Molecules . 2012 Mar; 17(4):3834-43. PMID: 22456543
Three aminodi(hetero)arylamines were prepared via a palladium-catalyzed C-N Buchwald-Hartwig coupling of methyl 3-aminothieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate with different bromonitrobenzenes, followed by reduction of the nitro groups of the coupling products to the corresponding...

Nanoscale Res Lett . 2011 Aug; 6(1):482. PMID: 21812989
A potential antitumoral fluorescent indole derivative, methyl 6-methoxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxylate, was evaluated for the in vitro cell growth inhibition on three human tumor cell lines, MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma), A375-C5 (melanoma), and NCI-H460...

Queiroz M, Calhelha R, Vale-Silva L, Pinto E, Almeida G, Vasconcelos M
Eur J Med Chem . 2010 Dec; 46(1):236-40. PMID: 21138784
The methyl 3-amino-6-bromothieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate, recently reported by some of us, was reacted in Sonogashira couplings with several (hetero)arylacetylenes. The growth inhibitory activity of the novel methyl 3-amino-6-[(hetero)arylethynyl]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylates obtained was evaluated on...

Queiroz M, Calhelha R, Vale-Silva L, Pinto E, Sao-Jose Nascimento M
Eur J Med Chem . 2010 Oct; 45(12):5732-8. PMID: 20934235
Several novel 6-[(hetero)arylamino]thieno[3,2-b]pyridines were prepared by palladium-catalyzed C-N Buchwald-Hartwig coupling of the methyl 3-amino-6-bromothieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate with aryl and heteroarylamines, using different reaction conditions. The antitumoral activity of the di(hetero)arylamines obtained was...
