Abstract
In an effort to develop new compounds for managing drug-induced liver injury, we prepared 23 novel hybrids based on 3-acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid (AKBA) using various biocompatible linkers. A bioguided approach was employed to identify the most promising hybrid. Eight compounds exhibited superior anti-inflammatory activity compared to the parent compound. Two of these hybrids (5b and 18) were able to reduce gene expression of TNF-α in LPS-induced inflammation in RAW 264.7 cells, similar to dexamethasone. Subsequently, the hepatoprotective potential of these hybrids was evaluated against acetaminophen (APAP) toxicity in HepG2 cells at doses of 1 and 10 μM. Both hybrids effectively restored cytokine levels, which had been elevated by APAP, to normal levels. Furthermore, they normalized depleted superoxide dismutase and reduced glutathione levels while significantly reducing malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Network pharmacology analysis suggested that AKBA-based hybrids exert their action by regulating PI3K and EGFR pathways, activating anti-inflammatory mechanisms, and initiating tissue repair and regeneration. Molecular docking studies provided insights into the interaction of the hybrids with PI3K. Additionally, the hybrids demonstrated good stability at different pH levels, following first-order kinetics, with relatively long half-lives, suggesting potential for absorption into circulation without significant degradation.

RSC Adv 2023; 13:25616-25634.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the conjugation of theophylline with different compounds of natural origin hoping to construct new hybrids with dual activity against cholinergic and inflammatory pathways as potential agents for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Out of 28 tested hybrids, two hybrids, acefylline-eugenol 6d and acefylline-isatin 19, were able to inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) at low micromolar concentration displaying IC50 values of 1.8 and 3.3 μM, respectively, when compared to the galantamine standard AChE inhibitor. Moreover, the prepared hybrids exhibited a significant anti-inflammatory effect against lipopolysaccharide induced inflammation in RAW 264.7 and reduced nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in a dose dependent manner. These hybrids demonstrated significant reductions in nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in RAW 264.7 cells induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The findings of this study were further explained in light of network pharmacology analysis which suggested that AChE and nitric oxide synthase were the main targets of the most active compounds. Molecular docking studies revealed their ability to bind to the heme binding site of nitric oxide synthase 3 (NOS-3) and effectively occupy the active site of AChE, interacting with both the peripheral aromatic subsite and catalytic triad. Finally, the compounds demonstrated stability in simulated gastric and intestinal environments, suggesting potential absorption into the bloodstream without significant hydrolysis. These findings highlight the possible therapeutic potential of acefylline-eugenol 6d and acefylline-isatin 19 hybrids in targeting multiple pathological mechanisms involved in AD, offering promising avenues for further development as potential treatments for this devastating disease.

Abstract
The threefold cross-coupling of triarylbismuth reagents with 4-chloro-3-formylcoumarins furnished the corresponding 4-aryl-3-formylcoumarins in a chemoselective manner with high yields under Pd-catalyzed conditions. This method was successfully applied to electronically different triarylbismuth reagents and 4-chloro-3-formylcoumarins preserving the 3-formyl group in the coumarin scaffold.

Abstract
Among the major class of heterocycles, the N-heterocycles, such as pyrazoles,
are scaffolds of vast medicinal values. Various drugs and other biologically active molecules
are known to contain these N-heterocycles as core motifs. Specifically, arylpyrazoles
have exhibited a diverse range of biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anticancerous,
antimicrobial and various others. For instance, arylpyrazoles are present as
core moieties in various insecticides, fungicides and drugs such as Celebrex and Trocoxil.
The present review will be highlighting the significant therapeutic importance of pyrazole
derivatives developed in the last few years.

Abstract
4-Arylcoumarins (4-aryl-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one), also known as neoflavones, comprise a minor subclass of naturally occurring flavonoids. Because of their broad-spectrum biological activities, arylcoumarins have been attracting the attention of the organic and medicinal chemistry communities, and are considered as an important privileged scaffold. Since the development of Pechmann condensation, a classical acid-catalyzed condensation between phenol and β-keto-carboxylic acid, several versatile and efficient synthetic approaches for 4-arylcoumarins have been reported. This review summarizes recent advances in the synthesis of the 4-arylcoumarin scaffold by classifying them based on the final bond-formation type. In particular, synthetic methods executed under mild and highly efficient conditions, such as solvent-free reactions and transition metal catalysis, are highlighted.
