Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) has become a promising therapeutic target for central nervous system diseases due to its more complex protein structure and biological functions. However, low brain penetration of reported HDAC6 inhibitors limits its clinical application in neurological disorders. Therefore, the benzazepine, a brain-penetrant rigid fragment, was utilized to design a series of selective HDAC6 inhibitors to improve brain bioavailability. Various synthetic strategies were applied to assemble the tetrahydro-benzazepine ring, and 22 compounds were synthesized. Among them, compound 5 showed low nanomolar potency and strong isozyme selectivity for the inhibition of HDAC6 (IC50 = 1.8 nM, 141-fold selectivity over HDAC1) with efficient binding patterns like coordination with the zinc ion and π-π stacking effect. Western blot results showed it could efficiently transport into SH-SY5Y cells and selectively enhance the acetylation level of α-tubulin with a moderate effect on Histone H3. Notably, pharmacokinetic studies demonstrated that compound 5 (brain/plasma ratio of 2.30) had an excellent ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier of C57 mice. In male rats with transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), compound 5 significantly reduced the cerebral infarction from 21.22% to 11.47% and alleviated neurobehavioral deficits in post-ischemic treatment, which provided a strong rationale for pursuing HDAC6-based therapies for ischemic stroke.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A systematic investigation of the reductive ring-expansion reaction of cyclic ketoximes fused to aromatic ringswith diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBALH) is described. This reaction regioselectively afforded a variety of five- to eight-membered bicyclic heterocycles or tricyclic heterocycles containing nitrogen neighboring an aromatic ring, including indoline, 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydrobenz[b]azocine, 3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b] [1,4]oxazine, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,4]thiazepine, 1,2,3,4,5,6- hexahydroazepino[3,2-b]-indole, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzothieno[2,3-b]azepine, 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzothieno[3,2-b]-azepine, 5,6-dihydrophenanthridine, and 5,6,11,12-tetrahydrodibenz[b, f]azocine. The reaction mechanism leading to the rearrangement was investigated on the basis of the restricted Becke three-parameter plus Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) density functional theory (DFT) with the 6-31G (d) basis set. It was found that the reaction proceeds through a three-centered transition state via a stepwise mechanism because the potential energy curve along the intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) had twomaxima (saddle points; TS1 and TS2) and the partial phenonium cation intermediate C. In addition to cyclic ketoximes fused to aromatic rings, the reactions of various cyclic and acyclic ketoximeswere examined to investigate preference of migrating group. It was found that themore electron-rich group migrated preferentially to give the corresponding secondary amines.
