Alkaloids of the naamine family were synthesized from diverse propargylamines in just two steps (see scheme: R1=Me, R2=substituted benzyl, R3=Ar). Thus, the addition to a propargylamine of a carbodiimide generated in situ, silver(I)‐catalyzed intramolecular hydroamidation, and subsquent deprotection provide access to the heterocyclic core of numerous natural products and biologically active compounds
Bioactivity-guided phytochemical investigation on 70% aqueous acetone extracts of the twigs and leaves of Horsfieldia kingii led to the isolation of two novel cyclic diarylpropanes (1 and 2) bearing a 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene core, one new diarylpropane (3), six known diarylpropanes (4-9), one flavanol (10), and seven lignans (11-17). Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis, electronic circular dichroism calculations, and X-ray diffraction crystallography. Moreover, a biomimetic synthesis of 1 and 2 were accomplished in four steps. The in vitro nitric oxide production inhibition tests of these compounds revealed that compounds (+/-)-2, (+)-2, (-)-2, and 10 were potential with IC50 values lower than 10 AM. Compound 2 could inhibit iNOS expression in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells at a series of non-cytotoxic concentrations (<20 mu M). Furthermore, the bioassay results also suggested the primary SARs of 1-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene based scaffold. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The regioselectivity of the Friedel-Crafts-type cyclisation of a range of gamma-aryl-B-benzoylamido acids, bearing oxy substituents at the C(3)- and C(4)-positions of the gamma-aryl ring, has been investigated. In all of the cases examined (with 3,4-dimethoxy, 3,4-methylenedioxy and 3-hydroxy-4-methoxy substituents) the Lewis acid promoted cyclisation proceeds with exclusive regioselectivity for attack at the C(6)-position rather than at the C(2)-position, and furnishes the corresponding N- and O-protected 3-amino-6,7-dihydroxy-1-tetralone derivatives. This inherent regioselectivity can be overturned by the regioselective introduction of chlorine as a blocking group for the C(6)-position; subsequent Lewis acid promoted cyclisation then proceeds with exclusive regioselectivity for attack at the C(2)-position to deliver the corresponding N- and O-protected 3-amino-5-chloro-7,8-dihydroxy-1-tetralone derivative. These complementary cyclisation protocols represent useful methods for the preparation of these benzo-fused carbocyclic ring systems, which are the functionalised AB-rings of a range of morphinan alkaloids.
