Purpose: To investigate cyclodextrin-mediated solubilization and physical stabilization of novel 1-indanone thiosemicarbazone (TSC) candidate drugs that display extremely high self-aggregation and precipitation tendency in water.

Methods: TSC/CD complexes were produced by co-solvent method, and TSC/CD phase-solubility diagrams were obtained by plotting TSC concentration as a function of increasing CD concentration. Size, size distribution, and zeta-potential of the different TSC/CD complexes and aggregates were fully characterized by dynamic light scattering. The morphology of the structures was visualized by atomic force microscopy.

Results: Results indicated the formation of Type A inclusion complexes; the solubility of different TSCs was enhanced up to 215 times. The study of physical stability revealed that, as opposed to free TSCs that self-aggregate, crystallize, and precipitate in water very rapidly, complexed TSCs remain in solution for at least 1 week. On the other hand, a gradual size growth was observed. This phenomenon stemmed from the self-aggregation of the TSC/CD complex.

Conclusions: 1-indanone TSC/CD inclusion complexes improved aqueous solubility and physical stability of these new drug candidates and constitute a promising technological approach towards evaluation of their activity against the viruses hepatitis B and C.

An efficient and practical organocatalyzed asymmetric Mannich/cyclization tandem reaction strategy of 2-benzothiazolimines and 2-isothiocyanato-1-indanones was developed, and novel spirocyclic compounds containing benzothiazolimine and indanone scaffolds were obtained. This chiral thiourea-catalyzed Mannich/cyclization tandem reaction offers chiral spirocyclic compounds with continuous tertiary and quaternary stereocenters in good to high yields (up to 90%) with excellent diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr) and enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee) at -18 °C. Additionally, the scaled-up synthesis was also performed with retained yield and stereoselectivity, and a reaction mechanism was also proposed.

Many efforts have been made to enrich the variety of BF complexes because of their excellent optical properties. However, the investigation on seven-membered ring N, O-chelated BF complexes is rare due to their instability with the removal of BF unit. Herein, a novel seven-membered ring N, O-chelated BF complexes (BOPYOs) with dual-state emission has been synthesized via a facile method.

Background: Vegetable viruses are difficult to prevent and control in the field, causing massive economic losses of agricultural production in the world. A new natural product-based antiviral agent would be an effective means to control viral diseases. As a class of natural products, 1-indanones present various pharmacologically actives, while their application in agriculture remains to be found.

Herein, we report a novel and unexpected metal-free oxygenation of 2,3-diphenyl-1-indenones, under an oxygen atmosphere (air), to either 2,3-epoxy-2,3-diphenyl-1-indenone or 2-hydroxy-2,3-diphenyl-1-indanone, depending on the conditions. Several bioactive epoxy indenones and one-pot α-hydroxy indanones (α-acyloin) were synthesized from 2,3-diaryl dihydroindanone and 2,3-diarylindenone, respectively. A plausible reaction mechanism is also proposed, where oxygenation would take place at the α-position and further proton abstraction from the β-position leads to epoxy indenone derivatives.
