With approximately 37 million people living with HIV worldwide and an estimated 2 million new infections reported each year, the need to derive novel strategies aimed at eradicating HIV-1 infection remains a critical worldwide challenge. One potential strategy would involve eliminating infected cells via antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). HIV-1 has evolved sophisticated mechanisms to conceal epitopes located in its envelope glycoprotein (Env) that are recognized by ADCC-mediating antibodies present in sera from HIV-1 infected individuals. Our aim is to circumvent this evasion via the development of small molecules that expose relevant anti-Env epitopes and sensitize HIV-1 infected cells to ADCC. Rapid elaboration of an initial screening hit using parallel synthesis and structure-based optimization has led to the development of potent small molecules that elicit this humoral response. Efforts to increase the ADCC activity of this class of small molecules with the aim of increasing their therapeutic potential was based on our recent cocrystal structures with gp120 core.

The Curtius rearrangement and related reactions are often used to convert carboxylic acids to the corresponding primary amines. However, this reaction often requires harsh conditions for hydrolysis of the isocyanate intermediates to amines, and can also be contaminated by the formation of corresponding ureas due to the reactive nature of the intermediates. We have discovered that by quenching the isocyanate intermediates with sodium trimethylsilanolate, the free amines can be isolated after aqueous workup. This mild and fast procedure provides free amines in one pot with good yields.
