CuI-catalyzed highly regioselective C[sbnd]H functionalization of indoles using indole-3-tosylhydrazones as carbene precursor: An efficient synthesis of 3,3-bis(indolyl)methane derivatives

Herein, we have developed a novel approach for synthesizing symmetrical and unsymmetrical 3,3-bis(indolyl)methane derivatives via CuI-catalyzed C[sbnd]H functionalization of indole using indole-3-tosylhydrazones as carbene precursor. This procedure works well with different substitutions such as NO2, Br, CH3 and OMe on indole or indole-3-tosylhydrazones and features high regioselectivity for C-3 functionalization over the C-1 and N-1 positions. Further, we have also revealed the feasibility of this protocol in a one-pot fashion starting from indole-3-carboxyaldehyde.

Small molecule-mediated induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress in cancer cells

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is one of the crucial sub-cellular organelles controlling myriads of functions including protein biosynthesis, folding, misfolding and unfolding. As a result, dysregulation of these pathways in the ER is implicated in cancer development and progression. Subsequently, targeting the ER in cancer cells emerged as an interesting unorthodox strategy in next-generation anticancer therapy. However, development of small molecules to selectively target the ER for cancer therapy remained elusive and unexplored. To address this, herein, we have developed a novel small molecule library of sulfonylhydrazide-hydrazones through a short and concise chemical synthetic strategy. We identified a fluorescent small molecule that localized into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of HeLa cells, induced ER stress followed by triggering autophagy which was subsequently inhibited by chloroquine (autophagy inhibitor) to initiate apoptosis. This small molecule showed remarkable cancer cell killing efficacy in different cancer cells as mono and combination therapy with chloroquine, thus opening a new direction to illuminate ER-biology towards the development of novel anticancer therapeutics.

Synthesis of heterocycle-attached methylidenebenzenesulfonohydrazones as antifungal agents

A series of heterocycle-attached methylidenebenzenesulfonohydrazone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their antifungal activities against seven phytopathogenic fungi such as Fusarium graminearum, Alternaria solani, Valsa Mali, Phytophthora ca

Design and bio-evaluation of indole derivatives as potent Kv1.5 inhibitors

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the common arrhythmias that threaten human health. Kv1.5 potassium channel is reported as an efficacious and safe target for the treatment of AF. In this paper, we designed and synthesized three series of compounds through modifying the lead compound RH01617 that was screened out by the pharmacophore model we reported earlier. All of the compounds were evaluated by the whole-patch lamp technology and most of them possessed potent inhibitory activities against Kv1.5. Compounds IIIi and IIIl were evaluated for the target selectivity as well as the pharmacodynamic effects in an isolated rat model. Due to the promising pharmacological behavior, compound IIIl deserves further pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic evaluations.

Synthesis, anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity evaluation of some amidine and hydrazone derivatives

A number of amidine derivatives (3a-i) were synthesized by condensation of cyanopyridine and cyanopyrazine with sulfonylhydrazides in the presence of sodium methoxide. 2-Acetylpyridine and 4-acetylpyridine were condensed with sulfonylhydrazides by microwa
