Abstract
The total synthesis of the Ganoderma meroterpenoid ganoapplanin, an inhibitor of T-type voltage-gated calcium channels, is reported. Our synthetic approach is based on the convergent coupling of a readily available aromatic polyketide scaffold with a bicyclic terpenoid fragment. The three contiguous stereocenters of the terpenoid fragment, two of which are quaternary, were constructed by a diastereoselective, titanium-mediated iodolactonization. For the fusion of the two fragments and to simultaneously install the crucial biaryl bond, we devised a highly effective two-component coupling strategy. This event involves an intramolecular 6-exo-trig radical addition of a quinone monoacetal followed by an intermolecular aldol reaction. A strategic late-stage oxidation sequence allowed the selective installation of the remaining oxygen functionalities and the introduction of the characteristic spiro bisacetal structure of ganoapplanin.

Abstract
An unprecedented radical-promoted strategy involving a domino alkylation/intramolecular C5-annulation of N-acryloyl-4-amino coumarin has been devised for the assembly of 4,5-fused coumarin scaffolds. This protocol employs silver-catalyzed oxidative decarboxylation for the generation of alkyl radicals from carboxylic acids, which were used as radical precursors. This method has also been extended to a diverse range of carbon-centered radicals generated from 2-oxo acids, a 1,3-dicarbonyl compound, isopropanol and acetone.

Abstract
Chartspiroton is a recently discovered naphthoquinone natural product that features a spiro-fused benzofuran lactone. We report its first synthesis via an 11-step linear sequence. The sterically hindered tetra-ortho-substituted biaryl subunit was installed by base-induced ring expansion of a readily available 1,3-indandione. This step also liberated the fully substituted naphthalene core unit at the same time. The unique spiro-fused benzofuran lactone of the natural product was constructed via late-stage oxidation of an advanced naphthoquinone.

Abstract
The target mono- and bis-(6-pyrazolyltriazolo-thiadiazine) derivatives 4a-c and 6a-d were synthesized using a straightforward protocol via reaction of 3-bromoacetylpyrazole 2 with 4-amino-s-triazole-3-thiols 3a-c and bis(4-amino-5-mercapto-s-triazol-3-yl)alkanes 5a-d, respectively. The bis(6-pyrazolyl-s-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine) derivatives 8a,b and 10 were also constructed by reaction of the triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine-3-thiol 4c with the proper dibromo compounds 7a,b and 9, respectively. Structures of the new substances were determined by spectroscopic and analytical data. Compounds 4b, 4c, and 6a showed potent cytotoxicity against MCF-7 (IC50 = 3.16, 2.74, and 0.39 μM, respectively) and were safe against the MCF-10A cells. Compounds 4b, 4c, and 6a also showed promising dual EGFR and CDK-2 inhibition activities, particularly 6a was the most effective (IC50 = 19.6 and 87.9 nM, respectively), better than Erlotinib and Roscovitine. Compound 6a treatment induced EGFR and CDK-2 enzyme inhibition by 97.18% and 94.11%, respectively, at 10 μM (the highest concentration). Compound 6a notably induced cell apoptosis in MCF-7 cells, increasing the cell population by total apoptosis 43.3% compared to 1.29% for the untreated control group, increasing the cell population at the S-phase by 39.2% compared to 18.6% (control).

Abstract
3-Bromoacetyl-4-(2-naphthoyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (6) was synthesized from 2-acetylnaphthalene and was used as a new key building block for constructing the title targets. Thus, the reaction of 6 with the thiosemicarbazones 7a-d and 9-11 afforded the corresponding simple naphthoyl-(3-pyrazolyl)thiazole hybrids 8a-d and 12 ~ 14. The symmetric bis-(2-naphthoyl-pyrazol-3-yl)thiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenoxy)alkanes 18a-c and 21a-c were similarly synthesized from reaction of 6 with the appropriate bis-thiosemicarbazones 17a-c and 19a-c, respectively. The synthesized two series of simple and symmetrical bis-molecular hybrid merging naphthalene, thiazole, and pyrazole were evaluated for their cytotoxicity. Compounds 18b,c and 21a showed the most potent cytotoxicity (IC50 = 0.97-3.57 µM) compared to Lapatinib (IC50 = 7.45 µM). Additionally, they were safe (non-cytotoxic) against the THLE2 cells with higher IC50 values. Compounds 18c exhibited promising EGFR and HER-2 inhibitory activities with IC50 = 4.98 and 9.85 nM, respectively, compared to Lapatinib (IC50 = 6.1 and 17.2 nM). Apoptosis investigation revealed that 18c significantly activated apoptotic cell death in HepG2 cells, increasing the death rate by 63.6-fold and arresting cell proliferation at the S-phase. Compound 18c upregulated P53 by 8.6-fold, Bax by 8.9-fold, caspase-3,8,9 by 9, 2.3, and 7.6-fold, while it inhibited the Bcl-2 expression by 0.34-fold. Thereby, compound 18c exhibited promising cytotoxicity against EGFR/HER2 inhibition against liver cancer.

Abstract
Herein, we disclose a fascinating highly stereoselective P(NMe2)3 mediated intramolecular deoxygenative umpolung cascade Michael addition-initiated cyclopropanation with a diverse substrate adaptability. This methodology creates a new horizon for expedient access to valuable 6,5,3-fused scaffolds having an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter via Kukhtin-Ramirez (K-R) adduct formation, with excellent diastereoselectivity and yields under metal-free ambient conditions. A few functional group transformations have also been performed successfully. Additionally, an asymmetric catalytic attempt using (R)-(+)-H8-BINOL has delivered good enantioselectivity.

Abstract
We report a general synthetic entry to dihydrooxepine-spiroisoxazoline (DOSI) natural products that culminated in the first racemic total synthesis of psammaplysin A. For the synthesis of the unique spirocyclic fragment we employed a strategy that features two key transformations: (1) a diastereoselective Henry reaction/cyclization sequence to access the C7 hydroxylated isoxazoline scaffold in one step and (2) a regioselective Baeyer-Villiger ring expansion to install the fully substituted dihydrooxepine and avoid the risk of a previously observed oxepine-arene oxide rearrangement. The overall synthesis proceeds in 13 steps from an inexpensive starting material.

Abstract
Enantiomerically enriched cyclopropyl ethers, amines, and cyclopropylazole derivatives possessing three stereogenic carbon atoms in a small cycle are obtained via the diastereoselective, formal nucleophilic substitution of chiral, non-racemic bromocyclopropanes. The key feature of this methodology is the utilization of the chiral center of the cyclopropene intermediate, which governs the configuration of the two adjacent stereocenters that are successively installed via 1,4-addition/epimerization sequence.

Abstract
The cyclocondensation reaction of aldehydes with dimedone and bis(6-aminopyrimidin-4-one) in acetic acid led to the formation of the corresponding bis(pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-4,6-diones) which are known as bis(sulfanediyl)bis(tetrahydro-5-deazaflavin) analogs in a single step. Also, bis(pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-4,6-diones) which are linked to naphthyl core via phenoxymethyl linkage is prepared. The interactions of the synthesized compounds with DNA and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied. Gel electrophoresis assay was used to show the capability of the compounds to photocleave the supercoiled pBR322 plasmid DNA in UV-A (365 nm). Besides, the most photocleavable compound, bis(tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-4,6-dione) linked to pyridin-3-yl at position-5 exhibits good binding affinities toward CT-DNA and BSA as supported by UV/VIS spectral studies. In addition to the experimental findings, a molecular docking simulation was performed to collect detailed binding data for this compound to both biomolecules.

Abstract
Reported herein is an electrophile-modulated aromatization reaction of highly functionalized cyclopropanes to structurally diverse benzoisocoumarins featuring concurrent formation of the benzenoid and α-pyrone rings under mild conditions. An aromatization reaction of the proposed benzonorcaradiene intermediates prepared independently revealed a crucial role of the neighboring olefinic substituents in determining whether the cyclopropane ring expansion is followed by a 1,2-shift of the ester group.

Abstract
Herein, we describe a two-step ring expansion of 1-indanones to afford 2-chloro/bromo-1-naphthols (32 examples). The developed method shows broad functional group tolerance, benefits from mild reaction conditions, and enables rapid access to the tetracyclic core of gilvocarcin natural products. The orthogonally functionalized products allow for selective postmodifications as exemplified in the total synthesis of defucogilvocarcin M. For the selective oxidation of the chromene, a mild and regioselective oxidation protocol (DDQ and TBHP) was developed.

Abstract
Toxicity studies are necessary for the development of a new drug. Naphthalene is a bicyclic molecule and is easy to derivatize. In our previous study, a derivative of naphthalene (4-phenyl,3,4-dihydrobenzoquinoline-2(H)one) was synthesized and reported its in vitro activity on different enzymes. This study was a probe to investigate the toxicity potential of that compound (SF3). Acute oral (425), subacute (407), and teratogenicity (414) studies were planned according to their respective guidelines given by organization of economic cooperation and development (OECD). Acute oral, subacute, and teratogenicity studies were carried out on 2000, 5-40, and 40 mg/kg doses. Blood samples were collected for hematological and biochemical analyses. Vital organs were excised for oxidative stress (superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione, and malondialdehyde) and histopathological analysis. LD 50 of SF3 was higher than 2000 mg/kg. In acute and subacute studies, levels of alkaline phosphates and aspartate transaminase were increased. Teratogenicity showed no resorptions, no skeletal or soft tissue abnormalities, and no cleft pallet. Oxidative stress biomarkers were close to the normal, and no increase in the malondialdehyde level was seen. Histopathological studies revealed normal tissue architecture of the selected organs, except kidney, in acute oral and subacute toxicity studies at 40 mg/kg. The study concluded that SF3 is safer if used as a drug.

Abstract
A concise and efficient method for the synthesis of 7-hydroxy-6H-naphtho[2,3-c]coumarin using available 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-phenylethanone and Meldrum's acid has been developed. This transformation involved a tandem aldol reaction/lactonization/Friedel-Crafts reaction to form a lactone ring and a benzene ring. It showed high atom economy with water and acetone as the byproducts. Mechanism studies demonstrated two roles of Meldrum's acid: (i) as the reagent for the tandem reaction, and (ii) as the catalyst for the Friedel-Crafts reaction. Moreover, the hydroxyl group of 7-hydroxy-6H-naphtho[2,3-c]coumarin was further functionalized efficiently by arylethynyl, aryl, and cyano groups to furnish D-π-A compounds with excellent fluorescence emissions (ΦF = 0.14-0.78).

Abstract
Multitarget-directed drugs (hybrid drugs) constitute an efficient avenue for the treatment of multifactorial diseases. In this work, novel naphthalene hybrids with different heterocyclic scaffolds such as nicotinonitrile, pyran, pyranopyrazole, pyrazole, pyrazolopyridine, and azepine were efficiently synthesized via tandem reactions of 3-formyl-4H-benzo[h]chromen-4-one 1 with different nucleophilic reagents. Analysis of these hybrids using PASS online software indicated different predicted biological activities such as anticancer, antimicrobial, antiviral, antiprotozoal, anti-inflammatory, etc. By focusing on antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and antituberculosis activities, many compounds revealed remarkable activities. While 3c, 3e, and 3h were more potent than doxorubicin in the case of HepG-2 cell lines, 3a–e, 3i, 6, 8, 10, 11, and 12b were more potent in the case of MCF-7. Moreover, compounds 3c, 3h, 8, 10, 3d, and 12b manifested superior activity and COX-2 selectivity to the reference anti-inflammatory Celecoxib. Regarding antituberculosis activity, 3c, 3d, and 3i were found to be the most promising with MIC less than 1 μg mL−1. The molecular docking studies showed strong polar and hydrophobic interactions with the novel naphthalene-heterocycle hybrids that were compatible with experimental evaluations to a great extent. Novel naphthalene-heterocycle hybrids were synthesized via tandem reactions of 3-formylchromone with different nucleophilic reagents. Various hybrids revealed potent antitumor and anti-inflammatory as well as promising antituberculosis activities.![]()

Abstract
Lanthanide bis(trimethylsilyl)amides, [(Me3Si)2N]3Ln(μ-Cl)Li(THF)3, were used as efficient catalysts for a one-pot reaction of α-ketoesters, dialkyl phosphite, and activated alkenes to produce α-dicarbonyl cyclopropanes in moderate to high yields. The reaction was stereoselective and the two adjacent carbonyls linked to the cyclopropane were in the cis-configuration. The high efficiency of the lanthanide amide in catalysing the reaction is the result of the cooperation between the lanthanide metal centre and the N(SiMe3)2 anion.

Abstract
We describe the evolution of a synthetic strategy for the construction of the marine polyketide salimabromide. Combining a bicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-one ring-expansion to build up a functionalized naphthalene and an unprecedented rearrangement/cyclization cascade, enabled synthesis of a dearomatized tricyclic subunit of the target compound. Alternatively, an intramolecular ketiminium [2+2]-cycloaddition and subsequent Baeyer-Villiger ring-expansion gave access to the sterically encumbered architecture of salimabromide. Sequential oxidation of the carbon framework finally enabled the total synthesis of this unusual natural product.

Abstract
A domino silver(I)-promoted electrocyclic 2π-disrotatory electrocyclic ring-opening/intramolecular nucleophilic trapping of [ n.1.0]-dibromocyclopropanes by tethered carboxylic acids results in cyclization to butyrolactones fused to six- and seven-membered carbocycles. In the case of bicyclic [4.3.0] lactones the cis-fused stereoisomer was formed, whereas for the bicyclic [5.3.0] lactones the trans-fused stereoisomer was formed. Optimal conditions for the reaction used silver(I) trifluoroacetate (2.0 equiv) in trifluoroethanol or with added pyridine (2.0 equiv) and NaPF6 (5.0 equiv). The dibromocyclopropane precursors were made through cyclopropanation with in situ-generated dibromocarbene. The trans-fused lactones are potentially useful building blocks for pseudoguaianolide, guaianolide, and xanthanolide total synthesis. A computational study on the conformational preferences of these systems indicates that the trans-fused bicyclic [5.3.0] butyrolactones are lower in energy than the corresponding cis-fused lactones at the B3LYP/cc-pVTZ level of theory.

Abstract
A novel disconnection based on cross-coupling chemistry was designed to access pharmaceutically relevant aryl-aminoethyl ethers. The developed palladium-catalyzed functionalization of aryl- and heteroaryl chlorides with a sodium tetrakis-(2-chloroethoxy) borate salt is orthogonal to the simple nucleophilic replacement of the chloro function of the ethylene linker. The transformation enables efficient 2-chloroethoxylation in the absence of an additional external base. Subsequent amine substitution of the alkyl halide affords 2-aminoethoxy arenes. The applicability of this method was demonstrated through the synthesis of various aryl- and heteroaryl-alkyl ethers, including the intermediates of marketed drug molecules.

Abstract
Benzannelated heterocycles such as indoles and indazoles are prominent structural motifs found in natural products, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. For their synthesis, chemists traditionally either functionalize commercially available heterocycles or resort to transformations that make use of benzene-derived building blocks. Here, we report a powerful cascade reaction that enables the de novo construction of variously substituted indoles, indazoles, benzofurans and benzothiophenes from readily available bicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-ones. The transformation can be conducted under mild, non-anhydrous conditions. For the synthesis of indoles, mechanistic studies revealed that the electrocyclic ring-opening of the bicyclic ring-system and aromatization precedes the 3,3-sigmatropic rearrangement.

Abstract
Serendipitous findings of an acid mediated skeletal rearrangement of bicyclo-β-ketoester having cyclopropyl ring to access fused tricyclic γ-butyrolactones has been described. This novel transformation has been optimized to 30 mol% p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TSA) in toluene using Dean-Stark apparatus, where the aldol condensation, cyclopropyl ring opening followed by cyclization took place in a single-pot operation. The resulting tricyclic compounds are interesting chemotype with natural product resemblance and may find useful applications in the future.

Abstract
Catalytic dehydrogenation of saturated or partially saturated six-membered carbocycles into aromatic rings represents an appealing strategy for the synthesis of substituted arenes. Particularly effective methods have been developed for the dehydrogenation of cyclohexanones and cyclohexenes into substituted phenol, aniline, and benzene derivatives, respectively. In this Perspective, we present the contributions of our research group to the discovery and development of palladium-based catalysts for aerobic oxidative dehydrogenation methods, including general methods for conversion of cyclohexanones and cyclohexenones into substituted phenols and a complementary method for partial dehydrogenation cyclohexanones to cyclohexenones. The mechanistic basis for chemoselective conversion of cyclohexanones to phenols or enones is presented. These results are presented within the context of recent methods developed by others for the synthesis of aryl ethers, anilines and other substituted arenes. Overall, Pd-catalyzed dehydrogenation methods provide a compelling strategy for selective synthesis of aromatic and related unsaturated molecules.

Abstract
The two title compounds are analogs of 1-indanone that are substituted at the 6-position with chlorine and bromine. Although very similar in mol-ecular structure, the crystal structures are not isomorphous and reveal that 6-chloro-indan-1-one, C9H7ClO (I), and 6-bromo-indan-1-one, C9H7BrO (II), exhibit unique inter-molecular packing motifs. The mol-ecules of the chloro analog (I) pack with a herringbone packing motif of C-H⋯O inter-actions, whereas the bromo derivative (II) packs with offset face-to-face π-stacking, C-H⋯O, C-H⋯Br and Br⋯O inter-actions. Compound (II) was refined as a two-component non-merohedral twin, BASF 0.0762 (5).
