A convenient procedure for the chemoselective reduction of tertiary amides at room temperature in the presence of air and moisture using 1,3-diphenyldisiloxane (DPDS) is developed. The reaction conditions tolerate a significant number of functional groups including esters, nitriles, secondary amides, carbamates, sulfoxides, sulfones, sulfonyl fluorides, halogens, aryl-nitro groups, and arylamines. The conditions reported are the mildest to date and utilize EtOAc, a preferred solvent given its excellent safety profile and lower environmental impact. The ease of setup and broad chemoselectivity make this method attractive for organic synthesis, and the results further demonstrate the utility of DPDS as a selective reducing agent.

N-alkylation of amines by the reaction with xanthate esters in the presence of acetic acid catalyst in ethanol is reported. Short reaction time, high yield, general applicability and environmentally benign nature are the noteworthy features of our protocol. The probable mechanism for the formation N-alkylation of amines is proposed.

Neuropeptide S modulates important neurobiological functions including locomotion, anxiety, and drug abuse through interaction with its G protein-coupled receptor known as neuropeptide S receptor (NPSR). NPSR antagonists are potentially useful for the treatment of substance abuse disorders against which there is an urgent need for new effective therapeutic approaches. Potent NPSR antagonists in vitro have been discovered which, however, require further optimization of their in vivo pharmacological profile. This work describes a new series of NPSR antagonists of the oxazolo[3,4-a]pyrazine class. The guanidine derivative 16 exhibited nanomolar activity in vitro and 5-fold improved potency in vivo compared to SHA-68, a reference pharmacological tool in this field. Compound 16 can be considered a new tool for research studies on the translational potential of the NPSergic system. An in-depth molecular modeling investigation was also performed to gain new insights into the observed structure-activity relationships and provide an updated model of ligand/NPSR interactions.

Activation of the neuropeptide S receptor (NPSR) system has been shown to produce an-xiolytic-like actions, arousal, and enhance memory consolidation, whereas blockade of the NPSR has been shown to reduce relapse to substances of abuse and duration of anesthetics. We report here the discovery of a novel core scaffold (+) N-benzyl-3-(2-methylpropyl)-1-oxo-3-phenyl-1H,3H,4H,5H,6H,7H-furo[3,4-c]pyridine-5-carboxamide with potent NPSR antagonist activity in vitro. Pharmacokinetic parameters demonstrate that 14b reaches pharmacologically relevant levels in plasma and the brain following intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration, but is cleared rapidly from plasma. Compound 14b was able to block NPS (0.3 nmol)-stimulated locomotor activity in C57/Bl6 mice at 3 mg/kg (i.p.), indicating potent in vivo activity for the structural class. This suggests that 14b can serve as a useful tool for continued mapping of the pharmacological functions of the NPS receptor system.

An improved, efficient synthesis of some functionalized saturated azaheterocycles has been accomplished by controlled functionalization of various readily available cyclic compounds containing ring C=C bond. The stereocontrolled synthetic concept was based on the oxidative ring cleavage of various unsaturated scaffolds across ozonolysis followed by ring closing with double reductive amination with primary alkylamines or fluorinated alkylamines. The protocol provided versatile azaheterocyclic derivatives with a piperidine or azepane framework.

ERK1/2 inhibitors have attracted special attention concerning the ability of circumventing cases of innate or log-term acquired resistance to RAF and MEK kinase inhibitors. Based on the 4-aminoquinazoline pharmacophore of kinases, herein we describe the synthesis of 4-aminoquinazoline derivatives bearing a 1,2,3-triazole stable core to bridge different aromatic and heterocyclic rings using copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC) as a Click Chemistry strategy. The initial screening of twelve derivatives in tumoral cells (CAL-27, HN13, HGC-27, and BT-20) revealed that the most active in BT-20 cells (25a, IC50 24.6 μM and a SI of 3.25) contains a more polar side chain (sulfone). Furthermore, compound 25a promoted a significant release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), suggesting the induction of cell death by necrosis. In addition, this compound induced G0/G1 stalling in BT-20 cells, which was accompanied by a decrease in the S phase. Western blot analysis of the levels of p-STAT3, p-ERK, PARP, p53 and cleaved caspase-3 revealed p-ERK1/2 and p-STA3 were drastically decreased in BT-20 cells under 25a incubation, suggesting the involvement of these two kinases in the mechanisms underlying 25a-induced cell cycle arrest, besides loss of proliferation and viability of the breast cancer cell. Molecular docking simulations using the ERK-ulixertinib crystallographic complex showed compound 25a could potentially compete with ATP for binding to ERK in a slightly higher affinity than the reference ERK1/2 inhibitor. Further in silico analyses showed comparable toxicity and pharmacokinetic profiles for compound 25a in relation to ulixertinib.

The F1FO-ATP synthase is required for growth and viability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is a validated clinical target. A mycobacterium-specific loop of the enzyme's rotary γ subunit plays a role in the coupling of ATP synthesis within the enzyme complex. We report the discovery of a novel antimycobacterial, termed GaMF1, that targets this γ subunit loop. Biochemical and NMR studies show that GaMF1 inhibits ATP synthase activity by binding to the loop. GaMF1 is bactericidal and is active against multidrug- as well as bedaquiline-resistant strains. Chemistry efforts on the scaffold revealed a dynamic structure activity relationship and delivered analogues with nanomolar potencies. Combining GaMF1 with bedaquiline or novel diarylquinoline analogues showed potentiation without inducing genotoxicity or phenotypic changes in a human embryonic stem cell reporter assay. These results suggest that GaMF1 presents an attractive lead for the discovery of a novel class of anti-tuberculosis F-ATP synthase inhibitors.

Background: The bromodomain and extra-terminal proteins (BET), in particular BRD4, has recently emerged as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of many human disorders such as cancer, inflammation, obesity and cardiovascular disease, which draw more and more attention to discover potent BRD4 inhibitors in the past years. In this article, we described the discovery process of an entirely new chemotype of BRD4 inhibitors. Methods: A fragment-based drug discovery strategy was employed in attempting to find a novel chemotype of BRD4 inhibitors. Thus, the potential hits were firstly identified by docking study with KAc binding pocket and AlphaScreen assay. Then the elected hit was further structurally optimized based on the interaction revealed by the docking study and the Structure-Activity Relationship (SAR). Results: A 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one fragment was first identified as an efficient hit to BRD4 with a weak inhibition activity and high ligand efficiency (IC50 = 8.9 μM,LE > 0.5) based on virtual screening and biochemical assay. Then, two-rounds optimization of the hit by a fragment-based drug discovery approach enabled the discovery of a potent BRD4 inhibitor 9, which exhibit nanomolar potency in biochemical assays (IC50 = 0.18 μM). Conclusion: The title compounds displayed potent inhibitory activity to BRD4, implying acetophenone core is an effective KAc residue mimic, suggesting acetophenone derivatives as a new chemotype may be promising for developing novel BRD4 inhibitors. 9.

, p. 159 - 162 (2019/01/04)
A method for the metal-free reduction of carboxylic amides using oxalyl chloride as an activating agent and hydrogen as the final reductant is introduced. The reaction proceeds via the hydrogen splitting by B(2,6-F2-C6H3)3 in combination with chloride as the Lewis base. Density functional theory calculations support the unprecedented role of halides as active Lewis base components in the frustrated Lewis pair mediated hydrogen activation. The reaction displays broad substrate scope for tertiary benzoic acid amides and α-branched carboxamides.
