Glucosinolates and Their Hydrolytic Derivatives: Promising Phytochemicals With Anticancer Potential.
Phytother Res

Recent research has increasingly focused on phytochemicals as promising anticancer agents, with glucosinolates (GSLs) and their hydrolytic derivatives playing a central role. These sulfur-containing compounds, found in plants of the Brassicales order, are converted by myrosinase enzymes into biologically active products, primarily isothiocyanates (ITCs) and indoles, which exhibit significant anticancer properties. Indole-3-carbinol, diindolylmethane, sulforaphane (SFN), phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), benzyl isothiocyanate, and allyl isothiocyanate have shown potent anticancer effects in animal models, particularly in breast, prostate, lung, melanoma, bladder, hepatoma, and gastrointestinal cancers.

Ni-catalyzed multicomponent cross-couplings have emerged as a powerful strategy for efficiently constructing complex molecular architectures from a diverse array of organic halides. Despite its potential, selectively forming multiple chemical bonds in a single operation, particularly in the realm of cross-electrophile coupling catalysis, remains a significant challenge. In this study, we have developed a consecutive open-shell reductive Ni catalysis, enabling the formation of two geminal C(sp)-C(sp) bonds from two stereoelectronically similar C(sp)-I reactants in conjunction with a methylene electrophile.

Background: A recent increase in severe fever with thrombocytopaenia syndrome (SFTS) virus cases in Korea has been observed. This virus attacks humans and animals, and no drug is available for its treatment. This study is investigating potential control measures targeting the causative agent, Haemaphysalis longicornis.

A total synthesis of javaberine A was achieved through a lithium amide-mediated intramolecular hydroamination of an N-allyl aminoalkene. The desired hydroamination was accomplished using an excess of i-PrNH with a substoichiometric amount of n-BuLi. Using an excess of both n-BuLi and i-PrNH led to tandem cyclization, however, resulting in the construction of a tricyclic structure through the formation of one C-N and two C-C bonds in a single operation.

Catalytic asymmetric α-alkylation of simple carboxylic acid derivatives is a challenging issue due to the difficulties in achieving high catalytic efficiency and controlling the enantioselectivity. Herein, by using a copper(I)-()-DTBM-SEGPHOS complex as a catalyst and 2-acylimidazoles as pronucleophiles, a general method for the catalytic asymmetric α-alkylation of simple carboxylic acid derivatives is accomplished. Various alkyl electrophiles, including allyl bromides, benzyl bromides, propargyl bromide, and unactivated alkyl sulfonates, serve as efficient alkylation reagents.
