Abstract: Title compound (E)-1-(4-(4-bromobenzyl)piperazin-1-yl)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (5) (C20H20BrClN2O, Mr?=?419.74) is designed, synthesized, and evaluated for its biological activity. Its structure is confirmed by FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR, HRMS, and X-ray single crystal diffraction. The structure is stabilized via inter- as well as intra- C–H…O interactions and intra hydrogen bonding C–H…N interactions. The Hirshfeld surface intermolecular interactions are studied using the crystal structure. The maximum surface area of the molecule is occupied by C–H…O interactions. In addition, the biological activity in vitro and in vivo of title compound 5 is also evaluated.

β-Substituted acrylamides have low electrophilicity and are yet to be exploited in the enantioselective Rauhut–Currier reaction. By exploiting electron-withdrawing protection of the amide and moderate nucleophilicity N-heterocyclic carbenes, such substrates have been converted to enantioenriched quinolones. The reaction proceeds with complete diastereoselectivity, good yield, and modest enantioselectivity. Derivatizations are reported, as are computational studies, supporting decreased amide bond character with electron-withdrawing protection of the nitrogen.

Cinnamic acid derivatives (CAD's) represent a great alternative in the search for insecticides against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes since they have antimicrobial and insecticide properties. Ae. aegypti is responsible for transmitting Dengue, Chikungunya, and Zika viruses, among other arboviruses associated with morbimortality, especially in developing countries. In view of this, in vitro analyses of n-substituted cinnamic acids and esters were performed upon 4th instar larvae (L4) of Ae. aegypti, as well as, molecular docking studies to propose a potential biological target towards this mosquitoes species. The larvicide assays proved that n-substituted ethyl cinnamates showed a more pronounced activity than their corresponding acids, in which p-chlorocinnamate (3j) presented a LC50 value of 8.3 μg/mL. Thusly, external morphologic alterations (rigid and elongated body, curved bowel, and translucent or darkened anal papillae) of mosquitoes’ group exposed to compound 3j, were observed by microscopy. In addition, an analytical method was developed for the quantification of the most promising analog by using high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV). Molecular docking studies suggested that the larvicide action is associated with inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme. Therefore, expanding the larvicidal study with the cinnamic acid derivatives against the vector Ae. aegypti is important for finding search for more effective larvicides and with lower toxicity, since they have already shown good larvicidal properties against Ae. aegypti.
