- Synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular docking studies of novel 1,2,3-triazole-quinazolines as antiproliferative agents displaying ERK inhibitory activity
-
ERK1/2 inhibitors have attracted special attention concerning the ability of circumventing cases of innate or log-term acquired resistance to RAF and MEK kinase inhibitors. Based on the 4-aminoquinazoline pharmacophore of kinases, herein we describe the synthesis of 4-aminoquinazoline derivatives bearing a 1,2,3-triazole stable core to bridge different aromatic and heterocyclic rings using copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC) as a Click Chemistry strategy. The initial screening of twelve derivatives in tumoral cells (CAL-27, HN13, HGC-27, and BT-20) revealed that the most active in BT-20 cells (25a, IC50 24.6 μM and a SI of 3.25) contains a more polar side chain (sulfone). Furthermore, compound 25a promoted a significant release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), suggesting the induction of cell death by necrosis. In addition, this compound induced G0/G1 stalling in BT-20 cells, which was accompanied by a decrease in the S phase. Western blot analysis of the levels of p-STAT3, p-ERK, PARP, p53 and cleaved caspase-3 revealed p-ERK1/2 and p-STA3 were drastically decreased in BT-20 cells under 25a incubation, suggesting the involvement of these two kinases in the mechanisms underlying 25a-induced cell cycle arrest, besides loss of proliferation and viability of the breast cancer cell. Molecular docking simulations using the ERK-ulixertinib crystallographic complex showed compound 25a could potentially compete with ATP for binding to ERK in a slightly higher affinity than the reference ERK1/2 inhibitor. Further in silico analyses showed comparable toxicity and pharmacokinetic profiles for compound 25a in relation to ulixertinib.

- Novel amide analogues of quinazoline carboxylate display selective antiproliferative activity and potent EGFR inhibition
-
In the present study, a novel series of quinazoline derivatives is developed for cancer therapy. All the synthesised analogues were evaluated against a panel of 60 human cancer cell lines for the antiproliferative activity. Significant and selective growth inhibition of several solid tumour cell lines such as NCI-H322M, NCI-H522 (non-small cell lung cancer), IGROV1, SK-OV-3 (ovarian cancer), TK-10 (renal cancer) and MDA-MB-468 (breast cancer) was observed. Further, all the new amide analogues strongly inhibited EGFR in low nanomolar range with morpholino quinazoline 10 producing activity (IC50 = 6.12 nM) comparable to standard drugs erlotinib and gefitinib. In addition, western blot analysis depicted inhibition of phosphorylation of EGFR by compounds 10 and 11 in MDA-MB-468 cells at 10 μM. Molecular docking studies showed the strong binding interactions with the active site of the EGFR protein. The current investigation could be extremely helpful for the development of newer therapeutically useful quinazoline based molecules for cancer therapy.

- Fluorine-containing 6,7-dialkoxybiaryl-based inhibitors for phosphodiesterase 10 A: Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of inhibitory potency, selectivity, and metabolism
-
Based on the potent phosphodiesterase 10 A (PDE10A) inhibitor PQ-10, we synthesized 32 derivatives to determine relationships between their molecular structure and binding properties. Their roles as potential positron emission tomography (PET) ligands were evaluated, as well as their inhibitory potency toward PDE10A and other PDEs, and their metabolic stability was determined in vitro. According to our findings, halo-alkyl substituents at position 2 of the quinazoline moiety and/or halo-alkyloxy substituents at positions 6 or 7 affect not only the compounds′ affinity, but also their selectivity toward PDE10A. As a result of substituting the methoxy group for a monofluoroethoxy or difluoroethoxy group at position 6 of the quinazoline ring, the selectivity for PDE10A over PDE3A increased. The same result was obtained by 6,7-difluoride substitution on the quinoxaline moiety. Finally, fluorinated compounds (R)-7-(fluoromethoxy)-6-methoxy-4-(3-(quinoxaline-2-yloxy)pyrrolidine-1-yl) quinazoline (16 a), 19 a-d, (R)-tert-butyl-3-(6-fluoroquinoxalin-2-yloxy) pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (29), and 35 (IC50 PDE10A 11-65 nM) showed the highest inhibitory potential. Further, fluoroethoxy substitution at position 7 of the quinazoline ring improved metabolic stability over that of the lead structure PQ-10. Fluor your health: Phosphodiesterase 10 A (PDE10A) has emerged as an attractive target for the development of 18F-labelled brain imaging agents for positron emission tomography. A series of fluorinated dialkoxybiaryl compounds were synthesized and evaluated as PDE10A inhibitors, assisted by QSAR docking studies. The 7-fluoromethoxy derivative appears to be a promising candidate for further development.

- Facile and efficient oxidation of quinazolines into quinazolin-4(3 H)-ones by peracetic acid
-
A new approach to synthesize quinazoline-4(3H)-ones was achieved by oxidation of quinazolines using peracetic acid, which possesses some advantages of economic reagents, simplified operation, high efficiency, and environmental friendliness. Application of this method allowed us to synthesize a series of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones with different substituents at 6 and 7 positions in good to excellent yields, including the key intermediates of tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as PD153035, Erlotinib, and Gefitinib.

- Use of structure-based design to discover a potent, selective, in vivo active phosphodiesterase 10A inhibitor lead series for the treatment of schizophrenia
-
Utilizing structure-based virtual library design and scoring, a novel chimeric series of phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) inhibitors was discovered by synergizing binding site interactions and ADME properties of two chemotypes. Virtual libraries were docked and scored for potential binding ability, followed by visual inspection to prioritize analogs for parallel and directed synthesis. The process yielded highly potent and selective compounds such as 16. New X-ray cocrystal structures enabled rational design of substituents that resulted in the successful optimization of physical properties to produce in vivo activity and to modulate microsomal clearance and permeability.

- Potent and Selective Inhibitors of Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor Phosphorylation. 3. Replacement of Quinazoline Moiety and Improvement of Metabolic Polymorphism of 4-[4-(N-Substituted (thio)carbamoyl)-1-piperazinyl]-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline Derivatives
-
We have previously reported that a series of 4-[4-(N-substituted (thio)carbamoyl)-1-piperazinyl]-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline derivatives were potent and selective inhibitors of platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) phosphorylation and demonstrated several biological effects such as suppression of neointima formation following balloon injury in rat carotid artery by oral administration. Here, we investigated structure-activity relationships of the 6,7-dimethoxyquinazolinyl moiety. In regard to 6,7-dimethoxy groups, ethoxy analogues showed potent activity (IC50 of 16b is 0.04 μM; IC50 of 17a is 0.01 μM) and further extension of the alkyl group reduced activity. Interestingly, methoxyethoxy (IC50 of 16j is 0.02μM; IC50 of 17h is 0.01 μM) and ethoxyethoxy (IC50 of 17j is 0.02 μM) analogues showed the most potent activity, suggesting that the inserted oxygen atom significantly interacts with β-PDGFR. Among tricyclic quinazoline derivatives, the 2-oxoimidazo[4,5-e]quinazoline derivative 21a showed potent activity (IC 50 = 0.10 μM). Regarding replacements of quinazoline by other heterocyclic rings, pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (39a, IC50 = 0.17 μM) and quinoline (IC50 of 40a is 0.18 μM; IC50 of 40b is 0.09 μM) derivatives showed potent activity. Isoquinoline and some pyridopyrimidine derivatives were completely inactive; therefore, 1-aza has an important role. Also 7-aza and 8-aza substitution on the parent quinazoline ring has a detrimental effect on the interaction with β-PDGFR. We also demonstrated that the substituents on the quinazoline ring possess major consequences for metabolic polymorphism. Although there existed extensive metabolizers and poor metabolizers in Sprague-Dawley rats administrated 6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline derivatives (1b and 1c), 6-(2-methoxy)ethoxy-7-methoxyquinazoline analogue 16k showed no metabolic polymorphism.
