In this manuscript we have documented the identification of a novel anticancer scaffold 3-(benzofuran-2-ylmethyl)-1H-indole. This scaffold has been designed by tweaking the known bisindolylmethane scaffold of natural products that display a wide range of biological activities. A series of 24 new conjugates have been synthesized and among them 5 der...

The supramolecular approach is among the most convenient methodologies for creating artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs). Usually this approach involves the binding of a transition metal ion complex to a biomolecular scaffold via its ligand, which also modulates the catalytic properties of the metal ion. Herein, we report ArMs based on the proteins Cgm...

Two series of new compounds containing 1,2,3-triazole moiety were designed as putative GlyT1 inhibitors aiming the discovery of new hits with activity in cognitive disorders. 1,4-Disubstituted α-hydroxy-1,2,3-triazoles were obtained as racemates in moderate to good yields by the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction (click ch...

A new multidentate ligand (H3 L) was synthesized by the condensation reaction of 4-tert-butyl-2,6-diformylphenol and 2-amino-4-nitrophenol. The reaction of the ligand with hydrated lanthanide nitrate produced two isostructural trinuclear coordination clusters: [DyLn3 L3 (DMF)3 (H2 O)2 ] ⋅ 3.8DMFLn=Dy (1) and Nd (2) (DMF=N, N-dimethylformamide). Sin...

In nature, cyclic dipeptide prenyltransferases catalyze regioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylations of tryptophan-containing cyclic dipeptides. This enzyme class, belonging to the dimethylallyl tryptophan synthase superfamily, is known to be flexible toward aromatic prenyl acceptors, while mostly retaining its typical regioselectivity. Ardeemin fumiq...

A concise and highly stereoselective total synthesis of the Daphniphyllum alkaloids (-)-daphenylline has been accomplished. The synthesis was started from (S)-carvone and proceeded via a stereoselective Mg(ClO4 )2 -catalyzed intramolecular amide addition cyclization, an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction to construct the ABCD tetracyclic core arch...

The endogenous steroid 2-methoxyestradiol (1) has attracted a great interest as a lead compound towards the development of new anti-cancer drugs. Herein, the synthesis, molecular modeling, anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic effects of ten 2-ethyl and four 2-methoxy analogs of estradiol are reported. The ethyl group was introduced to the steroid...

Hyper-crosslinked polymers (HCPs) are promising materials for gas capture and storage because of their low cost and easy preparation. In this work, we report the massive preparation of coumarone-indene resin-based hyper-crosslinked polymers via one-step Friedel-Crafts alkylation. Low-cost coumarone-indene resin serves as the new building block and ...

A FeCl3·6H2O-catalyzed synthesis of β-ketothioesters from the hydrolysis reaction of chain α-oxoketene dithioacetals was carried out. Subsequently, we explored the FeCl3·6H2O-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkylation of the synthesized β-ketothioesters with alcohols in CH3CN at 25 °C, affording the desired α-alkylated β-ketothioesters in excellent yields...
