As a continuation of our previous work, a series of new phenyl acrylamide derivatives (4Aa-g, 4Ba-t, 5 and 6a-c) were designed and synthesized as non-nucleoside anti-HBV agents. Among them, compound 4Bs could potently inhibit HBV DNA replication in wild-type and lamivudine (3TC)/entecavir resistant HBV mutant strains with IC50 values of 0.19 and 0.18 μM, respectively. Notably, the selective index value of 4Bs was above 526, indicating the favorable safety profile. Interestingly, unlike nucleoside analogue 3TC, 4Bs could significantly inhibit 3.5 kb pgRNA expression. Molecular docking study revealed that 4Bs could fit well into the dimer-dimer interface of HBV core protein by hydrophobic, π–π and H-bond interactions. Considering the potent anti-HBV activity, low toxicity and diverse anti-HBV mechanism from that of nucleoside anti-HBV agent 3TC, compound 4Bs might be a promising lead to develop novel non-nucleoside anti-HBV therapeutic agents, and warranted further investigation.

An efficient palladium-catalyzed ortho-alkoxylation of N-benzoyl α-amino acid derivatives at room temperature has been explored. This novel transformation, using amino acids as directing groups, Pd(OAc)2 as catalyst, alcohols as the alkoxylation reagents, and PhI(OAc)2 as the oxidant, showed wide generality, good functional tolerance, and high monoselectivity and regioselectivity.

N-aromatic acyl-amino acid conjugates possess a colon-targeted property, implying that such conjugates are stable and are not absorbable until reaching the large intestine in which they are microbially converted (hydrolysed) to the parent drugs that are therapeutically active. To investigate the structural effect of N-aromatic acyl-amino acid conjugates on the large intestinal deconjugation, the hydrolysis of various N-aromatic acyl-amino acid conjugates was examined in the cecal contents. On incubation of conjugates with glycine,d or/andl forms of alanine or phenylalanine in the cecal contents, the conjugates withd amino acids were not hydrolysed. The other conjugates are susceptible to the hydrolysis, the rates of which decreased as the size of the substituent on the 2-position of the amino acids increased. The conjugates with alkyl analogs (2-4 carbons) of glycine and taurine were resistant to the hydrolysis, while taurine- and glycine-conjugates were hydrolysed effectively. The hydrolysis of N-aromatic acyl-glycine conjugates was enhanced by para-substitution of electron withdrawing groups on the aromatic acyl moiety and vice versa for electron-donating groups. While a methyl, methoxy or chloro group on the ortho-position retarded the hydrolysis, a hydroxyl group on the position accelerated it. Our data may provide useful information for the design of a colon-specific prodrug with controlled conversion rate in the large intestine.
