Background: Aberrant expression of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) is common in many types of cancer including acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Phosphorylation of eIF4E by MAPK-interacting kinases (Mnks) is essential for the eIF4E-mediated oncogenic activity. As such, the pharmacological inhibition of Mnks can be an effective strategy for the treatment of cancer. Methods: A series of N-phenyl-4-(1H-pyrrol-3-yl)pyrimidin-2-amine derivatives was designed and synthesised. The Mnk inhibitory activity of these derivatives as well as their anti-proliferative activity against MV4-11 AML cells was determined. Results: These compounds were identified as potent Mnk2 inhibitors. Most of them demonstrated potent anti-proliferative activity against MV4-11 AML cells. The cellular mechanistic studies of the representative inhibitors revealed that they reduced the level of phosphorylated eIF4E and induced apoptosis by down-regulating the anti-apoptotic protein myeloid cell leukaemia 1 (Mcl-1) and by cleaving poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP). The lead compound 7k possessed desirable pharmacokinetic properties and oral bioavailability. Conclusion: This work proposes that exploration of the structural diversity in the context of N-phenyl-4-(1H-pyrrol-3-yl)pyrimidin-2-amine would offer potent and selective Mnk inhibitors.

A copper-mediated direct cyanation of indoles with benzyl cyanide as the cyanide anion surrogate has been achieved. The cascade reaction furnished 3-cyanoindoles under mild reaction conditions in good to excellent yields with various functional groups tolerance.

Regioselective synthesis of α-cyanopyrroles (vs. α- alkoxycarbonylpyrroles) using oximinocyanoacetate esters in a Knorr-type reductive condensation with β-diketones can be directed by the presence of water. Thus, methyl oximinocyanoacetate was reacted with pentane-2,4-dione in hot acetic acid in the presence of zinc dust to give exclusively 3,5- dimethylpyrrole-2-carbonitrile when the acetic acid was wet; whereas, in glacial acetic acid only methyl 3,5-dimethylpyrrole-2-carboxylate was isolated (~40% yield).
