- C8-Linked Pyrrolobenzodiazepine Monomers with Inverted Building Blocks Show Selective Activity against Multidrug Resistant Gram-Positive Bacteria
-
Antimicrobial resistance has become a major global concern. Development of novel antimicrobial agents for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug resistant (MDR) pathogens is an urgent priority. Pyrrolobenzodiazepines (PBDs) are a promising class of antibacterial agents initially discovered and isolated from natural sources. Recently, C8-linked PBD biaryl conjugates have been shown to be active against some MDR Gram-positive strains. To explore the role of building block orientations on antibacterial activity and obtain structure activity relationship (SAR) information, four novel structures were synthesized in which the building blocks of previously reported compounds were inverted, and their antibacterial activity was studied. The compounds showed minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) in the range of 0.125-32 μg/mL against MDR Gram-positive strains with a bactericidal mode of action. The results showed that a single inversion of amide bonds reduces the activity while the double inversion restores the activity against MDR pathogens. All inverted compounds did not stabilize DNA and lacked eukaryotic toxicity. The compounds inhibit DNA gyrase in vitro, and the most potent compound was equally active against both wild-Type and mutant DNA gyrase in a biochemical assay. The observed activity of the compounds against methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains with equivalent gyrase mutations is consistent with gyrase inhibition being the mechanism of action in vivo, although this has not been definitively confirmed in whole cells. This conclusion is supported by a molecular modeling study showing interaction of the compounds with wild-Type and mutant gyrases. This study provides important SAR information about this new class of antibacterial agents.

- Scale-up Synthesis of Tesirine
-
This work describes the enabling synthesis of tesirine, a pyrrolobenzodiazepine antibody-drug conjugate drug-linker. Over the course of four synthetic campaigns, the discovery route was developed and scaled up to provide a robust manufacturing process. Early intermediates were produced on a kilogram scale and at high purity, without chromatography. Midstage reactions were optimized to minimize impurity formation. Late stage material was produced and purified using a small number of key high-pressure chromatography steps, ultimately resulting in a 169 g batch after 34 steps. At the time of writing, tesirine is the drug-linker component of eight antibody-drug conjugates in multiple clinical trials, four of them pivotal.

- Reversible Control of Protein Localization in Living Cells Using a Photocaged-Photocleavable Chemical Dimerizer
-
Many dynamic biological processes are regulated by protein-protein interactions and protein localization. Experimental techniques to probe such processes with temporal and spatial precision include photoactivatable proteins and chemically induced dimerization (CID) of proteins. CID has been used to study several cellular events, especially cell signaling networks, which are often reversible. However, chemical dimerizers that can be both rapidly activated and deactivated with high spatiotemporal resolution are currently limited. Herein, we present a novel chemical inducer of protein dimerization that can be rapidly turned on and off using single pulses of light at two orthogonal wavelengths. We demonstrate the utility of this molecule by controlling peroxisome transport and mitotic checkpoint signaling in living cells. Our system highlights and enhances the spatiotemporal control offered by CID. This tool addresses biological questions on subcellular levels by controlling protein-protein interactions.

- Photodegradable self-assembling PAMAM dendrons for gene delivery involving dendriplex formation and phototriggered circular DNA release
-
For effective gene delivery, structural degradation of synthetic carriers is crucial to the release of nucleic acids on the transfection time scale. In this study, we have synthesized the amphiphilic dendritic scaffolds with a photolabile o-nitrobenzyl (o-NB) group that can enable the structural decomposition and controlled release of nucleic acids under active light stimulation. The amphiphilic counterpart composed of a lipophilic cholesterol and a hydrophilic poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendron allows the self-assembly into a core-shell-like pseudodendrimer above the critical aggregation concentration (CAC) of approximately 20 μM. On the basis of electrostatic interaction, the polycationic pseudodendrimers are capable of forming stable complexes with polyanionic cyclic reporter genes under low charge excess values, suggesting substantial binding affinity of the dendron assembly toward circular DNA. Because the o-NB group in the dendritic structure undergoes efficient photolytic cleavage, an in vitro test shows that thus-formed "dendriplexes" are readily dissociated under 365 nm light irradiation, causing effective dendron degradation accompanied by DNA release. This photochemical strategy provides an opportunity to control gene binding and release in a spatiotemporal manner.

- Gas/Solid Reactions with Nitrogen Dioxide
-
Numerous gas/solid reactions of nitrogen dioxide with organic substrates are investigated preparatively and mechanistically.Gaseous NO2 reacts with crystalline stable free radicals (nitroxyls 1, verdazyl 6) by electron transfer.The nitrite ions formed are irreversibly oxidized by NO2 via oxygen atom transfer.Solid cation nitrates are formed quantitatively.Thione bonds of thiohydantoins 8 are transformed to carbonyl bonds with formation of sulfur and NO presumably via nitrites as intermediates.Hydantoin 13 oxygenates at its free 5-methylene group via C-H abstraction and nitrite or it undergoes N-1 nitration via N-H abstraction depending on the conditions.Both reactions proceed quantitatively. 1,3-Oxazolidin-2-one (15) gives N-nitration and N-nitrosation with the NO produced.Nonenolized crystalline barbituric acids 17 are quantitatively nitrated (C-N bond formation with radicals) at their methylene groups. 4-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (19) and vanilline (22) give quantitative aromatic nitration (C-N bond formation with arenes) without melting.All possible regioisomers are formed.Solid 9-methylanthracene (26) gives a quantitative yield of its 10-nitro derivative 27.Crystalline anthracene (28) and gaseous NO2 yield 3 primary products 29 (cis; trans) and the new dimeric product 30 as well as the stable secondary products 31 and 32.The gas/solid tetranitration of tetraphenylethylene (33) is severely hindered by the water of reaction.However, a 95percent yield of pure tetrakis(p-nitrophenyl)ethylene is obtained if the drying agent MgSO4*2H2O is admixed and the product 34 extracted.The gas/solid procedures avoid solvents and fuming nitric acid.They give pure products without necessity for recrystallization in most cases and they avoid wastes.Atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements on prominent faces of single crystals of 1a, 11a, 28, and 33 reveal phase rebuildings with well-directed long-range molecular transport.Nanoliquids were only present on (110) of 28.The characteristic AFM features are correlated with known X-ray crystal structure data and compared with previous results.The shape of the features depends on the molecular packing in the crystal bulk and on the molecular shapes.Molecular interpretations of the AFM features are given.

- Regioselective cleavage reaction of the aromatic methylenedioxy ring. V. Cleavage with sodium alkoxides-alcohols, potassium tert-butoxide-alcohols, dimsyl anion-methyl alcohol, metallic sodium-alcohols, and sodium cyanide in dipolra aprotic solvents
-
The reaction of aromatic methylenedioxy compounds containing electron-withdrawing groups with dimsyl anion-methyl alcohol, potassium tert-butoxide-alcohols, and metallic sodium-alcohols in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and with sodium alkoxides-alcohols in hexamethylphosphoramide, gave 3- and 4-hydroxybenzene derivatives in good yield by regioselective attack of the alkoxide ions on the methylenedioxy ring. The formation mechanism of alkoxide ions and the effect of DMSO in the cleavage reaction of the methylenedioxy ring are discussed on the basis of proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectra. The reactions of aromatic methylenedioxy compounds (3 and 22) with sodium cyanide in dipolar aprotic solvents gave 4-cyano-3-hydroxybenzene derivatives (23 and 24) by regioselective attack of the cyanide ion on the methylenedioxy ring. The reactions of aromatic methylenedioxy compounds (28-30) containing no electron-withdrawing group with MeONa-MeOH in dipolar aprotic solvents gave non-regioselective cleavage products (31 and 34).
