SN2 mechanism for alcoholysis, aminolysis, and hydrolysis of acetyl chloride
Bentley, T. William,Llewellyn, Gareth,McAlister, J. Anthony
, p. 7927 - 7932 (1996)
First-order solvolysis rate constants are reported for solvolyses of acetyl chloride in methanol and MeOD, and in binary aqueous mixtures with acetone, acetonitrile, ethanol, methanol, and trifluoroethanol at 0°C. Product selectivities (S = [MeCOOR]/[MeCOOH] x [water]/[alcohol]) are reported for solvolyses in ethanol/ and methanol/water at 0°C. Solvolyses of acetyl chloride show a high sensitivity to changes in solvent ionizing power, consistent with C-Cl bond cleavage. As the solvent is varied from pure ethanol (or methanol) to water, S values and rate-rate profiles show no evidence for the change in reaction channel observed for solvolyses of benzoyl and trimethylacetyl chlorides. However, using rate ratios in 40% ethanol/water and 97% trifluoroethanol/ water (solvents of similar ionizing power but different nucleophilicities) to compare sensitivities to nucleophilic attack, solvolyses of acetyl chloride are over 20-fold more sensitive to nucleophilic attack than benzoyl chloride. The solvent isotope effect of 1.29 (MeOH/MeOD) for acetyl chloride is similar to that for p-methoxybenzoyl chloride (1.22) and is lower than for benzoyl chloride (1.55). Second-order rate constants for aminolyses of acetyl chloride with m-nitroaniline in methanol at 0°C show that acetyl chloride behaves similarly to p-methoxybenzoyl chloride, whereas benzoyl chloride is 40-fold more sensitive to the added amine. The results indicate mechanistic differences between solvolyses of acetyl and benzoyl chlorides, and an SN2 mechanism is proposed for solvolyses and aminolyses by m-nitroaniline of acetyl chloride (i.e. these reactions are probably not carbonyl additions, but a strong sensitivity to nucleophilic attack accounts for their high rates).

Herein, we report an operationally simple, cheap, and catalyst-free method for the transamidation of a diverse range of unactivated amides furnishing the desired products in excellent yields. This protocol is environmentally friendly and operates under extremely mild conditions without using any promoter or additives. Significantly, this strategy has been implied in the chemoselective synthesis of a pharmaceutical molecule, paracetamol, on a gram-scale with excellent yield. We anticipate that this universally applicable strategy will be of great interest in drug discovery, biochemistry, and organic synthesis.

Renewed interest in covalent inhibitors of enzymes implicated in disease states has afforded several agents targeted at protein kinases of relevance to cancers. We now report the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of 6-ethynylpurines that act as covalent inhibitors of Nek2 by capturing a cysteine residue (Cys22) close to the catalytic domain of this protein kinase. Examination of the crystal structure of the non-covalent inhibitor 3-((6-cyclohexylmethoxy-7H-purin-2-yl)amino)benzamide in complex with Nek2 indicated that replacing the alkoxy with an ethynyl group places the terminus of the alkyne close to Cys22 and in a position compatible with the stereoelectronic requirements of a Michael addition. A series of 6-ethynylpurines was prepared and a structure activity relationship (SAR) established for inhibition of Nek2. 6-Ethynyl-N-phenyl-7H-purin-2-amine [IC50 0.15 μM (Nek2)] and 4-((6-ethynyl-7H-purin-2-yl)amino)benzenesulfonamide (IC50 0.14 μM) were selected for determination of the mode of inhibition of Nek2, which was shown to be time-dependent, not reversed by addition of ATP and negated by site directed mutagenesis of Cys22 to alanine. Replacement of the ethynyl group by ethyl or cyano abrogated activity. Variation of substituents on the N-phenyl moiety for 6-ethynylpurines gave further SAR data for Nek2 inhibition. The data showed little correlation of activity with the nature of the substituent, indicating that after sufficient initial competitive binding to Nek2 subsequent covalent modification of Cys22 occurs in all cases. A typical activity profile was that for 2-(3-((6-ethynyl-9H-purin-2-yl)amino)phenyl)acetamide [IC50 0.06 μM (Nek2); GI50 (SKBR3) 2.2 μM] which exhibited >5-10-fold selectivity for Nek2 over other kinases; it also showed > 50% growth inhibition at 10 μM concentration against selected breast and leukaemia cell lines. X-ray crystallographic analysis confirmed that binding of the compound to the Nek2 ATP-binding site resulted in covalent modification of Cys22. Further studies confirmed that 2-(3-((6-ethynyl-9H-purin-2-yl)amino)phenyl)acetamide has the attributes of a drug-like compound with good aqueous solubility, no inhibition of hERG at 25 μM and a good stability profile in human liver microsomes. It is concluded that 6-ethynylpurines are promising agents for cancer treatment by virtue of their selective inhibition of Nek2. This journal is

A metal-free N-acylation method of anilines with 1,3-diketones has been developed, by using iodine and p-toluene sulfonic acid as the co-catalysts. The reaction can proceed in 1,4-dioxane at elevated temperature to produce the corresponding amides with 48–89% yields. Further, the gram-scale experiment was carried out under the standard conditions and the possible mechanism was proposed.

A novel, mild and practical protocol for the efficient activation of the Beckmann rearrangement utilizing the readily available and economical sulfuryl fluoride (SO2F2 gas) has been developed. The substrate scope of the operationally simple methodology has been demonstrated by 37 examples with good to nearly quantitative isolated yields (over 90 % yield in most cases) in a short time, including B(OH)2, COOH, NH2, and OH substituted substrates. A tentative mechanism was proposed involving formation and elimination of key intermediate, sulfonyl ester.

The broader and systematic application of a novel scaffold is often hampered by the unavailability of a short and reliable synthetic access. We investigated a new strategy for the design and synthesis of an array of N2-substituted aza-2H-indazole derivatives as potential kinase inhibitors. Guided by a rational ligand alignment approach to qualify the so-far underrepresented aza-2H-indazole scaffold, indazoles were connected at the N2 position with a phenyl spacer and an arylsulfonamide or amide linkage. Initial profiling against a panel of 30 kinases confirmed the in silico predicted selectivity bias. A synthesized focused library of 52 different aza-2H-indazole derivatives showed good initial selective inhibition against SGK1, Tie2, and SRC kinases, with the best representatives having IC50 values in the range of 500 nm. In a comparative computational study, these data were analyzed and rationalized in light of docking studies.

The activity of DNA repair enzyme 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1), which excises oxidized base 8-oxoguanine (8-OG) from DNA, is closely linked to mutagenesis, genotoxicity, cancer, and inflammation. To test the roles of OGG1-mediated repair in these pathways, we have undertaken the development of noncovalent small-molecule inhibitors of the enzyme. Screening of a PubChem-annotated library using a recently developed fluorogenic 8-OG excision assay resulted in multiple validated hit structures, including selected lead hit tetrahydroquinoline 1 (IC50 = 1.7 μM). Optimization of the tetrahydroquinoline scaffold over five regions of the structure ultimately yielded amidobiphenyl compound 41 (SU0268; IC50 = 0.059 μM). SU0268 was confirmed by surface plasmon resonance studies to bind the enzyme both in the absence and in the presence of DNA. The compound SU0268 was shown to be selective for inhibiting OGG1 over multiple repair enzymes, including other base excision repair enzymes, and displayed no toxicity in two human cell lines at 10 μM. Finally, experiments confirm the ability of SU0268 to inhibit OGG1 in HeLa cells, resulting in an increase in accumulation of 8-OG in DNA. The results suggest the compound SU0268 as a potentially useful tool in studies of the role of OGG1 in multiple disease-related pathways.

A convenient green method has been developed for the synthesis of biogenic CuFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles using tea extracts within a very short reaction time. The prepared nanoparticles with an average size of 8.78 nm have been used as an effective catalyst for the acetylation of various alcohols, phenols and amines in good to excellent yields under solvent-free conditions. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, XPS, VSM, SEM and TEM study. A magnetic study of the fresh and recycled catalyst after the fourth cycle was performed by VSM measurement. The main advantages of this protocol are simple biogenic synthesis of the catalyst, a reusable and heterogeneous catalytic system, and short reaction times with excellent yields.
