RESUMEN
Diverse reactivity of the bulky tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl substituent [Si(SiMe3)3], also known as the hypersilyl group, was observed for amidinate-supported dichloro- and phenylchloroborane complexes. Treatment of the dichloroborane with potassium tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl led to the activation of the backbone ß-carbon center and formation of saturated four-membered heterocyclic chloroboranes R'{Si(SiMe3)3}C(NR)2BCl [R' = Ph, R = Cy (3); R' = Ph, R = iPr (6); R' = tBu, R = Cy (8)], whereas the four-membered amidinate hypersilyl-substituted phenyl borane 4 {PhC(NCy)2B(Ph)[Si(SiMe3)3]} was observed for the case of an amidinate-supported phenylchloroborane. The highly deshielded 11B NMR spectroscopic resonance and the distinct difference in the 29Si NMR spectrum confirmed the presence of a σ-donating hypersilyl effect on compounds 3, 6, and 8. Reaction of 3 with the Lewis acid AlCl3 led to the formation of complex 11 in which an unusual cleavage of one of the C-N bonds of the amidinate backbone is observed. Nucleophilic substitution at the boron center of saturated chloroborane 3 with phenyllithium generated the phenylborane derivative 12, whereas the secondary monomeric boron hydride 13 was observed after treatment with alane (AlH3). All compounds (2-13) have been fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray structure determination studies.
RESUMEN
The three-components one-pot Kabachnik-Fields reaction of sulfapyridine, diethyl phosphite, and aldehyde under thermal catalysis reaction condition in the presence of bismuth (III) triflate as a catalyst afford the corresponding sulfonamide-phosphonates (3a-3p) in good to excellent yields (78%-91%). The structures of the new synthesized compounds were elucidated and confirmed by variable spectroscopic studies. Single crystal X-ray studies for 3a, 3d, and 3i verified the proposed structure. The newly developed sulfonamide-phosphonates were evaluated for their inhibitory properties against four isoforms of human carbonic anhydrase (hCA I, II, IX, and XII). The results demonstrated that they exhibited greater potency in inhibiting hCA XII compared to hCA I, II, and IX, with Ki ranging from 5.1 to 51.1 nM. Compounds 3l and 3p displayed the highest potency, exhibiting selectivity ratios of I/XII >298.7 and 8.5, and II/XII ratios of 678.1 and 142.1, respectively. Molecular docking studies were conducted to explore their binding patterns within the binding pocket of CA XII. The results revealed that the sulfonamide NH group coordinated with the Zn2+ ion, and hydrogen bond interactions were observed with residue Thr200. Additionally, hydrophobic interactions were identified between the benzenesulfonamide phenyl ring and Leu198. Compounds 3p and 3l exhibited an additional hydrogen bonding interaction with other amino acid residues. These supplementary interactions may contribute to the enhanced potency and selectivity of these compounds toward the CA XII isoform.

The controlled formation of mixed-metal bimetallics was realised through use of a fac-[Re(CO)3(N,N'-bpy-P)Cl] complex bearing an exogenous 2,4,6-trioxa-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-8-phosphaadamantane donor at the 5-position of the bpy. The introduction of gold, silver, and rhodium with appropriate secondary ligands was readily achieved from established starting materials. Restricted rotation about the C(bpy)-P bond was observed in several of the bimetallic complexes and correlated with the relative steric bulk of the second metal moiety. Related chemistry with the 6-substituted derivative proved more limited in scope with only the bimetallic Re/Au complex being isolated.
RESUMEN
The COVID-19 pandemic has posed a significant threat to society in recent times, endangering human health, life, and economic well-being. The disease quickly spreads due to the highly infectious SARS-CoV-2 virus, which has undergone numerous mutations. Despite intense research efforts by the scientific community since its emergence in 2019, no effective therapeutics have been discovered yet. While some repurposed drugs have been used to control the global outbreak and save lives, none have proven universally effective, particularly for severely infected patients. Although the spread of the disease is generally under control, anti-SARS-CoV-2 agents are still needed to combat current and future infections. This study reviews some of the most promising repurposed drugs containing indolyl heterocycle, which is an essential scaffold of many alkaloids with diverse bio-properties in various biological fields. The study also discusses natural and synthetic indole-containing compounds with anti-SARS-CoV-2 properties and computer-aided drug design (in silico studies) for optimizing anti-SARS-CoV-2 hits/leads.

The strategic planning of this study is based upon using the nanoformulation method to prepare nanoparticles 4-SLNs and 4-LPHNPs of the previously prepared 4,5-diphenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridazin-3-amine (4) after confirming its structure with single crystal X-ray analysis. These nanoparticles exhibited promising cytotoxic activity against HepG-2, HCT-116 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines in comparison with the reference doxorubicin and the original derivative 4. Moreover, their inhibitory assessment against EGFR and CDK-2/cyclin A2 displayed improved and more favorable impact than the parent 4 and the references. Detection of their influence upon cancer biomarkers revealed upregulation of Bax, p53 and caspase-3 levels and downregulation of Bcl-2 levels. The docking simulation demonstrated that the presence of the pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridazin-3-amine scaffold is amenable to enclosure and binding well within EGFR and CDK-2 receptors through different hydrophilic interactions. The pharmacokinetic and physicochemical properties of target 4 were also assessed with ADME investigation, and the outcome indicated good drug-like characteristics.

A new set of ibuprofen-quinoline conjugates comprising quinolinyl heterocycle and ibuprofen moieties linked by an alkyl chain were synthesized in good yields utilizing an optimized reaction procedure in a molecular hybridization approach to overcome the drawbacks of the current non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The synthesized conjugates were screened for their anti-inflammatory, and ulcerogenic properties. Several conjugates were found to have significant anti-inflammatory properties in the carrageenan-induced rat paw edema test without showing any ulcerogenic liability. In addition, most conjugates showed promising peripheral analgesic activity in the acetic acid-induced writhing test as well as central analgesic properties in the in vivo hot plate test. The most promising conjugates were the unsubstituted and 6-substituted fluoro- and chloro-derivatives of 2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline linked to ibuprofen by a propyl chain. Their anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated against LPS-stimulated inflammatory reactions in RAW264.7 mouse macrophages. In this regard, it was found that most of the conjugates were able to significantly reduce the release and production of nitric oxide in the LPS-stimulated macrophages. The secretion and expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6, TNF-α, and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were also significantly suppressed.

The title compound was synthesized and structurally characterized. Theoretical IR, NMR (with the GIAO technique), UV, and nonlinear optical properties (NLO) in four different solvents were calculated for the compound. The calculated HOMO-LUMO energies using time-dependent (TD) DFT revealed that charge transfer occurs within the molecule, and probable transitions in the four solvents were identified. The in silico absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) analysis was performed in order to determine some physicochemical, lipophilicity, water solubility, pharmacokinetics, drug-likeness, and medicinal properties of the molecule. Finally, molecular docking calculation was performed, and the results were evaluated in detail.

Reactions of 1-(5-methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethan-1-ones and benzaldehydes in ethanol under basic conditions gave the corresponding chalcones. Reactions of the chalcones combined with thiosemicarbazide in dry ethanol containing sodium hydroxide afforded the corresponding pyrazolin-N-thioamides. Reactions of the synthesized pyrazolin-N-thioamides and several ketones (namely, ethyl 2-chloro-3-oxobutanoate, 2-bromoacetylbenzofuran, and hydrazonoyl chloride) gave the corresponding novel 2-(1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazoles in high yields (77-90%). Additionally, 2-(4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-4-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)thiazoles were obtained in high yields (84-87%) from reactions with N-pyrazoline-thioamides and 4-bromoacetyl-1,2,3-triazoles under basic conditions. The structures of six of the newly synthesized heterocycles were confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

Asthma is still an incurable disease, and there is a recognized need for novel small-molecule therapies for people with asthma, especially those poorly controlled by current treatments. We previously demonstrated that calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) negative allosteric modulators (NAMs), calcilytics, uniquely suppress both airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and inflammation in human cells and murine asthma surrogates. Here we assess the feasibility of repurposing four CaSR NAMs, which were originally developed for oral therapy for osteoporosis and previously tested in the clinic as a novel, single, and comprehensive topical antiasthma therapy. We address the hypotheses, using murine asthma surrogates, that topically delivered CaSR NAMs 1) abolish AHR; 2) are unlikely to cause unwanted systemic effects; 3) are suitable for topical application; and 4) inhibit airway inflammation to the same degree as the current standard of care, inhaled corticosteroids, and, furthermore, inhibit airway remodeling. All four CaSR NAMs inhibited poly-L-arginine-induced AHR in naïve mice and suppressed both AHR and airway inflammation in a murine surrogate of acute asthma, confirming class specificity. Repeated exposure to inhaled CaSR NAMs did not alter blood pressure, heart rate, or serum calcium concentrations. Optimal candidates for repurposing were identified based on anti-AHR/inflammatory activities, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, formulation, and micronization studies. Whereas both inhaled CaSR NAMs and inhaled corticosteroids reduced airways inflammation, only the former prevented goblet cell hyperplasia in a chronic asthma model. We conclude that inhaled CaSR NAMs are likely a single, safe, and effective topical therapy for human asthma, abolishing AHR, suppressing airways inflammation, and abrogating some features of airway remodeling. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) reduce airway smooth muscle hyperresponsiveness, reverse airway inflammation as efficiently as topical corticosteroids, and suppress airway remodeling in asthma surrogates. CaSR NAMs, which were initially developed for oral therapy of osteoporosis proved inefficacious for this indication despite being safe and well tolerated. Here we show that structurally unrelated CaSR NAMs are suitable for inhaled delivery and represent a one-stop, steroid-free approach to asthma control and prophylaxis.

The androgen receptor (AR) is a pivotal target for the treatment of prostate cancer (PC) even when the disease progresses toward androgen-independent or castration-resistant forms. In this study, a series of sulfoxide derivatives were prepared and their antiproliferative activity evaluated in vitro against four different human prostate cancer cell lines (22Rv1, DU-145, LNCaP and VCap). Bicalutamide and enzalutamide were used as positive controls. Compound 28 displayed significant enhancement in anticancer activity across the four PC cell lines with IC50 = 9.09 - 31.11 µM compared to the positive controls: bicalutamide (IC50 = 45.20 -51.61 µM) and enzalutamide (IC50 = 11.47 - 53.04 µM). Sulfoxide derivatives of bicalutamide were prepared efficiently from the corresponding sulfides using only one equivalent of mCPBA, limiting the reaction time to 15-30 min and maintaining the temperature at 0 °C. Interestingly, three pairs of sulfoxide diastereomers were separated and NMR comparison of their diastereotopic methylene (CH2) group is presented. X-ray diffraction crystal structure analysis provided relative configuration assignment at the chiral sulfur and carbon centres. Molecular modelling study of the four diastereoisomers of compound 28 is described.

Pharmacological allosteric agonists (calcimimetics) of the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) have substantial gastro-intestinal side effects and induce the expression of inflammatory markers in colon cancer cells. Here, we compared the effects of both CaSR-specific (R enantiomers) and -unspecific (S enantiomers) enantiomers of a calcimimetic (NPS 568) and a calcilytic (allosteric CaSR antagonists; NPS 2143) to prove that these effects are indeed mediated via the CaSR, rather than via off-target effects, e.g., on ß-adrenoceptors or calcium channels, of these drugs. The unspecific S enantiomer of NPS 2143 and NPS S-2143 was prepared using synthetic chemistry and characterized using crystallography. NPS S-2143 was then tested in HEK-293 cells stably transfected with the human CaSR (HEK-CaSR), where it did not inhibit CaSR-mediated intracellular Ca2+ signals, as expected. HT29 colon cancer cells transfected with the CaSR were treated with both enantiomers of NPS 568 and NPS 2143 alone or in combination, and the expression of CaSR and the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin 8 (IL-8) was measured by RT-qPCR and ELISA. Only the CaSR-selective enantiomers of the calcimimetic NPS 568 and NPS 2143 were able to modulate CaSR and IL-8 expression. We proved that pro-inflammatory effects in colon cancer cells are indeed mediated through CaSR activation. The non-CaSR selective enantiomer NPS S-2143 will be a valuable tool for investigations in CaSR-mediated processes.

The synthesis of conventional porous crystals involves building a framework using reversible chemical bond formation, which can result in hydrolytic instability. In contrast, porous molecular crystals assemble using only weak intermolecular interactions, which generally do not provide the same environmental stability. Here, we report that the simple co-crystallization of a phthalocyanine derivative and a fullerene (C60 or C70) forms porous molecular crystals with environmental stability towards high temperature and hot aqueous base or acid. Moreover, by using diamond anvil cells and synchrotron single-crystal measurements, stability towards extreme pressure (>4 GPa) is demonstrated, with the stabilizing fullerene held between two phthalocyanines and the hold tightening at high pressure. Access to open metal centres within the porous molecular co-crystal is demonstrated by in situ crystallographic analysis of the chemisorption of pyridine, oxygen and carbon monoxide. This suggests strategies for the formation of highly stable and potentially functional porous materials using only weak van der Waals intermolecular interactions.
RESUMEN
The design of coordination sites around lanthanide ions has a strong impact on the sensitization of their luminescent signal. An imidodiphosphonate anionic binding site is attractive as it can be functionalized with "remote" sensitizer units, such as phenoxy moieties, namely, HtpOp, accompanied by an increased distance of the lanthanide from the ligand high-energy stretching vibrations which quench the luminescence signal, hence providing flexible shielding of the lanthanide. We report the formation and isolation of Ln(tpOp)3 complexes where Ln = Er, Gd, Tb, Dy, Eu, and Yb and the Y(tpOp)3 diamagnetic analogue. The complexes are formed from reaction of KtpOp and the corresponding LnCl3·6H2O salt either by titration and in situ formation or by mixing and isolation. All complexes are seven-coordinated by three tpOp ligand plus one ethanol molecule, except for Yb(tpOp)3 which has no solvent coordinated. Phosphorus NMR shows characteristic shifts to support the coordination of the lanthanide complexes. The complexes display visible and near-infrared luminescence with long lifetimes even for the near-infrared complexes which range from 3.3 µs for Nd(tpOp)3 to 20 µs for Yb(tpOp)3. The ligand shows more efficient sensitization than the imidodiphosphinate analogues for all lanthanide complexes with a notable quantum yield of the Tb(tpOp)3 complex at 45%. We attribute this to the properties of the remote sensitizer unit and its positioning further away from the lanthanide, eliminating quenching of high energy C-H vibrations from the ligand shell. Calculations of the ligand shielding support the photophysical properties of the complexes. These results suggest that these binding sites are promising in the further development of the lanthanide complexes in optoelectronic devices for telecommunications and new light emitting materials.
RESUMEN
With the growing realization that crystallization processes may evolve through a sequence of different solid forms, including amorphous precursor phases, the development of suitable in-situ experimental probes is essential for comprehensively mapping the time-evolution of such processes. Here we demonstrate that the CLASSIC NMR (Combined Liquid- And Solid-State In-situ Crystallization NMR) strategy is a powerful technique for revealing the transitory existence of amorphous phases during crystallization processes, applying this technique to study crystallization of dl-menthol and l-menthol from their molten liquid phases. The CLASSIC NMR results provide direct insights into the conditions (including the specific time period) under which the molten liquid phase, transitory amorphous phases and final crystalline phases exist during these crystallization processes.
RESUMEN
A single enantiomer of a cationic phosphine, [α-CgPAmHMe]BF4, containing two asymmetric subunits, an amidinium group (AmH) and a phosphacycle (CgP), has been synthesized and isolated. The ligand, which is of an extremely rare class, has been coordinated to Rh(I), Au(I), Ag(I), Cu(I), and Pt(0) to enable an empirical assessment of its donor properties. Analysis of the IR stretching frequency of the carbonyl ligand in trans-[Rh(α-CgPAmHMe)2(CO)Cl](BF4)2 coupled with metric data obtained from crystal-state molecular structures of pertinent complexes confirms the strong π-accepting properties of the ligand. The integrity of the N-P bond is compromised upon addition of base to both [Cu(α-CgPAmHMe)Cl]BF4 and [Ag(α-CgPAmHMe)(OTf)]BF4 where, instead of isolating anticipated chelating and/or bridging forms of the neutral, deprotonated α-CgPAmMe derivative, decomposition products were obtained containing a phosphacycle fragment and/or amidine ligands. The fragility of the N-P bond is also evident in uncoordinated [α-CgPAmHMe]BF4 as treatment with aqueous base releases a neutral amidine fragment and generates the P-P dimer [α,α-CgPP(O)Cg]. These fortuitous observations show [α-CgPAmHMe]BF4 to be a very useful synthon for the potential production of novel asymmetric phosphines.
RESUMEN
Glucaric acid has potential applications in food, pharmaceutical and polymer industries yet no methodology exists within the public domain for isolation of this key bio-derived platform molecule as a pure, crystalline solid. Here we demonstrate the difficulties, which arise in doing so and report development of a process for derivation of free-glucaric acid from its Ca2+/K+ glucarate salts, which are both commercially available. Employing Amberlyst-15 (H+) exchange resin and azeotrope drying, powdered glucaric acid is prepared at > 99.96 % purity in 98.7 % dry yield.
RESUMEN
Efficient reactions between fluorine-functionalised biphenyl and terphenyl derivatives with catechol-functionalised terminal groups provide a route to large, discrete organic molecules of intrinsic microporosity (OMIMs) that provide porous solids solely by their inefficient packing. By altering the size and substituent bulk of the terminal groups, a number of soluble compounds with apparent BET surface areas in excess of 600â m(2) g(-1) are produced. The efficiency of OMIM structural units for generating microporosity is in the order: propellane>triptycene>hexaphenylbenzene>spirobifluorene>naphthyl=phenyl. The introduction of bulky hydrocarbon substituents significantly enhances microporosity by further reducing packing efficiency. These results are consistent with findings from previously reported packing simulation studies. The introduction of methyl groups at the bridgehead position of triptycene units reduces intrinsic microporosity. This is presumably due to their internal position within the OMIM structure so that they occupy space, but unlike peripheral substituents they do not contribute to the generation of free volume by inefficient packing.
RESUMEN
Saccharin, uracil, and 1,2,4-oxadiazole heterocyles are important in terms of exhibiting various biological acitivities. In this work, four series of 1,2,4-oxadiazolylmethyl-substituted saccharin, and uracil derivatives are synthesized and their structures are identified by means of spectral/physical characteristics. The first series are oxadiazolylmethyl-substituted saccharins. The second one is oxadiazole-substituted uracils which are obtained as a separable mixture of both mono- and bis-substituted end products. Third series is obtained from 5-amino uracil and chloromethyl oxadiazoles. The fourth group is oxadiazolyl methyl-substituted imino uracils. The structures of some title compounds are also confirmed by X-ray diffraction data.

We have prepared a range of alkynyl benzoates in high yields and have investigated their reactivities with the strong Lewis acid B(C6F5)3. In such molecules both σ-activation of the carbonyl and π-activation of the alkyne are possible. In contrast to the reactivity of propargyl esters with B(C6F5)3 which proceed via 1,2-addition of the ester and B(C6F5)3 across the alkyne, the inclusion of an additional CH2 spacer switches off the intramolecular cyclization and selective σ-activation of the carbonyl group is observed through adduct formation. This change in reactivity appears due to the instability of the species which would be formed through B(C6F5)3 activation of the alkyne.

In the title compound, [Ni(C13H17N3)2]Cl2·3.5H2O, the geom-etry of the NiN6 complex cation is slightly distorted octa-hedral, with a facial arrangement of the two tridentate N-[2-(di--methyl-amino)-eth-yl]quinolin-8-amine ligands around the metal ion. The asymmetric unit consists of two independent complex half-mol-ecules located on centres of inversion, together with two chloride counter-anions and 3.5 water mol-ecules of solvation, one of which is disordered across an inversion centre. In the crystal, O-Hâ¯O, O-Hâ¯Cl and N-Hâ¯Cl hydrogen-bonding inter-actions form a three-dimensional network structure.
