We have developed catalyst-controlled regiodivergent rearrangements of onium-ylides derived from indole substrates. Oxonium ylides formed in situ from substituted indoles selectively undergo [2,3]- and [1,2]-rearrangements in the presence of a rhodium and a copper catalyst, respectively. The combined experimental and density functional theory (DFT) computational studies indicate divergent mechanistic pathways involving a metal-free ylide in the rhodium catalyzed reaction favoring [2,3]-rearrangement, and a metal-coordinated ion-pair in the copper catalyzed [1,2]-rearrangement that recombines in the solvent-cage. The application of our methodology was demonstrated in the first total synthesis of the indole alkaloid (±)-sorazolon B, which enabled the stereochemical reassignment of the natural product. Further functional group transformations of the rearrangement products to generate valuable synthetic intermediates were also demonstrated.

The palladium-catalyzed synthesis of indole/benzofurancontaining diarylmethanes starting from indolylmethyl or benzofuranylmethyl acetates with boronic acids has been investigated. The success of the reaction is influenced by the choice of precatalyst: with indolylmethyl acetates the reaction works well with [Pd(η3-C3H5)Cl]2/XPhos while with benzofuranylmethyl acetates Pd2(dba)3/XPhos is more efficient. The good to high yields and the simplicity of the experimental procedure make this protocol a versatile synthetic tool for the preparation of 2- and 3-substituted indoles and 2-benzo[b]furans. The methodology can be advantageously extended to the preparation of a key precursor of Zafirlukast.

Novel and efficient Mn(OAc)3?2H2O promoted radical addition-[4 + 1] cyclization relay of 3-indolymethanols and phosphites was disclosed, which afforded 1,2-oxaphospholoindole derivatives in moderate to good yields. Based on the experimental and computational studies, a mechanism involving radical addition and intramolecular cyclization cascade was proposed.

Proton-exchanged montmorillonite (H-mont) with outstanding surface characteristics can provide abundant acidic sites in the mesopores, and serve as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of heterocycle-containing diarylmethanes via Friedel-Crafts-like alkylation of (hetero)arenes by heterobenzyl acetates under mild reaction conditions without requiring any additives or an inert atmosphere. Using this strategy, the gram-scale synthesis of indole-containing diarylmethane 13 has been accomplished in good yield for the preparation of Zafirlukast. In addition, H-mont can be applied to the nucleophilic substitution reactions of heterobenzyl acetate 5p with a variety of alcohols and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds.

Obesity and dyslipidemia is the two facet of metabolic syndrome, which needs further attention. Recent studies indicate triazole and indole derivatives have remarkable anti-obesity/antidyslipidemic activity. To harness the above-mentioned potential, a series of novel triazole clubbed indole derivatives were prepared using click chemistry and evaluated for anti-adipogenic activity. Based on the structure-activity relationship, essential functional groups which potentiate anti-adipogenic activity were identified. The lead compound 13m exhibited potent anti-adipogenic activity compared to its parent compounds with the IC-50 value of 1.67 μM. Further evaluation of anti-adipogenic activity was conducted in different cell lines such as C3H10T1/2 and hMSC with positive result. The anti-adipogenic effect of compound 13m was most prominent in the early phase of adipogenesis, which is driven by the G1 to S phase cell cycle arrest during mitotic clonal expansion. The mechanistic study suggests that compound 13m exhibit anti-adipogenic property by activating Wnt3a/β-catenin pathway, a known suppressor of key adipogenic genes PPARγ and C/EBPα. It is noteworthy that the compound 13m also reduced serum triglyceride, LDL and total cholesterol in Syrian Golden hamster model of dyslipidemia. The anti-adipogenic activity of compound 13m can also be correlated with decreased expression of PPARγ and increased expression of β-catenin in epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT) in vivo. The compound 13m also increased the expression of genes involved in reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) such as PPARα and LXR1α indicating another mechanism by which compound 13m ameliorates dyslipidemia in Syrian Golden hamster model. Overall this study provides a unique perspective into the anti-adipogenic/antidyslipidemic property of triazole and indole hybrids molecules with further scope to increase the anti-adipogenic potency for therapeutic intervention of obesity and metabolic syndrome.

The asymmetric dearomatization-addition reaction of halomethyloxazoles and halomethylindoles with aldehydes is realized in the presence of a carbazole-based bisoxazoline CrCl 2 complex to afford the corresponding enantioenriched, hydroxylated oxazoline and indoline products. The observed excellent chemo-, regio-, diastereo- and enantioselectivities are notable advantages of this protocol. The strategy established in this study is expected to find application in the synthesis of azaheterocycles with biological significance and useful functionalities.

The prognosis for glioblastoma patients is, at best, poor, with the median time of survival after diagnosis measured in months. As such, there is much need for the rapid development of potent and novel treatments. Herein, we report our preliminary findings on the SAR of a series of indole-3-carbinol and related fragments and reveal a potent lead with low micromolar activity against a particularly resistant glioblastoma cell culture, providing a new platform for future development of a new therapy in this area.

A Pt(ii)-catalyzed cyclization of (hetero)aryl-allenes has been developed, providing controllable synthesis of substituted 2,3-dihydropyrroles and polyheterocyclic skeletons. Another notable feature of this method is the dual-role of the Pt(ii) catalyst: initiation of the migration of the (hetero)arylmethylene group and the subsequent Friedel-Crafts type annulation.

An unprecedented tandem N-alkylation-ionic aza-Cope (or Claisen) rearrangement-hydrolysis reaction of readily available indolyl bromides with enamines is described. Due to the complicated nature of the two processes, an operationally simple N-alkylation and subsequent microwave-irradiated ionic aza-Cope rearrangement-hydrolysis process has been uncovered. The tandem reaction serves as a powerful approach to the preparation of synthetically and biologically important, but challenging, 2-reverse quaternary-centered prenylated indoles with high efficiency. Notably, unusual nonaromatic 3-methylene-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole architectures, instead of aromatic indoles, are produced. Furthermore, the aza-Cope rearrangement reaction proceeds highly regioselectively to give the quaternary-centered reverse prenyl functionality, which often produces a mixture of two regioisomers by reported methods. The synthetic value of the resulting nonaromatic 3-methylene-2,3-dihydro-1Hindole architectures has been demonstrated as versatile building blocks in the efficient synthesis of structurally diverse 2-reverse prenylated indoles, such as indolines, indolefused sultams and lactams, and the natural product bruceolline D.
