Tumor-Activated Benzothiazole Inhibitors of Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase

A series of N-acyl benzothiazoles shows selective and potent cytotoxicity against cancer cell lines expressing cytochrome P450 4F11. A prodrug form is metabolized by cancer cells into an active inhibitor of stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD). Substantial variation on the acyl portion of the inhibitors allowed the identification of (R)-27, which balanced potency, solubility, and lipophilicity to allow proof-of-concept studies in mice. The prodrugs were activated inside the tumor, where they can arrest tumor growth. Together, these observations offer promise that a tumor-activated prodrug strategy might exploit the essentiality of SCD for tumor growth, while avoiding toxicity associated with systemic SCD inhibition.

A novel gold(I)-mediated intramolecular transamidation of benzoyl thiourea derivatives to form benzamides via dethiocyanation

A novel gold(I)-mediated intramolecular transamidation of thiourea derivatives to yield benzamides via dethiocyanation have been achieved by the reaction of 3-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-1-(benzoyl)thiourea derivatives in the presence of gold(I) precursors. The compounds have been characterized using IR, NMR, GC-MS and microanalysis. The single crystal XRD of 3-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-1-(3-bromobenzoyl)thiourea (5), 3-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-1-(3-methoxybenzoyl)thiourea (6), N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)benzamide (10), N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-chlorobenzamide (11), N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-4-nitrobenzamide (12), N-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-bromobenzamide (14) have been discussed. The novel transformation is thought to proceed by a gold(I)-mediated intramolecular transamidation reaction which releases thiocyanate to yield the benzamide. Density functional theory calculations have been used to support the proposed mechanism for this transformation.

Synthesis of benzamide-benzothiazole conjugates via palladium-catalysed aminocarbonylation (hydrazinocarbonylation)

The palladium-catalysed aminocarbonylation of iodoarenes was investigated using 2-amino- and 2-hydrazinobenzothiazole as N-nucleophile. The reaction proved to be highly chemoselective in all cases: carboxamides and the corresponding carbohydrazides, obtained by the acylation at the nitrogen adjacent to the C-2 of the benzothiazole moiety, were obtained exclusively and isolated in moderate to high yields. Systematic investigation of the reaction conditions revealed that the reaction requires relatively high temperature (higher than 70 °C). The effect of the carbon monoxide pressure is different in the synthesis of the two types of products: while the carboxamide formation is favoured, the carbohydrazide formation is lowered by the increasing CO pressure.

Facile synthesis of N-acyl 2-aminobenzothiazoles by NHC-catalyzed direct oxidative amidation of aldehydes

A mild, general, and high yielding synthesis of N-acyl 2-aminobenzothiazoles has been demonstrated by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-organocatalyzed direct amidation of aldehydes with 2-aminobenzothiazoles proceeding via acyl azolium intermediates. The carbene generated from the triazolium salt under oxidative conditions was the key for the success of this reaction. The method was subsequently applied to the synthesis of various biologically important N-acyl 2-aminobenzothiazoles.

Access to Amide from Aldimine via Aerobic Oxidative Carbene Catalysis and LiCl as Cooperative Lewis Acid

Herein, an efficient route to amides from aldimines via aza-Breslow intermediates through aerobic oxidative carbene catalysis with LiCl as a cooperative Lewis acid is described. Many of the obtained N-heteroarylamides feature biological activity. Ambient

Synthesis of sulfur heterocycles via domino metal-mediated reactions

Two methodologies to access S-heterocycles and mixed N,S-heterocycles via metal-mediated domino reactions are described. One involves a cyclocarbopalladation/cross-coupling domino process and leads to benzene-fused five- or six-membered sulfur heterocycles with a stereo defined tetrasubstituted exocyclic double bond. The other consists in a three-component domino reaction between 2-aminophenyl disulfide, copper cyanide, and an electrophile to access N-substituted 2-amino benzothiazoles. Preliminary results in the use of the second method to access N-substituted 2-imino benzothiazoles are also reported.

Aerobic Copper-Mediated Domino Three-Component Approach to 2-Aminobenzothiazole Derivatives

An unprecedented three-component reaction involving a 2,2′-diaminodiaryl disulfide, copper cyanide, and an electrophile is described. This transformation is based on an oxidative copper-mediated S-cyanation as a key step and involves a cyanation/cyclization/acylation domino sequence enabling a rapid and efficient synthesis of diversely substituted 2-aminobenzothiazole derivatives. Notably, this reaction proceeds via an original mechanism involving an intermolecular migration of the acyl group.

PTSA catalyzed straightforward protocol for the synthesis of 2-(N-acyl)aminobenzimidazoles and 2-(N-acyl)aminobenzothiazoles in PEG

An efficient PTSA catalyzed synthesis of 2-(N-acyl)aminobenzimidazoles and 2-(N-acyl)aminobenzothiazoles has been described using S-ethylated-N- acylthioureas as substrates and polyethylene glycol as solvent.

Novel solid-phase parallel synthesis of N-substituted-2-aminobenzo [d]thiazole derivatives via cyclization reactions of 2-iodophenyl thiourea intermediate resin

A novel solid-phase methodology has been developed for the synthesis of N-alkyl, N-acyl, and N-sulfonyl-2-aminobenzo[d]thiazole derivatives. The key step in this procedure involves the preparation of polymer-bound 2-aminobenzo[d]thiazole resins 5 by cyclization reaction of 2-iodophenyl thiourea resin 3. The resin-bound 2-iodophenyl thiourea 3 is produced by addition of 2-iodophenyl isothiocyanate 2 to the amine-terminated linker amide resin 1. These core skeleton 2-aminobenzo[d]thiazole resins 5 undergo functionalization reactions with various electrophiles, such as alkyl halides, acid chlorides, and sulfonyl chlorides to generate N-alkyl, N-acyl, and N-sulfonyl-2-aminobenzo[d]thiazole resins 6, 7, and 8, respectively. Finally, N-alkyl, N-acyl, and N-sulfonyl-2-aminobenzo[d]thiazole derivatives 9, 10, and 11 are then generated in good yields and purities by cleavage of the respective resins 6, 7, and 8 using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in dichloromethane (DCM).

Synthesis of N-benzothiazol-2-yl-amides by a copper-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization process

Employing N-(4,5-dihydrooxazol-2-yl)benzamide as novel and efficient ligand, the copper-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of various substituted 1-acyl-3-(2-bromophenyl)thioureas could be successfully carried out under mild conditions. A variety of N-b
