Inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation is a prospective therapeutic strategy for uncontrolled inflammatory diseases. It is the first time that dronedarone, a multiply ion channel blocker, was identified as a NLRP3-inflammasome inhibitor with an IC50 value of 6.84 μM against IL-1β release. A series of novel 5-amide benzofuran derivatives were designed and synthesized as NLRP3-inflammasome inhibitors. Compound 8c showed slightly increased activity (IC50 = 3.85 μM) against IL-1β release. Notably, treatment with 8c could significantly inhibit NLRP3-mediated IL-1β release and ameliorate peritoneal inflammation in a mouse model of sepsis. Collectively, 8c is a promising lead compound for further chemical development as a NLRP3 inhibitor with anti-inflammation effects.

The Chematica program was used to autonomously design synthetic pathways to eight structurally diverse targets, including seven commercially valuable bioactive substances and one natural product. All of these computer-planned routes were successfully executed in the laboratory and offer significant yield improvements and cost savings over previous approaches, provide alternatives to patented routes, or produce targets that were not synthesized previously. Although computers have demonstrated the ability to challenge humans in various games of strategy, their use in the automated planning of organic syntheses remains unprecedented. As a result of the impact that such a tool could have on the synthetic community, the past half century has seen numerous attempts to create in silico chemical intelligence. However, there has not been a successful demonstration of a synthetic route designed by machine and then executed in the laboratory. Here, we describe an experiment where the software program Chematica designed syntheses leading to eight commercially valuable and/or medicinally relevant targets; in each case tested, Chematica significantly improved on previous approaches or identified efficient routes to targets for which previous synthetic attempts had failed. These results indicate that now and in the future, chemists can finally benefit from having an “in silico colleague” that constantly learns, never forgets, and will never retire. Multistep synthetic routes to eight structurally diverse and medicinally relevant targets were planned autonomously by the Chematica computer program, which combines expert chemical knowledge with network-search and artificial-intelligence algorithms. All of the proposed syntheses were successfully executed in the laboratory and offer substantial yield improvements and cost savings over previous approaches or provide the first documented route to a given target. These results provide the long-awaited validation of a computer program in practically relevant synthetic design.

We report a new method for the efficient and rapid synthesis of (2-butyl-5-nitrobenzo[b]furan-3-yl)[4- (substituted ethynyl)phenyl]methanones using a Pd-Cu catalyzed microwave-assisted Sonogashira coupling reaction. In comparison to the conventional heating procedure, the time of synthesis and effort are significantly reduced in the present method, without side-product formation. Microwave irradiation considerably accelerated the formation of (2-butyl-5-nitrobenzo[b]furan-3-yl)[4-(substituted ethynyl)phenyl]methanone analogues.

Six potential process related impurities were detected during the impurity profile study of an antiarrhythmic drug substance, Dronedarone (1). Simple high performance liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry methods were used for the detection of these process impurities. Based on the synthesis and spectral data (MS, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and DEPT), the structures of these impurities were characterized a s 5-amino-3-[4-(3-di-n-butylaminopropoxy)benzoyl]-2-n-butylbenzofuran (impurity I); N-(2-butyl-3-(4-(3-(dibutylamino)propoxy)-benzoyl)benzofuran-5-yl)-N- (methylsulfonyl)-methanesulfonamide (impurity II); N-(2-butyl-3-(4-(3- (dibutylamino)propoxy)benzoyl)benzofuran-5-yl)-1-chloromethanesulfonamide (impurity III); N-{2-propyl-3-[4-(3-dibutylaminopropoxy)benzoyl]benzofuran-5-yl} - methanesulfonamide (impurity IV); N-(2-butyl-3-(4-(3-(dibutylamino)propoxy) benzoyl)benzofuran-5-yl)-formamide (impurity V); and (2-butyl-5-((3- (dibutylamino)propyl)amino)benzofuran-3-yl)(4-(3- (dibutylamino)propoxy)phenyl) methanone (impurity VI).

An improved, high-yielding, and efficient process for the production of dronedarone hydrochloride (1), a class III antiarrhythmia drug for the prevention of cardiac arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation (AF) is described. The developed process avoids isolation of unstable intermediates at several stages by telescoping the steps upon individual optimization, thereby minimizing the turnaround time of the batch cycle and increasing the throughput. Potential impurities (byproducts) arise during the reaction at various stages, and carry-over impurities from starting materials were controlled selectively by designing reaction conditions and suitable workup procedures, resulting in an increased overall yield from 33% (as per processes reported in the literature) to 66%.
