- Iodine-Mediated Sulfenylation of Imidazo[1,2- a ]pyridines with Ethyl Arylsulfinates
-
A simple iodine-mediated approach is reported for the synthesis of sulfenylated imidazo[1,2- a ]pyridines through the reaction of imidazo[1,2- a ]pyridines with ethyl arylsulfinates under mild conditions. The reaction scope was investigated, and a plausible mechanism is proposed to elucidate the reaction process and activation mode. The results indicate that ethyl sulfinates are efficient sulfur sources for the construction of C-S bonds.

- A mild and chemoselective CALB biocatalysed synthesis of sulfoxides exploiting the dual role of AcOEt as solvent and reagent
-
A mild, chemoselective and sustainable biocatalysed synthesis of sulfoxides has been developed exploiting CALB and using AcOEt with a dual role of more environmentally friendly reaction solvent and enzyme substrate. A series of sulfoxides, including the drug omeprazole, have been synthesised in high yields and with excellent E-factors.

- Discovery of carboxyl-containing biaryl ureas as potent RORγt inverse agonists
-
GSK805 (1) is a potent RORγt inverse agonist, but a drawback of 1 is its low solubility, leading to a limited absorption in high doses. We have explored detailed structure-activity relationship on the amide linker, biaryl and arylsulfonyl moieties of 1 trying to improve solubility while maintaining RORγt activity. As a result, a novel series of carboxyl-containing biaryl urea derivatives was discovered as potent RORγt inverse agonists with improved drug-like properties. Compound 3i showed potent RORγt inhibitory activity and subtype selectivity with an IC50 of 63.8 nM in RORγ FRET assay and 85 nM in cell-based RORγ-GAL4 promotor reporter assay. Reasonable inhibitory activity of 3i was also achieved in mouse Th17 cell differentiation assay (76percent inhibition at 0.3 μM). Moreover, 3i had greatly improved aqueous solubility at pH 7.4 compared to 1, exhibited decent mouse PK profile and demonstrated some in vivo efficacy in an imiquimod-induced psoriasis mice model.

- Synthesis of Aromatic Sulfones from SO2 and Organosilanes Under Metal-free Conditions
-
The conversion of SO2 into arylsulfones under metal-free conditions was achieved for the first time by reacting SO2 with (hetero)arylsilanes and alkylhalides in the presence of a fluoride source. The mechanism of this transformation was elucidated based on DFT calculations, which highlight the influence of SO2 in promoting C?Si bond cleavage.

- Synthesis of 5-(ethylsulfonyl)-2-methoxyaniline: An important pharmacological fragment of VEGFR2 and other inhibitors
-
Background: 5-(Ethylsulfonyl)-2-methoxyaniline (5) is part of the structure in 131 compounds possessing different biological activities. In most cases, they have antitumor properties (112 compounds). Other compounds are described as cardiovascular agents, ion-channel blockers, nervous-system blockers, anti-inflammatory agents, or antidiabetic, antiosteoporotic and hypolipemic species. Compound 5 is a precursor of different protein-kinase inhibitors or enzyme modulators (EGFR, PDGFR, ckit, CDK 2 and 4, MMPs 2, 3, 9 and 13, etc.). The structure of 5 represents a fragment for several powerful inhibitors of VEGFR2, a key angiogenic receptor. Antiangiogenic inhibitors slow down or stop new blood-vessel formation from pre-existing vasculature. Some antiangiogenic drugs inhibiting the VEGFR2 receptor are successfully used in clinics for the treatment of several types of tumours in synergy with chemotherapy (e.g., Nexavar from Bayer, Sutent from Pfizer and Votrient from GlaxoSmithKline, approved by the FDA in 2005, 2006 and 2009, respectively). The structure of 5 is an important pharmacophoric fragment of potent VEGFR2 inhibitors (e.g., AAZ from PDB complex 1Y6A, enzymatic IC50 = 22 nM). Up to now, 25 VEGFR2 inhibitors possessing a fragment of 5 can be found in the literature. Despite the high significance of 5-(ethylsulfonyl)-2-methoxyaniline (5) its preparation has not yet been described. Results: Here we have developed a convenient synthesis of important polyheterosubstituted aniline 5 starting from commercially available 4-methoxybenzene-1-sulfonyl chloride (1) in four steps and 59% overall yield. The target 5-(ethylsulfonyl)-2-methoxyaniline (5) and its synthetic intermediates 2-4 together with a new compound 5-(ethylsulfonyl)-2-methoxy-1,3-dinitrobenzene (4a) have been precisely physicochemically characterised.

- 1,4-Bis(alkylsulfonyl)benzenes. A new and unexpected cathodic cleavage leading to the corresponding phenoxy ions
-
1,4-Bis(alkylsulfonyl)benzenes 2 exhibit the formation of a fairly stable anion radical under cathodic electron transfer. Its fragmentation leads both to 1-alkylsulfonyl-4-alkyl benzenes (ipso substitution) and 4- alkylsulfonylphenoxy ions, the presence of the latter suggesting a new mode of cleavage for strongly activated sulfones.

- SELECTIVE CLEAVAGE OF THE CARBON-SULPHUR AND CARBON-OXYGEN BONDS IN METHOXYTHIOANISOLES
-
Selective cleavage of thioether or ether functions in methoxythioanisoles in hexamehtylphosphoramide (HMPA) with sodium gives methoxythiophenols by cleavage of the carbon-sulphur bond.Reactions with sodium isopropanethiolate give instead the thiomethoxyphenols by dealkylation of the methoxy function.When the methoxythioanisoles were treated first with sodium isopropanethiolate and then with sodium complete dealkylation was achieved with formation of mercaptophenols.The present methods have considerable advantages over existing procedures for the synthesis of methoxythiophenols, thiomethoxyphenols and mercaptophenols.The mechanistic implications of the reactions investigated are also discussed.
