A new catalytic system has been developed in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes using cyclic phosphonic acid anhydride(T3P). Short reaction time, simplicity of isolation, safe catalyst and high yields of product are the features.

As recent as 10 years ago, a method of developing new medicine was developed by a new compounding method moving away from an existing one. Combinatorial chemistry made it easier to combine various kinds of compounds in a very short time and with little effort from existing methods. Through combinatorial chemistry, a number of compounds were synthesized using HTS(High Throughput Screening), with many reports reaching a clinical stage in search of new candidate material.

4-Acetylantipyrine 1 underwent condensation with 4-formyl-antipyrine 2 to give 3. Condensation of either 3 with 1 or 1 with 2 in a molar ratio of (2 :1) afforded 4. Cyclization of 4 in the presence of PPA and ammonium acetate or 4-aminoantipyrine in the presence of glacial acetic acid gave 5-6 respectively. Claisen condensation of 1 with ethyl acetate and diethyl oxalate afforded compounds 8-10. The reaction of 1 and 2 with indole in ethanol/conc. hyddrochloric acid was also investigated.

A series of substituted rutaecarpines were prepared by employing Fischer indole synthesis as key step and their inhibitory activities on COX-1 and 2 as well as selectivity on COX-2 were evaluated. The compounds with a methanesulfonyl and a bromo group at C10 showed promising inhibitory activity ($IC_{50}$ = 0.27, 0.35 $\mu$M, respectively) with selectivity.

New thiazoline derivatives 7a-c, and thiophenes 9a-c linked to indole moiety were easily prepared via the reaction of the acrylamide derivative 3 with phenacyl bromides 4a-c, depending on the reaction conditions. In addition, the reaction of compound 3 with hydrazonoyl chlorides 11a-f afforded a series of 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives 13a-f. Moreover, coupling of 3-(3-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile (2) with the diazonium salts of 3-phenyl-5-aminopyrazole 16 or 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole 17 gave the corresponding hydrazones 18 and 19, respectively. Cyclization of the latter hydrazones yielded the corresponding pyrazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine and 1,2,4-triazolo[5,1-c]-1,2,4-triazine derivatives 20 and 21, respectively. The structures of the synthesized compounds were assigned on the basis of elemental analysis, IR, $^1H$ NMR and mass spectral data. All the synthesized compounds were tested for in vitro activities against certain strains of fungi such as Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus nodulans, Alternaria alternate. Compounds showed marked inhibition of fungal growth nearly equal to the standards.

One of organic dye materials which have been long lasting investigated is rhodamine 6G dye series. This dye has been attracted with considerable interests due to the reason of its promising photochemical properties. In this study, a novel fluorescent dye compound based on rhodamine 6G derivative was synthesized through the reaction of rhodamine 6G hydrazide and indole-3-carboxaldehdyde. Absorption and fluorescent emission spectra of this dye were determined with the properties of solvatofluorochromism. Related electron energy states of the dye compound were also characterized by computational calculations.

A series of dimethine cyanine dyes were synthesized in a fast, efficient and high yield by the condensation of quaternary salts with 1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde in the presence of piperidine under solvent-free microwave irradiation. The products were identified by 1H NMR, IR, UV-Vis spectra and elemental analysis. The absorption and fluorescence properties of these dyes were investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Calculations performed at a combination of time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) and the polarizable continuum model (PCM) reproduced the π-π* type absorption bands of the dyes. Regression analysis was used for studying theoretical results of the absorption maxima in different solvents. Compared with experimental counterparts, estimated overall uncertainties in the absorption maxima were about ±2%.

A series of thioureas were synthesized as inhibitors of NO production in lipopolysaccharide-activated macrophages. We investigated the effect of lipophilic moiety and N-substituents of the thioureas on the activity. Phenoxazine and carbazole-containing derivatives revealed higher activity than indole-containing thioureas. The appropriate spacer between lipophilic tail and thiourea head and methyl substituent at N3 position of thiourea brought beneficial effect on the inhibition of NO production. Among prepared compounds, phenoxazine-containing derivative 2a was the most potent with $2.32 {\mu}M$ of $IC_{50}$ value. RT-PCR analysis suggested that the prepared thioureas inhibited NO production through the suppression of iNOS mRNA expression.

A series of rutaecarpine homologues were prepared from 2,3-polymethylene-4(3H-quinazolinones in 4 steps [i) PhCHO/Ac$_2$O, ⅱ) O,$_3$ ⅲ) PhNHNH$_2$HCl, and ⅳ) PPA], in which dihedral angles of the two planar aromatic rings (indole and 4(3H)-quinazolinone) were controlled in a regular fashion. Their inhibitory activities on COX-1 and COX-2 were evaluated to show that the inhibitory activities were increased with the increase of the length of methylene unit while selectivities on COX-2 decreased leading a loss in trimethylene bridged system.
