Acylaminobenzothiazole hits were identified as potential inhibitors of Trypanosoma cruzi replication, a parasite responsible for Chagas disease. We selected compound 1 for lead optimization, aiming to improve in parallel its anti-T. cruzi activity (IC50 = 0.63 μM) and its human metabolic stability (human clearance = 9.57 mL/min/g). A total of 39 analogues of 1 were synthesized and tested in vitro. We established a multiparametric structure-activity relationship, allowing optimization of antiparasite activity, physicochemical parameters, and ADME properties. We identified compound 50 as an advanced lead with an improved anti-T. cruzi activity in vitro (IC50 = 0.079 μM) and an enhanced metabolic stability (human clearance = 0.41 mL/min/g) and opportunity for the oral route of administration. After tolerability assessment, 50 demonstrated a promising in vivo efficacy.

An iron(III)-catalyzed method for the rapid and highly regioselective iodination of arenes has been developed. Use of the powerful Lewis acid, iron(III) triflimide, generated in situ from iron(III) chloride and a readily available triflimide-based ionic liquid allowed activation of N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) and efficient iodination under mild conditions of a wide range of substrates including biologically active compounds and molecular imaging agents.
Syntheses of 4-[1-(2-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)]-derivatives of 2-substituted-5-fluoroaniline: 'Cytosine replacement' analogs of deoxycytidine for evaluation as anticancer and antihuman immunodeficiency virus (anti-HIV) agents

A group of 4-[1-(2-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)]-derivatives of 5-fluoroaniline possessing a variety of aryl C-2 substituents (6a R = H, 6b R = F, 6c R = Me) were synthesized. Accordingly, a Heck-type coupling reaction of the 4-iodoaniline derivatives (13a-c) with the bis(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)glycal (11) in the presence of Pd(OAc)2 and Ph3As, followed by removal of the tert-butyldimethylsilyl protection groups using n-Bu4N+F-, yielded the corresponding 4-(β-D-glycero-pentofuran-3-ulos-1-yl)aniline derivatives (14a-c) having a C-3 C=O in the sugar ring. Reduction of the C-3 C=O compounds (14a-c) using NaB(OAc)3H afforded the target 4-[1-(2-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)]-derivatives of the respective 2-substituted-5-fluoroaniline (6a-c). The deoxycytidine mimic, 3-fluoro-4-[1-(2-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)]aniline (6a), in which the cytosine ring of deoxycytidine is replaced by a 4-(3-fluoroaniline) ring system, was inactive as an anticancer agent against a variety of tumor cell lines, and as an antihuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1, HIV-2) agent. The failure of this unnatural deoxycytidine mimic (6a) to exhibit anticancer-antiviral activity may be due to its inability to undergo phosphorylation by host cell- and virus-induced kinases.
