This work deals with the design and synthesis of 18 barbituric acid derivatives bearing 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid and cinnamic acid scaffolds to find potent anticancer agents. The target molecules were obtained through Knoevenagel condensation and acylation reaction. The cytotoxicity was assessed by the MTT assay. Flowcytometry was performed to determine the cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, ROS levels and the loss of MMP. The ratios of GSH/GSSG and the MDA levels were determined by using UV spectrophotometry. The results revealed that introducing substitutions (CF3, OCF3, F) on the meta- of the benzyl ring of barbituric acid derivatives led to a considerable increase in the antiproliferative activities compared with that of corresponding ortho- and para-substituted barbituric acid derivatives. Mechanism investigation implied that the 1c could increase the ROS and MDA level, decrease the ratio of GSH/GSSG and MMP, and lead to cell cycle arrest. Further research is needed for structural optimization to enhance hydrophilicity, thereby improve the biological activity of these compounds.

A practical and efficient approach for the synthesis of fluorescent 2,3-naphthalimide derivatives has been developed from readily available starting materials via an intramolecular didehydro-Diels-Alder reaction, which proceeded well under room temperature, exhibiting a wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. The practicability of this methodology has been verified by one-step synthesis of the environmentally sensitive fluorophore 6-DMN on a gram scale with a shorter time, fewer steps and less waste disposal, and without the utilization of toxic transition metals. The present experimental and computational studies support the crucial role of the propiolimide moiety in the transformation.

Cinnamic acid, isolated from cinnamon bark, is a natural product with excellent bioactivity, and it effectively binds with cyclohexanedione to form novel 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitors. According to the active sub-structure combinat

1,n-Metal shift is an elegant alternative approach enabling the functionalization of remote C-H bonds from simple precursors. In this work, we report a novel and simple Pd0-catalyzed domino reaction involving 1,4-palladium shift and C(sp3)-H activation and leading to (fused) five-membered rings. This method allowed access to a broad range of valuable arylidene γ-lactams and indanones and was applied to the formal synthesis of (-)-pyrrolam.
Bioactivity and structure-activity relationship of cinnamic acid esters and their derivatives as potential antifungal agents for plant protection

A series of cinnamic acid esters and their derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for antifungal activities in vitro against four plant pathogenic fungi by using the mycelium growth rate method. Structure-activity relationship was derived also. Almost all of the compounds showed some inhibition activity on each of the fungi at 0.5 mM. Eight compounds showed the higher average activity with average EC50 values of 17.4-28.6 μg/mL for the fungi than kresoxim-methyl, a commercial fungicide standard, and ten compounds were much more active than commercial fungicide standards carbendazim against P. grisea or kresoxim-methyl against both P. grisea and Valsa Mali. Compounds C1 and C2 showed the higher activity with average EC50 values of 17.4 and 18.5 μg/mL and great potential for development of new plant antifungal agents. The structure-activity relationship analysis showed that both the substitution pattern of the phenyl ring and the alkyl group in the alcohol moiety significantly influences the activity. There exists complexly comprehensive effect between the substituents on the phenyl ring and the alkyl group in the alcohol moiety on the activity. Thus, cinnamic acid esters showed great potential the development of new antifungal agents for plant protection due to high activity, natural compounds or natural compound framework, simple structure, easy preparation, low-cost and environmentally friendly.

In Gram-negative bacteria, efflux pumps are able to prevent effective cellular concentrations from being achieved for a number of antibiotics. Small molecule adjuvants that act as efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs) have the potential to reinvigorate existing antibiotics that are currently ineffective due to efflux mechanisms. Through a combination of rigorous experimental screening and in silico virtual screening, we recently identified novel classes of EPIs that interact with the membrane fusion protein AcrA, a critical component of the AcrAB-TolC efflux pump in Escherichia coli. Herein, we present initial optimization efforts and structure-activity relationships around one of those previously described hits, NSC 60339 (1). From these efforts we identified two compounds, SLUPP-225 (17h) and SLUPP-417 (17o), which demonstrate favorable properties as potential EPIs in E. coli cells including the ability to penetrate the outer membrane, improved inhibition of efflux relative to 1, and potentiation of the activity of novobiocin and erythromycin.

A series of novel flavones derivatives were synthesized based on modification of the active ingredients of a traditional Chinese medicine Scutellaria baicalensis GEORGI and screened for anti-influenza activity. The synthetic baicalein (flavone) analogs, especially with the B-rings substituted with bromine atoms, were much more potent than oseltamivir or ribavirin against H1N1 Tamiflu-resistant (H1N1 TR) virus and usually with more favorable selectivity. The most promising were 5b, 5c, 6b and 6c, all displaying an 50% effective concentration (EC50) at around 4.0-4.5 μM, and a selective index (SI=50% cytotoxic concentration (CC50)/EC 50)>70. For seasonal H3N2-infected influenza virus, both 5a and 5b with SI >17.3 indicated superior to ribavirin. The flavonoids having both not-naturally-occurring bromo-substituted B-rings and appropriate hydroxyls positioning on the A-rings might be critical in determining the activity and selectivity against H1N1-Tamiflu-resistant infected influenza viruses.
