Expanding the chemical space of aryloxy-naphthoquinones as potential anti-Chagasic agents: synthesis and trypanosomicidal activity

Nohemi A. Becerra et al.

Summary: By synthesizing and evaluating nine derivatives of aryloxy-naphthoquinones, we found high activity against epimastigote forms of T. cruzi and better potency results for trypomastigote forms compared to the reference drug benznidazole. Additionally, two compounds showed high selectivity against different forms of the parasite.

High regioselectivity in the amination reaction of isoquinolinequinone derivatives using conceptual DFT and NCI analysis

S. Kenouche et al.

Summary: DFT-derived reactivity descriptors and NCI analysis were used to rationalize regioselectivity in the amination reaction of isoquinolinequinone derivatives. NPA was found to be the most efficient electronic population scheme for this purpose, while NCI study with RDG revealed weak interactions and their stabilities. Steric hindrance and differences in local reactivity were identified as key elements explaining the high regioselectivity exhibited by the amination reaction.

DFT, NBO, HOMO-LUMO, NCI, stability, Fukui function and hole-Electron analyses of tolcapone

Antony Danish Isravel et al.

Summary: Tolcapone is a stable molecule with hydrogen bond donor and acceptor system, which enhances its stability. Various analyses suggest that the molecule is more prone to nucleophilic attack and exhibits steric effect, Van der Waals force, and hydrogen bond interactions.

Natural Quinone Dyes: A Review on Structure, Extraction Techniques, Analysis and Application Potential

Benson Dulo et al.

Summary: Synthetic dyes are widely used in industry, but efforts are being made to find safer and more sustainable alternatives such as natural quinones. These natural compounds show promise as they have better dyeability, stability, and environmental safety compared to other natural dyes, and can potentially replace synthetic dyes in various applications.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Benzo[f]indole-4,9-diones N-Linked to Carbohydrate Chains as New Type of Antitumor Agents

Flaviana R. F. Dias et al.

Summary: This study reports the synthesis of three series of carbohydrate-based benzo[f]indole-4,9-diones and amino-1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives, as well as their cytotoxic activity against eight human cancer cell lines. Some compounds showed promising cytotoxic activity, with discussion on the importance of substitution patterns on their antitumor effects. The synthesized compounds did not exhibit lytic effects on erythrocytes or normal human leukocytes, unlike the clinically useful anticancer agent doxorubicin.
