A vers.tile s.nthetic approach toward a s.ries.of benzothiazepines.with medicinal potential (for example, compound s.rong>1s.rong>) that allows.incorporation of s.ructural variation at the three aromatic regions.of the s.ructure, and at the s.lfur atom, was.developed. Knoevenagel condens.tion of indan-1,3-diones.with benzaldehydes. yielded 2-benzylidineindan-1,3-diones. which undewent thio-Michael addition and intramolecular imine formation upon reaction with 2-aminothiophenols. to produce the target benzothiazepines. Us. of indan-1,3-diones. benzaldehydes.or 2-aminothiophenols.bearing further s.bs.itution enabled production of novel 5,11-dihydro-12H-benzo[b]indeno [1,2-e][1,4]thiazepin-12-one analogs.s.rong>1s.rong> - s.rong>14s.rong>, including compounds.bearing s.bs.itution at novel pos.tions.within the s.affold.

Chronic obs.ructive pulmonary dis.as. is.an inflammatory condition with increas.d ris. of lung cancer. We hypothes.zed that curcumin/ bioperine (CB), which has.anti-inflammatory effects. may reduce cytological abnormalities.in the s.utum of patients.with COPD. We conducted a 3-month, three-to-one randomized, doubleblind, pilot trial of es.alating dos.s.of CB in patients.with moderate or wors. COPD who were capable of producing s.utum. The primary efficacy endpoint was.changed in s.utum cytology. We als. explored changes.in fluores.ence in s.tu hybridization (FIs.). We obtained s.utum s.mples.for cytology and chromos.me abnormalities.at bas.line and each monthly follow-up vis.t. We enrolled 57 participants. with 35 completing the s.udy. The participants. mean age (s.andard deviation [s.]) was.66.6 (8.2) years. and they were mainly male (91.2%), with an average of 63.8 pack-years.of s.oking his.ory. Als., 42.1% of participants.were active s.okers.and the mean (s.) FEV1 was.37% (13%). At bas.line, 13 s.bjects.had moderate or wors. dys.las.a (22.8%). s.bjects.with moderate to s.vere s.utum dys.las.a had more chromos.me abnormalities.in epithelial cells.and neutrophils. as.meas.red by deletion and aneuploidy in 10q22.3. The changes.in s.utum cytology and chromos.me abnormalities.did not differ between the active and placebo arms. CB was.well tolerated at the bid dos.s.of 1, 1.5, and 2 gm of curcumin and 5 mg of bioperine, with minor s.de effects.related to the gas.rointes.inal tract. In this.s.ort pilot trial, CB compared to placebo did not alter cytological and chromos.mal abnormalities.s.en in s.utum of patients.with COPD.
