Abstract
The Biginelli reaction, a three-component cyclocondensation reaction, is an important member of the multicomponent reaction (MCR) family. In this study, we conducted end-group modifications on a variety of biodegradable polyesters, including poly(1,4-butylene adipate) (PBA), poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), polylactic acid (PLA), and poly(p-dioxanone) (PPDO), based on the precursor polyethylene glycol (PEG). By combining two polymers through the Biginelli multi-component reaction, four new biodegradable polyester copolymers, namely DHPM-PBA, DHPM-PCL, DHPM-PLA, and DHPM-PPDO, were formed. These Biginelli reactions demonstrated exceptional completeness, validating the efficiency of the synthesis strategy. Although the introduction of various polyesters lead to different properties, such as crystallinity and cytotoxicity, the newly synthesized 3,4-dihydro-2(H)-pyrimidinone compounds (DHPMs) exhibit enhanced hydrophilicity and can self-assemble in water and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution to form micelles with a controllable size. Furthermore, DHPM-PPDO promotes cellular growth and has potential applications in wound healing and tissue engineering. In conclusion, this method demonstrates great universality and methodological significance and offers insights into the medical applications of polyethylene glycol.

Stepping Further from Coupling Tools: Development of Functional Polymers via the Biginelli Reaction. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27227886. [PMID: 36431987 PMCID: PMC9698737 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27227886] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) have been used to prepare polymers with appealing functions. The Biginelli reaction, one of the oldest and most famous MCRs, has sparked new scientific discoveries in polymer chemistry since 2013. Recent years have seen the Biginelli reaction stepping further from simple coupling tools; for example, the functions of the Biginelli product 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-(thi)ones (DHPM(T)) have been gradually exploited to develop new functional polymers. In this mini-review, we mainly summarize the recent progress of using the Biginelli reaction to identify polymers for biomedical applications. These polymers have been documented as antioxidants, anticancer agents, and bio-imaging probes. Moreover, we also provide a brief introduction to some emerging applications of the Biginelli reaction in materials and polymer science. Finally, we present our perspectives for the further development of the Biginelli reaction in polymer chemistry.

Abstract
A straightforward route to a large and diverse library of trisubstituted imidazoles was established via a three-component reaction of 2-oxoaldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, and acyclic nitrogen bis-nucleophiles. The obtained products were subsequently explored in a photochemical cyclization yielding a variety of imidazole-fused polycyclic compounds.

Cytoprotective Effects of Water Soluble Dihydropyrimidinthione Derivative Against UV-B Induced Human Corneal Epithelial Cell Photodamage. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:732833. [PMID: 34744716 PMCID: PMC8570246 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.732833] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 09/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Excessive UV-B exposure is well known to be a risk factor for corneal phototoxicity including direct DNA damage and disturbances in the antioxidant balance. Here, we showed a successful synthesis of a water-soluble and biocompatible small molecule DHPM 1 with dihydropyrimidinthione skeleton, which could effectively protect human corneal epithelial (HCE-2) cells from UV-B damage. In separate experiments, DHPM 1 absorbed UV-B rays and exhibited scavenging activity against intracellular ROS induced by UV-B radiation, thereby reducing the levels of DNA fragmentation. Additionally, UV-B exposure increased the expression of cleaved caspase-3, as well as the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 at protein levels, while pretreatment with DHPM 1 significantly reversed these changes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a study based on dihydropyrimidinthione derivatives to develop a promising eye drops, which may well find extensive applications in UV-B caused corneal damage.

Abstract
Dual-modal imaging can integrate the advantages of different imaging technologies, which could improve the accuracy and efficiency of clinical diagnosis. Herein, a novel amphiphilic thermal-responsive copolymer obtained from three types of monomers, N-isopropyl acrylamide, 2-(acetoacetoxy) ethyl methacrylate, and propargyl methacrylate, by RAFT copolymerization, is reported. It can be grafted with β-cyclodextrin and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens tetraphenylethylene by click chemistry and Biginelli reaction. The multifunctional supramolecular polymer (P4) can be constructed by host-guest inclusion between the copolymer and the Gd-based contrast agent (CA) modified by adamantane [Ad-(DOTA-Gd)]. And it can form vesicles with a bilayer structure in aqueous which will enhance the AIE and magnetic resonance imaging effects. As fluorescent thermometer, P4 can enter HeLa cells for intracellular fluorescence imaging (FI) and is sensitive to temperature with detection limit value of 1.5 °C. As magnetic resonance CA, P4 exhibits higher relaxation compared to Magnevist, which can prolong the circulation time in vivo. In addition, Gd3+ in the polymer can be quickly released from the body by disassembly that reduced the biological toxicity. This work introduces new synthetic ideas for dual-modal probe, which has great potential for clinical diagnostic applications in bioimaging.
