, p. 2872 - 2875 (2019)
A rapid and facile synthesis of benzannulated 6,5-spiroketals from vinyl 1,1-diacylcyclopropanes is reported. The method utilizes mild reaction conditions with good to excellent yields and high diastereoselectivity. This methodology was then used to construct the core of berkelic acid.

Paragraph 0097; 0114, (2021/02/19)
Disclosed herein are analogues of itraconazole that are potent hedgehog signaling pathway inhibitors. The compounds are expected to be useful in the treatment of cell proliferation disorders such as cancer, particularly cancers that are dependent upon the hedgehog signaling pathway such as basal cell carcinoma and medulloblastoma.

The inhibition of glutaminase 1 (GLS1) represents a potential treatment of malignant tumors. Structural analysis led to the design of a novel series of macrocyclic GLS1 allosteric inhibitors. Through extensive structure-activity relationship studies, a promising candidate molecule 13b (LL202) was identified with robust GLS1 inhibitory activity (IC50 = 6 nM) and high GLS1 binding affinity (SPR, Kd = 24 nM; ITC, Kd = 37 nM). The X-ray crystal structure of the 13b-GLS1 complex was resolved, revealing a unique binding mode and providing a novel structural scaffold for GLS1 allosteric inhibitors. Importantly, 13b clearly adjusted the cellular metabolites and induced an increase in the ROS level by blocking glutamine metabolism. Furthermore, 13b exhibited a similar in vivo antitumor activity as CB839. This study adds to the growing body of evidence that macrocyclization provides an alternative and complementary approach for the design of small-molecule inhibitors, with the potential to improve the binding affinity to the targets.

We conducted a structure-activity relationship study to explore simplified analogues of the itraconazole (ITZ) scaffold for their ability to inhibit the hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway. These analogues were based on exploring the effects of chemical modifications to the linker and triazolone/side chain region of ITZ. Analogue 11 was identified as the most potent compound in our first generation, with an IC50 value of 81 nM in a murine Hh-dependent basal cell carcinoma. Metabolic identification studies led us to identify truncated piperazine (26) as the major metabolite in human liver microsomes (HLMs) and an improved Hh pathway inhibitor (IC50 = 22 nM). This work verifies that continued truncation of the ITZ scaffold is a practical method to maintain potent anti-Hh activity while also reducing the molecular weight for the ITZ scaffold and achieving improved pharmacokinetic properties.

Sixteen-membered macrocycle 3 and 16+14 bicyclic compound 4, incorporating a terminal primary hydroxyl group in the peptide sequence, have been designed and synthesized. The syntheses feature the use of an efficient cycloetherification based on an intramolecular S(N)Ar reaction for the formation of biaryl ether bonds. Cyclization of linear tetrapeptide 30, prepared via a convergent [2+2] segment coupling between 26 and 29, gave macrocycle 31 (P configuration) as a single isolable atropisomer. Removal of the Boc protecting group afforded the modified carboxyl binding pocket of vancomycin 3. A sequential 2-fold intramolecular S(N)Ar reaction has been used to construct the model bicyclic system (i.e. 4) of the D-O-E-F-O-G ring of teicoplanin. Cyclization conditions (CsF, DMF, room temperature) are sufficiently mild that the configuration of the racemization-prone arylglycine residue was not affected. Chiral building blocks such as D-(1R)-[2-[(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]1-[3-(allyloxy)phenyl]ethyl]am ine 16, and L-(S)-N-Boc-[3-(isopropyloxy)phenyl]glycine (32) were synthesized employing Evans' asymmetric azidation method, while L-(S)-4-fluoro-3-nitrophenylalanine methyl ester 23 was prepared using Schollkopf's bislactim ether as chiral glycine template. Compound 3 showed interesting conformational properties compared to vancomycin and its binding with Ac-D-Ala was studied by NMR titration experiments. A dissociation constant (Kd) = 5 x 10-4) was calculated by a curve fitting method. Compound 4 is currently the most advanced synthetic intermediate toward the total synthesis of teicoplanin.
