Alkenes can be cleaved by means of the (3+2) cycloaddition and subsequent cycloreversion of 1,3-dipoles, classically ozone (O3), but the azide (R?N3) variant is rare. Chemoselectivity for these azide to alkene diazo group transfers (DGT) is typically disfavored, thus limiting their synthetic utility. Herein, this work discloses a palladium-catalyzed intramolecular azide to alkene DGT, which grants chemoselectivity over competing aziridination. The data support a catalytic cycloreversion mechanism distinct from other known metal-catalyzed azide/alkene reactions: nitrenoid/metalloradical and (3+2) cycloadditions. Kinetics experiments reveal an unusual mechanistic profile in which the catalyst is not operative during the rate-controlling step, rather, it is active during the product-determining step. Catalytic DGT was used to synthesize N-heterocyclic quinazolinones, a medicinally relevant structural core. We also report on the competing aziridination and subsequent ring expansion to another N-heterocyclic core structure of interest, benzodiazepinones.

Background and Purpose: TRPM4 is a calcium-activated non-selective cation channel expressed in many tissues and implicated in several diseases, and has not yet been validated as a therapeutic target due to the lack of potent and selective inhibitors. We sought to discover a novel series of small-molecule inhibitors by combining in silico methods and cell-based screening assay, with sub-micromolar potency and improved selectivity from previously reported TRPM4 inhibitors. Experimental Approach: Here, we developed a high throughput screening compatible assay to record TRPM4-mediated Na+ influx in cells using a Na+-sensitive dye and used this assay to screen a small set of compounds selected by ligand-based virtual screening using previously known weakly active and non-selective TRPM4 inhibitors as seed molecules. Conventional electrophysiological methods were used to validate the potency and selectivity of the hit compounds in HEK293 cells overexpressing TRPM4 and in endogenously expressing prostate cancer cell line LNCaP. Chemical chaperone property of compound 5 was studied using Western blots and electrophysiology experiments. Key Results: A series of halogenated anthranilic amides were identified with TRPM4 inhibitory properties with sub-micromolar potency and adequate selectivity. We also showed for the first time that a naturally occurring variant of TRPM4, which displays loss-of-expression and function, is rescued by the most promising compound 5 identified in this study. Conclusions and Implications: The discovery of compound 5, a potent and selective inhibitor of TRPM4 with an additional chemical chaperone feature, revealed new opportunities for studying the role of TRPM4 in human diseases and developing clinical drug candidates.

A variety of 3-substituted and 2,3-disubstituted indoles were synthesized efficiently in good yields through the intramolecular amination of 2-alkenylanilines promoted by readily available iodine(III) reagents in a short reaction time. Mechanistic studies showed that the reaction pathway went through a nitrenium ion and that 3-acetoxy indoline was the key intermediate in the indole formation. The indole product was easily prepared on a gram scale and amination also proceeded smoothly using catalytic 3,5-dimethylphenyl iodine in the presence of mCPBA. Furthermore, the indolo[3,2-a]carbazole scaffold was prepared in good yield in six steps from commercial ortho-iodoaniline. (Figure presented.).

Tandem C-O and C-N Bonds Formation Through O-Arylation and [3,3]-Rearrangement by Diaryliodonium Salts: Synthesis of N-Aryl Benzo[1,2,3]triazin-4(1H)-one Derivatives

, p. 11175 - 11183 (2015/11/18)
Metal-free O-arylation and [3, 3]-rearrangement have been shown as an efficient strategy to construct new C-O and C-N bonds in one-pot reactions. The method was used to prepare N-aryl benzo[1,2,3]triazin-4(1H)-one derivatives in good yields from N-hydroxy benzo[1,2,3]triazin-4(3H)-one and diaryliodonium salts. The reaction was tolerated a variety of sensitive functional groups such as iodine, nitro, ester, and aldehyde groups. A rational mechanism was proposed based on the experimental results, and the reaction was easily up to gram scale.

Palladium-catalyzed oxidative coupling of 2-vinylanilines and isocyanides constitutes a direct, facile, and efficient approach to 2-aminoquinolines. The procedure, employing palladium acetate and silver carbonate, is attractive in terms of assembly efficiency, functional group tolerance, and operational simplicity. A variety of 2-aminoquinolines were prepared in good to excellent yields.
Discovery of novel bacterial RNA polymerase inhibitors: Pharmacophore-based virtual screening and hit optimization

The bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) is a validated target for broad spectrum antibiotics. However, the efficiency of drugs is reduced by resistance. To discover novel RNAP inhibitors, a pharmacophore based on the alignment of described inhibitors was used for virtual screening. In an optimization process of hit compounds, novel derivatives with improved in vitro potency were discovered. Investigations concerning the molecular mechanism of RNAP inhibition reveal that they prevent the protein-protein interaction (PPI) between σ70 and the RNAP core enzyme. Besides of reducing RNA formation, the inhibitors were shown to interfere with bacterial lipid biosynthesis. The compounds were active against Gram-positive pathogens and revealed significantly lower resistance frequencies compared to clinically used rifampicin.
