We identified nitazoxanide (NTZ) as a moderate STAT3 pathway inhibitor through immunoblot analysis and a cell-based IL-6/JAK/STAT3 pathway activation assay. A series of thiazolide derivatives were designed and synthesized to further validate the thiazolide scaffold as STAT3 inhibitors. Eight out of 25 derivatives displayed potencies greater than that of NTZ, and their STAT3 pathway inhibitory activities were found to be significantly correlated with their antiproliferative activities in HeLa cells. Derivatives 15 and 24 were observed to be more potent than the positive control WP1066, which is under phase I clinical trials. Compared with NTZ, 15 also exhibited much improved in vivo pharmacokinetic parameters in rats and efficacies against proliferations in multiple cancer cell lines, indicating a broad-spectrum effect of these thiazolides as antitumor agents targeted on STAT3.

An efficient palladium-catalyzed chlorocarbonylation of aryl (pseudo)halides that gives access to a wide range of carboxylic acid derivatives has been developed. The use of butyryl chloride as a combined CO and Cl source eludes the need for toxic, gaseous carbon monoxide, thus facilitating the synthesis of high-value products from readily available aryl (pseudo)halides. The combination of palladium(0), Xantphos, and an amine base is essential to promote this broadly applicable catalytic reaction. Overall, this reaction provides access to a great variety of carbonyl-containing products through in situ transformation of the generated aroyl chloride. Combined experimental and computational studies support a reaction mechanism involving in situ generation of CO.
