ERα controls the breast tissue development and progression of breast cancer. In our search for novel compounds to target Estrogen Receptor Alpha Ligand-Binding Domain, we identified “N-(3-((1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)phenyl)acetamide” derivatives as lead compounds. The Docking studies indicated good docking score for Metacetamol derivatives when docked into the 1XP6. A series of metacetamol derivatives have been synthesized, characterized and evaluated for cytotoxicity, anti bacterial and anti oxidant activities. Among the tested twelve hybrid compounds, “7a, 7g, 7h and 7i” derivatives showed promising cytotoxicity with IC50 value of 50 value of 30 μM, whereas Compounds “7a, 7b, 7c, 7d, 7g, 7j, 7k and 7l” showed moderate anti bacterial activity with the MIC value of 300 μM.

We describe the first thiourea-catalyzed C?F bond activation. The use of a thiourea catalyst and Ti(OiPr)4 as a fluoride scavenger allows the amination of benzylic fluorides to proceed in moderate to excellent yields. Preliminary results with S- and O-based nucleophiles are also presented. DFT calculations reveal the importance of hydrogen bonds between the catalyst and the fluorine atom of the substrate to lower the activation energy during the transition state.

BrCCl3 represents a rarely used benzylic brominating reagent with complementary reactivity to other reagents. Its reactivity has been revisited in continuous flow, revealing compatibility with electron-rich aromatic substrates. This has brought about the development of a p-methoxybenzyl bromide generator for PMB protection, which was successfully demonstrated on a pharmaceutically relevant intermediate on 11 g scale, giving 91% yield and a PMB-Br space-time-yield of 1.27 kg L?1 h?1

Aim: Retinoic acid receptor-related orphan nuclear receptors (RORs) are orphan nuclear receptors that show constitutive activity in the absence of ligands. Among 3 subtypes of RORs, RORc is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of Th17-mediated autoimmune diseases. Here, we report novel RORc inverse agonists discovered through structure-based drug design. Methods: Based on the structure of compound 8, a previously described agonist of RORa, a series of 4-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one derivatives were designed and synthesized. The interaction between the compounds and RORc was detected at molecular level using AlphaScreen assay. The compounds were further examined in 293T cells transfected with RORc and luciferase reporter gene. Thermal stability shift assay was used to evaluate the effects of the compounds on protein stability. Results: A total of 27 derivatives were designed and synthesized. Among them, the compound 22b was identified as the most potent RORc inverse agonist. Its IC50 values were 2.39 μmol/L in AlphaScreen assay, and 0.82 μmol/L in inhibition of the cell-based luciferase reporter activity. Furthermore, the compound 22b displayed a 120-fold selectivity for RORc over other nuclear receptors. Moreover, a molecular docking study showed that the structure-activity relationship was consistent with the binding mode of compound 22b in RORc. Conclusion: 4-(4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl)-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one derivatives are promising candidates for the treatment of Th17-mediated autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and multiple sclerosis.

, p. 173 - 183 (2016/05/19)
1,3,4,6-Tetrachloro (TCDGU) and 1,3,4,6-tetrabromo-3α,6α-diphenylglycolurils smooth halogen oxidizers have been exploited in a new direction as reagents for free radical substitution toward some N-halosuccinimide nonreactive bis-heterocycles. An unexpected selectivity and reactivity were observed with methyl benzenes, methyl heterocycles, and methyl-bis-heterocycles of interest. A chemometric study has been performed to optimize five independent factors of the chlorination reaction with TCDGU. The predictive model was established either for the halogenation conversion and the ratio of monochlorination.

The reaction of diverse alkylarenes with tribromoisocyanuric acid (0.34 mol equiv) in reflux EtOAc in the absence of any catalysts or light irradiation produced the corresponding benzyl bromides in 53-88% yield.
Clay-Supported Cu(II) Catalyst: An Efficient, Heterogeneous, and Recyclable Catalyst for Synthesis of 1,4-Disubstituted 1,2,3-Triazoles from Alloxan-Derived Terminal Alkyne and Substituted Azides Using Click Chemistry

A novel series of alloxan-derived 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles was synthesized in excellent yields under catalytic conditions using a click reaction strategy through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. Their structures have been ascertained on the basis of spectroanalytical and elemental analysis data. Synthesis of hybrid compounds with varying substitutions in the triazole ring was achieved by reaction between alloxan-derived terminal alkyne and a pertinent azide derivative in the presence of clay-Cu(II) as the catalyst in methanolic medium. Also, comparative evaluation of various catalytic systems [viz., CuI, CuSO4, CuI-zeolite, K10Ti, and clay-Cu(II)] was investigated. Of these catalytic systems, clay-Cu(II) was observed to be the best. The catalyst was recyclable for several runs without showing significant loss in its activity. The good selectivity, cost-efficiency, short reaction time, milder reaction conditions, and simple workup procedure are the added salient features of this synthetic protocol.
On the ionizing properties of supercritical carbon dioxide: Uncatalyzed electrophilic bromination of aromatics

Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2), a solvent with a zero dipole moment, low dielectric constant, and no hydrogen bonding behavior, is a suitable medium to perform the uncatalyzed electrophilic bromination of weakly activated aromatics with no interference of radical pathways. The ability of scCO2 to promote these reactions matches those of strongly ionizing solvents such as aqueous acetic and trifluoroacetic acids. Conversely, carbon tetrachloride, with similar polarity parameters to scCO2, leads exclusively to side chain functionalization. The strong quadrupole moment, and the acidic, but non basic, Lewis character of carbon dioxide, are proposed as key factors for the singular performance of scCO2 in reactions involving highly polar and ionic intermediates.

A continuous-flow protocol for the bromination of benzylic compounds with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) is presented. The radical reactions were activated with a readily available household compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) using a simple flow reactor design based on transparent fluorinated ethylene polymer (FEP) tubing. All of the reactions were carried out using acetonitrile as the solvent, thus avoiding hazardous chlorinated solvents such as CCl4. For each substrate, only 1.05 equiv of NBS was necessary to fully transform the benzylic starting material into the corresponding bromide. The general character of the procedure was demonstrated by brominating a diverse set of 19 substrates containing different functional groups. Good to excellent isolated yields were obtained in all cases. The novel flow protocol can be readily scaled to multigram quantities by operating the reactor for longer time periods (throughput 30 mmol h-1), which is not easily possible in batch photochemical reactors. The bromination protocol can also be performed with equal efficiency in a larger flow reactor utilizing a more powerful lamp. For the bromination of phenylacetone as a model, a productivity of 180 mmol h -1 for the desired bromide was achieved.

A convenient synthesis of 2,4-unsubstituted quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl esters via a domino process is described. The synthesis employs arylmethyl azides as the precursor which undergoes an acid-promoted rearrangement to give an N-aryl iminium ion. Following the addition with ethyl 3-ethoxyacrylate, intramolecular electrophilic aromatic substitution, elimination and subsequent oxidation, the quinoline products were obtained in moderate to excellent yields.
