Selective Mcl-1 inhibitors may overcome the drug resistance caused by current anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein inhibitors in tumors with Mcl-1 overexpression. Based on previously discovered compounds with a 3-phenylthiophene-2-sulfonamide core moiety, in this work, we have obtained new compounds with improved binding affinity and/or selectivity under the guidance of structure-based design. The most potent compounds achieved sub-micromolar binding affinities to Mcl-1 (Ki~ 0.4 μM) and good cytotoxicity (IC5015N-heteronuclear single-quantum coherence NMR spectra suggested that these compounds bound to the BH3-binding groove on Mcl-1. Several cellular assays revealed that FWJ-D4 as well as its precursor FWJ-D5 effectively induced caspase-dependent apoptosis, and their target engagement at Mcl-1 was confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation experiments. Treatment with FWJ-D5 at 50 mg/kg every 2 days on an RS4;11 xenograft mouse model for 22 days led to 75% reduction in tumor volume without body weight loss.

Utilizing the dramatic accelerating effect of 2-aminophenols, we developed a copper-catalyzed system for the selective synthesis of di- and triphenylamines. In addition, N- and O-arylation could be achieved in coupling reactions between 2-aminophenol and nitroaryl halides. A copper-catalyzed system for the selective synthesis of di- and triphenylamines has been developed. This new protocol provides a direct and efficient way to synthesize o-hydroxy-substituted di- and triphenylamines. Copyright
