- Identification of triazolopyridine derivatives as a new class of AhR agonists and evaluation of anti-psoriasis effect in a mouse model
-
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-dependent transcription factor, can regulate the immune balance of Th17/22 and Treg cells, which plays an important role in the development and maintenance of the skin barrier. We herein report the discovery of triazolopyridine derivatives as a new class of AhR agonists. Structure-activity relationship analyses led to the identification of the most active compound, 6-bromo-2-(4-bromophenyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine (12a), with an EC50 (50% effective concentration) value of 0.03 nM. Compound 12a could induce rapid nuclear enrichment of AhR, trigger the transcription of downstream genes and promote skin barrier repair. Topical or oral administration of 12a could significantly alleviate imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like skin lesion. Considering the excellent in vivo anti-psoriasis activity as well as good pharmacokinetic properties, 12a could be a promising lead compound for drug discovery against psoriasis, and deserving further investigation.

- Design and synthesis of sinomenine isoxazole derivatives via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction
-
A novel structure of sinomenine isoxazole derivatives is synthesised from sinomenine hydrochloride and aromatic aldehydes and requires six steps. 19 target compounds have been obtained in good yields. The sinomenine hydrochloride transforms to 4-alkynyl sinomenine, which is a key intermediate product to synthesise the target sinomenine isoxazole compounds, after a neutralisation reaction with ammonia and substitution reaction with 3-chloropropyne. Another key intermediate product is 1,3-dipole, which can be obtained from aromatic aldehyde. After treatment with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and then sodium carbonate solution, aromatic aldehyde is converted to aldehyde oxime, which reacts with N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) to afford aryl hydroximino chloride. 1,3-Dipole is eventually formed in situ while triethylamine (TEA) in DMF is added dropwise. Then 4-alkynyl sinomenine is added to provide the sinomenine isoxazole derivative via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction as the key step. All the target compounds are characterised by melting point, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS and FT-IR spectroscopy.

- Chlorotropylium Promoted Conversions of Oximes to Amides and Nitriles
-
Chlorotropylium chloride as a catalyst for the transformations of oximes, ketones, and aldehydes to their corresponding amides and nitriles in excellent yields (up to 99 %) and in short reaction times (mostly 10–15 min). Oximes were electrophilically attacked on the hydroxyl oxygen by chlorotropylium. The produced tropylium oxime ethers were the key intermediates, of which the ketoxime ether led to amide through Beckmann rearrangement, and the aldoxime ether led to nitrile by nitrogen base DBU assisted formal dehydration. This chlorotropylium activation protocol offered general, mild, and efficient avenues bifurcately from oximes to both amides and nitriles by one organocatalyst.

- Diversity Oriented Clicking (DOC): Divergent Synthesis of SuFExable Pharmacophores from 2-Substituted-Alkynyl-1-Sulfonyl Fluoride (SASF) Hubs
-
Diversity Oriented Clicking (DOC) is a unified click-approach for the modular synthesis of lead-like structures through application of the wide family of click transformations. DOC evolved from the concept of achieving “diversity with ease”, by combining classic C?C π-bond click chemistry with recent developments in connective SuFEx-technologies. We showcase 2-Substituted-Alkynyl-1-Sulfonyl Fluorides (SASFs) as a new class of connective hub in concert with a diverse selection of click-cycloaddition processes. Through the selective DOC of SASFs with a range of dipoles and cyclic dienes, we report a diverse click-library of 173 unique functional molecules in minimal synthetic steps. The SuFExable library comprises 10 discrete heterocyclic core structures derived from 1,3- and 1,5-dipoles; while reaction with cyclic dienes yields several three-dimensional bicyclic Diels–Alder adducts. Growing the library to 278 discrete compounds through late-stage modification was made possible through SuFEx click derivatization of the pendant sulfonyl fluoride group in 96 well-plates—demonstrating the versatility of the DOC approach for the rapid synthesis of diverse functional structures. Screening for function against MRSA (USA300) revealed several lead hits with improved activity over methicillin.

- Leaving Group Assisted Strategy for Photoinduced Fluoroalkylations Using N-Hydroxybenzimidoyl Chloride Esters

Redox-active esters (RAEs) as alkyl radical precursors have been extensively developed for C?C bond formations. However, the analogous transformations of fluoroalkyl radicals from the corresponding acid or ester precursors remain challenging because of the high oxidation potential of the fluoroalkyl carboxylate anions. The newly developed N-hydroxybenzimidoylchloride (NHBC) ester provides a general leaving group assisted strategy to generate a portfolio of fluoroalkyl radicals, and can be successfully applied in photoinduced decarboxylative hydrofluoroalkylation and heteroarylation of unactivated olefins. In addition, DFT calculations revealed that the NHBC ester proceeds by the fluorocarbon radical pathway, whereas other well-known RAEs proceed by the nitrogen radical pathway.

Reported herein is a stereospecific 1,4-metallate rearrangement for single-geometry ketoxime synthesis from oxime chlorides and arylboronic acids. This strategy exhibits broad substrate scope with excellent stereoselectivity under mild reaction conditions. In comparison with the conventional approaches, each configuration of unsymmetric diaryl oximes, as well as the thermodynamically less stable Z isomer of aryl alkyl ketoximes can be selectively and exclusively obtained. The reactivities of unsymmetric diaryl oximes and the Z isomer of aryl alkyl oximes, a class of underexplored molecules, enables efficient access to the corresponding isoquinolines, isoquinoline N-oxides, and amides having a single configuration.

- Synthesis of new coumarin tethered isoxazolines as potential anticancer agents

A series of new coumarin tethered isoxazolines (7a-l) were synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic potency against human melanoma cancer cell line (UACC 903) as well as fibroblast normal cell line (FF2441). Preliminary results revealed that some of these coumarin tethered isoxazolines 7b, 7c, 7f and 7j exhibited significant antiproliferative effect against human melanoma cancer (UACC 903) with IC50 values of 8.8, 10.5, 9.2 and 4.5 μM respectively. However, compound 7c was non-toxic to normal human cells at the tested concentration. Further, we have chosen compound 7c to check its efficacy in Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma animal model in-vivo for its antitumor and antiangiogenic properties. Our lead compound significantly reduced the cell viability, body weight, ascites volume and downregulated the formation of neovasculature such as regression of tumor volume. The present study indicates the scope of developing into potent anticancer drug in near future.

-
As a part of our endeavour toward the synthesis of new heterocyclic bioactive agents, three series of Δ2-isoxazoline fused cyclopentane derivatives (27 compounds) were synthesized and characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS analysis. The newly synthesized target compounds were evaluated for their preliminary in vitro antimicrobial and anticancer activities. The results indicated that compounds 4b, 4h, 4i, 5d and 5g displayed remarkable anti-microbial activity with respect to their standard drugs Ampicillin, Gentamycin and Amphotericin B. In preliminary MTT cytotoxicity studies, compound 4i was found to be equipotent to the standard drug Etoposide against MCF-7. The influence of the most active cytotoxic compound 4i on the cell cycle distribution was evaluated in the MCF-7 cell line, which displayed a cell cycle arrest at the S phase. Moreover, acridine orange/ethidium bromide staining, annexin V binding assay and mitochondrial membrane potential revealed that compound 4i can induce cell apoptosis in MCF-7 cells. Compounds 4b and 4h are potential leads as antimicrobials owing to no significant cell toxicity observed in the present study. Docking studies revealed that compound 4i binds to Phe1145, Glh698, Met696, Cys1191, Met1169 and Ile1167 on DNA methyltransferase (DNMT1) protein and inhibition of DNMT1 could be the possible mechanism of action for these compounds.

Interestingly, among the tested molecules, some of the analogs displayed better cytotoxic activity than the parent 6-hydroxycoumarin (1). Of the synthesized isoxazoles, compounds 10 and 13 showed the best activity with IC50 of 8.2 and 13.6 μM against PC-3 cancer cell line, while as, among the triazoles, compounds 23 and 25 were the most active with the IC50 of 10.2 and 12.6 μM against A-549 cancer cell line. The other derivatives showed almost comparable activity with that of the parent molecule. The present study resulted in identification of ortho substituted isoxazole and triazole derivatives of 6-hydroxycoumarin as effective cytotoxic agents against prostate (PC-3) and lung (A-549) cancer cell lines, respectively.

- Ruthenium-catalyzed rearrangement of aldoximes to primary amides in water
-
The rearrangement of aldoximes to primary amides has been studied using the readily available arene-ruthenium(II) complex [RuCl2(η 6-C6Me6){P(NMe2)3}] (5 mol %) as catalyst. Reactions proceeded cleanly in pure water at 100 °C without the assistance of any cocatalyst, affording the desired amides in high yields (70-90%) after short reaction times (1-7 h). The process was operative with both aromatic, heteroaromatic, α,β-unsaturated, and aliphatic aldoximes and tolerated several functional groups. Reaction profiles and experiments using 18O-labeled water indicate that two different mechanisms are implicated in these transformations. In both of them, nitrile intermediates are initially formed by dehydration of the aldoximes. These intermediates are then hydrated to the corresponding amides by the action of a second molecule of aldoxime or water. A kinetic analysis of the rearrangement of benzaldoxime to benzamide is also discussed.

An efficient 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition method was performed for the synthesis of a series of monofluoro- and trifluoromethane-3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazoles. This efficient cycloaddition method was to react hydrazonoyl hydrochlorides with a series of aldehydes in the presence of NEt3 as catalytic basic agent to provide the corresponding product in 28-94%. Their growth inhibitory results against cancer cells indicated that some of the fluorine- and trifluoromethane-containing compounds could effectively inhibit the growth of NCI-H226 and T-cell leukemia (Jurkat) cells. Among the compounds, trifluoromethane-containing 1,2,4-triazoles possessed the five-membered ring groups on the C-5 position of the triazolic ring, including cyclopentyl, 3-furyl, 3-thienyl, and 2-pyrrolyl, possessed the significant inhibitory activity for NCI-H226 cancer cells.

- Catalytic acylation of amines with aldehydes or aldoximes
-
The simple nickel salt NiCl2?6H2O catalyzes the coupling of aldoximes with amines to give secondary or tertiary amide products. The aldoxime can be prepared in situ from the corresponding aldehyde. The use of 18O-labeled oximes has allowed insight into the mechanism of this reaction.

- Synthesis of novel [1-aziridinyl-(hydroxyimino)methyl]arenes and their cytotoxic activity
-
The synthesis has been developed for novel potential anticancer agents whose structures contain an aziridine amidoxime group. The cytotoxic activity of all of the target compounds on different cell lines are given together with the in vitro IC50 and LD50 values found. The most promising anticancer agents were found to be the methyl 4-[1-aziridinyl(hydroxyimino) methyl]benzoate, 1-aziridinyl(2-naphthyl)-methanone oxime, and 1-aziridinyl(2-quinolyl)methanone oxime.

- Biologically active hydroxymoyl chlorides as antifungal agents
-
Several oximes and oxime ethers have been developed as antimicrobial agents. A series of chlorooximes (hydroximoyl chlorides) have been synthesized and tested for antifungal activity under in-vitro conditions against Candida albicans, Candida parapsilosis, Candida glabrata, Candida krusei, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergilhis flaviis and Aspergillus niger. The derived antifungal activity has been compared with the corresponding oximes. The results show that most of the chlorooximes exhibit potent antifungal activity with anti-isomers showing better activity. It is observed that most of the chlorooximes show interesting antifungal activity (MICs ≤ 32 μg/mL) compared to oximes. Compound 3q (2,3-dimethoxy phenyl hydroxymoyl chloride) is the most active compound. This compound is active against all the Candida species (MIC 0.5 μg/mL) as well as filamentous fungi with MIC range of 2-4 μg/mL. This series of compounds are fungicidal in nature as evident from the MFC results.

- Detoxification of the cruciferous phytoalexin brassinin in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum requires an inducible glucosyltransferase
-
The phytoalexins, brassinin, 1-methoxybrassinin and cyclobrassinin, were metabolized by the stem rot fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum into their corresponding glucosyl derivatives displaying no detectable antifungal activity. Importantly, co-incubation of S. sclerotiorum with camalexins, various phytoalexin analogs, and brassinin indicated that a synthetic camalexin derivative could slow down substantially the rate of brassinin detoxification. Furthermore, inducible brassinin glucosyltransferase (BGT) activity was detected in crude cell-free extracts of S. sclerotiorum. BGT activity was induced by the phytoalexin camalexin, and the brassinin analogs methyl tryptamine dithiocarbamate and methyl 1-methyltryptamine dithiocarbamate. The overall results suggest that the fungus S. sclerotiorum in its continuous adaptation and co-evolution with brassinin producing plants, has acquired efficient glucosyltransferase(s) that can disarm some of the most active plant chemical defenses.
