A copper-catalysed intramolecular N-arylation of 5-aminopyrazoles is demonstrated for the first time. Highly substituted pyrazolo[3,4-b]indoles are synthesized. In particular, the indole core is decorated with halogens and alkyl and methoxy groups. Furthermore, a selective N-arylation of unsymmetrical diaryl bromide containing pyrazoles is exemplified, resulting in valuable pyrazolo[1,5-a]benzimidazoles. This journal is

NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK), an oncogenic drug target that is associated with various cancers, is a central signalling component of the non-canonical pathway. A blind screening process, which established that amino pyrazole related scaffolds have an effect on IKKbeta, led to a hit-to-lead optimization process that identified the aminopyrazole 3a as a low μM selective NIK inhibitor. Compound 3a effectively inhibited the NIK-dependent activation of the NF-κB pathway in tumour cells, confirming its selective inhibitory profile.

In order to identify structural features of pyrimethamine (5-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-ethylpyrimidine-2,4-diamine) that contribute to its inhibitory activity (IC50 value) and chaperoning efficacy toward β-N-acetylhexosaminidase, derivatives of the compound were synthesized that differ at the positions bearing the amino, ethyl, and chloro groups. Whereas the amino groups proved to be critical to its inhibitory activity, a variety of substitutions at the chloro position only increased its IC50 by 2-3-fold. Replacing the ethyl group at the 6-position with butyl or methyl groups increased IC50 more than 10-fold. Surprisingly, despite its higher IC50, a derivative lacking the chlorine atom in the para-position was found to enhance enzyme activity in live patient cells a further 25% at concentrations >100 μM, while showing less toxicity. These findings demonstrate the importance of the phenyl group in modulating the chaperoning efficacy and toxicity profile of the derivatives.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A variety of N-arylated and N-alkylated indole derivatives were synthesized by way of a phenyliodine bis(trifluoroacetate) (PIFA)-mediated intramolecular cyclization. This novel method allows for the construction of an indole skeleton by joining the N-atom on the side chain to the benzene ring at the last synthetic step. Other novel pyrrole-fused aromatic compounds can also be achieved by this method.

In our efforts to identify potent CRF1 antagonists with proper physicochemical properties, a series of 3-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines bearing polar groups, such as amino, hydroxyl, methoxy, sulfoxide, were designed and synthesized. Several positions of the core structure were identified, where a polar group was tolerated with slight reduction in receptor binding. NBI 30545 (18n) was found to have good binding affinity and potent antagonistic activity at the human CRF1 receptor. Moreover, this compound had proper lipophilicity (logD=2.78) and good solubility in water (>10mg/mL), and exhibited good plasma and brain exposure when given orally.
Development of 2,4-diaminopyrimidines as antimalarials based on inhibition of the S108N and C59R+S108N mutants of dihydrofolate reductase from pyrimethamine resistant Plasmodium falciparum

The reduced binding of pyrimethamine to Serl08Asn (S108N) mutants of parasite dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), which forms the basis of resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to pyrimethamine, is largely due to steric constraint imposed by the bulky side chain of N108 on Cl of the 5-p-Cl-phenyl group. This and other S108 mutants with bulky side chains all showed reduced binding to pyrimethamine and cycloguanil. Less effect on binding to some bulky mutants was observed for trimethoprim, with greater flexibility for the 5-substituent. S108N DHFR also binds poorly with other pyrimethamine derivatives with bulky groups in place of the p-Cl, and the binding was generally progressively poorer for the double (C59R+S108N) mutant. Removal of the p-Cl or replacement with m-Cl led to better binding with the mutant DHFRs. Pyrimethamine analogues with unbranched hydrophobic 6-substituents showed generally good binding with the mutant DHFRs. A number of compounds were identified with high affinities for both wild-type and mutant DHFRs, with very low to no affinity to human DHFR. Some of these compounds show good antimalarial activities against pyrimethamine-resistant P. falciparum containing the mutant DHFRs with low cytotoxicity to three mammalian cell lines.
The discovery of 4-(3-pentylamino)-2,7-dimethyl-8-(2-methyl-4- methoxyphenyl)-pyrazolo-[1,5-a]-pyrimidine: A corticotropin-releasing factor (hCRF1) antagonist

Structure-activity relationship studies led to the discovery of 4-(3- pentylamino)-2,7-dimethyl-8-(2-methyl-4-methoxyphenyl)-pyrazolo-[1,5-a]- pyrimidine 11-31 (DMP904), whose pharmacological profile strongly supports the hypothesis that hCRF1 antagonists may be potent anxiolytic drugs. Compound 11-31 (hCRF1 K(i) = 1.0 ± 0.2 nM (n = 8)) was a potent antagonist of hCRF1-coupled adenylate cyclase activity in HEK293 cells (IC50 = 10.0 ± 0.01 nM versus 10 nM r/hCRF, n = 8); α-helical CRF(9-41) had weaker potency (IC50 = 286 ± 63 nM, n = 3). Analogue 11-31 had good oral activity in the rat situational anxiety test; the minimum effective dose for 11-31 was 0.3 mg/kg (po). Maximal efficacy (approximately 57% reduction in latency time in the dark compartment) was observed at this dose. Chlordiazepoxide caused a 72% reduction in latency at 20 mg/kg (po). The literature compound 1 (CP154526-1, 30 mg/kg (po)) was inactive in this test. Compound 11-31 did not inhibit open-field locomotor activity at 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg (po) in rats. In beagle dogs, this compound (5 mg/kg, iv, po) afforded good plasma levels. The key iv pharmacokinetic parameters were t(1/2), CL and V(d,ss) values equal to 46.4 ± 7.6 h, 0.49 ± 0.08 L/kg/h and 23.0 ± 4.2 L/kg, respectively. After oral dosing, the mean C(max), T(max), t(1/2) and bioavailability values were equal to 1260 ± 290 nM, 0.75 ± 0.25 h, 45.1 ± 10.2 h and 33.1%, respectively. The overall rat behavioral profile of this compound suggests that it may be an anxiolytic drug with a low motor side effect liability. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
