RESUMEN
A robust economic approach to N-(quinazoline-4-yl)sulfonamides was developed and synthesized different aryl, hetero aryl, alkyl and cyclopropyl sulfonamides in excellent yields. All the compounds were evaluated for cytotoxic affinity to SKOV3, DU145, THP1, U937, and COLO205 cell lines. Interesting to find that the bulkiness of substituent at C-2 position of quinazoline forces the molecule to flip around in order to bind in the active site, when compared to the binding preference of previously known quinazoline compounds. Among the 21 compounds synthesized 2b, 2d, 2e, 2h, 2i, 3c, 3d, 3f, 3g and 3h found to be active on all the cell lines tested with IC50 values <10µg/mL. Performed docking simulations to understand the binding preference of various C-2 substituted quinazoline sulfonamides.

In this work we have assessed reactions of N6-([1,1'-biaryl]-2-yl)adenine nucleosides with Pd(OAc)2 and PhI(OAc)2, via a PdII/PdIV redox cycle. The substrates are readily obtained by Pd/Xantphos-catalyzed reaction of adenine nucleosides with 2-bromo-1,1'-biaryls. In PhMe, the N6-biarylyl nucleosides gave C6-carbazolyl nucleoside analogues by C-N bond formation with the exocyclic N6 nitrogen atom. In the solvent screening for the Pd-catalyzed reactions, an uncatalyzed process was found to be operational. It was observed that the carbazolyl products could also be obtained in the absence of a metal catalyst by reaction with PhI(OAc)2 in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP). Thus, under Pd catalysis and in HFIP, reactions proceed to provide carbazolyl nucleoside analogues, with some differences. If reactions of N6-biarylyl nucleoside substrates were conducted in MeCN, formation of aryl benzimidazopurinyl nucleoside derivatives was observed in many cases by C-N bond formation with the N1 ring nitrogen atom of the purine (carbazole and benzimidazole isomers are readily separated by chromatography). Whereas PdII/PdIV redox is responsible for carbazole formation under the metal-catalyzed conditions, in HFIP and MeCN radical cations and/or nitrenium ions can be intermediates. An extensive set of radical inhibition experiments was conducted and the data are presented.
