Enzymes in the methylerythritol phosphate pathway make attractive targets for antibacterial activity due to their importance in isoprenoid biosynthesis and the absence of the pathway in mammals. The fifth enzyme in the pathway, 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol-2,4-cyclodiphosphate synthase (IspF), contains a catalytically important zinc ion in the active site. A series of de novo designed compounds containing a zinc binding group was synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity and interaction with IspF from Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of Whitmore's disease. The series demonstrated antibacterial activity as well as protein stabilization in fluorescence-based thermal shift assays. Finally, the binding of one compound to Burkholderia pseudomallei IspF was evaluated through group epitope mapping by saturation transfer difference NMR.

Paragraph 0012-0014, (2018/06/26)
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing high-purity 4-chloro-2-methylthiopyrimidine-5-ethyl carboxylate. The method comprises the following steps: reacting S-methylisothiourea sulfate and diethyl ethoxy-methylene malonate in an ethanol-sodium hydroxide solution, concentrating to remove ethanol and regulating the pH to be acidic to obtain an intermediate, namely 4-hydroxy-2-hydroxyhydroxypyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester, wherein the molar ratio of the S-methylisothiourea sulfate to the diethyl ethoxy-methylene malonate is 1 to 1.9-2.4; enabling the obtained 4-hydroxy-2-hydroxyhydroxy pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester to react with thionyl chloride to obtain a target product, wherein the molar ratio of the 4-hydroxy-2-hydroxyhydroxy pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester to the thionyl chloride is 1 to 1-1.8. The improved method provided by the invention can improve the yield, increase the reaction safety and reduce the cost.

Selective inhibition of phosphodiesterase (PDE) 4B favorably suppresses the synthesis of inflammatory cytokines and subsequently arrest the development of atopic dermatitis via modulating the intracellular cAMP levels. Considering the side effects of corticosteroids, selective PDE4 inhibition could constitute an effective alternative therapy for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD). In this study, a series of novel catechol based compounds bearing pyrimidine as the core have been synthesized and screened for the PDE4 inhibitory properties. The PDE4 selectivity of the active compounds over other PDEs has been investigated. Compound 23 bearing pyrimidine core functionalized with catechol, pyridine and trifluoromethyl groups can effectively inhibit the PDE4B with IC50 value in nanomolar range (IC50 = 15 ± 0.4 nM). Compound 23 exhibited seven fold higher selectivity towards PDE4B over PDE4D. Molecular Docking study confirmed its stronger affinity towards catalytic domain of PDE4B. In-vivo analysis confirmed that compound 23 effectively alleviated the symptoms of atopic dermatitis in DNCB–treated Balb/c mice by suppressing the synthesis of inflammatory mediators such as TNF-α and Ig-E. Taken together, this study suggested that compound 23 could be an effective PDE4 inhibitor for the potential treatment of AD.
