Abstract
The first gram-scale asymmetric total synthesis of (+)- and (-)-codonopiloneolignanin A has been achieved from multisubstituted cinnamaldehyde in four steps with 37% overall yield. The synthetically challenging tricyclic [5, 3, 0, 03,8] decane skeleton was efficiently constructed via a highly enantioselective dimerization of multisubstituted cinnamaldehyde, followed by a sequence of cascade reactions including Prins cyclization, cation mediated cyclization, and deprotection. Furthermore, the scope of NHC-catalyzed/Ti(IV)-mediated synergistic control multisubstituted cinnamaldehyde dimerization was investigated. Significantly, the bioactivity of codonopiloneolignanin A and its enantiomer, particularly scarce in nature, was tested and showed good anticancer activity.

Abstract
As a continuation of our research on potent and efficacious P-gp-dependent multidrug resistance (MDR) reversers, several new N,N-bis(alkanol)amine aryl esters were designed and synthesized, varying the aromatic moieties or the length of the methylenic chain. The new compounds were tested on doxorubicin-resistant erythroleukemia K562 cells (K562/DOX) in the pirarubicin uptake assay, where most of the new compounds were shown to be active. In particular the asymmetrical compounds, characterized by two linkers of different length, generally showed fairly high activities as MDR reversers. Some selected compounds (isomers 15-17) were further studied by evaluating their doxorubicin cytotoxicity enhancement (reversal fold, RF) on the K562/DOX cell line. The results of both pharmacological assays indicate that compounds 16 (GDE6) and 17 (GDE19) could be interesting leads for the development of new P-gp dependent MDR modulators.

Abstract
Caulerpenyne (CYN) is a sesquiterpene from green algae with known inhibitory properties against soybean lipoxygenase. Here we introduce a detailed structure-activity study elucidating the inhibitory effects of CYN and a library of six synthetic CYN analogues on isolated human 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and cellular 5-LO in polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Essential structural elements are identified and a structurally simplified inhibitor is introduced. The modes of 5-LO inhibition by CYN and the synthetic inhibitors cannot be assigned to any of the known categories of lipoxygenase inhibitors. These compounds clearly interfere directly with 5-LO and represent rather small and flexible molecules, with unique structures among 5-LO inhibitors identified thus far.

Abstract
A Hybrid drug which comprises the incorporation of two drug pharmacophores in one single molecule are basically designed to interact with multiple targets or to amplify its effect through action on another bio target as one single molecule or to counterbalance the known side effects associated with the other hybrid part(.) The present review article offers a detailed account of the design strategies employed for the synthesis of anticancer agents via molecular hybridization techniques. Over the years, the researchers have employed this technique to discover some promising chemical architectures displaying significant anticancer profiles. Molecular hybridization as a tool has been particularly utilized for targeting tubulin protein as exemplified through the number of research papers. The microtubule inhibitors such as taxol, colchicine, chalcones, combretasatin, phenstatins and vinca alkaloids have been utilized as one of the functionality of the hybrids and promising results have been obtained in most of the cases with some of the tubulin based hybrids exhibiting anticancer activity at nanomolar level. Linkage with steroids as biological carrier vector for anticancer drugs and the inclusion of pyrrolo [2,1-c] [1,4]benzodiazepines (PBDs), a family of DNA interactive antitumor antibiotics derived from Streptomyces species in hybrid structure based drug design has also emerged as a potential strategy. Various heteroaryl based hybrids in particular isatin and coumarins have also been designed and reported to posses' remarkable inhibitory potential. Apart from presenting the design strategies, the article also highlights the structure activity relationship along with mechanistic insights revealed during the biological evaluation of the hybrids.
