A novel series of graveolinine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as potential anti-Alzheimer agents. Compound 5f exhibited the best inhibitory activity for acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and had surprisingly potent inhibitory activity for butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), with IC values of 0.72 μM and 0.16 μM, respectively. The results from Lineweaver-Burk plot and molecular modeling study indicated non-competitive inhibition of AChE by compound 5f. In addition, these derivatives showed potent self-induced β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregation inhibition. Moreover, 5f didn't show obvious toxicity against PC12 and HepG2 cells at 50 μM. Finally, in vivo studies confirmed that 5f significantly ameliorates the cognitive performances of scopolamine-treated ICR mice. Therefore, these graveolinine derivatives should be thoroughly and systematically studied for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

Bipyridines and azaarenes are an important class of ligands that impart unique and tunable properties to transition metal complexes and catalysts. While some derivatives are commercially available, noncommercial analogues are often challenging to prepare and purify. Herein, we report a general nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction that converts cationic trimethylaminated bipyridines into a series of functionalized bipyridines.

The catalytic system generated from the cationic Ru-H complex [(CH)(PCy)(CO)RuH]BF () with 2,3,4,5-tetrachloro-1,2-benzoquinone () was found to be highly effective for promoting the deaminative coupling reaction of 2-aminoaryl aldehydes with branched amines to form 2-substituted quinoline products. The analogous deaminative coupling reaction of 2-aminoaryl ketones with branched amines led to the regioselective formation of 2,4-disubstituted quinoline products. A number of biologically active quinoline derivatives including graveolinine and a triplex DNA intercalator have been synthesized by using the catalytic method.

An efficient one-pot synthesis of 4-(1)-quinolones through an orthogonal engagement of diverse -haloaryl ynones with ammonia in the presence of Cu(I), involving tandem Michael addition and ArCsp-N coupling, is presented. The substrate scope of this convenient protocol, wherein ammonium carbonate acts as both an in situ ammonia source and a base toward diverse 2-substituted 4-(1)-quinolones, has been mapped and its efficacy validated through concise total synthesis of bioactive natural products pseudanes (IV, VII, VIII, and XII), graveoline, graveolinine, and waltherione F.

A series of graveoline and graveolinine derivatives were synthesized. The biological results showed that most of graveoline derivatives possessed higher cytotoxicity and better inhibitive effect against the adhesion and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) than graveolinine derivatives. Among these compounds, 8d was the most potent agents that also showed significant anti-angiogenesis activities in chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay.
