Synthesis of Indole- and Pyrrole-Fused Seven-Membered Nitrogen Heterocycles via Acid-Base Switchable Cyclization Involving Cleavage of Amide C?N Bonds

We report the method for synthesis of indole- and pyrrole-fused seven-membered nitrogen heterocycles by means of acid-base switchable cyclization reactions. The reactions involved cleavage of amide C?N bonds, chemoselective N-1 or C-3 acylation, and 1,4-M

Amide-Amine Replacement in Indole-2-carboxamides Yields Potent Mycobactericidal Agents with Improved Water Solubility

Indolecarboxamides are potent but poorly soluble mycobactericidal agents. Here we found that modifying the incipient scaffold by amide-amine substitution and replacing the indole ring with benzothiophene or benzoselenophene led to striking (10-20-fold) im

Carbene-Catalyzed Enantioselective Aromatic N-Nucleophilic Addition of Heteroarenes to Ketones

The aromatic nitrogen atoms of heteroarylaldehydes are activated by carbene catalysts to react with ketone electrophiles. Multi-functionalized cyclic N,O-acetal products are afforded in good to excellent yields and optical purities. Our reaction involves the formation of an unprecedented aza-fulvene-type acylazolium intermediate. A broad range of N-heteroaromatic aldehydes and electron-deficient ketone substrates works effectively in this transformation. Several of the chiral N,O-acetal products afforded through this protocol exhibit excellent antibacterial activities against Ralstonia solanacearum (Rs) and are valuable in the development of novel agrichemicals for plant protection.

Addition of a Carbene Catalyst to Indole Aryl Aldehyde Activates a Remote δ-sp2 Carbon for Protonation and Formal [4+2] Reaction

The addition of a carbene catalyst to an indole aryl aldehyde leads to the activation of a remote sp2 carbon that is five atoms away from the catalyst. The unsaturated Breslow intermediate formed between the catalyst and substrate undergoes an internal redox reaction and remote carbon protonation to generate an analogous azolium vinyl enolate intermediate. Subsequent [4+2] reaction with cyclic imine substrates eventually affords multicyclic pyridoindoles as nearly single diastereomers with excellent enantioselectivities.

Highly enantioselective synthesis of functionalized azepino[1,2-a] indoles via NHC-catalyzed [3+4] annulation

The enantioselective [3+4] annulation of 3-formylindol-2-methyl-malonates with 2-bromoenals catalyzed by NHCs is described to afford functionalized azepino[1,2-a]indoles in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. This method, in which the 3-formyl group in indoles acts as a necessary mediating group, provided cycloaddition products under mild conditions.

En Route to 2-(Cyclobuten-1-yl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indole

A six-step synthetic route from 4-chloro-2-methylaniline to 5-chloro-2-(cyclobut-1-en-1-yl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indole (1) has been reported. Compound 1a is a key impurity of reverse transcriptase inhibitor efavirenz, an important anti-HIV/AIDS drug. Synthetic challenges, dead ends, and detours are discussed.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of potential inhibitors of the cysteine proteases cruzain and rhodesain designed by molecular simplification

Analogues of 8-chloro-N-(3-morpholinopropyl)-5H-pyrimido[5,4-b]indol-4-amine 1, a known cruzain inhibitor, were synthesized using a molecular simplification strategy. Five series of analogues were obtained: indole, pyrimidine, quinoline, aniline and pyrrole derivatives. The activity of the compounds was evaluated against the enzymes cruzain and rhodesain as well as against Trypanosoma cruzi amastigote and trypomastigote forms. The 4-aminoquinoline derivatives showed promising activity against both enzymes, with IC50values ranging from 15 to 125?μM. These derivatives were selective inhibitors for the parasitic proteases, being unable to inhibit mammalian cathepsins B and S. The most active compound against cruzain (compound 5a; IC50?=?15?μM) is considerably more synthetically accessible than 1, while retaining its ligand efficiency. As observed for the original lead, compound 5a was shown to be a competitive enzyme inhibitor. In addition, it was also active against T. cruzi (IC50?=?67.7?μM). Interestingly, the pyrimidine derivative 4b, although inactive in enzymatic assays, was highly active against T. cruzi (IC50?=?3.1?μM) with remarkable selectivity index (SI?=?128) compared to uninfected fibroblasts. Both 5a and 4b exhibit drug-like physicochemical properties and are predicted to have a favorable ADME profile, therefore having great potential as candidates for lead optimization in the search for new drugs to treat Chagas disease.

Concise synthesis of carbazole-1,4-quinones and evaluation of their antiproliferative activity against HCT-116 and HL-60 cells

We report a convenient synthesis of carbazole-1,4-quinone alkaloid koeniginequinones A and B using a tandem ring-closing metathesis with the dehydrogenation reaction sequence under an O2 atmosphere as an important step. Using this method, carbazole-1,4-quinones substituted at the 5-, 6-, 7-, and/or 8-positions have been synthesized. Moreover, 24 compounds, including koeniginequinones A and B, have been evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against HCT-116 and HL-60 cells, and the 6-nitro analog exhibited the most potent activity against both tumor cell types.

Construction of Benzo[c]carbazoles and Their Antitumor Derivatives through the Diels-Alder Reaction of 2-Alkenylindoles and Arynes

The direct assembly of benzo[c]carbazole derivatives via the Diels-Alder reaction of arynes and easily accessible 2-alkenylidoles was reported. By employing different aryne precursor loads, 6,7-dihydrobenzo[c]carbazoles or aryl-substituted 7,11b-dihydrobenzo[c]carbazoles could be controllably generated in good to excellent yields under a nitrogen atmosphere. On the other hand, when the reaction was conducted under oxygen, oxidated/aromatized product benzo[c]carbazoles could be generated directly with high selectivity and efficiency in a one-step manner. Interestingly, the benzo[c]carbazole-5-carboxamide amidation derivatives of the above products showed good antitumor activities. The inhibitory effect of these molecules against cancer cells was also described.

One-Pot Base-Mediated Synthesis of Functionalized Aza-Fused Polycyclic Quinoline Derivatives

A new one-pot protocol has been developed for the facile and efficient synthesis of aza-fused polycyclic quinolines (e.g., pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinolines) by the base-catalyzed reaction of 2-formylpyrroles and 2-halophenylacetonitriles. This reaction proceeded under transition metal-free conditions and showed high functional group tolerance, with the desired products being formed in good yields.
