Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase-2 (LRRK2) are the most common genetic cause of Parkinson's disease (PD). The most frequent kinase-enhancing mutation is the G2019S residing in the kinase activation domain. This opens up a promising therapeutic avenue for drug discovery targeting the kinase activity of LRRK2 in PD. Several LRRK2 inhibitors have been reported to date. Here, we report a selective, brain penetrant LRRK2 inhibitor and demonstrate by a competition pulldown assay in vivo target engagement in mice.
Convenient modification of the Leimgruber-Batcho indole synthesis: Reduction of 2-nitro-p-pyrrolidinostyrenes by the FeCl3-activated carbon-N2H4H2O system

A new catalytic system containing ferric chloride, activated carbon, and hydrazine has been proposed for the reductive cyclization of β-dialkylamino-2-nitrostyrenes to give the corresponding indoles (Leimgruber-Batcho synthesis). Various substituted indoles may be obtained in high yield under these conditions.

The new arylthioindole (ATI) derivatives 10, 14-18, and 21-24, which bear a halogen atom or a small size ether group at position 5 of the indole moiety, were compared with the reference compounds colchicine and combretastatin A-4 for biological activity. Derivatives 10, 11, 16, and 21-24 inhibited MCF-7 cell growth with IC50 values 2/M phase at 24 h, and at 48 h, 26% of the cells were hyperploid. Molecular modeling studies showed that, despite the absence of the ester moiety present in the previously examined analogues, most of the compounds bind in the colchicine site in the same orientation as the previously studied ATIs. Binding to β-tubulin involved formation of a hydrogen bond between the indole and Thr179 and positioning of the trimethoxy phenyl group in a hydrophobic pocket near Cys241.
