In situ "click" assembly of small molecule matrix metalloprotease inhibitors containing zinc-chelating groups

(Chemical Equation Presented) A panel of small molecule-based MMP inhibitors containing rhodanine warheads was assembled using "one-pot" click chemistry. Upon biological screening, moderate inhibitors were identified which specifically targets MMP-7 and MMP-13 over other MMPs.

Synthesis and Antitrypanosomal Activity of 1,4-Disubstituted Triazole Compounds Based on a 2-Nitroimidazole Scaffold: a Structure-Activity Relationship Study

Chagas disease affects 6–8 million people worldwide, remaining a public health concern. Toxicity, several adverse effects and inefficiency in the chronic stage of the disease are the major challenges regarding the available treatment protocols. This work involved the synthesis of twenty-two 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazole analogues of benznidazole (BZN), by using a click chemistry strategy. Analogues were obtained in moderate to good yields (40-97 %). Antitrypanosomal activity was evaluated against the amastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi. Compound 8 a (4-(2-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole) without substituents on phenyl ring showed similar biological activity to BZN (IC50=3.0 μM, SI>65.3), with an IC50=3.1 μM and SI>64.5. Compound 8 o (3,4-di-OCH3?Ph) with IC50 = 0.65 μM was five-fold more active than BZN, and showed an excellent selectivity index (SI>307.7). Compound 8 v (3-NO2, 4-CH3?Ph) with IC50=1.2 μM and relevant SI>166.7, also exhibited higher activity than BZN. SAR analysis exhibited a pattern regarding antitrypanosomal activity relative to BZN, in compounds with electron-withdrawing groups (Hammett σ+) at position 3, and electron-donating groups (Hammett σ-) at position 4, as observed in 8 o and 8 v. Further research might explore in vivo antitrypanosomal activity of promising analogues 8 a, 8 o, and 8 v. Overall, this study indicates that approaches such as the bioisosteric replacement of amide group by 1,2,3-triazole ring, the use of click chemistry as a synthesis strategy, and design tools like Craig-plot and Topliss tree are promising alternatives to drug discovery.

Synthesis and Preliminary Evaluations of a Triazole-Cored Antagonist as a PET Imaging Probe ([18F]N2B-0518) for GluN2B Subunit in the Brain

GluN2B is the most studied subunit of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) and implicated in the pathologies of various central nervous system disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. As pan NMDAR antagonists often produce debilitating side effects, new approaches in drug discovery have shifted to subtype-selective NMDAR modulators, especially GluN2B-selective antagonists. While positron emission tomography (PET) studies of GluN2B-selective NMDARs in the living brain would enable target engagement in drug development and improve our understanding in the NMDAR signaling pathways between normal and disease conditions, a suitable PET ligand is yet to be identified. Herein we developed an 18F-labeled potent antagonist, 2-((1-(4-[18F]fluoro-3-methylphenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)-5-methoxypyrimidine ([18F]13; also called [18F]N2B-0518) as a PET tracer for imaging the GluN2B subunit. The radiofluorination of [18F]13 was efficiently achieved by our spirocyclic iodonium ylide (SCIDY) method. In in vitro autoradiography studies, [18F]13 displayed highly region-specific binding in brain sections of rat and nonhuman primate, which was in accordance with the expression of GluN2B subunit. Ex vivo biodistribution in mice revealed that [18F]13 could penetrate the blood-brain barrier with moderate brain uptake (3.60% ID/g at 2 min) and rapid washout. Altogether, this work provides a GluN2B-selective PET tracer bearing a new chemical scaffold and shows high specificity to GluN2B subunit in vitro, which may pave the way for the development of a new generation of GluN2B PET ligands.

Synthesis and evaluation of novel triazolyl quinoline derivatives as potential antileishmanial agents

The high potential of quinoline containing natural products and their derivatives in medicinal chemistry led us to discover novel series of 25 compounds for the development of new antileishmanial agents. A series of triazolyl 2-methyl-4-phenylquinoline-3-carboxylate derivatives has been synthesized via click chemistry inspired molecular hybridization approach and evaluated against Leishmania donovani. Most of the screened derivatives exhibited significant in vitro anti-leishmanial activity against promastigote (IC50 ranging from 2.43 to 45.75 μM) and intracellular amastigotes (IC50 ranging from 7.06 to 34.9 μM) than the control, miltefosine (IC50 = 8.4 μM), with less cytotoxicity in comparison to the standard drugs. Overall results revealed that prototype signify a new structural lead for antileishmanial chemotherapy.
