A series of 3-(substituted-benylidene)-1, 3-dihydro- indolin-2-one, 3-(substituted-benylidene)-1, 3-dihydro- indolin-2-thione and 2, 2'-dithiobis 3-(substituted-benylidene)-1, 3-dihydro-indole derivatives was investigated as inhibitor of $p60^{c-Src}$tyrosine kinase by performing receptor docking studies and inhibitory activity toward tyrosine phosphorylation. Some compounds were shown to be docked at the site, where the selective inhibitor PP1 [1-tert-Butyl-3-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-4-yl-amine] was embedded at the enzyme active site. Evaluation of all compounds for the interactions with the parameters of lowest binding energy levels, capability of hydrogen bond formations and superimposibility on enzyme active site by docking studies, it can be assumed that 3-(substituted-benzylidene)-1, 3-dihydro-indolin-2-one and thione derivatives have better interaction with enzyme active site then 2, 2'-dithiobis 3-(substituted-benzylidene)-1, 3-dihydro indole derivatives. The test results for the inhibitory activity against tyrosine kinase by Elisa method revealed that 3-(substituted-benylidene)-1, 3-dihydro- indolin-2-thione derivatives have more activity then 3-(substituted-benylidene)-1, 3-dihydro- indolin-2-one derivatives.

Antibiotics are used in many sectors, including the dairy industry, to prevent bacterial infections in humans, animals, and plants. When bacterial cells are exposed to stressors, such as antibiotic exposure, a subpopulation of the cells becomes dormant. This helps the pathogen to revive and reconstitute its pathogenicity. Thus, eradicating the dormant cells may be an effective strategy to reduce the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria caused by the abuse of antibiotics. In recent years, a large number of indole-related compounds have been reported to eradicate persister cells. In this review, we provide a summary of the mechanisms of persister cell formation and resuscitation, and the ability of indole and substituted indoles to eradicate persister cells.

We have designed a new family of radioligands, 3-(amino- and hydroxymethyl)-4-(5-iodopyridin-2-ylthio)indoles, combining characteristically distinct moieties proven to impart successful binding ability in a variety of structurally diverse selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors recently published. Described in this article are the syntheses of 3-substituted 4-(5-iodopyridin-2-ylthio)-indoles, featuring successful adaptation of the modified Leimgruber-Batcho indole synthesis onto the key intermediate 1-(5-iodopyridin-2-ylthio)-2-methyl-3-nitrobenzene (6) prepared from the nucleophilic aromatic substitution of chloropyridine 7 with thiophenol 8.

A simple, efficient and an environmental friendly method have been developed for the synthesis of substituted indole from aryl hydrazines and aldehydes/ketones with HPA-phosphomolybdic acid as a heterogeneous catalyst. The catalyst is nontoxic and recyclable.

Nonclassical aminobenz[cd]indole antifolates 4, 5 and 6, in which the glutamic acid moiety of the classical antifolates is substituted by 2-phenylglycinamide or 3-aminobenzamide, were synthesized and their in vitro antitumor activity was evaluated. The purpose of this substitution is that the lipophilicity is enhanced due to the aromatic ring of the target compounds for the passive transport through lipid membrane of cells while the hydrogen bonding of the amide is retained in the active site of the enzyme, thymidylate synthase, where the glutamate is originally present. The target compounds were highly cytotoxic against tumor cell lines of murine and human origin with micromolar to nanomolar $IC_{50}$ values. Most effective was compound 4 ($N^6-methyl-N^6$-[4-[(${\alpha}$(S)-aminocarbonylbenzyl) aminocarbonyl]benzyl]-2,6-diaminobenz[cd]indole)with $IC_{50}$ of 2 nM against SW480, human colon adenocarcinoma cell line, which is 650-fold more potent than the reference compound 3.

Intermediates, 1-benzyl-2-substituted-3-carboxaldehyde[I]-[II], were prepared by the reaction of 2-substituted indole-3-carboxaldehyde with benzyl chloride. Indolylacrylophenone derivatives[III]-[X] were prepared from 1-benzyl-2-substituted-3-carboxaldehyde with acetophenone derivatives. They are as follows; 3-(1'-benzylindole-3'-yl)-1acrylophenone [III] 3-(1'-benzylindole-3-yl)-1(p-methoxy)acrylophenone [IV] 3-(1'-benzylindole-3-yl)-1(p-bromo)acrylophenone [V] 3-(1'-benzylindole-3-yl)-1(p-chloro)acrylophenone [VI] 3-(1'-benzyl-2'-methylindole-3'-yl)-1-acrylophenone [VII] 3-(1'-benzyl-2'-methylindole-3'-yl)-1-(p-methoxy)acrylophenone [VIII] 3-(1'-benzyl-2'-methylindole-3'-yl)-1-(p-bromo)acrylophenone [VIII] 3-(1'-benzyl-2'-methylindole-3'-yl)-1-(p-chloro)acrylophenone [X]

A series of tetramethyl 1-substituted benzyl-3a,7a-dihydro-1H-indole-2,3,3a,4-tetracarboxylates were prepared and their reactions with bromine were examined. The initial reaction seemed to be the formation of the intermediate N-bromo quaternary ammonium bromide. This intermediate underwent aromatization with loss of the 3a-methoxycarbonyl group. Bromine replaced the N-substituent of the p-methoxybenzyl compound and addition of bromine occurred across the $C_6-C_7$ double bond of the indole ring. Bromination of the benzyl ring and aromatization occurred for the m-methoxybenzyl compound.

The development of an organic-based aqueous redox flow battery (RFB) using quinone as an electroactive material has attracted great attention recently. This is because this battery is inexpensive, produces high energy density, and is environment friendly in stationary electrical energy storage applications. Herein, we investigate the redox potentials and solubilities of indole-5,6-quinone and indole-4,7-quinone derivatives in terms of the substituent effects of functional groups using theoretical calculations. Our results indicate that full-site substituted derivatives of indolequinone are more useful as active materials compared to single-site substituted derivatives. In particular, our calculations reveal that the substitution of $-PO_3H_2$ and $-SO_3H$ functional groups with multiple polar bonds is very effective in increasing the activity of the aqueous RFB. As a strategy to overcome the limitation that the aqueous solubility is intrinsically low because they are organic molecules, we suggest the substitution of functional groups with multiple polar bonds to the backbones of active organic materials. Among 180 indolequinone derivatives, 17 candidates that meet the redox potential standards ($${\leq_-}0.2V$$ or $${\geq_-}0.9V$$) and eight candidates with solubility exceeding 2 mol/L are identified. Three indolequinone derivatives that satisfy both conditions are finally presented as promising electroactive candidates for an aqueous RFB.

For the synthesis of new anti-inflammatory agents as indol derivatives, we have synthesized ${\alpha}$-benzoyl-1-ethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydro-8-ethyl-9-(N-benzoyl)pyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-acetic acid methyl ester. It was a new method for ${\alpha}$-substituted etodolac carboxylic acid. The synthetic process was composed of four steps, and 7-ethylindole and oxalyl chloride were used as starting materials. The third step, cyclization was carried out by addition of borontrifluoride diethyl etherate in 66% yield. The step of reduction and cyclization were simplified successfully. The final product, ${\alpha}$-benzoyl-1-ethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydro-8-ethyl-9-(N-benzoyl)pyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-acetic acid methyl ester was obtained in 66% yield by the reaction of methyl 1,8-dimethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydropyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-acetate (etodollic acid methyl ester) and benzoyl chloride.
