Trans-(1R*,2R*,3R*)-Ethyl 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-methylcyclopropane-1-carboxylate (6) and its cis isomer 7 were obtained from the reaction of the methyl isoeugenol (5) with ethyl diazoacetate. The reduction and bromination reactions of the ester 6 and 7 together with the hydrolysis of all esters were carried out. Opening ring of cyclopropane was observed in the reaction of 7 with bromine. The opening of cyclopropane ring with COOR and synthesis of esters, alcohols and acids (6-26) are new. These obtained bromophenol derivatives (6-26) were effective inhibitors of the cytosolic carbonic anhydrase I and II isoforms (hCA I and II) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzymes with Ki values in the range of 7.8 ± 0.9-58.3 ± 10.3 nM for hCA I, 43.1 ± 16.7-150.2 ± 24.1 nM for hCA II, and 159.6 ± 21.9-924.2 ± 104.8 nM for AChE, respectively. Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are the most popular drugs applied in the treatment of diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, senile dementia, and ataxia, among others.

Methoxylated polybrominated diphenyl ethers (MeO-BDEs) are a class of environmentally relevant halogenated natural products. The two most relevant isomers, 2'-MeO-BDE 68 and 6-MeO-BDE 47, were repeatedly detected at levels comparable with persistent organic pollutants in marine environmental and food samples. MeO-BDEs were suspected to be biosynthesized by bromoperoxidases through the merging of two bromophenol units, three of which (2,4-dibromophenol, 2,6-dibromophenol and 2,4,6-tribromophenol) are abundant in marine environments, followed by O-methylation to give MeO-BDEs.

Deep learning-based generative adversarial network (GAN) frameworks have recently been developed to expedite the drug discovery process. These models generate novel molecules from scratch and validate them through molecular docking simulation to identify the most promising candidates for a given drug target. In this study, the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (M) was selected as the drug target.

A condensation reaction was carried out between 4-nitro-ortho-phenylenediamine and 5-bromosalicyaldehyde to synthesize a novel Schiff base ligand 2,2'-[(1E,1'E)-(4-nitro-1,2-phenylene) bis (azaneylylidene) bis (methaneylylidene)] bis (4-bromophenol) [NB] in the current investigation. This was followed by the synthesis of metallic complexes comprising the Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) transition metal ions. A hexadentate environment encircling metal complexes was corroborated by the results of varied spectroscopic methods that were employed to unravel the structure of the ligand and metal complexes.

Macroalgae are known as abundant sources of phytochemicals, which offer a plethora of beneficial biological properties. Besides being the most notable classes of compounds found in macroalgae, phlorotannins, bromophenols, and terpenoids comprise some of the most relevant for their biological properties. Phlorotannins, mainly prevalent in brown algae and structurally characterized as complex polyphenolic compounds derived from phloroglucinol units, possess robust antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and cytotoxic activities, modulated by factors such as the degree of polymerization and environmental conditions.

The screening of 166 extracts from tropical marine organisms (invertebrates, macroalgae) and 3 cyclolipopeptides from microorganisms against yeast prions highlighted the potential of Verongiida sponges to prevent the propagation of prions. We isolated the known compounds purealidin Q (), aplysamine-2 (), pseudoceratinine A (), aerophobin-2 (), aplysamine-1 (), and pseudoceratinine B () for the first time from the Wallisian sponge . We then tested compounds - and sixteen other bromotyrosine and bromophenol derivatives previously isolated from Verongiida sponges against yeast prions, demonstrating the potential of -, , , aplyzanzine C (), purealidin A (), psammaplysenes D () and F (), anomoian F (), and N,N-dimethyldibromotyramine ().
