Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that causes severe motor, sensory, and cognitive impairments. Kallikrein-related peptidase (KLK)6 is the most abundant serine protease secreted in the CNS, mainly by oligodendrocytes, the myelin-producing cells of the CNS, and KLK6 is assumed to be a robust biomarker of MS, since it is highly increased in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of MS patients. Here, we report the design and biological evaluation of KLK6's low-molecular-weight inhibitors, para-aminobenzyl derivatives. Interestingly, selected hit compounds were selective of the KLK6 proteolytic network encompassing KLK1 and plasmin that also participate in the development of MS physiopathology. Moreover, hits were found noncytotoxic on primary cultures of murine neurons and oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs). Among them, two compounds (32 and 42) were shown to promote the differentiation of OPCs into mature oligodendrocytes in vitro constituting thus emerging leads for the development of regenerative therapies.

We describe herein a regioselective palladium(II)catalyzed intermolecular hydroarylation of unactivated aliphatic alkenes with electronically and sterically diverse (hetero)arylsilanes under redox-neutral conditions. A removable bidentate 8-amino-quinoline auxiliary was readily employed to dictate the regioselectivity, prevent β-hydride elimination, and facilitate protodepalladation. This silicon-based protocol features a broad substrate scope with excellent functional group compatibility and enables an expeditious route to a variety of γ-aryl butyric acid derivatives in good yields with exclusive anti-Markovnikov selectivity.
Cooperative iodine and photoredox catalysis for direct oxidative lactonization of carboxylic acids

, p. 933 - 936 (2019/01/23)
A new method for the formation of γ- and δ-lactones from carboxylic acids through direct conversion of benzylic C-H to C-O bonds is described. The reaction is conveniently induced by visible light and relies on a mild cooperative catalysis by the combination of molecular iodine and an organic dye.
