- Identification of 2-((2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)amino)-N-phenylpropanamides as a novel class of potent DprE1 inhibitors
-
The identification of a novel series of DprE1 inhibitors based on a 2-((2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)amino)-N-phenylpropanamide scaffold is described herein. SAR exploration around the HTS hit 1 led to the identification of multiple analogues with potent DprE1 inhibition and good whole-cell antimycobacterial activity.

- Substituted Pyridazin-3(2 H)-ones as Highly Potent and Biased Formyl Peptide Receptor Agonists
-
Herein we describe the development of a focused series of functionalized pyridazin-3(2H)-one-based formyl peptide receptor (FPR) agonists that demonstrate high potency and biased agonism. The compounds described demonstrated biased activation of prosurvival signaling, ERK1/2 phosphorylation, through diminution of the detrimental FPR1/2-mediated intracellular calcium (Cai2+) mobilization. Compound 50 showed an EC50 of 0.083 μM for phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and an approximate 20-fold bias away from Cai2+ mobilization at the hFPR1.

- Copper-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Secondary α-Haloamides with Terminal Alkynes: Access to Diverse 2,3-Allenamides
-
A copper-catalyzed C(sp)?C(sp3) cross-coupling of terminal alkynes with readily available secondary α-haloamides for the efficient synthesis of 2,3-allenamides is realized. The methodology is characterized by its wide substrate scope, which makes it an important complement to traditional methods for synthesizing allenes. A mechanism involving an alkynylcopper species is proposed. (Figure presented.).

- Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activity of 2-(4-(Hydroxyalkyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-N-substituted propanamides
-
A series of 21 2-(4-(hydroxyalkyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-N-substituted propanamides (1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles having amide linkage and hydroxyl group) have been synthesized from click reaction between terminal alkyne and 2-azido-N-substituted propanamide (generated in situ from reaction of 2-bromo-N-substituted propanamide and sodium azide) and characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy, and HRMS. All the newly synthesized triazoles were tested in vitro for antimicrobial activity against four bacterial cultures – Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Staphylococcus aureus – and two fungal cultures – Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger. The synthesized 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles displayed moderate to good antimicrobial potential against the tested strains.

- Design and synthesis of new 8-anilide theophylline derivatives as bronchodilators and antibacterial agents
-
Theophylline derivatives have long been recognized as potent bronchodilators for the relief of acute asthma. Recently, it was found that bacterial infection has a role in asthma pathogenesis. The present work involves the design and synthesis of 8-substituted theophylline derivatives as bronchodilators and antibacterial agents. The chemical structures of these compounds were elucidated by IR, 1H-NMR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analyses. The bronchodilator activity was evaluated using acetylcholine-induced bronchospasm in guinea pigs, and most of the compounds showed significant anti-bronchoconstrictive activity in comparison with standard aminophylline. In addition, the antibacterial activity of all the target compounds was investigated in vitro against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria using ampicillin as a reference drug. Results showed that some of the tested compounds possessed significant antibacterial activity. A pharmacophore model was computed to obtain useful insight into the essential structural features of bronchodilator activity. A structure activity relationship was also discussed.

- Synthesis, enantioresolution, and activity profile of chiral 6-methyl-2,4-disubstituted pyridazin-3(2H)-ones as potent N-formyl peptide receptor agonists
-
A series of chiral pyridazin-3(2H)-ones was synthesized, separated as pure enantiomers, and evaluated for N-formyl peptide receptor (FPR) agonist activity. Characterization of the purified enantiomers using combined chiral HPLC and chiroptical studies (circular dichroism, allowed unambiguous assignment of the absolute configuration for each pair of enantiomers). Evaluation of the ability of racemic mixtures and purified enantiomers to stimulate intracellular Ca 2+ flux in FPR-transfected HL-60 cells and human neutrophils and to induce β-arrestin recruitment in FPR-transfected CHO-K1 cells showed that many enantiomers were potent agonists, inducing responses in the sub-micromolar to nanomolar range. Furthermore, FPRs exhibited enantiomer selectivity, generally preferring the R-(-)-forms over the S-(+)-enantiomers. Finally, we found that elongation of the carbon chain in the chiral center of the active compounds generally increased biological activity. Thus, these studies provide important new information regarding molecular features involved in FPR ligand preference and report the identification of a novel series of FPR agonists.
