The rising application of conventional synthetic insecticides develops resistant populations of houseflies; therefore, using new chemical agents with different modes of action is essential to overcome this problem. The mechanical grinding technique was used as a green method, to synthesize the tested compounds because it is a more facile work-up and high-yield economy, simplicity and solvent-free than conventional thermal technique. Various methods were employed to synthesize new heterocycles containing anthracene (a photosensitizing agent) from chalcone 3, a building block material such as the preparation of the pyrazole derivatives 4-7, isoxazole derivative 8, pyrimidines 9-11, and oxirane derivative 12.

In this study, four series of new pyrazolo[3,4-]pyrimidine derivatives were designed and synthesized with both green and conventional methods. All the synthesized candidates were chemically confirmed using spectroscopic methods, and the DFT of the reaction mechanism was illustrated. The anti-proliferative activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated against NCI 60 cancer cell lines.

A novel series of ethylidenehydrazineylthiazol-4(5H)-ones were synthesized using various eco-friendly one-pot multicomponent synthetic techniques. The anticancer activity of compounds (4a-m) was tested against 11 cancer cell lines. While the IC of all compounds was evaluated against the most sensitive cell lines (MDA-MB-468 and FaDu).

A series of novel 1,3,4-thiadiazoles was synthesized the reaction of -(5-(2-cyanoacetamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzamide (3) with different carbon electrophiles and evaluated as potential anticancer agents. The chemical structures of these derivatives were fully elucidated using various spectral and elemental analyses. Out of 24 new thiadiazoles, derivatives 4, 6b, 7a, 7d, and 19 have significant antiproliferative activity.

Different series of annulated pyrazole derivatives were designed, synthesized via both green and traditional methods, and structurally characterized. In vitro uPA evaluation, antiproliferative activities and DNA binding damage was studied in this work. Thus, all the synthesized compounds were evaluated against three types of cancer cell lines; HepG-2, HCT-116, and MCF-7 cancer cell lines in addition to normal cell line WI38.

The classical Reformatsky reaction, initially described in 1887, is considered one of the most useful ways of forming C-C bonds. The target of this work includes improving the Reformatsky reaction between aroyl isothiocyanates and α-haloesters using metallic zinc to form β-thioxoesters (3-11). In this procedure, a new metal-mediated carbon-carbon linkage is formed with the formation of an organozinc halide and decomposition due to the presence of dilute acid, affording a good yield of the desired product conventional techniques and ball milling.
