Copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) chemistry is reported for the construction of previously unknown 5-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-4,5′- bithiazoles from 2-bromo-1-(thiazol-5-yl)ethanones. These novel triazolobithiazoles are shown to have cyst

A developing therapy of cystic fibrosis caused by the ΔF508 mutation in CFTR employs correction of defective CFTR chloride channel gating by a 'potentiator' and of defective CFTR protein folding by a 'corrector'. Based on SAR data for phenylglycine-type potentiators and bithiazole correctors, we designed a hybrid molecule incorporating an enzymatic hydrolysable linker to deliver the potentiator (PG01) fragment 2 and the corrector (Corr-4a) fragment 13. The hybrid molecule 14 contained PG01-OH and Corr-4a-linker-CO2H moieties, linked with an ethylene glycol spacer through an ester bond. The potentiator 2 and corrector 13 fragments (after cleavage) had low micromolar potency for restoration of ΔF508-CFTR channel gating and cellular processing, respectively. Cleavage of hybrid molecule 14 by intestinal enzymes under physiological conditions produced the active potentiator 2 and corrector fragments 13, providing proof-of-concept for small-molecule potentiator-corrector hybrids as a single drug therapy for CF caused by the ΔF508 mutation.

The synthesis and ΔF508-CFTR corrector activity of a 148-member methylbithiazole-based library are reported. Synthetic routes were devised and optimized to generate methylbithiazole analogs in four steps. Corrector potency and efficacy were assayed using epithelial cells expressing human ΔF508-CFTR. These structure-activity data establish that the bithiazole substructure plays a critical function; eight novel methylbithiazole correctors were identified with low micromolar potencies.
