Abstract
Bis(indolyl)Methanes are a major class of heterocycles with considerable promise for technological and biological applications and being fluorescent active as well. Considering the extensive quantity of work on various synthetic techniques, the objective of this study is to measure the previous and current status of research studies related to different types of Bis(indolyl)methane (BIM) derivatives. Currently, research is focused on developing green synthetic strategies for dependable, sustainable and environmentally friendly synthetic processes. The present literature describes the formation of BIM moieties starting from suitable precursors using conventional reaction procedures, as well as reactions mediated by microwaves, ultrasounds, organocatalysts, transition metal catalysts, metal-free ionic liquid catalysts, and other environmentally friendly reaction protocols. The current review discusses the explosive development of different environmentally friendly synthesis routes for bis(indolyl)methane and its analogues during the past few decades. Moreover, this study includes the biological activities such as antibacterial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, etc., of BIM derivatives, which have been investigated in recent years.
期刊介绍:
Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry is a forum for the review of areas of keen and topical interest to medicinal chemists and others in the allied disciplines. Each issue is solely devoted to a specific topic, containing six to nine reviews, which provide the reader a comprehensive survey of that area. A Guest Editor who is an expert in the topic under review, will assemble each issue. The scope of Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry will cover all areas of medicinal chemistry, including current developments in rational drug design, synthetic chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, high-throughput screening, combinatorial chemistry, compound diversity measurements, drug absorption, drug distribution, metabolism, new and emerging drug targets, natural products, pharmacogenomics, and structure-activity relationships. Medicinal chemistry is a rapidly maturing discipline. The study of how structure and function are related is absolutely essential to understanding the molecular basis of life. Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry aims to contribute to the growth of scientific knowledge and insight, and facilitate the discovery and development of new therapeutic agents to treat debilitating human disorders. The journal is essential for every medicinal chemist who wishes to be kept informed and up-to-date with the latest and most important advances.
