Background: Compounds containing furo[3,2-b]pyridine framework have shown interesting pharmacological properties, including anticancer activities. Though these compounds are generally synthesized via the heteroannulation processes involving acetylenic derivatives, some of them are complex.

Objective: The study aimed to explore a series of 2-substituted furo[3,2-b]pyridines for their cytotoxic properties against cancer cell lines in vitro.

Background: The 3,4-diyne substituted isocoumarins have been designed, synthesized and explored as potential anti-proliferative agents.

Method: Ultrasound assisted synthesis of these compounds was carried out by using a three-step method involving (i) Pd/C-Cu catalyzed cross-coupling between the methyl 2-iodobenzoate and buta- 1,3-diynylbenzene followed by (ii) I2-mediated electrophilic cyclization of the resultant 2-(alk-1- ynyl)benzoate ester and (iii) subsequent alkynylation of 4-iodo-3-(phenylethynyl)-isocoumarin under Pd/C-Cu catalysis.

Conclusion: The synthesized compounds showed promising growth inhibition when tested against MDA-MB 231 and K562 cancer cell lines.

A series of 3-(hetero)aryl substituted 3-[(prop-2-ynyloxy)(thiophen-2-yl)methyl]pyridine derivatives were designed as potential anticancer agents. These compounds were conveniently prepared by using Pd/C-Cu mediated Sonogashira type coupling as a key step. Many of these compounds were found to be promising when tested for their in vitro anti-proliferative properties against six cancer cell lines.

Novel N-indolylmethyl substituted spiroindoline-3,2'-quinazolines were designed as potential inhibitiors of SIRT1. These compounds were synthesized in good yields by using Pd/C-Cu mediated coupling-cyclization strategy as a key step involving the reaction of 1-(prop-2-ynyl)-1'H-spiro[indoline-3,2'-quinazoline]-2,4'(3'H)-dione with 2-iodoanilides. Some of the compounds synthesized have shown encouraging inhibition of Sir 2 protein (a yeast homologue of mammalian SIRT1) in vitro and three of them showed dose dependent inhibition of Sir 2.

The design and synthesis of 4-alkynyl pyrazole derivatives has led to the identification of new class of PDE4 inhibitors. All these compounds were accessed for the first time via a facile Pd/C-CuI-PPh(3) mediated C-C bond forming reaction between an appropriate pyrazole iodide and various terminal alkynes. In vitro PDE4B inhibitory properties and molecular modeling studies of some of the compounds synthesized indicated that 4-alkynyl pyrazole could be a promising template for the discovery of novel PDE4 inhibitors.
