We report a new electrochemical supporting-electrolyte-free method for synthesizing ureas, carbamates, and thiocarbamates via the oxidation of oxamic acids. This simple, practical, and phosgene-free route includes the generation of an isocyanate intermediate in situ via anodic decarboxylation of an oxamic acid in the presence of an organic base, followed by the one-pot addition of suitable nucleophiles to afford the corresponding ureas, carbamates, and thiocarbamates. This procedure is applicable to different amines, alcohols, and thiols. Furthermore, when single-pass continuous electrochemical flow conditions were used and this reaction was run in a carbon graphite Cgr/Cgr flow cell, urea compounds could be obtained in high yields within a residence time of 6 min, unlocking access to substrates that were inaccessible under batch conditions while being easily scalable.

Parasitic roundworms (nematodes) are significant pathogens of humans and animals and cause substantive socioeconomic losses due to the diseases that they cause. The control of nematodes in livestock animals relies heavily on the use of anthelmintic drugs. However, their extensive use has led to a widespread problem of drug resistance in these worms. Thus, the discovery and development of novel chemical entities for the treatment of parasitic worms of humans and animals is needed. Herein, we describe our medicinal chemistry optimization efforts of a phenotypic hit against Haemonchus contortus based on a pyrrolidine-oxadiazole scaffold. This led to the identification of compounds with potent inhibitory activities (IC50 = 0.78–22.4 μM) on the motility and development of parasitic stages of H. contortus, and which were found to be highly selective in a mammalian cell counter-screen. These compounds could be used as suitable chemical tools for drug target identification or as lead compounds for further optimization.

The present study reports the organocatalytic enantioselective allylic amination of Morita–Baylis–Hillman carbamates efficiently catalyzed by a chiral amine in the presence of a Br?nsted acid. Chiral allylic amines were produced in high yields (up to 98 %) and enantioselectivities (up to 97 % ee). This method provides an efficient and easily performed route to prepare α-methylene-β-lactams, and other optically active β-lactams, such as the cholesterol-lowering drug Ezetimibe.

A number of 1,2-benzisothiazol-3-one derivatives were prepared through structural modification of the original compound from high-throughput screening. Some analogues (e.g., 6b, 6r, 6s and 6w) were identified as novel and potent caspase inhibitors with IC50 of nanomolar. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies for caspase-3 inhibition were evaluated in vitro. Molecular modeling studies provided further insight into the interaction of this class of compounds with activated caspase-3. The present small molecule caspase-3 inhibitor with novel structures different from structures of known caspase inhibitors revealed a new direction for therapeutic strategies directed against diseases involving abnormally up-regulated apoptosis.
A simple and efficient synthesis of diaryl ureas with reduction of the intermediate isocyanate by triethylamine
Zhou, Shuguang,Yao, Ting,Yi, Jicheng,Li, Dashuai,Xiong, Jing
, p. 315 - 319 (2013/07/27)
Thirty symmetrical diaryl urea derivatives were synthesised in moderate to excellent yields from arylamine and triphosgene with triethylamine as a reducing agent for the intermediate, isocyanate. It was significant that part of the products could be collected in almost quantitative yield without column chromatography. The procedure under mild reaction conditions was tolerant of a wide range of functional groups. The structures of the compounds were determined by NMR, MS and X-ray crystallographic analyses.

Specific puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase (PSA) inhibitors with a 3-(halogenated phenyl)-2,4(1H,3H)-quinazolinedione skeleton were prepared and their structure-activity relationships were investigated. The nature (F, Cl or Br), number and position(s) of the halogen atom(s) introduced into the 3-phenyl group were concluded to be critical determinants of the inhibitory activity.

Herein, we report a urea derived directing group for mild and highly selective oxidative C-H bond olefination. Subsequent intramolecular Michael addition affords dihydroquinazolinones in good yields. The N-O bond of the urea substrate exhibits superior oxidative behaviour compared to a variety of other external oxidants. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2011.

Amyloid β (Aβ), a key molecule in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), is derived from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by sequential proteolysis via β- and γ-secretases. Because of their role in generation of Aβ, these enzymes have emerged as important therapeutic targets for AD. In the case of γ-secretase, progress has been made towards designing potent inhibitors with suitable pharmacological profiles. Direct γ-secretase inhibitors are being evaluated in clinical trials and new strategies are being explored to block γ-secretase activity indirectly as well. In this regard, we have previously reported an indirect regulation of γ-secretase through antagonism of CXCR2, a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR). We demonstrated that N-(2-hydroxy-4-nitrophenyl)-N′-(2-bromophenyl)urea (SB225002), a selective inhibitor of CXCR2 also plays a role in an indirect inhibition of γ-secretase. Furthermore, we reported a ～5-fold difference in the selective inhibition of APP versus Notch processing via γ-secretase following treatment with SB225002. Herein we describe the synthesis and optimization of SB225002. By determination of the structure-activity relationship (SAR), we derived small molecules that inhibit Aβ40 production with IC50 values in the sub-micromolar range in a cell-based assay and also validated the potential of CXCR2 as a new target for therapeutic intervention in AD.
Carbonylation of doubly lithiated N′-aryl-N,N-dimethylureas: A novel approach to isatins via intramolecular trapping of acyllithiums
Smith, Keith,El-Hiti, Gamal A.,Hawes, Anthony C.
, p. 2047 - 2052 (2007/10/03)
Lithiation of N′-(2-bromoaryl)-N,N-dimethylureas with methyllithium and tert-butyllithium under nitrogen in anhydrous THF at 0°C gave doubly lithiated arylurea derivatives, which react with carbon monoxide at 0°C to give isatins in good yields. The scope of the reaction has been demonstrated by application to the synthesis of isatin itself and four substituted isatins beating alkyl, chloro or fluoro groups.
