective hCA IX and XII inhibition (KIs of 55-128 nM). Only one compound, the derivatized 4-amino-6-trifluoromethyl-benzene-1,3-disulfonamide with the coumarinyl tail, showed effective inhibition of the transmembrane isoforms, with KIs of 5.9-14.2 nM, although it was less effective as hCA I and II inhibitor (KIs of 36-120 nM). An X-ray crystal structure of hCA II in complex with 4-(7-methoxy-coumarin-4-yl-acetamido)- benzenesulfonamide (KI of 9.1 nM against hCA II) showed the intact inhibitor coordinated to the zinc ion from the enzyme active site by the sulfonamide moiety, and participating in a edge-to-face stacking with Phe131, in addition to other hydrophobic and hydrophilic interactions with water molecules and amino acid residues from the active site. Thus, sulfonamides incorporating coumarin rings have a distinct inhibition mechanism compared to the coumarins, and may lead to compounds with interesting inhibition profiles against various α-CAs found in mammals or parasites, such as Plasmodium falciparum.
