- Identification of Piperidine-3-carboxamide Derivatives Inducing Senescence-like Phenotype with Antimelanoma Activities
-
This study evaluated the potential use of senescence-inducing small molecules in the treatment of melanoma. We screened commercially available small-molecule libraries with high-throughput screening and high-content screening image-based technology. Our findings showed an initial hit with the embedded N-arylpiperidine-3-carboxamide scaffold-induced senescence-like phenotypic changes in human melanoma A375 cells without serious cytotoxicity against normal cells. A focused library containing diversely modified analogues were constructed and examined to evaluate the structure-activity relationship of N-arylpiperidine-3-carboxamide derivatives starting from hit 1. This work identified a novel compound with remarkable antiproliferative activity in vitro and demonstrated the key structural moieties within.

- AMINATION AND HYDROXYLATION OF ARYLMETAL COMPOUNDS
-
In one aspect, the present disclosure provides methods of preparing a primary or secondary amine and hydroxylated aromatic compounds. In some embodiments, the aromatic compound may be unsubstituted, substituted, or contain one or more heteroatoms within the rings of the aromatic compound. The methods described herein may be carried out without the need for transition metal catalysts or harsh reaction conditions.

- Rapid heteroatom transfer to arylmetals utilizing multifunctional reagent scaffolds
-
Arylmetals are highly valuable carbon nucleophiles that are readily and inexpensively prepared from aryl halides or arenes and widely used on both laboratory and industrial scales to react directly with a wide range of electrophiles. Although C-C bond formation has been a staple of organic synthesis, the direct transfer of primary amino (-NH2) and hydroxyl (-OH) groups to arylmetals in a scalable and environmentally friendly fashion remains a formidable synthetic challenge because of the absence of suitable heteroatom-transfer reagents. Here, we demonstrate the use of bench-stable N-H and N-alkyl oxaziridines derived from readily available terpenoid scaffolds as efficient multifunctional reagents for the direct primary amination and hydroxylation of structurally diverse aryl- and heteroarylmetals. This practical and scalable method provides one-step synthetic access to primary anilines and phenols at low temperature and avoids the use of transition-metal catalysts, ligands and additives, nitrogen-protecting groups, excess reagents and harsh workup conditions.

- Scaffold Hopping and Optimization of Maleimide Based Porcupine Inhibitors
-
Porcupine is an O-acyltransferase that regulates Wnt secretion. Inhibiting porcupine may block the Wnt pathway which is often dysregulated in various cancers. Consequently porcupine inhibitors are thought to be promising oncology therapeutics. A high throughput screen against porcupine revealed several potent hits that were confirmed to be Wnt pathway inhibitors in secondary assays. We developed a pharmacophore model and used the putative bioactive conformation of a xanthine inhibitor for scaffold hopping. The resulting maleimide scaffold was optimized to subnanomolar potency while retaining good physical druglike properties. A preclinical development candidate was selected for which extensive in vitro and in vivo profiling is reported.

- Design and synthesis of boronic acid inhibitors of endothelial lipase
-
Endothelial lipase (EL) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) are homologous lipases that act on plasma lipoproteins. EL is predominantly a phospholipase and appears to be a key regulator of plasma HDL-C. LPL is mainly a triglyceride lipase regulating (V)LDL levels. The existing biological data indicate that inhibitors selective for EL over LPL should have anti-atherogenic activity, mainly through increasing plasma HDL-C levels. We report here the synthesis of alkyl, aryl, or acyl-substituted phenylboronic acids that inhibit EL. Many of the inhibitors evaluated proved to be nearly equally potent against both EL and LPL, but several exhibited moderate to good selectivity for EL.

- π-extended and six-coordinate iron(II) complexes: Structures, magnetic properties, and the electrochemical synthesis of a conducting iron(II) metallopolymer
-
Herein, we describe the preparation of three new bidentate π-extended derivatives of the ligand N-phenyl-2-pyridinalimine (ppi) containing a 3-thienyl (4) substituent at position 4 of the aniline ring or 2-thienyl (6) or phenyl (2) substituents at each of the 2,5 positions of the aniline rings. Three iron(2+) complexes (7-9) containing these ligands were prepared by combining two equivalents each of 2, 4, or 6 with Fe(NCS)2, and the resulting neutral, six-coordinate complexes were fully characterized, including with single crystal X-ray diffraction experiments in the case of complexes 7 and 9. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility and Moessbauer experiments confirm the presence of spin-crossover in complexes 7 and 8, and the unusual solid state variable temperature magnetic properties of complex 9 likely result from crystal packing forces. Electropolymerization of the 2,5-dithienyl- substituted complex (9) produces a conducting and electrochromic metallopolymer film (poly-9).
