Abstract
Bis-indolylquinones are fungal natural products endowed with interesting pharmacological properties. Most of the previously described methodologies in solution for the construction of the bis-indolylquinone framework show disadvantages associated with long reaction times and difficult, waste-generating purifications. A one-pot mechanochemical methodology for the synthesis of indolylquinones was developed, starting from indoles and dihaloquinones in the presence of FeCl3 or p-TsOH as catalysts and Fetizon's reagent as an oxidant. In contrast to solution chemistry, mechanochemical activation allowed the double addition of indole to a quinone substrate in one pot, leading to symmetrical or non-symmetrical bis-indolylquinones via a domino processes comprising up to six steps. In terms of sustainability, the method has several advantages over the solution protocol, including much shorter reaction times, no external heating, one-pot operation, and the absence of chromatography, leading to a drastically better performance in green metrics and demonstrating the application of several principles of green chemistry, in particular principles 2, 3, and 5.

Abstract
Perezone is a naturally occurring hydroxyquinone that has been deeply studied from different chemical aspects, such as therapeutics, electrochemistry, physical-chemical properties, or synthetic approaches that turn it an attractive template for new semisynthetic derivatives with a wide range of purposes. Herein, we describe a facile synthetic pathway to obtain new perezone derivatives by the addition of a pyrrole moiety that can be used for ion recognition. Compounds 2-4 showed the capability to interact with several anions and M2+ cations as separate events that result in colorimetric changes. Moreover, the compounds can behave as heteroditopic receptors. Besides, a previous interaction between fluoride ions and perezone derivatives triggered a successful recognition of M2+ ions, remarking Ni2+ as the most interesting phenomenon. These results project the compounds as potential colorimetric receptors for nickel ions in complex solutions.

Abstract
Polycaprolactone (PCL) is a well-known FDA approved biomaterial for tissue engineering. However, its hydrophobic properties limit its use for skin wound healing which makes its functionalization necessary. In this work, we present the fabrication and evaluation of PCL nanofibers by the electrospinning technique, as well as PCL functionalized with 6-deoxy-6-amino-β-cyclodextrin (aminated nanofibers). Afterwards, epithelial growth factor (EGF) was anchored onto hydrophilic PCL/deoxy-6-amino-β-cyclodextrin. The characterization of the three electrospun fibers was made by means of field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR); Confocal-Raman Spectroscopy were used for elucidated the chemical structure, the hydrophilicity was determined by Contact Angle (CA). In vitro cell proliferation test was made by seeding embryonic fibroblast cell line (3T3) onto the electrospun mats and in vivo studies in a murine model were conducted to prove its effectivity as skin wound healing material. The in vitro studies showed that aminated nanofibers without and with EGF had 100 and 150% more cell proliferation of 3T3 cells against the PCL alone, respectively. In vivo results showed that skin wound healing in a murine model was accelerated by the incorporation of the EGF. In addition, the EGF had favorable effects in epidermal cell proliferation. The study demonstrates that a protein of high biological interest like EGF can be attached covalently to the surface of a synthetic material enriched with amino groups. This kind of biomaterial has a great potential for applications in skin regeneration and wound healing.

Abstract
Employing theoretical calculations with density functional theory (DFT) using the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) functional and basis set, the interaction of the aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) molecule and the functional groups present in the Pyracantha koidzumii biosorbent was investigated. Dissociation free energy and acidity equilibrium constant values were obtained theoretically both in solution (water) and gas phases. Additionally, the molecular electrostatic potential for the protonated molecules was calculated to verify the reactivity. Thus, methanol (hydroxyl group), methylammonium ion (amino group), acetate ion (carboxyl group), and acetone (carbonyl group), were used as representatives of the substrates present in the biomass; these references were considered using the corresponding protonated or unprotonated forms at a pH value of 5. The experimental infrared spectrophotometric data suggested the participation of these functional groups in the AFB1 biosorption process, indicating that the mechanism was dominated by electrostatic interactions between the charged functional groups and the positively charged AFB1 molecule. The theoretical determination indicated that the carboxylate ion provided the highest interaction energy with the AFB1 molecule. Consequently, an enriched biosorbent with compounds containing carboxyl groups could improve the yield of the AFB1 adsorption when using in vitro and in vivo trials.

Abstract
Perezone, a sesquiterpene quinone, is a very important molecule due to its pharmacological activities in addition to the fact that it is considered to be the first secondary metabolite isolated in the new world (America–Mexico, 1852). This study aims to offer a green comparative study about the extraction of the target molecule from the roots of the vegetable specimen Acourtia platyphilla (A. Grey). The study was performed comparing five different modes of extraction: supercritical CO2, electromagnetic infrared and microwave irradiations, mechanical-wave ultrasound versus typical mantle heating procedure. An exhaustive comparative-discussion of the obtained results is provided. It is worth noting that the corresponding quantifications were established using 1H NMR, correlating appropriately the integrals of the vinylic proton H-6 of perezone with the aromatic singlet of p-dinitrobenzene employed as an internal reference. It is also important to highlight that the four presented procedures are novel modes to extract perezone. Finally, a complementary study about the solubility of the target sesquiterpene quinone related to the use of supercritical CO2 is also reported.

Abstract
The structure of the ortho-, meta- and para- hybrid diindolylmethane-phenylboronic acids and their interactions were optimized with by a quantum chemical method, using density functional theory at the (DFT) level. Thus, infrared bands were assigned based on the scaled theoretical wavenumbers by correlating the respective experimental data of the molecules. In addition, the corresponding 1H-/13C-/11B-NMR experimental and theoretical chemical shifts were correlated. The target molecules showed a poor treatment of the OH shifts in the GIAO method due to the absence of explicit solvent effects in these calculations; therefore, they were explicitly considered with acetone molecules. Moreover, the electron density at the hydrogen bond critical point increased, generating stabilization energy, from weak to moderate or weak to strong, serving as an indicator of the strength of the hydrogen bond between the different intermolecular interactions. Finally, some properties related to the reactive behavior of the target molecules associated with their cytotoxic effects and metabolic pathways were also calculated.

Abstract
Several indolylquinone analogues of perezone, a natural sesquiterpene quinone, were characterized in this work by theoretical methods. In addition, some physicochemical, toxicological and metabolic properties were predicted using bioinformatics software. The predicted physicochemical properties are in agreement with the solubility and cLogP values, the penetration across the cell membrane, and absorption values, as well as with a possible apoptosis-activated mechanism of cytotoxic action. The toxicological predictions suggest no mutagenic, tumorigenic or reproductive effects of the four target molecules. Complementarily, the results of a performed docking study show high scoring values and hydrogen bonding values in agreement with the cytotoxicity IC50 value ranking, i.e: indolylmenadione > indolylperezone > indolylplumbagine > indolylisoperezone. Consequently, it is possible to suggest an appropriate apoptotic pathway for each compound. Finally, potential metabolic pathways of the molecules were proposed.
