- Molecular recognition of synthesized halogenated chalcone by calf thymus DNA through multispectroscopic studies and analysis the anti-cancer, anti-bacterial activity of the compounds
-
The present study aims to elucidate the anti-cancer, antimicrobial activity of synthesized halogenated chalcones (1f, 1h, 1i) and their molecular interaction with calf thymus DNA. All the three compounds were characterized using different spectroscopic tools like FTIR, NMR. DFT and TDDFT computation were performed to support the structural and electronic parameter of the compounds. UV–vis absorbance, steady-state fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence, circular dichroism, helix melting, molecular docking study reveals that the compounds (1f, 1h, 1i) actively interact with ctDNA via groove binding mode. The binding constants (Kb) were calculated to be 1.29 × 104, 0.54 × 104 and 0.45 × 104 M?1 respectively for compounds 1f, 1h, 1i. The compounds were cytotoxic to almost every cell line (PC3, HeLa, A549, HCT116) tested, having minimal toxicity in normal NKE cell line, among which PC3 cells were more sensitive with an IC50 value of 10 μM. The values were determined using dose response curve and found between 10 and 49 μM for cancer cells and 70 μM for normal cell. Compounds also cause apoptosis in PC3 cells, which was confirmed by Annexin V-FITC/PI assay. Results showed that 1f, 1h, 1i target DNA, to persuade DNA damage mediated cancer cell death. The inhibition zone was formed in the screening test indicating the anti-bacterial activity of 1f, 1h & 1i against model pathogenic bacteria. So the present communication provides quantitative insight of halo-chalcone based anti-cancerous and antimicrobial molecule involving relevant target nucleic acid, which holds future promise in the development of new therapeutic agents.

- A new and efficient one-pot solid-supported synthesis of 1,2,4,6-tetraaryl-1,4-dihydropyridines
-
1,2,4,6-Tetraaryl-1,4-dihydropyridines were obtained by the one-pot reaction of chalcones and substituted anilines on the surface of Bi(III)nitrate-Al2O3. The reaction seems to proceed via β-oxygenation of Bi(III) enolised chalcones followed by Michael addition and heteroannulation with simultaneous retro aldol disproportionation. The presence of the ring-activating groups at ortho and para positions in the aniline seems to be essential for the reaction.

- Evaluation of novel chalcone-thiosemicarbazones derivatives as potential Anti-leishmania amazonensis agents and its HSA binding studies
-
A series of seven chalcone-thiosemicarbazones (5a–5g) were synthesized and evaluated as potential new drugs (anti-leishmanial effect). Although four of the chalcone-thiosemicarbazones are already known, none of them or any compound in this class has been previously investigated for their effects on parasites of the Leishmania genus. The compounds were prepared in satisfactory yields (40–75%) and these compounds were evaluated against promastigotes, axenic amastigotes and intracellular amastigotes of L. amazonensis after 48 h of culture. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of the intracellular amastigotes were determined to be in the range of 3.40 to 5.95 μM for all compounds assayed. The selectivity index showed value of 15.05 for 5a, whereas pentamidine (reference drug) was more toxic in our model (SI = 2.32). Furthermore, to understand the preliminary relationship between the anti-leishmanial activity of the chalcone-thiosemicarbazones, their electronic (σ), steric (MR) and lipophilicity (π) properties were correlated, and the results indicated that moieties with electronic withdrawing effects increase the anti-leishmanial activity. The preliminary pharmacokinetic evaluation of one of the most active compound (5e) was studied via interaction to human serum albumin (HSA) using multiple spectroscopic techniques combined with molecular docking. The results of antiparasitic effects against L. amazonensis revealed the chalcone-thiosemicarbazone class to be novel prototypes for drug development against leishmaniasis.

- Palladium-Catalyzed Synthesis of α-Methyl Ketones from Allylic Alcohols and Methanol
-
One-pot synthesis of α-methyl ketones starting from 1,3-diaryl propenols or 1-aryl propenols and methanol as a C1 source is demonstrated. This one-pot isomerization-methylation is catalyzed by commercially available Pd(OAc)2 with H2O as the only by-product. Mechanistic studies and deuterium labelling experiments indicate the involvement of isomerization of allyl alcohol followed by methylation through a hydrogen-borrowing pathway in these isomerization-methylation reactions.

A straightforward and general method has been developed for the synthesis of chalcone derivatives by a Claisen-Schmidt reaction in the presence of PPh3/I2 in 1,4-dioxane under reflux temperatures. With the condensation of the aromatic ketone and aldehyde occurring at non-strongly alkaline conditions, our proposed method significantly expands the range of applicable substrates, especially for groups that are unstable under alkaline conditions.

- Chemoselective reduction of ?,¢-unsaturated carbonyl and carboxylic compounds by hydrogen iodide
-
The selective reduction of ?,¢-unsaturated carbonyl compounds was achieved to produce saturated carbonyl compounds with aqueous HI solution. The introduction of an aryl group at an ? or ¢ position efficiently facilitated the reduction with good yield. The reaction was applicable to compounds bearing carboxylic acids and halogen atoms. Through the investigation of the reaction mechanism, it was found that Michael-type addition of iodide occurred to produce ¢-iodo compounds followed by the reduction of C-I bond via anionic and radical paths.

- C3 amino-substituted chalcone derivative with selective adenosine rA1 receptor affinity in the micromolar range

Abstract: To identify novel adenosine receptor (AR) ligands based on the chalcone scaffold, herein the synthesis, characterization and in vitro and in silico evaluation of 33 chalcones (15–36 and 37–41) and structurally related compounds (42–47) are reported. These compounds were characterized by radioligand binding and GTP shift assays to determine the degree and type of binding affinity, respectively, against rat (r) A1 and A2A ARs. The chalcone derivatives 24, 29, 37 and 38 possessed selective A1 affinity below 10?μM, and thus, are the most active compounds of the present series; compound 38 was the most potent selective A1 AR antagonist (Ki (r) = 1.6?μM). The structure–affinity relationships (SAR) revealed that the NH2-group at position C3 of ring A of the chalcone scaffold played a key role in affinity, and also, the Br-atom at position C3′ on benzylidene ring B. Upon in vitro and in silico evaluation, the novel C3 amino-substituted chalcone derivative 38—that contains an α,?-unsaturated carbonyl system and easily allows structural modification—may possibly be a synthon in future drug discovery. Graphic abstract: C3 amino-substituted chalcone derivative (38) with C3′ Br substitution on benzylidene ring B possesses selective adenosine rA1 receptor affinity in micromolar range.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]

- Reaction rate differences between organotrifluoroborates and boronic acids in BINOL-catalyzed conjugate addition to enones
-
Enantioselective organocatalysis has been successfully employed in combination with trifluoroborate reagents for novel organic transformations over the last decade. However, no experimental rate studies of these reactions have been reported. Herein we report Hammett plot analysis of the organocatalyzed enantioselective conjugate addition of alkenyl, aryl, and heteroaryl trifluoroborate salts to chalcone derivatives with substitution at both the β-aryl and keto-aryl positions. The rate trend for keto-aryl substitution diverges from that of boronic acid nucleophiles in that the keto-aryl substituent for trifluoroborate salts does not measurably impact reaction rate in a manner consistent with charge stabilization. In addition, variable temperature NMR in combination with quantitative thin-layer chromatography (TLC) analysis suggests that the reaction is impacted by the low solubility of the trifluoroborate salts, so particle size and stirring speed affect reaction rates.

The first highly enantioselective intermolecular Stetter reaction using simple enones is reported. A series of novel chiral BAC structures were designed and prepared. They were tested in the Stetter reaction with simple aldehydes and enones. The products were generated in excellent yields and enantioselectivities (up to 94% ee). Surprisingly, a substoichiometric amount of water was crucial to obtain high enantioselectivities. Chiral BACs were also shown to catalyze 1,6-conjugate addition reactions with paraquinone methides enantioselectively.

- Pharmacophore hybridization approach to discover novel pyrazoline-based hydantoin analogs with anti-tumor efficacy
-
In search for new and safer anti-cancer agents, a structurally guided pharmacophore hybridization strategy of two privileged scaffolds, namely diaryl pyrazolines and imidazolidine-2,4-dione (hydantoin), was adopted resulting in a newfangled series of compounds (H1-H22). Herein, a bio-isosteric replacement of “pyrrolidine-2,5-dione” moiety of our recently reported antitumor hybrid incorporating diaryl pyrazoline and pyrrolidine-2,5-dione scaffolds with “imidazoline-2,4-dione” moiety has been incorporated. Complete biological studies revealed the most potent analog among all i.e. compound H13, which was at-least 10-fold more potent compared to the corresponding pyrrolidine-2,5-dione, in colon and breast cancer cells. In-vitro studies showed activation of caspases, arrest of G0/G1 phase of cell cycle, decrease in the expression of anti-apoptotic protein (Bcl-2) and increased DNA damage. In-vivo assay on HT-29 (human colorectal adenocarcinoma) animal xenograft model unveiled the significant anti-tumor efficacy along with oral bioavailability with maximum TGI 36% (i.p.) and 44% (per os) at 50 mg/kg dose. These findings confirm the suitability of hybridized pyrazoline and imidazolidine-2,4-dione analog H13 for its anti-cancer potential and starting-point for the development of more efficacious analogs.

Compounds 6a–h were synthesized, and their antihyperlipidemic activity was evaluated in high cholesterol diet-fed rat model. Compounds 6e, 6f were found to decrease the levels of serum total cholesterol by 14–19% compared to control group. Total triglycerides were also reduced by 24–28% and LDL cholesterol by 16%. As expected from parent niacin, compounds 6e and 6f caused an elevation of HDL cholesterol by 33–41%. Docking study supported the ability of designed compounds to block NPC1L1 active site in a manner similar to that observed with ezetimibe.

We report herein the first KHMDS-catalyzed Michael additions of allylic alcohols to α,β-unsaturated amides through allylic isomerization. The reaction proceeds smoothly in the presence of only 5 mol% of KHMDS to afford a variety of 1,5-ketoamides in high yields. Mechanistic investigations, including experimental and computational studies, reveal that the KHMDS-catalyzed in-situ generation of the enolate from the allylic alcohol through a tunneling-assisted 1,2-hydride shift is the key to the success of this transformation.

Compounds 13b, 14b, 17f, and 21f were found to stabilize HDAC4; where, pyridyl linker swords were endowed with higher stabilization effects than naphthyl linker. Also, 13b and 14b showed best inhibitory activity on VEGFR-2 as compared to others. Compound 14b was most potent as evident by in-vitro and in-vivo biological assessments. It displayed anti-angiogenic potential by inhibiting endothelial cell proliferation, migration, tube formation and also suppressed new capillary formation in the growing chick chorioallantoic membranes (CAMs). It showed selectivity and potency towards HDAC4 as compared to other HDAC isoforms. Compound 14b (25 mg/kg, i.p.) also indicated exceptional antitumor efficacy on in-vivo animal xenograft model of human colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT-29). The mechanism of action of 14b was also confirmed by western blot.

The resulting iridium composite revealed excellent catalytic activity for the reaction of tert-butanesulfinamide with benzyl alcohols, while copper catalyst could realize the synthesis of unsaturated carbonyl compounds through the reaction of benzyl alcohols with ketones. This provided an efficient method for selective synthesis of unsaturated carbonyl compounds from benzyl alcohols and ketones in high yields with good recovery performance.

Under the condition of air, the water-soluble inorganic weak base is used as a catalyst to catalyze the hydrogen transfer reaction of the propargyl alcohol compound, so that the green synthesis of the high-trans selective chalcone compound is realized. Reaction temperature: 80 - 120 °C and reaction time 12 - 48 hours. To the technical scheme, any transition metal catalyst and ligand do not need to be used, inert gas protection is not needed, no other byproducts are generated, the atom economy 100%, green and environment friendliness are avoided, and the product is a high-selectivity (E)-type product. The reaction conditions are relatively low in requirement. Compared with the prior art, the alkali catalyst is obvious in advantages, and has a certain application prospect in the fields of organic synthesis, biochemistry, medicine and the like.

A method for the synthesis of ketones from aldehydes and boronic acids via a transition-metal-free C?H functionalization reaction is reported. The method employs nitrosobenzene as a reagent to drive the simultaneous activation of the boronic acid as a boronate and the activation of the C?H bond of the aldehyde as an iminium species that triggers the key C?C bond-forming step via an intramolecular migration from boron to carbon. These findings constitute a practical, scalable, and operationally straightforward method for the synthesis of ketones.

The synthesis of diverse pyrazol-4-ol and isoxazole-4-ol heterocycles involving only 3 reaction steps is reported in this study. However, the synthesis of carboxamide pyrazol-4-ol has failed in the conditions used in the synthesis, acid methanol solution. The carboxamide pyrazol-4-ol decomposes via dehydration, forming the respective pyrazol. Theoretical calculations were used to elucidate the dehydration reaction. We have found a mechanism for acid-catalyzed dehydration that can explain the experimental observations. The calculated free energy profile for acid-catalyzed dehydration of the carboxamide pyrazol-4-ol and phenylpyrazole-4-ol point out that the latter is more stable in relation dehydration, with a dehydration rate 100 times smaller in acid methanol solution.

- Aryl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamide derivatives bearing a sulfonamide moiety show single-digit nanomolar-to-subnanomolar inhibition constants against the tumor-associated human carbonic anhydrases IX and XII
-
A series of new 3-phenyl-5-aryl-N-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamide derivatives was designed here, synthesized, and studied for carbonic anhydrase (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitory activity against the human (h) isozymes I, II, and VII (cytosolic, off-target isoforms), and IX and XII (anticancer drug targets). Generally, CA I was not effectively inhibited, whereas effective inhibitors were identified against both CAs II (KIs in the range of 5.2-233 nM) and VII (KIs in the range of 2.3-350 nM). Nonetheless, CAs IX and XII were the most susceptible isoforms to this class of inhibitors. In particular, compounds bearing an unsubstituted phenyl ring at the pyrazoline 3 position showed 1.3-1.5 nM KIs against CA IX. In contrast, a subset of derivatives having a 4-halo-phenyl at the same position of the aromatic scaffold even reached subnanomolar KIs against CA XII (0.62-0.99 nM). Docking studies with CA IX and XII were used to shed light on the derivative binding mode driving the preferential inhibition of the tumor-associated CAs. The identified potent and selective CA IX/XII inhibitors are of interest as leads for the development of new anticancer strategies.

-
In search of novel and effective antitumor agents, pyrazoline-substituted pyrrolidine-2,5-dione hybrids were designed, synthesized and evaluated in silico, in vitro and in vivo for anticancer efficacy. All the compounds exhibited remarkable cytotoxic effects in MCF7 and HT29 cells. The excellent antiproliferative activity toward MCF7 (IC50=0.78±0.01 μM), HT29 (IC50=0.92±0.15 μM) and K562 (IC50=47.25±1.24 μM) cell lines, prompted us to further investigate the antitumor effects of the best compound S2 (1-(2-(3-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-(p-tolyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-2-oxoethyl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione). In cell-cycle analysis, S2 was found to disrupt the growth phases with increased cell population in G1/G0 phase and decreased cell population in G2/M phase. The excellent in vitro effects were also supported by inhibition of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2. In vivo tumor regression studies of S2 in HT29 xenograft nude mice, exhibited equivalent and promising tumor regression with maximum TGI, 66 % (i. p. route) and 60 % (oral route) at 50 mg kg?1 dose by both the routes, indicating oral bioavailability and antitumor efficacy. These findings advocate that hybridization of pyrazoline and pyrrolidine-2,5-dioes holds promise for the development of more potent and less toxic anticancer agents.

- Effect of substituents in the A and B rings of chalcones on antiparasite activity
-
Chalcones are a group of natural products with many recognized biological activities, including antiparasitic activity. Although a lot of chalcones have been synthetized and assayed against parasites, the number of structural features known to be involved in this biological property is small. Thus, in the present study, 21 chalcones were synthesized to determine the effect of substituents in the A and B rings on the activity against Leishmania braziliensis, Trypanosoma cruzi, and Plasmodium falciparum. The compounds were active against L. braziliensis in a structure-dependent manner. Only one compound was very active against T. cruzi, but none of them had a significant antiplasmodial activity. The electron-donating substituents in ring B and the hydrogen bonds at C-2′ with carbonyl affect the antiparasitic activity.

- N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyzed Synthesis of Trisubstituted Epoxides via Tandem Amidation/Epoxidation Sequence
-
A tandem amidation/epoxidation sequence between various substituted chalcones and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) for the synthesis of trisubstituted epoxides employing N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis was developed. This reaction was performed under metal-free conditions in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant. Trisubstituted epoxides bearing a ketone and an amide functionality (N,N-dimethyl formyl group) were synthesized starting from a wide range of chalcones in moderate to good yields with excellent diastereoselectivity.

- Photoredox β-thiol-α-carbonylation of enones accompanied by unexpected Csp2-C(CO) bond cleavage
-
An olefinic difunctionalization method of enones was presented hereviaaerobic visible-light catalysis. A novel reactivity was showcased in conjunction with the selective Csp2-C(CO) bond activation of enones, which provided a convenient method for the preparation of various β-thiolated-α-functionalized compounds. Moreover, the preliminary investigation of the mechanism indicated that a β-peroxysulfide intermediate was formed under the promotion of visible light under an oxygen atmosphere, which finally induced the unexpected C-C bond cleavage.

- Diversified Transformations of Tetrahydroindolizines to Construct Chiral 3-Arylindolizines and Dicarbofunctionalized 1,5-Diketones
-
Enantioselective diverse synthesis of a small-molecule collection with structural and functional similarities or differences in an efficient manner is an appealing but formidable challenge. Asymmetric preparation and branching transformations of tetrahydroindolizines in succession present a useful approach to the construction of N-heterocycle-containing scaffolds with functional group, and stereochemical diversity. Herein, we report a breakthrough toward this end via an initial diastereo- A nd enantioselective [3 + 2] cycloaddition between pyridinium ylides and enones, following diversified sequential transformations. Chiral N,N′-dioxide-earth metal complexes enable the generation of optically active tetrahydroindolizines in situ, across the strong background reaction for racemate-formation. In connection with deliberate sequential transformations, involving convenient rearomatic oxidation, and light-active aza-Norrish II rearrangement, the tetrahydroindolizine intermediates were converted into the final library including 3-arylindolizine derivatives and dicarbofunctionalized 1,5-dicarbonyl compounds. More importantly, the stereochemistry of four-stereogenic centered tetrahydroindolizine intermediates could be efficiently transferred into axial chirality in 3-arylindolizines and vicinal pyridyl and aryl substituted 1,5-diketones. In addition, densely functionalized cyclopropanes and bridged cyclic compounds were also discovered depending on the nature of the pyridinium ylides. Mechanism studies were involved to explain the stereochemistry during the reaction processes.

- Tuning the Product Selectivity of the α-Alkylation of Ketones with Primary Alcohols using Oxidized Titanium Nitride Photocatalysts and Visible Light
-
The direct α-alkylation of ketones with alcohol to synthesize important α-alkylated ketones and enones is an attractive procedure for C-C bond formation. High reaction temperatures are always needed for heterogeneous catalysis using non-noble metals, and switching product selectivity in one catalysis system remains a great challenge. In the present study, a visible-light-driven procedure for this reaction is proposed, using oxidized TiN photocatalysts under mild conditions, whereby the product selectivity can be well-tuned. Oxidized TiN photocatalysts with tunable surface N/O ratios were successfully synthesized through the facile and flexible thermal oxidation treatment of low-cost TiN nanopowder. The α-alkylation of acetophenone with benzyl alcohol to form the two important compounds chalcone and dihydrochalcone occurred even at room temperature and almost complete conversion was achieved at 100 °C under visible light. The proportion of the two products can be well-tuned by switching the surface N/O ratio of the synthesized photocatalysts. Visible light is demonstrated to affect the surface N/O ratio of the photocatalysts and contribute to tuning the product selectivity. Light intensity and action spectrum study proves that the generation of energetic charge carriers results in the observed activities under visible light, based on interband transitions of TiN or the ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) effect of the surface complex formed on TiO2. Thermal energy can be coupled with light energy within this photocatalytic system, which will facilitate the full use of solar energy. Different sequential reaction mechanisms on TiN and TiO2 are proposed to be responsible for the tunable product selectivity. The wide reaction scope, the fine conversion at a low light intensity, and the favorable reusability of photocatalysts prove the great application potential of this visible-light-driven procedure for the α-alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols.

- On the development of a nucleophilic methylthiolation methodology
-
Methylthiolation reactions are usually explored to access organosulfur compounds using methanethiol, an extremely flammable and toxic compound. Herein, methylthiomethyl esters were successfully applied as novel methylthiolation reagents in a low cost, transition-metal-free methodology. These reagents allowed the methylthiolation of a wide scope of chalcones, acyl ester derivatives and Morita-Baylis-Hillman acetates with good group tolerance, affording the methylthiolated products in moderate to excellent yields. The reaction mechanism was investigated through several control experiments, as well as by theoretical calculations employing Density Functional Theory. The results strongly support that a sulfurane and a sulfonium ylide appear as key intermediates and that a Pummerer type rearrangement is also crucial for the formation of this novel reagent. Furthermore, the methylthiolation mechanism is likely to proceed through the nucleophilic attack of the reagent, followed by an entropically favoured step involving the acetate attack to the positively charged species, then releasing the product.

- Development of 5-(Aryl)-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazole Derivatives as Potent Antimicrobial Compounds
-
A series of 16 chalcone compounds were synthesized by Claisen-Schmidt condensation of various aldehydes with acetophenone using KOH as a base in ethanol. The reaction affords the desired products in good yields. Then all the 16 compounds were converted into pyrazoles by treating with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol under reflux condition. Both chalcones and pyrazoles were screened for their in vitro antibacterial (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and antifungal (Aspergillus flavus, Chrysosporium keratinophilum and Candida albicans) activity. Biological activities of these compounds were compared with those of commercially available antibiotic ampicillin and antifungal agent miconazole. Pyrazoles were found to be most active and effective than corresponding chalcones for antimicrobial activity. Out of the 7 pyrazole compounds tested for antibacterial and antifungal activity, 5 compounds, 4h, 4j, 4l, 4m and 4n are turned out to be potent antimicrobial agents. Therefore these derivatives could serve as a highly promising molecules for further development.

- Application of Polyphosphoric Acid-Mediated Acyl Migration for Regiospecific Synthesis of Diverse 2-Acylpyrroles from Chalcones
-
A metal-free approach for the synthesis of 2-acylpyrroles is reported in this paper. Synthesis of the target molecule started from chalcones and was carried out in two steps. Initial step involved the conversion of chalcones to corresponding 4-substituted-3-acylpyrroles by reaction with TosMIC. In the subsequent step, target molecules were obtained in modest to good yields by polyphosphoric acid-mediated acyl rearrangement of 3-acylpyrroles to their 2-acyl congeners. The crucial final step was amenable to diverse substitutions on pyrrole ring. Preliminary experiment for the determination of mechanism indicated the involvement of acylium ion.

- Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer: Transition-Metal-Free Selective Reduction of Chalcones and Alkynes Using Xanthate/Formic Acid
-
Highly chemoselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones to saturated ketones and stereoselective reduction of alkynes to (E)-alkenes has been developed under a transition-metal-free condition using a xanthate/formic acid mixture through proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET). Mechanistic experiments and DFT calculations support the possibility of a concerted proton electron-transfer (CPET) pathway. This Birch-type reduction demonstrates that a small nucleophilic organic molecule can be used as a single electron-transfer (SET) reducing agent with a proper proton source.

- Design, synthesis, and carbonic anhydrase inhibition activity of benzenesulfonamide-linked novel pyrazoline derivatives
-
Carbonic anhydrases (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) are Zinc metalloenzymes and are present throughout most living organisms. Among the catalytically active isoforms are the cytosolic CA I and II, and tumor-associated CA IX and CA XII. The carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitory activities of newly synthesized pyrazoline-linked benzenesulfonamides 18–33 against human CA (hCA) isoforms I, II, IX, and XII were measured and compared with that of acetazolamide (AAZ), a standard inhibitor. Potent inhibitory activity against hCA I was exerted by compounds 18–25, with inhibition constant (KI) values of 87.8–244.1 nM, which were greater than that of AAZ (KI, 250.0 nM). Compounds 19, 21, 22, 29, 30, and 32 were proven to have inhibitory activities against hCA IX with KI values (5.5–37.0 nM) that were more effective than or nearly equal to that of AAZ (KI, 25.0 nM). Compounds 20–22, and 30 exerted potent inhibitory activities (KIs, 7.1–10.1 nM) against hCA XII, in comparison with AAZ (KI, 5.7 nM).

-
1-Arylvinyl formates as a kind of new CO surrogate have been explored for the first time. Most of the known CO precursors usually produce undesired residuals, which have to be removed. In this strategy, after CO release, the in situ generated acetophenones from 1-arylvinyl formates can be successfully applied as a good ketone source in the synthesis of chalcones with benzaldehydes via a palladium-catalyzed reductive carbonylation reaction. A variety of chalcones were isolated in satisfactory to good yields with good substrates compatibilities under mild conditions.

The challenge in the C-C cross-coupling of secondary and primary alcohols using acceptorless dehydrogenation coupling (ADC) is the difficulty in accurately controlling product selectivities. Herein, we report a controlled approach to a diverse range of β-alkylated secondary alcohols, α-alkylated ketones and α,β-unsaturated ketones using the ADC methodology employing a Ni(ii) 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2-thiolate cluster catalyst under different reaction conditions. This catalyst could tolerate a wide range of substrates and exhibited a high activity for the annulation reaction of secondary alcohols with 2-aminobenzyl alcohols to yield quinolines. This work is an example of precise chemoselectivity control by careful choice of reaction conditions.
