Electro-organic synthesis of C-5 sulfenylated amino uracils: Optimization and exploring topoisomerase-I based anti-cancer profile. Bioorg Chem 2023; 138:106660.

Abstract
Cancer is spreading worldwide and is one of the leading causes of death. The use of existing chemotherapeutic agents is frequently limited due to side effects. As a result, it is critical to investigate new agents for cancer treatment. In this context, we developed an electrochemical method for the synthesis of a series of thiol-linked pyrimidine derivatives (3a-3p) and explored their anti-cancer potential. The biological profile of the synthesized compounds was evaluated against breast (MDAMB-231 and MCF-7) and colorectal (HCT-116) cancer cell lines. 3b and 3d emerged to be the most potent agents, with IC50 values ranging between 0.98 to 2.45 µM. Target delineation studies followed by secondary anticancer parameters were evaluated for most potent compounds, 3b and 3d. The analysis revealed compounds possess DNA intercalation potential and selective inhibition towards human topoisomerase (hTopo1). The analysis was further corroborated by DNA binding studies and in silico-based molecular modeling studies that validated the intercalating binding mode between the compounds and the DNA.

Abstract
The aim of this work is to demonstrate the possibility of using propellane in designing a molecule that can absorb in three different wavelength regions and their nonlinear optical (NLO) activity can be fine-tuned by varying the three wings. We considered 22 tailor-made propellane derivatives consisting of phenyl, naphthyl, and biphenyl wings for this purpose. Using the state-of-the-art linear and quadratic response methods within TD-DFT and RI-CC2 theories and a suitable generalized few-state model that quantifies the effect of orientation of different transition moments on NLO properties, we discussed how and why the linear and nonlinear optical activity of propellane vary when the three wings are assembled successively to construct a full-propellane.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the most prevailing disease conditions which occurs due to uncontrolled cell division either due to natural mutation to the genes or due to changes induced by physical, chemical, or biological carcinogens. According to WHO, it is the second leading cause of death worldwide and has reported 10 million deaths in 2020. Hence there arises the need for better chemotherapies and DNA intercalators are one such emerging therapy for cancer. DNA intercalating agents reversibly intercalate with the double-helical structure of DNA by interacting with adjacent base pairs and disrupting the structure of DNA and thereby causing cell death. Here we discuss the different classes of organo-intercalators used in cancer therapy describing their anticancer and intercalation ability by different methods along with their structure-activity relationship and mechanism of action.

Abstract
Abstract:
Propellanes and derivatives have attractive properties due to their unique structure. Therefore, [3.3.3] propellanes, containing tricyclic structures with one of the carbon-carbon bonds common in three rings, were used in natural products, pharmaceutical compounds, and heterocyclic compounds, which were biologically important. The various multi-component reactions were applied in the synthesis of propellanes, which were highlighted throughout this review

RSC Adv 2021; 11:40040-40050.

Abstract
Two new dinuclear copper(ii) complexes, [Cu(ambt)2(cnba)4] (1) and [Cu(ambt)2(clba)4] (2) were synthesized with 2-amino-6-methoxybenzothiazole (ambt) as the main ligand. The structures of the two complexes were characterized by single-crystal XRD. The binding between CT-DNA (calf thymus DNA) and the complexes was evaluated by viscometry, electronic absorption, and fluorescence spectroscopy, and the binding constants were calculated using the Stern-Volmer equation. The complexes were intercalatively bound to CT-DNA, and [Cu(ambt)2(clba)4] having a greater binding constant than [Cu(ambt)2(cnba)4]. The two complexes had better antitumor properties against HepG2 (human hepatocellular carcinoma), A549 (human lung carcinoma), and HeLa (human cervical carcinoma) tumor cell lines than their respective ligands and cisplatin. Furthermore, [Cu(ambt)2(clba)4] had a stronger inhibitory ability on the three types of tumor cells than [Cu(ambt)2(cnba)4], which is congruent with the binding power of the complexes with DNA. Flow cytometry revealed that [Cu(ambt)2(cnba)4] and [Cu(ambt)2(clba)4] could trigger apoptosis or necrosis, arrest the HepG2 cell cycles, and cause G0/G1-phase cells to accumulate.
