Herein, a novel route to atropisomeric -aryl quinolones with low rotational barriers is demonstrated, leveraging a dual photochemical/organocatalytic approach to the required ring closure in up to 94% yield and up to >99% ee. The use of a continuous flow system allows for impurity suppression and enables rapid scale-up to a decagram scale.

A cascade transformation of C2-quaternary indoxyls leading to an efficient assembly of complex (dihydro)indolo[1,2-]quinolin-5-one ring systems is reported. The method involves the gram-scale preparation of 2-(2-aryl-3-oxoindolin-2-yl)-2-phenylacetonitriles which are then converted with methyl ketones to the corresponding 2-(2-oxo-2-aryl(alkyl)ethyl)-2-phenylindolin-3-ones. The latter can either be isolated with good yields (75-96%) or, in the case of -nitroacetophenone, used for further base-assisted intramolecular SAr cyclization resulting in indoxyl-fused quinolone-4 hybrids (up to 95%).

For decades, the synthesis of 2-quinolones, a crucial structural motif in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, has relied heavily on costly noble metal complexes and structurally complex ligands. Despite considerable efforts from synthetic chemists, a mild, metal-free, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective approach has remained elusive. This study introduces a robust, metal-free synthetic platform that leverages an innovative organoiodine-catalyzed electrophilic arene C(sp)-H amination strategy to efficiently produce a wide range of new and modifiable 2-quinolones.

P. aeruginosa employs specific quorum sensing (QS) mechanisms to orchestrate biofilm formation, enhancing resistance to host defences. In physiological conditions, QS molecules permeate the lung environment and cellular membrane to reach the cytoplasmic Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) that is pivotal for activating the immune response against infection.

Article Synopsis
- Dovitinib (DVB) is a newly FDA-approved oral medication aimed at treating advanced juvenile solid tumors like osteosarcoma and has received permission for clinical trials by Oncoheroes as of September 2023.
- A novel ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method was developed to measure DVB levels in human liver microsomes, adhering to FDA bioanalytical validation standards.
- The method demonstrated good accuracy, with inter-day precision ranging from -0.56% to 9.33% and intra-day precision from 0.28% to 7.28%, alongside a low limit of quantification of 1 ng/mL, confirming its ecological sustainability and
Recent synthetic strategies for the functionalization of fused bicyclic heteroaromatics using organo-Li, -Mg and -Zn reagents.

This review highlights the use of functionalized organo-Li, -Mg and -Zn reagents for the construction and selective functionalization of 5- and 6-membered fused bicyclic heteroaromatics. Special attention is given to the discussion of advanced syntheses for the preparation of highly functionalized heteroaromatic scaffolds, including quinolines, naphthyridines, indoles, benzofurans, benzothiophenes, benzoxazoles, benzothiazoles, benzopyrimidines, anthranils, thienothiophenes, purine coumarins, chromones, quinolones and phthalazines and their fused heterocyclic derivatives. The organometallic reagents used for the desired functionalizations of these scaffolds are generally prepared using the following methods: (i) through directed selective metalation reactions (DoM), (ii) by means of halogen/metal exchange reactions, (iii) through oxidative metal insertions (Li, Mg, Zn), and (iv) by transmetalation reactions (organo-Li and Mg transmetalations with ZnCl or ZnO(Piv)).
