Development of novel phenoxyalkylpiperidines as high-affinity Sigma-1 (σ1) receptor ligands with potent anti-amnesic effect

The sigma-1 (σ1) receptor plays a significant role in many normal physiological functions and pathological disease states, and as such represents an attractive therapeutic target for both agonists and antagonists. Here, we describe a novel series of phenoxyalkylpiperidines based on the lead compound 1-[ω-(4-chlorophenoxy)ethyl]-4-methylpiperidine (1a) in which the degree of methylation at the carbon atoms alpha to the piperidine nitrogen was systematically varied. The affinity at σ1 and σ2 receptors and at Δ8-Δ7 sterol isomerase (SI) ranged from subnanomolar to micromolar Ki values. While the highest-affinity was displayed at the σ1, the increase of the degree of methylation in the piperidine ring progressively decreased the affinity. The subnanomolar affinity 1a and 1-[ω-(4-methoxyphenoxy)ethyl]-4-methylpiperidine (1b) displayed potent anti-amnesic effects associated with σ1 receptor agonism, in two memory tests. Automated receptor–small-molecule ligand docking provided a molecular structure-based rationale for the agonistic effects of 1a and 1b. Overall, the class of the phenoxyalkylpiperidines holds potential for the development of high affinity σ1 receptor agonists, and compound 1a, that appears as the best in class (exceeding by far the activity of the reference compound PRE-084) deserves further investigation.

Diradicals Photogeneration from Chloroaryl-Substituted Carboxylic Acids

With the aim of generating new, thermally inaccessible diradicals, potentially able to induce a double-strand DNA cleavage, the photochemistry of a set of chloroaryl-substituted carboxylic acids in polar media was investigated. The photoheterolytic cleavage of the Ar?Cl bond occurred in each case to form the corresponding triplet phenyl cations. Under basic conditions, the photorelease of the chloride anion was accompanied by an intramolecular electron-transfer from the carboxylate group to the aromatic radical cationic site to give a diradical species. This latter intermediate could then undergo CO2 loss in a structure-dependent fashion, according to the stability of the resulting diradical, or abstract a hydrogen atom from the medium. In aqueous environment at physiological pH (pH=7.3), both a phenyl cation and a diradical chemistry was observed. The mechanistic scenario and the role of the various intermediates (aryl cations and diradicals) involved in the process was supported by computational analysis.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of oxime lacking Psammaplin inspired chemical libraries as anti-cancer agents

In this study, we attempted the chemical simplification of Psammaplin (PsA), while retaining its activity in vitro. Inspired by the previous Structure Activity Relationship (SAR) studies on various PsA analogues and relying on the fact that oxime is metabolically unstable, we initially designed and synthesized a diverse library of PsA analogues and evaluated for cytotoxic activity. Among 32 compounds of Psammaplin analogues synthesized, the compound 10b was almost equally active as parent Psammaplin in vitro.

Design and synthesis of α-phenoxy-N-sulfonylphenyl acetamides as Trypanosoma brucei Leucyl-tRNA synthetase inhibitors

Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), caused by the parasitic protozoa Trypanosoma brucei, is one of the fatal diseases in tropical areas and current medicines are insufficient. Thus, development of new drugs for HAT is urgently needed. Leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS), a recently clinically validated antimicrobial target, is an attractive target for development of antitrypanosomal drugs. In this work, we report a series of α-phenoxy-N-sulfonylphenyl acetamides as T. brucei LeuRS inhibitors. The most potent compound 28g showed an IC50 of 0.70 μM which was 250-fold more potent than the starting hit compound 1. The structure-activity relationship was also discussed. These acetamides provided a new scaffold and lead compounds for the further development of clinically useful antitrypanosomal agents.

Sulfuryl Fluoride Mediated Synthesis of Amides and Amidines from Ketoximes via Beckmann Rearrangement

A metal-free and redox-neutral method for Beckmann rearrangement employing inexpensive and readily available SO2F2 gas is described. The reported transformation proceeds at ambient temperature and is compatible with a wide range of sterically and electronically diverse aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic and lignin-like oximes providing amides in good to excellent yields. The reaction proceeds through the formation of an imidoyl fluoride intermediate that can also be used for the synthesis of amidines.

Design and Synthesis of Novel 4-Hydroxyl-3-(2-phenoxyacetyl)-pyran-2-one Derivatives for Use as Herbicides and Evaluation of Their Mode of Action

In order to develop a novel herbicide containing the β-triketone motif, a series of 4-hydroxyl-3-(2-phenoxyacetyl)-pyran-2-one derivatives were designed and synthesized. The bioassay results showed that compound II15 had good pre-emergent herbicidal activity even at a dosage of 187.5 g ha-1. Moreover, compound II15 showed a broader spectrum of weed control when compared with a commercial herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and displayed good crop safety to Triticum aestivum L. and Zea mays Linn. when applied at 375 g ha-1 under pre-emergence conditions, which indicated its great potential as a herbicide. More importantly, studying the molecular mode of action of compound II15 revealed that the novel triketone structure is a proherbicide of its corresponding phenoxyacetic acid auxin herbicide, which has a herbicidal mechanism similar to that of 2,4-D. The present work indicates that the 4-hydroxyl-3-(2-phenoxyacetyl)-pyran-2-one motif may be a potential lead structure for further development of novel auxin-type herbicides.

ROLES OF MODULATORS OF INTERSECTIN-CDC42 SIGNALING IN ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE

Methods of treating Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative and/or neurocognitive and/or neurodevelopmental diseases are described. The methods comprise the administration of compounds that modulate an activity of cell division control protein 42 (Cdc42), such as the interaction between Cdc42 and intersectin (ITSN). Exemplary modulator compounds include thioureas, disulfonamides of fused aromatic systems (e.g., benzofuran), and acyl hydrazones, among others. Some of the modulator compounds act as activators of Cdc42, while others act as inhibitors. In some cases, the modulator compound has dual functionality and the ability of the modulator compound to act as an inhibitor or activator depends on whether or not Cdc42 is already activated in a particular disease stage or biological environment by an upstream activating signal of Cdc42.

Novel pyrazolone derivatives and corresponding europium(III) complexes: Synthesis and properties research

A series of pyrazolone derivatives ligands L1?7 were successfully synthesized and validated by 1H NMR and MS, corresponding europium complexes [EuL1?7(NO3)2]NO3·EtOAc were synthesized. Physico-chemistry properties of title complexes were determined by Elemental analysis, Molar conductance, UV absorption spectra, IR spectra and Thermogravimetric analysis. The title complexes exhibit characteristic red fluorescence of Eu3+. The effect of various substituent groups in ligands on the of title Eu3+ complexes is ordered: Cl > -Br > -OCH3 > -F > -CH3 > -H > -NO2, and [EuL6(NO3)2]NO3·EtOAc containing Cl possesses the strongest fluorescence intensity, so does fluorescence quantum yield. The electrochemical properties indicate that energy gap Eg and LUMO energy level are huge affected by substituent groups, and variation trends of LUMO energy level affected by diverse substituent groups are also different. The prepared title europium complexes have potential application prospects in the fields of photoelectric functional materials and life sciences.

Synthesis and luminescence properties of novel 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives and their Eu(III) complexes

Six novel 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives were synthesized using 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline and para-substituted phenol as the main starting materials, and were characterized by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry (MS), ultraviolet (UV) light analysis and infra-red (IR) light analysis. Their complexes with Eu(III) were also prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, UV light analysis, IR light analysis, and thermogravimetric–differential thermal analysis (TG–DTA). The results showed that the ligand coordinated well with Eu(III) ions and had excellent thermal stability. The structure of the target complex was EuY1–6(NO3)3.2H2O. The luminescence properties of the target complexes were investigated, the results indicated that all target complexes had favorable luminescence properties and that the introduction of an electron-donating group could enhance the luminescence intensity of the corresponding complexes, but the addition of an electron-withdrawing group had the opposite effect. Among all the target complexes, the methoxy-substituted complex (–OCH3) had the highest fluorescence intensity and the nitro-substituted complex (–NO2) had the weakest fluorescence intensity. The results showed that 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives had good energy transfer efficiency for the Eu(III) ion. All the target complexes had a relatively high fluorescence quantum yield. The fluorescence quantum yield of the complex EuY3(NO3)3.2H2O was highest among all target complexes and was up to 0.628. Because of excellent luminescence properties and thermal stabilities of the Eu(III) complexes, they could be used as promising candidate luminescent materials.
