- Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationships of Arylsulfonamides as AIMP2-DX2 Inhibitors for the Development of a Novel Anticancer Therapy
-
AIMP2-DX2, a splicing variant of AIMP2, is up-regulated in lung cancer, possesses oncogenic activity, and results in tumorigenesis. Specifically inhibiting the interaction between AIMP2-DX2 and HSP70 to suppress AIMP2-DX2-dependent cancers with small molecules is considered a promising avenue for cancer therapeutics. Optimization of hit BC-DXI-04 (IC50 = 40.1 μM) provided new potent sulfonamide based AIMP2-DX2 inhibitors. Among these, BC-DXI-843 showed improved inhibition against AIMP2-DX2 (IC50 = 0.92 μM) with more than 100-fold selectivity over AIMP2 in a luciferase assay. Several binding assays indicated that this compound effectively induces cancer cell apoptosis by specifically interrupting the interaction between DX2 and HSP70, which leads to the degradation of DX2 via Siah1-mediated ubiquitination. More importantly, BC-DXI-843 demonstrated in vivo efficacy in a tumor xenograft mouse model (H460 cells) at a dosage of 50 mg/kg, suggesting it as a promising lead for development of novel therapeutics targeting AIMP2-DX2 in lung cancer.

- Iodine-Catalyzed Synthesis of Chiral 4-Imidazolidinones Using α-Amino Acid Derivatives via Dehydrogenative N-H/C(sp3)-H Coupling
-
An efficient method for the asymmetric synthesis of 4-imidazolidinones via an iodine-catalyzed intramolecular N-H/C(sp3)-H activation of readily available and abundant feedstocks, amino acids, and amines is described. The reaction proceeded under visible light irradiation to afford a variety of 4-imidazolidinone derivatives under mild conditions in moderate to excellent yields. Secondary and tertiary C(sp3)-H bonds were aminated, and various functional groups were tolerated.

- Metal-Free N–H/C–H Coupling for Efficient Asymmetric Synthesis of Chiral Dihydroquinoxalinones from Readily Available α-Amino Acids
-
We have developed a method for the synthesis of dihydroquinoxalinones via intramolecular N–H/C–H coupling using hypervalent iodine. The starting materials were prepared from inexpensive and readily available aniline and amino acid derivatives. Various functional groups were tolerated to give multisubstituted dihydroquinoxalinones in moderate to excellent yields. The chirality of the amino acid was transferred to the desired target compound without a loss of enantiomeric excess. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that the reaction proceeds via an ionic mechanism.

- Stereoselective synthesis and applications of nitrogen substituted donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (N-DACs) in the divergent synthesis of azacycles
-
A new, highly stereoselective intramolecular cyclopropanation of vinylogous carbamates with carbenes in the presence of Cu(acac)2 as the catalyst has been developed for the construction of cyclopropapyrrolidinones. The 'syn' isomer of N-DAC can be converted to the 'anti' isomer by simple silica gel treatment. Regioselective cleavage of each of the cyclopropane bonds of these two acceptor substituted N-DACs led to a diverse array of azacycles.
