In this study, a series of mono- and diallylphenol derivative were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as potential human 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-hLOX-1) inhibitors. Radical scavenging potency of the synthetic allylphenol derivatives was assessed and the results were in accordance with lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibition potency. It was found that the electronic natures of allyl moiety and para substituents play the main role in radical scavenging activity and subsequently LOX inhibition potency of the synthetic inhibitors. Among the synthetic compounds, 2,6-diallyl-4-(hexyloxy)phenol (42) and 2,6-diallyl-4-aminophenol (47) showed the best results for LOX inhibition (IC50 = 0.88 and 0.80 μM, respectively).

Histamine acts through four different receptors (H1R-H4R), the H3R and H4R being the most explored in the last years as drug targets. The H3R is a potential target to treat narcolepsy, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, schizophrenia and several other CNS-related conditions, while H4R blockade leads to anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Our group has been exploring the dihydrobenzofuranyl-piperazines (LINS01 series) as human H3R/H4R ligands as potential drug candidates. In the present study, a set of 12 compounds were synthesized from adequate (dihydro)benzofuran synthons through simple reactions with corresponding piperazines, giving moderate to high yields. Four compounds (1b, 1f, 1g and 1h) showed high hH3R affinity (pKi > 7), compound 1h being the most potent (pKi 8.4), and compound 1f showed the best efficiency (pKi 8.2, LE 0.53, LLE 5.85). BRET-based assays monitoring Gαi activity indicated that the compounds are potent antagonists. Only one compound (2c, pKi 7.1) presented high affinity for hH4R. In contrast to what was observed for hH3R, it showed partial agonist activity. Docking experiments indicated that bulky substituents occupy a hydrophobic pocket in hH3R, while the N-allyl group forms favorable interactions with hydrophobic residues in the TM2, 3 and 7, increasing the selectivity towards hH3R. Additionally, the importance of the indole NH in the interaction with Glu5.46 from hH4R was confirmed by the modeling results, explaining the affinity and agonistic activity of compound 2c. The data reported in this work represent important findings for the rational design of future compounds for hH3R and hH4R.

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.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) present high prevalence rates in the current world. It is estimated that approximately one-third of the global deaths are related to CVDs, and thus there is still a need for novel drugs to treat these disorders. We serendipitously discovered that LINS01005 (5a) is a potent vasodilating agent in rat aorta, and therefore a set of analogues were evaluated for the vasodilating potency in Wistar and SHR rat thoracic aorta precontracted with norepinephrine, with endothelium intact (E+) or denuded (E–) aortic rings. Compounds 5a and 5b were the most potent, showing submicromolar potency for endothelium intact vessels (EC50 853 and 941 nM, respectively) and micromolar values for E– vessels (EC50 2.4 and 7.1 μM, respectively). These compounds were indeed significantly more potent vasodilating agents in SHR-derived aortic rings (p 50 2.4 nM (E+) 9.0 nM (E–)] and 5b [EC50 20 nM (E+) 2.1 μM (E–)]. SAR analysis though PCA and HCA were performed, suggesting that N-phenylpiperazine is essential to the activity, while increasing volume in the substituted aromatic moiety is detrimental to the potency. This is the first report of the vasodilating properties of such compounds, and studies regarding the mechanism of action are in progress in our group.

Histamine is a transmitter that activates the four receptors H1R to H4R. The H3R is found in the nervous system as an autoreceptor and heteroreceptor, and controls the release of neurotransmitters, making it a potential drug target for neuropsychiatric conditions. We have previously reported that the 1-(2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl)methylpiperazines (LINS01 compounds) have the selectivity for the H3R over the H4R. Here, we describe their pharmacological properties at the human H1R and H2R in parallel with the H3R, thus providing a full analysis of these compounds as histamine receptor ligands through reporter gene assays. Eight of the nine LINS01 compounds inhibited H3R-induced histamine responses, but no inhibition of H2R-induced responses was seen. Three compounds were weakly able to inhibit H1R-induced responses. No agonist responses were seen to any of the compounds at any receptor. SAR analysis shows that the N-methyl group improves H3R affinity while the N-phenyl group is detrimental. The methoxy derivative, LINS01009, had the highest affinity.
Hydroquinone-Based Biarylic Polyphenols as Redox Organocatalysts for Dioxygen Reduction: Dramatic Effect of Orcinol Substituent on the Catalytic Activity

A series of 18 new biaryls has been synthesized and investigated with regard to their organocatalytic efficiency. They consist of a hydroquinone core linked to a phenol or a resorcinol moiety. It is shown that the resorcinol moiety substituted on its meta position has a strong impact on the catalytic activities of these compounds towards the reduction of dioxygen by diethylhydroxylamine (DEHA) in aqueous medium. While the derivative consisting of the two cores spaced by three methylene units is completely inactive, substitution on the hydroquinone part leads to tremendously active catalysts, especially the biaryl consisting of methoxyhydroquinone-orcinol. Two mechanisms are proposed to explain the dramatic efficiency of the novel hydroquinone-based biarylic polyphenols for the catalytic reduction of dioxygen, both considering the influence of the orcinol moiety on the semiquinone anion intermediate. As a first hypothesis, this substituent could promote its direct reduction by DEHA to regenerate the hydroquinone, which will react again to regenerate the semiquinone. On the other hand, an intramolecular hydrogen bond could enhance the reactivity of the semiquinone anion toward dioxygen by an addition–elimination mechanism. In this case, the elimination would provide the corresponding quinone but, since the reduction of the quinones by DEHA is much slower than the observed kinetics, a reduction by DEHA prior to the elimination has to be considered to generate the semiquinone anion instead of the quinone.

Photocatalytic synthesis of dihydrobenzofurans by oxidative [3+2] cycloaddition of phenols

We report a protocol for oxidative [3+2] cycloadditions of phenols and alkenes applicable to the modular synthesis of a large family of dihydrobenzofuran natural products. Visible-light-activated transition metal photocatalysis enables the use of ammonium persulfate as an easily handled benign terminal oxidant. The broad range of organic substrates that are readily oxidized by photoredox catalysis suggests that this strategy may be applicable to a variety of useful oxidative transformations.
