- 3-substituted-N-(4-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)arylsulfonamides as a novel class of selective Mcl-1 inhibitors: Structure-based design, synthesis, SAR, and biological evaluation
-
Mcl-1, an antiapoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins, is a validated and attractive target for cancer therapy. Overexpression of Mcl-1 in many cancers results in disease progression and resistance to current chemotherapeutics. Utilizing high-throughput screening, compound 1 was identified as a selective Mcl-1 inhibitor and its binding to the BH3 binding groove of Mcl-1 was confirmed by several different, but complementary, biochemical and biophysical assays. Guided by structure-based drug design and supported by NMR experiments, comprehensive SAR studies were undertaken and a potent and selective inhibitor, compound 21, was designed which binds to Mcl-1 with a Ki of 180 nM. Biological characterization of 21 showed that it disrupts the interaction of endogenous Mcl-1 and biotinylated Noxa-BH3 peptide, causes cell death through a Bak/Bax-dependent mechanism, and selectively sensitizes Eμ-myc lymphomas overexpressing Mcl-1, but not Eμ-myc lymphoma cells overexpressing Bcl-2. Treatment of human leukemic cell lines with compound 21 resulted in cell death through activation of caspase-3 and induction of apoptosis.

- Oxidative iodination of deactivated arenes in concentrated sulfuric acid with I2/NaIO4 and KI/NaIO4 iodinating systems
-
Deactivated arenes were mono- or diiodinated with strong electrophilic I+ reagents, which were prepared from NaIO4 and either I2 or KI in concentrated H2SO4 (minimum 95% by weight). In general a small excess of the dark brown iodinating solution was used (1.1/1.5 equivalents, for nitrobenzene two equivalents was required). The iodinations were conducted at 25-30 °C with a reaction time of 1-2 hours using either a 'direct' or an 'inverse' method of aromatic iodination to give mono- or diiodinated pure products in 31-91% optimized yields.

- Efficient one-pot transformation of aminoarenes to haloarenes using halodimethylisulfonium halides generated in situ
-
Halodimethylsulfonium halide 1, which is readily formed in situ from hydrohaloic acid and DMSO, is a good nucleophilic halide. This activated nucleophilic halide rapidly converts aryldiazonium salt prepared in situ by the same hydrohaloic acid and nitrite ion to aryl chlorides, bromides, or iodides in good yield. The combined action of nitrite ion and hydrohaloic acid in DMSO is required for the direct transformation of aromatic amines, which results in the production of aryl halides within 1 h. Substituted compounds with electron-donating or -withdrawing groups or sterically hindered aromatic amines are also smoothly transformed to the corresponding aromatic halides. The only observed by-product is the deaminated arene (usually 7%). The isolated aryldiazonium salts can also be converted to the corresponding aryl halides using 1. The present method offers a facile, one-step procedure for transforming aminoarenes to haloarenes and lacks the environmental pollutants that usually accompany the Sandmeyer reaction using copper halides.

- Easy, inexpensive and effective oxidative iodination of deactivated arenes in sulfuric acid
-
Two 'model' deactivated arenes, benzoic acid and nitrobenzene, were effectively monoiodinated within 1 h at 25-30 °C, with strongly electrophilic I+ reagents, prior prepared from diiodine and various oxidants (CrO3, KMnO4, active MnO2, HIO 3, NaIO3, or NaIO4) in 90% (v/v) concd sulfuric acid (ca. 75 mol% H2SO4). Next, an I2/ NaIO3/90% (v/v) concd H2SO4 exemplary system was used to effectively mono- or diiodinate a number of deactivated arenes. All former papers dealing with the direct iodination of deactivated arenes are briefly reviewed.

- Iodination of both deactivated and activated arenes with sodium periodate or sodium iodate as the oxidants
-
Five easy, relatively inexpensive, and environmentally-safe aromatic oxidative iodination procedures are presented; three of them are particularly suitable for deactivated arenes. Nine deactivated arenes, four halobenzenes, benzene, toluene, and N,N-dimethylaniline were reacted upon with the following anhydrous systems: diiodine/NaIO4 or (in four cases) NaIO3/acetic anhydride/glacial acetic acid, acidified with varying amounts of concd (98%) sulfuric acid; the following workups are explained. The aromatic oxidative iodination reactions proceeded mostly at room temperature and within 1-8 h to give fifteen mono- and two diiodinated purified products (sometimes obtained in 2-3 different ways) in 51-95% yields.

- The direct iodination of arenes with chromium(VI) oxide as the oxidant
-
An easy and cheap laboratory method is presented for the direct mono- and diiodination of a number of activated and deactivated arenes. The main iodination reactions occurred at the temperatures not exceeding 65°C for 0.5-12 h in the anhydrous, strongly acidic liquid system, I2/AcOH/Ac2O/H2SO4, in the presence of prior dissolved CrO3 used as the oxidant. The yields of the pure iodinated products varied from 31% (for 3,5- diiodobenzoic acid) up to 90% (for 4-iodoanisole). So far, benzonitrile and some oxidizable aromatics, e.g. naphthalene, fluorene, xanthene, and thiophene, have been found to be unsuitable for the effective iodination. Nevertheless, this novel, simple method of direct iodination is worthy to be extended to other appropriate aromatics.

- Multinuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic and Semiempirical Molecular Orbital (AM1) Studies of Substituted Anisoles
-
13C, 15N, and 17O NMR spectra have been recorded for 4-nitroanisole (1), its 2-methyl-, 2-chloro-, 2-bromo-, 2-iodo-, 2,6-diamethyl-, 2,6-dichloro, 2,6-dibromo-, and 2,6-diiodo-derivatives 2-9, also nitrobenzene (1a), its 3-methyl-, 3-chloro-, 3-bromo-, and 3-iodo-derivatives 2a-5a and 3,5-dichloro- and 3,5-dibromo-derivatives 7a and 8a.Analysis of the chemical shifts of carbon bearing nitro group and nitro oxygens in these compounds suggests that presence of one substituent ortho- to the methoxyl group enhances its resonance interaction with the benzene ring whereas presence of two ortho-substituents inhibits this resonance.However, in no case the resonance is completely inhibited.The extent of enhancement or inhibition is almost independent of the nature of the ortho-substituent.This conclusion has also been arrived by analyzing the reported chemical shifts of the para-carbons in anisoles 1b-9b and the corresponding carbons in benzene derivatives 1c-9c.Though evidence could not be obtained for steric enhancement of resonance using methoxyl oxygen chemical shifts, analysis of these chemical shifts in di-ortho-substituted anisoles 6-9 and 6a furnishes evidence for steric inhibition of resonance.However, 15N chemical shifts are of no use in studying these phenomena.Semiempirical molecular orbital calculations using AM1 Hamiltonian suggest that the methoxyl group is coplanar with the benzene ring in anisole, 4-nitroanisole and 2-substituted-4-nitroanisoles but is perpendicular to the benzene ring in 2,6-disubstituted-4-nitroanisoles.Moreover, in 2-substituted-4-nitroanisoles the O-methyl group is anti to the 2-substituent.

- Mercury in Organic Chemistry. 26. Synthesis of Heterocycles via Intramolecular Solvomercuration of Aryl Acetylenes
-
A number of ortho substituted aryl acetylenes, o-CH3XC6H4YCCR (X=O, S, CO2; Y=-, CO), have been observed to undergo facile intramolecular solvomercuration with mercuric acetate in acetic acid to afford the corresponding benzofuran, benzothiophene, isocoumarin, and chromone organomercuric chlorides, after aqueous sodium chloride workup.The aryl acetylenes m-XC6H4YCH2CCR (X=H, Y=O, R=CH3; X=CH3O, Y=CH2, R=n-C3H7) undergo similar cyclizations to yield mercurated 2H-1-benzopyrans and 1,2-dihydronaphthalenes.The mercuration and subsequent carbonylation of o-R1OC6H4CCR2 1=Si(t-Bu)Me2, R2=CH3; R1=CH3, R2=o-C6H4OCH3> has provided a new approach to the coumarin and coumestan ring systems.

- The Kinetics of the Reactions of Picryl Chloride with Some Substituted Anilines. Part 6. 4-Substituted and 3,4-Disubstituted Anilines
-
Arrhenius parameters have been measured for the reactions of picryl chloride with the following substituted anilines in acetonitrile: 4-X- (X = F, Cl, Br, I, Me, or OMe); 3,4-X2- (X = Cl, Br, Me, or OMe); 4-X-3-nitro- (X = F, Cl, or Me); 3-X-4-methoxy- (X = F, Cl, Br, or I); 3-fluoro-4-nitro-; and 3,4,5-trimethoxy-aniline.In the 3,4-disubstituted series the effect of two methyl groups on the free energy of activation is strictly additive, but for the rest the measured rate constants are greater than those calculated on the assumption of additivity.The results are rationalized in terms of the positions of the transition state on the reaction co-ordinate.
