- Design, synthesis and anticancer evaluation of 3-methyl-1H-indazole derivatives as novel selective bromodomain-containing protein 4 inhibitors
-
Bromodomain-containing Protein 4 (BRD4), an ‘epigenetic reader’, regulates chromatin structure and gene expression via recognizing and binding acetylated lysine in histones. BRD4 has become a therapeutic target for cancers because it promotes the expression of the tumor genes, such as c-Myc, NF-κB, and Bcl-2. In this study, a new series of 3-methyl-1H-indazole derivatives were designed via virtual screening and structure-based optimization. All compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activities to BRD4-BD1 and their antiproliferative effects in cancer cell lines. Among them, several compounds (such as 9d, 9u and 9w) exhibited strong BRD4-BD1 affinities and inhibition activities, and potently suppressed MV4;11 cancer cell line proliferation. Among them, compound 9d showed excellent selectivity for BRD4 and effectively suppressed c-Myc, the downstream protein of BRD4. This study provided new lead compounds for further biological evaluation on BRD4.

- An Environmentally Benign, Catalyst-Free N?C Bond Cleavage/Formation of Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Unactivated Amides
-
Herein, we report an operationally simple, cheap, and catalyst-free method for the transamidation of a diverse range of unactivated amides furnishing the desired products in excellent yields. This protocol is environmentally friendly and operates under extremely mild conditions without using any promoter or additives. Significantly, this strategy has been implied in the chemoselective synthesis of a pharmaceutical molecule, paracetamol, on a gram-scale with excellent yield. We anticipate that this universally applicable strategy will be of great interest in drug discovery, biochemistry, and organic synthesis.

- Acid-catalyzed chemodivergent reactions of 2,2-dimethoxyacetaldehyde and anilines
-
Chemodivergent reactions of 2,2-dimethoxyacetaldehyde and anilines were described, which were established on the basis of either a C[sbnd]C bond cleavage or a rearrangement process of a reaction intermediate. These reactions proceeded in a condition-determined manner with good functional group tolerance. In the first model, 2,2-dimethoxyacetaldehyde reacted with aniline to form a new C[sbnd]N bond, in the presence of O2, via a C[sbnd]C bond cleavage reaction. However, in the second model, by performing the reaction in the absence of O2, Heyns rearrangement occurred and generated a new C[sbnd]O bond to form methyl phenylglycinate. Such condition-determined reactions not only offered the new way for value-added conversion of biomass-derived platform molecule, 2, 2-dimethoxyacetaldehyde, but also provided efficient methods for the synthesis of N-arylformamides and methyl phenylglycinates.

- Selective N-formylation of amines catalysed by Ag NPs festooned over amine functionalized SBA-15 utilizing CO2 as C1 source
-
N-formylation of amines using CO2 as C1 source has been an uphill transformation in the catalysis research as it involves the utilization of abundant thermodyanamically stable and kinetically inert CO2 to form the N-formylated products, which are potential intermediates for the synthesis of valuable chemicals. Previously various noble as well as non-noble metal nanoparticles have been employed for N-formylation of amines. However, herein for the first time we explored N-formylation reaction under lenient conditions utilizing silver nanoparticles, which are decorated over amine functionalized periodically ordered 2D-hexagonal SBA-15 material, serving as a robust heterogeneous catalyst. The AgNPs@SBA-15-NH2 has been intensively characterized by powder XRD, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), FEG-TEM, SEM, XPS, TGA, CO2-TPD, FTIR and UV–vis spectroscopic analyses. This supported AgNPs material showed remarkable catalytic activity for N-formylation over a wide range of amines under 0.5 MPa CO2 pressure and at mild temperature (35 °C) conditions. In addition, this AgNPs@SBA-15-NH2 material exhibited high chemical stability and reusability, suggesting its promising future in the CO2 fixation reactions.

- HCl-mediated transamidation of unactivated formamides using aromatic amines in aqueous media
-
We report transamidation protocol to synthesize a range of secondary and tertiary amides from weakly nucleophilic aromatic and hetero-aryl amines with low reactive formamide derivatives, utilizing hydrochloric acid as catalyst. This current acid mediated strategy is beneficial because it eliminates the need for a metal catalyst, promoter or additives in the reaction, simplifies isolation and purification. Notably, this approach conventionally used to synthesize molecules on gram scales with excellent yields and a high tolerance for functional groups.

- Copper promoted aerobic oxidative c(sp3)-c(sp3) bond cleavage of n-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)-ethyl)anilines
-
A strategy of aerobic oxidative C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond cleavage of N-ethylaniline derivatives bearing azaarenes for the synthesis of N-aryl formamides has been developed. This approach was carried out smoothly with the CuI/TEMPO/air system to give N-aryl formamides in yields of 50-90%. With this methodology, a mutagenically active compound was constructed in 90% yield. Moreover, the reaction also provided a one-pot synthetic tool for accessing a promoter of hematopoietic stem cells by difunctionalization in 61% yield.

- L-Serine?ZnO as an efficient and reusable catalyst for synthesis of cyclic carbonates and formamides in presence of CO2 atmosphere
-
The highly efficient carbon dioxide (CO2) fixation into value-added organic carbonates has gained enormous attention in the last few decades. This work reports, synthesis and characterization of amino acids (AAs) assisted ZnO nano catalyst and Its application for the cyclic carbonates and formamides synthesis with CO2 atmosphere. The prepared catalysts are characterized by IR, SEM, TEM, XRD, DSC-TGA XPS analysis. L-Serine?ZnO exhibits excellent catalytic activity for transformation of CO2 into value-added chemicals namely formamides and cyclic carbonates. The catalytic systems which work in the presence of CO2 balloon atmosphere for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates are rarely explored. This catalytic system shows excellent activity under the CO2 balloon atmosphere for carbonate synthesis. The developed methodology demonstrates broad substrate scope as well as excellent functional group tolerance for carbonates and formamides synthesis. Additionally, the synthesized catalyst was recyclable up to five recycling runs without considerable loss in its catalytic activity, thus makes this protocol cost-effective and sustainable.

- UiO-66 as an efficient catalyst for N-formylation of amines with CO2 and dimethylamine borane as a reducing agent
-
The most effective way to make the best use of CO2, is the reductive formylation of amines, as formamides have many applications in industry. A new protocol has been developed for reductive N-formylation of amines with CO2 as a C1 carbon source and DMAB (Dimethylamine borane) as a reducing agent in the presence of Zr-containing metal–organic framework (MOF) as an efficient, heterogeneous recyclable catalyst. We used UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2 as catalysts for N-formylation of amines and observed that both the catalyst performs equally. Therefore, we continued our studies with UiO-66 as a catalyst. The UiO-66 MOF shows good catalytic activity and affording the desired formamides in good to excellent yield. This catalytic system is very efficient for several amines including primary and secondary aliphatic cyclic and aromatic amines. Moreover, the prepared catalyst was recycled up to four recycled without a considerable decrease in catalytic activity.

- Effective Synthesis of N-Arylformamide from α-Halo-N-arylacetamides
-
A convenient synthetic method for N-arylformamide derivatives was successfully developed by reacting α-iodo-N-arylacetamides with formamide. This method was applicable to α-iodo-N-arylacetamide substrates bearing electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups, N-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-2-iodoacetamide, 2-iodo-N-(pyridin-2-yl)acetamide, and 2-iodo-N-(naphthalen-4-yl)acetamide to give the corresponding N-arylformamides in moderate to excellent yields (65–94%). A plausible mechanism was proposed to account for the new transformation.

- Synthesis of N-arylcarboxamides by the efficient transamidation of DMF and derivatives with anilines
-
A novel protocol for the transamidation of DMF and derivatives with weakly nucleophilic anilines has been developed, utilizing a catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)2 and 2,2′-bipyridine, and with PivOH and BF3·Et2O as additives. This methodology has a broad substrate scope, and various corresponding transamidation products were prepared in good to excellent yields from commercially available DMF derivatives and anilines. The synthetic utility of the reported protocol was further demonstrated with a gram-scale experiment. Control experiments suggested the efficient transformation of DMF and derivatives with anilines might owe to the synergistic effect of palladium complex, PivOH, and BF3·Et2O.

- 3-(αR)-α-((2S,5R)-4-allyl-2,5-dimethyl-1-piperazinyl) -3-hydroxybenzyl)-N-alkyl-N-arylbenzamides: Potent, non-peptidic agonists of both the μ and δ opioid receptors
-
Opioid analgesics with both μ and δ opioid receptor activation represent a new approach to the treatment of severe pain with an improved safety profile. Compounds with this profile may exhibit strong analgesic properties due to μ agonism, with a reduced side effect profile resulting from δ agonism. Replacing the p-diethylamide of the known potent δ opioid receptor selective agonist BW373U86 with a m-diethylamide resulted in a compound with agonist activity at both the μ and δ opioid receptors. Modifying the amide to an N-methyl-N-phenylamide increased agonist potency at both receptors. A series of 3-(αR)-α((2S,5R)-4-allyl-2,5-dimethyl-1-piperazinyl) -3-hydroxybenzyl)-N-alkyl-N-arylbenzamides have been made to explore the structure-activity relationship (SAR) around the N-methyl-N-phenylamide. Several potent agonists of both the μ and δ opioid receptors have been identified, including (+)-3-((αR)-α ((2S,5R)-4-allyl-2,5-dimethyl-1-piperazinyl)-3- hydroxybenzyl)-N-(4-flourophenyl)-N-methylbenzamide (23), which has EC50 values of 0.67 and 1.1 nM at the μ (guinea pig ileum assay) and δ (mouse vas deferens assay) opioid receptors, respectively.

- Prodrugs of neuron-selective monoamine oxidase inhibitors: Amino acid derivatives of 1-(4-aminophenyl)-2-aminopropanes
-
Six amino acid derivatives of 1-(4-aminophenyl)-2-aminopropanes and their parent amines were synthezised and tested for their potency and selectivity in inhibiting monoamine oxidase (MAO) in vitro and in vivo. The amino acid derivatives were 300-1000 times less potent than the parent amines in inhibiting the MAO-A activity in a rat brain mitochondrial preparation in vitro. All compounds, except the (R)-valinamide derivative (22), were potent inhibitors of MAO in the rat brain in vivo and were, like the parent amines markedly more potent within the monoaminergic neurons than in other neurons. The glycinamide derivative 7 showed the largest difference between intra- and extra-neuronal inhibition in serotonergic neurons. The time course of the inhibitory effect of 7 in vivo showed that it is a reversible inhibitor with a long duration.
