Ellipsometric and nonlinear optical properties of new, differently substituted, 1,3,5-triphenylpyrazolines dyes, were studied. Results of theoretical calculation within a framework of density functional theory (DFT) technique were verified by spectroscopic ellipsometry and optical second harmonic generation (SHG) experiment at fundamental laser wavelength 1064 nm. Absorption bands and complex refractive indices were determined. Principal role of 2-thienyl substituent for first order nonlinear optical properties was demonstrated.

The ability of chalcogenium salts to transfer an electrophilic moiety to a given nucleophile is well known. However, up to date, these reagents have been used in stoichiometric quantities, producing a substantial amount of waste as byproducts of the reaction. In this report, we disclose further investigation of selenonium salts as S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) surrogates for the alkylation of nucleophiles in aqueous solutions. Most importantly, we were able to convert the stoichiometric process to a catalytic system employing as little as 10 mol % of selenides to accelerate the reaction between benzyl bromide and other alkylating agents with sodium cyanide in water. Probe experiments including 77Se NMR and HRMS of the reaction mixture have unequivocally shown the presence of the selenonium salt in the reaction mixture. (Figure presented.).

In the current study, we report on the development of novel series of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine derivatives (8a-u, 11a-n, and 14a,b) as potential anticancer agents. The prepared pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines have been screened for their antitumor activity in vitro at NCI-DTP. Thereafter, compound 8a was qualified by NCI for full panel five-dose assay to assess its GI50, TGI and LC50 values. Compound 8a showed broad-spectrum anti-proliferative activities over the whole NCI panel, with outstanding growth inhibition full panel GI50 (MG-MID) value equals 2.16 μM and subpanel GI50 (MG-MID) range: 1.92–2.86 μM. Furthermore, pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines 8a, 8e-h, 8o, 8u, 11a, 11e, 11h, 11l and 14a-b were assayed for their antiproliferative effect against a panel of leukemia cell lines (K562, MV4-11, CEM, RS4;11, ML-2 and KOPN-8) where they possessed moderate to excellent anti-leukemic activity. Moreover, pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines 8o, 8u, 14a and 14b were further explored for their effect on cell cycle on RS4;11 cells, in which they dose-dependently increased populations of cells in G2/M phases. Finally we analyzed the changes of selected proteins (HOXA9, MEIS1, PARP, BcL-2 and McL-1) related to cell death and viability in RS4;11 cells via Western blotting. Collectively, the obtained results suggested pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines 8o, 8u, 14a and 14b as promising lead molecules for further optimization to develop more potent and efficient anticancer candidates.

We report mild new annulation approaches to trisubstituted trifluoromethylthiolated (SCF3) aziridines and cyclopropanes via Darzens inspired protocols. The products of these anionic annulations, rarely studied previously, possess attractive features rendering them valuable building blocks for synthesis platforms. In this study, trisubstituted acetophenone nucleophiles bearing SCF3 and bromine substituents in their α position were shown to undergo [2 + 1] annulations with vinyl ketones and tosyl-protected imines under mild reaction conditions.

Novel series of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines 9a–j and 14a–f were prepared via a one-pot three-component reaction. Compounds 9a–j were synthesized by the reaction of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)?1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5-amine (4) with benzoyl acetonitriles 3a,b and aldehydes 5a–e, whereas the spiro derivatives 14a–f were synthesized by the reaction of pyrazole derivative 4 with 3a–c and indoline-2,3-diones 10a,b. Screening of the antiproliferative activity of 9a–j and 14a–f revealed that 14a and 14d were the most potent analogues against HepG2 and HeLa cells, with IC50 = 4.2 and 5.9 μM, respectively. Moreover, compounds 9c and 14a could promote cell cycle disturbance and apoptosis in HepG2 cells, as evidenced by DNA flow cytometry and Annexin V-FITC/PI assays. Cell cycle analysis of 9c and 14a indicated a reduction in HepG2 cells in the G1 phase, with arrest in the S phase and the G2/M phase, respectively. Also, 9c and 14a are good apoptotic inducers in the HepG2 cell line. Furthermore, compounds 9h and 14d stood out as the most efficient antiproliferative agents in the NCI 60-cell line panel screening, with mean GI % equal to 60.3% and 55.4%, respectively. Additionally, 9c, 9h, 14a, and 14d showed good inhibitory action against the cellular pathway regulator p38α kinase, with IC50 = 0.42, 0.41, 0.13, and 0.64 μM, respectively. A docking study was carried out on the p38α kinase active site, showing a binding mode comparable to that of reported p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitors. These newly discovered pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines could be considered as potential candidates for the development of newly targeted anticancer agents.

Novel series of diphenyl-1H-pyrazoles (4a-g) and pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines (5a-g and 7a-i) were synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against breast cancer cell line (MCF7) and Hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (HepG2). The highest MCF7 growth inhibition activity was attained via compounds 4f and 7e (IC50 = 1.29 and 0.93 μM, respectively), while compounds 5b and 7f were the most active ones against HepG2 (IC50 = 1.57 and 1.33 μM, respectively) compared to doxorubicin (IC50 = 1.88 and 7.30 μM, respectively). Cell cycle analysis showed arrest at S and G2-M phases in MCF7 cells treated with 4f and 7e, and at G2-M and G1/S phases in HepG2 cells treated with 5b and 7f, respectively. Apoptotic effect of compounds 4f, 5b, 7e, and 7f was indicated via their pre-G1 early and late apoptotic effects and augmented levels of caspase-9/MCF7 and caspase-3/HepG2. A worthy safety profile was assessed for compounds 4f and 7e on MCF10A and compounds 5b and 7f on THLE2 treated normal cells. Furthermore, compounds 4f, 5b and 7f displayed a promising selective profile for CDK2 inhibition vs. CDK1, CDK4, and CDK7 isoforms as proved from their selectivity index. Docking in CDK2 ATP binding site, co-crystallized with R-Roscovitine, demonstrated analogous interactions and comparable binding energy with the native ligand. 2D QSAR sighted the possible structural features governing the CDK2 inhibition activity elicited by the studied pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines. These findings present compounds 4f, 5b, and 7f as selective CDK2 inhibitors with promising antiproliferative activity against MCF7 and HepG2 cancer cells.

New diphenyl-1H-pyrazoles were synthesized and screened for CDK2 inhibition where 8d, 9b, 9c, and 9e exhibited promising activity (IC50 = 51.21, 41.36, 29.31, and 40.54 nM respectively) compared to R-Roscovitine (IC50 = 43.25 nM). Furthermore, preliminary anti-proliferative activity screening of some selected compounds on 60 cancer cell lines was performed at the (NCI/USA). Compounds 8a-c displayed promising growth inhibitory activity (mean %GI; 73.74, 94.32 and 74.19, respectively). Additionally, they were further selected by the NCI for five-dose assay, exhibiting pronounced activity against almost the full panel (GI50 ranges; 0.181–5.19, 1.07–4.12 and 1.07–4.82 μM, respectively) and (Full panel GI50 (MG-MID); 2.838, 2.306 and 2.770 μM, respectively). Screening the synthesized compounds 8a-c for inhibition of CDK isoforms revealed that compound 8a exhibited nearly equal inhibition to all the tested CDK isoforms, while compound 8b inhibits CDK4/D1 preferentially than the other isoforms and compound 8c inhibits CDK1, CDK2 and CDK4 more than CDK7. Flow cytometry cell cycle assay of 8a-c on Non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCL HOP-92) cell line revealed S phase arrest by 8a and G1/S phase arrest by 8b and 8c. Apoptotic induction in HOP-92 cell line was also observed upon treatment with compounds 8a-c. Docking to CDK2 ATP binding site revealed similar interactions as the co-crystallized ligand R-Roscovitine (PDB code; 3ddq). These findings present compounds 8a-c as promising anti-proliferative agents.

A new transformation pattern for enantioselective intramolecular hydroacylation has been developed involving an alkene isomerization strategy. Proceeding through a five-membered rhodacycle intermediate, 3-enals were converted to C3- or C3,C5-chirogenic cyclopentanones with satisfactory yields, diastereoselectivities, and enantioselectivities. A catalytic cycle has been theoretically calculated and the origin of the stereoselection is rationally explained.

The versatile application of different functional groups such as alcohols (1° and 2°), alkyl arenes, and (aryl)olefins to construct carbon-oxygen bond via oxidation is an area of intense research. Here, we report a reusable heterogeneous V2O5@TiO2 catalyzed selective oxidation of various functionalities utilizing different mild and eco-compatible oxidants under greener reaction conditions. The method was successfully applied for the alcohol oxidation, oxidative scission of styrenes, and benzylic C?H oxidation to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones. The utilization of mild and eco-friendly oxidizing reagents such as K2S2O8, H2O2 (30 % aq.), TBHP (70 % aq.), broad substrate scope, gram-scale synthesis, and catalyst recyclability are notable features of the developed protocol.
