Cathepsin X is a cysteine carboxypeptidase that is involved in various physiological and pathological processes. In particular, highly elevated expression and activity of cathepsin X has been observed in cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. Previously, we identified compound Z9 (1-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)-2-((4-isopropyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)thio)ethan-1-one) as a potent and specific reversible cathepsin X inhibitor. Here, we have explored the effects of chemical variations to Z9 of either benzodioxine or triazol moieties, and the importance of the central ketomethylenethio linker. The ketomethylenethio linker was crucial for cathepsin X inhibition, whereas changes of the triazole heterocycle did not alter the inhibitory potencies to a greater extent. Replacement of benzodioxine moiety with substituted benzenes reduced cathepsin X inhibition. Overall, several synthesized compounds showed similar or improved inhibitory potencies against cathepsin X compared to Z9, with IC50 values of 7.1 μM–13.6 μM. Additionally, 25 inhibited prostate cancer cell migration by 21%, which is under the control of cathepsin X.

Photoswitchable compounds, which can be reversibly switched between two isomers by light, continue to attract significant attention for a wide array of applications. Azoheteroarenes represent a relatively new but understudied type of photoswitch, where one of the aryl rings from the conventional azobenzene class has been replaced with a fivemembered heteroaromatic ring. Initial studies have suggested the azoheteroarenes-the arylazopyrazoles in particular- to have excellent photoswitching properties (quantitative switching and long Z isomer half-life). Here we present a systematic computational and experimental study to elucidate the origin of the long thermal half-lives and excellent addressability of the arylazopyrazoles, and apply this understanding to determine important structure-property relationships for a wide array of comparable azoheteroaryl photoswitches. We identify compounds with Z isomer half-lives ranging from seconds to hours, to days and to years, and variable absorption characteristics, all through tuning of the heteraromatic ring. Conformation perhaps plays the largest role in determining such properties: the compounds with the longest isomerization half-lives adopt a T-shaped ground state Z isomer conformation and proceed through a T-shaped isomerization pathway, whereas the most complete photoswitching is achieved for compounds that have a twisted (rather than T-shaped) Z isomer conformation. By balancing these factors, we report a new azopyrazole 3pzH, which can be quantitatively switched to its Z isomer (1/2 = 74 d at 25 °C). Given the large tunability of their properties, the predictive nature of their performance, and the other functional opportunities afforded by usage of a heteroaromatic system, we believe the azoheteroaryl photoswitches to have huge potential in a wide range of optically addressable applications.

The c-jun N-terminal kinase 3 (JNK3) is expressed primarily in the brain. Numerous reports have shown that inhibition of JNK3 is a promising strategy for treatment of neurodegeneration. The optimization of aminopyrazole-based JNK3 inhibitors with improved potency, isoform selectivity, and pharmacological properties by structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies utilizing biochemical and cell-based assays, and structure-based drug design is reported. These inhibitors had high selectivity over JNK1 and p38α, minimal cytotoxicity, potent inhibition of 6-OHDA-induced mitochondrial membrane potential dissipation and ROS generation, and good drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic (DMPK) properties for iv dosing. 26n was profiled against 464 kinases and was found to be highly selective hitting only seven kinases with >80% inhibition at 10 μM. Moreover, 26n showed good solubility, good brain penetration, and good DMPK properties. Finally, the crystal structure of 26k in complex with JNK3 was solved at 1.8 ? to explore the binding mode of aminopyrazole based JNK3 inhibitors.

Unstable solutions of diazonium salts are formed during the diazotization of 1-methyl-3-amino-5-R-1,2,4-triazoles.When treated with alkali, the diazonium salts change into the Z- and E-diazoates.The pKa values for the E-diazoate-E-diazohydroxide equilibrium were determined.Acidification of solutions of the E-diazohydroxides leads the diazonium salts.In the pH region where the joint presence of the diazohydroxide and diazonium forms is possible the solutions of the diazo compounds exhibited enhanced instability.
