Journal Article
Musa, M., Abid, M., Bradshaw, T. D., Boocock, D. J., Coveney, C., Argent, S. P., & Woodward, S. (2024). Probing the Mechanism of Action of Bis(phenolato) Amine (ONO Donor Set) Titanium(IV) Anticancer Agents. Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 67(4), 2732-2744. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jmedchem.3c01874

The need for anticancer therapies that overcome metallodrug resistance while minimizing adverse toxicities is targeted, herein, using titanium coordination complexes. Octahedral titanium­(IV) trans, mer-[Ti­{R1N­(CH2–2-MeO-4-R1-C6H2)2}2] [R1 = Et, al...

Design, and synthesis of selectively anticancer 4-cyanophenyl substituted thiazol-2-ylhydrazones (2022)
Journal Article
Mehmood, H., Musa, M., Woodward, S., Hossan, M. S., Bradshaw, T. D., Haroon, M., …Akhtar, T. (2022). Design, and synthesis of selectively anticancer 4-cyanophenyl substituted thiazol-2-ylhydrazones. RSC Advances, 12(52), 34126-34141. https://doi.org/10.1039/d2ra03226k

Cyclization of substituted thiosemicarbazones with α-bromo-4-cyanoacetophenone allows rapid single-step sustainable syntheses of 4-cyanophenyl-2-hydrazinylthiazoles libraries (30 examples, 66–79%). All show anticancer efficacy against HCT-116 and MCF... Read More about Design, and synthesis of selectively anticancer 4-cyanophenyl substituted thiazol-2-ylhydrazones.

Asymmetric pentafulvene carbometalation-access to enantiopure titanocene dichlorides of biological relevance (2015)
Journal Article
Cini, M., Bradshaw, T. D., Woodward, S., & Lewis, W. (2015). Asymmetric pentafulvene carbometalation-access to enantiopure titanocene dichlorides of biological relevance. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 54(47), https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201508034

Unprecedented asymmetric copper-catalyzed addition of ZnEt2 (ZnBu2) to the exocyclic C[DOUBLE BOND]C bond of pentafulvenes C5H4([DOUBLE BOND]CHAr) (Ar=2-MeOPh and related species) results in enantiomerically enriched (up to 93:7 e.r.) cyclopentadieny...
