Summary: In response to the resistance of malaria parasite towards quinoline-based antimalarial drugs, a study has employed quinoline-containing compounds combined with dihydropyrimidinone (DHPM) analogues as resistance reversal agents (RAs) to investigate their antimalarial activities. By using click chemistry, the study linked DHPM and quinoline compounds which offered synthetic advantages over amide coupling. Among the synthesized compounds, 4 hybrids with the 7-chloroquinoline moiety showed potent antimalarial activity below 1 μM while mefloquine-containing compounds showed lower activity compared to chloroquine (CQ) and the 7-chloroquinoline hybrids.

Summary: A regioselective electrochemical C-H amination method using easily accessible ethers has been developed to synthesize N (2)-substituted 1,2,3-triazole. Multiple substituents, including heterocycles, were well-tolerated, and 24 examples were obtained in moderate to good yields. Control experiments and DFT calculations revealed that the electrochemical synthesis occurs through a N-tosyl 1,2,3-triazole radical cation process, promoted by single-electron transfer from the lone pair electrons of the aromatic N-heterocycle, and the desulfonation is responsible for the high N (2)-regioselectivity.

Summary: Due to the increasing environmental pollution and its detrimental impact on the ecosystem, scientists have developed new chemical strategies using eco-friendly chemicals, solvents, catalysts, and alternative energy sources. Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are low-melting mixtures primarily consisting of quaternary ammonium salt and hydrogen-bond acceptors. DESs have advantages such as low toxicity, easy preparation, low cost, biodegradability, low vapor pressure, and recyclability.

Summary: The synthesis of prolinamide derivatives of (R)-tetrahydropapaverine and their application as organocatalysts in asymmetric Aldol reaction were reported. Catalyst 2 showed the best catalytic activity in the reaction between cyclohexanone and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde, achieving up to 90% enantiomeric excess. Unlike the anti-stereoselectivity observed in the presence of L-proline alone, the hybridization with (R)-tetrahydropapaverine resulted in the formation of syn products as the major compounds.
