- Methylsulfanylpyridine based diheteroaryl isocombretastatin analogs as potent anti-proliferative agents
-
Isocombretastatins are the not isomerizable 1,1-diarylethene isomers of combretastatins. Both families of antimitotics are poorly soluble and new analogs with improved water solubility are needed. The ubiquitous 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl ring and most of its replacements contribute to the solubility problem. 39 new compounds belonging to two series of isocombretastatin analogs with 2-chloro-6-methylsulfanyl-4-pyridinyl or 2,6-bis(methylsulfanyl)-4-pyridinyl moieties replacing the 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl have been synthesized and their antimitotic activity and aqueous solubility have been studied. We show here that 2-chloro-6-methylsulfanylpyridines are more successful replacements than 2,6-bis(methylsulfanyl)pyridines, giving highly potent tubulin inhibitors and cytotoxic compounds with improved water solubilities. The optimal combination is with indole rings carrying polar substitutions at the three position. The resulting diheteroaryl isocombretastatin analogs showed potent cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines caused by tubulin inhibition, as shown by in vitro tubulin polymerization inhibitory assays, cell cycle analysis, and confocal microscopy studies. Cell cycle analysis also showed apoptotic responses following G2/M arrest after treatment. Conformational analysis and docking studies were applied to propose binding modes of the compounds at the colchicine site of tubulin and were in good agreement with the observed SAR. 2-Chloro-6-methylsulfanylpyridines represent a new and successful trimethoxyphenyl ring substitution for the development of improved colchicine site ligands.

- Exceptionally high temperature spin crossover in amide-functionalised 2,6-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine iron(ii) complex revealed by variable temperature Raman spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction
-
The synthesis of a novel amide-functionalised 2,6-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine-4-carboxamide ligand (bppCONH2) is described. The complex salts [Fe(bppCONH2)2](BF4)2and [Fe(bppCONH2)2](ClO4)2were synthesised and characterised by SQUID magnetometry, differential scanning calorimetry, variable temperature Raman spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. DSC measurements of [Fe(bppCONH2)2](BF4)2indicate a spin-crossover (SCO) transition withT↑ at 481 K andT↓ at 461 K, showing a 20 K hysteresis. DSC for the perchlorate salt shows an SCO transition withT↑ at 459 K andT↓ at 445 K with a 14 K hysteresis. For the BF4?salt analysis of low and high-spin state crystal structures at 101, 290 and 500 K, suggest stabilisation of the low spin state due to the formation of 1D hydrogen-bonded cationic chains. Variable temperature Raman studies of the BF4salt support the presence of a high temperature SCO. It is speculated that the presence of hysteresis may be attributed to differences in the inter-molecular hydrogen bonding in the low spin and high spin states.

-
We report here an alternate redesigned five-step synthesis of 2,6-diacetamido-4-formylpyridine. The method described here is more convenient where this aldehyde is prepared in commercially viable quantities from simple and easy-to-use reagents and is a key compound required to prepare 5,10,15,20-Tetrakis(3,5-diacetamido-4-pyridyl)porphyrin (I). This porphyrin can be used as an excellent building block for the construction of supramolecular assemblies and is an interesting compound to study the design, principles, and photonic properties such as the extent of electron and energy transfer.

- Potent colchicine-site ligands with improved intrinsic solubility by replacement of the 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl ring with a 2-methylsulfanyl-6-methoxypyridine ring
-
Colchicine site antimitotic agents typically suffer from low aqueous solubilities and are formulated as phosphate prodrugs of phenolic groups. These hydroxyl groups are the aim of metabolic transformations leading to resistance. There is an urgent need for more intrinsically soluble analogues lacking these hydroxyl groups. The 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl ring of combretastatin A-4 is a liability in terms of solubility but it is considered essential for high cytotoxic and tubulin polymerization inhibitory (TPI) activity. We have synthesized 36 new analogues of combretastatin A-4 replacing the trimethoxyphenyl moiety with more polar pyridine based moieties, measured their aqueous solubility, and studied their anti-proliferative effects against 3 human cancer cell lines. We show here that pyridine rings can be successful replacements for the trimethoxyphenyl ring, resulting in potent and more soluble analogues. The more straightforward replacement, a 2,6-dimethoxypyridine ring led to inactive analogues, but a 2-methoxy-6-methylsulfanylpyridine moiety led to active analogues when combined with different B rings. This replacement led to potent cytotoxic activity against sensitive human cancer cell lines due to tubulin inhibition, as shown by cell cycle analysis, confocal microscopy, and tubulin polymerization inhibitory activity studies. Cell cycle analysis also showed apoptotic responses following treatment. Docking studies suggested binding at the colchicine site of tubulin and provided a good agreement with the observed SAR. A 2-methoxy-6-methylsulfanylpyridine moiety is a good trimethoxyphenyl ring replacement for the development of new colchicine site ligands.

- Design and structural analysis of aromatic inhibitors of type II dehydroquinase from mycobacterium tuberculosis
-
3-Dehydroquinase, the third enzyme in the shikimate pathway, is a potential target for drugs against tuberculosis. Whilst a number of potent inhibitors of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis enzyme based on a 3-dehydroquinate core have been identified, they generally show little or no in vivo activity, and were synthetically complex to prepare. This report describes studies to develop tractable and drug-like aromatic analogues of the most potent inhibitors. A range of carbon-carbon linked biaryl analogues were prepared to investigate the effect of hydrogen bond acceptor and donor patterns on inhibition. These exhibited inhibitory activity in the high-micromolar range. The addition of flexible linkers in the compounds led to the identification of more potent 3-nitrobenzylgallate- and 5-aminoiso-phthalate-based analogues.

- Optimization of Triazine Nitriles as Rhodesain Inhibitors: Structure-Activity Relationships, Bioisosteric Imidazopyridine Nitriles, and X-ray Crystal Structure Analysis with Human CathepsinL
-
The cysteine protease rhodesain of Trypanosoma brucei parasites causing African sleeping sickness has emerged as a target for the development of new drug candidates. Based on a triazine nitrile moiety as electrophilic headgroup, optimization studies on the substituents for the S1, S2, and S3 pockets of the enzyme were performed using structure-based design and resulted in inhibitors with inhibition constants in the single-digit nanomolar range. Comprehensive structure-activity relationships clarified the binding preferences of the individual pockets of the active site. The S1 pocket tolerates various substituents with a preference for flexible and basic side chains. Variation of the S2 substituent led to high-affinity ligands with inhibition constants down to 2nM for compounds bearing cyclohexyl substituents. Systematic investigations on the S3 pocket revealed its potential to achieve high activities with aromatic vectors that undergo stacking interactions with the planar peptide backbone forming part of the pocket. X-ray crystal structure analysis with the structurally related enzyme human cathepsinL confirmed the binding mode of the triazine ligand series as proposed by molecular modeling. Sub-micromolar inhibition of the proliferation of cultured parasites was achieved for ligands decorated with the best substituents identified through the optimization cycles. In cell-based assays, the introduction of a basic side chain on the inhibitors resulted in a 35-fold increase in antitrypanosomal activity. Finally, bioisosteric imidazopyridine nitriles were studied in order to prevent off-target effects with unselective nucleophiles by decreasing the inherent electrophilicity of the triazine nitrile headgroup. Using this ligand, the stabilization by intramolecular hydrogen bonding of the thioimidate intermediate, formed upon attack of the catalytic cysteine residue, compensates for the lower reactivity of the headgroup. The imidazopyridine nitrile ligand showed excellent stability toward the thiol nucleophile glutathione in a quantitative invitro assay and fourfold lower cytotoxicity than the parent triazine nitrile.

-
Citrazinic acid is used as a convenient starting material for both tridentate 2,6-di(pyrazol-1-yl)-pyridine and tetradentate 6,6′-di(pyrazol- 1-yl)-2,2′-bipyridine ligands containing carboxylic groups useful for further anchoring of sensitizer on TiO2 for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). Using 2,6-dichloro-4-carboxypyridine, the synthesis of the terdentate ligands was improved compared to previously used 2,6-dibromo-4- carboxypyridine or 2,6-dichloro-4-ethylcarboxylate pyridine. Controlling the reaction conditions, it is possible to efficiently obtain the monosubstituted 2-chloro-6-pyrazol-1-yl-4-carboxypyridine, a key intermediate for the preparation of tetradentate 6,6′-di(pyrazol-1-yl)-4,4′-dicarboxy-2, 2′-bipyridine ligand.

A series of oxadiazole pyridine derivatives were synthesized by using 2-chloro-6-hydrazinoisonicotinic acid hydrazide as starting material. Treatment of the hydrazide with carbon disulfide to afford the oxadiazole derivative, which was treated with 5-methyl-2-furancarbaldehyde, formic acid, acetic acid/acetic anhydride, or phthalic anhydride to yield the corresponding pyridinodiazoles and on imide. Condensation of the hydrazide with p-fluorobenzaldehyde in ethanol or acetic acid in the presence of sodium acetate afforded hydrazone and oxadiazole derivatives, which were acetylated and cyclized with acetic anhydride to N-acetyloxadiazole derivatives. The hydrazone was treated with acetic acid in the presence of sodium acetate, or bromine water/sodium acetate to give on oxadiazole, while it was cyclized with chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of TEA to oxoazetidinaminoisonicotinamide. Finally, condensation of the hydrazide with acid anhydrides in refluxing glacial acetic acid afforded the corresponding bisimide derivatives. The pharmacological screening showed that many of these obtained compounds have good antianexiety activity comparable to diazepam as positive control.

-
A series of substituted pyridine derivatives were prepared from 2-chloro-6-ethoxy-4-acetylpyridine, which was prepared from the corresponding citrazinic acid as starting material. Reaction of acetylpyridine with thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde afforded the 2-chloro-6-ethoxy-4-β-(2-thienyl) acryloylpyridine, which was reacted with malononitrile in refluxing ethanol in the presence of piperidine as a catalyst to afford the cyanoaminopyrane derivative. Acryloylpyridine was treated with urea or guanidine hydrochloride in refluxing ethanolic potassium hydroxide to give the corresponding pyrimidinone and aminopyrimidine derivatives. The latter was condensed with hydrazine hydrate or phenyl hydrazine to give pyrazoline and N-phenylpyrazoline derivatives. Finally, cycloaddition reaction of acryloylpyridine with thiourea yielded thioxopyrimidine, which was treated with 2-bromopropionic acid, 3-bromopropionic acid, or bromoacetic acid to yield methylthiazolo-, thiazino-, and thiazolopyrimidine derivatives. The arylmethylene derivative was prepared by reacting thiazolopyrimidine with benzaldehyde or by reacting thioxopyrimidine with benzaldehyde and bromoacetic acid in one step. The pharmacological screening showed that many of these compounds have good analgesic and antiparkinsonian activities comparable to Valdecoxib and Benzatropine as reference drugs.

- Salicylate activity. 3. Structure relationship to systemic acquired resistance
-
Salicylic acid (2-hydroxybenzoic acid; SA) is a primary signal inducing plant defenses against pathogens. This plant disease resistance, known as systemic acquired resistance (SAR), is an attractive target for the development of new plant protection agents. SAR induction is a multistep process that includes accumulation of pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins. The structure-activity profile of salicylates and related compounds has been evaluated using an inducible PR protein (PR-1a) and plant resistance to tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) as markers. Among the 47 selected monosubstituted and multiple-substituted salicylate derivatives tested, all 8 derivatives that induced more PR-1a protein than SA were fluorinated or chlorinated in the 3- and/or 5-position (3,5-difluorosalicylate > 3-chlorosalicylate > 5-chlorosalicylate > 3,5-dichlorosalicylate > 3-chloro-5-fluorosalicylate > 3-fluorosalicylate > 3-fluoro-5-chlorosalicylate > 3,5-dichloro-6-hydroxysalicylate > SA). In general, substitutions for or on the 2-hydroxyl group or at the 4-position of the ring reduced or eliminated PR-1a protein induction. In contrast, substitutions in positions ortho (3-position) or para (5-position) to the hydroxyl group with electron-withdrawing groups other than chlorine or fluorine decreased induction, and electron-donating groups in these positions also had a deleterious effect on PR-1a induction. PR-1a protein accumulation and reduction in TMV lesion diameter exhibited a log-linear relationship. The seven salicylate derivatives that were the most active TMV resistance inducers were all halogenated in the 3- and/or 5-position (3-chlorosalicylate > 3,5-difluorosalicylate > 3,5-dichloro-6-hydroxysalicylate > 3,5,6-trichlorosalicylate > 5-chlorosalicylate > 5-fluorosalicylate > 3,5-dichlorosalicylate > 4-fluorosalicylate > 3-fluorosalicylate > 3-chloro-5-fluorosalicylate > 4-chlorosalicylate > SA). The correlation between PR-1a protein induction and resistance to TMV confirms the value of using PR-1a induction as a screening tool for developing new plant disease control agents.

Whereas 2,3-dichloropyridine and 2,5-dichloro-4-(lithiooxy)-pyridine undergo deprotonation exclusively at the 4- and 2-positions, respectively, optional site selectivity can be implemented with 2,5- and 3,4-dichloropyridine (which are attacked, depending on the choice of the reagents, at either the 4- or 6- and either the 2- and 5-positions, respectively). Upon treatment with lithium diisopropylamide, 2,4-dichloro-3-iodopyridine, 3,5-dichloro-4-bromopyridine and 2,6-dichloro-3-iodopyridine afford 5-, 2- and 4-lithiated intermediates, but the latter isomerize instantaneously to species in which lithium and iodine have swapped places, the driving force being the low basicity of C-Li bonds when flanked by two neighboring halogens.

(Equation Presented) A highly efficient enantioselective synthesis of (S)-(-)-acromelobic acid (1) was achieved via asymmetric hydrogenation of dehydroamino acid derivative (3) using (R,R)-[Rh(DIPAMP)(COD)]BF4 catalyst followed by removal of protective groups in >98% ee and good over all yield. The key intermediate (3) was prepared from the commercially available citrazinic acid (4) in six steps.

- Electron transfer in a hydrogen-bonded assembly consisting of porphyrin-diimide
-
Electron-transfer reactions in an H-bonded assembly composed of a diacylaminopyridine bearing zinc porphyrin and 1,8:4,5-naphthalenetetracarboxylic diimide(Ka = 2.8 × 102 dm3 mol-1) in benzene occur with kCS = 4.1 × 1010 s-1 and kCR = 3.7 × 109 s-1, while the corresponding covalently linked model with a comparable distance and energy gap undergoes electron transfer with kCS = 9.9 × 1010 s-1 and kCR = 6.7 × 108 s-1.

- Practical asymmetric synthesis of (S)-4,ethyl-7,8-dihydro-4-hydroxy-1H- pyrano[3,4-f]indolizine-3,6,10(4H)-trione, a key intermediate for the synthesis of Irinotecan and other camptothecin analogs
-
A practical asymmetric synthesis of (S) 4-ethyl-7,8-dihydro-4-hydroxy- 1H-pyrano[3,4-f]indolizine-3,6,10(4H)-trione (1), a versatile intermediate for the synthesis of camptothecin analogs, was developed. Commercially available citrazinic acid is converted in four steps into the 2-chloro-6- methoxypyridine 5. An ortho-directed metalation followed by reaction with a formamide produces an aldehyde with the required 2,3,4,6-substituted pyridine (6) with high regioselectivity. After refunctionalization of the aldehyde, the chloropyridine is converted into an ester by a facile palladium-mediated carbonylation reaction. Wittig reaction and racemic osmylation produce the diol 16 which is resolved by an efficient lipase resolution to an ee > 99%, and a one-pot recycle of the unwanted diol enantiomer was developed. A series of high-yielding oxidation and deprotection steps convert (S)-16 into the pyridone 25, which is then converted into 1 with an ee > 99.6%.
