Article Abstract

A new andrographolide-based terminal alkyne was synthesized in good yield from -andrographolide , obtained from a natural compound andrographolide , which in turn was isolated from the leaves of the plant . Copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction of alkyne with -sugars furnished a library of andrographolide-fastened triazolyl glycoconjugates in good yields. The structures of these semisynthetic andrographolide derivatives were established by Fourier transform infrared, NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The compounds were further evaluated against Alzheimer's disease (AD) using a scopolamine (SCOP)-induced memory impairment mice model. It was observed that antioxidant and anticholinesterase properties of these compounds contribute significantly toward their remarkable potential to improve cognitive functioning.

Novel triazolyl macrocycles incorporating glycolipids: a new protocol.

Carbohydr Res

November 2025

Centre for Fundamental and Frontier Sciences in Nanostructure Self-Assembly, Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Universiti Malaya, 50603, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Six new macrocycles incorporating glycolipids containing one triazole ring in their structures were synthesized via intramolecular macrocyclic closure. The synthesis strategy is based on the different reactivities of primary and secondary hydroxyl groups on the monosaccharides. The protecting of hydroxyls on 4,6-positions by benzylidene, followed by benzylation of 2,3-positions and removal of the benzylidene, selectively left over the free secondary and primary hydroxyl on 4- and 6-carbons, respectively.

Ascorbyl palmitate sodium salt (Asp-Na) 2 has been found to be a highly effective co-catalyst in copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions under microwave (MW) condition. This co-catalyst provides a more cost-efficient option compared to sodium ascorbate by reducing the stoichiometric amount of ascorbic acid required for the CuAAC reaction. With its palmitate side chain, Asp-Na 2 acts as a surfactant by improving the solubility of substrates, particularly the lipophilic compounds.

Autotaxin (ATX) is a key enzyme in producing lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a lipid involved in fibrosis. This study reports the synthesis and evaluation of novel ATX inhibitors containing zinc-binding imidazole or triazole motif with piperidine spacers. Compound 27a exhibited strong ATX inhibition (IC = 57 nM) in human plasma and demonstrated efficacy in cellular and animal fibrosis models.

We herein report a multicomponent reaction for the synthesis of -unsubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles and -substituted-1,2,3 triazoles from the reaction of aldehydes, nitroalkanes, and sodium azides/glycosyl azides in the presence of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol, a hydrogen bond-donating reaction medium. This three-component reaction provides a metal-free strategy for sequentially forming one C-C and two C-N bonds in a one-pot fashion. One-pot mild reaction condition, operational simplicity, wide substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, easy purification, high reaction yields, and altogether excellent regioselectivity are the notable advantages of this 1,2,3-triazole-forming protocol.

Chimeras Derived from a P2Y Receptor Antagonist and UDP-Sugar Agonists for Potential Treatment of Inflammation.

ACS Pharmacol Transl Sci

Tethered glycoconjugates of a naphthalene- and piperidine-containing antagonist of the P2Y receptor (PPTN) were synthesized, and their nM receptor binding affinity was determined using a fluorescent tracer in hP2YR-expressing whole CHO cells. The rationale for preparing mono- and disaccharide conjugates of the antagonists was to explore the receptor binding site, which we know recognizes a glucose moiety on the native agonist (UDP-glucose), as well as enhance aqueous solubility and pharmacokinetics, including kidney excretion to potentially counteract sterile inflammation. Glycoconjugates with varied linker length, including PEG chains, were compared in hP2YR binding, suggesting that an optimal affinity (IC, nM) in the piperidine series was achieved for triazolyl -linked glucose conjugates having one (, MRS4872, 3.
