Discovery of LYS006, a Potent and Highly Selective Inhibitor of Leukotriene A4Hydrolase

The cytosolic metalloenzyme leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H) is the final and rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of pro-inflammatory leukotriene B4 (LTB4). Preclinical studies have validated this enzyme as an attractive drug target in chronic inflammatory diseases. Despite several attempts, no LTA4H inhibitor has reached the market, yet. Herein, we disclose the discovery and preclinical profile of LYS006, a highly potent and selective LTA4H inhibitor. A focused fragment screen identified hits that could be cocrystallized with LTA4H and inspired a fragment merging. Further optimization led to chiral amino acids and ultimately to LYS006, a picomolar LTA4H inhibitor with exquisite whole blood potency and long-lasting pharmacodynamic effects. Due to its high selectivity and its ability to fully suppress LTB4 generation at low exposures in vivo, LYS006 has the potential for a best-in-class LTA4H inhibitor and is currently investigated in phase II clinical trials in inflammatory acne, hidradenitis suppurativa, ulcerative colitis, and NASH.

Simple N-Heterocyclic Carbenes as Ligands in Ullmann-Type Ether and Thioether Formations

A simple N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) derived from 1-methyl-3-ethylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate was found to be an efficient ligand for a range of copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, leading to the formation of aromatic ethers and thioethers. (Figure presented.) .

Cleavage of the Carbon–Carbon Triple Bonds of Arylacetylenes for the Synthesis of Arylnitriles without a Metal Catalyst

Cleavage of the carbon–carbon triple bonds of alkynes was achieved, which led to the synthesis of arylnitriles under transition-metal-free conditions. A vast range of terminal alkyne substrates underwent this reaction to provide the corresponding nitriles in moderate to good yields with good functional group tolerance.
