Convenient synthesis and useful application of a series of Josiphos-type binaphane ligands were described. The iridium complexes of these chiral diphosphines displayed excellent enantioselectivity and good reactivity in the asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging 1-aryl-substituted dihydroisoquinoline substrates (full conversions, up to >99% ee, 4000 TON). The use of 40% HBr (aqueous solution) as an additive dramatically improved the asymmetric induction of these catalysts. This transformation provided a highly efficient and enantioselective access to chiral 1-aryl-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines, which were of great importance and common in natural products and biologically active molecules.

Drug efflux pumps confer multidrug resistance to dangerous bacterial pathogens which makes these proteins promising drug targets. Herein, we present initial chemical optimization and structure-activity relationship (SAR) data around a previously described efflux pump inhibitor, nordihydroguaretic acid (NDGA). Four series of novel NDGA analogues that target Escherichia coli AcrB were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their ability to potentiate the activity of antibiotics, to inhibit AcrB-mediated substrate efflux and reduce off-target activity. Nine novel structures were identified that increased the efficacy of a panel of antibiotics, inhibited drug efflux and reduced permeabilization of the bacterial outer and inner membranes. Among them, WA7, WB11 and WD6 possessing broad-spectrum antimicrobial sensitization activity were identified as NDGA analogues with favorable properties as potential AcrB inhibitors, demonstrating moderate improvement in potency as compared to NDGA. In particular, WD6 was the most broadly active analogue improving the activity of all four classes of antibacterials tested.

A convenient and general asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of a wide array of 1-aryl-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline derivatives using a [RuIICl(η6-benzene)TsDPEN] complex in combination with a 5:2 HCOOH-Et3N azeotropic mixture as a hydrogen source was developed. Under mild reaction conditions, the described catalytic transformation secured a practical synthetic access to the corresponding valuable chiral 1-aryltetrahydroisoquinoline units with high atom economy, a broad substrate scope, high isolated yields (up to 97%) and good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). It was found that the stereochemical outcome of the reaction was strongly influenced by both the structure of the catalyst and the substituents present on the substrate. The synthetic utility of the present protocol has been demonstrated through the asymmetric synthesis of several biologically important alkaloids including the antiepileptic drug agent 1c, as well as (-)-nor-cryptostyline alkaloids I and II.

A highly dispersed nanopalladium catalyst supported on mesocellular foam (MCF), was successfully used in the heterogeneous catalysis of aminocarbonylation reactions. During the preliminary evaluation of this catalyst it was discovered that the supported palladium nanoparticles exhibited a "release and catch" effect, meaning that a minor amount of the heterogeneous palladium became soluble and catalyzed the reaction, after which it re-deposited onto the support. It's catchy! An efficient palladium-catalyzed protocol for the aminocarbonylation of aryl iodides is reported in which the palladium immobilized on the amino-functionalized mesocellular foam (MCF) was found to operate through a "release and catch" mechanism (see scheme). A very low content of palladium was found in solution upon completion of the reaction and a variety of different aryl iodides were converted to the corresponding amides under mild conditions.

Late-stage malignant melanoma is a cancer that is refractory to current chemotherapeutic treatments. The average survival time for patients with such a diagnosis is 6 months. In general, the vast majority of anticancer drugs operate through induction of cell cycle arrest and cell death in either the DNA synthesis (S) or mitosis (M) phase of the cell cycle. Unfortunately, the same mechanisms that melanocytes possess to protect cells from DNA damage often confer resistance to drugs that derive their toxicity from S or M phase arrest. Described herein is the synthesis of a combinatorial library of potential proapoptotic agents and the subsequent identification of a class of small molecules (triphenylmethylamides, TPMAs) that arrest the growth of melanoma cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Several of these TPMAs are quite potent inducers of apoptotic death in melanoma cell lines (IC50 ～ 0.5 μM), and importantly, some TPMAs are comparatively nontoxic to normal cells isolated from the bone marrow of healthy donors. Furthermore, the TPMAs were found to dramatically reduce the level of active nuclear factor κ-B (NFκB) in the cell; NFκB is known to be constitutively active in melanoma, and this activity is critical for the proliferation of melanoma cells and their evasion of apoptosis. Compounds that reduce the level of NFκB and arrest cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle can provide insights into the biology of melanoma and may be effective antimelanoma agents.
