Synthesis and cytotoxic activities of 32 benzhydrylpiperazine derivatives with carboxamide and thioamide moieties were reported. In vitro cytotoxic activities of compounds were screened against hepatocellular (HUH-7), breast (MCF-7) and colorectal (HCT-116) cancer cell lines by sulphorhodamine B assay. In general, 4-chlorobenzhydrylpiperazine derivatives were more cytotoxic than other compounds. In addition, thioamide derivatives (6a-g) have higher growth inhibition than their carboxamide analogs.

Malaria continues to be a significant burden, particularly in Africa, which accounts for 95% of malaria deaths worldwide. Despite advances in malaria treatments, malaria eradication is hampered by insecticide and antimalarial drug resistance. Consequently, the need to discover new antimalarial lead compounds remains urgent.

Invited for the cover of this issue are Celine Nieuwland and Célia Fonseca Guerra of the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. The image depicts how the increasing atom size of the chalcogen from O to S to Se elongates the carbon-chalcogen bond in amides due to the increase in the steric Pauli repulsion and thereby enhances the amide hydrogen-bond donor strength.

The amino groups of thio- and selenoamides can act as stronger hydrogen-bond donors than of carboxamides, despite the lower electronegativity of S and Se. This phenomenon has been experimentally explored, particularly in organocatalysis, but a sound electronic explanation is lacking. Our quantum chemical investigations show that the NH groups in thio- and selenoamides are more positively charged than in carboxamides.

This study presents an enantioselective oxidative cyclization of -allyl carboxamides via a chiral triazole-substituted iodoarene catalyst. The method allows the synthesis of highly enantioenriched oxazolines and oxazines, with yields of up to 94% and enantioselectivities of up to 98% ee. Quaternary stereocenters can be constructed and, besides -allyl amides, the corresponding thioamides and imideamides are well tolerated as substrates, giving rise to a plethora of chiral 5-membered -heterocycles.
