Synthesis of Functionalized Aliphatic Acid Esters via the Generation of Alkyl Radicals from Silylperoxyacetals
We describe a catalytic method for the synthesis of a variety of functionalized aliphatic acid esters using silylperoxyacetals, which are versatile alkyl radical precursors with a terminal ester moiety. In the presence of an appropriate transition-metal catalyst, the in situ generation of alkyl radicals and the subsequent bond-forming process proceeds smoothly to afford synthetically valuable aliphatic acid derivatives. The present method can be applied to the efficient synthesis of a pharmaceutically important 1,1-diarylalkane motif. In addition, a novel strategy for the synthesis of structurally diverse hydroxy acid derivatives via a C?O bond formation process that utilizes TEMPO has been developed.
The present invention relates to certain 2,4-disubstituted quinoline derivatives, to their therapy, as well as to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds. More specifically the invention relates to certain 2,4-disubstituted quinoline derivatives or pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds for the treatment of cancers characterized by overactive Ras and/or Rac or signalling pathway.

Amide analogues of trichostatin A as inhibitors of histone deacetylase and inducers of terminal cell differentiation
Inhibitors of histone deacetylase (HD) bear great potential as new drugs due to their ability to modulate transcription and to induce apoptosis or differentiation in cancer cells. We have described previously analogues of the complex natural HD inhibitors trapoxin B and trichostatin A with activities in the submicromolar range. Here we report structure-activity relationship analyses of further analogues of trichostatin A with respect to in vitro inhibition of maize HD-2 and their ability to induce terminal cell differentiation in Friend leukemic cells. This is the first report that shows the correlation between HD inhibitory activity and action on cancer cells on a larger series of similar compounds. Only the compounds that inhibit HD induce differentiation and/or exert antiproliferative activities in cell culture. Our studies support the use of in vitro systems as screening tools and provide structure-activity relationships that merit further investigation of this interesting target.
