- SnCl2 catalyzed direct synthesis of pyrroles under aqueous conditions
-
Synthetic substituted pyrroles are related with interesting biological activities, yet they remain inadequately explored within drug discovery. Late years have seen a growing interest in synthetic approaches that can provide access to structurally novel pyrroles so that the biological usefulness of this compound class can be more fully investigated. Herein, an efficient and versatile practical protocol for the pyrroles using stannous(II) chloride dihydrate as catalyst is described under aqueous conditions at 55 oC in high yields. Also, this method is applicable for the preparation of diversity and oriented pyrrole derivatives.

- A convenient one-pot access to N-substituted pyrroles from nitro benzenes under neat aqueous conditions
-
A practical and straightforward one-step procedure for the synthesis of N-functionalized pyrroles via reductive cyclization is described. The simple one-pot reaction is carried out by treating various substituted nitro benzenes with readily available building blocks 2,5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran or γ-diketone in the presence of SnCl2 under aqueous conditions at 55°C.

- Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of N-carboxyphenylpyrrole derivatives as potent HIV fusion inhibitors targeting gp41
-
On the basis of the structures of small-molecule hits targeting the HIV-1 gp41, N-(4-carboxy-3-hydroxy)phenyl-2,5-dimethylpyrrole (2, NB-2), and N-(3-carboxy-4-chloro)phenylpyrrole (A1, NB-64), 42 N-carboxyphenylpyrrole derivatives in two categories (A and B series) were designed and synthesized. We found that 11 compounds exhibited promising anti-HIV-1 activity at micromolar level and their antiviral activity was correlated with their inhibitory activity on gp41 six-helix bundle formation, suggesting that these compounds block HIV fusion and entry by disrupting gp41 core formation. The structure-activity relationship and molecular docking analysis revealed that the carboxyl group could interact with either Arg579 or Lys574 to form salt bridges and two methyl groups on the pyrrole ring were favorable for interaction with the residues in gp41 pocket. The most active compound, N-(3-carboxy-4-hydroxy)phenyl-2,5-dimethylpyrrole (A12), partially occupied the deep hydrophobic pocket, suggesting that enlarging the molecular size of A12 could improve its binding affinity and anti-HIV-1 activity for further development as a small-molecule HIV fusion and entry inhibitor.

- Solvent and ligand effects on selective mono- and dilithiation of 1-(chlorophenyl)pyrroles and 1-(methoxyphenyl)pyrroles
-
Novel methods for site-selective lithiation of 1-(chlorophenyl)pyrroles and 1-(methoxyphenyl)pyrroles are described. Mono- or dilithiations are governed by change of both the temperature and the solvent from tetrahydrofuran to diethyl ether. Regioselectiv
