Abstract
An efficient metal-free approach for site selective C-N coupling reaction of benzo[d]isoxazole and 2H-chromene derivatives has been designed and developed against AchE. This nitrogen containing organo-base promoted methodology, which is both practical and environmentally friendly, provides an easy and suitable pathway for synthesizing Benzisoxazole-Chromene (BC) possessing poly heteroaryl moieties. The synthesized BC derivatives 4 a-n was docked into the active sites of AChE to obtain more perception into the binding modes of the compounds. Out of them, compound 4 a and 4 l displayed potent activity and high selectivity against the AChE inhibition. Final docking results indicates that compound 4 l showed the lowest binding energy of -11.2260 kcal/mol with AChE. The synthesized BC analogs would be potential candidates for promoting suitable studies in medicinal chemistry research.

MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27175732.

Abstract
Candidates to being inhibitors of the main protease (Mpro) of SARS-CoV-2 were selected from the database of Voronezh State University using molecular modeling. The database contained approximately 19,000 compounds represented by more than 41,000 ligand conformers. These ligands were docked into Mpro using the SOL docking program. For one thousand ligands with best values of the SOL score, the protein–ligand binding enthalpy was calculated by the PM7 quantum-chemical method with the COSMO solvent model. Using the SOL score and the calculated protein–ligand binding enthalpies, eighteen compounds were selected for the experiments. Several of these inhibitors suppressed the replication of the coronavirus in cell culture, and we used the best three among them in the search for chemical analogs. Selection among analogs using the same procedure followed by experiments led to identification of seven inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 replication in cell culture with EC50 values at the micromolar level. The identified inhibitors belong to three chemical classes. The three inhibitors, 4,4-dimethyldithioquinoline derivatives, inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication in Vero E6 cell culture just as effectively as the best published non-covalent inhibitors, and show low cytotoxicity. These results open up a possibility to develop antiviral drugs against the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus.

Abstract
An efficient and convenient synthetic strategy for ruthenium(II)-catalyzed ortho-acylation of N-(2-pyridyl)-anilines using α-oxycarboxylic acids as acyl sources is described. The procedure can smoothly proceed under mild conditions, showing good functional group tolerance. Valuable ortho-acylated aniline products have been obtained with moderate to good yields. Furthermore, the reaction could be easily scaled up to the gram scale.

Abstract
AIMS In the present study, polymer-drug conjugates were synthesized based on azo-bond cleavage drug delivery approach for targeting erlotinib as an anticancer drug specifically to the colon for the proficient treatment of colon cancer. BACKGROUND Colon Cancer (CC) is the third commonly detected tumor worldwide and makes up about 10% of all cases of cancers. Most of the chemotherapeutic drugs available for treating colon cancer are not only toxic to cancerous cells but also to the normal healthy cells. Among the various approaches to get rid of the adverse effects of anticancer agents, prodrugs are one of the most imperative approaches. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study is to chemically modify the erlotinib drug through azo-bond linkage and suitable spacer which will be finally linked to the polymeric backbone to give the desired polymer linked prodrug. The azo reductase enzyme present in the colon is supposed to cleave the azo-bond specifically and augment the drug release at the colon. METHODS The synthesized conjugates were characterized by IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The cleavage of aromatic azo-bond resulted in a potential colon-specific liberation of drug from conjugate studied in rat fecal contents. In vitro release profiles of polyphosphazene-linked conjugates of erlotinib have been studied at pH 1.2, pH 6.8 and pH 7.4. The stability study was designed to exhibit that free drug was released proficiently and unmodified from polyphosphazene-erlotinib conjugates having aromatic azo-bond in artificial colon conditions. RESULTS The synthesized conjugates were demonstrated to be stable in simulated upper gastrointestinal tract conditions. The drug release kinetics shows that all the polymer-drug conjugates of erlotinib follow zero-order release kinetics which indicates that the drug release from the polymeric backbone is independent of its concentration. Kinetic study of conjugates with slope (n) shows the anomalous type of release with an exponent (n) > 0.89 indicating a super case II type of release. CONCLUSION These studies indicate that polyphosphazene linked drug conjugates of erlotinib could be promising candidates for the site-specific treatment of colon cancer with the least detrimental side-effects.

Abstract
AIM To develop novel compounds having potent anticancer and antibacterial activities. BACKGROUND Several studies have proved that benzylidene analogues of clinical 2,4-TZDs, such as troglitazone and ciglitazone, have more potent antiproliferative activity than their parent compounds. Literature studies also revealed that the attachment of more heterocyclic rings, containing nitrogen on 5th position of 2,4-TZD, can enhance the antimicrobial activity. Hence, attachment of various moieties on the benzylidene ring may produce safe and effective compounds in the future. OBJECTIVE The objective of the present study was to synthesize a set of novel benzylidene ring containing 5- and 3-substituted-2,4-thiazolidinedione derivatives and evaluate them for their anticancer and antibacterial activity. METHODS The synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, mass, and elemental studies. The in vitro cytotoxicity studies were performed for human breast cancer (MCF-7) and human lung cancer (A549) cells and HepG2 cell-line and compared to standard drug doxorubicin by MTT assay. Antimicrobial activity of the synthesized 2,4-thiazolidinediones derivatives was carried out using the cup plate method with slight modification. RESULTS The results obtained showed that TZ-5 and TZ-13 exhibited good antiproliferative activity against A549 cancer cell-line, whereas TZ-10 exhibited moderate antiproliferative activity against HepG2 cell-line when compared to standard drug doxorubicin. TZ-5 also exhibited reasonable activity against the MCF-7 cell-line with doxorubicin as standard. TZ-4, TZ-5, TZ-6, TZ-7, and TZ- 16 exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity against Gram positive and moderate activity against Gram negative bacteria with the standard drug ciprofloxacin. CONCLUSION Attachment of heterocyclic rings containing nitrogen as the hetero atom improves the anticancer and antimicrobial potential. Attachment of electronegative elements like halogens can also enhance the antimicrobial activity. Further structure modifications may lead to the development of more potent 2,4-TZD leads that can be evaluated for further advanced studies.

Abstract
Herein, we report the transformation of readily accessed acyl hydrazides into protected 2-aminobenzophenones via a two-step process involving an aryne-based molecular rearrangement followed by a one-pot addition-elimination procedure. The assembly of the scaffold is tolerant of a wide variety of functional groups, and the carbamate group on the product can be facilely removed to afford highly valuable 2-aminobenzophenones. Application of the protocol was demonstrated in the synthesis of neurological medicine phenazepam.

Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed direct addition of arylboronic acids to unprotected 2-aminobenzonitriles has been developed, leading to a wide range of 2-aminobenzophenones with moderate to excellent yields. The transformation has broad scope and high functional group tolerance. Moreover, 2-oxoindoline-7-carbonitrile and indole-7-carbonitrile were applicable to this process for the construction of 7-benzoyl-2-oxoindolines and 7-benzoylindoles, respectively. Among the compounds examined, compound 4e possessed the most potent anticancer activity against H446 and HGC-27 in vitro, with IC50 values of 0.02 μmol L(-1) and 0.09 μmol L(-1), respectively, while compound 4a showed the best potent anticancer activity against SGC-7901 with an IC50 value of 0.01 μmol L(-1). Furthermore, we also performed in silico molecular docking calculations to investigate the interaction mode and binding affinity between the examined compounds and their tubulin target.

Abstract
The first example of the palladium-catalyzed synthesis of o-aminobenzophenones in moderate to excellent yields via a direct addition of sodium arylsulfinates to unprotected 2-aminobenzonitriles was reported. A plausible mechanism for the formation of o-aminobenzophenones involving desulfination and addition reactions was proposed. The utility of this transformation was demonstrated by its compatibility with a wide range of functional groups. Thus, the method represents a convenient and practical strategy for synthesis of o-aminobenzophenones.
