- Flavone inspired discovery of benzylidenebenzofuran-3(2H)-ones (aurones) as potent inhibitors of human protein kinase CK2
-
In this work, we describe the design, synthesis and SAR studies of 2-benzylidenebenzofuran-3-ones (aurones), a new family of potent inhibitors of CK2. A series of aurones have been synthesized. These compounds are structurally related to the synthetic flavones and showed nanomolar activities towards CK2. Biochemical tests revealed that 20 newly synthesized compounds inhibited CK2 with IC50 values in the nanomolar range. Further property-based optimization of aurones was performed, yielding a series of CK2 inhibitors with enhanced lipophilic efficiency. The most potent compound 12m (BFO13) has CLipE = 4.94 (CLogP = 3.5; IC50 = 3.6 nM) commensurable with the best known inhibitors of CK2.

- A Hg(OTf)2-Catalyzed Enolate Umpolung Reaction Enables the Synthesis of Coumaran-3-ones and Indolin-3-ones
-
The potential of mercury catalysis has been extended to the arena of enolate umpolung reactions for the first time by the generation of enolonium species via Hg(OTf)2-catalyzed N-oxide addition to alkynes. The enolonium species formed can undergo intramolecular nucleophilic attack by hydroxyl or amino groups, leading to the synthesis of various coumaran-3-ones and indolin-3-ones.

- Discovery of benzofuran-3(2H)-one derivatives as novel DRAK2 inhibitors that protect islet β-cells from apoptosis
-
Death-associated protein kinase-related apoptosis-inducing kinase-2 (DRAK2) is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a key role in a wide variety of cell death signaling pathways. Inhibition of DRAK2 was found to efficiently protect islet β-cells from apoptosis and hence DRAK2 inhibitors represent a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of diabetes. Only very few chemical entities targeting DRAK2 are currently known. We carried out a high throughput screening and identified compound 4 as a moderate DRAK2 inhibitor with an IC50value of 3.15?μM. Subsequent SAR studies of hit compound 4 led to the development of novel benzofuran-3(2H)-one series of DRAK2 inhibitors with improved potency and favorable selectivity profiles against 26 selected kinases. Importantly, most potent compounds 40 (IC50?=?0.33?μM) and 41 (IC50?=?0.25?μM) were found to protect islet β-cells from apoptosis in dose-dependent manners. These data support the notion that small molecule inhibitors of DRAK2 represents a promising strategy for the treatment of diabetes.

- Total synthesis of the 2-arylbenzo[b]furan-containing natural products from Artocarpus
-
In this study, 2-arylbenzo[b]furan-containing derivatives moracin C (1) and moracin M (4), the natural products from Artocarpus, have been synthesized in highest overall yield to date (1, 7 steps with an overall yield of 41.9%; 4, 6 steps with an overall yield of 56.3%), and we also report the first total synthesis of artoindonesianin B-1 (2), another member of this family, in the same route (8 steps with an overall yield of 11.3%). This discovery provides a concise route for preparing enough amounts of 1, 2, and 4 as well as 2-arylbenzo[b]furan-containing natural product-like analogs (71-74) to explore the biological potential.

- Practical, modular, and general synthesis of 3-coumaranones through gold-catalyzed intermolecular alkyne oxidation strategy
-
A gold-catalyzed intermolecular alkyne oxidation for the preparation of 3-coumaranones has been developed. Using 8-isopropylquinoline N-oxides as oxidants, the reactions of o-ethynylanisoles afford versatile 3-coumaranones in moderate to good isolated yields. The synthetic utility of this chemistry is also indicated by the synthesis of the natural product sulfuretin.

- Synthesis, antibacterial activity, and quantitative structure-activity relationships of new (Z)-2-(nitroimidazolylmethylene)-3(2 H)-benzofuranone derivatives
-
A new series of (Z)-2-(1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole-2-ylmethylene)-3(2 H)-benzofuranones (11a-p) and (Z)-2-(1-methyl-4-nitroimidazole-5-ylmethylene)-3(2 H)-benzofuranones (12a-m) were synthesized and assayed for their antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Most of the 5-nitroimidazole analogues (11a-p) showed a remarkable inhibition of a wide spectrum of Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus epidermidis, MRSA, and Bacillus subtilis) and Gram-negative Klebsiella pneumoniae, whereas 4-nitroimidazole analogues (12a-m) were not effective against selected bacteria. The quantitative structure-activity relationship investigations were applied to find out the correlation between the experimentally evaluated activities with various parameters of the compounds studied. The QSAR models built in this work had reasonable predictive power and could be explained by the observed trends in activities.
