Human Carbonic Anhydrases (hCA) are enzymes that contribute to cancer's development and progression. Isoforms IX and XII have been identified as potential anticancer targets, and, more specifically, hCA IX is overexpressed in hypoxic tumor cells, where it plays an important role in reprogramming the metabolism. With the aim to find new inhibitors towards IX and XII isoforms, the hybridization of the privileged scaffolds isatin, dihydrothiazole, and benzenesulfonamide was investigated in order to explore how it may affect the activity and selectivity of the hCA isoforms.

This review presents the latest progress in photochemical and electrochemical reactions involving isatins. Isatin and its functionalized scaffolds , oxindoles, spirooxindoles, and quinolines are privileged heterocycles as they are largely present in several agrochemical, natural products, and pharmaceuticals. Thus, the functionalization of isatins using sustainable approaches, , electro- and photochemical methods is of recent research interest worldwide.

In an effort to support the global fight against tuberculosis (TB), which is widely recognized as the most lethal infectious disease worldwide, we present the design and synthesis of new benzo[b]thiophene-based hybrids as promising candidates for the management of multidrug-resistant (MDR)/extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The isatin motif was incorporated into the target hybrids as it represents a privileged scaffold in antitubercular drug discovery. Since lipophilicity plays a pivotal role in the anti-TB agents' activity, the lipophilicity of the target hybrids was manipulated via the development of two series of N-1 methyl and N-1 benzyl substituted isatins (6a-h and 9a-h, respectively).

Carbohydrates are a basic structural component that are indispensable to all cellular processes. In addition to being employed as chiral starting materials in the synthesis of a variety of natural products, carbohydrates are recognized as naturally occurring molecules having an enormous variety of functional, stereochemical, and structural properties. The understanding and biological roles of carbohydrate derived molecules can be greatly improved by selectively synthesizing functional carbohydrates through incorporating them with privileged scaffolds.
