- Preparation of highly functionalized 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles via palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling
-
The preparation of a range of 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles has been achieved through palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling. Using appropriately substituted 5-p-toluenesulfonyltetrazoles as substrates (obtained by cycloaddition of a substituted azide with p-toluenesulfonyl cyanide), this methodology provides access to a variety of highly substituted tetrazoles that would be difficult to access otherwise. The procedure is compatible with functional groups commonly found in drug-like molecules, and has been used to generate a number of compounds of potential biological interest.

- Two-Step Protocol for Iodotrimethylsilane-Mediated Deoxy-Functionalization of Alcohols
-
We have developed a two-step protocol for iodotrimethylsilane-mediated deoxy-functionalization of primary and secondary alcohols to afford products containing a C?N, C?S, or C?O bond. In the first step the alcohol undergoes iodination with iodotrimethylsilane, and in the second, the iodine atom is replaced by a N, S, or O nucleophile. Compared with traditional Mitsunobu reaction, non-acidic pre-nucleophiles can be used, and the reaction proceeds with retention of configuration. This operationally simple, highly efficient protocol can be used for some natural products and small-molecule drugs containing hydroxy-group.

- Synthesis, antimicrobial evaluation, and in silico studies of quinoline—1H-1,2,3-triazole molecular hybrids
-
Abstract: Antimicrobial resistance has become a significant threat to global public health, thus precipitating an exigent need for new drugs with improved therapeutic efficacy. In this regard, molecular hybridization is deemed as a viable strategy to afford multi-target-based drug candidates. Herein, we report a library of quinoline—1H-1,2,3-triazole molecular hybrids synthesized via copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne [3 + 2] dipolar cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC). Antimicrobial evaluation identified compound 16 as the most active hybrid in the library with a broad-spectrum antibacterial activity at an MIC80 value of 75.39?μM against methicillin-resistant S. aureus, E. coli, A. baumannii, and multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae. The compound also showed interesting antifungal profile against C. albicans and C. neoformans at an MIC80 value of 37.69 and 2.36?μM, respectively, superior to fluconazole. In vitro toxicity profiling revealed non-hemolytic activity against human red blood cells (hRBC) but partial cytotoxicity to human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293). Additionally, in silico studies predicted excellent drug-like properties and the importance of triazole ring in stabilizing the complexation with target proteins. Overall, these results present compound 16 as a promising scaffold on which other molecules can be modeled to deliver new antimicrobial agents with improved potency.

- Chemo- And regioselective click reactions through nickel-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition
-
Metal-catalyzed cycloaddition is an expeditious synthetic route to functionalized heterocyclic frameworks. However, achieving reactivity-controlled metal-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloadditions from competing internal alkynes has been challenging. Herein, we report a nickel-catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloaddition of unsymmetrical alkynes with organic azides to afford functionalized 1,2,3-triazoles with excellent regio- and chemoselectivity control. Terminal alkynes and cyanoalkynes afford 1,5-disubstituted triazoles and 1,4,5-trisubstituted triazoles bearing a 4-cyano substituent, respectively. Thioalkynes and ynamides exhibit inverse regioselectivity compared with terminal alkynes and cyanoalkynes, affording 1,4,5-trisubstituted triazoles with 5-thiol and 5-amide substituents, respectively. Density functional theory calculations are performed for the elucidation of the reaction mechanism. The computed mechanism suggests that a nickellacyclopropene intermediate is generated by the oxidative addition of the alkyne substrate to the Ni(0)-Xantphos catalyst, and the subsequent C-N coupling of this intermediate with an azide is responsible for the chemo- and regioselectivity.

We describe the synthesis of a range of 6′-triazolyl-dihydroxanthene-hemicyanine (DHX-hemicyanine) fused dyes through an effective copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) "click"reaction, with the aim of providing molecular diversity and evaluating the spectral properties of these near-infrared (NIR)-active materials. This was implemented by reacting 15 different aliphatic and aromatic azides with a terminal alkynyl-based DHX-hemicyanine hybrid scaffold prepared in four steps and 35% overall yield from 4-bromosalicylaldehyde. The resulting triazole derivatives have been fully characterized and their optical properties determined both in organic solvents and under simulated physiological conditions (phosphate buffered saline containing 5% of bovine serum albumin protein). This systematic study is a first important step towards the development of NIR-I fluorogenic "click-on"dyes or related photoactive agents for light-based diagnostic and/or therapeutic applications.

- Highly regioselective and sustainable solar click reaction: A new post-synthetic modified triazole organic polymer as a recyclable photocatalyst for regioselective azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction
-
The synthesis of pharmaceutically active 1,2,3-triazoles has been continuously scrutinized in the search for unique and effective catalysts to make the process efficient, green, and sustainable. Here, we are presenting a new visible light active Ni(ii) cyclam-integrated triazole-linked organic polymer (Ni-TLOP) photocatalyst for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazole compounds with excellent efficiency and regioselectivity. The reaction was studied for a series of substrates and the absolute regioselectivity of a representative triazole product has also been confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The proficiency and chemical orthogonality of the Ni-TLOP are remarkable and it shows enhanced efficiency and regioselectivity. The use of a recyclable photocatalyst and non-hazardous reagents makes the catalytic system sustainable and environmentally friendly. This photocatalyzed click reaction technique has been successfully applied to the expedient synthesis of one of the most sold anti-epileptic drugs rufinamide.

- Rhodium(I)-Catalyzed Regioselective Azide-internal Alkynyl Trifluoromethyl Sulfide Cycloaddition and Azide-internal Thioalkyne Cycloaddition under Mild Conditions

A regioselective method to access fully substituted 5-trifluoromethylthio-1,2,3-triazoles and 5-thio-1,2,3-triazoles from the internal alkynyl trifluoromethyl sulfides and internal thioalkynes by a rhodium(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (RhAAC) reaction under mild conditions has been developed. This approach features good compatibility with water and air, a broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, high yields and excellent regioselectivities. The high 1,5-regioselectivities were controlled by the strong coordination between the sulfur atom and the π-acidic rhodium. The advantages of this method further include its applicability to gram-scale preparation, the use of solid-phase synthesis technique, and the mutually orthogonal CuAAC-RhAAC reaction.

- S-Adenosyl Methionine Cofactor Modifications Enhance the Biocatalytic Repertoire of Small Molecule C-Alkylation
-
A tandem enzymatic strategy to enhance the scope of C-alkylation of small molecules via the in situ formation of S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) cofactor analogues is described. A solvent-exposed channel present in the SAM-forming enzyme SalL tolerates 5′-chloro-5′-deoxyadenosine (ClDA) analogues modified at the 2-position of the adenine nucleobase. Coupling SalL-catalyzed cofactor production with C-(m)ethyl transfer to coumarin substrates catalyzed by the methyltransferase (MTase) NovO forms C-(m)ethylated coumarins in superior yield and greater substrate scope relative to that obtained using cofactors lacking nucleobase modifications. Establishing the molecular determinants that influence C-alkylation provides the basis to develop a late-stage enzymatic platform for the preparation of high value small molecules.

- Identification of highly potent and selective Cdc25 protein phosphatases inhibitors from miniaturization click-chemistry-based combinatorial libraries
-
Cell division cycle 25 (Cdc25) protein phosphatases play key roles in the transition between the cell cycle phases and their association with various cancers has been widely proven, which makes them ideal targets for anti-cancer treatment. Though several Cdc25 inhibitors have been developed, most of them displayed low activity and poor subtype selectivity. Therefore, it is extremely important to discover novel small molecule inhibitors with potent activities and significant selectivity for Cdc25 subtypes, not only served as drugs to treat cancer but also to probe its mechanism in transitions. In this study, miniaturized parallel click chemistry synthesis via CuAAC reaction followed by in situ biological screening were used to discover selective Cdc25 inhibitors. The bioassay results showed that compound M2N12 proved to be the most potent Cdc25 inhibitor, which also act as a highly selective Cdc25C inhibitor and was about 9-fold potent than that of NSC 663284. Moreover, M2N12 showed remarkable anti-growth activity against the KB-VIN cell line, equivalent to that of PXL and NSC 663284. An all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulation approach was further employed to probe the significant selectivity of M2N12 for Cdc25C relative to its structural homologs Cdc25A and Cdc25B. Overall, above results make M2N12 a promising lead compound for further investigation and structural modification.

- Visible-light-driven Efficient Photocatalytic Reduction of Organic Azides to Amines over CdS Sheet–rGO Nanocomposite
-
CdS sheet–rGO nanocomposite as a heterogeneous photocatalyst enables visible-light-induced photocatalytic reduction of aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic and sulfonyl azides to the corresponding amines using hydrazine hydrate as a reductant. The reaction shows excellent conversion and chemoselectivity towards the formation of the amine without self-photoactivated azo compounds. In the adopted strategy, CdS not only accelerates the formation of nitrene through photoactivation of azide but also enhances the decomposition of azide to a certain extent, which entirely suppressed formation of the azo compound. The developed CdS sheet-rGO nanocomposite catalyst is very active, providing excellent results under irradiation with a 40 W simple household CFL lamp.

The over-expression of aminopeptidase N on diverse malignant cells is associated with the tumor angiogenesis and metastasis. In this report, one new series of leucine ureido derivatives containing the triazole moiety was designed, synthesized and evaluated as APN inhibitors. Among them, compound 13v showed the best APN inhibition with an IC50 value of 0.089 ± 0.007 μM, which was two orders of magnitude lower than that of bestatin (IC50 = 9.4 ± 0.5 μM). Compound 13v also showed dose-dependent anti-angiogenesis activities. Even at the lower concentration (10 μM), compound 13v presented similar anti-angiogenesis activity compared with bestatin at 100 μM in both the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) capillary tube formation assay and the rat thoracic aorta rings test. Moreover, compared with bestatin, 13v exhibited comparable, if not better in vivo anti-metastasis activity in a mouse H22 pulmonary metastasis model.

- Rational modifications on a benzylidene-acrylohydrazide antiviral scaffold, synthesis and evaluation of bioactivity against Chikungunya virus
-
Chikungunya virus is a re-emerging arbovirus transmitted to humans by Aedes mosquitoes, responsible for an acute febrile illness associated with painful and debilitating arthralgia, which can persist for several months or become chronic. Over the past few years, infection with this virus has spread worldwide with a previously unknown virulence. No specific antiviral treatments nor vaccines are currently available against this important pathogen. Starting from the structure of a class of selective anti-CHIKV agents previously identified in our research group, different modifications to this scaffold were rationally designed, and 69 novel small-molecule derivatives were synthesised and evaluated for their inhibition of Chikungunya virus replication in Vero cells. Further structure-activity relationships associated with this class of antiviral agents were elucidated for the original scaffolds, and novel antiviral compounds with EC50 values in the low micromolar range were identified. This work provides the foundation for further investigation of these new structures as antivirals against Chikungunya virus.

- A versatile strategy for the synthesis of 4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentanedione (DPD) and related compounds as potential modulators of bacterial quorum sensing
-
Resistance to antibiotics is an increasingly serious threat to global public health and its management translates to significant health care costs. The validation of new Gram-negative antibacterial targets as sources for potential new antibiotics remains a challenge for all the scientists working in this field. The interference with bacterial Quorum Sensing (QS) mechanisms represents a potentially interesting approach to control bacterial growth and pursue the next generation of antimicrobials. In this context, our research is focused on the discovery of novel compounds structurally related to (S)-4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentanedione, commonly known as (S)-DPD, a small signaling molecule able to modulate bacterial QS in both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. In this study, a practical and versatile synthesis of racemic DPD is presented. Compared to previously reported syntheses, the proposed strategy is short and robust: it requires only one purification step and avoids the use of expensive or hazardous starting materials as well as the use of specific equipment. It is therefore well suited to the synthesis of derivatives for pharmaceutical research, as demonstrated by four series of novel DPD-related compounds described herein.

A highly regioselective method to access 5-amido fully substituted 1,2,3-triazoles by iridium-catalyzed azide-ynamide cycloaddition under mild, air, aqueous, and bioorthogonal conditions is reported. The excellent regioselectivities may derive from the strong coordination between the carbonyl oxygen of ynamide and the -acidic iridium. Since the iridium ion is insensitive to oxygen/water and exhibits low cytotoxicity, it could catalyze this reaction in both organic and biological environments efficiently. Preparation in gram-scale and application in carbohydrates highlight this method.

- Dual roles of substituted thiourea as reductant and ligand in CuAAC reaction
-
A highly efficient catalytic system, CuSO4·5H2O/1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-phenylthiourea, for the copper(I)-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC) was discovered. In the above catalytic system, substituted thiourea acts both as a reductant and a ligand. CuSO4·5H2O/1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-phenylthiourea is both an economical and efficient catalyst for the CuAAC reaction. In addition, the new catalytic system has advantageous features including mild and green reaction conditions, and broad substrate compatibility. A variety of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles have been prepared with good to excellent yields with the CuSO4·5H2O/1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-phenylthiourea catalytic system in aqueous solution.

- Direct Regioselective Synthesis of Tetrazolium Salts by Activation of Secondary Amides under Mild Conditions
-
Tetrazolium salts are biologically active molecules that have found broad applications in biochemical assays. A regioselective synthesis of tetrazolium salts is described through a formal (3 + 2) cycloaddition. The possibility of employing simple amides and azides as starting material and the mild conditions allow a broad functional group tolerance.

- Nickel-Catalyzed Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition to Access 1,5-Disubstituted 1,2,3-Triazoles in Air and Water
-
Transition-metal-catalyzed or metal-free azide-alkyne cycloadditions are methods to access 1,4- or 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles. Although the copper-catalyzed cycloaddition to access 1,4-disubstituted products has been applied to biomolecular reaction systems, the azide-alkyne cycloaddition to access the complementary 1,5-regioisomers under aqueous and ambient conditions remains a challenge due to limited substrate scope or moisture-/air-sensitive catalysts. Herein, we report a method to access 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles using a Cp2Ni/Xantphos catalytic system. The reaction proceeds both in water and organic solvents at room temperature. This protocol is simple and scalable with a broad substrate scope including both aliphatic and aromatic substrates. Moreover, triazoles attached with carbohydrates or amino acids are prepared via this cycloaddition.

- General Method for the Synthesis of 1,4-Disubstituted 5-Halo-1,2,3-triazoles
-
A general method for the synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 5-halo-1,2,3-triazoles has been developed. The one-pot two-step process consists of a CuAAC reaction of a copper(I) acetylide with an organic azide catalyzed by (aNHC)CuCl, followed by halogenation with N-chlorosuccinimide, N-bromosuccinimide, or I2.

- Discovery of Novel 11-Triazole Substituted Benzofuro[3,2-b]quinolone Derivatives as c-myc G-Quadruplex Specific Stabilizers via Click Chemistry
-
The specificity of nucleic acids' binders is crucial for developing this kind of drug, especially for novel G-quadruplexes' binders. Quindoline derivatives have been developed as G-quadruplex stabilizers with good interactive activities. In order to improve the selectivity and binding affinity of quindoline derivatives as c-myc G-quadruplex binding ligands, novel triazole containing benzofuroquinoline derivatives (T-BFQs) were designed and synthesized by using the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a series of alkyne and azide building blocks. The selectivity toward c-myc G-quadruplex DNA of these novel T-BFQs was significantly improved, together with an obvious increase on binding affinity. Further cellular and in vivo experiments indicated that the T-BFQs showed inhibitory activity on tumor cells' proliferation, presumably through the down-regulation of transcription of c-myc gene. Our findings broadened the modification strategies of specific G-quadruplex stabilizers.

- Synthesis and Evaluation of a Library of Trifunctional Scaffold-Derived Compounds as Modulators of the Insulin Receptor
-
We designed a combinatorial library of trifunctional scaffold-derived compounds, which were derivatized with 30 different in-house-made azides. The compounds were proposed to mimic insulin receptor (IR)-binding epitopes in the insulin molecule and bind to and activate this receptor. This work has enabled us to test our synthetic and biological methodology and to prove its robustness and reliability for the solid-phase synthesis and testing of combinatorial libraries of the trifunctional scaffold-derived compounds. Our effort resulted in the discovery of two compounds, which were able to weakly induce the autophosphorylation of IR and weakly bind to this receptor at a 0.1 mM concentration. Despite these modest biological results, which well document the well-known difficulty in modulating protein-protein interactions, this study represents a unique example of targeting the IR with a set of nonpeptide compounds that were specifically designed and synthesized for this purpose. We believe that this work can open new perspectives for the development of next-generation insulin mimetics based on the scaffold structure.

- Carboxylate-Assisted Iridium-Catalyzed C-H Amination of Arenes with Biologically Relevant Alkyl Azides
-
An iridium-catalyzed C-H amination of arenes with a wide substrate scope is reported. Benzamides with electron-donating and -withdrawing groups and linear, branched, and cyclic alkyl azides are all applicable. Cesium carboxylate is crucial for both reactivity and regioselectivity of the reactions. Many biologically relevant molecules, such as amino acid, peptide, steroid, sugar, and thymidine derivatives can be introduced to arenes with high yields and 100 % chiral retention. Ir responsible! A direct C-H amination between benzamide derivatives and various alkyl azides was achieved using iridium catalysis (see scheme; NTf=trifluoromethanesulfonyl amide). Cesium carboxylate was found to be the promoter and regiocontroller of this reaction. By this method, many biological active molecules can be introduced to benzamide components with high yields and 100 % chiral retention.

- Fragment-Based Drug Design Facilitated by Protein-Templated Click Chemistry: Fragment Linking and Optimization of Inhibitors of the Aspartic Protease Endothiapepsin
-
There is an urgent need for the development of efficient methodologies that accelerate drug discovery. We demonstrate that the strategic combination of fragment linking/optimization and protein-templated click chemistry is an efficient and powerful method that accelerates the hit-identification process for the aspartic protease endothiapepsin. The best binder, which inhibits endothiapepsin with an IC50value of 43 μm, represents the first example of triazole-based inhibitors of endothiapepsin. Our strategy could find application on a whole range of drug targets.

- O-(triazolyl)methyl carbamates as a novel and potent class of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitors
-
Inhibition of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) activity is under investigation as a valuable strategy for the treatment of several disorders, including pain and drug addiction. A number of potent FAAH inhibitors belonging to different chemical classes have been disclosed to date; O-aryl carbamates are one of the most representative families. In the search for novel FAAH inhibitors, a series of O-(1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl carbamate derivatives were designed and synthesized exploiting a coppercatalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition reaction between azides and alkynes (click chemistry). Exploration of the structure-activity relationships within this new class of compounds identified potent inhibitors of both rat and human FAAH with IC50 values in the single-digit nanomolar range. In addition, these derivatives showed improved stability in rat plasma and kinetic solubility in buffer with respect to the lead compound. Based on the results of the study, the novel analogues identified can be considered to be promising starting point for the development of new FAAH inhibitors with improved drug-like properties.
