Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common malignancy in men worldwide. Here, two series of novel thiohydantoin derivatives of enzalutamide as potent androgen receptor (AR) antagonists were designed and synthesized. Among them, compound 31c was identified as an AR antagonist which is 2.3–fold more potent than enzalutamide. Molecular docking studies were performed to explain the improved potency of 31c at AR. In cell proliferation assays, 31c exhibited similar anti-proliferative activities with enzalutamide against hormone sensitive LNCaP cells and AR-overexpressing LNCaP/AR cells. These data indicate that 31c can be a good lead compound for further structure optimization for the treatment of prostate cancer.

Quinoline derivatives are important natural products and pharmaceuticals, but their synthesis can be challenging due to poor yields, harsh reaction conditions, and instability of starting materials. Here we report the chemoenzymatic synthesis of quinaldic acids under mild conditions using an aldolase, trans-o-hydroxybenzylidenepyruvate hydratase-aldolase (NahE, or HBPA). A series of 2-aminobenzaldehydes derived from reduction of the corresponding nitro analogue were reacted with pyruvate in the presence of NahE to give substituted quinolines in up to 93% isolated yield. This reaction differs from the aldol condensation catalyzed by NahE in vivo, instead resembling the heterocycle formation catalyzed by its homologue, dihydrodipicolinate synthase.
