The reaction of a copper complex bearing iminosemiquinone ligands with a CF3(+) source provides an unprecedented Cu(II)-CF3 complex through ligand-based oxidation. Reactivity of this complex leads to ...nucleophilic trifluoromethylation of the ligand, suggesting an electronic interplay that results in a formal umpolung of the initial CF3(+).

A short, convergent synthesis of the mushroom pigment norbadione A is described. The construction of an appropriately substituted naphtholactone intermediate involved a regioselective Diels−Alder ...reaction between a bis(triisopropylsilyloxy)diene and 2,6-dichlorobenzo-1,4-quinone. A double Suzuki−Miyaura cross-coupling between a diboronate and two identical enol triflates was another key feature of the synthesis.
A recently reported high-throughput screening strategy has been applied to the rapid selection of new water-soluble antioxidants that display strong protective activities. Based on a competitive ...immunoassay, a triple-screening procedure was used to evaluate the ability of different compounds to protect thymidine under different oxidative stresses. The pro-oxidant effect of norbadione A in the presence of iron was observed, while some pulvinic acid derivatives proved strongly protective during γ radiolysis, UV irradiation, and Fenton-like oxidation.
We present a new high-throughput screening method for the selection of powerful water-soluble antiradiation compounds. This method, which uses conventional immunoassay techniques, allowed the ...capacity of a given compound to protect thymidine from irradiation to be evaluated. By applying this assay to an antioxidant library, we showed for the first time that norbadione A, a well-known mushroom pigment, has pronounced atypical antiradiation properties.

Amino-substituted biphenyls were obtained by Suzuki cross-coupling of 2,6-dibromoaniline with a phenylboronic acid (substituted with Me, NO(2), OH, OMe or Cl) preferably assisted by microwave ...irradiation. Conversion of the amino group into a thiol preceded a base-induced intramolecular substitution, also facilitated by microwave heating, to generate the second C-S bond of the target dibenzothiophene. The 1-, 2-, 3- or 4-substituted 6-halodibenzothiophenes obtained were subjected to a palladium-mediated coupling with 2-morpholin-4-yl-8-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-4H-chromen-4-one to give the respective 6-, 7-, 8- or 9-substituted dibenzothiophen-4-ylchromenones. These compounds were evaluated as inhibitors of DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) and compared to the parent 8-(dibenzob,dthiophen-4-yl)-2-morpholin-4-yl-4H-chromen-4-one. Notably, derivatives bearing hydroxy or methoxy substituents at C-8 or C-9 retained activity, whereas substitution at C-7 lowered activity. Substitution with chloro at C-6 was not detrimental to activity, but a chloro group at C-7 or C-8 reduced potency. The data indicate permissive elaboration of hydroxyl at C-8 or C-9, enabling the possibility of improved pharmaceutical properties, whilst retaining potency against DNA-PK.

A versatile new method for the preparation of NHC boranes starting from two stable, readily available reactants―an heterocyclic salt and an amine or phosphine−borane―is reported. It uses a Lewis base ...exchange at boron and provides easy access to new NHC boranes, in particular B-substituted borane ones.
