Due to cell damage caused by UV light, photoremovable protecting groups (PPGs) that are removed using visible or near-infrared light are attracting attention. A 2-(4-nitrophenyl)- 1H-indolyl-3-methyl chromophore (NPIM) was synthesized as a novel PPG. Various compounds were caged using this PPG and uncaged using visible or near-infrared light. Low cytotoxicity of NPIM indicates that it may be applied in physiological studies.

Imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides are presented for the first time as potential precursors to generate α-imino metal-carbene intermediates and applied in direct C-H functionalization reactions catalyzed by [Ir(cod)Cl]2 (4 mol %) to provide 2-substituted indoles (up to 70% yield) in just one step. This class of sulfur ylide is successfully obtained from imidoyl chloride and dimethylsulfoxonium methylide (23 new examples in 45-85% yield) or by imino group formation from the corresponding β-keto sulfoxonium ylides and anilines in the presence of TiCl4 as a Lewis acid (9 examples in 33-94% yield).

Indole derivatives have attractive anticancer properties and may be a future hope for better anticancer drug(s) of low toxicity and high potency. In this paper, syntheses of 2-phenylindole derivatives have been described via Fischer indole synthesis through a one-pot solvent-free method. The synthesized compounds were screened for anticancer potential in vitro against murine melanoma (B16F10), human lung cancer (A549), and human breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) cell lines. The results highlighted that 2-phenylindole derivatives are also promising anticancer agents in case of melanoma and lung cancer along with the breast cancer. Molecular docking analyses with possible targets for melanoma (NEDD4-1) and lung cancer (EGFR) were also performed to understand specific interactions of 2-phenylindole derivatives with the amino acid residues of the receptors.
