Following our studies on structure-activity relationships of anti-rhinovirus chromene and chroman derivatives, we designed and synthesized new series of 3-phenylalkyl-2H-chromenes and -chromans bearing differently sized, aliphatic linker chains between the two cycles. The cytotoxicity and the antiviral activity of the new compounds on human rhinovirus (HRV) serotype 1B and 14 infection were evaluated in HeLa cell cultures. Most of the tested compounds interfered with HRV1B multiplication in the micromolar or submicromolar concentrations while HRV14 was less susceptible. 3-[3-(4-Chlorophenyl)propyl]chroman (9c) was selected for preliminary mechanism of action studies due to its potent activity against both serotypes (IC50 of 0.48?μM and 1.36?μM towards HRV1B and 14, respectively) coupled with high selectivity (SI?=?206.18 and 73.26, respectively). Results of time of addition/removal studies suggest that 9c, similarly to related derivatives, behaves as a capsid binder interfering with some early events of the HRV1B infectious cycle.

Rhodium(II) acetate-catalysed cyclisation of α-diazoketones derived from 3-arylpropionic acid produces bicyclodecatrienones or 2-tetralones depending on the substitution pattern of the aryl ring in the precursor; the former products are transformed into the latter catalytically with trifluoroacetic acid.Precursors with methyl, methoxy, and acetoxy substituents have been examined, efficient cyclisation occurring in all cases.When the precursor contains a meta-methoxy substituent, 2-tetralones are obtained directly.The efficient conversion of 3-phenylpropionicacid into trans-1-methylbicyclodecan-2-one is also described, partial asymmetric synthesis having been realised through the use of rhodium (S)-mandelate as the cyclisation catalyst.Cyclisations of diazoketones derived from 4-phenylbutyric acid and 5-phenylpentanoic acid have also been studied; the former provides a new entry into the bicycloundecane system whereas the latter produces a 2,3-disubstituted cyclopentanone via C-H insertion.Aspects of the cycloheptatriene-norcaradiene equilibrium in fused ring systems are discussed.
