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.

A novel, metal-free oxidative intramolecular Mannich reaction was developed between secondary amines and unmodified ketones, affording a simple and direct access to a broad range of 2-arylquinolin-4(1H)-ones through C(sp3)-H activation/C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond formation from readily available N-arylmethyl-2-aminophenylketones, using TEMPO as the oxidant and KOtBu as the base.

A transition-metal-free, K2S2O8-mediated intramolecular oxidative nitrogenation/oxygenation of C(sp3)-H in N-aryl benzylic amines followed by oxidation at the benzylic center has been developed for the synthesis of benzamidine/benzoxazine heterocycles, providing an expedient access to quinazolin-4(3H)-ones, N-aryl-2-arylbenzimidazoles, and 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones. A considerable amount of work dealing with the mechanistic study to understand the crucial intramolecular cyclization step largely favors an iminium ion as the key intermediate.
