Abstract
Triazole demonstrates distinctive physicochemical properties, characterized by weak basicity, various dipole moments, and significant dual hydrogen bond acceptor and donor capabilities. These features are poised to play a pivotal role in drug-target interactions. The inherent polarity of triazole contributes to its lower logP, suggesting the potential improvement in water solubility. The metabolic stability of triazole adds additional value to drug discovery. Moreover, the metal-binding capacity of the nitrogen atom lone pair electrons of triazole has broad applications in the development of metal chelators and antifungal agents. This Perspective aims to underscore the unique physicochemical attributes of triazole and its application. A comparative analysis involving triazole isomers and other heterocycles provides guiding insights for the subsequent design of triazoles, with the hope of offering valuable considerations for designing other heterocycles in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
Herein, a palladium-catalyzed and ligand-controlled protocol for the divergent synthesis of pyrrole[2,3-b]indole and urea derivatives has been described. Pyrrole[2,3-b]indoles ("cyclization on" products) via tandem cyclization of o-alkynylanilines with isocyanides in the absence of a ligand and ureas ("cyclization off" products) via oxidative amination of anilines with isocyanides in the presence of a ligand were obtained both in moderate to good yields with high selectivity. In this chemistry, cyclic and acyclic products were easily accessed with the same starting materials under the regulation of the ligand.

Abstract
2,1,3-Benzothiadiazole is widely used as a privileged scaffold in pharmaceuticals and organic functional materials. Nonetheless, many current methods for the functionalization of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole rely on preactivation, transition metal catalysts/promoters, or an elevated reaction temperature. Herein we disclose a transition-metal-free visible-light-induced photocatalytic method for the direct C-H alkylation of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole using readily accessible carboxylic acid derivatives, i.e., N-hydroxyphthalimide esters (NHPEs), as alkylating reagents under room temperature. This mild and scalable method is highlighted by the late-stage installation of the benzothiadiazole scaffold in drugs and natural products.

Abstract
A new Ag(I) coordination complex, Ag(C11H10N2O)2·NO3 (C11H10N2O = 4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-methylpyrimidine) is successfully synthesized and characterized by infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. This complex features a three-dimensional framework consisting of hydrogen bonds, π–π stacking interactions, coordination interactions, and electrostatic interactions. Moreover, the thermal stability and non-isothermal thermal decomposition reaction kinetics of the complex are well investigated by the methods of Kissinger and Ozawa. Finally, the antitumor ability of the complex is evaluated against human lung cancer cells (NCI-H460), human hepatocellular cancer cells (HepG2), and human breast cancer cells (MCF7). The complex exhibits potent antitumor activities against HepG2 and MCF7 cancer cells.

Abstract
Discovering novel synthetic routes for rigid nitrogen-containing polyheterocycles using sustainable, atom-economical, and efficient (= short) synthetic pathways is of high interest in organic chemistry. Here, we describe an operationally simple and short synthesis of the privileged scaffold dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-dione from readily accessible starting materials. The alkaloid-type polycyclic scaffold with potential bioactivity was achieved by a multicomponent reaction (MCR)-based protocol via a Ugi four-component reaction and Pictet-Spengler sequence under different conditions, yielding a diverse library of products.

Abstract
The 3,9-diazaspiro[5.5]undecane-based compounds 2027 and 018 have previously been reported to be potent competitive γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor (GABAAR) antagonists showing low cellular membrane permeability. Given the emerging peripheral application of GABAAR ligands, we hypothesize 2027 analogs as promising lead structures for peripheral GABAAR inhibition. We herein report a study on the structural determinants of 2027 in order to suggest a potential binding mode as a basis for rational design. The study identified the importance of the spirocyclic benzamide, compensating for the conventional acidic moiety, for GABAAR ligands. The structurally simplified m-methylphenyl analog 1e displayed binding affinity in the high-nanomolar range (Ki = 180 nM) and was superior to 2027 and 018 regarding selectivity for the extrasynaptic α4βδ subtype versus the α1- and α2- containing subtypes. Importantly, 1e was shown to efficiently rescue inhibition of T cell proliferation, providing a platform to explore the immunomodulatory potential for this class of compounds.

Abstract
Acute neurotoxicity of Semen Strychni can result in sudden death in epilepsy. The detoxification method and mechanism of Semen Strychni acute poisoning have not been clarified. This experiment focused on the mechanism of Semen Strychni neurotoxicity and the alleviation effects of isoliquiritigenin. The rats were intraperitoneally injected with Semen Strychni extract (125 mg/kg), followed by oral administration of isoliquiritigenin (50 mg/kg) for 7 days. FJ-B staining was used to evaluate the degree of injury on hippocampus neurons. The concentration of monoamines, amino acids, and choline neurotransmitters, the Dopamine (DA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) metabolic pathway in the hippocampus, cerebellum, striatum, prefrontal cortex, hypothalamus, serum, and plasma were detected by LC-MS/MS. The expression of neurotransmitter metabolic enzymes [catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) and monoamine oxidase (MAO)] and neurotransmitter receptors [glutamate N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptors (NMDARs) and gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor (GABRs)] were, respectively determined using ELISA and qRT-PCR. The results indicated that Semen Strychni induced neuronal degeneration in the hippocampal CA1 region. Meanwhile, Semen Strychni inhibited the mRNA expression of NMDAR1, NMDAR2A, NMDAR2B, GABRa1, GABRb2 and reduced the level of MAO, which disrupted the DA and 5-HT metabolic pathway. However, isoliquiritigenin reversed these effects. In summary, isoliquiritigenin showed alleviation effects on Semen Strychni-induced neurotoxicity, which could be attributed to restoring neurotransmitters metabolic pathway, most likely through the activation of NMDA receptors.

Abstract
Pyrimidines are essential for the cell survival and proliferation of living parasitic organisms, such as Helicobacter pylori, Plasmodium falciparum and Schistosoma mansoni, that are able to impact upon human health. Pyrimidine building blocks, in human cells, are synthesised via both de novo biosynthesis and salvage pathways, the latter of which is an effective way of recycling pre-existing nucleotides. As many parasitic organisms lack pyrimidine salvage pathways for pyrimidine nucleotides, blocking de novo biosynthesis is seen as an effective therapeutic means to selectively target the parasite without effecting the human host. Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), which is involved in the de novo biosynthesis of pyrimidines, is a validated target for anti-infective drug research. Recent advances in the DHODH microorganism field are discussed herein, as is the potential for the development of DHODH-targeted therapeutics.
