Natural products have always been an important source of new hits and leads in drug discovery, with the marine environment being regarded as a significant source of novel and exquisite bioactive compounds. Yicathins B and C are two marine-derived xanthones that have shown antibacterial and antifungal activity. Herein, the total synthesis of these yicathins and six novel analogues is reported for the first time. As marine natural products tend to have very lipophilic scaffolds, the lipophilicity of yicathins and their analogues was evaluated in the classical octanol/water system and a biomimetic model-based system. As the xanthonic nucleus is a “privileged structure”, other biological activities were evaluated, namely antitumor and anti-inflammatory activities. An interesting anti-inflammatory activity was identified for yicathin analogues that paves the way for the design of dual activity (anti-infective and anti-inflammatory) marine-inspired xanthone derivatives.

We report the discovery of a new potent allosteric effector of sickle cell hemoglobin, GBT440 (36), that increases the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and consequently inhibits its polymerization when subjected to hypoxic conditions. Unlike earlier allosteric activators that bind covalently to hemoglobin in a 2:1 stoichiometry, 36 binds with a 1:1 stoichiometry. Compound 36 is orally bioavailable and partitions highly and favorably into the red blood cell with a RBC/plasma ratio of ~150. This partitioning onto the target protein is anticipated to allow therapeutic concentrations to be achieved in the red blood cell at low plasma concentrations. GBT440 (36) is in Phase 3 clinical trials for the treatment of sickle cell disease (NCT03036813).

To explore the structure-activity relationships on the inhibitory activity of flavanonols against nitric oxide (NO) production in inflammatory cells, we synthesized 19 flavanonols which shared a common 3,5,7-trihydroxychroman scaffold. A range of substitutions was included in the B ring in order to investigate the structure-activity relationship. We also succeeded in isolating stereoisomers from 16 of the flavanonols using chiral column chromatography. The inhibitory effects of these compounds on NO production were examined in RAW 264.7 cells (a murine macrophage-like cell line), which were activated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). We only observed inhibitory activity against NO production in (2R,3R) stereoisomers, while the inhibitory activities of (2S,3S) stereoisomers were significantly weaker. We also evaluated the free radical scavenging potential of the flavanonols using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). Each stereoisomer indicated the equivalent DPPH scavenging potential as expected. The radical scavenging activity was not correlated with the inhibitory activity against NO. The inhibition of NO production by flavanonols is stereospecific and cannot simply be explained by their radical scavenging activity. We propose the possible existence of a 'target' molecule for flavanonols which is involved in the production and/or regulation of NO in RAW 264.7 cells.

High-pressure Diels-Alder reactions of various alkoxy/alkyl-substituted benzylideneacetones with methyl-1,3-butadienes are reported. Activation by high pressure (8-11 kbar) in combination with the mild Lewis acid HfCl 42THF allows these reactions to efficiently and regioselectively produce a series of ortho-substituted cyclohexenyl-benzene cycloadducts, that are useful precursors for the expeditious construction of the privileged 6,6-dimethyltetrahydro-6H-benzo[c]chromene skeleton. Application to the synthesis of Δ8-trans-THC in both enantiomeric pure forms is based on the successful resolution of selected cycloadduct by the SAMP-hydrazone method.
