Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia. It is associated with the impairment of memory and other cognitive functions that are mainly caused by progressive defects in cholinergic and glutamatergic signaling in the central nervous system. Inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and ionotropic glutamate receptors of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor family are currently approved as AD therapeutics. We previously showed using a cell-based assay of NMDA receptor-mediated glutamate-induced excitotoxicity that bis-γ-carbolinium conjugates are useful NMDA receptor blockers. However, these compounds also act as subnanomolar AChE inhibitors, which may cause serious anticholinergic side effects when applied in vivo. Here, we evaluated new structures containing γ-carbolines linked to phenothiazine via a propionyl spacer. These compounds were superior to the previously characterized bis-γ-carbolinium conjugates because they blocked NMDA receptors without requiring a quaternary pyridine N-atom and inhibited AChE with moderate IC50 values of 0.54–5.3 μM. In addition, these new compounds displayed considerable selectivity for the inhibition of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE; IC50 = 0.008–0.041 μM), which may be favorable for AD treatment. Inhibitory activities towards the NMDA receptors and AChE were in the same micromolar range, which may be beneficial for equal dosing against multiple targets in AD patients.

An enantioselective total synthesis of Tofacitinib (CP-690,550), a Janus tyrosine kinase (JAK3) specific inhibitor has been achieved from the readily available 4-piperidone. Proline catalysed hydroxylation is the key step for the synthesis of enantiopure 1-benzyl-4-methylpiperidin-3-ol.

In this work we describe the synthesis of potent and selective quinolone-based histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitors. The quinolone moiety has been exploited as an innovative bioactive cap-group for HDAC6 inhibition; its synthesis was achieved by applying a multicomponent reaction. The optimization of potency and selectivity of these products was performed by employing computational studies which led to the discovery of the diethylaminomethyl derivatives 7g and 7k as the most promising hit molecules. These compounds were investigated in cellular studies to evaluate their anticancer effect against colon (HCT-116) and histiocytic lymphoma (U9347) cancer cells, showing good to excellent potency, leading to tumor cell death by apoptosis induction. The small molecules 7a, 7g and 7k were able to strongly inhibit the cytoplasmic and slightly the nuclear HDAC enzymes, increasing the acetylation of tubulin and of the lysine 9 and 14 of histone 3, respectively. Compound 7g was also able to increase Hsp90 acetylation levels in HCT-116 cells, thus further supporting its HDAC6 inhibitory profile. Cytotoxicity and mutagenicity assays of these molecules showed a safe profile; moreover, the HPLC analysis of compound 7k revealed good solubility and stability profile.

We previously identified a spiro [piperidine-4,1-pyrido [3,4-b]indole] class of co-potentiators that function in synergy with existing CFTR potentiators such as VX-770 or GLGP1837 to restore channel activity of a defined subset of minimal function cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutants. Here, structure-activity studies were conducted to improve their potency over the previously identified compound, 20 (originally termed CP-A01). Targeted synthesis of 37 spiro [piperidine-4,1-pyrido [3,4-b]indoles] was generally accomplished using versatile two or three step reaction protocols with each step having high efficiency. Structure-activity relationship studies established that analog 2i, with 6′-methoxyindole and 2,4,5-trifluorobenzyl substituents, had the greatest potency for activation of N1303K-CFTR, with EC50 ~600 nM representing an ~17-fold improvement over the original compound identified in a small molecule screen.

A widely applicable approach was developed to synthesize ketones, esters, amides via the oxidative C?C bond cleavage of readily available alkyl aldehydes. Green and abundant molecular oxygen (O2) was used as the oxidant, and base metals (cobalt and copper) were used as the catalysts. This strategy can be extended to the one-pot synthesis of ketones from primary alcohols and α-ketoamides from aldehydes.

Thanks to the widespread use and safety profile of donepezil (1) in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD), one of the most widely adopted multi-target-directed ligand (MTDL) design strategies is to modify its molecular structure by linking a second fragment carrying an additional AD-relevant biological property. Herein, supported by a proposed combination therapy of 1 and the quinone drug idebenone, we rationally designed novel 1-based MTDLs targeting Aβ and oxidative pathways. By exploiting a bioisosteric replacement of the indanone core of 1 with a 1,4-naphthoquinone, we ended up with a series of highly merged derivatives, in principle devoid of the “physicochemical challenge” typical of large hybrid-based MTDLs. A preliminary investigation of their multi-target profile identified 9, which showed a potent and selective butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory activity, together with antioxidant and antiaggregating properties. In addition, it displayed a promising drug-like profile.

Non-tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) infections, such as those caused by Mycobacterium abscessus, are increasing globally. Due to their intrinsic drug resistance, M. abscessus pulmonary infections are often difficult to cure using standard chemotherapy. We previously demonstrated that a piperidinol derivative, named PIPD1, is an efficient molecule both against M. abscessus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the agent of tuberculosis, by targeting the mycolic acid transporter MmpL3. These results prompted us to design and synthesize a series of piperidinol derivatives and to determine the biological activity against M. abscessus. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies pointed toward specific sites on the scaffold that can tolerate slight modifications. Overall, these results identified FMD-88 as a new promising active analogue against M. abscessus. Also, we determined the pharmacokinetics properties of PIPD1 and showed that intraperitoneal administration of this compound resulted in promising serum concentration and an elimination half-life of 3.2 hours.

New N-substituted-2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-c]pyridine derivatives were synthesized employing a convenient one-pot three-component method and their structures were characterized by 1H-NMR and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. All the synthesized compounds were in vitro screened for antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive (Sarcina lutea) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli). In this work, we introduced a chiral residue on the tetrahydropyridine nitrogen, the hitherto the less investigated position on this pharmacophore in order to explore the effect. The antibacterial results showed that the synthesized compounds were active only against Gram-positive bacteria and the (R)-enantiomers displayed a greater antimicrobial potency than their (S)-counterparts. The structure–activity relationship here investigated may provide some interesting clues for future development of tetrahydrothienopyridine derivatives with higher antimicrobial activity.
