Investigations into fruit and vegetable processing residues (FVPRs) offer huge opportunities to discover novel therapeutics against many diseases. In this study, detailed investigation of Garcinia mangostana fruit peel extract led to the isolation and identification of ten known compounds (1-10). Further, a new series of α-mangostin derived sulphonyl piperzines, aryl alkynes and 1,2,3-triazole derivatives were synthesized using Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cyclo-addition reaction ("click" chemistry).

MMP-2 overexpression is strongly related to several diseases including cancer. However, none of the MMP-2 inhibitors have been marketed as drug candidates due to various adverse effects. Here, a set of sulphonyl pyrrolidines was subjected to validation of molecular modelling followed by binding mode analysis to explore the crucial structural features required for the discovery of promising MMP-2 inhibitors.

N-Functionalized C-fluoroalkyl amidines are attracting great attention due to their potential in pharmaceuticals. Herein, we report a Pd-catalyzed tandem reaction of azide with isonitrile and fluoroalkylsilane via a carbodiimide intermediate, providing facile access to N-functionalized C-fluoroalkyl amidines. This protocol offers an approach toward not only N-sulphonyl, N-phosphoryl, N-acyl, and N-aryl but also C-CF, CF, and CFH amidines with a broad substrate scope.

Bacterial oral diseases are chronic, and, therefore, require appropriate treatment, which involves various forms of administration and dosing of the drug. However, multimicrobial resistance is an increasing issue, which affects the global health system. In the present study, a commercial amphiphilic copolymer, Pluronic F127, was used for the encapsulation of 1-(5'-nitrobenzimidazole-2'-yl-sulphonyl-acetyl)-4-aryl-thiosemicarbazide, which is an original active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) previously synthesized and characterized by our group, at different copolymer/API weight ratios.
