Investigating the microwave-accelerated Claisen rearrangement of allyl aryl ethers: Scope of the catalysts, solvents, temperatures, and substrates

The microwave-accelerated Claisen rearrangement of allyl aryl ethers was investigated, in order to gain insight into the scope of the catalysts, solvents, temperatures, and substrates. Among the catalysts examined, phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) was found to greatly accelerate the reaction in NMP, at temperatures ranging from 220 to 300 °C. This method was found to be useful for preparing several intermediates previously reported in the literature using precious metal catalysts such as Au(I), Ag(I), and Pt(II). Additionally, substrates bearing bromo and nitro groups on the aryl portion required careful tailoring of the reaction conditions to avoid complex product profiles.

Designed Spiroketal Protein Modulation

Spiroketals are structural motifs found in many biologically active natural products, which has stimulated considerable efforts toward their synthesis and interest in their use as drug lead compounds. Despite this, the use of spiroketals, and especially b

Design, synthesis and pharmacology of 1,1-bistrifluoromethylcarbinol derivatives as liver X receptor β-selective agonists

A novel series of 1,3-bistrifluoromethylcarbinol derivatives that act as liver X receptor (LXR) β-selective agonists was discovered. Structure-activity relationship studies led to the identification of molecule 62, which was more effective (Emax) and selective toward LXRβ than T0901317 and GW3965. Furthermore, 62 decreased LDL-C without elevating the plasma TG level and significantly suppressed the lipid-accumulation area in the aortic arch in a Bio F1B hamster fed a diet high in fat and cholesterol. We demonstrated that our LXRβ agonist would be potentially useful as a hypolipidemic and anti-atherosclerotic agent. In this manuscript, we report the design, synthesis and pharmacology of 1,3-bistrifluoromethylcarbinol derivatives.

NOVOBIOCIN ANALOGUES AND TREATMENT OF POLYCYSTIC KIDNEY DISEASE

Novobiocin analogues are useful in methods of treating, inhibiting, and/or preventing cyst formation in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in a subject. The disclosure provides methods of treating ADPKD comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a coumarin-3-carboxamide novobiocin analogue. Accordingly, the method can include administering a novobiocin analogue in a therapeutically effective amount for reducing levels of mTOR pathway phosphoproteins P-mTOR, P-Akt and P-S6K, or combinations thereof. Further, the method can include administering a novobiocin analogue in a therapeutically effective amount for reducing levels of Hsp-90 client proteins CFTR, ErbB2, c-Raf and Cdk4, or combinations thereof.

Novobiocin: Redesigning a DNA gyrase inhibitor for selective inhibition of Hsp90

Novobiocin is a member of the coumermycin family of antibiotics and is a well-established inhibitor of DNA gyrase. Recent studies have shown that novobiocin binds to a previously unrecognized ATP-binding site at the C-terminus of Hsp90 and induces degradation of Hsp90-dependent client proteins at ～700 μM. In an effort to develop more efficacious inhibitors of the C-terminal binding site, a library of novobiocin analogues was prepared and initial structure-activity relationships revealed. These data suggested that the 4-hydroxy moiety of the coumarin ring and the 3′-carbamate of the noviose appendage were detrimental to Hsp90 inhibitory activity. In an effort to confirm these findings, 4-deshydroxy novobiocin (DHN1) and 3′-descarbamoyl-4- deshydroxynovobiocin (DHN2) were prepared and evaluated against Hsp90. Both compounds were significantly more potent than the natural product, and DHN2 proved to be more active than DHN1. In an effort to determine whether these moieties are important for DNA gyrase inhibition, these compounds were tested for their ability to inhibit DNA gyrase and found to exhibit significant reduction in gyrase activity. Thus, we have established the first set of compounds that clearly differentiate between the C-terminus of Hsp90 and DNA gyrase, converted a well-established gyrase inhibitor into a selective Hsp90 inhibitor, and confirmed essential structure-activity relationships for the coumermycin family of antibiotics.
