Inversion kinetics of someE/Z3-(benzylidene)-2-oxo-indoline derivatives and theirin silicoCDK2 docking studies

The structure-based design of some CDK2 inhibitors with a 3-(benzylidene)indolin-2-one scaffold as potential anticancer agents was realized. Target compounds were obtained asE/Zmixtures and were resolved to correspondingE- andZ-diastereomers.In silicostudies using MOE 2019.01 software revealed better docking on the targeted enzyme for theZ-diastereomer compared to theE-one. A time-dependent kinetic isomerization study was carried out for the inversion ofE/Zdiastereomers in DMSO-d6at room temperature, and were found to obey the first order kinetic reactions. Furthermore, a determination of the kinetic inter-conversion rate order by graphical analysis method and calculation of the rate constant and half-life of this kinetic process were carried out. For the prediction of the stability of the diastereomer(s), a good multiple regression equation was generated between the reaction rates of isomerization and some QM parameters with significantpvalue.

Selective C3-alkenylation of oxindole with aldehydes using heterogeneous CeO2 catalyst

We report herein that a commercially available CeO2 is an active and reusable catalyst for the C3-selective alkenylation of oxindole with aldehydes under solvent-free conditions. This catalytic method is generally applicable to different aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes, giving 3-alkyledene-oxindoles in high yields (87%–99%) and high stereoselectivities (79%–93% to E-isomers). This is the first example of the catalytic synthesis of 3-alkenyl-oxindoles from oxindole and various aliphatic aldehydes. The Lewis acid-base interaction between Lewis acid sites on CeO2 and benzaldehyde was studied by in situ IR. The structure-activity relationship study using CeO2 catalysts with different sizes suggests that defect-free CeO2 surface is the active site for this reaction.

Synthesis of (E)-3-Alkylideneindolin-2-ones by an Iron-Catalyzed Aerobic Oxidative Condensation of Csp3–H Bonds of Oxindoles and Benzylamines

A novel synthetic route for the construction of (E)-3-alkylideneindolin-2-ones through iron-catalyzed aerobic oxidative condensation of oxindoles with benzylamines has been developed. This oxidative reaction involves a sequence of C–H activation, amine self-condensation, nucleophilic addition, and C–C double bond formation. The synthetic importance of this protocol has been demonstrated by preparing tyrosine kinase inhibitors, anticonvulsant and antitumor agents, and other valuable 3-alkylideneindolin-2-one derivatives. Key intermediates are isolated and a plausible mechanistic pathway for the reaction has been discussed.

Macrocyclic Modalities Combining Peptide Epitopes and Natural Product Fragments

"Hot loop" protein segments have variable structure and conformation and contribute crucially to protein-protein interactions. We describe a new hot loop mimicking modality, termed PepNats, in which natural product (NP)-inspired structures are incorporated as conformation-determining and-restricting structural elements into macrocyclic hot loop-derived peptides. Macrocyclic PepNats representing hot loops of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and human agouti-related protein (AGRP) were synthesized on solid support employing macrocyclization by imine formation and subsequent stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition as key steps. PepNats derived from the iNOS DINNN hot loop and the AGRP RFF hot spot sequence yielded novel and potent ligands of the SPRY domain-containing SOCS box protein 2 (SPSB2) that binds to iNOS, and selective ligands for AGRP-binding melanocortin (MC) receptors. NP-inspired fragment absolute configuration determines the conformation of the peptide part responsible for binding. These results demonstrate that combination of NP-inspired scaffolds with peptidic epitopes enables identification of novel hot loop mimics with conformationally constrained and biologically relevant structure.

Solvent-free synthesis of novel spirocyclic oxindole derivatives via a Michael-aldol cascade by grinding

A simple and novel synthesis of spirocyclic oxindole derivatives by the reaction of (E)-3-arylideneindole-2-ones and 1,4-dithiane-2,5-diol via a Michael-aldol cascade under solvent-free reaction conditions is reported. This method provides a new practical and facile approach to 4′-hydroxy-2′-aryl-4′,5′-dihydro-2′H-spiro[oxindole-3,3′-thiophen]-2-ones in moderate to good yields. The structures of all the products were characterised by NMR, infrared spectroscopy and HRMS.

Natural α-methylenelactam analogues: Design, synthesis and evaluation of α-alkenyl-γ and δ-lactams as potential antifungal agents against Colletotrichum orbiculare

In our continued efforts to improve the potential utility of the α-methylene-γ-lactone scaffold, 62 new and 59 known natural α-methylenelactam analogues including α-methylene-γ-lactams, α-arylidene-γ and δ-lactams, and 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones were synthesized as the bioisosteric analogues of the α-methylenelactone scaffold. The results of antifungal and cytotoxic activity indicated that among these derivatives compound (E)-1-(2, 6-dichlorobenzyl)-3-(2-fluorobenzylidene) pyrrolidin-2-one (Py51) possessed good selectivity with the highest antifungal activity against Colletotrichum orbiculare with IC50?=?10.4?μM but less cytotoxic activity with IC50?=?141.2?μM (against HepG2 cell line) and 161.2?μM (against human hepatic L02?cell line). Ultrastructural change studies performed by transmission electron microscope showed that Py51 could cause important cell morphological changes in C.?orbiculare, such as plasma membrane detached from cell wall, cell wall thickening, mitochondria disruption, a dramatic increase in vacuolation, and eventually a complete loss in the integrity of organelles. Significantly, mitochondria appeared one of the primary targets, as confirmed by their remarkably aberrant morphological changes. Analysis of structure–activity relationships revealed that incorporation of the aryl group into the α-exo-methylene and the N-benzyl substitution increased the activity. Meanwhile, the α-arylidene-γ-lactams have superiority in selectivity over the 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones. Based on the results, the N-benzyl substituted α-(2-fluorophenyl)-γ-lactam was identified as the most promising natural-based scaffold for further discovering and developing improved crop-protection agents.

Oxindole synthesis by palladium-catalysed aromatic C-H alkenylation

A strategy involving palladium-catalysed aromatic C-H functionalisation/ intramolecular alkenylation provides a convenient and direct synthesis of 3-alkylideneoxindoles. In the presence of 5 mol% of PdCl2MeCN 2 and AgOCOCF3, a wide variety of N-cinnamoylanilines gave 3-alkylideneoxindoles in moderate to good yield. The Royal Society of Chemistry.

Tandem Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons/Heck procedures for the preparation of 3-alkenyl-oxindoles: The synthesis of Semaxanib and GW441756

A tandem sequence involving Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons (HWE) olefination followed by a palladium-catalysed intramolecular Heck reaction has been developed to provide rapid access to 3-alkenyl-oxindoles from α-halo-anilides. This one-pot microwave accelerated process proceeds with catalytic palladium(II) acetate or tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium, and has been used to prepare a range of adducts derived from aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic aldehydes. The procedures can be used to prepare N-unprotected oxindoles directly and the applicability of the process has been established by carrying out one-pot syntheses of Semaxanib, an angiogenesis signalling inhibitor, and GW441756, an aza-oxindole Trk A inhibitor.

Functionalized 3-benzylidene-indolin-2-ones: Inducers of NAD(P)H-quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) with antiproliferative activity

Functionalized benzylidene-indolin-2-ones are widely associated with antiproliferative activity. The scaffold is not normally associated with chemoprevention in spite of the presence of a nitrogen-linked Michael acceptor moiety that may predispose members to induction of NQO1, a widely used biomarker of chemopreventive potential. To investigate this possibility, we have synthesized and evaluated a series of functionalized 3-benzylidene-indolin-2-ones for induction of NQO1 in murine Hepa1c1c7 cells as well as antiproliferative activity against two human cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HCT116). The benzylideneindolinones were found to be good inducers of NQO1 activity, with 85% of test compounds able to increase basal NQO1 activity by more than twofold at concentrations of ≤10 μM. By contrast, fewer compounds (11%) tested at the same concentration were able to reduce cell viability by more than 50%. Structure activity relationships showed that the nitrogen linked Michael acceptor moiety was an essential requirement for both activities. This common feature notwithstanding, substitution of the 3-benzylidene-indolin-2-one core structure affected NQO1 induction and antiproliferative activities in dissimilar ways, underscoring different structural requirements for these two activities. Nonetheless, promising compounds (10, 42, 45-48) were identified that combine selective induction of NQO1 with potent antiproliferative activity. A potential advantage of such agents would be the ability to provide added protection to normal cells by the up-regulation of NQO1 and other phase II enzymes while simultaneously targeting neoplastic cells.
