Exposure of a drug to UV irradiation could affect its physicochemical properties. Hence, photostability testing is essential for topically administered drugs. Tazarotene, a receptor-selective, third-generation retinoid, is commonly used to treat acne vulgaris and psoriasis.

A highly efficient and convenient protocol was developed to access 2-amino-4-benzothiopyran-4-ones through a process of conjugated addition-elimination. The sulfinyl group was proved to be the optimum leaving group by thorough investigations on the elimination of sulfide, sulfinyl, and sulfonyl groups at the 2-position of benzothiopyranone. Most 2-aminobenzothiopyranones were obtained in good to excellent yields under refluxing in isopropanol within 36 h.

A metal-free I/TBHP induced highly atom economic and operationally simple oxidative cross-coupling reaction has been developed for the direct synthesis of sulfenamides/sulfanes/disulfides from the reaction of 4-hydroxydithiocoumarin and amines/thiols. The novelties of the present protocol are unprecedented S-C bond formation in addition to S-N and S-S bonds, shorter reaction time, mild and environmentally benign reaction conditions, functional group tolerance and moderate to excellent yields. Moreover, the four newly synthesized compounds namely 4q, 6d, 6e and 7a exhibit anti-proliferative activity against the breast cancer cell line MCF7, and may be lead molecules for future drug development.

This study reports the synthesis of a number of 1- and 2-phenyl derivatives of the 1,4-dihydrobenzothiopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazole nucleus, which were obtained by the reaction of the versatile 7-substituted 2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxymethylene-4H-1-benzothiopyran-4-ones with hydrazine and substituted phenylhydrazines. The antiproliferative activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated by an in vitro assay on human tumor cell lines (HL-60 and HeLa) and showed a significant capacity of the 7-methoxy-substituted benzothiopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazoles 3b-d, carrying the pendant phenyl group in the 1-position, to inhibit cell growth. Investigation of the mechanism of action indicated the induction of the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) as the molecular event responsible for the inhibition of cell growth.

Condensation of nitrobenzaldehydes 3 and alpha-[o-(p-methoxybenzylthio)benzoyl] sulfoxide 4 gave alpha-sulfinyl enones 5. Treatment of 5 with formic acid caused cyclization followed by debenzylation to afford 3-(methylsulfinyl)thioflavanones 6. Double-bond formation with elimination of methanesulfenic acid was performed by refluxing 6 in benzene, and, finally, the nitro group of 2-phenyl-4H-1-benzothiopyran-4-one (thioflavones) 7 was reduced with tin in tetrafluoroboric acid.
