- Design, modification of phyllanthone derivatives as anti-diabetic and cytotoxic agents
-
Twelve benzylidene derivatives, one Baeyer-Villiger oxidative, six imine derivatives were successfully designed and synthesised from phyllanthone. In the search for potential new anti-diabetic agents, phyllanthone along with its benzylidene and oxidation analogues were evaluated for enzyme inhibition against α-glucosidase. In the benzylidene series, most analogues displayed stronger activity than the mother compound. Compound 1c revealed the strongest activity, outperforming the acarbose positive control with an IC50 value of 19.59 μM. Phyllanthone and its derivatives were then tested for cytotoxic activity against the K562 cell line. The imine analogues displayed the most powerful cytotoxic activity with 3cand 3d having IC50 values of 57.55 and 68.02 μM, respectively.

- Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Oxidative Intramolecular 1,1-Oxyamination of Alkenes with Protected Amino Acids to Produce Oxazoloisoindole-2,5-diones
-
It has been established that an electron-deficient bis(ethoxycarbonyl)-substituted cyclopentadienyl (CpE) rhodium(III) complex catalyzes the oxidative intramolecular 1,1-oxyamination of alkenes with N-benzoyl amino acids to produce oxazoloisoindole-2,5-diones. Experimental and theoretical mechanistic studies revealed that this oxidative 1,1-oxyamination proceeds via not the aza-Wacker reaction but the formation of a rhoda(III)oxazolidine initiated by the carboxylic acid-directed N?H bond cleavage.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 5,6,7-trimethoxy flavonoid salicylate derivatives as potential anti-tumor agents
-
5,6,7-Trimethoxy flavonoid salicylate derivatives were designed by the joining of three important pharmacophores (TMP, flavonoid, and SA) according to the combination principle. A series of novel trimethoxy flavonoid salicylate derivatives were synthesized and their in vitro anti-tumor activities were evaluated. Among these derivatives, compound 7f exhibited excellent antiproliferative activity against HGC-27 cells and MGC-803 cells with IC50 values of 10.26 ± 6.94 μM and 17.17 ± 3.03 μM, respectively. Subsequently, the effects on cell colony formation (clonogenic survival assay), cell migration (wound healing assay), cell cycle distribution (PI staining assay), cell apoptosis (Hoechst 33258 staining assay and annexin V-FITC/PI dual staining assay), lactate level (lactate measurement), microtubules disarrangement (immunofluorescence staining analysis) and docking posture (molecular docking simulation) were determined. Further western blot analysis confirmed that compound 7f could effectively down-regulate the expression of glycolysis-related proteins HIF-1α, PFKM and PKM2 and tumor angiogenesis-related proteins VEGF. Overall, these studies suggested that compound 7f, as the representative compound of those, might be a promising candidate for the treatment of gastric cancer and deserved the further studies.

- Synthesis, α-glucosidase inhibition, and molecular docking studies of novel N-substituted hydrazide derivatives of atranorin as antidiabetic agents
-
A series of novel N-substituted hydrazide derivatives were synthesized by reacting atranorin, a compound with a natural depside structure (1), with a range of hydrazines. The natural product and 12 new analogues (2–13) were investigated for inhibition of α-glucosidase. The N-substituted hydrazide derivatives showed more potent inhibition than the original. The experimental results were confirmed by docking analysis. This study suggests that these compounds are promising molecules for diabetes therapy. Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out with compound 2 demonstrating the best docking model using Gromac during simulation up to 20 ns to explore the stability of the complex ligand-protein. Furthermore, the activity of all synthetic compounds 2–13 against a normal cell line HEK293, used for assessing their cytotoxicity, was evaluated.

-
According to the pharmacophore combination principle, a set of new 3′,4′,5′-trimethoxy flavonoid salicylate derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for biological activity. The cytotoxicity evaluation revealed that compound 10v exhibited higher potency than 5-Fu against HCT-116 cells. Preliminary biological activity studies showed that compound 10v could inhibit the colony formation and migration of HCT-116 cells. Besides, the Hoechst 33258 staining assay and flow cytometry revealed that treatment with compound 10v induced the apoptosis of HCT-116 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, while it had no effect on their cell cycle. The WB analysis suggested that HIF-1α, tubulin, HK-2, and PFK might be the potential pharmacophore targets of compound 10v. Tubulin was a potential drug target for compound 10v, which was explained by analyzing the crystal structure of compound 10v complexed with tubulin. These results indicated that compound 10v might be a promising anti-tumor agent candidate, deserving further optimization and evaluation.

- Intramolecular C-H activation through gold(I)-catalyzed reaction of iodoalkynes
-
The cycloisomerization reaction of 1-(iodoethynyl)-2-(1-methoxyalkyl)arenes and related 2-alkyl-substituted derivatives gives the corresponding 3-iodo-1-substituted-1H-indene under the catalytic influence of IPrAuNTf2 [IPr = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropyl)phenylimidazol-2-ylidene; NTf2 = bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imidate]. The reaction takes place in 1,2-dichloroethane at 80°C, and the addition of ttbp (2,4,6-tritert-butylpyrimidine) is beneficial to accomplish this new transformation in high yield. The overall reaction implies initial assembly of an intermediate gold vinylidene upon alkyne activation by gold(I) and a 1,2-iodine-shift. Deuterium labeling and crossover experiments, the magnitude of the recorded kinetic primary isotopic effect, and the results obtained from the reaction of selected stereochemical probes strongly provide support for concerted insertion of the benzylic C-H bond into gold vinylidene as the step responsible for the formation of the new carbon-carbon bond.

- Structure-activity relationship of salicylic acid derivatives on inhibition of TNF-α dependent NFκB activity: Implication on anti-inflammatory effect of N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl)phenethylamine against experimental colitis
-
To develop a more potent NFκB inhibitor from salicylic acid which is known to inhibit activity of NFκB, a transcription factor regulating genes involved in immunity, inflammation and tumorigenesis, derivatives of salicylic acid (SA) where the 5 position, carboxyl or hydroxyl group was modified were treated in HCT116 cells transfected with an NFκB dependent luciferase gene and LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Amidation of the carboxylic group or substitution of chlorine at the 5 position increased the ability of SA to suppress the expression of NFκB dependent luciferase and inducible nitric oxide synthase, a product of an NFκB target gene. Moreover, simultaneous amidation and chlorination of SA (5-chlorosalicylamide; 5-CSAM) conferred an additive NFκB inhibitory activity on SA. To further enhance the inhibitory activity, N-modification was imposed on 5-CSAM. N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl) phenethylamine (5-CSPA), N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl)3-phenylpropylamine (5-CSPPA) and N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl)4-hydroxyphenylethylamine (5-CSHPA) showed greater potencies for inhibiting NFκB activity than other derivatives. Their IC50s' in the luciferase assay measured 15 μM (5-CSPA), 17 μM (5-CSPPA) and 91 μM (5-CSHPA). Rectal administration of 5-CSPA ameliorated TNBS-induced rat colitis, which was more effective than a conventional drug, 5-aminosalicylic acid. These data may provide useful information for development of a therapeutic agent for treatment of diseases where NFκB plays a critical role in the pathogenic progresses.

- Leaving group assistance in the La3+-catalyzed cleavage of dimethyl (o-methoxycarbonyl)aryl phosphate triesters in methanol
-
The catalytic methanolysis of a series of dimethyl aryl phosphate triesters where the aryl groups contain an o-methoxycarbonyl (o-CO2Me) substituent (4a-i) was studied at 25°C in methanol containing La 3+ at various concentrations and sspH. Determination of the second-order rate constant for La3+ 2-catalyzed cleavage of substrate 4a (dimethyl (o-methoxycarbonyl) phenyl phosphate) as a function of sspH was assessed in terms of a speciation diagram that showed that the process was catalyzed by La3+ 2(-OCH3)x dimers, where x = 1-5, that exhibit only a 5-fold difference in activity between all the species. The second-order catalytic rate constants (k2La) for the catalyzed methanolysis of 4a-i at sspH 8.7 fit a Bronsted relationship of log k2La= (-0.82 ± 0.11)sspKalg + (11.61 ± 1.48), where the gradient is shallower than that determined for a series of dimethyl aryl phosphates that do not contain the o-CO2Me substituent, log k2La = (-1.25 ± 0.06)s spKalg + (16.23 ± 0.75). Two main observations are that (1) the o-CO2Me group preferentially accelerates the cleavage of the phosphate triesters with poor leaving groups relative to those with good leaving groups and (2) it provides an increase in cleavage rate relative to those of comparable substrates that do not have that functional group, e.g., k2La(dimethyl o-(methoxycarbonyl) phenyl phosphate)/k2La(dimethyl phenyl phosphate) = 60. Activation parameters for the La3+2-catalyzed methanolysis of 4a and dimethyl 4-nitrophenyl phosphate show respective ΔH? (ΔS?) values of 3.3 kcal/mol (-47 cal/mol·K) and 0.7 kcal/mol (-46.5 cal/mol·K). The data are analyzed in terms of a concerted reaction where the catalytic complex (La3+2( -OCH3)x-1) binds to the three components of a rather loose transition state composed of a nucleophile CH3O -, a nucleofuge -OAr, and a central (RO)2P 2+-O- in a way that provides leaving group assistance to the departing aryloxy group.

- Dissociative solvolytic cleavage of methyl (ortho-Carboxymethyl)Aryl phosphate diesters mediated by Yb3+ in methanol gives a 10 12-fold rate acceleration attributable to leaving group assistance
-
The Yb3+-catalyzed cleavage of a series of eight methyl aryl phosphates (2a-h) where the aryl groups all contain an ortho-methoxycarbonyl group was studied in acidic methanol from 1.34 ≤ spHs ≤ 3.34 at 25 °C. All substrates show saturation binding of the metal ion that is analyzed to provide a conditional binding constant (K)b for a 1:1 substrate/Yb3+ complex and catalytic rate constant (A cat) that varies between about 2 × 10-3 and 50 × 10-3 s-1 overthe range of substrates. Detailed analysis indicates that at very low c oncentration of Yb3+, 3 equiv of substrate are bound, and with increasing [Yb3+], the binding changes to a 1:1 complex which decomposes by a pathway independent of spHs over the range investigated. Control studies show that substrates without the o-methoxycarbonyl group still bind to the Yb 3+ with approximately the same strength as do the o-methoxycarbonyl containing substrates but have no observable reaction when bound. A Jaffe plot of the kcat vs substituent ?-values indicates that, during the catalyzed reactions of 2a-h, the phenoxy-O and C(O)OCH3 groups accommodate negative and positive charge respectively, the p phosphate and p c(o)OMe values being (1.84 ±0.11) and ( 0.85 ±0.14). For all these substrates, the final reaction products are dimethyl phosphate and the Yb3+ complex of the phenoxide. A study of the binding of the parent phenols to Yb3+ indicates that log(Kbind) = (0.84 ± 0.06)sspKa+ (3.4 ± 0.9), r2 = 0.9664 for phenols containing the o-methoxycarbonyl group; for those lacking that substituent log(Kb ind) = (0.96 ± 0.04)s spKa- (1.73 ± 0.4), (r2 = 0.99). For the catalyzed reacti on the βlg = -0.48, while the βeq = -0.95, leading to a Leffler parameter of α = 0.51. A mechanism is presented for the catalyzed reaction which is highly dissociative, having a transition state where the Yb3+ translocates during the cleavage reaction to assist the leaving group's departure with weak nucleophilic assistance by the solvent methanol. A comparison of the catalyzed rate of reaction with a computed rate of reaction attributable to solvent alone indicates that Yb3+ provides leaving group assistance on the order of 1012-fold, stabilizing the transition state for cleavage by some 16 kcal/mol.

- Enzyme-catalysed synthesis and reactions of benzene oxide/oxepine derivatives of methyl benzoates
-
A series of twelve benzoate esters was metabolised, by species of the Phellinus genus of wood-rotting fungi, to yield the corresponding benzyl alcohol derivatives and eight salicylates. The isolation of a stable oxepine metabolite, from methyl benzoate, allied to evidence of the migration and retention of a carbomethoxy group (the NIH Shift), during enzyme-catalysed ortho-hydroxylation of alkyl benzoates to form salicylates, is consistent with a mechanism involving an initial arene epoxidation step. This mechanism was confirmed by the isolation of a remarkably stable, optically active, substituted benzene oxide metabolite of methyl 2-(trifluoromethyl)benzoate, which slowly converted into the racemic form. The arene oxide was found to undergo a cycloaddition reaction with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione to yield a crystalline cycloadduct whose structure and racemic nature was established by X-ray crystallography. The metabolite was also found to undergo some novel benzene oxide reactions, including epoxidation to give an anti-diepoxide, base-catalysed hydrolysis to form a trans-dihydrodiol and acid-catalysed aromatisation to yield a salicylate derivative via the NIH Shift of a carbomethoxy group.

- Labeling of (S)-des-4-amino-3-[125I]iodozacopride (DAIZAC), a high-affinity radioligand for the 5-HT-3 receptor
-
We have prepared (S)-5-chloro-3-[125I]iodo-2-methoxy-N-(1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-3-yl) -benzamide ([125I]DAIZAC, [125I]-3) as a radioligand for characterization of the 5-HT-3 receptor. Preparation of the 3-tri-n-butylstannyl precursor was accomplished from the corresponding unlabeled DAIZAC by reaction with bis(tributyltin). Treatment of the precursor with 5 mCi of Na125I and chloramine-T in dilute HCl gave 2.58 ± 0.22 mCi (52%) of [125I]DAIZAC with >98% radiochemical purity and 1500 Ci/mmol specific activity. Saturation analysis of the binding of [125I]DAIZAC to rat brain homogenates showed a single binding site with a receptor density B(max) of 0.66 ± 0.03 pmol/g and a receptor affinity K(D) of 0.15 ± 0.01 nM. Compared to [125I]iodozacopride, we find the 20-fold higher affinity and easy preparation of [125I]DAIZAC to be advantageous for in vitro identification of brain 5-HT-3 receptors.

- Zatosetron, a Potent, Selective, and Long-Acting 5HT3 Receptor Antagonist: Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationships
-
Antagonists of 5HT3 receptors are clinically effective in treating nausea and emesis associated with certain oncolytic drugs, including cisplatin.Moreover, these agents may be useful in pharmacological management of several central nervous system disorders, including anxiety, schizophrenia, dementia, and substance abuse.Our studies on aroyltropanamides led to the discovery that dihydrobenzofuranyl esters and amides are potent 5HT3 receptor antagonists.Simple benzoyl derivatives of tropine and 3α-aminotropane possessed weak 5HT3 receptor antagonist activity, as judged by blockade of bradycardia produced by iv injection of serotonin (5HT) to anesthetized rats.Within this series, use of benzofuran-7-carboxamide as the aroyl moiety led to a substantial increase of 5HT3 receptor affinity.The optimal 5HT3 receptor antagonist identified via extensive SAR studies was endo-5-chloro-2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-N-(8-methyl-8-azabicyclooct-3-yl)-7-benzofurancarboxamide (Z)-2-butenedioate (zatosetron maleate).The 7-carbamyl regiochemistry, dimethyl substitution, chloro substituent, and endo stereochemistry were all crucial elements of the SAR.Zatosetron maleate was a potent antagonist of 5HT-induced bradycardia in rats (ED50=0.86 μg/kg iv).Low oral doses of zatosetron (30 μg/kg) produced long-lasting antagonism of 5HT3 receptors, as evidenced by blockade of 5HT-induced bradycardia for longer than 6 h in rats.Moreover, this compound did not produce hemodynamic effects after iv administration to rats, nor did it block carbamylcholine-induced bradycardia in doses that markedly blocked 5HT3 receptors.Thus, zatosetron is a potent, selective, orally effective 5HT3 receptor antagonist with a long duration of action in rats.

- Development of high-affinity 5-HT3 receptor antagonists. 1. Initial structure-activity relationship of novel benzamides
-
This report describes the development of novel benzamides which are orally active, highly potent, specific antagonists of 5-HT3 receptors. Described in this first report are the structure-activity relationships that led to novel structures with improved potency and selectivity. From this series of compounds, (S)-28 was identified and selected for further evaluation as a 5- HT3 receptor antagonist. Compared with 5-HT3 antagonists such as GR 38032F, BRL 43694, and metoclopramide, (S)-28 was most active in (a) inhibiting binding to 5-HT3 receptor binding sites in rat entorhinal cortex with an K(i) value of 0.19 nM and (b) blocking cisplatin-induced emesis in the ferret with an ED50 value determined to be 9 μg/kg po.
