The CoMFA methodology was applied to melatonin receptor ligands in order to establish quantitative structure-affinity relationships. One hundred thirty-three compounds were considered: they were either collected from literature or newly synthesized in order to gain information about the less explored positions. To this end, various melatonin derivatives were prepared and their affinity for quail optic tecta melatonin receptor was tested. Compounds were aligned on the putative active conformation of melatonin proposed by our previously reported pharmacophore search, and their relative affinities were calculated from the displacement of 2-[125I]-iodomelatonin on different tissues expressing aMT receptors. Compounds were grouped into three sets according to their topology. Subset A: melatonin-like compounds; subset B: N-acyl-2-amino-8-methoxytetralins and related compounds; subset C: N-acyl-phenylalkylamines and related compounds. CoMFA models were derived for each set, using the steric, electrostatic, and lipophilic fields as structural descriptors; the PLS analyses were characterized by good statistical parameters, taking into account the heterogeneity of the binding data, obtained with different experimental protocols. From the CoMFA model for the melatonin-like compounds, besides the well-known positive effect of 2-substitution, a low steric tolerance for substituents in 1, 6, and 7, and a negative effect of electron-rich 4-substituents were observed; the information provided by the newly synthesized compounds was essential for these results. Moreover, a comprehensive model for the 133 compounds, accounting for a common alignment and a common mode of interaction at the melatonin receptor, was derived (Q2 = 0.769, R2 = 0.905). This model validates our previously reported pharmacophore search and offers a clear depiction of the structure-affinity relationships for the melatonin receptor ligands.

Despite intensive studies on the synthesis of 3-formylindoles, it is still highly desirable to develop efficient methods for the formylation of indoles, due to the shortcomings of the reported methods, such as inconvenient operations and/or harsh reaction conditions. Here, we describe a Ph3P/ICH2CH2I-promoted formylation of indoles with DMF under mild conditions. A Vilsmeier-type intermediate is readily formed from DMF promoted by the Ph3P/ICH2CH2I system. A onestep formylation process can be applied to various electron-rich indoles, but a hydrolysis needs to be carried out as a second step in the case of electron-deficient indoles. Convenient operations make this protocol attractive.

Latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection presents one of the largest challenges for tuberculosis control and novel antimycobacterial drug development. A series of pyrano[3,2-b]indolone-based compounds was designed and synthesized via an original eight-step scheme. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro activity against M. tuberculosis strains H37Rv and streptomycin-starved 18b (SS18b), representing models for replicating and nonreplicating mycobacteria, respectively. Compound 10a exhibited good activity with MIC99 values of 0.3 and 0.4 μg/mL against H37Rv and SS18b, respectively, as well as low toxicity, acceptable intracellular activity, and satisfactory metabolic stability and was selected as the lead compound for further studies. An analysis of 10a-resistant M. bovis mutants disclosed a cross-resistance with pretomanid and altered relative amounts of different forms of cofactor F420 in these strains. Complementation experiments showed that F420-dependent glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and the synthesis of mature F420 were important for 10a activity. Overall these studies revealed 10a to be a prodrug that is activated by an unknown F420-dependent enzyme in mycobacteria.

We report here a concise, collective, and asymmetric total synthesis of sarpagine alkaloids and biogenetically related koumine alkaloids, which structurally feature a rigid cage scaffold, with L-tryptophan as the starting material. Two key bridged skeleton-forming reactions, namely tandem sequential oxidative cyclopropanol ring-opening cyclization and ketone α-allenylation, ensure concurrent assembly of the caged sarpagine scaffold and installation of requisite derivative handles. With a common caged intermediate as the branch point, by taking advantage of ketone and allene groups therein, total synthesis of five sarpagine alkaloids (affinisine, normacusine B, trinervine, Na-methyl-16-epipericyclivine, and vellosimine) with various substituents and three koumine alkaloids (koumine, koumimine, and N-demethylkoumine) with more complex cage scaffolds has been accomplished.

Annulative π-extension (APEX) of 3-substituted indoles to pyrido[1,2-a]indoles is developed by using 4-oxo peroxides as π-extending reagents, which are employed as versatile C4 building blocks. This transformation is initiated by Br?nsted acid-mediated Hock rearrangement of the peroxyl group. Notably, the pyrido[1,2-a]indole products are obtained by elimination of the indole moiety from the corresponding dihydropyrido[1,2-a]indoles, which could be selectively formed at room temperature.

A series of N-skatyltryptamines was synthesized and their affinities for serotonin and dopamine receptors were determined. Compounds exhibited activity toward 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, 5-HT6, and D2 receptors. Substitution patterns resulting in affinity/activity switches were identified and studied using homology modeling. Chosen hits were screened to determine their metabolism, permeability, hepatotoxicity, and CYP inhibition. Several D2 receptor antagonists with additional 5-HT6R antagonist and agonist properties were identified. The former combination resembled known antipsychotic agents, while the latter was particularly interesting due to the fact that it has not been studied before. Selective 5-HT6R antagonists have been shown previously to produce procognitive and promnesic effects in several rodent models. Administration of 5-HT6R agonists was more ambiguous-in naive animals, it did not alter memory or produce slight amnesic effects, while in rodent models of memory impairment, they ameliorated the condition just like antagonists. Using the identified hit compounds 15 and 18, we tried to sort out the difference between ligands exhibiting the D2R antagonist function combined with 5-HT6R agonism, and mixed D2/5-HT6R antagonists in murine models of psychosis.

The syntheses of polycyclic thienoindolines bearing a dihydrothiophene or tetrahydrothiophene subunit have not been reported, despite the fact that such compounds may have interesting medicinal properties. Herein, we report a protocol for accessing polycyclic dihydrothiophenes by means of formal [2+2+1] intramolecular dearomatizing cyclization of alkynyl indoles with K2S and S8 as the sources of sulfide. In addition, tetrahydrothienoindolines were stereoselectively synthesized via a one-pot, two-step protocol involving AgNO3-catalyzed alkenyl dearomatization followed by two nucleophilic addition reactions involving K2S.

Acyloxy-substituted α,β-unsaturated imines generated in situ from triazoles can act as aza-[4 C] synthons and be trapped by indoles in a stepwise [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction, thus providing rapid access to valuable pyrido[2,3-b]indoles in high yields. Attractive features of this reaction system include operational simplicity, readily available substrates, construction of sterically demanding quaternary centers, and convenient derivatization using triflate.

, p. 345 - 352 (2020/07/30)
Through a structure-based molecular hybridization strategy, a series of new N-acylhydrazone derivatives containing the benzothiazole and indole based moiety were designed, synthesized and screened for in vitro antiproliferative activity against Hep G2 cancer cell line. One compound (7a) exhibited excellent antiproliferative activity with IC50 values of 0.78 μM against Hep G2. In addition, C-5 substitutions of the indole ring of target compounds might be crucial for their cytotoxic activities. Additionally, the relative configuration of target compounds was confirmed as the E isomer. Further chemical manipulation of derivative 7a can make it possible to obtain new potential antitumor agents.
