In the title compound, C(15)H(10)FIO(2)S, the O atom and the methyl group of the methyl-sulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane through the benzofuran fragment. The 4-iodo-phenyl ring is rotated out of the benzofuran plane by a dihedral angle of 39.4 (1)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by an inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond and an I⋯O halogen bond [3.055 (2) Å]. The cry...

Objective(s): Hybridization of bioactive natural and synthetic compounds is one of the most promising novel approaches for the design of hit and lead compounds with new molecular structures. In this investigation, a series of novel hybrid structures bearing quinazolinone, benzofuran and imidazolium moieties were designed and synthesized. Materials and Methods:Novel hybrid compounds were prepare...

increased exposure to estrogen has been associated with the risk of breast cancer. substituted benzofuran derivatives with inhibitory effects on estrogen synthesis could be considered as a potential approach to reduce the risk of breast cancer. the study of cytotoxic effects of these compounds has suggested involvement of other mechanisms such as dna damage. in the current study we have investi...

Four new benzofuran-type stilbene glycosides and 14 known compounds including 8 benzofuran-type stilbenes and 6 flavonoids were isolated from the traditional Chinese medicine, Cortex Mori Radicis. The new compounds were identified as (9R)-moracin P 3'-O-α-l-arabinopyranoside (1), (9R)-moracin P 9-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (2), (9R)-moracin P 3'-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (3), and (9R)-moracin O 10-O-β-d...

The addition of an allenyl indium intermediate to chiral N-tert-butanesulfinyl imines 7 proceeds with high levels of diastereocontrol. The resulting homopropargylic amine derivatives 10 were transformed into 2-(2-aminoalkyl)benzofuran and indole derivatives 13 and 19, after Sonogashira coupling with o-iodophenol or o-iodoaniline, followed by formation of the heteroaromatic ring through an intra...

The title compound, C(15)H(11)BrO(3)S, was prepared by the oxidation of 5-bromo-2-methyl-3-phenyl-sulfanyl-1-benzofuran with 3-chloro-peroxy-benzoic acid. The phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 78.99 (8)° with the plane of the benzofuran fragment. The crystal structure is stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions between a benzene H atom of the benzofuran unit and the phenyl ring of the phenyl-sulfo...

The title compound, C(17)H(16)O(2)S, was prepared by the oxidation of 2,4,6-trimethyl-3-phenyl-sulfanyl-1-benzofuran with 3-chloro-peroxy-benzoic acid. The O atom and the phenyl group of the phenyl-sulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the planar benzofuran fragment. The phenyl ring is nearly perpendicular to the plane of the benzofuran unit [89.88 (8)°] and is tilted slightly towards i...

The title compound, C(17)H(16)O(2)S, was prepared by the oxidation of 2,5,7-trimethyl-3-phenyl-sulfanyl-1-benzofuran with 3-chloro-peroxy-benzoic acid. The O atom and the phenyl group of the phenyl-sulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane of the benzofuran fragment. The phenyl ring is nearly perpendicular to the plane of the benzofuran unit [88.30 (9)°] and is tilted slightly tow...

Novel benzofuran-2-carboxamide ligands, which are selective for sigma receptors, have been synthesized via a microwave-assisted Perkin rearrangement reaction and a modified Finkelstein halogen-exchange used to facilitate N-alkylation. The ligands synthesized are the 3-methyl-N-phenyl-N-(3-(piperidin-1-yl)propyl)benzofuran-2-carboxamides (KSCM-1, KSCM-5 and KSCM-11). The benzofuran-2-carboxamide...

1,2-Dioxetanes, very reactive and high energy molecules, are involved as labile intermediates in dioxygenase-activated aerobic metabolism and in physiological processes. Various toxicological tests reveal that dioxetanes are indeed genotoxic. In supercoiled DNA of bacteriophage PM2 they induce endonuclease-sensitive sites, most of them are FPG protein-sensitive base modifications (8-hydroxyguan...
