A facile synthesis of multi-functionalized benzothiazonine was achieved by the rhodium-catalyzed denitrogenative annulation of 1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazole and thiochromone. In view of the excellent atom economy, broad substrate scope and easy availability of starting materials, the protocol provided an efficient strategy for the construction of mediumN,S-heterocycles.

A series of novel 5H-Thiochromeno[4,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives were synthesized, purified and characterized by different spectroscopy techniques such as1H NMR,13C NMR, Mass and Elemental Analysis. The new compounds were evaluated for their anti-cervical cancer activity on Human Cervical Cell Line HeLa. They were found to be potent anti-cervical cancer agents with GI50 values less than 10 μg/mL with respect to positive control drug Adriamycin.

A highly efficient asymmetric synthesis of chiral thiochromanones is developed via Cu(I)/phosphoramidite catalyzed asymmetric alkynylation of thiochromones under mild reaction conditions. The catalyst system is tolerant of various thiochromone precursors and terminal alkynes. The established asymmetric transformation provides different enatiomeric-enriched thiochromanones with more molecular complexity and enables access to chiral thioflavanones, a subgroup of flavonoid by further functionalization.

A series of 4-chloro-2H-thiochromenes featuring nitrogen-containing side chains were designed, synthesized and tested in vitro for their antifungal activities. The results of preliminary antifungal tests showed that most target compounds exhibited good inhibitory activities against Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans, Candida tropicalis. Notably, compounds 10e and 10y showed most potent activity in vitro against a variety of fungal pathogens with low MICs. Meanwhile, low cytotoxicity on mammalian cells has been observed for compounds 10e and 10y in the tested concentrations by the MTT assay. Therefore, the 4-chloro-2H-thiochromenes with nitrogen-containing groups provide new lead structures in the search for novel antifungal agents.

Lithium dialkylcuprates undergo conjugate addition to thiochromones to afford 2-alkylthiochroman-4-ones in good yields. This approach provide an efficient and general synthetic approach to privileged sulfur-containing structural motifs and valuable precursors for many pharmaceuticals, starting from common substrates-thiochromones. Good yields of 2-alkyl-substituted thiochroman-4-ones are attained with lithium dialkylcuprates, lithium alkylcyanocuprates or substoichiometric amount of copper salts. The use of commercially available inexpensive alkyllithium reagents will expedite the synthesis of a large library of 2-alkyl substituted thiochroman-4-ones for additional synthetic applications.

The enantioselective incorporation of alkyl groups in thiochromones was realized for the first time by a Cu/(R, S)-PPF-P t Bu 2 -catalyzed conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to thiochromones. With this method, a series of 2-methylthiochromanones were obtained in good yields (up to 96% yield) with moderate-to-good ee values (up to 87% ee). The established method expedites the synthesis of a large library of chiral thiochromanones for further synthetic applications and biological studies.

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a neglected tropical disease, which causes severe skin lesions. Due to the lack of effective vaccines, and toxicity or reduced effectiveness of available drugs in addition to complex and prolonged treatments, there is an urgent need to develop alternatives for the treatment for CL with different mechanisms of action. In our effort to search for new promising hits against Leishmania parasites we prepared 18 acyl hydrazone derivatives of thiochroman-4-ones. Compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antileishmanial activity against the intracellular amastigote form of Leishmania panamensis and cytotoxic activity against human monocytes (U-937 ATCC CRL-1593.2). Our results show that derivatization of the thiochroman-4-ones with acyl hydrazones significantly enhances the antileishmanial activity. Among the compounds tested semicarbazone and thiosemicarbazone derivatives of thioflavanone 19 and 20 displayed the highest antileishmanial activities, with EC50 values of 5.4 and 5.1 μM and low cytotoxicities (100.2 and 50.1 μM respectively), resulting in higher indexes of selectivity (IS).

The S-containing heterocyclic compounds benzothiopyrans or thiochromones stand out as having promising biological activities due to their structural relationship with chromones (benzopyrans), which are widely known as privileged scaffolds in medicinal chemistry. In this work, we report the synthesis of 35 thiochromone derivatives and the in vitro antileishmanial and cytotoxic activities. Compounds were tested against intracellular amastigotes of Leishmania panamensis and cytotoxic activity against human monocytes (U-937 ATCC CRL-1593.2). Compounds bearing a vinyl sulfone moiety, 4h, 4i, 4j, 4k, 4l and 4m, displayed the highest antileishmanial activity, with EC50 values lower than 10 μM and an index of selectivity over 100 for compounds 4j and 4l. When the double bond or the sulfone moiety was removed, the activity decreased. Our results show that thiochromones bearing a vinyl sulfone moiety are endowed with high antileishmanial activity and low cytotoxicity.

A highly efficient asymmetric synthesis of chiral thioflavanones is developed via conjugate addition of arylzinc reagents to thiochromones using Rh(COD)Cl2/(R)-3,4,5-MeO-MeOBIPHEP catalyst. This method overcomes catalyst poisoning and substrate inertness and affords a series of chiral thioflavanones (2-arylthiochroman-4-ones) in good yields (up to 91% yield) with excellent ee values (up to 97% ee). The established asymmetric synthesis paves the way for further pharmaceutical studies.

2-(Indole-3-yl)-thiochroman-4-ones were synthesized via ionic liquid and tested for in vitro antifungal activity. The contribution of ionic liquid to Michael addition reaction is significant. Structures of all compounds are elucidated by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. Most of these compounds showed better antifungal activity than fluconazole. The results suggest that 2-(indole-3-yl)-thiochroman-4-ones would be efficient antifungal agents.

Most of the target compounds exhibited significant antitumor activities against A549 and H460 cancer cell lines. The most potent compound 4-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-8,9-difluoro-2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-4, 5-dihydro-1H-thiochromeno[4,3-d]pyrimidine (CH05) (IC50 = 0.44 μM, 3.07 μM) was 2.0 and 8.4 times more active than gefitinib (IC50 = 0.89 μM, 16.81 μM) against A549 and H460 cell lines, respectively.

As epoxy functional group has high anticancer activity, α,β-epoxyketones were designed and synthesized as new anticancer agents, and their structures were confirmed by UV, 1H NMR, IR, MS technigeces and elemental analysis. Their in vitro anticancer activities were evaluated by MTT method and the results showed that the compound 4c exhibited good activity with IC50 of 17.8, 22.0 and 24.1 μg/mL against A-549, Hela and HepG2 cells, respectively. The dose of LD50 of the mice by intragastric administration was 1864.4 mg/kg. Therefore, the α,β-epoxyketones could potentially provide as new anticancer agents. A series of α,β-epoxyketones were synthesized in a four steps reaction and tested for their anticancer activities.
