N-Benzyl-2-chloro-N,3-diaryloxirane-2-carboxamides, easily obtained from aromatic aldehydes and anilides of dichloroacetic acid under Darzens condensation conditions, proved to be excellent starting compounds for the synthesis of 3-hydroxyindolin-2-ones, cyclohepto[b]pyrrole-2,3-diones, and 1-azaspiro[4.5]deca-3,6,9-triene-2-ones via the C(sp2)-C(sp2) bond formation in the first case and C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond formation in the second and third cases. Under optimized reaction conditions, 3-hydroxyindolin-2-ones are obtained in a one-pot process, which involves the treatment of N-benzyl-2-chloro-N,3-diaryloxirane-2-carboxamides with CF3CO2H or AcOH/H2SO4. In the case of intramolecular cyclization, the detailed reaction channels depend strongly on the substituents present in the anilide component and in the aromatic ring of the aldehyde component of N-benzyl-2-chloro-N,3-diaryloxirane-2-carboxamides, as well as the temperature and duration of the reaction. A combined experimental and DFT mechanistic study of the formation of 1-benzyl-3-hydroxy-4-arylquinolin-2(1H)-ones showed that there are three competing reaction channels: (a) ring-closure via the ipso site, (b) ring-closure via the 1,2-Cl shift, and (c) ring-closure via the ortho site. Such mechanistic insights enabled an effective one-pot gram-scale synthesis of viridicatin from benzaldehyde and 2,2-dichloro-N-(4-methoxybenzyl)-N-phenylacetamide.

In this work we describe the synthesis of potent and selective quinolone-based histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitors. The quinolone moiety has been exploited as an innovative bioactive cap-group for HDAC6 inhibition; its synthesis was achieved by applying a multicomponent reaction. The optimization of potency and selectivity of these products was performed by employing computational studies which led to the discovery of the diethylaminomethyl derivatives 7g and 7k as the most promising hit molecules. These compounds were investigated in cellular studies to evaluate their anticancer effect against colon (HCT-116) and histiocytic lymphoma (U9347) cancer cells, showing good to excellent potency, leading to tumor cell death by apoptosis induction. The small molecules 7a, 7g and 7k were able to strongly inhibit the cytoplasmic and slightly the nuclear HDAC enzymes, increasing the acetylation of tubulin and of the lysine 9 and 14 of histone 3, respectively. Compound 7g was also able to increase Hsp90 acetylation levels in HCT-116 cells, thus further supporting its HDAC6 inhibitory profile. Cytotoxicity and mutagenicity assays of these molecules showed a safe profile; moreover, the HPLC analysis of compound 7k revealed good solubility and stability profile.

A novel efficient one-pot regioselective ring-expansion reaction of isatins with in situ generated α-aryl/heteroaryldiazomethanes for the construction of viridicatin alkaloids has been described under metal-free conditions. The utility of this protocol is further demonstrated in the synthesis of naturally occurring viridicatin, viridicatol, and substituted 3-O-methyl viridicatin and their scale up.
