- Synthesis of 4-sulfamoylphenyl-benzylamine derivatives with inhibitory activity against human carbonic anhydrase isoforms I, II, IX and XII
-
Imine derivatives were obtained by condensation of sulfanilamide with substituted aromatic aldehydes. The Schiff bases were thereafter reduced with sodium borohydride, leading to the corresponding amines, derivatives of 4-sulfamoylphenyl-benzylamine. These sulfonamides were investigated as inhibitors of the human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms hCA I and II (cytosolic isozymes), as well as hCA IX and XII (transmembrane, tumor-associated enzymes). We noted that the compounds incorporating secondary amine moieties showed a better inhibitory activity against all CA isozymes compared to the corresponding Schiff bases. Low nanomolar CA II, IX and XII inhibitors were detected, whereas the activity against hCA I was less potent. The secondary amines incorporating sulfonamide or similar zinc-binding groups, poorly investigated chemotypes for designing metalloenzyme inhibitors, may offer interesting opportunities in the field due to the facile preparation and possibility to explore a vast chemical space.

- Synthesis, in vitro enzyme activity and molecular docking studies of new benzylamine-sulfonamide derivatives as selective MAO-B inhibitors
-
Many studies have been conducted on the selective inhibition of human monoamine oxidase B (hMAO-B) enzyme using benzylamine-sulphonamide derivatives. Using various chemical modifications on BB-4h, which was reported previously by our team and showed a significant level of MAO-B inhibition, novel benzylamine-sulphonamide derivatives were designed, synthesised, and their MAO inhibition potentials were evaluated. Among the tested derivatives, compounds 4i and 4t achieved IC50 values of 0.041 ± 0.001 μM and 0.065 ± 0.002 μM, respectively. The mechanism of hMAO-B inhibition by compounds 4i and 4t was studied using Lineweaver–Burk plot. The nature of inhibition was also determined to be non-competitive. Cytotoxicity tests were conducted and compounds 4i and 4t were found to be non-toxic. Molecular docking studies were also carried out for compound 4i, which was found as the most potent agent, within hMAO-B catalytic site.

- Bisulfite Addition Compounds as Substrates for Reductive Aminations in Water
-
Highly valued products resulting from reductive aminations utilizing shelf-stable bisulfite addition compounds of aldehydes can be made under aqueous micellar catalysis conditions. Readily available α-picolineborane serves as the stoichiometric hydride source. Recycling of the aqueous reaction medium is easily accomplished, and several applications to targets in the pharmaceutical industry are documented.

- Chemoselective Reductive Aminations in Aqueous Nanoreactors Using Parts per Million Level Pd/C Catalysis
-
Condensation in recyclable water between aldehydes or ketones and amines occurs smoothly within the hydrophobic cores of nanomicelles, resulting in imine formation that is subject to subsequent reduction leading, overall, to reductive amination. This micellar technology enables the synthesis of several types of pharmaceuticals, a new procedure that relies on only 2000 ppm (0.20 mol %) palladium from commercially available Pd/C. A broad range of substrates can be used under mild conditions, leading to high chemical yields of the desired secondary and tertiary amines.

- Main-Group-Catalyzed Reductive Alkylation of Multiply Substituted Amines with Aldehydes Using H2
-
Given the growing demand for green and sustainable chemical processes, the catalytic reductive alkylation of amines with main-group catalysts of low toxicity and molecular hydrogen as the reductant would be an ideal method to functionalize amines. However, such a process remains challenging. Herein, a novel reductive alkylation system using H2 is presented, which proceeds via a tandem reaction that involves the B(2,6-Cl2C6H3)(p-HC6F4)2-catalyzed formation of an imine and the subsequent hydrogenation of this imine catalyzed by a frustrated Lewis pair (FLP). This reductive alkylation reaction generates H2O as the sole byproduct and directly functionalizes amines that bear a remarkably wide range of substituents including carboxyl, hydroxyl, additional amino, primary amide, and primary sulfonamide groups. The synthesis of isoindolinones and aminophthalic anhydrides has also been achieved by a one-pot process that consists of a combination of the present reductive alkylation with an intramolecular amidation and intramolecular dehydration reactions, respectively. The reaction showed a zeroth-order and a first-order dependence on the concentration of an imine intermediate and B(2,6-Cl2C6H3)(p-HC6F4)2, respectively. In addition, the reaction progress was significantly affected by the concentration of H2. These results suggest a possible mechanism in which the heterolysis of H2 is facilitated by the FLP comprising THF and B(2,6-Cl2C6H3)(p-HC6F4)2.

- Oxidative amination of benzylic alkanes with nitrobenzene derivatives as nitrogen sources
-
The oxidative amination of inert C[sbnd]H bonds has the potential to fundamentally change chemistry but is severely limited by the low chemo- and regio-selectivity under oxidation conditions. Until now, no efficient methodology for the direct intermolecular amination of terminal sp3-C[sbnd]H bonds to N-alkyl amines has existed. Here, a new concept is proposed for the oxidative amination of the terminal sp3-C[sbnd]H bond in alkanes via the construction of a complex reaction system composed of a carbon-supported Co-Ni bimetallic catalyst, an alkane, nitrobenzene, tert-butyl hydroperoxide and hydrogen. This system allows the reduction of nitrobenzene to aniline and the further oxidative amination of the alkane. Nitrobenzene and toluene derivatives can be successfully transformed into the corresponding N-benzyl aniline derivatives with up to 95% isolated yields, and the reaction shows excellent functional group tolerance. This approach offers a new concept for catalyst design and may strongly promote the study of inert C[sbnd]H bond activation and the synthesis of functional N-containing compounds.

- Synthesis and carbonic anhydrase I, II, IX and XII inhibition studies of 4-N,N-disubstituted sulfanilamides incorporating 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-oxo-but-1- enyl, phenacylthiourea and imidazol-2(3H)-one/thione moieties
-
A series of sulfonamides incorporating the sulfanilamide (SA) scaffold were prepared. Reaction of the 4-amino moiety of SA with benzyl chlorides or substituted bromoacetophenones afforded the 4-mono-alkylated derivatives which were then reacted with 1,1,1-trifluoro-4-isobutoxybut-3-en-2-one leading to a series of 4-N,N-disubstituted SAs. The key intermediates were also reacted with ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate leading to thioureas or were cyclized in the presence of potassium cyanate/isothiocyanate to the corresponding imidazol-2(3H)-one/thiones. The new compounds were tested as inhibitors of four carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms, the cytosolic CA I and II, and the transmembrane, tumor-associated CA IX and XII. These sulfonamides were ineffective CA I and II inhibitors but were nanomolar CA IX and XII inhibitors, making them of interest as clinical candidates for antitumor/antimetastasis applications.

- Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. Inhibition of human cytosolic isoforms i and II with (reduced) Schiff's bases incorporating sulfonamide, carboxylate and carboxymethyl moieties
-
A library of Schiff bases was synthesized by condensation of aromatic amines incorporating sulfonamide, carboxylic acid or carboxymethyl functionalities as Zn2+-binding groups, with aromatic aldehydes incorporating tert-butyl, hydroxy and/or methoxy groups. The corresponding amines were thereafter obtained by reduction of the imines. These compounds were assayed for the inhibition of two cytosolic human carbonic anhydrase (hCA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoenzymes, hCA I and II. The Ki values of the Schiff bases were in the range of 7.0-21,400 nM against hCA II and of 52-8600 nM against hCA I, respectively. The corresponding amines showed Ki values in the range of 8.6 nM-5.3 μM against hCA II, and of 18.7-251 nM against hCA I, respectively. Unlike the imines, the reduced Schiff bases are stable to hydrolysis and several low-nanomolar inhibitors were detected, most of them incorporating sulfonamide groups. Some carboxylates also showed interesting CA inhibitory properties. Such hydrosoluble derivatives may show pharmacologic applications.
