Natural products have stimulated chemists owing to their abundant structural diversity and complexity. Indeed, natural products have performed an essential role, particularly in the cure of cancerous and infectious diseases, thereby posing medicinal researchers with a scope of unexplored chemotypes for the innovation of new drugs. Fusion of chemical derivatization and combinatorial synthesis forms the basis of the concept of chemo diversification of plants. Diverse libraries of natural product analogs are constructed through existing biological and chemical approaches using unique schemes to expand natural product frameworks. This review aims to present several approaches employed to offer innovative opportunities to synthesize NP-inspired compound libraries. Reactive molecular fragments present in most natural products are chemically converted to chemically engineered extracts (CEEs) or semisynthetic compounds constituting distinct libraries. Bio-guided isolation for natural products required vital tools like reverse phase chromatography and bioautographic assays. Different established strategies from DTS, BIOS, CtD, FOS, FBDD to Late-stage diversification facilitate the expansion of molecules with physicochemical properties. In particular, fragment-like natural products with novel skeletons may be used as preliminary points for chemical biology and medicinal chemistry programs with great capacity. In this review, we sum up how NPs have proven fruitful for the novel methodologies responsible for the diversification of complex natural products; thereby, it is worthy of going over the upcoming integration of natural products with combinatorial chemistry.
The reaction protocols and their continuous development to achieve the desired selectivity remain a primary target of organic chemistry, which is addressed here with the specific role of the cesium ion. The pharmacophore “2-styryl quinoline” was taken as a reference here because of the continuation of our work, where it was found fit as fusion inhibitors and anti-viral agents. The present protocol defines its importance for the synthesis of O-alkylated products. However, in most cases, N-alkylation proceeds because of nitrogen atoms’ more nucleophilic nature and electronic density. The cesium effect makes this possible because of the large cationic size and its affection for the oxygen atom. The plausible mechanism and its progression were demonstrated here with the help of density function theory calculation by analyzing the energy of intermediates. The protocol is also found suitable with microwave irradiation. Moreover, it gives the product a better yield in less reaction time. The present reaction protocol and its importance will address some of the crucial issues related to the synthesis of the complex molecule, and the present protocol will open up hope, where the selectivity and product yield would be a concern.
This review aims to give a comprehensive report of the quinoline ring, related to its synthesis, reactivity, and therapeutic values. The reactivity of quinoline for the metal, electrophile, and other reactive counterparts defines the shape of the quinoline pharmacophore, which is the part of this report, moreover, its spectroscopic characteristics are also mentioned herein with suitable illustration. The quinoline and its derivatives have been summarized herein with the general synthetic approaches along with the new development in the catalytic system, moreover, the relevant information is also summarized under the various activity classes. The importance of the heterocyclic scaffolds has been a hit target of the scientist to synthesize; because of that bioactive scaffold, the “quinoline" is taken as a reference to give the importance to sensitizing the synthesis of the concerned bioactive molecule.
