This work demonstrates a highly modular, fully regioselective, and high-yielding route to accessing a variety of multiarylated thiophene motifs. Specifically, this method was used to generate unique diarylated (2,5 or 3,5 or 4,5), triarylated (2,3,5 or 2,4,5 or 3,4,5), and tetra-arylated (2,3,4,5) thiophenes, and branched oligothiophenes. Our approach ena ...

Several derivatives of a series that share a thienoisoquinoline scaffold have demonstrated potent anti-cancer activity against cancer cell lines A549, HeLa, HCT-116 in the submicromolar concentration range. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies on a range of derivatives aided in identifyi ...
