L-amino alcohol derivatives exhibited high antifungal activity, but the metabolic stability of human liver microsomes in vitro was poor, and the half-life of optimal compound 5 was less than 5 min. To improve the metabolic properties of the compounds, the scaffold hopping strategy was adopted and a series of antifungal compounds with a dihydrooxazole scaffold was designed and synthesized. Compounds A33-A38 substituted with 4-phenyl group on dihydrooxazole ring exhibited excellent antifungal activities against C. albicans, C. tropicalis and C. krusei, with MIC values in the range of 0.03–0.25 μg/mL. In addition, the metabolic stability of compounds A33 and A34 in human liver microsomes in vitro was improved significantly, with the half-life greater than 145 min and the half-life of 59.1 min, respectively. Moreover, pharmacokinetic studies in SD rats showed that A33 exhibited favourable pharmacokinetic properties, with a bioavailability of 77.69%, and half-life (intravenous administration) of 9.35 h, indicating that A33 is worthy of further study.

To discover broad spectrum antifungal agents, two strategies were applied, and a novel class of L-amino alcohol derivatives were designed and synthesized. 3-F substituted compounds 14i, 14n, 14s and 14v exhibited excellent antifungal activities with broad antifungal spectra against C. albicans and C. tropicalis, with MIC values in the range of 0.03–0.06 μg/mL, and against A. fumigatus and C. neoformans, with MIC values in the range of 1–2 μg/mL. Notably, Compounds 14i, 14n, 14s and 14v also displayed moderate activities against fluconazole-resistance strains 17# and CaR that were isolated from AIDS patients. Moreover, only compounds in the S-configuration showed antifungal activity. Preliminary mechanistic studies showed that the potent antifungal activity of compound 14v stemmed from inhibition of C. albicans CYP51. Compounds 14n and 14v were almost nontoxic to mammalian A549 cells, and their stability in human plasma was excellent.

A series of β-azole-phenylacetone derivatives with novel structures were designed and synthesized to combat the increasing incidence of susceptible fungal infections and drug-resistant fungal infections. The antifungal activity of the synthesized compounds was assessed against five susceptible strains and five fluconazole-resistant strains. Antifungal activity tests showed that most of the compounds exhibited excellent antifungal activities against five pathogenic strains with MIC values in the range of 0.03–1 μg/mL. Compounds with R1 = 3-F substituted and 15o and 15ae exhibited moderate antifungal activities against fluconazole-resistant strains 17# and CaR with MIC values in the range of 1–8 μg/mL. Compounds with R1 = H or 2-F (such as 15a, 15o, 15p) displayed moderate to good antifungal activity against fluconazole-resistant strains 632, 901 and 904 with MIC values in the range of 0.125–4 μg/mL. Notably, 15o and 15ae exhibited antifungal activity against five susceptible strains and five fluconazole-resistant strains. Preliminary mechanistic studies showed that the potent antifungal activity of compound 15ae stemmed from inhibition of C. albicans CYP51. Compounds 15o, 15z and 15ae were nearly nontoxic to mammalian A549 cells.

A significant proportion of pharmaceuticals are fluorinated and selecting the site of fluorine incorporation can be an important beneficial part a drug development process. Here we describe initial experiments aimed at the development of a general method of selecting optimum sites on pro-drug molecules for fluorination, so that metabolic stability may be improved. Several model biphenyl derivatives were transformed by the fungus Cunninghamella elegans and the bacterium Streptomyces griseus, both of which contain cytochromes P450 that mimic oxidation processes in vivo, so that the site of oxidation could be determined. Subsequently, fluorinated biphenyl derivatives were synthesised using appropriate Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions, positioning the fluorine atom at the pre-determined site of microbial oxidation; the fluorinated biphenyl derivatives were incubated with the microorganisms and the degree of oxidation assessed. Biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid was transformed completely to 4′-hydroxybiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid by C. elegans but, in contrast, the 4′-fluoro-analogue remained untransformed exemplifying the microbial oxidation-chemical fluorination concept. 2′-Fluoro- and 3′-fluoro-biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid were also transformed, but more slowly than the non-fluorinated biphenyl carboxylic acid derivative. Thus, it is possible to design compounds in an iterative fashion with a longer metabolic half-life by identifying the sites that are most easily oxidised by in vitro methods and subsequent fluorination without recourse to extensive animal studies.

The E2 protein is required for the replication of human papillomaviruses (HPVs), which are responsible for anogenital warts and cervical carcinomas. Using an NMR-based screen we tested compounds for binding to the DNA-binding domain of the HPV-E2 protein. Three classes of compounds were identified which bound to two distinct sites on the protein. Biphenyl and biphenyl ether compounds containing a carboxylic acid bind to a site near the DNA recognition helix and inhibit the binding of E2 to DNA. Benzophenone- containing compounds which lack a carboxylic acid group bind to the β- barrel formed by the dimer interface and exhibit negligible effects on the binding of E2 to DNA. Structure-activity relationships from the biphenyl and biphenyl ether compounds were combined to produce a compound [5-(3'- (3'',5''-dichlorophenoxy)-phenyl)-2,4-pentadienoic acid] with an IC50 value of approximately 10 μM. This compound represents a useful lead for the development of antiviral agents that interfere with HPV replication and further illustrates the usefulness of the SAR by NMR method in the drug discovery process.
