Abstract
Phenoxazines are an important class of heterocycles, which are emerging in the field of medicinal chemistry. They exhibit numerous biological activities, including antiviral, anticancer, anti-Alzheimer, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibiotic and many more. The present review focuses on the chemistry along with the medicinal applications of the phenoxazine moiety, in order to provide a greater insight for the development of future phenoxazine therapeutics.
Keywords: Phenoxazines, actinomycin, phenoxazine synthesis, phenoxazine biosynthesis, phenoxazine applications, phenoxazine bioactivities, phenoxazine natural products.

Chalcogen-modified nucleic acid analogues
Chalcogen-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides have been of great interest to scientific research for many years. The replacement of oxygen in the nucleobase, sugar or phosphate backbone by chalcogen atoms (sulfur, selenium, tellurium) gives these biomolecules unique properties resulting from their altered physical and chemical properties. The continuing interest in ...read more
