Abstract
An efficient C-3 halogenation of quinolin-4-ones is reported with halogenated fluorescein dyes which serve both as a halogen source and photocatalyst. This reaction shows broad substrate scope and gives good to excellent yields of C-3 brominated/iodinated quinolones with eosin Y/rose bengal in green light under ambient conditions. The mechanistic investigations suggest a radical pathway involving the oxidative dehalogenation of the dye in the presence of air.

Abstract
The highly diastereoselective 1,4-conjugate additions of several nitrogen nucleophiles to chiral bicyclic dehydroalanines have been assessed effectively at room temperature in good to excellent yields without needing any catalyst or additional base. This methodology is general, simple, oxygen and moisture tolerant, high-yielding, totally chemo- and stereoselective. This procedure offers an efficient and practical approach for the synthesis of Nβ-substituted α,β-diamino acids, such as 1-isohistidine, τ-histidinoalanine, β-benzylaminoalanine, β-(piperidin-1-yl)alanine, β-(azepan-1-yl)alanine, and fluorescent and ciprofloxacin-containing amino acid derivatives.

Abstract
Abstract
The discovery of a drug is known to be quite cumbersome, both in terms of the microscopic fundamental research behind it and the industrial scale manufacturing process. A major concern in drug discovery is the acceleration of the process and cost reduction. The fact that clinical trials cannot be accelerated, therefore, emphasizes the need to accelerate the strategies for identifying lead compounds at an early stage. We, herein, focus on the definition of what would be regarded as a “drug-like” molecule and a “lead-like” one. In particular, “drug-likeness” is referred to as resemblance to existing drugs, whereas “lead-likeness” is characterized by the similarity with structural and physicochemical properties of a “lead”compound, i.e. a reference compound or a starting point for further drug development. It is now well known that a huge proportion of the drug discovery is inspired or derived from natural products (NPs), which have larger complexity as well as size when compared with synthetic compounds. Therefore, similar definitions of “drug-likeness” and “lead-likeness” cannot be applied for the NP-likeness. Rather, there is the dire need to define and explain NP-likeness in regard to chemical structure. An attempt has been made here to give an overview of the general concepts associated with NP discovery, and to provide the foundational basis for defining a molecule as a “drug”, a “lead” or a “natural compound.”

Abstract
Over the past century, a multitude of derivatives of structural scaffolds with established antimicrobial potential have been prepared and tested, and a variety of new scaffolds have emerged. The effectiveness of antibiotics, however, is in sharp decline because of the emergence of drug-resistant microorganisms. The prevalence of drug resistance, both in clinical and community settings, is a consequence of bacterial ingenuity in altering pathways and/or cell morphology, making it a persistent threat to human health. The fundamental ability of pathogens to survive in a multitude of habitats can be triggered by recognition of chemical signals that warn organisms of exposure to a potentially harmful environment. Host immune defenses, including reactive oxygen intermediates and antibacterial substances, are among the multitude of chemical signals that can subsequently trigger expression of phenotypes better adapted for survival in that hostile environment. Thus, resistance development appears to be unavoidable, which leads to the conclusion that developing an alternative perspective for treatment options is vital. This review will discuss emerging medicinal chemistry approaches for addressing the global multidrug resistance in the 21st century.

Abstract
Simocyclinones are antibiotics produced by Streptomyces and Kitasatospora species that inhibit the validated drug target DNA gyrase in a unique way, and they are thus of therapeutic interest. Structural approaches have revealed their mode of action, the inducible-efflux mechanism in the producing organism, and given insight into one step in their biosynthesis. The crystal structures of simocyclinones bound to their target (gyrase), the transcriptional repressor SimR and the biosynthetic enzyme SimC7 reveal fascinating insight into how molecular recognition is achieved with these three unrelated proteins.
