The reaction of 2-methoxycarlmethylen-l,2-dihydro-4H-pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazin-3-one(5) with hydrazine hydrate and ethylenediamine gave 2-hydrazinocarbonylmethylene-1,2-dihydro-4H-pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazin-3-one(6) and 2-aminoethylcarbamethylene-1,2-dihydro-4H-pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazin-3-one(7), res-pectively. The reaction of compound 6 or 7 with substituted benzaldehydes or heteroaryl aldehydes afforded pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazines(8-13). Some pyrin the enamine, methylene imine and enaminol forms in solution. The tau-tomer ratios were determined by the H NMR.

The reaction of 6-chloro-2-hydrazinoquinoxaline 4-oxide (11) with ethyl chloroglyoxylate provided ethyl 8-chloro-4H-1,3,4-oxadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxaline-2-carboxylate (12) through the intramolecular cyclization. The reaction of 12 with hydrazine hydrate afforded the $C_2$-hydrazinocarbonyl derivative 13, whose reactions with substituted benzaldehydes or heteroaryl aldehydes provided 8-chloro-2-(substituted benzylidenehydrazinocarbonyl)-4H-1,3,4-oxadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxalines (14) or 8-chloro-2-[(2-substituted methylidene)hydrazinocarbonyl]-4H-1,3,4-oxadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxalines(15), respectively.

In the present investigation, a series of some novel 1,3-diaryl/heteroarylprop-2-en-1-one derivatives (3a-j) have been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicity against three cancer cell lines, two hepatocarcinoma cell lines HUH-7, Hep-3b and one leukemia cancer cell line MOLT-4. Based on these results, structure-activity relationship (SAR) was studied on modification of $R^1$ and $R^2$ to identify the compound with maximum potency. Amongst the compounds, 3b and 3d strongly inhibited the growth of Hep-3b and MOLT-4 cells with $IC_{50}$ value of 3.39 and $3.63{\mu}M$ respectively. The results obtained from the inhibitory study had further been supported by the reactive oxygen species (ROS) measurement using flow cytometry in MOLT-4 cells. These observations collectively reveal that compounds comprising 1,3-diarylprop-2-en-1-one framework with pyrazole ring at position-3 and heteroaryl/aryl substituents at position-1 can be used as promising anticancer agents.

Nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ (NF-${\kappa}B$) has been considered as one of the major targets for therapeutic agents of diverse human diseases. In the previous studies, 6-hydroxy-7-methoxychroman-2-carboxylic acid N-phenylamide (KL-1156) and chroman-2-carboxylic acid N-(4-chlorophenyl)amide were identified as good inhibitors of NF-${\kappa}B$ activation. In this continuous study, we describe the synthesis and NF-${\kappa}B$ inhibitory activities of chroman derivatives containing N-heteroaryl groups for exploration of SAR (structure-activity relationship). In addition, inhibitory effects of cell proliferation are evaluated against human cancer cell lines (NCI-H23 and PC-3).

In connection with our interest on the photochemical properties of heteroaryl halides, which are currently the subject of heterocyclic ring formation and haloarene degradation, we have studied the photochemistry of the haloarene linked to N-heteroarene compounds. Imidazo[5,1-a]isoindole was synthesized from N-(ochlorobenzyl)imidazole or N-(o-bromobenzyl) imidazole in acidic aqueous solution or acetonitrile via the intramolgcular photocyclization (Table 1). This type of reaction provides the synthetic methods for 5- and 6-membered polyheteroatomic heterocyclic ring compounds. However, the reaction mechanism for the intramolecular photocyclization of haloarene tethered heteroarenes has not yet been established. Grimshaw et al. suggested a mechanism for homolyric carbonhalogen bond fission assisted by radical complexation to explain their results in the photocyclization of 5-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,3-diphenylpyrazole. They also reported the detection of acyclohexadienyl intermediate involved in the above reaction. Park et al. reported several transient 'intermediates involved in the laser flash photolysis of N-(o-halobenzyl) pyridinium and N-benzyl-2-halopyridinium salts. Thus we performed the laser flash photolysis study on the photocyclization reaction of N-(o-chlorobenzyl) imidazole to identify the intermediate species involved in the reaction. Here, we report on the preliminary results in the photocyclization reaction of N-(o-halobenzyl)imidazole through the detection of reaction intermediates.
