Abstract
The phenyl(piperidin-4-yl)methanone fragment (here referred to as the benzoylpiperidine fragment) is a privileged structure in the development of new drugs considering its presence in many bioactive small molecules with both therapeutic (such as anti-cancer, anti-psychotic, anti-thrombotic, anti-arrhythmic, anti-tubercular, anti-parasitic, anti-diabetic, and neuroprotective agents) and diagnostic properties. The benzoylpiperidine fragment is metabolically stable, and it is also considered a potential bioisostere of the piperazine ring, thus making it a feasible and reliable chemical frame to be exploited in drug design. Herein, we discuss the main therapeutic and diagnostic agents presenting the benzoylpiperidine motif in their structure, covering articles reported in the literature since 2000. A specific section is focused on the synthetic strategies adopted to obtain this versatile chemical portion.

Abstract
Multi-target drugs can better address the cascade of events involved in oxidative stress and the reduction in cholinergic transmission that occur in Alzheimer’s disease than cholinesterase inhibitors alone. We synthesised a series of 3-arylbenzofuranone derivatives and evaluated their antioxidant activity, cholinesterase inhibitory activity, and monoamine oxidase inhibitory activity. 3-Arylbenzofuranone compounds exhibit good antioxidant activity as well as selective acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity. The IC50 value of anti-acetylcholinesterase inhibition of Compound 20 (0.089 ± 0.01 μM) is similar to the positive drug donepezil (0.059 ± 0.003 μM). According to the experimental results, Compounds 7, 13 show a certain effect in the in vitro evaluation performed and have the potential as drug candidates for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

Abstract
A common problem encountered in enantioselective organocatalysis is the aggregation of the catalyst, which can result in a relevant decrease of the efficiency and selectivity of the process. In the asymmetric synthesis of chiral benzofuranones, recently reported by us, we noted a remarkable increase of the reaction yield upon the addition of one of the reagents in a portionwise manner rather than in a single addition. We investigated this phenomenon by several experimental techniques such as 1D and 2D NMR experiments, UV-Vis spectroscopy, circular dichroism and dynamic light scattering. In addition, we studied the kinetic profile of this reaction using a simple numerical model and carried out in silico investigations. All these different approaches point to the conclusion that in the reaction medium a supramolecular polymerization/aggregation phenomenon, based on weak interactions, occurs and such a process is promoted by a quinone, which is one of the reagents of the benzofuranone synthesis. The portionwise mode of addition is a known strategy which can improve the performance of many synthetic procedures and this strategy is commonly adopted on account of empirical experience. However, our results provide an explanation, based on a chemical kinetic model, of the reason why the portionwise addition affects in such a dramatic way the yield of the benzofuranone synthesis catalyzed by Cinchona alkaloids.

Abstract
The benzisoxazole analogs represent one of the privileged structures in medicinal chemistry and there has been an increasing number of studies on benzisoxazole-containing compounds. The unique benzisoxazole scaffold also exhibits an impressive potential as antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-glycation agents and so on. This review examines the state of the art in medicinal chemistry as it relates to the comprehensive and general summary of the different benzisoxazole analogs, their use as starting building blocks of multifarious architectures on scales sufficient to drive human drug trials. The number of reports describing benzisoxazole-containing highly active compounds leads to the expectation that this scaffold will further emerge as a potential candidate in the field of drug discovery.

Abstract
Risperidone is an atypical antipsychotic used in the treatment of schizophrenia and of symptoms of irritability associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Its main action mechanism is the blockade of D2-like receptors acting over positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia with small risk of extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) at doses corresponding to low/moderate D2 occupancy. Such a decrease in the side effect incidence can be associated with its fast unbinding from D2 receptors in the nigrostriatal region allowing the recovery of dopamine signaling pathways. We performed docking essays using risperidone and the D3 receptor crystallographic data and results suggested two possible distinct orientations for risperidone at the binding pocket. Orientation 1 is more close to the opening of the binding site and has the 6-fluoro-1,2 benzoxazole fragment toward the bottom of the D3 receptor cleft, while orientation 2 is deeper inside the binding pocket with the same fragment toward to the receptor surface. In order to unveil the implications of these two binding orientations, classical molecular dynamics and quantum biochemistry computations within the density functional theory formalism and the molecular fractionation with conjugate caps framework were performed. Quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics suggests that orientation 2 (considering the contribution of Glu90) is slightly more energetically stable than orientation 1 with the main contribution coming from residue Asp110. The residue Glu90, positioned at the opening of the binding site, is closer to orientation 1 than 2, suggesting that it may have a key role in stability through attractive interaction with risperidone. Therefore, although orientations 1 and 2 are both likely to occur, we suggest that the occurrence of the first may contribute to the reduction of side effects in patients taking risperidone due to the reduction of dopamine receptor occupancy in the nigrostriatal region through a mechanism of fast dissociation. The atypical effect may be obtained simply by either delaying D3R full blockage by spatial hindrance of orientation 1 at the binding site or through an effective blockade followed by orientation 1 fast dissociation. While the molecular interpretation suggested in this work shed some light on the potential molecular mechanisms accounting for the reduced extrapyramidal symptoms observed during risperidone treatment, further studies are necessary in order to evaluate the implications of both orientations during the receptor activation/inhibition. Altogether these data highlight important hot spots in the dopamine receptor binding site bringing relevant information for the development of novel/derivative agents with atypical profile.

Abstract
In order to target behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), we used molecular modeling-assisted design to obtain novel multifunctional arylsulfonamide derivatives that potently antagonize 5-HT(6/7/2A) and D2 receptors, without interacting with M1 receptors and hERG channels. In vitro studies confirmed their antagonism of 5-HT(7/2A) and D2 receptors and weak interactions with key antitargets (M1R and hERG) associated with side effects. Marked 5-HT6 receptor affinities were also observed, notably for 6-fluoro-3-(piperidin-4-yl)-1,2-benzoxazole derivatives connected by a 3-4 unit alkyl linker with mono- or bicyclic, lipophilic arylsulfonamide moieties. N-[4-[4-(6-Fluoro-1,2-benzoxazol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl]butyl]benzothiophene-2-sulfonamide (72) was characterized in vitro on 14 targets and antitargets. It displayed dual blockade of 5-HT6 and D2 receptors and negligible interactions at hERG and M1 receptors. Unlike reference antipsychotics, 72 displayed marked antipsychotic and antidepressant activity in rats after oral administration, in the absence of cognitive or motor impairment. This profile is particularly attractive when targeting a fragile, elderly BPSD patient population.

Abstract
The binding of reactive polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) metabolites, formed enzymatically, to DNA is a crucial step in PAH carcinogenesis in vivo. We investigated the noncovalent binding interactions between 11 PAH metabolites and human p53 complementary DNA (p53 cDNA) using the fluorescence displacement method and molecular docking analysis. All of the examined metabolites predominantly interacted with p53 cDNA by intercalation instead of groove binding. The dissociation constants ranged from 0.02 to 12.34μM. Of the metabolites tested, 1-hydroxypyrene and 3-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene showed the strongest binding affinities to DNA, while 2-naphthol was the weakest DNA intercalator. The intercalation of the metabolites was stabilized by stacking the PAH phenyl rings with the DNA base pairs and the formation of hydrogen bonds between the oxide or hydroxyl groups on the metabolites, and DNA bases or backbones. The binding of the metabolites to DNA showed some sequence selectivity. The binding affinities and hydrogen bonds for 3-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene, benzo[a]pyrene-4,5-dihydroepoxide (BPE) and benzo[a]pyrene-r-7,t-8-dihydrodiol-t-9,10-epoxide (BPDE) differed. It seems that the functional groups on the periphery of the PAH aromatic ring play crucial roles in regulating its binding affinity with DNA. Although it was difficult to determine the correlation between DNA noncovalent binding affinity and carcinogenicity for some of the PAH metabolites, the present study improved our understanding of the formation of PAH metabolite-DNA adducts.

Abstract
Analogs of nantenine were docked into a modeled structure of the human 5-HT(2A) receptor using ICM Pro, GLIDE, and GOLD docking methods. The resultant docking scores were used to correlate with observed in vitro apparent affinity (K(e)) data. The GOLD docking algorithm when used with a homology model of 5-HT(2A), based on a bovine rhodopsin template and built by the program MODELLER, gives results which are most in agreement with the in vitro results. Further analysis of the docking poses among members of a C1 alkyl series of nantenine analogs, indicate that they bind to the receptor in a similar orientation, but differently than nantenine. Besides an important interaction between the protonated nitrogen of the C1 alkyl analogs and residue Asp155, we identified Ser242, Phe234, and Gly238 as key residues responsible for the affinity of these compounds for the 5-HT(2A) receptor. Specifically, the ability of some of these analogs to establish a H-bond with Ser242 and hydrophobic interactions with Phe234 and Gly238 appears to explain their enhanced affinity as compared to nantenine.

Abstract
Successful development of 5-HT(2C) agonists requires selectivity versus the highly homologous 5-HT(2A) receptor, because agonism at this receptor can result in significant adverse events. (R)-9-Ethyl-1,3,4,10b-tetrahydro-7-trifluoromethylpyrazino[2,1-a]isoindol-6(2H)-one (compound 1) is a potent 5-HT(2C) agonist exhibiting selectivity over the human 5-HT(2A) receptor. Evaluation of the compound at the rat 5-HT(2A) receptor, however, revealed potent binding and agonist functional activity. The physiological consequence of this higher potency was the observation of a significant increase in blood pressure in conscious telemeterized rats that could be prevented by ketanserin. Docking of compound 1 in a homology model of the 5-HT(2A) receptor indicated a possible binding mode in which the ethyl group at the 9-position of the molecule was oriented toward position 5.46 of the 5-HT(2A) receptor. Within the human 5-HT(2A) receptor, position 5.46 is Ser242; however, in the rat 5-HT(2A) receptor, it is Ala242, suggesting that the potent functional activity in this species resulted from the absence of the steric bulk provided by the -OH moiety of the Ser in the human isoform. We confirmed this hypothesis using site-directed mutagenesis through the mutation of both the human receptor Ser242 to Ala and the rat receptor Ala242 to Ser, followed by radioligand binding and second messenger studies. In addition, we attempted to define the space allowed by the alanine by evaluating compounds with larger substitutions at the 9-position. The data indicate that position 5.46 contributed to the species difference in 5-HT(2A) receptor potency observed for a pyrazinoisoindolone compound, resulting in the observation of a significant cardiovascular safety signal.
