In the pursuit of new antimalarial leads, a phenotypic screening of various commercially sourced compound libraries was undertaken by the World Health Organisation Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (WHO-TDR). We report here the detailed characterization of one of the hits from this process, TDR32750 (8a), which showed potent activity against Plasmodium falciparum K1 (EC50 ~ 9 nM), good selectivity (>2000-fold) compared to a mammalian cell line (L6), and significant activity against a rodent model of malaria when administered intraperitoneally. Structure-activity relationship studies have indicated ways in which the molecule could be optimized. This compound represents an exciting start point for a drug discovery program for the development of a novel antimalarial.

experimental part, p. 5641 - 5653 (2012/01/02)
New 1-aryl-5-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamides were synthesized as cannabinoid (CB) receptor ligands. Compound 11 (CB1 Ki = 2.3 nM, CB1 SI = 163.6) showed CB1 receptor affinity and selectivity superior to Rimonabant and AM251. Acute administration of 2 mg/kg 11 reduced sucrose, but not regular food, intake in rats. On the other hand, compound 23 (CB2 Ki = 0.51 nM, CB2 SI = 30.0) showed significant affinity and selectivity for the CB2 receptor. The results presented here show that the 1-aryl-5-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)-1H-pyrazole-3- carboxamide may serve as an effective scaffold for the design of either CB 1 or CB2 receptor ligands.
Zinc-mediated chain extension reaction of 1,3-diketones to 1,4-diketones and diastereoselective synthesis of trans-1,2-disubstituted cyclopropanols
Xue, Song,Li, Le-Zhen,Liu, Yong-Kang,Guo, Qing-Xiang
, p. 215 - 218 (2007/10/03)
A variety of 1,3-diketones can be efficiently converted into the corresponding 1,4-diketones and trans-1,2-disubstituted cyclopropanols by using organozinc species in one-pot reactions. It was found that 2.3 equiv of CF 3CO2ZnCH2I was effective to give the corresponding chain-extended products in 44-85% yields, while a mixture of organozinc species formed from 4.0 equiv of Et2Zn, 2.0 equiv of CF3CO2H, and 4.0 equiv of CH2I2 resulted in the formation of trans-1,2-disubstituted cyclopropanols with quite good yields and diastereoselectivity.

The Michael addition of primary aliphatic nitro compounds to α,β-unsaturated enones, performed in aqueous media, provides the one-pot synthesis of 1,4-diketones, 1,4-diols, δ-nitroalkanols, and hydroxytetrahydrofurans, respectively, by the appropriate cho
Methoxycarbonylation versus Hydroacylation of Ethene; Dramatic Influence of the Ligand in Cationic Palladium Catalysis

The palladium-catalysed carbonylation of ethene in methanol shows acute sensitivity towards the diphosphine ligand used. Systems based on 1,3-bis(di-t-butylphosphino)propane afford catalysts for fast, selective methoxycarbonylation to methyl propionate; t
Oxazaborolidine-catalysed reduction of alk-2-ene-1,4-diones. A convenient access to chiral 1,4-diols
Bach, Jordi,Berenguer, Ramon,Garcia, Jordi,Lopez, Marta,Manzanal, Judith,Vilarrasa, Jaume
, p. 14947 - 14962 (2007/10/03)
An efficient method for the preparation of C2-symmetric, chiral alk-2- ene-1,4-diols (4) has been achieved, based on the borane-mediated reduction of symmetric alk-2-ene-1,4-diones (2) in the presence of oxazaborolidine (R)- 1. In general, the presence of the double bond in 2 has been beneficial (compared with the related saturated 1,4-diketones 3) not only as far as the stereoselectivity in the reduction step is concerned, but also because it allowed us to remove meso-4 by chomatography and/or to improve the stereochemical purity of several resulting mixtures of diols 4 by Sharpless' epoxidation. Enantioenricbed compounds 4 have been readily reduced to saturated diols with negligible loss of optical purity.
Stereoselective reduction of unsaturated 1,4-diketones. A practical route to chiral 1,4-diols
Bach, Jordi,Berenguer, Ramon,Garcia, Jordi,Loscertales, Teresa,Manzanal, Judith,Vilarrasa, Jaume
, p. 1091 - 1094 (2007/10/03)
A new synthetic route to C2-symmetric chiral 1,4-diols based on the borane-mediated oxazaborolidine-catalysed reduction of 2-ene-1,4-diones (2), of 2-yne-1,4-diones (3), and/or of Co-complexed diketones 4 is described. Good to excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivities have been obtained in the reduction of diketones 3 and 4, catalysed by oxazaborolidines 6 and 5, respectively.

Based on the discovery that phosphines could catalyse the isomerisation of triple bonds, the isomerisation of acetylenic derivatives was differentiated into two types: phosphine-catalysed and transition metal-catalysed.
