A facile and efficient protocol has been developed for mild construction of fused pyrimidines via l-proline-catalyzed reaction of 4-hydroxy coumarins, aldehydes, and 2-aminobenzothiazoles/urea. The reaction has been carried out rapidly and efficiently in water under mild and metal-free conditions. Current etiquette has efficiently synthesized the heterocycles and avoids the use of hazardous solvents over conventional organic solvents. A plausible reaction mechanism has been established in this study. This study represents the first case in which l-proline as a homogeneous catalyst has been explored in the synthesis of fused pyrimidines in water in view of simple procedure and acceptable efficiency. This method gives the target product in excellent yield with ease of workup.

Synthesis of acenaphthylene-fused heteroarenes and polyoxygenated benzo[]fluoranthenes via a Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura/C-H arylation cascade.

Acenaphthylene-fused heteroarenes with a variety of five- and six-membered heterocycles such as thiophene, furan, benzofuran, pyrazole, pyridine and pyrimidine were synthesized via an efficient Pd-catalyzed reaction cascade in good to high yields (45-90%). This cascade involves an initial Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction between 1,8-dihalonaphthalenes and heteroarylboronic acids or esters, followed by an intramolecular C-H arylation under the same conditions to yield the final heterocyclic fluoranthene analogues. The method was further employed to access polyoxygenated benzo[]fluoranthenes, which are all structurally relevant to benzo[]fluoranthene-based fungal natural products.

Cancer, characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells potentially influencing almost all tissues in the body, is one of the most devastating and lethal diseases throughout the world. Chemotherapy is one of the principal approaches for cancer treatment, but multidrug resistance and severe side effects represent the main barriers to the success of therapy, creating a vital need to develop novel chemotherapeutic agents. The 1,2,3-triazole moiety can be conveniently constructed by "click chemistry" and could exert diverse noncovalent interactions with various enzymes in cancer cells.

The goal of this work was to synthesize new compounds for anticancer evaluation as a trial to obtain new antitumor agents with higher activity and fewer side effects. Therefore, the precursor 2,2'-(1,4-phenylenebis (thiazole-4,2-diyl))bis (3-(dimethylamino)acrylonitrile) was used to synthesize various azolopyrimidine derivatives connected to the thiazole moiety. Compounds -, including pyrazolopyrimidine, triazolopyrimidine, and others, were produced by reacting enaminonitrile with different -nucleophiles.

A ruthenium(II)-catalyzed direct C-H/C-H (4+2) annulation of 2-aryl-N-heterocycles such as 2-aryl-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones, 2-arylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines, 2-aryl-2H-indazoles and 2-arylquinolin-4(1H)-ones with vinylene carbonate has been described. This one-pot cascade strategy provided the diversely substituted fused-polyheterocycles such as 7H-benzo[h]pyrido[2,1-b]quinazolin-7-ones, naphtho[1',2':4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines, indazolo[2,3-a]quinolines and benzo[c]acridin-7(12H)-ones in moderate to excellent yields. The developed protocol exhibited a broad substrate scope with good functional group tolerance and acid/base-free conditions.

Article Synopsis
- The CRISPR-Cas9 system is utilized for gene therapy but faces challenges with packaging the Cas9 protein in viral vectors, limiting its clinical use.
- Researchers developed enhanced versions of base editors (enCjBEs and enCjABEs) using a smaller Cas9 protein (CjCas9) which showed improved editing efficiencies for converting specific DNA bases.
- New variants like SsenCjPE significantly increase prime editing efficiency and can be further improved by combining with other proteins, making them promising tools for both research and medical applications.
