Hydrazone is a bioactive pharmacophore that can be used to design antitumor agents. We synthesised a series of hydrazones (compounds 4–24) incorporating a 4-methylsulfonylbenzene scaffold and analysed their potential antitumor activity. Compounds 6, 9, 16, and 20 had the most antitumor activity with a positive cytotoxic effect (PCE) of 52/59, 27/59, 59/59, and 59/59, respectively, while compounds 5, 10, 14, 15, 18, and 19 had a moderate antitumor activity with a PCE of 11/59–14/59. Compound 20 was the most active and had a mean 50% cell growth inhibition (GI50) of 0.26 μM. Compounds 9 and 20 showed the highest inhibitory activity against COX-2, with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 2.97 and 6.94 μM, respectively. Compounds 16 and 20 significantly inhibited EGFR (IC50 = 0.2 and 0.19 μM, respectively) and HER2 (IC50 = 0.13 and 0.07 μM, respectively). Molecular docking studies of derivatives 9, 16, and 20 into the binding sites of COX-2, EGFR, and HER2 were carried out to explore the interaction mode and the structural requirements for antitumor activity.

An efficient copper-catalyzed addition of arylboronic esters to (Boc) 2O was developed. The reaction can be conducted under exceedingly mild conditions and is compatible with a variety of synthetically relevant functional groups. It therefore represents a useful alternative route for the synthesis of methyl arylcarboxylates. A preliminary mechanistic study indicated the involvement of an addition-elimination mechanism.

The development of eco-friendly and switchable catalytic systems for the conversion of a sole raw-material into distinct high-value products is a particularly attractive concept and a daunting synthetic challenge. In the present work, the first example of efficient and selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfones and sulfoxides using molecular oxygen under clean conditions was established.
