- Identification of novel 1,3-diaryl-1,2,4-triazole-capped histone deacetylase 6 inhibitors with potential anti-gastric cancer activity
-
Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) has emerged as a critical regulator of many cellular pathways in tumors due to its unique structure basis and abundant substrate types. Over the past few decades, the role played by HDAC6 inhibitors as anticancer agents has sparked great interest of biochemists worldwide. However, they were less reported for gastric cancer therapy. In this paper, with the help of bioisosteric replacement, in-house library screening, and lead optimization strategies, we designed, synthesized and verified a series of 1,3-diaryl-1,2,4-triazole-capped HDAC6 inhibitors with promising anti-gastric cancer activities. Amongst, compound 9r displayed the best inhibitory activity towards HDAC6 (IC50 = 30.6 nM), with 128-fold selectivity over HDAC1. Further BLI and CETSA assay proved the high affinity of 9r to HDAC6. In addition, 9r could dose-dependently upregulate the levels of acetylated α-tubulin, without significant effect on acetylated histone H3 in MGC803 cells. Besides, 9r exhibited potent antiproliferative effect on MGC803 cells, and promoted apoptosis and suppressed the metastasis without obvious toxicity, suggesting 9r would serve as a potential lead compound for the development of novel therapeutic agents of gastric cancer.

- Mn(III)-mediated phosphinoylation of aldehyde hydrazones: Direct “one-pot” synthesis of α-iminophosphine oxides from aldehydes
-
A “one-pot” strategy for the straightforward Mn(III)-mediated phosphinoylation of aldehyde hydrazones with diphenylphosphine oxide to furnish α-iminophosphine oxides is described. This mild and practical method allows the direct use of aldehydes as substrates in one pot to generate the hydrazones, which are then engaged “in situ” by the phosphorus reagent in the presence of Mn(OAc)3 oxidant. Thus, the requisite isolation of the hydrazones is not needed in this operation. Conducted mechanistic experiments implicate a pathway involving phosphorus-centered radicals.

- Broad-Spectrum Antifungal Agents: Fluorinated Aryl- and Heteroaryl-Substituted Hydrazones
-
Fluorinated aryl- and heteroaryl-substituted monohydrazones displayed excellent broad-spectrum activity against various fungal strains, including a panel of clinically relevant Candida auris strains relative to a control antifungal agent, voriconazole (VRC). These monohydrazones displayed less hemolysis of murine red blood cells than that of VRC at the same concentrations, possessed fungicidal activity in a time-kill study, and exhibited no mammalian cell cytotoxicity. In addition, these monohydrazones prevented the formation of biofilms that otherwise block antibiotic effectiveness and did not trigger the development of resistance when exposed to C. auris AR Bank # 0390 over 15 passages.

- Stereospecific copper(II)-catalyzed tandem ring opening/oxidative alkylation of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with hydrazones: Synthesis of tetrahydropyridazines
-
Aerobic copper(II)-catalyzed tandem ring opening and oxidative C-H alkylation of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with bisaryl hydrazones is accomplished to produce tetrahydropyridazines, in which copper(II) plays dual role as a Lewis acid as well as redox catalyst. The reaction is stereospecific, and optically active cyclopropanes can be reacted with high optical purities (89-98% enantiomeric excess). The substrate scope, functional group tolerance, dual role of the copper(II) catalyst, and the use of air as an oxidant are the important practical features. A product bearing a 3-bromoaryl group can be subjected to Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling with boronic acid in high yield.

- Facile synthesis of pyrazoles by iron-catalyzed regioselective cyclization of hydrazone and 1,2-diol under ligand-free conditions
-
A facile synthesis of pyrazoles by the cyclization of hydrazones and 1,2-diols was described. In the presence of ferric nitrate, the reaction occurs under neat conditions and makes the use of potassium persulfate to oxidize the diol to α-hydroxy carbaldehyde for the reaction with hydrazones to produce 1,3- and 1,3,5-substituted pyrazoles selectively. The overall regioselective transformation occurs in one-pot under ligand-free, mild conditions even in the presence of air.

- Spirotriazoline oxindoles: A novel chemical scaffold with in vitro anticancer properties
-
The design and synthesis of a library of twenty-six spirotriazoline oxindoles and their in vitro evaluation as potential anticancer agents is reported. The antiproliferative activity of the synthesized compounds was assessed against four different cancer cell lines (HCT-116 p53 (+/+), HCT-116 p53 (?/?), MCF-7, and MDA-MB-231). Four spirotriazoline oxindoles showed selectivity against the four cancer cell lines tested over the non-cancer derived HEK 293T cell line. To characterize the molecular mechanisms involved in compound antitumoral activity, two spirotriazoline oxindoles were selected for further studies. Both compounds were able to induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and upregulated p53 steady-state levels, while decreasing its main inhibitor MDM2, in HCT-116 cells. Importantly, cytotoxic effects induced by spirotriazoline oxindoles occurred in cancer cells without eliciting cell death in non-malignant CCD-18Co human colon fibroblasts. In addition, four spirotriazoline oxindoles showed selectivity against the triple-negative breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 with IC50 values of 3.5–6.7 μM. These results highlight the anticancer potential of spirotriazoline oxindoles, especially when dealing with aggressive and challenging triple-negative breast cancer.

1,3,4,5-Tetrasubstituted pyrazoles are rapidly and regioselectively synthesized in a one-pot, three-step sequence consisting of condensation, nitrilimine generation, and cycloaddition using mercuric acetate. Newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral studies. Regiochemistry of compounds 6a and 8a was determined as 1,4- and 1,5-regioisomers respectively by X-ray crystallography. Copyright

- A one-pot synthesis of bisarylhydrazones by Cu(I)-catalyzed aerobic oxidation
-
An efficient Cu(I)-catalyzed one-pot synthesis of N-substituted (or NH) bisarylhydrazones is reported. A further cyclization reaction could occur towards the synthesis of benzimidazoles or triazoles with elevated temperature. A plausible alkylation-oxidation-alkylation mechanism is proposed based on experimental results and literature.

-
An efficient method for the transformation of N-benzyl bisarylhydrazones and bisaryloxime ethers to functionalized 2-aryl-N-benzylbenzimidazoles and 2-arylbenzoxazoles is described. The protocol involves a copper(II)-mediated cascade C-H functionalization/C-N/C-O bond formation under neutral conditions. Substrates having either electron-donating or -withdrawing substituents undergo the cyclization to afford the target heterocycles at moderate temperature.
