Ten chiral methyl 2-(2-oxo-2H-benzo[e][1,3]oxazin-3(4H)-yl)propanoate derivatives 6a-6j have been synthesized from optically pure amino methyl phenol 5 and 4-nitrophenyl chloroformate. These derivatives 6a-6j are characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, and HRMS spectral techniques. Optical purity of these derivatives was confirmed by chiral HPLC method. Ten synthesized ester derivatives 6a-6j were screened for their in vitro antioxidant activity. Among the compounds 6b-d and 6h-j have exhibited comparable antioxidant activity with ascorbic acid as a standard. Compounds 6a and 6e-g have shown moderate antioxidant activity. Further, the in vitro cytotoxicity of these compounds were studied through MTT cell proliferation assay in addition the effect on LDH leakage and NO release. Among the derivatives, 6j showed extremely best activity and the IC50 value (12.54 ± 0.71 μM) is very close to doxorubicin (7.2 ± 0.58 μM) as a standard. Compounds 6b, 6h, and 6i showed better inhibition next to compound 6j on the viability of HepG2 cells with an IC50 value (μM) of 56.02 ± 1.4, 41.76 ± 0.58, and 38.17 ± 0.34, respectively. Also, molecular docking studies have been carried out with STAT-3 (PDB ID: 1BG1) and BCL-2 (PDB ID: 4AQ3) proteins against the four active compounds 6b, 6h, 6i, and 6j. The binding energies of the tested compounds were in the range of ?7.76 to ?8.41 kcal/mol, which is very close to doxorubicin (?8.53 kcal/mol) as a standard. These molecular docking results are in good agreement with the in vitro studies.

Activation of the CB2 receptor is an attractive therapeutic strategy for the treatment of a wide range of inflammatory diseases. However, receptor subtype selectivity is necessary in order to circumvent the psychoactive effects associated with activation of the CB1 receptor. We aimed to use potent, non-selective synthetic cannabinoids designer drugs to develop selective CB2 receptor agonists. Simple structural modifications such as moving the amide substituent of 3-amidoalkylindole synthetic cannabinoids to the 2-position and bioisosteric replacement of the indole core to the 7-azaindole scaffold are shown to be effective and general strategies to impart receptor subtype selectivity. 2-Amidoalkylindole 16 (EC50 CB1 > 10 μM, EC50 CB2 = 189 nM) and 3-amidoalkyl-7-azaindole 21 (EC50 CB1 > 10 μM, EC50 = 49 nM) were found to be potent and selective agonists with favourable physicochemical properties. Docking studies were used to elucidate the molecular basis for the observed receptor subtype selectivity for these compounds.

The bis(pyridine)silver(I) permanganate promoted hydroxylation of diketopiperazines has served as a pivotal transformation in the synthesis of complex epipolythiodiketopiperazine alkaloids. This late-stage C-H oxidation chemistry is strategically critical to access N-acyl iminium ion intermediates necessary for nucleophilic thiolation of advanced diketopiperazines en route to potent epipolythiodiketopiperazine anticancer compounds. In this study, we develop an informative mathematical model using hydantoin derivatives as a training set of substrates by relating the relative rates of oxidation to various calculated molecular descriptors. The model prioritizes Hammett values and percent buried volume as key contributing factors in the hydantoin series while correctly predicting the experimentally observed oxidation sites in various complex diketopiperazine case studies. Thus, a method is presented by which to use simplified training molecules and resulting correlations to explain and predict reaction behavior for more complex substrates.
