An efficient method for the carbon–carbon bond formation at C-5 position of 2-substituted furans to provide a range of π-diverse 5-aryl-2-substituted furan derivatives in 58–80% yield has been reported. The method employs several advantages such as use of catalytic amount of K3[Fe(CN)6] under mild conditions and short reaction time with high yields. Also, a variety of anilines with a variety of functional groups can be employed for the synthesis of 5-aryl-2-substituted furans. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Two series of 5-aryl-furan derivatives bearing a phenylalanine- or isoleucine-derived rhodanine moiety were identified as competitive protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitors. Among the compounds studied, 5g was found to have the best PTP1B inhibitory potency (IC50 = 2.66 ± 0.16 μM) and the best cell division cycle 25 homolog B (CDC25B) inhibitory potency (IC50 = 0.25 ± 0.02 μM). Enzymatic data together with molecular modeling results demonstrated that the introduction of a sec-butyl group at the 2-position of the carboxyl group remarkably improved the PTP1B inhibitory activity.

Serine, the source of the one-carbon units essential for de novo purine and deoxythymidine synthesis plays a crucial role in the growth of cancer cells. Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) which catalyzes the first, rate-limiting step in de novo serine biosynthesis has become a promising target for the cancer treatment. Here we identified H-G6 as a potential PHGDH inhibitor from the screening of an in-house small molecule library based on the enzymatic assay. We adopted activity-directed combinatorial chemical synthesis strategy to optimize this hit compound. Compound b36 was found to be the noncompetitive and the most promising one with IC50 values of 5.96 ± 0.61 μM against PHGDH. Compound b36 inhibited the proliferation of human breast cancer and ovarian cancer cells, reduced intracellular serine synthesis, damaged DNA synthesis, and induced cell cycle arrest. Collectively, our results suggest that b36 is a novel PHGDH inhibitor, which could be a promising modulator to reprogram the serine synthesis pathway and might be a potential anticancer lead worth further exploration.
