- Synthesis, Docking, and Biological activities of novel Metacetamol embedded [1,2,3]-triazole derivatives
-
ERα controls the breast tissue development and progression of breast cancer. In our search for novel compounds to target Estrogen Receptor Alpha Ligand-Binding Domain, we identified “N-(3-((1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)phenyl)acetamide” derivatives as lead compounds. The Docking studies indicated good docking score for Metacetamol derivatives when docked into the 1XP6. A series of metacetamol derivatives have been synthesized, characterized and evaluated for cytotoxicity, anti bacterial and anti oxidant activities. Among the tested twelve hybrid compounds, “7a, 7g, 7h and 7i” derivatives showed promising cytotoxicity with IC50 value of 50 value of 30 μM, whereas Compounds “7a, 7b, 7c, 7d, 7g, 7j, 7k and 7l” showed moderate anti bacterial activity with the MIC value of 300 μM.

- Synthesis and structure activity relationships of cyanopyridone based anti-tuberculosis agents
-
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, relies on thymidylate kinase (MtbTMPK) for the synthesis of thymidine triphosphates and thus also DNA synthesis. Therefore, this enzyme constitutes a potential Achilles heel of the pathogen. Based on a previously reported MtbTMPK 6-aryl-substituted pyridone inhibitor and guided by two co-crystal structures of MtbTMPK with pyridone- and thymine-based inhibitors, we report the synthesis of a series of aryl-shifted cyanopyridone analogues. These compounds generally lacked significant MtbTMPK inhibitory potency, but some analogues did exhibit promising antitubercular activity. Analogue 11i demonstrated a 10-fold increased antitubercular activity (MIC H37Rv, 1.2 μM) compared to literature compound 5. Many analogues with whole-cell antimycobacterial activity were devoid of significant cytotoxicity.

- A General Method for Photocatalytic Decarboxylative Hydroxylation of Carboxylic Acids
-
A general and practical method for decarboxylative hydroxylation of carboxylic acids was developed through visible light-induced photocatalysis using molecular oxygen as the green oxidant. The addition of NaBH4 to in situ reduce the unstable peroxyl radical intermediate much broadened the substrate scope. Different sp3 carbon-bearing carboxylic acids were successfully employed as substrates, including phenylacetic acid-type substrates, as well as aliphatic carboxylic acids. This transformation worked smoothly on primary, secondary, and tertiary carboxylic acids.

- Nanoporous Na+-montmorillonite perchloric acid as an efficient and recyclable catalyst for the chemoselective protection of hydroxyl groups
-
Nanoporous Na+-montmorillonite perchloric acid as a novel heterogeneous reusable solid acid catalyst was easily prepared by treatment of Na+-montmorillonite as a cheap and commercially available support with perchloric acid. The catalyst was characterized using a variety of techniques including X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), pH analysis and determination of the Hammett acidity function. The prepared reagent showed excellent catalytic activity for the chemoselective conversion of alcohols and phenols to their corresponding trimethylsilyl ethers with 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) at room temperature. Deprotection of the resulting trimethylsilyl ethers can also be carried out using the same catalyst in ethanol. All reactions were performed under mild and completely heterogeneous reaction conditions in good to excellent yields. The notable advantages of this protocol are: short reaction times, high yields, availability and low cost of the reagent, easy work-up procedure and the reusability of the catalyst during a simple filtration.

- Novel leucine ureido derivatives as aminopeptidase N inhibitors using click chemistry
-
The over-expression of aminopeptidase N on diverse malignant cells is associated with the tumor angiogenesis and metastasis. In this report, one new series of leucine ureido derivatives containing the triazole moiety was designed, synthesized and evaluated as APN inhibitors. Among them, compound 13v showed the best APN inhibition with an IC50 value of 0.089 ± 0.007 μM, which was two orders of magnitude lower than that of bestatin (IC50 = 9.4 ± 0.5 μM). Compound 13v also showed dose-dependent anti-angiogenesis activities. Even at the lower concentration (10 μM), compound 13v presented similar anti-angiogenesis activity compared with bestatin at 100 μM in both the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) capillary tube formation assay and the rat thoracic aorta rings test. Moreover, compared with bestatin, 13v exhibited comparable, if not better in vivo anti-metastasis activity in a mouse H22 pulmonary metastasis model.

- O-alkylhydroxylamines as rationally-designed mechanism-based inhibitors of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1
-
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO1) is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of cancer, chronic viral infections, and other diseases characterized by pathological immune suppression. Recently important advances have been made in understanding IDO1's catalytic mechanism. Although much remains to be discovered, there is strong evidence that the mechanism proceeds through a heme-iron bound alkylperoxy transition or intermediate state. Accordingly, we explored stable structural mimics of the alkylperoxy species and provide evidence that such structures do mimic the alkylperoxy transition or intermediate state. We discovered that O-benzylhydroxylamine, a commercially available compound, is a potent sub-micromolar inhibitor of IDO1. Structure-activity studies of over forty derivatives of O-benzylhydroxylamine led to further improvement in inhibitor potency, particularly with the addition of halogen atoms to the meta position of the aromatic ring. The most potent derivatives and the lead, O-benzylhydroxylamine, have high ligand efficiency values, which are considered an important criterion for successful drug development. Notably, two of the most potent compounds demonstrated nanomolar-level cell-based potency and limited toxicity. The combination of the simplicity of the structures of these compounds and their excellent cellular activity makes them quite attractive for biological exploration of IDO1 function and antitumor therapeutic applications.

- Preparation, characterization and use of 1,3-disulfonic acid imidazolium hydrogen sulfate as an efficient, halogen-free and reusable ionic liquid catalyst for the trimethylsilyl protection of hydroxyl groups and deprotection of the obtained trimethylsilanes
-
Novel 1,3-disulfonic acid imidazolium hydrogen sulfate, a halogen-free ionic liquid, is a recyclable and eco-benign catalyst for the trimethylsilyl protection of hydroxyl groups at room temperature under solvent free conditions to afford trimethylsilanes in excellent yields (92-100%) and in very short reaction times (1-5 min). Deprotection of the resulting trimethylsilanes can also be achieved using the same catalyst in methanol. The catalyst was characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS studies. All the products were extensively characterized by IR, 1H NMR, MS, and elemental and melting point analyses. This new method consistently has the advantages of excellent yields and short reaction times. Further, the catalyst can be recovered and reused for several times without loss of activity. The work-up of the reaction consists of a simple separation, followed by concentration of the crude product and purification.

- Synthesis and antiparasitic and antitumor activity of 2,4-diamino-6- (arylmethyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinazoline analogues of piritrexim
-
Nineteen previously undescribed 2,4-diamino-6-(arylmethyl)-5,6,7,8- tetrahydroquinazolines (5a-m, 10-12) were synthesized as part of a larger effort to assess the therapeutic potential of lipophilic dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitors against opportunistic infections of AIDS. Condensation of appropriately substituted (arylmethyl)triphenylphosphoranes with 4,4-ethylenedioxycyclohexanone, followed by hydrogenation (H2/Pd-C) and acidolysis, yielded the corresponding 4-(arylmethyl)cyclohexanones, which were then condensed with cyanoguanidine to form the tetrahydroquinazolines. Three simple 2,4-diamino-6-alkyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinazoline model compounds (9a-c) were also prepared in one step from commercially available 4-alkylcyclohexanones by this method. Enzyme inhibition assays against rat liver DHFR, Pneumocystis carinii DHFR, and the bifunctional DHFR-TS enzyme from Toxoplasma gondii were carried out, and the selectivity ratios IC50(rat)/IC50(P. carinii) and IC50(rat)/IC50(T. gondii) were compared. The three most potent inhibitors of P. carinii DHFR were the 2,5- dimethoxybenzyl (5j), 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl (5k), and 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyl (51) analogues, with IC50 values of 0.057, 0.10, and 0.091 μM, respectively. The remaining compounds generally had IC50 values in the 0.1- 1.0 μM range. However all the compounds were more potent against the rat liver enzyme than the P. carinii enzyme and thus were nonselective. The T. gondii enzyme was always more sensitive than the P. carinii enzyme, with most of the analogues giving IC50 values of 0.01-0.1 μM. Moderate 5-10-fold selectivity for T. gondii versus rat liver DHFR was observed with five compounds, the best combination of potency and selectivity being achieved with the 2-methoxybenzyl analogue 5d, which had an IC50 of 0.014 μM and a selectivity ratio of 8.6. One compound (51) was tested for antiproliferative activity against P. carinii trophozoites in culture at a concentration of 10 μg/mL and was found to completely suppress growth over 7 days. The suppressive effect of 51 was the same as that of trimethoprim (10 μg/mL) + sulfamethoxazole (250 μg/mL), a standard clinical combination for the treatment of P. carinii pneumonia in AIDS patients. Four compounds (5a,h,k,l) were tested against T. gondii tachyzoites in culture and were found to have a potency (IC50 = 0.1-0.5 μM) similar to that of pyrimethamine (IC50 = 0.69 μM), a standard clinical agent for the treatment of cerebral toxoplasmosis in AIDS patients. Compound 5h was also active against T. gondii infection in mice when given qdx8 by peritoneal injection at doses ranging from 62.5 (initial dose) to 25 mg/kg. Survival was prolonged to the same degree as with 25 mg/kg clindamycin, another widely used drug against toxoplasmosis. Three compounds (5j-l) were tested for antiproliferative activity against human tumor cells in culture. Among the 25 cell lines in the National Cancer Institute panel for which data were confirmed in two independent experiments, the IC50 for at least two of these compounds was 50 of 50 was 0.01 μM.
