Two new phenyl-sulfonyl-indole derivatives, namely, -{[3-bromo-1-(phenyl-sulfon-yl)-1-indol-2-yl]meth-yl}--(4-bromo-3-meth-oxy-phen-yl)benzene-sulfonamide, CHBrNOS, (), and ,-bis-{[3-bromo-1-(phenyl-sulfon-yl)-1-indol-2-yl]meth-yl}benzene-sulfonamide, CHBrNOS, (), reveal the impact of intra-molecular π-π inter-actions of the indole moieties as a factor not only governing the conformation of ,-bis-(1-indol-2-yl)meth-yl)amines, but also significantly influencing the crystal patterns. For , the crystal packing is dominated by C-H⋯π and π-π bonding, with a particular significance of mutual indole-indole inter-actions. In the case of , the mol-ecules adopt short intra-molecular π-π inter-actions between two nearly parallel indole ring systems [with the centroids of their pyrrole rings separated by 3.

Article Synopsis
  • The Diels-Alder reaction was performed using tetraaryl cyclopentadienones and benzo[]thiophene-,-dioxides in nitrobenzene under reflux conditions.
  • This led to the creation of fused phenanthrene derivatives through a process that involved eliminating SO from an intermediate and undergoing a 6π-electrocyclization.
  • The methodology proved effective for synthesizing various phenanthrene derivatives with yields ranging from good to moderate.

In this study, we present our preliminary findings on the synthesis of carbazole derivatives involving the Sonogashira coupling reaction of 2-(trimethylamino)methylindolyltriflates with aryl acetylenes followed by isomerization, thermal electrocyclization and 1,3-H shift, furnishing the respective di- and tri-substituted carbazoles.

This case report describes a rare and complex instance of urinary bladder herniation into the scrotal sac, complicated by intrascrotal perforation. This condition, primarily seen in elderly, obese men, poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The patient, an 83-year-old man with a history of obesity and chronic lower urinary tract symptoms, presented with acute scrotal pain and swelling.

Olivopontocerebellar degeneration (OPCD) primarily affects individuals in their mid to late adulthood, making its early onset in young adults, particularly postpartum women, a notable rarity. This case report describes OPCD in a 24-year-old female, underscoring the importance of considering neurodegenerative disorders in differential diagnoses even in younger patients. The unique presentation post childbirth adds to the sparse literature on the timing and triggers of neurodegenerative diseases in younger populations, especially in scenarios that might involve hormonal, vascular, or autoimmune shifts such as those occurring postpartum.
