- Alkyne Linchpin Strategy for Drug:Pharmacophore Conjugation: Experimental and Computational Realization of a Meta-Selective Inverse Sonogashira Coupling
-
The late-stage functionalization (LSF) of pharmaceutical and agrochemical compounds by the site-selective activation of C-H bonds provides access to diverse structural analogs and expands synthetically-accessible chemical space. We report a C-H functionalization LSF strategy that hinges on the use of an alkyne linchpin to assemble conjugates of sp2-rich marketed pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals with sp3-rich 3D fragments and natural products. This is accomplished through a template-assisted inverse Sonogashira reaction that displays high levels of selectivity for the meta position. This protocol is also amenable to distal structural modifications of α-amino acids. The transformation of alkyne functionality to other functional groups further highlights the applicative potential. Computational and experimental mechanistic studies shed light on the detailed mechanism. Turnover-limiting 1,2-migratory insertion of the bromoalkyne coupling partner occurs after relatively fast C-H activation. While this insertion occurs unselectively, regioconvergence results from one of the adducts undergoing a 1,2-trialkylsilyl migration to form the alkynylated product. A heterobimetallic Pd-Ag transition structure is essential for product formation in the β-bromide elimination step.

- Rhodium-Catalyzed meta-C?H Functionalization of Arenes
-
Rhodium-catalyzed ortho-C?H functionalization is well known in the literature. Described herein is the Xphos-supported rhodium catalysis of meta-C?H olefination of benzylsulfonic acid and phenyl acetic acid frameworks with the assistance of a para-methoxy-substituted cyano phenol as the directing group. Complete mono-selectivity is observed for both scaffolds. A wide range of olefins and functional groups attached to arene are tolerated in this protocol.

- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel N-sulfonylamidine-based derivatives as c-Met inhibitors via Cu-catalyzed three-component reaction
-
In our continuing efforts to develop novel c-Met inhibitors as potential anticancer candidates, a series of new N-sulfonylamidine derivatives were designed, synthesized via Cu-catalyzed multicomponent reaction (MCR) as the key step, and evaluated for their in vitro biological activities against c-Met kinase and four cancer cell lines (A549, HT-29, MKN-45 and MDA-MB-231). Most of the target compounds showed moderate to significant potency at both the enzyme-based and cell-based assay and possessed selectivity for A549 and HT-29 cancer cell lines. The preliminary SAR studies demonstrated that compound 26af (c-Met IC50 = 2.89 nM) was the most promising compound compared with the positive foretinib, which exhibited the remarkable antiproliferative activities, with IC50 values ranging from 0.28 to 0.72 μM. Mechanistic studies of 26af showed the anticancer activity was closely related to the blocking phosphorylation of c-Met, leading to cell cycle arresting at G2/M phase and apoptosis of A549 cells by a concentration-dependent manner. The promising compound 26af was further identified as a relatively selective inhibitor of c-Met kinase, which also possessed an acceptable safety profile and favorable pharmacokinetic properties in BALB/c mouse. The favorable drug-likeness of 26af suggested that N-sulfonylamidines may be used as a promising scaffold for antitumor drug development. Additionally, the docking study and molecular dynamics simulations of 26af revealed a common mode of interaction with the binding site of c-Met. These positive results indicated that compound 26af is a potential anti-cancer candidate for clinical trials, and deserves further development as a selective c-Met inhibitor.

- Optimization of P2Y12 Antagonist Ethyl 6-(4-((Benzylsulfonyl)carbamoyl)piperidin-1-yl)-5-cyano-2-methylnicotinate (AZD1283) Led to the Discovery of an Oral Antiplatelet Agent with Improved Druglike Properties
-
P2Y12 antagonists are widely used as antiplatelet agents for the prevention and treatment of arterial thrombosis. Based on the scaffold of a known P2Y12 antagonist AZD1283, a series of novel bicyclic pyridine derivatives were designed and synthesized. The cyclization of the ester substituent on the pyridine ring to the ortho-methyl group led to lactone analogues of AZD1283 that showed significantly enhanced metabolic stability in subsequent structure-pharmacokinetic relationship studies. The metabolic stability was further enhanced by adding a 4-methyl substituent to the piperidinyl moiety. Compound 58l displayed potent inhibition of platelet aggregation in vitro as well as antithrombotic efficacy in a rat ferric chloride model. Moreover, 58l showed a safety profile that was superior to what was observed for clopidogrel in a rat tail-bleeding model. These results support the further evaluation of compound 58l as a promising drug candidate.

- Design, synthesis and evaluation of sulfonylurea-containing 4-phenoxyquinolines as highly selective c-Met kinase inhibitors
-
Deregulation of receptor tyrosine kinase c-Met has been reported in human cancers and is considered as an attractive target for small molecule drug discovery. In this study, a series of 4-phenoxyquinoline derivatives bearing sulfonylurea moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their c-Met kinase inhibition and cytotoxicity against tested four cell lines in vitro. The pharmacological data indicated that most of the tested compounds showed moderate to significant potency as compared with foretinib, with the most promising compound 13x (c-Met kinase IC50 = 1.98 nM) demonstrated relatively good selectivity versus 10 other tyrosine kinases and remarkable cytotoxicities against HT460, MKN-45, HT-29 and MDA-MB-231 with IC50 values of 0.055 μM, 0.064 μM, 0.16 μM and 0.49 μM, respectively. The preliminary structure activity relationships indicated that a sulfonylurea moiety as linker as well as mono-EGWs (such as R1 = 4-F) on the terminal phenyl rings contributed to the antitumor activity.

- Photocatalytic Radical Alkylation of Electrophilic Olefins by Benzylic and Alkylic Zinc-Sulfinates
-
Alkyl radicals are obtained by photocatalytic oxidation of readily prepared or commercially available zinc sulfinates. The convenient benzylation and alkylation of a variety of electron-poor olefins triggered by the iridium(III) complex 6 Ir[dF(CF3)ppy]2(dtbbpy)PF6 as photocatalyst is described. Moreover, it is shown that zinc sulfinates can be used for facile nonradical sulfonylation reactions with highly electrophilic Michael acceptors.

- Palladium-Catalyzed Remote meta-Selective C-H Bond Silylation and Germanylation
-
Selective meta-C-H activation of arenes to date has met with a limited number of functionalizations. Expanding the horizon of meta-C-H functionalization, herein we disclose an unprecedented meta-silylation and -germanylation protocol by employing a simple nitrile-based directing template. Longer linkers between the target site and the directing template were successfully explored for meta-silylation (sp2-? and sp2-ζ). Additionally, synthetic utility was demonstrated with several postsynthetic elaborations and with a formal synthesis of TAC101, a promising drug for the treatment of lung cancer.

- Tert -Butyl Hypochlorite Mediated Oxidative Chlorination of S -Alkylisothiourea Salts: Synthesis of Sulfonyl Chlorides
-
Under neutral conditions, a variety of S-alkylisothiourea salts were smoothly converted into the corresponding sulfonyl chlorides through tert-butyl chlorite mediated oxidative chlorination in good to excellent yields after simple purification. In addition to the environmental and procedural advantages of this method, the neutral conditions potentially make it applicable to substrates that bear acid-sensitive functional groups. For example, the Cbz-protected 2-aminoethanesulfonyl chloride could be synthesized in moderate to good yields under the current neutral conditions, and the acid-sensitive Cbz-protecting group was not affected.

A convenient, practical, and environmentally friendly method for the synthesis of sulfonyl chlorides has been developed. Structurally diverse sulfonyl chlorides were synthesized in moderate to excellent yields from S-alkylisothiourea salts, which can be easily prepared from readily accessible alkyl halides or mesylates and inexpensive thiourea, via N-chlorosuccinimide chlorosulfonation. In large-scale syntheses, the byproduct succinimide from 'waste water' can be conveniently converted into the starting reagent N-chlorosuccinimide with sodium hypochlorite (bleach) to make the method sustainable.
