Abstract
A transition-metal-free formal (4 + 2) cycloaddition for the direct assembly of acridone derivatives has been developed from simple and easily accessible o-aminobenzamides and 2-(trimethylsilyl)aryl triflates. The base played an important role in the selective controlled synthesis of N-H and N-aryl acridones. A preliminary study on the fluorescence properties of N-aryl acridones demonstrated that they could be used as fluorescent materials with a broad emission range.

Abstract
Pathogenic A. castellanii and N. fowleri are opportunistic free-living amoebae. Acanthamoeba spp. are the causative agents of granulomatous amebic encephalitis (GAE) and amebic keratitis (AK), whereas Naegleria fowleri causes a very rare but severe brain infection called primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM). Acridinone is an important heterocyclic scaffold and both synthetic and naturally occurring derivatives have shown various valuable biological properties. In the present study, ten synthetic Acridinone derivatives (I-X) were synthesized and assessed against both amoebae for anti-amoebic and cysticidal activities in vitro. In addition, excystation, encystation, cytotoxicity, host cell pathogenicity was also performed in-vitro. Furthermore, molecular docking studies of these compounds with three cathepsin B paralogous enzymes of N. fowleri were performed in order to predict the possible docking mode with pathogen. Compound VII showed potent anti-amoebic activity against A. castellanii with IC50 53.46 µg/mL, while compound IX showed strong activity against N. fowleri in vitro with IC50 72.41 µg/mL. Compounds II and VII showed a significant inhibition of phenotypic alteration of A. castellanii, while compound VIII significantly inhibited N. fowleri cysts. Cytotoxicity assessment showed that these compounds caused minimum damage to human keratinocyte cells (HaCaT cells) at 100 µg/mL, while also effectively reduced the cytopathogenicity of Acanthamoeba to HaCaT cells. Moreover, Cathepsin B protease was investigated in-silico as a new molecular therapeutic target for these compounds. All compounds showed potential interactions with the catalytic residues. These results showed that acridine-9(10H)-one derivatives, in particular compounds II, VII, VIII and IX hold promise in the development of therapeutic agents against these free-living amoebae.

Abstract
An efficient and practical approach for the synthesis of medicinally important acridones was developed from anthranils and commercially available arylboronic acids by a tandem copper(I)-catalyzed electrophilic amination/Ag(I)-mediated oxidative annulation strategy. This new and straightforward protocol displayed a broad substrate scope (25 examples) and high functional group tolerance. What's more, a possible mechanistic proposal was also presented.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acridine derivatives have been extensively explored as potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of a number of diseases, such as cancer, Alzheimer's, and bacterial and protozoan infections. Their mode of action is mainly attributed to DNA intercalation and the subsequent effects on the biological processes linked to DNA and its related enzymes. AREA COVERED This review covers the relevant efforts in developing acridine derivatives with enhanced therapeutic potency and selectivity and as fluorescent materials, with particular focus on the newly patented acridine derivatives in 2009 - 2013, acridine drugs in clinical trials and preclinical studies, and other new derivatives that emerged in 2009 - 2013. EXPERT OPINION Thousands of acridines with therapeutic and biological activities or with photochemical properties have been developed. In addition, to modify the position and the nature of the substituent on the acridine core, more attention may be paid to the development of azaacridine or other heteroatom-substituted acridine derivatives and their synthesis methods to broaden the application of acridine derivatives. In cancer chemotherapy, the mode of action of acridine derivatives needs to be further studied. Efficient methods for identification and optimization of acridine derivatives to localize at the sites of disease need to be further developed. Moreover, acridine drugs may be combined with such bioactive agents as DNA repair proteins inhibitors to overcome tumor resistance and improve outcomes.

Abstract
A series of 6-methoxy-3,3,14-trimethyl-3,14-dihydro-7H-benzo[b]chromeno[6,5-g][1,8]naphthyridin-7-one (4), 13-aza derivatives of benzo[b]acronycine, the isomeric 5-methoxy-2,2,13-trimethyl-2,13-dihydro-6H-benzo[b]chromeno[7,6-g][1,8]naphthyridin-6-one (5), and related cis-diols mono- and diesters were designed and synthesized. Their in vitro and in vivo biological activities were evaluated. As previously observed in the acronycine series, esters were the most potent derivatives exhibiting submicromolar activities; among them monoesters are particularly active. Racemic diacetate 21 showed a strong activity against KB-3-1 cell lines and was selected for in vivo evaluation and proved to be active, inhibiting tumor growth by more than 80%. After separation of the two enantiomers, compounds 21a and 21b were also evaluated against C38 colon adenocarcinoma; their activities were found to be significantly different.

Abstract
A series of 10-substituted hydroxy-10H-acridin-9-ones were synthesized and studied as potential antipsoriatic agents. The antiproliferative activity of the novel derivatives, which can be considered as aza-analogues of the antipsoriatic drug anthralin, was determined using the human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT. Structure-activity relationships with respect to the nature of the N-substituent at the acridone scaffold were delineated. Release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was used to exclude non-specific cytotoxic effects. As compared to anthralin, N-substitution of the acridone scaffold in the target compounds provided agents devoid of radical producing properties, which was documented by their ineffectiveness to interact with the free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl. This was in excellent agreement with the data obtained from the LDH assay in which the novel compounds did not induce membrane damage. Benzyl substitution at the 10-position yielded keratinocyte growth inhibitory activity in the low micromolar range. The most potent inhibitor of keratinocyte hyperproliferation was compound 8a having an N-methyl group and a 1,3-dihydroxy arrangement at the acridone scaffold, with an IC(50) value comparable to that of anthralin.
