A direct electrochemical-mediated CH bromination strategy of electron-rich compound is established using LiBr as a “Br” source under transition metal-free and oxidant-free catalysis condition. This method is performed in a green and sustainable system. A wide range of electron-rich compounds were found to be compatible, providing the corresponding products with moderate yields.
Coumarin as Attractive Casein Kinase 2 (CK2) Inhibitor Scaffold: An Integrate Approach To Elucidate the Putative Binding Motif and Explain Structure–Activity Relationships
Casein kinase 2 (CK2) is an ubiquitous, essential, and highly pleiotropic protein kinase whose abnormally high constitutive activity is suspected to underlie its pathogenic potential in neoplasia and other diseases. Recently, using different virtual screening approaches, we have identified several novel CK2 inhibitors. In particular, we have discovered that coumarin moiety can be considered an attractive CK2 inhibitor scaffold. In the present work, we have synthetized and tested a small library of coumarins (more than 60), rationalizing the observed structure-activity relationship. Moreover, the most promising inhibitor, 3,8-dibromo-7-hydroxy-4-methylchromen-2-one (DBC), has been also crystallized in complex with CK2, and the experimental binding mode has been used to derive a linear interaction energy (LIE) model.
