Organic synthesis of a ligand with high binding affinities for paramagnetic lanthanide ions is an effective way of generating paramagnetic effects on proteins. These paramagnetic effects manifested in high-resolution NMR spectroscopy are valuable dynamic and structural restraints of proteins and protein–ligand complexes. A paramagnetic tag generally contains a metal chelating moiety and a reactive group for protein modification. Herein we report two new DTPA-like tags, 4PS-PyDTTA and 4PS-6M-PyDTTA that can be site-specifically attached to a protein with a stable thioether bond. Both protein-tag adducts form stable lanthanide complexes, of which the binding affinities and paramagnetic tensors are tunable with respect to the 6-methyl group in pyridine. Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) effects of Gd(III) complex on protein-tag adducts were evaluated in comparison with pseudocontact shift (PCS), and the results indicated that both 4PS-PyDTTA and 4PS-6M-PyDTTA tags are rigid and present high-quality PREs that are crucially important in elucidation of the dynamics and interactions of proteins and protein-ligand complexes. We also show that these two tags are suitable for in-situ protein NMR analysis.

A series of 8-heteroarylthiomethyldipyridodiazepinone derivatives were prepared and evaluated for their antiviral profile against wild type virus and the important K103N/Y181C mutant as an indicator for broad activity. 2,6-Dimethylpyridine derivative 16 was found to have a good pharmacokinetic profile in spite of poor metabolic stability in rat liver microsomes.

The oxidation of 2-substituted pyridines and selected N-containing aromatic heterocycles by dimethyldioxirane (1) produced the corresponding N-oxides as the sole products, quantitatively in most cases. The second order rate constants for N-oxidation by 1 in dried acetone at 23°C were determined for a series of 2-substituted pyridines 2-10, quinolines 11-14 and isoquinolines 15,16. An excellent correlation of log k2 with Taft (σ*) constants was obtained for 2-substituted pyridines (R = Me, Et, Prn, Pr i, 3-pentyl) with the exception of the data for 2-f-butylpyridine. The results for the substituted quinolines and isoquinolines followed the same trends observed with the pyridines. Steric effects due to 2-substitution and periinteractions can substantially reduce reactivity. The results provide insights into the geometrical requirements for N-oxidation by dimethyldioxirane.
Single-armed phenylsulfonated pyridine derivative of DOTA is rigid and stable paramagnetic tag in protein analysis

Single-armed DOTA-like phenylsulfonated pyridine derivatives are rigid and stable paramagnetic tags for site-specific labeling of proteins. Their reactions with a solvent-exposed protein thiol group generate a stable C-S bond and produce one single paramagnetic species in solution NMR. The generated large paramagnetic effects yield valuable long-range structural restraints for proteins.

The crystal structure of 2,6-dimethyl-4-nitropyridine N-oxide (DMNPO) has been determined at ambient temperature. The compound crystallizes as a monoclinic structure, space group P2/n, with 12 molecules per unit cell. The unit cell contains three non-equivalent formula units. The nitro group is not coplanar with the pyridine ring. Through a system of =C-H···O hydrogen bonds the molecules are arranged into a two-dimensional network of layers parallel to the axc plane. The IR and Raman spectra, measured in the 3500-100 cm-1 region at ambient temperature, are correlated with X-ray structural data. The assignment of IR and Raman bands is given. The appearance of characteristic vibrational features in the spectra of this compound and the observed shifts of the =C-H and N-O IR active stretching modes, when the sample is dissolved in CCl4, is discussed in terms of the relatively strong =C-H···O hydrogen bonds present in this crystal.

A highly efficient and selective oxidation of primary and tertiary amines employing SO2F2/H2O2/base system was described. Anilines were converted to the corresponding azoxybenzenes, while primary benzylamines were transformed into nitriles and secondary benzylamines were rearranged to amides. For tertiary amine substrates quinolines, isoquinolines and pyridines, their oxidation products were the corresponding N-oxides. The reaction conditions are very mild and just involve SO2F2, amines, 30% aqueous H2O2 solution, and inorganic base at room temperature. One unique advantage is that this oxidation system is just composed of inexpensive inorganic compounds without the use of any metal and organic compounds.
Methyl Scanning and Revised Binding Mode of 2-Pralidoxime, an Antidote for Nerve Agent Poisoning

Organophosphorus nerve agents (OPNAs) inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and, despite the Chemical Weapons Convention arms control treaty, continue to represent a threat to both military personnel and civilians. 2-Pralidoxime (2-PAM) is currently the only therapeutic countermeasure approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for treating OPNA poisoning. However, 2-PAM is not centrally active due to its hydrophilicity and resulting poor blood-brain barrier permeability; hence, these deficiencies warrant the development of more hydrophobic analogs. Specifically, gaps exist in previously published structure activity relationship (SAR) studies for 2-PAM, thereby making it difficult to rationally design novel analogs that are concomitantly more permeable and more efficacious. In this study, we methodically performed a methyl scan on the core pyridinium of 2-PAM to identify ring positions that could tolerate both additional steric bulk and hydrophobicity. Subsequently, SAR-guided molecular docking was used to rationalize hydropathically feasible binding modes for 2-PAM and the reported derivatives. Overall, the data presented herein provide new insights that may facilitate the rational design of more efficacious 2-PAM analogs.
