New indomethacin analogs 4a–g, 5, 6, 8a, and 8b were synthesized to overcome the nonselectivity and ulcer liability of indomethacin. All newly synthesized compounds were more potent against cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2; IC50 value range: 0.09–0.4 μМ) as?compared with celecoxib (IC50 = 0.89 μМ). Compounds 4a, 4b, 4d, 5, and 6 showed the highest COX-2 selectivity index (SI range = 4.07–6.33) as compared with indomethacin (SI = 1.14) and celecoxib (SI = 3.52). Additionally, 4a, 4b, 4d, 5, and 7 showed good anti-inflammatory activity with edema inhibition (79.36–88.8%), relative to celecoxib (78.96%) and indomethacin (90.43%), after 5 h. Also, ulcerogenic effects and histopathological examination were assessed for the most potent analogs,?4b, 4d, 5, and 6, to determine their safety. The results can shed light on indomethacin analog?5 as a remarkable anti-inflammatory lead compound with a good safety profile (ulcer index = 10.62) close to the nonulcerogenic drug celecoxib (ulcer index = 10.53) and better than indomethacin (ulcer index = 18.50). Docking studies were performed in the COX-2 active site for the most active compounds, to test their selectivity and to confirm their mechanism of action.

In this study, we report the design and synthesis of novel hybrids of caffeic acid phenetyl ester (CAPE) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). We assessed their effects on an experimental ocular inflammation in New Zealand rabbits. The formulations of CAPE-aspirin and CAPE-indomethacin hybrids were topical instilled in the rabbit's eye. Afterwards, the anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated by grading the clinical signs and by assessing the inflammatory cell count, protein, PGE2 and TNFα levels in the aqueous humor. Furthermore, ocular tolerability of hybrids formulations was evaluated in a separate set of animals by using a modified Draize test. The ocular inflammation in the control group was significantly higher than in both the hybrid-treated groups, as indicated by clinical grading and biomarkers assessment. However, only the CAPE-aspirin hybrid reduced, in a significant dose-dependent manner, the ocular inflammation elicited by paracentesis. CAPE-indomethacin hybrid was able to significantly attenuate the clinical grading and the PGE2 aqueous levels only at the highest dose (0.1%). CAPE-aspirin significantly reduced PGE2 and TNFα levels in the aqueous humor as well as proteins and PMNs. Finally, all formulations showed no ocular irritation compared with vehicle-treated group. In conclusion, CAPE-aspirin shows full anti-inflammatory efficacy in experimental model of ocular inflammation demonstrating an optimal pharmacological and safety profile. Taken together these data indicate that CAPE-aspirin hybrid represents a valid and safe new chemical entity potentially useful for the treatment of ocular inflammation.

An N,N-dialkylhydroxylamine derivative of indomethacin has been synthesized. It has been shown to improve the delivery of indomethacin through mouse skin (compared to indomethacin itself) by a factor of two, to be more effective than indomethacin in inhibiting thermal inflammation (two to three times) in animal models, but to be only as effective as indomethacin in inhibiting UV-B radiation erythema in human volunteers.

G-protein-coupled receptors for extracellular nucleotides are known as P2Y receptors and are made up of eight members that are encoded by distinct genes and can be classified into two classes based on their affinity for specific G-proteins. P2Y receptor modulators have been studied extensively, but only a few small-molecule P2Y receptor antagonists have been discovered so far and approved by drug agencies. Derivatives of indole carboxamide have been identified as P2Y12 and P2X7 antagonist, as a result, we developed and tested a series of indole derivatives 4a-l having thiourea moiety as P2Y receptor antagonist by using a fluorescence-based assay to measure the inhibition of intracellular calcium release in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells that had been stably transfected with the P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y4 and P2Y6 receptors. Most of the compounds exhibited moderate to excellent inhibition activity against P2Y1 receptor subtype. The series most potent compound, 4h exhibited an IC50 value of 0.36 ± 0.01 μM selectivity against other subtypes of P2Y receptor. To investigate the ligand-receptor interactions, the molecular docking studies were carried out. Compound 4h is the most potent P2Y1 receptor antagonist due to interaction with an important amino acid residue Pro105, in addition to Ile108, Phe119, and Leu102.

An efficient and general radical hydroamination of alkenes using Co(salen) as catalyst, N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI) and its analogues as both nitrogen source and oxidant was successfully disclosed. A variety of alkenes, including aliphatic alkenes, styrenes, α, β-unsaturated esters, amides, acids, as well as enones, were all compatible to provide desired amination products. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the reaction underwent a metal-hydride-mediated hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) with alkene, followed by a pivotal catalyst controlled SN2-like pathway between in situ generated organocobalt(IV) species and nitrogen-based nucleophiles. Moreover, by virtue of modified chiral cobalt(II)-salen catalyst, an unprecedented asymmetric version was also achieved with good to excellent level of enantiocontrol. This novel asymmetric radical C?N bond construction opens a new door for the challenging asymmetric radical hydrofunctionalization.

Control of selectivity is a pivotal challenge in radical chemistry owing to the high reactivity and instability of radical species. Herein, a switchable, base-controlled strategy toward the reincorporation/release of SO2 in photocatalyzed radical difunctionalization of alkenes has been described. By this chemodivergent strategy, a variety of valuable, otherwise difficult-to-access γ-trifluoromethylated ketones and trifluoromethylated sulfonyl ketones can be selectively furnished from the same starting materials. This method features high chemoselectivity, a broad substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance, and facile scale-up and was applied in a one-pot synthetic procedure. Evaluation of the reaction conditions and mechanistic studies indicate that the choice of base can invert the chemoselectivity of the reaction, demonstrating control over a challenging radical selectivity pattern.

We have developed a general and site-predictable manganese-catalyzed hydroarylation of internal alkynes in the presence of water, under an air atmosphere without the involvement of ligand. The unique catalytic feature of this reaction is highlighted by comparison with other widely used transition metal catalysts including palladium, rhodium, nickel, or copper. The simple operation, high efficiency and excellent functional group compatibility make this protocol practical for more than 90 structurally diverse internal alkynes, overcoming the influence of both electronic and steric effect of alkynes. Its exclusive regio- and chemoselectivity originates from the unique reactivity of the manganese-based catalyst towards an inherent double controlled strategy of sterically hindered propargyl alcohols without the installing of external directing groups. Its synthetic robustness and practicality have been illustrated by the concise synthesis of bervastatin, a hypolipidemic drug, and late-stage modification of complex alkynes with precise regioselectivity.

Esterification of (4-hydroxyphenyl)diphenylphosphine, coordinated to the [Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl2] fragment, allows a series of bioactive carboxylic acids to be introduced directly into the organometallic molecule. Evaluation of the compounds on human ovarian cancer cells reveals synergistic enhancements in their antiproliferative activity relative to their bioactive organic and organometallic precursors.

Matched molecular pair analysis was used to evaluate the ability of a tetrazolone group to act as a bioisostere of a carboxylic acid. Compound 7, a tetrazolone of the anti-hypertensive drug, telmisartan 6, was shown to be a potent AT1 antagonist (Kb = 0.14 nM), with activity comparable to telmisartan itself (Kb = 0.44 nM). Additionally, compound 9, a tetrazolone congener of the marketed anti-cancer agent, bexarotene 8, was shown to be an agonist at the retinoid X receptor alpha (EC50 = 64 nM). Compounds containing a tetrazolone group showed similar microsomal stability and plasma protein binding to marketed acid counterparts, while also reducing the value for clog P. Furthermore, compound 7 displayed an improved rat pharmacokinetic profile cf. telmisartan 6. Taken together, the results demonstrate that a tetrazolone group may serve as a bioisostere for a carboxylic acid.

A one-pot and scalable synthesis of tetrazolones (tetrazol-5-ones) from acid chlorides using azidotrimethylsilane is presented. The reaction tolerates many functional groups and can furnish aryl-, heteroaryl-, alkenyl-, or alkyl-substituted tetrazolone products in moderate to excellent yield (14-94%). No reduction in yield was observed when the reaction was undertaken on a larger-scale (20-36 g). The method could be used for the late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals, to provide tetrazolone congeners of the marketed drugs aspirin, indomethacin, probenecid, telmisartan, bexarotene, niacin (vitamin B3), and the active metabolite of the recently-launched immuno-modulatory agent, BG-12 (Tecfidera). The ability of a tetrazolone group to serve as a bioisostere of a carboxylic acid, and to improve drug pharmacokinetic profiles is also highlighted.
