- Design and development of oxobenzimidazoles as novel androgen receptor antagonists
-
Antiandrogens are a novel class of anticancer agents that inhibit cancer cell proliferation and induce apoptosis in various cell lines. To find the lead compound from the oxobenzimidazole derivatives, receptor-ligand docking studies were initially performed using Schr?dinger software. The best fit molecules were synthesized and characterized through IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and HRMS analyses. The structure of compound (9b) was further confirmed by single-crystal XRD analysis. The cell viability of the compounds was determined by MTT assay to find IC50 values against prostate cancer and breast cancer cell lines (PC-3, LNCaP, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231). The ADME/T property studies were performed to rationalize the inhibitory properties of these compounds. It can be concluded from the study that 9b is the most active compound from the series against PC-3 and LNCaP cell lines.

- Palladium-catalyzed highly selective ortho-halogenation (I, Br, Cl) of arylnitriles via sp2 C-H bond activation using cyano as directing group
-
A palladium-catalyzed ortho-halogenation (I, Br, Cl) of arylnitrile is described. The optimal reaction conditions were identified after examining various factors such as catalyst, additive, solvent, and reaction temperature. Using cyano as the directing group, the halogenation reaction gave good to excellent yields. The method is compatible to the arylnitriles with either electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups. The reaction is available to the substrate in at least gram scale. The present method was successfully applied to the synthesis of the precursors of paucifloral F and isopaucifloral F.
