99%) and enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee) using hybrid amide-based Cinchona alkaloids. Our method is characterized by low catalyst loading (0.5 mol %) and short reaction times. Moreover, the epoxidation process can be carried out in 10 cycles, without further catalyst addition to the reaction mixture. This methodology significantly enhance the scale of the process using very low catalyst loading

zileuton-hydroxycinnamic acid hybrids were synthesized and screened as 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibitors in stimulated HEK293 cells and polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL). Zileuton’s (1) benzo[b]thiophene and hydroxyurea subunits combined with hydroxycinnamic acid esters’ ester linkage and phenolic acid moieties were investigated. Compound 28, bearing zileuton’s (1) benzo[b]thiophene and sinapic acid phenethyl ester’s

A nickel complex of isoquinox promoted enantioselective conjugate arylation and heteroarylation of enones using aryl and heteroaryl halides directly. The reaction was successfully applied to stereoselective syntheses of ar-turmerone, chiral fragments of (+)-tolterodine and AZD5672. Mechanistically, experiments and calculations supported that an arylnickel(I) complex inserted to enones via an elementary
Substituted Benzothiophene or Benzofuran Derivatives as a Novel Class of Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 Up-Regulators: Synthesis, Structure−Activity Relationships, and Preventive Bone Loss Efficacies in Senescence Accelerated Mice (SAMP6) and Ovariectomized Rats
In this work, substituted benzothiophene and benzofuran compounds were found to be a new class of potential anabolic agents by enhancing BMP-2 expression. A series of benzothiophene and benzofuran derivatives have been synthesized, and their activities of up-regulating BMP-2 and bone loss prevention efficacies in SAMP6 mice and OVX rats have been studied. Benzothiophenes 1, 3, 14, 4a, 7a, 8a, and benzofuran analogue 2 showed higher BMP-2 up-regulation rates in vitro. Compound 8111 was found to significantly affect the bone formation rate of tested SAMP6 mice. Compound I showed an improved bone quality in SAMP6 mice and also showed activity in OVX rats. We have demonstrated that Substituted benzothiophene and benzofuran derivatives, especially compounds I and 8a, enhance BMP-2 expression in vitro and in vivo and stimulate bone formation and trabecular connectivity restoration ill vivo. The compounds represent potential leads in the development of a new class of anabolic agents.
