The heme enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) plays an essential role in immunity, neuronal function, and aging through catalysis of the rate-limiting step in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism. Many IDO1 inhibitors with different chemotypes have been developed, mainly targeted for use in anti-cancer immunotherapy. Lead optimization of direct heme iron-binding inhibitors has proven difficult due to the remarkable selectivity and sensitivity of the heme-ligand interactions. Here, we present experimental data for a set of closely related small azole compounds with more than 4 orders of magnitude differences in their inhibitory activities, ranging from millimolar to nanomolar levels. We investigate and rationalize their activities based on structural data, molecular dynamics simulations, and density functional theory calculations. Our results not only expand the presently known four confirmed chemotypes of sub-micromolar heme binding IDO1 inhibitors by two additional scaffolds but also provide a model to predict the activities of novel scaffolds.

A series of new unsymmetrical (XYC–1 type) palladacycles (C1–C4) were designed and synthesized with simple anchoring ligands L1–4H (L1H = 2-((2-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-1-phenylhydrazinyl)methyl)pyridine, L2H = N,N-dimethyl-4-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)hydrazono)methyl)aniline, L3H = N,N-diethyl-4-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)hydrazono)methyl) aniline and L4H = 4-(4-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)hydrazono) methyl)phenyl)morpholine H = dissociable proton). Molecular structure of catalysts (C1–C4) were further established by single X-ray crystallographic studies. The catalytic performance of palladacycles (C1–C4) was explored with the direct Csp2–H arylation of imidazoles with aryl halide derivatives. These palladacycles were also applied for investigating of Mizoroki–Heck reactions with aryl halides and acrylate derivatives. During catalytic cycle in situ generated Pd(0) nanoparticles were characterized by XPS, SEM and TEM analysis and possible reaction pathways were proposed. The catalyst was employed as a pre-catalyst for the gram-scale synthesis of octinoxate, which is utilized as a UV-B sunscreen agent.
