Abstract
Xeno nucleic acids (XNA) are an increasingly important class of hypermodified nucleic acids with great potential in bioorganic chemistry and synthetic biology. Glycol nucleic acid (GNA) is constructed from a three-carbon 1,2-propanediol (propylene glycol) backbone attached to a nucleobase entity, representing the simplest known XNA. This review is intended to present GNA nucleosides from a synthetic chemistry perspective-a perspective that serves as a starting point for biological studies. Therefore this account focuses on synthetic methods for GNA nucleoside synthesis, as well as their postsynthetic chemical transformations. The properties and biological activity of GNA constituents are also highlighted. A literature survey shows four major approaches toward GNA nucleoside scaffold synthesis. These approaches pertain to glycidol ring-opening, Mitsunobu, SN2, and dihydroxylation reactions. The general arsenal of reactions used in GNA chemistry is versatile and encompasses the Sonogashira reaction, Michael addition, silyl-Hilbert-Johnson reaction, halogenation, alkylation, cyclization, Rh-catalyzed N-allylation, Sharpless catalytic dihydroxylation, and Yb(OTf)3-catalyzed etherification. Additionally, various phosphorylation reactions have enabled the synthesis of diverse types of GNA nucleotides, dinucleoside phosphates, phosphordiamidites, and oligos. Furthermore, recent advances in GNA chemistry have resulted in the synthesis of previously unknown redox-active (ferrocenyl) and luminescent (pyrenyl and phenanthrenyl) GNA nucleosides, which are also covered in this review.

Abstract
The global spread of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has called for an urgent need for dedicated antiviral therapeutics. Metal complexes are commonly underrepresented in compound libraries that are used for screening in drug discovery campaigns, however, there is growing evidence for their role in medicinal chemistry. Based on previous results, we have selected more than 100 structurally diverse metal complexes for profiling as inhibitors of two relevant SARS-CoV-2 replication mechanisms, namely the interaction of the spike (S) protein with the ACE2 receptor and the papain-like protease PLpro . In addition to many well-established types of mononuclear experimental metallodrugs, the pool of compounds tested was extended to approved metal-based therapeutics such as silver sulfadiazine and thiomersal, as well as polyoxometalates (POMs). Among the mononuclear metal complexes, only a small number of active inhibitors of the S/ACE2 interaction was identified, with titanocene dichloride as the only strong inhibitor. However, among the gold and silver containing complexes many turned out to be very potent inhibitors of PLpro activity. Highly promising activity against both targets was noted for many POMs. Selected complexes were evaluated in antiviral SARS-CoV-2 assays confirming activity for gold complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) or dithiocarbamato ligands, a silver NHC complex, titanocene dichloride as well as a POM compound. These studies might provide starting points for the design of metal-based SARS-CoV-2 antiviral agents.

Abstract
Resistance to chemotherapy is a current clinical problem, especially in the treatment of microbial infections and cancer. One strategy to overcome this is to make new derivatives of existing drugs by conjugation to organometallic fragments, either by an appropriate linker, or by direct coordination of the drug to a metal. We illustrate this with examples of conjugated organometallic metallocene sandwich and half-sandwich complexes, RuII and OsII arene, and RhIII and IrIII cyclopentadienyl half-sandwich complexes. Ferrocene conjugates are particularly promising. The ferrocene-chloroquine conjugate ferroquine is in clinical trials for malaria treatment, and a ferrocene-tamoxifen derivative (a ferrocifen) seems likely to enter anticancer trails soon. Several other examples illustrate that organometallic conjugation can restore the activity of drugs to which resistance has developed.

Abstract
Glycol nucleic acids (GNA) are synthetic genetic-like polymers with an acyclic three-carbon propylene glycol phosphodiester backbone. Here, synthesis, luminescence properties, circular dichroism (CD) spectra, and confocal microscopy speciation studies of (R,S) and (S,R) pyrenyl-GNA (pyr-GNA) nucleosides are reported in HeLa cells. Enantiomerically pure nucleosides were obtained by a Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation reaction followed by semi-preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation using Amylose-2 as the chiral stationary phase. The enantiomeric relationship between stereoisomers was confirmed by CD spectra, and the absolute configurations were assigned based on experimental and theoretical CD spectra comparisons. The pyr-GNA nucleosides were not cytotoxic against human cervical (HeLa) cancer cells and thus were utilized as luminescent probes in the imaging of these cells with confocal microscopy. Cellular staining patterns were identical for both enantiomers in HeLa cells. Compounds showed no photocytotoxic effect and were localized in the lipid membranes of the mitochondria, in cellular vesicles and in other lipid cellular compartments. The overall distribution of the pyrene and pyrenyl-GNA nucleosides inside the living HeLa cells differed, since the former compound gives a more granular staining pattern and the latter a more diffuse one.

Abstract
In the reaction of purines with ferrocenoyl chloride in dimethylformamide (DMF), a regioselective acylation occurred. The two products have been isolated and, according to detailed NMR analysis, identified as N7- and N9-ferrocenoylated isomers. In a more polar solvent, for example, in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), the two isomers interconvert to each other. The N7/N9 isomerization was followed by 1H NMR spectroscopy, until dynamic equilibrium was reached. Both kinetics and thermodynamics of the transacylation process are governed by a C6-substituent on the purine ring (R = NH2, Me, NHBz, OBz). The observed rate constant for the N7/N9-isomerization in the adenine system (R = NH2) is kobs = 0.3668 h-1, whereas the corresponding process in the C6-benzyloxypurine is 56 times slower. By use of density functional theory calculations and molecular dynamics simulations, several reaction pathways were considered and explored. Only the reaction mechanism involving DMSO as a nucleophilic reactant is in harmony with the experimental kinetic data. The calculated barrier (ΔG⧧ = 107.9 kJ/mol; at the M06L/6-311+G(d,p)/SDD level of theory) for this SN2-like reaction in the adenine system agrees well with the experimental value of 102.7 kJ/mol. No isomerization was detected in other organic solvents, for example, acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, or acetone, which indicated the exceptional nucleophilicity of DMSO. Our results raise a warning when treating or dissolving acylated purines in DMSO as they are prone to isomerization. We observed that the N7/N9-group transfer was specific not only for the organometallic moiety only, but for other acyl groups in purines as well. The relevance of this isomerization may be expected for a series of nucleobases and heterocyclic systems in general.

Abstract
Abstract
Ferrocene and its derivatives constitute versatile and interesting scaffolds for the global chemical enterprise due to its multiple applications that range from biomedical to materials science. Ferrocenyl derivatives are the leading compounds in our research for the syntheses and characterization as well as their potential biological applications. Among them, our recent focus has been in ferrocenyl chalcones as a framework for further derivatization. The proposed modifications consist on the incorporation of heterocyclic moieties into the ferrocenyl chalcone core. This can be afforded either by introducing a heterocyclic aromatic moiety as a substituent or functionalizing the α-β unsaturated system. Another modification explored is the formation of ammonium or pyridinium salts to increase water solubility. Studied ferrocenyl chalcones exhibit remarkable stability, physical, and electrochemical properties. These factors have led the approaches for them to be precursors of biologically active compounds (cancer, bacteria, malaria, and neurobiological diseases). Moreover, other potential applications include molecular materials, redox-sensors, and polymers. Our goal in this mini review is to highlight the chemistry of ferrocene derivatives with particular prominence to those ferrocenyl chalcones studied in our laboratory and their applications. Moreover, we are providing a background on ferrocene, chalcones, and ferrocenyl chalcones, emphasizing the methodologies with preeminent yields.

Abstract
Organometallic Ru(II)-cymene complexes linked to ferrocene (Fc) via nitrogen heterocycles have been synthesized and studied as cytotoxic agents. These compounds are analogues of Ru(II)-arene piano-stool anticancer complexes such as RAPTA-C. The Ru center was coordinated by pyridine, imidazole, and piperidine with 0-, 1-, or 2-carbon bridges to Fc to give six bimetallic, dinuclear compounds, and the properties of these complexes were compared with their non-Fc-functionalized parent compounds. Crystal structures for five of the compounds, their Ru-cymene parent compounds, and an unusual trinuclear compound were determined. Cyclic voltammetry was used to determine the formal MIII/II potentials of each metal center of the Ru-cymene-Fc complexes, with distinct one-electron waves observed in each case. The Fc-functionalized complexes were found to exhibit good cytotoxicity against HT29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells, whereas the parent compounds were inactive. Similarly, antibacterial activity from the Ru-cymene-Fc compounds was observed against Bacillus subtilis, but not from the unfunctionalized complexes. In both cases, the IC50 values correlated quantitatively with the Fc+/0 reduction potentials. This is consistent with more facile oxidation to give ferrocenium, and subsequent generation of toxic reactive oxygen species, leading to greater cytotoxicity. The antioxidant properties of the complexes were quantified by a 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay. EC50 values indicate that linking of the Ru and Fc centers promotes antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Among the most intensively studied classes of small molecules (molecular weight < 650) in biomedical research are small molecules that non-covalently bind to DNA/RNA, and another intensively studied class is nucleobase derivatives. Both classes have been intensively elaborated in many books and reviews. However, conjugates consisting of DNA/RNA binder covalently linked to nucleobase are much less studied and have not been reviewed in the last two decades. Therefore, this review summarized reports on the design of classical DNA/RNA binder - nucleobase conjugates, as well as data about their interactions with various DNA or RNA targets, and even in some cases protein targets are involved. According to these data, the most important structural aspects of selective or even specific recognition between small molecule and target are proposed, and where possible related biochemical and biomedical aspects were discussed. The general conclusion is that this, rather new class of molecules showed an amazing set of recognition tools for numerous DNA or RNA targets in the last two decades, as well as few intriguing in vitro and in vivo selectivities. Several lead research lines show promising advancements toward either novel, highly selective markers or bioactive, potentially druggable molecules.

Abstract
The synthesis of four cymantrene-5-fluorouracil derivatives (1-4) and two cymantrene-adenine derivatives (5 and 6) is reported. All of the compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods and the crystal structure of two derivatives (1 and 6), together with the previously described cymantrene-adenine compound C was determined by X-ray crystallography. While the compounds 1 and 6 crystallized in the triclinic P-1 space group, compound C crystallized in the monoclinic P2₁/m space group. The newly synthesized compounds 1-6 were tested together with the two previously described cymantrene derivatives B and C for their in vitro antiproliferative activity against seven cancer cell lines (MCF-7, MCF-7/DX, MDA-MB-231, SKOV-3, A549, HepG2m and U-87-MG), five bacterial strains Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin-sensitive, methicillin-resistant and vancomycin-intermediate strains), Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Escherichia coli, including clinical isolates of S. aureus and S. epidermidis, as well as against the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei. The most cytotoxic compounds were derivatives 2 and C for A549 and SKOV-3 cancer cell lines, respectively, with 50% growth inhibition (IC50) values of about 7 µM. The anticancer activity of the cymantrene compounds was determined to be due to their ability to induce oxidative stress and to trigger apoptosis and autophagy in cancer cells. Three derivatives (1, 4 and 5) displayed promising antitrypanosomal activity, with GI50 values in the low micromolar range (3-4 µM). The introduction of the 5-fluorouracil moiety in 1 enhanced the trypanocidal activity when compared to the activity previously reported for the corresponding uracil derivative. The antibacterial activity of cymantrene compounds 1 and C was within the range of 8-64 µg/mL and seemed to be the result of induced cell shrinking.

Abstract
Fluorescent pyrene–linker–nucleobase (nucleobase = thymine, adenine) conjugates with carbonyl and hydroxy functionalities in the linker were synthesized and characterized. X-ray single-crystal structure analysis performed for the pyrene–C(O)CH2CH2–thymine (2) conjugate reveals dimers of molecules 2 stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the thymine moieties. The photochemical characterization showed structure-dependent fluorescence properties of the investigated compounds. The conjugates bearing a carbonyl function represent weak emitters as compared to compounds with a hydroxy function in the linker. The self-assembly properties of pyrene nucleobases were investigated in respect to their binding to single and double strand oligonucleotides in water and in buffer solution. In respect to the complementary oligothymidine T10 template in water, compounds 3 and 5 both show a self-assembling behavior according to canonical base–base pairing. However, in buffer solution, derivative 5 was much more effective than 3 in binding to the T10 template. Furthermore the adenine derivative 5 binds to the double-stranded (dA)10–T10 template with a self-assembly ratio of 112%. Such a high value of a self-assembly ratio can be rationalized by a triple-helix-like binding, intercalation, or a mixture of both. Remarkably, compound 5 also shows dual staining pattern in living HeLa cells. Confocal microscopy confirmed that 5 predominantly stains mitochondria but it also accumulates in the nucleoli of the cells.

Abstract
A series of six novel metallocenyl-7-ADCA (metallocenyl = ferrocenyl or ruthenocenyl; 7-ADCA = 7-aminodesacetoxycephalosporanic acid) conjugates were synthesized and their antibacterial properties evaluated by biochemical and microbiological assays. The ruthenocene derivatives showed a higher level of inhibition of DD-carboxypeptidase 64-575, a Penicillin Binding Protein (PBP), than the ferrocene derivatives and the reference compound penicillin G. Protein X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed a covalent acyl-enzyme complex of a ruthenocenyl compound with CTX-M β-lactamase E166A mutant, corresponding to a similar complex with PBPs responsible for the bactericidal activities of these compounds. Most interestingly, an intact compound was captured at the crystal-packing interface, elucidating for the first time the structure of a metallocenyl β-lactam compound that previously eluded small molecule crystallography. We propose that protein crystals, even from biologically unrelated molecules, can be utilized to determine structures of small molecules.

Abstract
In the title compound, [Fe(C5H5)(C7H8ClO)], the ferrocene cyclopentadiene rings are slightly staggered and inclined to one another at an angle of 0.79 (13)°. In the crystal, C—H...Cl and C—H...O hydrogen bonds each form inversion dimers and these combine with an edge-to-face C—H...π hydrogen bond to stack the molecules along theb-axis direction.

Abstract
Examples of organometallic compounds as nucleoside analogues are rare within the field of medicinal bioorganometallic chemistry. We report on the synthesis and properties of two chiral ferrocene derivatives containing a nucleobase and a hydroxyalkyl group. These so-called ferronucleosides show promising anticancer activity, with cytostatic studies on five different cancer cell lines indicating that both functional groups are required for optimal activity.

Abstract
Sandwich complexes feature unique properties as the physical and electronic properties of a hydrocarbon ligand or its derivative are integrated into the physical, electronic, magnetic, and optical properties of a metal. Incorporation of these complexes into macromolecules results in intriguing physical, electrical, and optical properties that were hitherto unknown in organic-based macromolecules. These properties are tunable through well-designed synthetic strategies. This review surveys many of the synthetic approaches that have resulted in tuning the properties of sandwich complex-containing macromolecules. While the past two decades have seen an ever-growing number of research publications in this field, gaps remain to be filled. Thus, we expect this review to stimulate research interest towards bridging these gaps, which include the insolubility of some of these macromolecules as well as expanding the scope of the sandwich complexes.
