identified as a lead target structure for the development of particularly effective compounds targeting Burkitt's lymphoma (BL). OBJECTIVES The aims of the curent study were to synthesise a panel of nitrostyrene compounds and to evaluate their activity in Burkitt's lymphoma (BL). METHODS A panel of structurally varied compounds were designed and synthesised using Henry Knoevenagel condensation reactions.

Reactions of 2-(2-nitrovinyl)-1,4-benzoquinone with furans, indoles, and endocyclic enol ethers form angular fused heterocyclic quinoid ring systems. The reaction proceeds by a formal inverse electron-demand [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of the nitrovinylquinone and a double bond of the heterocycle. The initial quinoid cycloadducts can be readily tautomerized to hydroquinoid species, which may be dehydrogenated to fully aromatic quinones. In the case of furans, the tautomerized adducts may be ring-opened to give 6,7-di- or 5,6,7-tri-substituted-1,4-naphthalenediols. In the case of endocyclic enol ethers, formation of benzofuran products competes with [4 + 2] cycloaddition.

The nitrovinyl-substituted quinones 2-(2-nitrovinyl)-1,4-benzoquinone and 2-(2-nitrovinyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone react with a variety of cyclic and acyclic enol ethers via two competing pathways. In one pathway, the nitrovinylquinone acts as an inverse electron-demand [4 + 2] diene. This gives quinoid carbocycles, which readily tautomerize to their hydroquinone form. The other pathway involves conjugate
Synthesis of chiral [2,3]-fused indolines through enantioselective dearomatization inverse-electron-demand Diels–Alder reaction/oxidation of indoles with 2-(2-nitrovinyl)-1,4-benzoquinone
Enantioselectivedearomatization inverse-electron-demand Diels–Alder reaction/oxidation of indoles with 2-(2-nitrovinyl)-1,4-benzoquinone was realised using a chiral bisoxazoline/zinc complex as a catalyst. This transformation allowed for the synthesis of enantioenriched six-membered [2,3]-fused indolines (up to 99% yield and 88% ee).
