Abstract
Background:
Grindstone technique has been widely used as an efficient, consistent,
more environmentally benign, solvent-free protocol for the preparation of many compounds with
higher atom economy.
Methods:
A series of fourteen piperonal chalcone compounds were synthesized by this method and
characterized by physical and spectral data (FT-IR, 1H NMR, Mass and elemental analysis). All
chalcones were evaluated for their cytotoxic action against the cancer cell lines, MCF-7 and HepG2.
One 2-pyridyl-substituted compound 14 with IC50 values 17.4±0.2 towards MCF-7 and
15.4±0.6µmol L-1 towards HepG2 cells.
Results:
The results demonstrated that the cytotoxic activity of 2-pyridyl-substituted compound
shown higher activity as compared with the standard cisplatin towards HepG2 cells.
Conclusion:
Compound 14 showed good antioxidant activities in the DPPH test and H2O2 assay
(IC50 = 17.23± 33/µg/mL and 20.17± 0.33µg/mL) when compared with the standard ascorbic acid
(IC50=µg/mL 18.26 ± 0.22and 21.66± 1.06 µg/mL).

Abstract
Simple enantioselective synthesis of 6,6-disubstituted pentafulvenes bearing chiral pendant hydroxy groups are attained by cascade reactivity using commercially available proline-based organocatalysts. Condensation of cyclopentadiene with the acetyl function of a 1,2-formylacetophenone, followed by cyclization of a resulting fulvene-stabilized carbanion with the formyl group, generates bicyclic chiral alcohols with initial er values up to 94:6. Exceptional enantio-enrichment of the resultant alcohols results upon crystallization-even near racemic samples spontaneously de-racemize. This enables new families of substituted cyclopentadienes that are both enantiomerically and diastereomerically pure to be rapidly attained.

Abstract
The constant increase in cardiovascular disease rate coupled with significant drawbacks of existing therapies emphasise the necessity to improve therapeutic strategies. Natural flavonoids exert innumerable pharmacological effects in humans. Here, we demonstrate the effects of chrysin, a natural flavonoid found largely in honey and passionflower on the modulation of platelet function, haemostasis and thrombosis. Chrysin displayed significant inhibitory effects on isolated platelets, however, its activity was substantially reduced under physiological conditions. In order to increase the efficacy of chrysin, a sulfur derivative (thio-chrysin), and ruthenium-complexes (Ru-chrysin and Ru-thio-chrysin) were synthesised and their effects on the modulation of platelet function were evaluated. Indeed, Ru-thio-chrysin displayed a 4-fold greater inhibition of platelet function and thrombus formation in vitro than chrysin under physiologically relevant conditions such as in platelet-rich plasma and whole blood. Notably, Ru-thio-chrysin exhibited similar efficacy to chrysin in the modulation of haemostasis in mice. Increased bioavailability and cell permeability of Ru-thio-chrysin compared to chrysin were found to be the basis for its enhanced activity. Together, these results demonstrate that Ru-thio-coupled natural compounds such as chrysin may serve as promising templates for the development of novel anti-thrombotic agents.

Abstract
From the carbolithiation of 6-N,N-dimethylamino fulvene (3) and 2,4[bis(N,N-dimethylamino)methyl]-N-methylpyrrolyl lithium (2a), N-(N′,N′-dimethylaminomethyl)benzimidazolyl lithium (2b), or p-(N,N-dimethylamino)methylphenyl lithium (2c), the corresponding lithium cyclopentadienide intermediate (4a–c) was formed. These three lithiated intermediates underwent a transmetallation reaction with TiCl4' resulting in N,N-dimethylamino-functionalised titanocenes 5a–c. When these titanocenes were tested against a pig kidney epithelial cell line (LLC-PK), the IC50 values obtained were of 23, and 52
μM for titanocenes 5a and 5b, respectively. The most cytotoxic titanocene in this paper, 5c with an IC50 value of 13 μM, was found to be approximately two times less cytotoxic than its analogue Titanocene C (IC50=5.5
μM) and almost four times less cytotoxic than cisplatin, which showed an IC50 value of 3.3 μM when tested on the LLC-PK cell line.

Abstract
Six titanocenyls functionalized with steroidal esters have been synthesized and characterized by infrared, (1)H, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Among those steroids, dehydroepiandrosterone, trans-androsterone, and androsterone are androgens and pregnenolone is a progesterone precursor. Clionasterol is a natural steroid compound. These steroid-functionalized titanocenyls were tested by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay for in vitro cytotoxicity for MCF-7 breast cancer and HT-29 colon cancer cells. All complexes exhibited more cytotoxicity than titanocene dichloride. The titanocenyls containing androgen and progesterone derivatives as pendant groups had higher antiproliferative activities than those with cholesterol steroid compounds. Of particular significance is titanocenyl-dehydroepiandrosterone complex, which is 2 orders of magnitude more cytotoxic than titanocene dichloride and also shows much more sensitivity and selectivity for the MCF-7 cell line.

From the carbolithiation of 6-bis-N,N-dimethylamino fulvene (3a) and different ortho-lithiated heterocycles (furan, thiophene and N-methylpyrrole), the corresponding lithium cyclopentadienide intermediate (4a-c) was formed.

The most cytotoxic titanocene in this paper, 5a with an IC(50)-value of 36 microM was found to be approximately six times less cytotoxic than its mono-N,N-dimethylamino substituted analogue Titanocene C (IC(50) = 5.5 microM) and almost ten times less cytotoxic than cisplatin, which showed an IC(50)-value of 3.3 microM, when tested on the LLC-PK cell line.

These three lithiated intermediates underwent a transmetallation reaction with TiCl4 resulting in dimethylamino-functionalised titanocenes 5a-c. When these titanocenes were tested against LLC-PK cells, the IC50 values obtained were of 13, and 63 microM for titanocenes 5b and 5c, respectively. The most cytotoxic titanocene in this paper (5a) with an IC50 value of 6.8 microM is found to be almost as cytotoxic as cis-platin, which showed an IC50 value of 3.3 microM, when tested on the epithelial pig kidney LLC-PK cell line, and titanocene 5c is approximately 400 times better than titanocene dichloride itself.
