A facile and efficient quinoline-fused 4-benzo[][1,4]oxazine has been successfully fabricated through an oxidative -arylation, Pd-catalyzed double -arylation of 4-hydroxyquinoline derivatives and trivalent aryl iodides. Diversified fused heterocycles could be easily constructed in overall high isolated yields with great substrate scope. The afforded heteroatom-"doped" phenoxazine demonstrated high molar absorptivities and excellent stability and redox reversibility. These phenoxazine analogues therefore could be utilized as promising catalysts in the photoredox catalyzed perfluoroalkylation of heteroarenes and photopromoted radical polymerization (OATRP).

Specific cancer therapy remains a problem to be solved. Breast and colorectal cancer are among the cancers with the highest prevalence and mortality rates. Although there are some therapeutic options, there are still few effective agents for those cancers, which constitutes a clinical problem that requires further research efforts.

Ribosomal frameshifting (RFS) at the slippery site of SARS-CoV-2 RNA is essential for the biosynthesis of the viral replication machinery. It requires the formation of a pseudoknot (PK) structure near the slippery site and can be inhibited by PK-disrupting oligonucleotide-based antivirals. We obtained and compared three types of such antiviral candidates, namely locked nucleic acids (LNA), LNA-DNA gapmers, and G-clamp-containing phosphorothioates (CPSs) complementary to PK stems.

Successful syntheses of chlorophosphoramidate morpholino monomers containing tricyclic cytosine analogs phenoxazine, G-clamp, and G-clamp were accomplished. These modified monomers were incorporated into 12-mer oligonucleotides using trityl-chemistry by an automated synthesizer. The resulting phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers, containing a single G-clamp, demonstrated notably higher affinity for complementary RNA and DNA compared to the unmodified oligomers under neutral and acidic conditions.

Pseudo-complementary oligonucleotides contain artificial nucleobases designed to reduce duplex formation in the pseudo-complementary pair without compromising duplex formation to targeted (complementary) oligomers. The development of a pseudo-complementary A:T base pair, U:D, was important in achieving dsDNA invasion. Herein, we report pseudo-complementary analogues of the G:C base pair leveraged on steric and electrostatic repulsion between the cationic phenoxazine analogue of cytosine (G-clamp, C) and N-7 methyl guanine (G), which is also cationic.
