A series of novel 5-(substituted benzylidene)thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives was designed, and synthesized based on our previous studies. Also their activities were evaluated as competitive inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B). Compounds 6d-6g, 7b, 7c, 7e, 7j, 7k, 7m, 14b and 14e-14f showed potent inhibitory effects against PTP1B, and compound 7e, the most potent among the series, had an IC50 of 4.6 μM. Also a Surflex-Dock docking model of 7e was studied. Compound 7e showed a negative binding energy of -7.35 kcal/mol and a high affinity to PTP1B residues (Gly220, Ala217, Arg221, Asp181, Ser216, Cys215, Phe182, Gln262 and Ile219) in the active sites, indicating that it may stabilize the open form and generate tighter binding to the catalytic sites of PTP1B.

The C-3 and C-5 substituted 20-deoxyingenol monoesters are important active components in Euphorbiaceae plants. Nonetheless, their similar physical properties make them difficult to distinguish. The present study developed fast and efficient rules for identifying the esterification sites of 20-deoxyingenol based on a series of chemical syntheses of monoesters and literature research, utilizing NMR spectroscopy, optical rotation analysis, and chromatographic retention behavior.

Background/objectives: New drugs are required for the treatment of liver cancers and protozoal parasite infections. Analogs of the known anticancer active and antileishmanial 2',4',6'-trimethoxychalcone SU086 were prepared and investigated.
Methods: The chalcones were prepared according to the Claisen-Schmidt condensation protocol and analyzed.

[CuL(tmen)] is a sequence of four ternary mononuclear Schiff base copper(II) complexes that are derived from L-valine, suitable 5'-substituted-2'-hydroxyacetophenones (where the substituents are -Cl for L, -Me for L, -OMe for L, and -H for L), and tmen (where tmen-N,N,N',N' tetramethyl ethylenediamine). Without isolating the Schiff base ligand or producing any other intermediate products, all of the complexes were synthesised. These compounds were identified using elemental analysis, molar conductance, UV-Vis, FTIR, EPR, VSM-RT, and CD spectra.

Synthesis of 5-substituted 1-tetrazoles and reduction of a variety of nitro compounds presents a promising solution for the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries. However, the development of green catalysts with superior catalytic performance for this reaction remains a significant challenge. This research introduces a green protocol for the creation of ultrafine Cu(ii) metal immobilized on the surface of pectin hydrogel (HPEC), modified by a CoFeO/Pr-SOH magnetic nanocomposite, enabling the synthesis of tetrazoles and reduction of nitro compounds.

The pentafluorosulfanyl (SF-) group has been the subject of a surge of interest in the past decade, but there is still little practicality associated with its synthesis and installation. Herein is reported the first continuous flow synthesis of pentafluorosulfanyl chloride (SFCl), the most common reagent for the synthesis of SF-substituted compounds. The synthesis is based on inexpensive and easy-to-handle reagents: sulfur powder (S), trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA) and potassium fluoride (KF).
