Published: October 2022

A series of -stereogenic chiral phosphorus acids (CPAs) were synthesized to determine the requirements for efficient asymmetric organocatalysis. In order to eliminate the need for -symmetry in common CPAs, various scaffolds containing -symmetrical thiophosphorus acids were chosen. These new compounds were synthesized and evaluated in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of 2-phenylquinoline. Although the efficacy of the thiophosphorus acids was disappointing for this reaction, the work should be useful for developing structural design elements.

Evaluation and Development of Methodologies for the Synthesis of Thiophosphinic Acids.

Thiophosphorus acids RRP(S)OH constitute an important class of organophosphorus compounds, in which the phosphorus atom is intrinsically chiral if R ≠ R. In connection with a project aimed at the preparation of chiral thiophosphorus acids, various available literature methods were considered, but few fit the requirement of odorless reagents. Herein, the results of our studies on the synthesis of thiophosphinic acids are reported.

Discovery of medium ring thiophosphorus based heterocycles as antiproliferative agents.

Hydrogen sulfide (HS) has been investigated for its potential in therapy. Recently, we reported novel HS donor molecules based on a thiophosphorus core, which slowly release HS and have improved anti-proliferative activity in cancer cell lines compared to the most widely studied HS donor GYY4137 (1). Herein, we have prepared new thiophosphorus organic HS donors with different ring sizes and evaluated them in two solid tumor cell lines and one normal cell line.

Potential carcinogenicity predicted by computational toxicity evaluation of thiophosphate pesticides using QSTR/QSCarciAR model.

This study presents in silico prediction of toxic activities and carcinogenicity, represented by the potential carcinogenicity DSSTox/DBS, based on vector regression with a new Kernel activity, and correlating the predicted toxicity values through a QSAR model, namely: QSTR/QSCarciAR (quantitative structure toxicity relationship/quantitative structure carcinogenicity-activity relationship) described by 2D, 3D descriptors and biological descriptors. The results showed a connection between carcinogenicity (compared to the structure of a compound) and toxicity, as a basis for future studies on this subject, but each prediction is based on structurally similar compounds and the reactivation of the substructures of these compounds.

A reproducible method for monitoring traces of cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitors in acetonitrile extracts from fruits and vegetables is described. The method is based on hypochlorite oxidation and ChE inhibition assay. Four common representative samples of produce were selected from a supermarket to investigate the effect of different matrices on pesticides recoveries and assay precision.
