- Synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular docking studies of indeno [1, 2-c] pyrazol derivatives as inhibitors of mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase 2 (MDH2)
-
Hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a pivotal transcription factor, which is strongly correlated with the induction of angiogenesis, tumor survival, metastasis, and cell proliferation, making it a pivotal therapeutic target for solid tumor therapeutic agents. Herein, a new series of multi-functional chemical probes were designed including principal groups, viz. adamantyl and indene, at various locations of the parent compound LW6. Molecular docking studies were performed on the designed compounds and their relationship with HIF-1α and malate dehydrogenase 2 (MDH2). Inhibition of MDH2 by our compounds was expected to decrease the NADH level. Indeed, treatment of the breast cancer cell line 4T1 led to a strong reduction of the NADH concentration. The greatest reduction in NADH production in mitochondria was observed with (E)-3-(4-((3r, 5r, 7r)-adamantan-1-yl) phenoxy)-N-(5-(piperidine-1-carbonyl)-1, 4-dihydroindeno [1, 2-c] pyrazol-3-yl) acrylamide (18: IC50 = 59 nM), and has the best inhibitory potential under hypoxic conditions (MCF-7: IC50 = 57 nM). This compound also gave one of the highest docking “higher than the score obtained with LW6 in parallel (?31.63 kcal/mol) in the initial docking runs (PDB Code: 4WLO). Other related compounds with good yields were also synthesized from docking results, and all the synthesized compounds (14, 18, 22, 26, 29, 30) were evaluated in vitro on human adenocarcinoma cell lines.

- Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of a Chiral Ozanimod Key Intermediate Starting from Naphthalene as Cheap Petrochemical Feedstock
-
Ozanimod represents a recently developed, promising active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) molecule in combating multiple sclerosis. Addressing the goal of a scalable, economically attractive, and technically feasible process for the manufacture of this drug, a novel alternative synthetic approach toward (S)-4-cyano-1-aminoindane as a chiral key intermediate for ozanimod has been developed. The total synthesis of this intermediate is based on the utilization of naphthalene as a readily accessible, economically attractive, and thus favorable petrochemical starting material. At first, naphthalene is transformed into 4-carboxy-indanone within a four-step process by means of an initial Birch reduction, followed by an isomerization of the C=C double bond, oxidative C=C cleavage, and intramolecular Friedel-Crafts acylation. The transformation of the 4-carboxy-indanone into (S)-4-cyano-1-aminoindane then represents the key step for introducing the chirality and the desired absolute S configuration. When evaluating complementary biocatalytic approaches based on the use of a lipase and transaminase, respectively, the combination of a chemical reductive amination of the 4-carboxyindanone followed by a subsequent lipase-catalyzed resolution turned out to be the most efficient route, leading to the desired key intermediate (S)-4-cyano-1-aminoindane in satisfactory yield and with excellent enantiomeric excess of 99%.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of 5-substituted 1,4-dihydroindeno[1,2-c]pyrazoles as multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors
-
We report the synthesis and biological evaluation of 5-substituted 1,4-dihydroindeno[1,2-c]pyrazoles as multitargeted kinase inhibitors. Initial efforts focused on the development of selective KDR inhibitors, while later strategies involved the improvement of potency toward multiple kinase targets. Thus, several compounds were identified as potent KDR, Flt1, Flt3, and c-Kit inhibitors.
