A facile and general method for constructing carbon-heteroatom (C-P, C-O, C-S, and C-N) bonds via C-N cleavage of benzyl ammonium salts under transition-metal-free conditions was reported. The combination of t-BuOK and 18-crown-6 enabled a wide range of substituted benzyl ammonium salts to couple readily with different kinds of heteroatom nucleophiles, i.e. hydrogen phosphoryl compounds, alcohols, thiols, and amines. Good functional group tolerance was demonstrated. The scale-up reaction and one-pot synthesis were also successfully performed.

Xanthine oxidase (XO) has emerged as an important target for the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout. In this study, to obtain novel nonpurine XO inhibitors, a series of 1-alkyl-5/6-(5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-1H-indole-3-carbonitriles (1a-1u, 2c, 2e, 2h and 2n) were designed using a bioisosteric replacement strategy and were synthesized through a five-step procedure with good yields. Thereafter, the in vitro XO inhibitory potencies of these compounds were evaluated by spectrophotometry, showing inhibitory profiles in the micromolar/submicromolar range. Particularly, compound 1h emerged as the strongest XO inhibitor, with an IC50 value of 0.36 μM, which was approximately 21-fold more potent than the positive control allopurinol. Additionally, the structure-activity relationships revealed that the 5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazole moiety linked at the 5-position of the indole scaffold was more preferable than the 6-position for the XO inhibitory potency. Enzyme kinetic studies indicated that compound 1h acted as a mixed-type XO inhibitor. Moreover, molecular modeling studies were performed on compound 1h to gain insights into its binding modes with XO. The results showed that the 5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazole moiety could interact with Arg880 and Thr1010 in the innermost part of the active pocket through hydrogen bonds, while the cyano group could form hydrogen bonds with Asn768 and Lys771 in the subpocket. Furthermore, the in vivo hypouricemic effect of compound 1h was further investigated in a hyperuricemia rat model induced by potassium oxonate. The results suggested that compound 1h could effectively reduce serum uric acid levels at an oral dose of 10 mg/kg. Therefore, compound 1h could be a promising lead compound for the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout.

A general and efficient method for the synthesis of 2,3-unsubstituted indoles has been established by the intramolecular cyclization of N-benzyl 2-anilinoacetals. Acidic mesoporous molecular sieve (MCM-41-SO3H) has shown excellent catalytic activity on this transformation, and the 2,3-unsubstituted indoles bearing 7-substituent or strong electron-withdrawing substituents also could be achieved by this protocol. Moreover, the heterogeneous catalyst, MCM-41-SO3H, could be conveniently recovered and reused without obvious loss of the catalytic activity. This work will provide an economic and environmental-benign method for the construction of various indole derivatives.
