An unprecedented straightforward reductive amidation of chloroalkanes with nitroarenes was readily accomplished by merging iron catalysis with visible-light photoredox catalysis. A variety of commercially inexpensive abundant nitroarenes and chloroalkanes were utilized directly for the preparation of diverse N-aryl amides under environmentally benign mild conditions. This protocol featured an avoidance

The search for new antimalarial agents is necessary as current drugs in the market have become vulnerable due to the emergence of resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum (Pf). The enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (PfDHODH) is a validated target for development of antimalarial agents. PfDHODH is a crucial enzyme in the de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis pathway and is essential for the growth of the parasite. In this article, we report the design, synthesis and evaluation of benzanilides as inhibitors of PfDHODH. From the pool of molecules designed using molecular modeling techniques, candidates were shortlisted for further evaluation based on docking scores and 3D-QSAR studies. The activities of these shortlisted analogs were predicted from CoMFA and CoMSIA models. The most promising molecules were synthesized using solvent-free microwave-assisted synthesis and their structures characterized by spectroscopic techniques. The molecules were screened for in vitro antimalarial activity by the whole cell assay method. Two molecules viz. KMC-3 and KMC-15 were found to be active at 8.7 and 5.7 mu M concentrations, respectively.
