Commercially available Pd/C can be used as a catalyst for nitro group reductions with only 0.4 mol % Pd loading. The reaction can be performed using either silane as a transfer hydrogenating agent or simply a hydrogen balloon (μ1 atm pressure). With this technology, a series of nitro compounds was reduced to the desired amines in high chemical yields. Both the catalyst and surfactant were recycled several times without loss of reactivity.

Proprotein convertase (PC) subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibits the clearance of low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol from plasma by directly interacting with the LDL receptor (LDLR). As the interaction promotes elevated plasma LDL cholesterol levels and a predisposition to cardiovascular disease (CVD), it has attracted much interest as a therapeutic target. While anti-PCSK9 monoclonal antibodies have been successful in the treatment of hypercholesteremia by decreasing CVD risk, their high cost and a requirement for injection have prohibited widespread use. The advent of an orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of the PCSK9-LDLR interaction is an attractive alternative, however efforts have been tempered as the binding interface is unfavourable for binding by small organic molecules. Despite its challenging nature, we report herein the discovery of compound 3f as a small molecule inhibitor of PCSK9. The kinase inhibitor nilotinib emerged from a computational screen that was applied to identify compounds that may bind to a cryptic groove within PCSK9 and proximal to the LDLR-binding interface. A subsequent in vitro PCSK9-LDLR binding assay established that nilotinib was a bona fide but modest inhibitor of the interaction (IC50 = 9.8 μM). Through multiple rounds of medicinal chemistry, 3f emerged as a lead-like molecule by demonstrating disruption of the PCSK9-LDLR interaction at nanomolar levels in vitro (IC50 = 537 nM) with no inhibitory activity (IC50 > 10 μM) against a small panel of kinases. Compound 3f restored LDL uptake by liver cells at sub-micromolar levels and demonstrated excellent bioavailability when delivered subcutaneously in mice. Most significantly, compound 3f lowered total cholesterol levels in the plasma of wild-type mice, thereby providing proof-of-concept that the notion of a small molecule inhibitor against PCSK9 is therapeutically viable.
Investigations into the potential role of metabolites on the anti-leukemic activity of imatinib, nilotinib and midostaurin
Manley, Paul W.

The efficacy and side-effects of drugs do not just reflect the biochemical and pharmacodynamic properties of the parent compound, but often comprise of cooperative effects between the properties of the parent and active metabolites. Metabolites of imatinib, nilotinib and midostaurin have been synthesised and evaluated in assays to compare their properties as protein kinase inhibitors with the parent drugs. The N-desmethylmetabolite of imatinib is substantially less active than imatinib as a BCR-ABL1 kinase inhibitor, thus providing an explanation as to why patients producing high levels of this metabolite show a relatively low response rate in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) treatment. The hydroxymethylphenyl and N-oxide metabolites of imatinib and nilotinib are only weakly active as BCR-ABL1 inhibitors and are unlikely to play a role in the efficacy of either drug in CML. The 3-(R)-HO-metabolite of midostaurin shows appreciable accumulation following chronic drug administration and, in addition to mutant forms of FLT3, potently inhibits the PDPK1 and VEGFR2 kinases (IC50 values 100 nM), suggesting that it might contribute to drug efficacy in acute myeloid leukaemia patients. The case studies discussed here provide further examples of how the synthesis and characterisation of metabolites can make important contributions to understanding the clinical efficacy of drugs.
