- Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship of Dual-Stage Antimalarial Pyrazolo[3,4- b]pyridines
-
Malaria remains one of the most deadly infectious diseases, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths each year, primarily in young children and pregnant mothers. Here, we report the discovery and derivatization of a series of pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines targeting Plasmodium falciparum, the deadliest species of the malaria parasite. Hit compounds in this series display sub-micromolar in vitro activity against the intraerythrocytic stage of the parasite as well as little to no toxicity against the human fibroblast BJ and liver HepG2 cell lines. In addition, our hit compounds show good activity against the liver stage of the parasite but little activity against the gametocyte stage. Parasitological profiles, including rate of killing, docking, and molecular dynamics studies, suggest that our compounds may target the Qo binding site of cytochrome bc1.

- Method for preparing ketone nitrile by using metalloporphyrin polymer for catalytic coupling of aromatic alcohol and acetonitrile
-
The invention discloses a method for preparing ketone nitrile by using a metalloporphyrin polymer for catalytic coupling of aromatic alcohol and acetonitrile. The porous polymeric metalloporphyrin having a high poriform structure and a specific surface area and connected by a nitrogen-containing bridge bond and containing 2 coordination metal ions is selected as a catalyst, and aromatic alcohol and acetonitrile are subjected to catalytic oxidation coupling under mild condition to obtain the corresponding ketone nitrile product. The catalyst amount is less, and the catalysis effect is good. Thecatalyst is un-dissolved and un-decomposed in a reaction system, multitime cycle usage is realized, a reaction conversion rate is high, and the selectivity is good.

- Integration of aqueous biphasic with magnetically recyclable systems: Polyethylene glycol-grafted Fe3O4 nanoparticles catalyzed phenacyl synthesis in water
-
The present work trends to define an efficient phenacyl catalytic synthesis method employing a new nano-magnetite-supported organocatalyst. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) was bonded successfully onto silica coated ferrite and the resultant nanoparticles (PEG@SiO2@Fe3O4) characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) that exhibited a good catalytic activity in the reaction. The nanoparticles could be easily separated from the reaction mixture by an external magnet and reused in seven reaction cycles without significant loss of activity.

- Specific 1,2-Hydride Shift in the Boron Trifluoride Catalyzed Reactions of Aromatic Aldehydes with Diazoacetonitrile: Simple Synthesis of β-Ketonitriles
-
A series of β-ketonitriles was synthesized within 30 min under mild conditions through the BF3 ·OEt2-catalyzed addition reactions of diazoacetonitrile to aromatic aldehydes and subsequent 1,2-hydride shift. This method is advantageous in that it is operationally simple, mild and metal-free conditions are used, the substrate scope is wide, and the products are obtained in moderate to high yields (up to 81 %). Additionally, γ,δ-unsaturated β-ketonitriles are also accessible by this method by using cinnamaldehydes.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of 3-aryl-quinoxaline-2- carbonitrile 1,4-Di-N-oxide derivatives as hypoxic selective anti-tumor agents
-
A series of 3-aryl-2-quinoxaline-carbonitrile 1,4-di-N-oxide derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for hypoxic and normoxic cytotoxic activity against human SMMC-7721, K562, KB, A549 and PC-3 cell lines. Many of these new compounds displayed more potent hypoxic cytotoxic activity compared with TX-402 and TPZ in the tumor cells based evaluation, which confirmed our hypothesis that the replacement of the 3-amine with the substituted aryl ring of TX-402 increases the hypoxic anti-tumor activity. The preliminary SAR revealed that 3-chloro was a favorable substituent in the phenyl ring for hypoxic cytotoxicity and 7-methyl or 7-methoxy substituted derivatives exhibited better hypoxic selectivity against most of the tested cell lines. The most potent compound, 7-methyl-3-(3-chlorophenyl)-quinoxaline-2-carbonitrile 1,4-dioxide (9h) was selected for further anti-tumor evaluation and mechanistic study. It also exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against BEL-7402, HepG2, HL-60, NCI-H460, HCT-116 and CHP126 cell lines in hypoxia with IC50 values ranging from 0.31 to 3.16 μM, and preliminary mechanism study revealed that 9h induced apoptosis in a caspase-dependent pathway.

- Efficient Lipase-Catalyzed Kinetic Resolution and Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of β-Hydroxy Nitriles. Correction of Absolute Configuration and Transformation to Chiral β-Hydroxy Acids and γ-Amino Alcohols
-
Chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution of β-hydroxy nitriles 1 has been carried out using Candida antarctica lipase B and a ruthenium catalyst. The use of a hydrogen source to depress ketone formation in the dynamic kinetic resolution yields the corresponding acetates 2 in good yield and high enantioselectivity. It is shown that the ruthenium catalyst and the enzyme can be recycled when used in separate reactions. We also report on the preparation of various enantiomerically pure β-hydroxy acid derivatives and γ-amino alcohols from 1 and 2. The latter compounds were also used to establish the correct absolute configuration of 1 and 2.

- Allosteric modulation of the adenosine A1 receptor. Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 2-amino-3-benzoylthiophenes as allosteric enhancers of agonist binding
-
Novel allosteric enhancers of agonist binding to the rat adenosine A1 receptor are described. The lead compound for the new series was PD 81,723 ((2-amino-4,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methanone), a compound previously reported by Bruns and co-workers (Mol. Pharmacol. 1990, 38, 950-958). The 4,5-dimethyl group and the benzoyl moiety were targets for further modifications, leading to series of 4,5-dialkyl (12a-g), of tetrahydrobenzo (12h-u), and of tetrahydropyridine (13a-g) derivatives. A number of compounds, in particular 12b, 12e, 12j, 12n, and 12u, proved superior to PD 81,723. Their EC50 values for enhancing the binding of the adenosine A1 receptor agonist N6-cyclopentyladenosine to the receptor were lower, and/or their antagonistic activity on the adenosine A1 receptor was shown to be diminished.

- Steric and electronic control in the addition of hydrazine and phenylhydrazine to α-[(dimethylamino)methylene]-β-oxoarylpropanenitriles
-
Reaction of hydrazine with α-[(dimethylamino)methylene]-β-oxoarylpropanenitriles 2 gives a mixture of the 4-aroyl-5-aminopyrazoles 3 and the 5-aryl-4-cyanopyrazoles 4. Similarly reaction of 2 with phenylhydrazine gives rise to the 5-amino-4-aroyl-1-phenylpyrazoles 5 and 5-aryl-4-cyano-1-phenylpyrazoles 6. The regioselectivity of addition has been investigated with respect to the electronic nature and steric requirements of the aromatic substitution. The ratio of products was found to be independent of the electronic nature of the substituent. The outcome of the reaction was however very sensitive to steric factors. Substituents in the para- and meta-positions favoured formation of the pyrazole-nitrile products 4 and 6, whereas sterically demanding ortho-substituents favoured the pyrazole-amino ketones 3 and 5.

- Tyrphostins. 2. Heterocyclic and α-Substituted Benzylidenemalonitrile Tyrphostins as Potent Inhibitors of EGF Receptor and ErbB2/neu Tyrosine Kinases
-
We have previously described a novel series of low molecular weight protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors which we named tyrphostins.The characteristic active pharmacophore of these compounds was the hydroxy-cis-benzylidenemalonitrile moiety.In this article we describe three novel groups of tyrphostins: (i) one group has the phenolic moiety of the cis-benzylidenemalononitrile replaced either with other substituted benzenes or with heteroaromatic rings, (ii) another is a series of conformationally constrained derivatives of hydroxy-cis-benzylidenemalononitriles in which the malononitrile moiety is fixed relative to the aromatic ring, and (iii) two groups of compounds in which the position trans to the benzenemalononitrile has been substituted by ketones and amides.Among the novel tyrphostins examined we found inhibitors which discriminate between the highly homologous EGF receptor kinase (HER1) and ErbB2/neu kinase (HER2).These findings may lead to selective tyrosine kinase blockers for the treatment of diseases in which ErbB2/neu is involved.

In a series of phenyl-substituted analogues, only o-, m-, and p-fluorobenzoylacetonitrile and m- and p-fluoro-β-aminocinnamonitrile retained activity. Additionally, β-amino-2- and β-amino-3-thiopheneacrylonitrile and β-oxo-2- and β-oxo-3-thiophenepropionitrile exhibited similar activity. These agents are not believed to be acting via prostaglandin synthetase inhibition. The metabolic profile of benzoylacetonitrile is also described.
