Deciphering Structure–Activity Relationships in a Series of 2,2-Dimethylchromans Acting as Inhibitors of Insulin Release and Smooth Muscle Relaxants
Pirotte, Bernard,Florence, Xavier,Goffin, Eric,Lebrun, Philippe
, p. 1810 - 1817 (2017)
4,6-Disubstituted 2,2-dimethylchromans are reported as pharmacologically active compounds that mainly target the ATP-sensitive potassium channels. The present study is an attempt to characterize the impact of the nature of substituents introduced at the 4- and 6-positions of 2,2-dimethylchromans on their capacities to inhibit insulin release from pancreatic β-cells or to relax vascular smooth muscle cells, both biological responses that are supposed to reflect interaction with specific ion channels. From the core structure 4-amino-2,2-dimethylchroman, a progressive increase in the steric hindrance of the chemical functionalities introduced at the 4-position (amino, formamido, acetamido, arylureido/thioureido) and at the 6-position (amino, formamido, acetamido, alkoxycarbonylamino) led to a progressive magnification of the inhibitory effect on the insulin release process and, to a lesser extent, of the vasorelaxant activity. Moreover, the dextrorotatory enantiomer of 2,2-dimethylchroman compound 29 was more potent than its levorotatory counterpart for inhibiting the insulin secretory process. Additional pharmacological investigations suggested, however, that the myorelaxant activity of 11 and 15 resulted from a direct Ca2+ entry blockade.

Alkyl-substituted phenolic pyrazoles such as 4-methyl-2-[5-(n-octyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]phenol (L2H) are shown to function as Cu-extractants, having similar strength and selectivity over Fe(iii) to 5-nonylsalicylaldoxime which is a component of the commercially used ACORGA solvent extraction reagents. Substitution in the phenol ring of the new extractants has a major effect on their strength, e.g. 2-nitro-4-methyl-6-[5-(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]phenol (L4H) which has a nitro group ortho to the phenolic hydroxyl group unit and has an extraction distribution coefficient for Cu nearly three orders of magnitude higher than its unsubstituted analogue 4-methyl-6-[5-(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]phenol (L8H). X-ray structure determinations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations confirm that inter-ligand hydrogen bonding between the pyrazole NH group and the phenolate oxygen atom stabilise the Cu-complexes, giving pseudomacrocyclic structures. Electron-accepting groups ortho to the phenol oxygen atoms buttress the inter-ligand H-bonding, enhancing extractant strength but the effectiveness of this is very dependent on steric factors. The correlation between the calculated energies of formation of copper complexes in the gas phase and the observed strength of comparably substituted reagents in solvent extraction experiments is remarkable. Analysis of the energies of formation suggests that big differences in strength of extractants arise principally from a combination of the effects of the substituents on the ease of deprotonation of the proligands and, for the ortho-substituted ligands, their propensity to buttress inter-ligand hydrogen bonding.

In this study, a series of novel molecules containing chromeno [3,4-d] imidazol-4(1H)-one was synthesized and their biological activities were evaluated. Among them, compound 35 showed a dramatic anticancer activity against HCT116 and MCF-7, and the flow cytometry assays demonstrated that it could arrest G0/G1 cell-cycle and induce apoptosis of SW620 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Besides, it also blocked MCF-7 cancer cell migration. Moreover, it inhibited tumor growth in HCT116 subcutaneously implanted xenografted mice. Taken together, compound 35 may be a promising candidate for anti-cancer agent as well as metastatic one.

A series of 2-arylbenzo[b]furan–appended 4-aminoquinazoline hybrids were prepared and evaluated for cytotoxicity in vitro against the human lung cancer (A549), colorectal adenocarcinoma (Caco-2), hepatocellular carcinoma (C3A) and cervical cancer (HeLa) cell lines. Compounds 10d and 10j exhibited significant cytotoxicity against the C3A and Caco-2 cell lines and induced apoptosis in these cell lines. Likewise, compounds 10d and 10e exhibited significant inhibitory activity towards epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase phosphorylation (IC50 values of 29.3 nM and 31.1 nM, respectively) against Gefitinib (IC50 = 33.1 nM). Molecular docking of compounds 10 into EGFR-TK active site suggests that they bind to the region of EGFR like Gefitinib does. (Figure presented.).

Herein, we report a facile method for the synthesis of Ni-NiO heterojunction nanoparticles, which we utilized for the nuclear halogenation reaction of phenol and substituted phenols usingN-bromosuccinimide (NBS). A remarkablepara-selectivity was achieved for the halogenated products under semi-aqueous conditions. Interestingly, blocking of thepara-position of phenol offeredortho-selective halogenation. In addition, the Ni-NiO nanoparticles catalyzed the oxidative esterification of carbonyl compounds with alcohol, diol or dithiol in the presence of a catalytic amount of NBS. It was observed that the aromatic carbonyls substituted with an electron-donating group favoured nuclear halogenation, whereas an electron-withdrawing group substitution in carbonyl compounds facilitated the oxidation reaction. In addition, the catalyst was magnetically separated and recycled 10 times. The tuned electronic structure at the Ni-NiO heterojunction controlled selectivity and activity as no suchpara-selectivity was observed with commercially available NiO or Ni nanoparticles.

Series of novel N-benzyl derivatives of 6-aminoflavone (9a–n) were synthesized and evaluated for anticancer and topoisomerase II enzyme inhibition activity. All the synthesized compounds were screened for in vitro anticancer activity against human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) and human lung cancer cell line (A-549). Among the synthesized compounds, 9f and 9g were found to be the most potent anticancer agents against human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) with IC50 values of 9.35?μM and 9.58?μM, respectively. Compounds 9b, 9c and 9n exhibited promising anticancer activity against human lung cancer cell line (A-549) with 43.71%, 46.48% and 44.26% inhibition at the highest concentration of 10?μM, respectively. Compounds 9c, 9f and 9g have ability to inhibit the topoisomerase II enzyme. Compound 9f showed most potent topoisomerase II enzyme inhibition activity with IC50 value of 12.11?μM. Further, these compounds have a high potential to be developed as a promising topoisomerase II inhibitors.

Cycloaddition reaction of 4-chloro-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carbaldehydes (3a-g) and 4-chloro-2H-chromene-3-carbaldehydes (7a-h) with activated alkynes (4a-b) provided the 2-oxo-2H-chromenyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates (5a-n) and 2H-chromenyl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates (8a-p). All the prepared compounds were screened for anti-inflammatory activity. In vitro anti-inflammatory activity data demonstrated that the compounds 5g, 5i, 5k-l and 8f are effective among the tested compounds against TNF-α (1.108 ± 0.002, 0.423 ± 0.022, 0.047 ± 0.001, 0.070 ± 0.002 and 0.142 ± 0.001 μM) in comparison with standard compound Prednisolone (0.033 ± 0.002 μM). Based on in vitro results, three compounds (5i, 5k and 8f) have been selected for in vivo experiments and these compounds are identified as better compounds with respect to anti-inflammatory activity in LPS induced mice model. Compound 5i was identified as potent and showed significant reduction in TNF-α and IL-6.

In this work, an unexpected promoting effect of by-product thioether was observed, leading to a mild and regioselective bromination of phenols with TMSBr. This method can tolerate a series of functional groups such as the reactive methoxyl, amide, fluoro, chloro, bromo, aldehyde, ketone and ester groups, and has the potential to recycle the by-product thioether and isolate the desired product under column chromatography-free conditions. Mechanism studies revealed that O–H···S hydrogen bond may be formed between phenol and by-product thioether. Possibly owing to the steric hindrance effect from by-product thioether, the electrophilic bromination at para-position of phenols is much favorable.
