Catalytic ortho -acetoxylation of masked benzyl alcohols via an exo -directing mode

A Pd-catalyzed ortho-acetoxylation of masked benzyl alcohols to synthesize various 2-hydroxyalkylphenol derivatives is reported. The 2,6-dimethoxyl benzaldoxime proved to be an efficient exo-type directing group for arene (sp2) C-H functionalization. Two strategies were demonstrated to remove the directing group through N-O and C-O bond cleavages. A high catalyst turnover (>1000) was obtained to illustrate the practicality of this method.

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO1) is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of cancer, chronic viral infections, and other diseases characterized by pathological immune suppression. Recently important advances have been made in understanding IDO1's catalytic mechanism. Although much remains to be discovered, there is strong evidence that the mechanism proceeds through a heme-iron bound alkylperoxy transition or intermediate state. Accordingly, we explored stable structural mimics of the alkylperoxy species and provide evidence that such structures do mimic the alkylperoxy transition or intermediate state. We discovered that O-benzylhydroxylamine, a commercially available compound, is a potent sub-micromolar inhibitor of IDO1. Structure-activity studies of over forty derivatives of O-benzylhydroxylamine led to further improvement in inhibitor potency, particularly with the addition of halogen atoms to the meta position of the aromatic ring. The most potent derivatives and the lead, O-benzylhydroxylamine, have high ligand efficiency values, which are considered an important criterion for successful drug development. Notably, two of the most potent compounds demonstrated nanomolar-level cell-based potency and limited toxicity. The combination of the simplicity of the structures of these compounds and their excellent cellular activity makes them quite attractive for biological exploration of IDO1 function and antitumor therapeutic applications.
2-[(arylmethoxy)imino]imidazolidines with potential biological activities

A series of 2-[(arylmethoxy)imino]imidazolidines was synthesized by reacting 2-chloro-4,5-dihydroimidazole with corresponding O- arylmethylhydroxylamines and evaluated for their α1-, α2-adrenergic and imidazoline I1, I2 receptor binding affinities. The most potent 2-[(naphthalen-1-ylmethoxy)imino] imidazolidine showed a high selectivity and good affinity for the [ 3H]prazosin-labeled α1-adrenoceptors (Ki = 107 nM). Representative compounds of this series were also tested in vivo for possible circulatory effects in rats after intravenous administration.
