Microtubule targeting agents represent a very active arena in the development of anticancer agents. In particular, compounds binding at the colchicine site in tubulin are being deeply studied, and the structural information recently available on this binding site allows structure-directed design of new ligands. Structural comparison of our recently reported high resolution X-Ray structure of the cyclohexanedione derivative TUB075 bound to tubulin and the tubulin-DAMA-colchicine complex has revealed a conformational change in the αT5 loop. By a grid-based computational analysis of the tubulin-DAMA-colchicine binding site, we have identified a new favourable binding area in the colchicine-site that was unexplored by our lead TUB075. Thus, based on a structure-guided design, new cyclohexanedione derivatives have been synthesized and tested for tubulin binding and in cellular assays. As a result, we have identified diphenyl ether derivatives with IC50 values around 10–40 nM against three different tumor cell lines and affinity constants for tubulin similar to that of colchicine around 107 M?1. As expected, they halted the cell cycle progression at G2/M phase at concentrations as low as 0.08 μM.

In this report, we have described a FeCl3-catalyzed process involving intramolecular annulation of o-phenoxy diarylacetylenes via hydroarylation to afford a series of biologically potent fused seven-membered (6-7-6) ring compounds under mild reaction conditions. This reaction was believed to proceed through Friedel-Crafts type sequential carbometallation followed by protonation to produce phenyldibenz[b,f]oxepines. This method was also extended to synthesize seven-membered rings that are fused with coumarins.

Couplings between (hetero)aryl chlorides and phenols can be effectively promoted by CuI in combination with an N-aryl-N′-alkyl-substituted oxalamide ligand to proceed smoothly at 120 °C. For this process, N-aryl-N′-alkyl-substituted oxalamides are more effective ligands than bis(N-aryl)-substituted oxalamides. A wide range of electron-rich and electron-poor aryl and heteroaryl chlorides gave the corresponding coupling products in good yields. Satisfactory conversions were achieved with electron-rich phenols as well as a limited range of electron-poor phenols. Catalyst and ligand loadings as low as 1.5 mol % are sufficient for the scaled-up variants of some of these reactions. Aryl and alkyl: N-Aryl-N′-alkyl-substituted oxalamide ligands promote the CuI catalyzed coupling of (hetero)aryl chlorides and phenols at 120 °C more effectively than bis(N-aryl)-substituted oxalamides. A wide range of electron-rich and electron-poor aryl and heteroaryl chlorides were converted into the corresponding coupling products in good yields.
Design, synthesis and antifungal activity of novel furancarboxamide derivatives
Wen, Fang,Jin, Hong,Tao, Ke,Hou, Taiping
, p. 244 - 251 (2016/05/24)
Twenty-seven novel furancarboxamide derivatives with a diphenyl ether moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their antifungal activity against Rhizoctonia solani, Botrytis cirerea, Valsa Mali and Sphaceloma ampelimum. Antifungal bioassay results indicated that most compounds had good or excellent fungicidal activities for R. solani and S. ampelimum at 20 mg L-1. Among synthesized compounds, compound 18e showed a greater inhibitory effect against S. ampelimum, with half maximal effective concentration (EC50) values of 0.020 mg L-1. This strong activity rivals currently used commercial fungicides, such as Boscalid and Carbendazim, and has great potential as a lead compound for future development of novel fungicides.

Synthesis and bioevaluation of new diaryl ether hybridized quinoline derivatives as antiplasmodial, antibacterial and antifungal agents is reported. It was encouraging to discover that several compounds displayed 2-3 folds better efficacy than chloroquine in chloroquine-resistant K1 strain of Plasmodium falciparum. Further, a few members of the library displayed good antibacterial efficacy against gram positive strains of bacteria but none of the compounds displayed any significant antifungal activity.

The goal of this study was to experimentally test the additivity of the electrostatic substituent effects (SEs) for the aromatic stacking interaction. The additivity of the SEs was assessed using a small molecule model system that could adopt an offset face-to-face aromatic stacking geometry. The intramolecular interactions of these molecular torsional balances were quantitatively measured via the changes in a folded/unfolded conformational equilibrium. Five different types of substituents were examined (CH3, OCH3, Cl, CN, and NO2) that ranged from electron-donating to electron-withdrawing. The strength of the intramolecular stacking interactions was measured for 21 substituted aromatic stacking balances and 21 control balances in chloroform solution. The observed stability trends were consistent with additive SEs. Specifically, additive SE models could predict SEs with an accuracy from ±0.01 to ±0.02 kcal/mol. The additive SEs were consistent with Wheeler and Houk's direct SE model. However, the indirect or polarization SE model cannot be ruled out as it shows similar levels of additivity for two to three substituent systems, which were the number of substituents in our model system. SE additivity also has practical utility as the SEs can be accurately predicted. This should aid in the rational design and optimization of systems that utilize aromatic stacking interactions.

Helical tetrasubstituted alkenes (7) were obtained in a highly efficient way through a palladium-catalyzed domino-carbopalladation/CH-activation reaction of propargylic alcohols 6 in good to excellent yields. Electron-withdrawing- and electron-donating substituents can be introduced onto the upper and lower aromatic rings. The substrates (6) for the domino process were synthesized by addition of the lithiated alkyne (20) to various aldehydes (19); moreover, the substrates were accessible enantioselectively (in 95 % ee) by reduction of the corresponding ketone using the Noyori procedure.

Discovery of dual target inhibitors against cyclooxygenases and leukotriene A4 hydrolyase

Dual target inhibitors against COX-2 and LTA4H were designed by adding functional groups from a marketed COX-2 inhibitor, Nimesulide, to an existing LTA4H inhibitor 1-(2-(4-phenoxyphenoxy) ethyl) pyrrolidine. A series of phenoxyphenyl pyrrolidine compounds were synthesized and tested for their inhibition activities using enzyme assays and human whole blood assay. Introduction of small electron withdrawing groups like NO2 and CF3 in the ortho-position of the terminal phenyl ring was found to change the original single target LTA4H inhibitor to dual target LTA4H and COX-2 inhibitors. Compound 5a and 5m showed dual LTA 4H and COX-2 inhibition activities in the enzyme assays and the HWB assay with IC50 values in the micromolar to submicromolar range. As their activities in HWB assay were comparable to the two starting single target inhibitors, the two compounds are promising for further studies. The strategy used in the current study may be generally applicable to other dual target drug designs.
