The formation of arene C-N bonds directly from C-H bonds is of great importance and there has been rapid recent development of methods for achieving this through radical mechanisms, often involving reactiveN-centered radicals. A major challenge associated with these advances is that of regiocontrol, with mixtures of regioisomeric products obtained in most protocols, limiting broader utility. We have designed a system that utilizes attractive noncovalent interactions between an anionic substrate and an incoming radical cation in order to guide the latter to the areneorthoposition. The anionic substrate takes the form of a sulfamate-protected aniline and telescoped cleavage of the sulfamate group after amination leads directly toortho-phenylenediamines, key building blocks for a range of medicinally relevant diazoles. Our method can deliver both free amines and monoalkyl amines allowing access to unsymmetrical, selectively monoalkylated benzimidazoles and benzotriazoles. As well as providing concise access to valuableortho-phenylenediamines, this work demonstrates the potential for utilizing noncovalent interactions to control positional selectivity in radical reactions.

Cathepsin K (Cat K) is a predominant cysteine protease and highly potent collagenase expressed in osteoclasts. Cat K inhibitors are anti-resorptive agents to treat osteoporosis. A novel scaffold of cathepsin K inhibitors, exemplified by lead compound 1x, was used as the template for designing and synthesizing a total of 61 derivatives that have not been reported before. An exploratory structure-activity relationship analysis identified the potent Cat K inhibitor A22, which displayed an IC50 value of 0.44 μM against Cat K. A22 was very specific for Cat K and caused a significantly higher in vitro inhibition of the enzyme as compared to that of lead compound 1x. A surface plasmon resonance analysis confirmed in vitro binding of A22 to Cat K. Molecular docking studies indicated several favourable interaction sites for A22 within the active pocket of Cat K. Furthermore, A22 also blocked active osteoclasts in vitro and increased spinal bone density in zebrafish, in which it showed an activity that was higher than that of the marketed therapeutic bone metabolizer etidronate disodium. A22 represents a very promising lead compound for the development of novel antiresorptive agents functioning as orthosteric inhibitors of Cat K.

A series of 2-aminopyrimidine derivatives were designed and synthesized as highly selective FGFR4 inhibitors. One of the most promising compounds 2n tightly bound FGFR4 with a Kd value of 3.3 nM and potently inhibited its enzymatic activity with an IC50 value of 2.6 nM, but completely spared FGFR1/2/3. The compound selectively suppressed proliferation of breast cancer cells harboring dysregulated FGFR4 signaling with an IC50 value of 0.38 μM. Furthermore, 2n exhibited extraordinary target specificity in a Kinome-wide screen against 468 kinases, with S(35) and S(10) selectivity scores of 0.01 and 0.007 at 1.0 μM, respectively.
