14β-Chlorocinnamoylamino derivatives of metopon: Long-term μ-opioid receptor antagonists

The affinity, selectivity and antinociceptive properties of 5β-methyl-14β-(p-chlorocinnamoylamino)-7,8-dihydromorphinone (MET-Cl-CAMO) and N-cyclopropyl-methyl-5β-methyl-14β-(p-chlorocinnamoylamino)-7,8 -dihydronormorphinone (N-CPM-MET-Cl-CAMO) for the multiple opioid receptors were characterized. In competition binding assays using bovine striatal membranes, both compounds inhibited the binding of 0.25 nM [3H][D-Ala2,(Me)-Phe4,Gly(ol)5]enkephalin (DAMGO) with IC50 values of less than 2 nM. Preincubation of membranes with MET-Cl-CAMO and N-CPM-MET-Cl-CAMO produced a concentration-dependent, wash-resistant inhibition of μ-opioid receptor binding. Saturation binding experiments with N-CPM-MET-Cl-CAMO showed a reduction in the number of μ-opioid binding sites without a change in affinity. In the mouse 55°C warm-water tail-flick assay, neither MET-Cl-CAMO nor N-CPM-MET-Cl-CAMO at doses up to 100 nmol produced antinociception after intracerebroventricular administration, but morphine-induced antinociception was antagonized in a time- and dose-dependent manner by both compounds. The antagonism produced by 1 nmol of either MET-Cl-CAMO or N-CPM-MET-Cl-CAMO reached a maximal effect after 24 h, and lasted up to 48 h. Analgesia mediated by δ- or κ-opioids was not altered by either compound. In summary, the data suggest that MET-Cl-CAMO and N-CPM-MET-Cl-CAMO are long-term, μ-opioid receptor antagonists, devoid of agonist properties in the mouse tail-flick assay, and that N-CPM-MET-Cl-CAMO may produce its antagonistic effects by binding irreversibly to the μ-opioid receptor.

Metal- and additive-free photoredox cyclization of N-arylacrylamides is herein reported that provides a concise access to the formation of dihydroquinolinones. In this protocol, sustainable visible light was used as the energy source, and the organic light-emitting molecule 4CzIPN served as the efficient photocatalyst. This reaction system features exclusive 6-endo-trig cyclization selectivity with a generally good yield of a range of functionalized dihydroquinolinones and dihydrobenzoquinolinones. Mechanistical studies reveal the feasibility of both 1,3-H shift and intersystem crossing of the diradical intermediate.

Recently, we demonstrated potential anti-inflammatory effects of sorbicillinoids isolated from marine fungi. Here, we report the synthesis of a series of new sorbicillinoid analogues and assessed their anti-inflammatory activities. Our results reveal that side chain substitution with (E)-2-butenoyl, (E)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-propenoyl, and (E)-3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-2-propenoyl significantly enhanced the inhibitory effects of the derivatives on nitric oxide (NO) production and inducible NO synthesis (iNOS) expression stimulated by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in mouse macrophage. Further chemical derivatization shows that the monomethylresorcinol skeleton worked better than the dimethylresorcinol skeleton in inhibiting LPS-induced inflammatory response in cultured cells. Among the 29 synthesized sorbicillinoid analogues, compounds 4b and 12b exhibited the strongest anti-inflammatory activities, holding the promise of being developed into lead compounds that can be explored as potent anti-inflammation agents.

Paragraph 0112-0113; 0116, (2021/06/02)
The invention relates to a cinnamyl-containing rupestonic acid methyl ester derivative as well as a preparation method and application thereof, the derivative is prepared by the following steps: reacting rupestonic acid with dimethyl sulfate to obtain rupestonic acid methyl ester, and then obtaining 2-hydroxyl rupestonic acid methyl ester under the oxidation of camphor sulfonyl acridine. and then reacting with cinnamyl chloride under the catalysis of DMAP to obtain 20 rupestonic acid methyl ester derivatives containing cinnamyl groups. The method has the advantages of mild reaction conditions and simple experimental steps. The obtained 1d-20d rupestonic acid methyl ester derivatives containing the cinnamyl groups are subjected to a preliminary in-vitro anti-influenza A H3N2 virus activity test. Experimental results show that the compounds show good activity in 7d, 15d and 18d, and can be used as drugs for resisting influenza A H3N2 virus.

Lewis basic salts promote benzyltrimethylsilane coupling with (hetero)aryl nitriles, sulfones, and chlorides as a new route to 1,1-diarylalkanes. This method combines the substrate modularity and selectivity characteristic of cross-coupling with the practicality of a base-promoted protocol. In addition, a Lewis base strategy enables a complementary scope to existing methods, employs stable and easily prepared organosilanes, and achieves selective arylation in the presence of acidic functional groups. The utility of this method is demonstrated by the synthesis of pharmaceutical analogues and its use in multicomponent reactions.

Enlightened from our previous work of structural simplification of quinine and innovative application of natural products against phytopathogenic fungi, lead structure 2,8-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4-quinolinol (3) was selected to be a candidate and its diversified design, synthesis, and antifungal evaluation were carried out. All of the synthesized compounds Aa1-Db1 were evaluated for their antifungal activity against four agriculturally important fungi, Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium graminearum, Rhizoctonia solani, and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Results showed that compounds Ac3, Ac4, Ac7, Ac9, Ac12, Bb1, Bb10, Bb11, Bb13, Cb1. and Cb3 exhibited a good antifungal effect, especially Ac12 had the most potent activity with EC50 values of 0.52 and 0.50 μg/mL against S. sclerotiorum and B. cinerea, respectively, which were more potent than those of the lead compound 3 (1.72 and 1.89 μg/mL) and commercial fungicides azoxystrobin (both >30 μg/mL) and 8-hydroxyquinoline (2.12 and 5.28 μg/mL). Moreover, compound Ac12 displayed excellent in vivo antifungal activity, which was comparable in activity to the commercial fungicide boscalid. The preliminary mechanism revealed that compound Ac12 might cause an abnormal morphology of cell membranes, an increase in membrane permeability, and release of cellular contents. These results indicated that compound Ac12 displayed superior in vitro and in vivo fungicidal activities and could be a potential fungicidal candidate against plant fungal diseases.

β-Substituted acrylamides have low electrophilicity and are yet to be exploited in the enantioselective Rauhut–Currier reaction. By exploiting electron-withdrawing protection of the amide and moderate nucleophilicity N-heterocyclic carbenes, such substrates have been converted to enantioenriched quinolones. The reaction proceeds with complete diastereoselectivity, good yield, and modest enantioselectivity. Derivatizations are reported, as are computational studies, supporting decreased amide bond character with electron-withdrawing protection of the nitrogen.
Design, Synthesis, and Anticancer Activity of Cinnamoylated Barbituric Acid Derivatives

This work deals with the design and synthesis of 18 barbituric acid derivatives bearing 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid and cinnamic acid scaffolds to find potent anticancer agents. The target molecules were obtained through Knoevenagel condensation and acylation reaction. The cytotoxicity was assessed by the MTT assay. Flowcytometry was performed to determine the cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, ROS levels and the loss of MMP. The ratios of GSH/GSSG and the MDA levels were determined by using UV spectrophotometry. The results revealed that introducing substitutions (CF3, OCF3, F) on the meta- of the benzyl ring of barbituric acid derivatives led to a considerable increase in the antiproliferative activities compared with that of corresponding ortho- and para-substituted barbituric acid derivatives. Mechanism investigation implied that the 1c could increase the ROS and MDA level, decrease the ratio of GSH/GSSG and MMP, and lead to cell cycle arrest. Further research is needed for structural optimization to enhance hydrophilicity, thereby improve the biological activity of these compounds.

A practical and efficient approach for the synthesis of fluorescent 2,3-naphthalimide derivatives has been developed from readily available starting materials via an intramolecular didehydro-Diels-Alder reaction, which proceeded well under room temperature, exhibiting a wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. The practicability of this methodology has been verified by one-step synthesis of the environmentally sensitive fluorophore 6-DMN on a gram scale with a shorter time, fewer steps and less waste disposal, and without the utilization of toxic transition metals. The present experimental and computational studies support the crucial role of the propiolimide moiety in the transformation.
