- Energetic Di-and trinitromethylpyridines: Synthesis and characterization
-
Pyridine derivatives based on the addition of trinitromethyl functional groups were synthesized by the reaction of N2O4 with the corresponding pyridinecarboxaldoximes, then they were converted into dinitromethylide hydrazinium salts. These energetic compounds were fully characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and X-ray crystallography. These pyridine derivatives have good densities, positive enthalpies of formation, and acceptable sensitivity values. Theoretical calculations carried out using Gaussian 03 and EXPLO5 programs demonstrated good to excellent detonation velocities and pressures. Each of these compounds is superior in performance to TNT, while 2,6-bis(trinitromethyl)pyridine (D = 8700 m·s?1, P = 33.2 GPa) shows comparable detonation performance to that of RDX, but its thermal stability is too low, making it inferior to RDX.

- Vibrational frequency analysis, FT-IR, FT-Raman, ab initio, HF and DFT studies, NBO, HOMO-LUMO and electronic structure calculations on pycolinaldehyde oxime
-
In this work, the vibrational spectral analysis is carried out by using Raman and infrared spectroscopy in the range 100-4000 cm-1and 50-4000 cm-1, respectively, for pycolinaldehyde oxime (PAO) (C 6H6N2O) molecule. The vibrational frequencies have been calculated and scaled values are compared with experimental FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. The structure optimizations and normal coordinate force field calculations are based on HF and B3LYP methods with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The results of the calculation shows excellent agreement between experimental and calculated frequencies in B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The optimized geometric parameters are compared with experimental values of PAO. The non linear optical properties, NBO analysis, thermodynamics properties and mulliken charges of the title molecule are also calculated and interpreted. A study on the electronic properties, such as HOMO and LUMO energies, are performed by time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) approach. Besides, frontier molecular orbitals (FMO), molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) are performed. The effects due to the substitutions of CHNOH ring are investigated. The 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts of the molecule are calculated by the gauge independent atomic orbital (GIAO) method and compared with experimental results.

- A Pd(II) complex derived from pyridine-2-carbaldehyde oxime ligand: Synthesis, characterization, DNA and BSA interaction studies and in vitro anticancer activity
-
A novel Pd(II) complex, [Pd(C6H5N2O)2], containing pyridine-2-carbaldehyde oxime ligand has been synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, Fourier-transform infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopy. The single crystal structure of this Pd(II) complex has been determined by X-ray crystallography. Based on the DNA binding studies including ultraviolet visible spectrophotometry, fluorescence emission titration and viscosity measurement, the interaction of Pd(II) complex with calf thymus DNA occurs by groove binding. In the absence of an external reductant, the Pd(II) complex cleaves the supercoiled double-stranded DNA under physiological conditions. Moreover, in the presence of Pd(II) complex, the Bovine Serum Albumin microenvironment and secondary structure change. On the basis of the competitive experiments using site markers, the complex is mainly located in site I of the protein. The binding of the Pd(II) complex to DNA was modeled using molecular docking. The antitumor impacts of the ligand and the Pd(II) complex were evaluated in vitro against the mouse colon carcinoma (C26) and melanoma (B16–F0) tumor cell lines. The antitumor activity has been significantly improved by the complexation process. IC50 values smaller than those of cisplatin have been shown by the Pd(II) complex and oxime ligand against cancer cell lines. In addition, Pd(II) complex has been tested against NIH normal fibroblast cells. Consequently, Pd(II) complex may be considered a selective compound against cancer cells, according to the SI definition.

- Metal-Stabilized Boronate Ester Cages
-
Molecular cages with arylboronate ester caps at the vertices are described. The cages were obtained by metal-templated polycondensation reactions of a tris(2-formylpyridine oxime) ligand with arylboronic acids. Suited templates are triflate or triflimide salts of ZnII, FeII, CoII, or MnII. In the products, the metal ions are coordinated internally to the pyridyl and oximato N atoms adjacent to the boronate ester, resulting in an improved hydrolytic stability of the latter. It is possible to decorate the cages with cyano or aldehyde groups using functionalized arylboronic acids. The aldehyde groups allow for a postsynthetic modification of the cages via an imine bond formation.

- One-Pot Regioselective Synthesis of 7-Bromo-2H-Benzo[b][1,4]Oxazin-3(4H)-One Linked Isoxazole Hybrids as Anti-Cancer Agents and Their Molecular Docking Studies
-
Abstract: Regioselective synthesis of some novel 7-bromo-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-3(4H)-one linked isoxazole hybrids via copper(I) catalyzed one-pot reaction of various aromatic aldehydes with 7-bromo-4-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-3(4H)-one was developed. The structures of the compounds that are synthesized are confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass spectra. All the hybrids have been tested for their in vitro anticancer activity against four human cancer cell lines, including HeLa, MCF-7, A549, and PC3. Three of the compounds exhibited remarkable anticancer activity compared to standard drug etoposide. Molecular docking studies with EGFR also strengthened the in vitro anticancer activity.

- Synthesis and SAR study of simple aryl oximes and nitrofuranyl derivatives with potent activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis
-
Background: Oximes and nitrofuranyl derivatives are particularly important compounds in medicinal chemistry. Thus, many researchers have been reported to possess antibacterial, antiparasitic, insecticidal and fungicidal activities. Methods: In this work, we report the synthesis and the biological activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RV of a series of fifty aryl oximes, ArCH=N-OH, I, and eight nitrofuranyl compounds, 2-nitrofuranyl-X, II. Results: Among the oximes, I: Ar = 2-OH-4-OH, 42, and I: Ar = 5-nitrofuranyl, 46, possessed the best activity at 3.74 and 32.0 μM, respectively. Also, 46, the nitrofuran compounds, II; X = MeO, 55, and II: X = NHCH2Ph, 58, (14.6 and 12.6 μM, respectively), exhibited excellent biological activities and were non-cytotoxic. Conclusion: The compound 55 showed a selectivity index of 9.85. Further antibacterial tests were performed with compound 55 which was inactive against Enterococcus faecalis, Klebisiella pneumonae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhymurium and Shigel-la flexneri. This study adds important information to the rational design of new lead anti-TB drugs. Structure-activity Relationship (SAR) is reported.

- 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition, HPLC Enantioseparation, and Docking Studies of Saccharin/Isoxazole and Saccharin/Isoxazoline Derivatives as Selective Carbonic Anhydrase IX and XII Inhibitors
-
Two series of saccharin/isoxazole and saccharin/isoxazoline hybrids were synthesized by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. The new compounds showed to be endowed with potent and selective inhibitory activity against the cancer-related human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) IX and XII isoforms in the nanomolar range, while no affinity was encountered for off-targets, such as hCA I and II. Successive enantioseparation on a milligram scale of the most representative compounds led to the discovery that (S)-isomers were more potent than their corresponding (R)-enantiomers. Lastly, molecular modeling studies were conducted to define those structural requirements that were responsible for the discrimination among selected human isoforms of carbonic anhydrases. Two nanomolar hCA IX and XII inhibitors were also screened for their selective toxicity against non tumoral primary cells (fibroblasts) and against a breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF7) in hypoxic environment. The efficacious combination of these compounds with doxorubicin on MCF7 cells was demonstrated after 72 h of treatment.

- Potassium Poly(Heptazine Imide): Transition Metal-Free Solid-State Triplet Sensitizer in Cascade Energy Transfer and [3+2]-cycloadditions
-
Polymeric carbon nitride materials have been used in numerous light-to-energy conversion applications ranging from photocatalysis to optoelectronics. For a new application and modelling, we first refined the crystal structure of potassium poly(heptazine imide) (K-PHI)—a benchmark carbon nitride material in photocatalysis—by means of X-ray powder diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Using the crystal structure of K-PHI, periodic DFT calculations were performed to calculate the density-of-states (DOS) and localize intra band states (IBS). IBS were found to be responsible for the enhanced K-PHI absorption in the near IR region, to serve as electron traps, and to be useful in energy transfer reactions. Once excited with visible light, carbon nitrides, in addition to the direct recombination, can also undergo singlet–triplet intersystem crossing. We utilized the K-PHI centered triplet excited states to trigger a cascade of energy transfer reactions and, in turn, to sensitize, for example, singlet oxygen (1O2) as a starting point to synthesis up to 25 different N-rich heterocycles.

- Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of neutral aryloximes as reactivators of Electrophorus eel acetylcholinesterase inhibited by NEMP, a VX surrogate
-
Casualties caused by nerve agents, potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, have attracted attention from media recently. Poisoning with these chemicals may be fatal if not correctly addressed. Therefore, research on novel antidotes is clearly warranted. Pyridinium oximes are the only clinically available compounds, but poor penetration into the blood-brain barrier hampers efficient enzyme reactivation at the central nervous system. In searching for structural factors that may be explored in SAR studies, we synthesized and evaluated neutral aryloximes as reactivators for acetylcholinesterase inhibited by NEMP, a VX surrogate. Although few tested compounds reached comparable reactivation results with clinical standards, they may be considered as leads for further optimization.

- Exploring isoxazoles and pyrrolidinones decorated with the 4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine unit as human farnesyltransferase inhibitors
-
Unprecedented triazinyl-isoxazoles were afforded via an effective cycloaddition reaction between nitrile oxides and the scarcely described 2-ethynyl-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine as dipolarophile. The biological evaluation of the newly synthesized compounds showed that the inhibition of human farnesyltransferase by zinc complexation could be improved with triazine-isoxazole moieties. The replacement of the isoxazole unit by a pyrrolidin-2-one was detrimental to the inhibitory activity while the pyrrolidin-2-thione derivatives conserved the biological potential. The potential of selected compounds to disrupt protein farnesylation in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with pEGFP-CAAX was also evaluated.

- Stereospecific 1,4-Metallate Shift Enables Stereoconvergent Synthesis of Ketoximes
-
Reported herein is a stereospecific 1,4-metallate rearrangement for single-geometry ketoxime synthesis from oxime chlorides and arylboronic acids. This strategy exhibits broad substrate scope with excellent stereoselectivity under mild reaction conditions. In comparison with the conventional approaches, each configuration of unsymmetric diaryl oximes, as well as the thermodynamically less stable Z isomer of aryl alkyl ketoximes can be selectively and exclusively obtained. The reactivities of unsymmetric diaryl oximes and the Z isomer of aryl alkyl oximes, a class of underexplored molecules, enables efficient access to the corresponding isoquinolines, isoquinoline N-oxides, and amides having a single configuration.

A rapid, simple and mild process for the dehydration of aldoximes to give the corresponding nitriles, which utilizes SO 2 F 2 as an efficient reagent, has been developed. A variety of (hetero)arene, alkene, alkyne and aliphatic aldoximes proceeded with high efficiency to afford nitriles in excellent to quantitative yields with great functional group compatibilities in acetonitrile under ambient conditions. Furthermore, an eco-friendly synthetic protocol to access nitriles from aldehydes with ortho -, meta - and para -nitrile groups was also described in aqueous methanol by using inorganic base Na 2 CO 3, and a one-pot synthetic strategy to generate nitriles from aldehydes was proved to be feasible.

- High add valued application of turpentine in crop production through structural modification and qsar analysis
-
Turpentine is a volatile component of resin, which is an abundant forest resource in Southern China. As one of the most important components, the integrated application of-pinene has been studied. The broad-spectrum evaluation of -pinene and its analogues has, therefore, been necessary. In an attempt to expand the scope of agro-activity trials, the preparation and the evaluation of the herbicidal activity of a series of -pinene analogues against three agricultural herbs were carried out. In accordance with the overall herbicidal activity, it is noteworthy that compounds 6k, 6l, and 6m demonstrated extreme activity with IC50 values of 0.065, 0.065, and 0.052 mol active ingredients/hectare against E. crus-galli. The preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) was analyzed and the compounds with the appropriate volatility and substituent type that had beneficial herbicidal activity were analyzed. Simultaneously, the quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model was built and the most important structural features were indicated, which was, to a certain extent, in line with the SAR study. The study aimed to study the application of the forest resource turpentine in agriculture as a potential and alternative approach for comprehensive utilization.

-
Site-selective acylation of α-hydroxyl groups in amides has been achieved in the presence of other primary hydroxyl groups with intrinsic high reactivity. In this methodology, a relatively stable pyridine aldoxime ester was exploited as an acyl donor to suppress undesired acylation. The catalytic activation of a pyridine aldoxime ester with a Lewis acid produced a cationic complex, which preferentially attracted the Lewis basic α-hydroxyamide via a template effect, to thus facilitate o-acylation.

- Design, synthesis and structure-based optimization of novel isoxazole-containing benzamide derivatives as FtsZ modulators
-
Antibiotic resistance among clinically significant bacterial pathogens is becoming a prevalent threat to public health, and new antibacterial agents with novel mechanisms of action hence are in an urgent need. Utilizing computational docking method and structure-based optimization strategy, we rationally designed and synthesized two series of isoxazol-3-yl- and isoxazol-5-yl-containing benzamide derivatives that targeted the bacterial cell division protein FtsZ. Evaluation of their activity against a panel of Gram-positive and -negative pathogens revealed that compounds B14 and B16 that possessed the isoxazol-5-yl group showed strong antibacterial activity against various testing strains, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and penicillin-resistant S. aureus. Further molecular biological studies and docking analyses proved that the compound functioned as an effective inhibitor to alter the dynamics of FtsZ self-polymerization via a stimulatory mechanism, which finally terminated the cell division and caused cell death. Taken together, these results could suggest a promising chemotype for development of new FtsZ-targeting bactericidal agent.

All the target compounds were characterized by HRMS, FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Furthermore, the quorum sensing inhibitory activities of synthesized compounds were evaluated with Chromobacterium violaceum (C. Violaceum CV026) based on their inhibition of violacein production, with compound C10-HSL as a positive control. The compounds 8a, 8c and 8f exhibited considerable levels of inhibitory activity against violacein production, and IC50 values were 217?±?19, 223?±?20 and 42.8?±?4.5?μM, respectively, which highlighted the potential of these compounds as lead structures for further research towards the development of novel QS inhibitors.

[3+2] reactions play a key role in constructing various pharmaceutical moleculars. In this study, using Mn(OAc)3 mediated and 1,3-dipolar [3+2] cyclization reactions, 38 novel dihydrofuran and dihydroisoxazole analogues of isoCA-4 were synthesized as inhibitors of tubulin polymerization. Among them, compound 6g was found to be the most potent cytotoxic agents against PC-3 cells with IC50 value of 0.47 μM, and compound 5p exhibted highest activity on HeLa cells with IC50 vaule of 2.32 μM. Tubulin polymerization assay revealed that 6g was a dose-dependent and effective inhibitor of tubulin assembly. Immunohistochemistry studies and cell cycle distribution analysis indicated that 6g severely disrupted microtubule network and significantly arrested most cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle in PC-3 cells. In addition, molecular docking studies showed that two chiral isomers of 6g can bind efficiently and similarly at colchicine binding site of tubulin.

- Laccase-catalysed biotransformation of collismycin derivatives. A novel enzymatic approach for the cleavage of oximes
-
Analogues of the natural product collismycin bearing a carboxylic acid moiety has been efficiently synthesised from several collismycin precursors through a laccase-catalysed oxidation under mild conditions with TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl) as a mediator and aerial O2 as an oxidant in aqueous medium. The biotransformations proceeded with excellent yields (85-95%) and involved, depending on the precursor, the oxidation of a benzylic hydroxyl group or the bioconversion of an aldoxime group into carboxylic acid. Since the latter is herein reported for the first time, we explored the potential of this novel oxime cleavage with several synthetic aldo- and ketoximes. Thus, the laccase/TEMPO system proved to be an efficient and green alternative for the deprotection of both aromatic and aliphatic ketoximes into the corresponding ketones. On the other hand, the reaction with aldoximes leads to dimeric species generated by coupling reactions.

- Water-Assisted Nitrile Oxide Cycloadditions: Synthesis of Isoxazoles and Stereoselective Syntheses of Isoxazolines and 1,2,4-Oxadiazoles
-
Conventional methods generate nitrile oxides from oxime halides in organic solvents under basic conditions. However, the present work revealed that water-assisted generation of nitrile oxides proceeds under mild acidic conditions (pH 4-5). Cycloadditions of nitrile oxides with alkynes and alkenes easily occurred in water without using catalysts, thus yielding isoxazoles and isoxazolines, respectively, with excellent stereoselectivity toward five- and six-membered cyclic alkenes. A double stereoselective cycloaddition of two units of a nitrile oxide with cyclohexene was also achieved, thus yielding 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives having a unique hybrid isoxazoline-oxadiazole skeleton. Enantiomerically pure isoxazolines were prepared from monoterpenes with a ring strain. In one case, the isoxazoline with a butterfly-like structure was simply prepared, and it might be used as a ligand in asymmetric catalysis.

A series of phenylpropanoid derivatives were synthesized, and their anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) activity was evaluated in HepG 2.2.15 cells. Most of the synthesized derivatives showed effective anti-HBV activity. Of these compounds, compound 4c-1 showed the most potent anti-HBV activity, demonstrating potent inhibitory effect not only on the secretion of HBsAg (IC50 = 14.18 μM, SI = 17.85) and HBeAg (IC50 = 6.20 μM, SI = 40.82) secretion but also HBV DNA replication (IC50 = 23.43 μM, SI = 10.80). The structureeactivity relationships (SARs) of phenylpropanoid derivatives had been discussed, which were useful for phenylpropanoid derivatives to be explored and developed as novel anti-HBV agents. Moreover, the docking study of all synthesized compounds inside the HLA-A protein (PDB ID: 3OX8) active site were carried out to explore the molecular interactions and a molecular target for activity of phenylpropanoid derivatives with the protein using a moe-docking technique. This study identified a new class of potent anti-HBV agents.

- Ac2O/K2CO3/DMSO: An efficient and practical reagent system for the synthesis of nitriles from aldoximes
-
The transformation of aldoximes to nitriles using acetic anhydride as dehydration agent under mild reaction conditions is reported. The reaction, which proceeds under weak alkaline condition, allows for the conversion of a range of aldoximes including aromatic aldoximes, alphatic aldoximes, and heterocyclic aldoximes in good to excellent yields. This method has also been successfully applied to the synthesis of calcium channel blocker nilvadipine in pilot scale.

- Novel isoxazoline ligand with ferrocene backbone: Preparation and application in Heck reaction with water as solvent
-
Two novel isoxazoline N,N-bidentate ligands with ferrocene backbone have been synthesized and employed for the palladium-catalyzed Heck coupling reaction. Among them, 1,3-bis-(5-ferrocenylisoxazoline-3-yl)benzene was found to be thermally stable and a highly effective ligand for Heck coupling reaction in neat water without N2 protection, affording the desired coupling products in good to excellent yield with high diastereoselectivity. The developed catalytic system was also well workable for 1,2-disubstituted alkenes, which were less involved in the Heck reaction for its larger steric hindrance. Copyright

- Iodine(III)-Mediated [3 + 2] cyclization for one-pot synthesis of benzo[ d ]isoxazole-4,7-diols in aqueous medium
-
A one-pot [3 + 2] cycloadditive synthesis of benzo[d]isoxazole-4,7-diols in aqueous medium was carried out via nitrile oxides and benzoquinone intermediates by taking advantage of iodobenzene diacetate as an oxidant. This method can also be used to synthesize benzodiisoxazole-4,8-diols, isoxazolo[5,4-a]phenazines, and indazole-4,7-diols, which are difficult to obtain by classical methods.

- A facile one-pot synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazole derivatives using hydroxy (tosyloxy) iodobenzene
-
Hydroxy (tosyloxy) iodobenzene (HTIB), a hypervalent iodine reagent, has been extensively used for oxidative transformations. We have developed a one-pot synthesis wherein aldoximes when reacted with alkynes in the presence of HTIB result in the direct formation of isoxazoles. This simple and straightforward reaction allows for ease of purification while leading to the formation of high purity 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles in moderate yields.

- Design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationships of 3,4,5-trisubstituted 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazoles as TGR5 agonists
-
Given its role in the mediation of energy and glucose homeostasis, the G-protein-coupled bile acid receptor1 (TGR5) is considered a potential target for the treatment of type2 diabetes mellitus and other metabolic disorders. By thorough analysis of diverse structures of published TGR5 agonists, a hypothetical ligand-based pharmacophore model was built, and a new class of potent TGR5 agonists, based on the novel 3,4,5-trisubstituted 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazole core, was discovered by rational design. Three distinct synthetic methods for constructing 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazoles and extensive structure-activity relationship studies are reported herein. Compound (R)-54n, the structure of which was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and quantum chemical solid-state TDDFT-ECD calculations, showed the best potency, with an EC50 value of 1.4nM toward hTGR5. Its favorable properties invitro warrant further investigation.

- Isoxazoles: Synthesis, evaluation and bioinformatic design as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors
-
Objectives Inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a common treatment for early stages of Alzheimer's disease. In this study, nine isoxazoles derivatives were tested for their in-vitro AChE activity. The molecular docking showed the interaction of the compounds with the active site. Methods The isoxazoles were synthesized using 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition in the presence of sodium hypochlorite. They were also isolated and characterized by spectroscopic methods. The in-vitro activity was measured by an adapted version of Ellman's assay. Key findings The isoxazoles are described as inhibitors of AChE. The most potent compound in the series exhibited a moderate inhibitory activity (50% inhibitory concentration = 134.87 μm). The design of new compounds was created by using the RACHEL module of the SYBYL software. Conclusions Our research provided enough evidence of the efficacy of isoxazoles as AChE inhibitors. The isoxazoles were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of AChE. The docking study based on a novel series of complexes isoxazole with AChE from Electroporus electricus has demonstrated that the ligand bind is similar to the compounds used as reference. To find new candidates with the isoxazole core that act as inhibitors of AChE, part of the structure of the compound 9 was used for de-novo design. Molecular docking models of the ligand-AChE complexes suggest that the compound 10 is located on the periphery of the AChE active site.

- Ruthenium-catalyzed rearrangement of aldoximes to primary amides in water
-
The rearrangement of aldoximes to primary amides has been studied using the readily available arene-ruthenium(II) complex [RuCl2(η 6-C6Me6){P(NMe2)3}] (5 mol %) as catalyst. Reactions proceeded cleanly in pure water at 100 °C without the assistance of any cocatalyst, affording the desired amides in high yields (70-90%) after short reaction times (1-7 h). The process was operative with both aromatic, heteroaromatic, α,β-unsaturated, and aliphatic aldoximes and tolerated several functional groups. Reaction profiles and experiments using 18O-labeled water indicate that two different mechanisms are implicated in these transformations. In both of them, nitrile intermediates are initially formed by dehydration of the aldoximes. These intermediates are then hydrated to the corresponding amides by the action of a second molecule of aldoxime or water. A kinetic analysis of the rearrangement of benzaldoxime to benzamide is also discussed.

- PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATION FOR TREATING CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE
-
The present invention provides a pharmaceutical formulation comprising: an early release portion comprising as a pharmaceutical active ingredient a statin-based hypolipidic agent, an isomer thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and a slow release portion comprising as a pharmaceutical active ingredient a dihydropyridine-based calcium channel blocking agent, an isomer thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. When compared with a single formulation of each of the drugs or a simple combination formulation of the drugs, the pharmaceutical formulation according to the present invention comprising an early release portion comprising a statin-based hypolipidic agent and a slow release portion comprising a dihydropyridine-based calcium channel blocking agent is pharmaceutically, scientifically, and economically very useful in preventing or treating cardiovascular disease, pulmonary heart disease, pulmonary disease, or kidney disease of patients who have a metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, diabetes, or prediabetes. The formulation of the present invention is effective in preventing antagonistic and side effects between the drugs by making the dissolution rate of the statin-based hypolipidic agent different from that of the dihydropyridine-based calcium channel blocking agent, and in facilitating patient compliance in taking the drugs by administering the two different drugs simultaneously.

- Isoxazolopyridone derivatives as allosteric metabotropic glutamate receptor 7 antagonists
-
This Letter describes the synthesis and evaluation of mGluR7 antagonists in the isoxazolopyridone series. In the course of modification in this class, novel solid support synthesis of the isoxazolopyridone scaffold was developed. Subsequent chemical modification led to the identification of several potent derivatives with improved physicochemical properties compared to a hit compound 1. Among these, 2 showed good oral bioavailability and brain penetrability, suggesting that 2 may be useful for in vivo study to elucidate the role of mGluR7.

We describe here the identification of non-peptidic vinylsulfones that inhibit parasite cysteine proteases in vitro and inhibit the growth of Trypanosoma brucei brucei parasites in culture. A high resolution (1.75 A) co-crystal structure of 8a bound to cruzain reveals how the non-peptidic P2/P3 moiety in such analogs bind the S2 and S3 subsites of the protease, effectively recapitulating important binding interactions present in more traditional peptide-based protease inhibitors and natural substrates.
