- Dichloro Butenediamides as Irreversible Site-Selective Protein Conjugation Reagent
-
We describe maleic-acid derivatives as robust cysteine-selective reagents for protein labelling with comparable kinetics and superior stability relative to maleimides. Diamide and amido-ester derivatives proved to be efficient protein-labelling species with a common mechanism in which a spontaneous cyclization occurs upon addition to cysteine. Introduction of chlorine atoms in their structures triggers ring hydrolysis or further conjugation with adjacent residues, which results in conjugates that are completely resistant to retro-Michael reactions in the presence of biological thiols and human plasma. By controlling the microenvironment of the reactive site, we can control selectivity towards the hydrolytic pathway, forming homogeneous conjugates. The method is applicable to several scaffolds and enables conjugation of different payloads. The synthetic accessibility of these reagents and the mild conditions required for fast and complete conjugation together with the superior stability of the conjugates make this strategy an important alternative to maleimides in bioconjugation.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel benzylidene-succinimide derivatives as noncytotoxic antiangiogenic inhibitors with anticolorectal cancer activity in vivo
-
A novel series of benzylidene-succinimide derivatives were synthesized, characterized and evaluated for their cytotoxicities against HCT116, and SW480 cancer cells and NCM460 normal human cells. Their antiangiogenic capabilities were evaluated using a chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay. The compound, XCF-37b, was selected as the most potent antiangiogenic inhibitor with noncytotoxicity to evaluate the pharmacological effects on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and cancer cells in vivo and in vitro. The results showed that XCF-37b inhibited HT29-cell colon tumor growth in vivo, without showing cytotoxicity against the five other cancer cell lines in vitro. Experiments confirmed that XCF-37b had obvious antiangiogenic activity by HUVEC migration and invasion and rat aortic ring angiogenesis ex vivo. Mechanism studies showed that XCF-37b inhibited the AKT/mTOR and VEGFR2 signaling pathways, as evidenced by decreased expressions of phosphor-AKT (p-AKT), p-mTOR, p-VEGFR2 (Tyr175), p-Src (Tyr416), p-FAK (Tyr925), and p-Erk1/2 (Thr202/Tyr204). Moreover, XCF-37b significantly decreased the protein expressions of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9 and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). XCF-37b generally regulated angiogenic inhibition through several regulatory pathways, without significantly interfering with colorectal cancer cell growth.

- Acetylcholinesterase inhibition by products generated in situ from the transformation of N-arylisomaleimides
-
When N-arylisomaleimides were transformed under enzymatic reaction conditions, the transformation reaction proved to be influenced by electronic effects. This was demonstrated qualitatively by 1H NMR spectroscopy and quantitatively by monitoring the kinetic of isomerization of N-phenylisomaleimide to N-phenylmaleimide. Subsequently, the first pseudo-order and activation energy (Ea) of the process were determined. The compounds showed in situ influence on AChE inhibition. The derivatives with electron-withdrawing groups exhibited a better effect than those having electron-donating groups. The in silico experiments show that the ligands evaluated established interactions with the CAS site. This suggests that these compounds could be useful for generating better reversible and competitive inhibitors of AChE.

- Continuous efficient production method for high-purity N-substituted maleamic acid
-
The invention belongs to the technical field of fine chemicals and particularly relates to a continuous efficient production method for high-purity N-substituted maleamic acid. The method comprises the following steps: solutions are prepared from primary amine and maleic anhydride respectively by inert solvents in nitrogen protective atmosphere; the two solutions are added to an efficient mixer inproportion for mixing; the mole ratio of primary amine and maleic anhydride is 1:1.0-1.5, a reaction product is treated by a solid-liquid separation unit, and the product amido carboxylic acid is separated; a liquid solution separated out by the solid-liquid separation unit and a liquid solution obtained after separation of the product amido carboxylic acid are used for preparing the primary amine and maleic anhydride solutions circularly. With adoption of the method for continuously and efficiently synthesizing high-purity N-substituted maleamic acid with high yield and high selectivity witha reaction-separation coupling control reaction technology, the adding way of primary amine and maleic anhydride and standing time of a chemical reaction are controlled, and isomerization and Michaeladdition side reactions are avoided effectively through rapid reaction and rapid separation.

- Solvent Influence on the Diels-Alder Reaction Rates of 9-(Hydroxymethyl)anthracene and 9,10-Bis(hydroxymethyl)anthracene with Two Maleimides
-
The rates of the Diels–Alder reaction of 9-(hydroxymethyl)anthracene and 9,10-bis(hydroxymethyl)anthracene with maleic anhydride and two maleimides, N-ethyl- and N-phenylmaleimide, have been studied at various temperatures and pressures in different solvent media. A rate acceleration in water in comparison with organic solvents is observed. Thermodynamic functions of activation for the reaction of 9,10-bis(hydroxymethyl)anthracene with N-ethylmaleimide in binary 1,4-dioxane–water mixtures are determined. From the observed tendencies, it can be concluded that acceleration of the Diels–Alder reactions in water is linked with an energetically favorable dehydration of the reaction centers of the reactants on the way to the activated complex. Addition of an organic cosolvent makes the desolvation of these centers less favorable.

- Four-Component Reaction for the Synthesis of Indolizines by Copper-Catalyzed Aerobic Oxidative Dehydrogenative Aromatization
-
A one-pot, four-component reaction was developed for the synthesis of indolizines from pyridines, α-halide carbonyl compounds, primary amines, and maleic anhydride. The key step in this reaction involved the copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidative aromatization of a tetrahydrogen–indolizine intermediate. Oxygen gas was employed as a clean oxidant to facilitate the catalytic process. Notably, this transformation used readily available starting materials, exhibited broad substrate scope, was easy to handle, and required mild reaction conditions.

- Improvement of thermal properties of poly(vinyl chloride) using chemical blending assisted ultrasonic technique
-
The thermal stabilization of poly(vinyl chloride) through blending techniques has been studied. Poly(vinyl chloride) was blended with modified polymer (cellulose acetate-diallyl amine) in different compositions to improve the thermal stability of poly(vinyl chloride). The thermal stability and morphology of the blend films were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and thermogravimetry. The results revealed that the presence of modified cellulose acetate improved the thermal stability of poly(vinyl chloride). This was attributed to the thermal stable diallylamine moieties among the cellulose acetate chains. The addition of traces of maleimide derivatives to poly(vinyl chloride) prior to the blend process led to an extra thermal stability of the blend film as shown from the values of the initial decomposition temperature (To) measured by thermogravimetry.

- An expeditious synthesis of imides from phthalic, maleic and succinic anhydrides and chemoselective C=C reduction of maleic amide esters
-
Phthalic, maleic and succinic anhydrides have been reacted with aromatic amines to obtain the corresponding monoacid monoamides. The latter have been each transformed into the corresponding cyclic imide derivatives by treating with SOCl2. Alternatively, anhydrides have been reacted with methanolic KOH to obtain monomethyl ester derivatives which on reaction with aromatic amines in the presence of EDC. HCl and HOBt give cyclic imide derivatives. Reaction of monoacid monoamides independently, with SOCl 2 at 0-5°C give the monoamide monoester derivatives. Treatment of monoamide monoester of malic anhydride with NaBH4 leads to the unusual reduction of C=C grouping as well as the carbonyl group of the ester group to from monoamide monoalcohol of succinic anhydride. Preparation of monoamide monoalcohol of succinic anhydride can also be achieved by chemoselective reduction of monoamide monoester of malic anhydride with Mg turnings yielding monoamide monoester of succinic anhydride followed by reduction of the latter with NaBH4.

- Substituent effects on the regioselectivity of maleamic acid formation and hydrogen chloride addition to N-aryl maleimides
-
Itaconic anhydride reacts with aryl amines to give a substituent controlled equilibrium mixture of regioisomeric (Z)-2-methyl- and (Z)-3-methyl-4-oxo-4- (arylamino)but-2-enoic acids. Electron-donating groups favor nucleophilic attack on C-5 carbonyl, while the presence of electron-withdrawing groups enhances the bias for attack on C-2 carbonyl. The treatment of (Z)-2-methyl- and (Z)-3-methyl-4-oxo-4-(arylamino)but-2-enoic acids with SOCl2-Et 3N in THF provided the corresponding maleimides in high yields while under the same conditions the maleic anhydride aryl amine addition products gave predominately the corresponding 3-chloro-1-arylpyrrolidine-2,5-diones and maleimides in substituent dependent ratio.

- Antifungal, cytotoxic and SAR studies of a series of N-alkyl, N-aryl and N-alkylphenyl-1,4-pyrrolediones and related compounds
-
The synthesis, in vitro evaluation and SAR studies of 67 maleimides and derivatives acting as antifungal agents are reported. A detailed SAR study supported by theoretical calculations led us to determine that: an intact maleimido ring appears to be necessary for a strong antifungal activity, dissimilarly affected by the substituents in positions 2 and 3. The best activities were shown by 2,3-nonsubstituted followed by 2,3 dichloro- and 2-methyl-substituted maleimides. They all were fungicide rather than fungistatic enhancing the importance of their antifungal activity. 2,3-Dimethyl and 2,3-diphenyl-maleimides possessed marginal or null activity. The presence of a flexible connecting chain in N-phenylalkyl maleimides appears not to be essential for antifungal activity, although its length shows a correlation with the antifungal behavior, displaying maleimides with alkyl chains of n = 3 and n = 4 the best antifungal activities in most fungi. Different substituents on the benzene ring did not have a clear influence on the activity. Values of chemical potential properties as well as of energy do not sufficiently discriminate between active and inactive compounds. Nevertheless, it was found that, although log P alone is not strong enough to properly predict the antifungal activity, the comparison of its values for compounds within the same sub-type, showed an enhancement of antifungal activity along with an increment of lipophilicity. In addition, the LUMO's electronic clouds of the highly active compounds showed to be concentrated on the imido ring, indicating that their carbon atoms are potential sites for nucleophilic attack. Same results were obtained from MEPs. Most of the active compounds did not show cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines and no one possessed hemolytic activity, indicating that their activity is selective to pathogenic fungi and that they are not toxic at MIC concentrations.

- Chlorin photosensitizers sterically designed to prevent self-aggregation
-
The synthesis and photophysical evaluation of new chlorin derivatives are described. The Diels-Alder reaction between protoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester and substituted maleimides furnishes endo-adducts that completely prevent the self-aggregation of the chlorins. Fluorescence, resonant light scattering (RLS) and 1H NMR experiments, as well as X-ray crystallographic have demonstrated that the configurational arrangement of the synthesized chlorins prevent π-stacking interactions between macrocycles, thus indicating that it is a nonaggregating photosensitizer with high singlet oxygen (ΦΔ) and fluorescence (Φf) quantum yields. Our results show that this type of synthetic strategy may provide the lead to a new generation of PDT photosensitizers.

Activation of the carboxylic acid group of a maleamic acid by treatment with an arenesulfonyl chloride followed by addition of an alcohol affords a fumaramate or a maleamate, depending on the reaction conditions. The E isomer is obtained when the acid is treated with nearly equimolar amounts of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl chloride and an alcohol in pyridine. Replacement of pyridine by 2-picoline and use of a larger excess of activating agent (mesitylenesulfonyl chloride) and alcohol affords the Z isomer. In both cases, high diastereomeric excesses and yields are achieved.

-
Several series of compounds containing the 1,4-dioxo-2-butenyl moiety have been prepared as candidate cytotoxins, including the methyl N-arylmaleamates, methyl N-arylfumaramates, and N-arylmaleimides. In addition, the N-arylisomaleimides were synthesized which are the structural isomers of N-arylmaleimides. These compounds were evaluated against human Molt 4/C8 and CEM T-lymphocytes as well as murine L1210 cells. Methyl N-arylfumaramates showed the highest cytotoxic potencies and, in particular, methyl N-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)fumaramate is six times more potent than melphalan towards L1210 cells and is equipotent with this drug in the Molt 4/C8 assay. Electrophilicity of compounds under investigation was demonstrated by carrying out thiolation using model benzyl mercaptan on representative compounds. Methyl N-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)fumaramate and methyl N-(4-chlorophenyl)maleamate inhibited human N-myristoyltransferase, a possible molecular target, in high micromolar range. QSAR and molecular modeling revealed some correlations between different structural features of a number of the molecules and cytotoxic potencies. Methyl N-arylfumaramates were well tolerated in mice in comparison to the analogs in other series of compounds tested. The data obtained in this investigation affords guidelines for preparing new series of molecules with greater potencies.

N-Phenyl and N-phenylalkyl maleimides (alkyl chain = (CH2)n; n = 0-4) and their respective open derivatives (maleamic acids) were evaluated against Candida spp. with the microbroth dilution method following the guidelines of CLSI (formely NCCLS). MIC values of maleimides without pre-incubation and submitted to different pre-incubation times into the growth media, time-to-kill studies as well as a time-dependent UV-spectroscopy study of the maleimides in water, led to determine that maleimides display antifungal activities with their intact maleimide ring, being in addition their activities not dependent on the length of the alkyl chain. They are not only fungistatic but fungicidal with very low MICs and MFCs, displaying strong fungicide activities not only against standardized but also clinical isolates of Candida albicans and non-albicans Candida spp.

The synthesis, in vitro antifungal evaluation and structure-activity relationship studies of 14 compounds of the N-phenyl-, N-aryl-, N-phenylalkyl- maleimide and 3,4-dichloromaleimide series are reported. The compounds were evaluated against a panel of standardized yeasts and filamentous fungi as well as clinical isolates of Candida albicans. The activities of N-phenylalkyl-3,4- dichloromaleimide derivatives but not those of N-phenylalkyl-maleimide derivatives showed to be dependent on the length of the alkyl chain. N-Phenylpropyl-3,4-dichloromaleimide showed the broadest spectrum of action and lower minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) in all of the fungi tested. The nitrogen-carbon distance between the two rings seems to play an important role in the antifungal behavior of these compounds. The most active structure showed inhibited (1,3)β-D-glucan and chitin synthases, enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of the major fungal cell-wall polymers.

- Rational Design of an Indolebutanoic Acid Derivative as a Novel Aldose Reductase Inhibitor Based on Docking and 3D QSAR Studies of Phenethylamine Derivatives
-
A series of 45 phenethylamine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against pig kidney aldose reductase (ALR2, EC 1.1.1.21). Their IC50 values ranged from 400 μM to 24 μM. The binding modes of compounds at the active site of ALR2 were examined using flexible docking. The results indicated that phenethylamine derivatives nicely fit into the active pocket of ALR2 by forming various hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. 3D-QSAR analysis was also conducted using FlexX-docked alignment of the compounds. The best prediction was obtained by CoMSIA combined with hydrophobic and hydrogen bond donor/acceptor field (q 2 = 0.557, r2 = 0.934). A new derivative, 4-oxo-4-(4-hydroxyindole)butanoic acid, was designed, taking into account the CoMSIA field and the binding mode derived by FlexX docking. This rationally designed compound exhibits an ALR2 inhibition with an IC50 value of 7.4 μM, which compares favorably to that of a well-known ALR2 inhibitor, tolrestat (IC50 = 16 μM) and represents a potency approximately 240-fold higher than that of an original phenethylamine lead compound, YUA001.

- First triphenylphosphine promoted reduction of maleimides to succinimides
-
Triphenylphosphine (TPP) in refluxing methanol effectively reduces maleimides 1a-g to the corresponding succinimides 2a-g in good yields. It was observed that some maleimides obtained from aromatic halogen compounds 1h-j were transformed into the corresponding succinamic acid methyl esters 3a-c by this reaction.

- Synthesis and antimicrobial activities of N-substituted imides
-
In the field of our research programs concerning novel antimicrobial agents, a series of N-substituted imides was synthesized. These compounds were obtained by cyclization of amido-acids in acetic anhydride/sodium acetate or hexamethyldisilazane/zinc bromide for the hydroxy-aromatic derivatives. The hydroxy-alkyl maleimides were directly prepared by condensation of the corresponding amino-alcohol with maleic anhydride in boiling toluene. Most of N-substituted maleimides showed an interesting antimicrobial activity towards bacteria from the ATCC collection (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853) but the MIC values for P. aeruginosa were always high (128 μg/ml). The imides with alkyl substituents showed higher activities than aromatic analogues with MIC values in the range of 8-32 μg/ml. Comparatively, succinimides were practically inactive.

- Non-hydroxylic clathrate hosts of [4 + 2]π cycloadducts of phencyclone and N-arylmaleimides: Recognition of aromatic guests
-
A series of non-hydroxylic crystalline host compounds, [4 + 2]π cycloadducts of phencyclone and N-arylmaleimides having a bicyclo[2.2.1]heptene-7-one system, was synthesized and their inclusion behavior investigated. X-Ray crystal analyses of the inclusion compounds of the N-(1-naphthyl) derivative with butan-2-one, the N-(m-tolyl) derivative with p-xylene, together with the guest-free host and the N-(p-tolyl) derivative with m-xylene indicate that the "space" surrounded by the phenanthrene ring, two phenyl rings and bridge carbonyl of the 1,3-diphenyl-1,3-dihydrocyclopenta[l]phenanthren-2-one moiety plays an important role, not only in the formation of inclusion complexes with the aromatic guests but also in host-host interactions. In every case, the N-aryl succinimide assists complex formation with the guests, in which the weak lattice forces due to C-H ... π and C-H ... O interactions are operative. Methyl-substituted benzenes are effectively recognized by the C-H ... π interactions between the guest molecules and the phenanthrene ring of the hosts.

- Effect of cyclodextrin on the intramolecular catalysis of amide hydrolysis
-
The hydrolysis reaction of phthalamic acids (HOOCArCONHR, R = p-NO2Ph 1a, Ph 1b, adamantyl 1c) and N-phenyl maleamic acid 2b was studied in the presence of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPCD) in acid solution. The reactions of 1a and 1b were studied also in the presence of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). All the compounds formed inclusion complexes with HPCD, and the association constant was determined from the change in absorption of the substrate when the host is added in the case of 1a (90 M-1) and 2b (49 M-1). For 1c (4 × 104 M-1) a competition method was used, and for 1b the association equilibrium constant was obtained from the kinetic data (37 M-1) because it is too reactive for the spectrophotometric method. Both cyclodextrins strongly inhibited the reactions, and analysis of the kinetic data for HPCD indicated that the reactions of complexed 1a, 1b, and 2b are at least 10-30 times slower than in the bulk solution whereas 1c reacts only 4.6 times slower when it is complexed. The inhibition is attributed to changes in the geometry of the substrate due to interaction of the carboxylic group and/or the amide with the OH at the rim of the cyclodextrin. The differences in the relative effect observed for 1c are attributed to the formation of a tighter complex with this substrate.

- Cyclodextrin effect on intramolecular catalysis
-
HPCD inhibits the hydrolysis reaction of monoamides and monoesters of phthalic and maleic acid at pH 2. The magnitude of inhibition depends on the leaving group. For some of the substrates, the reaction in the cavity is more than 100 times slower than that in solution.

- Inter-Ring Torsions in N-Phenylmaleimide and Its o-Halo Derivatives: An Experimental and Computational Study
-
Structures of N-phenylmaleimide and its o-halophenyl derivatives have been determined in the solid state and show the angle between the phenyl and pyrolinyl ring planes to vary from 49.5° to 83.9° with increasing values for compounds with the larger ortho halophenyl substituents (H F ≤ Cl ≤ Br I). Experimental torsions and trends in the series are supported by semiempirical AM1 and ab initio SCF, DFT, and MP2 calculations. Calculations (AM1) on N-phenylmaleimide modeling the torsional deformation between the rings show that the barrier to planarity has a lower energy than that through a perpendicular conformation. In its o-halo derivatives, molecular planarity is not possible, and torsional deformation proceeds through the perpendicular conformation with diminishing, possibly vanishing, barriers with increasing halogen size. For chloro, bromo, and iodo derivatives, twisted ground-state molecular conformations reside in broad minima essentially centered around the perpendicular conformations. The unusually strong, longer wavelength electronic bands observed in the solution spectra of the series were modeled by Zindo/S CIS computations at the optimum AM1 molecular geometries. The observed lower energy (285-305 nm) band for the parent through the o-bromo derivative appears to arise from a {n(O,N); π (phenyl)} → π*(maleimide) transition. The next higher energy (250-285 nm) band appears to be essentially a phenyl π Ρ π* transition. In the o-iodo derivative, a phenyl π → * (C-I) transition appears to contribute to the longer wavelength band. Trends in the observed electronic spectra in acetonitrile within the series of compounds accord roughly with the results of the computations.

- Preparation of N-aryl-substituted spiro-β-lactams via staudinger cycloaddition
-
The interest in the study of β-lactams continues due to their therapeutic importance as antibiotics. In this work, six spiro-β-lactams (7a-7c, 8a-8c) have been prepared using the [2+2] cycloaddition of isomaleimides to acid chlorides. The heterobicyclic structures obtained have been characterized by mass spectrometry, IR, NMR spectroscopy, and for compounds 7a, 7b, and 8b the X-ray crystallographic study showed a nearly planar arrangement for the β-lactam ring.

- Montmorillonite clay catalysis. Part 10. K-10 and KSF-catalysed acylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols and amines: Scope and limitation
-
Montmorillonite K-10 and KSF are highly efficient catalysts for the acetylation of a variety of alcohols, thiols, phenols and amines with acetic anhydride. Amino groups can be selectively acetylated in the presence of hydroxy groups, while the hydroxy groups can be preferentially acetylated in the presence of thiol groups. No selectivity is observed between primary and secondary hydroxy groups in the presence of K-10 and KSF. The catalysts are found not to be efficient for acetylation of tertiary alcohols. This method is simple and convenient with minimum environmental impact. The catalysts are also effective for the acylation of alcohols, thiols, phenols and amines with acetyl chloride and benzoyl chloride. Cyclic anhydrides such as succinic anhydride, maleic anhydride and phthalic anhydride and p-toluene sulfonyl chloride show less reactivity than acetic anhydride and acyl chlorides.

- Synthesis of new succinimides and sulphonated derivatives with analgesic action in mice
-
Recently, we have investigated the chemistry and biology of cyclic imides and have used phyllanthimide to obtain several analogues such as maleimides, succinimides and related compounds, which have demonstrated analgesic activity, amongst other properties. The work presented here describes the synthesis of new succinimides and their sulphonated derivatives. These substances were confirmed as having analgesic activity through abdominal constriction tests in mice. The results showed that some of the compounds, given intraperitoneally at a dose of 10 mg kg-1, were more effective than aspirin and paracetamol.
