THIOSEMICARBAZONES INHIBITORS OF LYSOPHOSPHATIDIC ACID ACYLTRANSFERASE AND USES THEREOF

Lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase-beta (LPAAT-β) catalyzes the production of phosphatidic acid (PA) from lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). The lipid cofactor PA contributes to the activation of c-Raf, BRAF, mTOR and PKC-ζ. LPAAT-β expression is a prognostic factor in gynecologic malignancies and is being investigated as a therapeutic target in a variety of tumor types. A class of thiosemicarbazones was identified as inhibitors of LPAAT-β from a screen of a library of small molecules. A focused library of thiosemicarbazones derivatives was prepared and led to the development of compounds which potently inhibit LPAAT-β and inhibit the growth of MiaPaCa2 human pancreatic cancer cells.

Computational and Experimental Studies of Phthaloyl Peroxide-Mediated Hydroxylation of Arenes Yield a More Reactive Derivative, 4,5-Dichlorophthaloyl Peroxide

The oxidation of arenes by the reagent phthaloyl peroxide provides a new method for the synthesis of phenols. A new, more reactive arene oxidizing reagent, 4,5-dichlorophthaloyl peroxide, computationally predicted and experimentally determined to possess enhanced reactivity, has expanded the scope of the reaction while maintaining a high level of tolerance for diverse functional groups. The reaction proceeds through a novel "reverse-rebound" mechanism with diradical intermediates. Mechanistic insight was achieved through isolation and characterization of minor byproducts, determination of linear free energy correlations, and computational analysis of substituent effects of arenes, each of which provided additional support for the reaction proceeding through the diradical pathway.

CYCLIC PEROXIDE OXIDATION OF AROMATIC COMPOUND PRODUCTION AND USE THEREOF

The present invention provides a method for converting an aromatic hydrocarbon to a phenol by providing an aromatic hydrocarbon comprising one or more aromatic C-H bonds and one or more activated C-H bonds in a solvent; adding a phthaloyl peroxide to the solvent; converting the phthaloyl peroxide to a di-radical; contacting the di-radical with the one or more aromatic C-H bonds; oxidizing selectively one of the one or more aromatic C-H bonds in preference to the one or more activated C-H bonds; adding a hydroxyl group to the one of the one or more aromatic C-H bonds to form one or more phenols; and purifying the one or more phenols.

Metal-free oxidation of aromatic carbon-hydrogen bonds through a reverse-rebound mechanism

Methods for carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bond oxidation have a fundamental role in synthetic organic chemistry, providing functionality that is required in the final target molecule or facilitating subsequent chemical transformations. Several approaches to oxidizing aliphatic C-H bonds have been described, drastically simplifying the synthesis of complex molecules. However, the selective oxidation of aromatic C-H bonds under mild conditions, especially in the context of substituted arenes with diverse functional groups, remains a challenge. The direct hydroxylation of arenes was initially achieved through the use of strong Bronsted or Lewis acids to mediate electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions with super-stoichiometric equivalents of oxidants, significantly limiting the scope of the reaction. Because the products of these reactions are more reactive than the starting materials, over-oxidation is frequently a competitive process. Transition-metal-catalysed C-H oxidation of arenes with or without directing groups has been developed, improving on the acid-mediated process; however, precious metals are required. Here we demonstrate that phthaloyl peroxide functions as a selective oxidant for the transformation of arenes to phenols under mild conditions. Although the reaction proceeds through a radical mechanism, aromatic C-H bonds are selectively oxidized in preference to activated-H bonds. Notably, a wide array of functional groups are compatible with this reaction, and this method is therefore well suited for late-stage transformations of advanced synthetic intermediates. Quantum mechanical calculations indicate that this transformation proceeds through a novel addition-abstraction mechanism, a kind of 'reverse-rebound' mechanism as distinct from the common oxygen-rebound mechanism observed for metal-oxo oxidants. These calculations also identify the origins of the experimentally observed aryl selectivity.

A 'meta effect' in the fragmentation reactions of ionised alkyl phenols and alkyl anisoles

The competition between benzylic cleavage (simple bond fission [SBF]) and retro-ene rearrangement (RER) from ionised ortho, meta and para RC 6H4OH and RC6H4OCH3 (R = n-C3H7, n-C4H9, n-C5H11, n-C7H15, n-C9H19, n-C 15H31) is examined. It is observed that the SBF/RER ratio is significantly influenced by the position of the substituent on the aromatic ring. As a rule, phenols and anisoles substituted by an alkyl group in meta position lead to more abundant methylene-2,4-cyclohexadiene cations (RER fragmentation) than their ortho and para homologues. This 'meta effect' is explained on the basis of energetic and kinetic of the two reaction channels. Quantum chemistry computations have been used to provide estimate of the thermochemistry associated with these two fragmentation routes. G3B3 calculation shows that a hydroxy or a methoxy group in the meta position destabilises the SBF and stabilises the RER product ions. Modelling of the SBF/RER intensities ratio has been performed assuming two single reaction rates for both fragmentation processes and computing them within the statistical RRKM formalism in the case of ortho, meta and para butyl phenols. It is clearly demonstrated that, combining thermochemistry and kinetics, the inequality (SBF/RER) metaorthopara holds for the butyl phenols series. It is expected that the 'meta effect' described in this study enables unequivocal identification of meta isomers from ortho and para isomers not only of alkyl phenols and alkyl anisoles but also in other alkyl benzene series.

Discovery of CS-2100, a potent, orally active and S1P3-sparing S1P1 agonist

S1P3-sparing S1P1 agonists have attracted attention as a suppressant of autoimmunity with reduced side effects. Our synthetic efforts and extensive SAR studies led to the discovery of 10b named CS-2100 with the EC50 value of 4.0 nM for human S1P1 and over 5000-fold selectivity against S1P3. The in vivo immunosuppressive efficacy was evaluated in rats on host versus graft reaction and the ID 50 value was determined at 0.407 mg/kg. The docking studies of CS-2100 with the homology model of S1P1 and S1P3 showed that the ethyl group on the thiophene ring of CS-2100 was sterically hindered by Phe263 in S1P3, not in the case of Leu276 in S1P1. This observation gives an explanation for the excellent S1P3-sparing characteristic of CS-2100.

Stille cross-coupling reactions using vinylcyclopropylstannanes

The Stille cross-coupling reaction between a vinylcyclopropylstannane and iodobenzene or phenol triflate provides an expedious route to 1,2-phenylvinylcyclopropanes. However, similar coupling reactions using ortho-substituted aromatic substrates also lead

Dinitroalkyl aromatics polymerization retarders or inhibitors and methods for making and for using same

A vinyl monomer inhibitor systems is disclosed which includes 2,6-dinitro-4-alkylated phenols and mixtures of 2,6-dinitro-4-alkylated phenols and 2,4-dinitro-6-alkylated phenols as well as vinyl monomer stabilized composition including an effective amount of the inhibitor systems. A method for the preparation and use is also disclosed where phenol is first alkylated under conditions that afford predominately monoalkylated phenols having a high para alkylation preference, followed by nitration of the alkylated phenols to form a dinitrated, monoalkylated product.

Chromium- and tungsten-triggered valence isomerism of cis-1-acyl-2-ethynylcyclopropanes via [3,3] sigmatropy of (2-acylcyclopropyl)vinylidene - Metal intermediates

The reaction of cis vicinal acetylethynylcyclopropanes 1 with a catalytic amount of M(CO)5(THF) (M = Cr or W) in the presence of Et3N at room temperature gave ortho-substituted phenols 7 in good yields as valence isomerized products. In the absence of Et3N the reactions did not work at all. The reaction of a cyclopropane having an ester or an amide instead of an acetyl moiety with M(CO)5(THF) did not take place, whereas an ethynylvinylcyclopropane gave a mixture of 1- and 2-substituted 1,3,5-cycloheptatrienes. These valence isomerization reactions are assumed to proceed via the formation of vinylidene-metal intermediates 2 from terminal alkynyl moieties followed by [3,3]sigmatropy of 2 to give seven-membered carbene complexes 3.

Metal cation-exchanged montmorillonite (Mn+-mont)-catalysed aromatic alkylation with aldehydes and ketones

The alkylation of aromatic compounds with aldehydes and ketones in the presence of a variety of metal cation-exchanged montmorillonites (Mn+-mont; Mn+ = Zr4+, Al3+, Fe3+, Zn2+, H+, Na+) has been investigated. Al3+- and Zr4+-Monts are revealed to be effective as catalysts, while no reaction takes place with Na+-mont. Al3+-Mont-catalysed alkylation of phenol with several aldehydes produces mainly or almost solely the corresponding gem-bis(hydroxyphenyl)alkanes (bisphenols) in good yields, while that with several ketones affords selectively the corresponding alkylphenols in moderate to good yields. The alkylation always occurs at the carbonyl carbon without any skeletal rearrangement and the kind of products depends much on the steric hindrance of an electrophilic intermediary carbocation. The alkylation of anisole, veratrole and p-cresol proceeds well, while that of toluene, benzene, chlorobenzene and nitrobenzene scarcely occurs.
