Benzoic hydroxamate-based iron complexes as model compounds for humic substances: Synthesis, characterization and algal growth experiments

A series of monomeric and dimeric FeIII complexes bearing benzoic hydroxamates as O,O-chelates has been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), cyclic voltammetry, EPR spectroscopy and for some examples by X-ray diffraction analysis. The stability of the synthesized complexes in pure water and seawater was monitored over 24 h by means of UV-Vis spectrometry. The ability to release iron from the synthesized model complexes has been investigated with algae growth experiments.

HISTONE LYSINE DEMETHYLASE INHIBITORS

The invention provides a compound which is an iV-oxalylglycine derivative of formula (I): a hydroxamic acid derivative of formula (II): or a heteroaryl derivative of fomula (III): wherein n; Z1; Z2; Y1; Y2; A; p; X1; X2; m; R4; B; R5; R6; R7; R8; R9; X3; R10; R11 and R12 are as defined herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. These compounds are inhibitors of the human 2-oxoglutarate-dependant JMJD2 subfamily of histone demethylases, in particular JMJD2E. Such inhibitors are useful in changing the epigenetic state of cells resulting in the inhibition / activation of chromatin remodelling, multiple gene activation / deactivation, and in treating cancer and other conditions characterised by undesirable cellular proliferation, and psychiatric disorders including depression.

Inhibitor scaffolds for 2-oxoglutarate-dependent histone lysine demethylases

The dynamic methylation of histone lysyl residues plays an important role in biology by regulating transcription, maintaining genomic integrity, and by contributing to epigenetic effects. Here we describe a variety of inhibitor scaffolds that inhibit the human 2-oxoglutarate-dependent JMJD2 subfamily of histone demethylases. Combined with structural data, these chemical starting points will be useful to generate small-molecule probes to analyze the physiological roles of these enzymes in epigenetic signaling.

Inhibitors of the FEZ-1 metallo-β-lactamase

Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) catalyze the hydrolysis of β-lactams including penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems. Starting from benzohydroxamic acid (1) structure-activity studies led to the identification of selective inhibitors of the FEZ-1 MBL, e.g., 2,5-substituted benzophenone hydroxamic acid 17 has a Ki of 6.1 ± 0.7 μM against the FEZ-1 MBL but does not significantly inhibit the IMP-1, BcII, CphA or L1 MBLs.

Synthesis of hydroxy- and amino-substituted benzohydroxamic acids: Inhibition of ribonucleotide reductase and antitumor activity

Benzohydroxamic acids inhibit mammalian ribonucleotide reductase and exhibit antineoplastic activity in L1210 leukemic mice. Five new hydroxy- and amino-substituted benzohydroxamic acids (3,4- and 3,5-OH,3,4-NH2, 2,3,4-, and 3,4,5-OH) were prepared and tested along with 12 previously reported benzohydroxamic acids (BHA) for enzyme inhibition and antitumor activity. The most potent enzyme inhibitor in this series was 2,3,4-OH-BHA (ID50=3.5 μM), which is 140 times more potent than hydroxyurea, but its toxicity limited the antitumor activity to a 30% increase in life span of L1210 bearing mice at 125 (mg/kg) day ip for 8 days. The most effective antitumor agent in this series was 3,4-OH-BHA which prolonged the life span of L1210 bearing mice 103% at 600 (mg/kg)/day ip for 8 days.
