A Bronsted acidcatalyzedbisindolization reaction with suitable α-amidoacetals that tolerates a wide range of indoles is reported. The method allows rapid access to the biologically relevant bisindolyl ethanamine scaffold in good to excellent yields upon mild amide basic hydrolysis. In preliminary pharmacological studies, some of these compounds display cytotoxic activity in U937 cancer cells. The

ingestion of cruciferous vegetables, was recently described to act as a partial agonist of the anti-inflammatory cannabinoid (CB) receptor subtype CB2. In the present study, we synthesized and evaluated a series of DIM derivatives and determined their affinities for human CB receptor subtypes in radioligand binding studies. Potent compounds were additionally evaluated in functional cAMP accumulation and β-arrestin

Plant diseases are one of the natural disasters that seriously harm agricultural production, and it is very difficult to control. The discovery of new antiviral and antifungal lead compounds becomes more and more important. Natural product arundine was found to have anti-tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) activity and anti-phytopathogenic-fungus activity for the first time. A series of arundine analogues were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antiviral and fungicidal activities. Compound 6 with excellent antiviral activity emerged as novel antiviral lead compound. Compound 7 with 12.6-38.3 mu g/mL EC50 values against 14 plant pathogens emerged as novel antifungal lead compound. This work laid a foundation for promoting the application of arundine analogues in plant protection.

Red card for formaldehyde: The direct coupling of indoles with methanol to 3,3′‐bisindolylmethanes with good to excellent yields was accomplished by using a commercially available iridium complex (see scheme). This study demonstrates the potential of directuse of methanol as an alternative to formaldehyde for synthetic transformations.
