Inhibition of histone deacetylase (HDAC) has been regarded as a potential therapeutic approach for treatment of multiple diseases including cancer. Based on pharmacophore model of HDAC inhibitors, a series of quinoline-based N-hydroxycinnamamides and N-hydroxybenzamides were designed and synthesized as potent HDAC inhibitors. All target compounds were evaluated for their in?vitro HDAC inhibitory activities and anti-proliferative activities and the best compound 4a surpass Vorinostat in both enzymatic inhibitory activity and cellular anti-proliferative activity. In terms of HDAC isoforms selectivity, compounds 4a exhibited preferable inhibition for class I HDACs, especially for HDAC8, the IC50 value (442?nM) was much lower than that of Vorinostat (7468?nM). Subsequently, we performed class I & IIa HDACs whole cell enzyme assay to evaluate inhibitory activity in whole cell context. Compounds 4a and 4e displayed much better cellular activity for class I HDACs than that for class IIa HDACs, which indicated that 4a and 4e might be potent class I HDAC inhibitors. Meanwhile, flow cytometry analysis showed that compound 4a and 4e can promote cell apoptosis in?vitro.

A highly enantioselective iridium- or ruthenium-catalyzed intermolecular reductive amination/asymmetric hydrogenation relay with 2-quinoline aldehydes and aromatic amines has been developed. A broad range of sterically tunable chiral N,N′-diaryl vicinal diamines were obtained in high yields (up to 95 %) with excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99 % ee). The resulting chiral diamines could be readily transformed into sterically hindered chiral N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precursors, which are otherwise difficult to access. The usefulness of this synthetic approach was further demonstrated by the successful application of one of the chiral vicinal diamines and chiral NHC ligands in a transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction and asymmetric ring-opening cross-metathesis, respectively.

The reduction of imines to amines via transfer hydrogenation was achieved promoted by phosphine-free manganese(I) catalyst. Using isopropanol as reductant, in the presence of tBuOK (4 mol %) and manganese complex [Mn(CO)3Br(κ2N,N-PyCH2NH2)] (2 mol %), a large variety of aldimines (30 examples) were typically reduced in 3 hours at 80 °C with good to excellent yield.
