Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is the enzyme degrading the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol, and it is involved in several physiological and pathological processes. The therapeutic potential of MAGL is linked to several diseases, including cancer. The development of MAGL inhibitors has been greatly limited by the side effects associated with the prolonged MAGL inactivation. Importantly, it could be preferable to use reversible MAGL inhibitors in vivo, but nowadays only few reversible compounds have been developed. In the present study, structural optimization of a previously developed class of MAGL inhibitors led to the identification of compound 23, which proved to be a very potent reversible MAGL inhibitor (IC50 = 80 nM), selective for MAGL over the other main components of the endocannabinoid system, endowed of a promising antiproliferative activity in a series of cancer cell lines and able to block MAGL both in cell-based as well as in vivo assays.

Quinazolinediones were obtained from 2-iodobenzoic acids and carbodiimide derivatives under mild reaction conditions via a copper-catalyzed domino reaction. The absence of an external base was essential to avoid the generation of amide by-products. Both alkyl- and aryl-substituted carbodiimides gave the corresponding quinazolinediones. However, the use of aryl-substituted carbodiimides resulted in low yields due to an undesired elimination process.

Several N-isopropyliodobenzamides were evaluated as catalysts for the oxidation of benzhydrol to benzophenone in the presence of Oxone (2KHSO5·KHSO4·K2SO4) as a co-oxidant at room temperature. A study on the substituent effect of the benzene ring of N-isopropyl-2-iodobenzamide on the oxidation revealed that its reactivity increased in the following order of substitution: 5-NO2 2Me, 3-OMe 5-OAc 5-Cl H, 4-OMe 5-Me 5-OMe. The oxidation of various benzylic and aliphatic alcohols using a catalytic amount of the most reactive 5-methoxy derivative successfully resulted in moderate to excellent yields of the corresponding carbonyl compounds. The high reactivity of the 5-methoxy derivative at room temperature is a result of the rapid generation of the pentavalent species from the trivalent species during the reaction. 5-Methoxy-2-iodobenzamide would be an efficient and environmentally benign catalyst for the oxidation of alcohols, especially benzylic alcohols.

A series of cyclic C-glycosides were synthesized using the palladium-catalyzed stereoretentive intramolecular glycosylation of aryl iodides by employing a bulky phosphine ligand. A variety of functional groups are tolerated in the reaction, and enantioenr

A variety of cyclic sulfonamides and sulfinamides could be selectively synthesized under Pd catalysis using haloarenes bearing amino groups and a sulfur dioxide (SO2) surrogate. The amount of base was key in determining the selectivity. Mechanistic studies revealed that sulfinamides were initially formed via an unprecedented formal insertion of sulfur monoxide and were oxidized to sulfonamides in the presence of an iodide ion and DMSO.

Cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligands enable efficient steering of various transition-metal-catalyzed transformations, in particular enantioselective C?H activation. Currently only few chiral Cp ligands are available. Therefore, a conceptually general approach to

Isoindolines are synthesized by palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of N-(2-iodobenzyl) anilines with α,β-unsaturated N-tosylhydrazones. The reaction has several potential advantages: (1) toleration of a wide range of functional groups, (2) easy to handle and with mild conditions, (3) enriches the isoindoline family, (4) two new bonds form in one step.
Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel transrepression- selective liver X receptor (LXR) ligands with 5,11-dihydro-5-methyl-11- methylene-6 H-dibenz[ b, e ]azepin-6-one skeleton

To obtain novel transrepression-selective liver X receptor (LXR) ligands, we adopted a strategy of reducing the transactivational agonistic activity of the 5,11-dihydro-5-methyl-11-methylene-6H-dibenz[b,e]azepin-6-one derivative 10, which exhibits LXR-mediated transrepressional and transactivational activity. Structural modification of 10 based on the reported X-ray crystal structure of the LXR ligand-binding domain led to a series of compounds, of which almost all exhibited transrepressional activity at 1 or 10 μM but showed no transactivational activity even at 30 μM. Among the compounds obtained, 18 and 22 were confirmed to have LXR-dependent transrepressional activity by using peritoneal macrophages from wild-type and LXR-null mice. A newly developed fluorescence polarization assay indicated that they bind directly to LXRα. Next, further structural modification was performed with the guidance of docking simulations with LXRα, focusing on enhancing the binding of the ligands with LXRα through the introduction of substituents or heteroatom(s). Among the compounds synthesized, compound 48, bearing a hydroxyl group, showed potent, selective, and dose-dependent transrepressional activity.
