Structure-based design, synthesis, and evaluation of inhibitors with high selectivity for PARP-1 over PARP-2

The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors play a crucial role in cancer therapy. However, most approved PARP inhibitors have lower selectivity to PARP-1 than to PARP-2, so they will inevitably have side effects. Based on the different catalytic domains of PARP-1 and PARP-2, we developed a strategy to design and synthesize highly selective PARP-1 inhibitors. Compounds Y17, Y29, Y31 and Y49 showed excellent PARP-1 inhibition, and their IC50 values were 0.61, 0.66, 0.41 and 0.96 nM, respectively. Then, Y49 (PARP-1 IC50 = 0.96 nM, PARP-2 IC50 = 61.90 nM, selectivity PARP-2/PARP-1 = 64.5) was proved to be the most selective inhibitor of PARP-1. Compounds Y29 and Y49 showed stronger inhibitory effect on proliferation in BRCA1 mutant MX-1 cells than in other cancer cells. In the MDA-MB-436 xenotransplantation model, Y49 was well tolerated and showed remarkable single dose activity. The design strategy proposed in this paper is of far-reaching significance for the further construction of the next generation of selective PARP-1 inhibitors.

Non-innocent Radical Ion Intermediates in Photoredox Catalysis: Parallel Reduction Modes Enable Coupling of Diverse Aryl Chlorides

We describe a photocatalytic system that elicits potent photoreductant activity from conventional photocatalysts by leveraging radical anion intermediates generated in situ. The combination of an isophthalonitrile photocatalyst and sodium formate promotes diverse aryl radical coupling reactions from abundant but difficult to reduce aryl chloride substrates. Mechanistic studies reveal two parallel pathways for substrate reduction both enabled by a key terminal reductant byproduct, carbon dioxide radical anion.

Selective C-O Bond Reduction and Borylation of Aryl Ethers Catalyzed by a Rhodium-Aluminum Heterobimetallic Complex

We report the catalytic reduction of a C-O bond and the borylation by a rhodium complex bearing an X-Type PAlP pincer ligand. We have revealed the reaction mechanism based on the characterization of the reaction intermediate and deuterium-labeling experiments. Notably, this novel catalytic system shows steric-hindrance-dependent chemoselectivity that is distinct from conventional Ni-based catalysts and suggests a new strategy for selective C-O bond activation by heterobimetallic catalysis.

Nickel-Catalyzed Decarbonylative Amination of Carboxylic Acid Esters

The reaction of carboxylic acid derivatives with amines to form amide bonds has been the most widely used transformation in organic synthesis over the past century. Its utility is driven by the broad availability of the starting materials as well as the kinetic and thermodynamic driving force for amide bond formation. As such, the invention of new reactions between carboxylic acid derivatives and amines that strategically deviate from amide bond formation remains both a challenge and an opportunity for synthetic chemists. This report describes the development of a nickel-catalyzed decarbonylative reaction that couples (hetero)aromatic esters with a broad scope of amines to form (hetero)aryl amine products. The successful realization of this transformation was predicated on strategic design of the cross-coupling partners (phenol esters and silyl amines) to preclude conventional reactivity that forms inert amide byproducts.

Ru(II)-Catalyzed Amination of Aryl Fluorides via η6-Coordination

We developed a Ru/hemilabile-ligand-catalyzed nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) of aryl fluorides as the limiting reagents. Significant ligand enhancement was demonstrated by the engagement of both electron-rich and neutral arenes in the SNAr amination without using excess arenes. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that the nucleophilic substitution proceeds on a η6-complex of the Ru catalyst and the substrate, and the hemilabile ligand facilitates dissociation of products from the metal center.

Para-selective borylation of monosubstituted benzenes using a transient mediator

Herein, we conceptualized a transient mediator approach that has the capability of para-selective C-H functionalization of monosubstituted aromatics. This approach is enabled by in situ generation of a versatile sulfonium salt via highly electrophilic phenoxathiine or thianthrene dication intermediate which can be readily generated from its sulfoxide with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride. Preliminary mechanistic study implied that the remarkable para selectivity might be related to the incredible electrophilicity of thianthrene dication intermediate. The versatility of this approach was demonstrated via para-borylation of various monosubstituted simple aromatics combining the sulfonium salt formation with further photocatalyzed transformation.

Pd-Catalyzed Site-Selective Borylation of Simple Arenes via Thianthrenation?

Site-selective borylation of simple arenes was realized in one pot via an electrophilic thianthrenation/Pd-catalyzed borylation sequence. The key to achieve this operatically simple process is the use of Pd catalysis, which could tolerate the solvent and acidic conditions used in the thianthrenation step. This protocol features mild conditions, broad functional group tolerance, and simple manipulations, and is suitable for late-stage functionalization of a wide range of pharmaceuticals and complex bioactive molecules.

Discovery, Optimization, and Target Identification of Novel Potent Broad-Spectrum Antiviral Inhibitors

Viral infections are increasing and probably long-lasting global risks. In this study, a chemical library was exploited by phenotypic screening to discover new antiviral inhibitors. After optimizations from hit to lead, a novel potent small molecule (RYL-634) was identified, showing excellent broad-spectrum inhibition activity against various pathogenic viruses, including hepatitis C virus, dengue virus, Zika virus, chikungunya virus, enterovirus 71, human immunodeficiency virus, respiratory syncytial virus, and others. The mechanism of action and potential targets of RYL-634 were further explored by the combination of activity-based protein profiling and other techniques. Finally, human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase was validated as the major target of RYL-634. We did not observe any mutant resistance under our pressure selections with RYL-634, and it had a strong synergistic effect with some Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs. Hence, there is great potential for developing new broad-spectrum antivirals based on RYL-634.

Nickel-Catalyzed Decarboxylation of Aryl Carbamates for Converting Phenols into Aromatic Amines

Herein, we describe a new catalytic approach to accessing aromatic amines from an abundant feedstock, namely phenols. The most reliable catalytic method for converting phenols to aromatic amines uses an activating group, such as a trifluoromethane sulfonyl group. However, this activating group is eliminated as a leaving group during the amination process, resulting in significant waste. Our nickel-catalyzed decarboxylation reaction of aryl carbamates forms aromatic amines with carbon dioxide as the only byproduct. As this amination proceeds in the absence of free amines, a range of functionalities, including a formyl group, are compatible. A bisphosphine ligand immobilized on a polystyrene support (PS-DPPBz) is key to the success of this reaction, generating a catalytic species that is significantly more active than simple nonsupported variants.

Palladium-Catalyzed Decarbonylative Borylation of Carboxylic Acids: Tuning Reaction Selectivity by Computation

Decarbonylative borylation of carboxylic acids is reported. Carbon electrophiles are generated directly after reagent-enabled decarbonylation of the in situ accessible sterically-hindered acyl derivative of a carboxylic acid under catalyst controlled conditions. The scope and the potential impact of this method are demonstrated in the selective borylation of a variety of aromatics (>50 examples). This strategy was used in the late-stage derivatization of pharmaceuticals and natural products. Computations reveal the mechanistic details of the unprecedented C?O bond activation of carboxylic acids. By circumventing the challenging decarboxylation, this strategy provides a general synthetic platform to access arylpalladium species for a wide array of bond formations from abundant carboxylic acids. The study shows a powerful combination of experiment and computation to predict decarbonylation selectivity.
