Mer tyrosine kinase (MerTK) is aberrantly elevated in various tumor cells and has a normal anti-inflammatory role in the innate immune system. Inhibition of MerTK may provide dual effects against these MerTK-expressing tumors through reducing cancer cell survival and redirecting the innate immune response. Recently, we have designed novel and potent macrocyclic pyrrolopyrimidines as MerTK inhibitors using a structure-based approach. The most active macrocycles had an EC50 below 40 nM in a cell-based MerTK phosphor-protein ELISA assay. The X-ray structure of macrocyclic analogue 3 complexed with MerTK was also resolved and demonstrated macrocycles binding in the ATP binding pocket of the MerTK protein as anticipated. In addition, the lead compound 16 (UNC3133) had a 1.6 h half-life and 16% oral bioavailability in a mouse PK study.

Secondary nucleic acid structures, such as DNA and RNA quadruplexes, are potential targets for cancer therapies. Ligands that interact with these targets could thus find application as anticancer agents. Synthetic G-quartets have recently found numerous applications, including use as bioinspired G-quadruplex ligands. Herein, the design, synthesis and preliminary biophysical evaluation of a new prototype multitarget G-quadruplex ligand, PNAPorphySQ, are reported, where peptidic nucleic acid guanine (PNAG) was incorporated in the porphyrin-templated synthetic G-quartet (PorphySQ). Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-melting experiments, PorphySQ was shown to possess enhanced quadruplex-interacting properties thanks to the presence of four positively charged PNAG residues that improve its electrostatic interactions with the binding site of both DNA and RNA quadruplexes (i.e., their negatively charged and accessible G-quartets), thereby making PNAPorphySQ an interesting prototype of a multitarget ligand. Both the chemical stability and water solubility of PNAPorphySQ are improved over the non-PNA derivative (PorphySQ), which are desirable properties for drug development, and while improvements remain to be made, this ligand is a promising lead for the further development of multitarget G-quadruplex ligands.

Trimethyllysine hydroxylase (TMLH) is an Fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate (2OG) dependent oxygenase involved in the biomedically important carnitine biosynthesis pathway. A combination of synthetic and NMR studies provides direct evidence that human TMLH catalyzes the stereoselective conversion of (2S)-Nε-trimethyllysine to (2S,3S)-3-hydroxy-Nε-trimethyllysine.

The development of an anti-Markovnikov Wacker-type oxidation for simple aliphatic alkenes is a significant challenge. Herein, a variety of aldehydes can be selectively obtained from various unbiased aliphatic terminal alkenes using PdCl2(MeCN)2/CuCl in the presence of p-benzoquinone (BQ) under mild reaction conditions. Isomerization of the terminal alkene to the internal alkene was suppressed via slow addition of the starting material to the reaction mixture. In addition to the Pd catalyst, CuCl and BQ were essential in order to obtain the anti-Markovnikov product with high selectivity. Terminal alkenes bearing a halogen substituent afforded their corresponding aldehydes with high anti-Markovnikov selectivity. The halogen acts as a directing group in the reaction. DFT calculations indicate that a μ-chloro Pd(II)?Cu(I) bimetallic species with BQ coordinated to Cu is the catalytically active species in the case of a terminal alkene without a directing group.
Palladium-Catalyzed Aerobic Anti-Markovnikov Oxidation of Aliphatic Alkenes to Terminal Acetals

Terminal acetals were selectively synthesized from various unbiased aliphatic terminal alkenes and 1,2-, 1,3-, or 1,4-diols using a PdCl2(MeCN)2/CuCl catalyst system in the presence of p-toluquinone under 1 atm of O2 and mild reaction conditions. The slow addition of terminal alkenes suppressed the isomerization to internal alkenes successfully. Electron-deficient cyclic alkenes, such as p-toluquinone, were key additives to enhance the catalytic activity and the anti-Markovnikov selectivity. The halogen groups in the alkenes were found to operate as directing groups, suppressing isomerization and increasing the selectivity efficiently.

An Fe(III)-catalyzed intramolecular N-N coupling of aliphatic azidoamines that forms diverse five- and six-membered semisaturated diazoheterocycles using air as an oxidant is reported, providing an alternative to hydrazine-based methods. Mechanistic studies suggest that a N-radical induced intramolecular homolytic substitution (SH2) is involved in ring closure. The power of this N-N bond-forming method is also demonstrated by using it as the final step in a total synthesis of (-)-newbouldine.
