In this study, a series of mono- and diallylphenol derivative were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as potential human 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-hLOX-1) inhibitors. Radical scavenging potency of the synthetic allylphenol derivatives was assessed and the results were in accordance with lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibition potency. It was found that the electronic natures of allyl moiety and para substituents play the main role in radical scavenging activity and subsequently LOX inhibition potency of the synthetic inhibitors. Among the synthetic compounds, 2,6-diallyl-4-(hexyloxy)phenol (42) and 2,6-diallyl-4-aminophenol (47) showed the best results for LOX inhibition (IC50 = 0.88 and 0.80 μM, respectively).

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) present high prevalence rates in the current world. It is estimated that approximately one-third of the global deaths are related to CVDs, and thus there is still a need for novel drugs to treat these disorders. We serendipitously discovered that LINS01005 (5a) is a potent vasodilating agent in rat aorta, and therefore a set of analogues were evaluated for the vasodilating potency in Wistar and SHR rat thoracic aorta precontracted with norepinephrine, with endothelium intact (E+) or denuded (E–) aortic rings. Compounds 5a and 5b were the most potent, showing submicromolar potency for endothelium intact vessels (EC50 853 and 941 nM, respectively) and micromolar values for E– vessels (EC50 2.4 and 7.1 μM, respectively). These compounds were indeed significantly more potent vasodilating agents in SHR-derived aortic rings (p 50 2.4 nM (E+) 9.0 nM (E–)] and 5b [EC50 20 nM (E+) 2.1 μM (E–)]. SAR analysis though PCA and HCA were performed, suggesting that N-phenylpiperazine is essential to the activity, while increasing volume in the substituted aromatic moiety is detrimental to the potency. This is the first report of the vasodilating properties of such compounds, and studies regarding the mechanism of action are in progress in our group.

Abstract: Histamine and dopamine neuronal pathways display interesting overlapping in the CNS, especially in the limbic areas, making them very attractive to designing drugs with synergistic and/or additive effects. The roles of these systems to treat schizophrenia, drug addiction, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, among others are widely known. The LINS01 compounds were previously reported as histamine H3 receptor (H3R) antagonists and some of them are under evaluation in rodent memory models. Considering their pharmacological potential and similarities to literature dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) and dopamine D3 receptor (D3R) ligands, this work aimed to evaluate these compounds as ligands these receptors by using [3H]spiperone displacement assays. A set of 11 compounds containing the dihydrobenzofuranyl-piperazine core with substituents at 5-position of dihydrobenzofuran ring and at the piperazine nitrogen was examined. The compounds showed low to moderate affinities at both, D2R and D3R. N-Phenyl compounds LINS01005 (1d), LINS01011 (1h), LINS01012 (1i) and LINS01016 (1k) showed the highest affinities in the set to D3R (Ki 0.3–1.5 μM), indicating that N-phenylpiperazine moiety increases the affinity to this receptor subtype with some selectivity, since they showed lower affinities to D2R (Ki 1.3–5.5 μM). With the LINS01 compounds showing moderate binding affinity, new lead structures for optimization with regards to combined H3R and D2R/D3R-ligands are provided. Graphic abstract: Histamine and dopamine neuronal pathways display interesting overlapping in the CNS, and thus LINS01 compounds previously reported as histamine H3 receptor antagonists were evaluated as dopamine D2R and D3R ligands. The compounds showed micromolar affinities to both receptors[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

The chromane nucleus is common to a plenum of bioactive small molecules where it is frequently oxidized at position 3. Motivated by the importance of this position in conferring efficacy, and the prominence of bioisosterism in drug discovery, an iodine(I)/iodine(III) catalysis strategy to access enantioenriched 3-fluorochromanes is disclosed (up to 7:93 e.r.). In situ generation of ArIF2 enables the direct fluorocyclization of allyl phenyl ethers to generate novel scaffolds that manifest the stereoelectronic gauche effect. Mechanistic interrogation using deuterated probes confirms a stereospecific process consistent with a type IIinv pathway.

Histamine is a transmitter that activates the four receptors H1R to H4R. The H3R is found in the nervous system as an autoreceptor and heteroreceptor, and controls the release of neurotransmitters, making it a potential drug target for neuropsychiatric conditions. We have previously reported that the 1-(2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl)methylpiperazines (LINS01 compounds) have the selectivity for the H3R over the H4R. Here, we describe their pharmacological properties at the human H1R and H2R in parallel with the H3R, thus providing a full analysis of these compounds as histamine receptor ligands through reporter gene assays. Eight of the nine LINS01 compounds inhibited H3R-induced histamine responses, but no inhibition of H2R-induced responses was seen. Three compounds were weakly able to inhibit H1R-induced responses. No agonist responses were seen to any of the compounds at any receptor. SAR analysis shows that the N-methyl group improves H3R affinity while the N-phenyl group is detrimental. The methoxy derivative, LINS01009, had the highest affinity.

A green and cheap protocol for the synthesis of dihydrobenzofurans via an organocatalytic oxidation of o -allylphenols is presented. The use of 2,2,2-trifluoroacetophenone and H 2 O 2 as the oxidation system, leads to a highly useful synthetic method, where a variety of substituted o -allylphenols were cyclized in high yields..

Despite more than three decades of intense effort, no anti-Ras therapies have reached clinical application. Contributing to this failure has been an underestimation of Ras complexity and a dearth of structural information. In this regard, recent studies have revealed the highly dynamic character of the Ras surface and the existence of transient pockets suitable for small-molecule binding, opening up new possibilities for the development of Ras modulators. Herein, a novel Ras inhibitor (compound 12) is described that selectively impairs mutated Ras activity in a reversible manner without significantly affecting wild-type Ras, reduces the Ras–guanosine triphosphate (GTP) levels, inhibits the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, and exhibits remarkable cytotoxic activity in Ras-driven cellular models. The use of molecular dynamics simulations and NMR spectroscopy experiments has enabled the molecular bases responsible for the interactions between compound 12 and Ras protein to be explored. The new Ras inhibitor binds partially to the GTP-binding region and extends into the adjacent hydrophobic pocket delimited by switch II. Hence, Ras inhibitor 12 could represent a new compound for the development of more efficacious drugs to target Ras-driven cancers; a currently unmet clinical need.

Catalyst-free Clasien rearrangement of allyl phenyl ethers were investigated in near-critical water. The effects on the reaction in near-critical water and conventional conditions were compared. The results demonstrate that near-critical water could greatly accelerate the Claisen rearrangement of allyl phenyl ethers. This process is simple, fast, efficient and environmentally benign.
THIOSEMICARBAZONES INHIBITORS OF LYSOPHOSPHATIDIC ACID ACYLTRANSFERASE AND USES THEREOF

Page/Page column 17, (2015/11/17)
Lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase-beta (LPAAT-β) catalyzes the production of phosphatidic acid (PA) from lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). The lipid cofactor PA contributes to the activation of c-Raf, BRAF, mTOR and PKC-ζ. LPAAT-β expression is a prognostic factor in gynecologic malignancies and is being investigated as a therapeutic target in a variety of tumor types. A class of thiosemicarbazones was identified as inhibitors of LPAAT-β from a screen of a library of small molecules. A focused library of thiosemicarbazones derivatives was prepared and led to the development of compounds which potently inhibit LPAAT-β and inhibit the growth of MiaPaCa2 human pancreatic cancer cells.
