Here, we report the discovery of a new class of NPBWR1 antagonists identified from a fragment-based screen. Compound 1 (cAMP IC50 = 250 μM; LE = 0.29) emerged as an initial hit. Further optimization of 1 by SAR-by-catalogue and chemical modification produced 21a (cAMP IC50 = 30 nM; LE = 0.39) with a 6700-fold increase in potency from fragment 1. Somewhat surprisingly, Schild analysis of compound 21a suggested that in vitro inhibition of NPW-mediated effects on upon cAMP accumulation were saturable, and that compound 21a dose-dependently increased [125I]-hNPW23 dissociation rate constants from NPBWR1 in kinetic binding studies. Collectively, these data are inconsistent with a classic surmountable, orthosteric mechanism of inhibition. The benzimidazole inhibitors reported herein may therefore represent a mechanistically differentiated class of compounds with which to form a better appreciation of the pharmacology and physiological roles of this central neuropeptide system.

A new solid acid catalyst, consisting of 12-phosphotungstic heteropoly acid (HPW) supported on graphene oxide/silica nanocomposite (GO@SiO2), has been developed via immobilizing HPW onto an amine-functionalized GO/SiO2 surface through coordination interaction (GO@SiO2-HPW). The GO@SiO2-HPW nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The prepared nanocomposite could be dispersed homogeneously in water and further used as a heterogeneous, reusable, and efficient catalyst for the synthesis of benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles by the reaction of 1,2-phenelynediamine or 2-aminothiophenol with different aldehydes.

A novel heterogeneous one-pot protocol is developed for tandem aerobic synthesis of benzimidazoles through dehydrogenative coupling of primary benzylic alcohols and aromatic diamines co-catalysed by Keplerate-type {Mo72V30} polyoxometalate and N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI). The catalytic system also works well for the synthesis of benzimidazoles using benzaldehydes, as commonly used starting materials, in the absence of NHPI. The high activity of the solid nanocluster provides standard conditions avoiding current limitations of oxidation methods including high catalyst loadings. The spectral results and leaching experiments revealed that the nanocapsule preserved its structural integrity after being reused in consecutive runs.

, p. 30 - 40 (2017/11/16)
Abstract: In this study, we developed methods for the one pot environmentally benign synthesis of benzimidazoles by cobalt ascorbic acid complex coated on TiO2 nanoparticles via aerobic photooxidative cyclization reactions. Easy work-up procedure, reusability of the catalyst and scalable to the multi-mole scale, which is valuable for an industrial process make these catalytic systems highly attractive. Also, the combination of photocatalytic and catalytic reactions presented here may help to develop a new strategy towards the development of photocatalysis-based organic synthesis.

An iron(II) bromide-catalyzed oxidative coupling of benzylamines with 2-amino/hydroxy/mercapto-anilines has been developed, allowing the synthesis of a diversity of substituted 1,3-benzazoles in good to excellent yields. This transformation is compatible with a wide range of functional groups. The method is practical, economical and employs molecular oxygen as an oxidant.

Both c-Met and VEGFR-2 are important targets for the treatment of cancers. In this study, a series of N-(2-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)quinazolin-4- amine derivatives were designed and identified as dual c-Met and VEGFR-2 inhibitors. Among these compounds bearing quinazoline and benzimidazole fragments, compound 7j exhibited the most potent inhibitory activity against c-Met and VEGFR-2 with IC50 of 0.05 μM and 0.02 μM, respectively. It also showed the highest anticancer activity against the tested cancer cell lines with IC50 of 1.5 μM against MCF-7 and 8.7 μM against Hep-G2. Docking simulation supported the initial pharmacophoric hypothesis and suggested a common mode of interaction at the ATP-binding site of c-Met and VEGFR-2, which demonstrates that compound 7j is a potential agent for cancer therapy deserving further researching.
