While N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) ester has emerged as a powerful reagent as an alkyl radical source for a variety of C-C bond formations, the corresponding C(sp3)-N bond formation is still in its infancy. We demonstrate herein transition-metal-free decarboxylative C(sp3)-X bond formation enabled by the photochemical activity of the NHPI ester-NaI-NHC complex, giving primary C(sp3)-(N)phth, secondary C(sp3)-I, or tertiary C(sp3)-(meta C)phth coupling products. The primary C(sp3)-(N)phth coupling offers convenient access to primary amines.

We previously reported that a lipophilic N-(4′-hydroxy-3′,5′-di-tert-butylbenzyl) derivative (1) of the voltage-gated sodium channel blocker mexiletine, was a more potent sodium channel blocker in vitro and in vivo. We demonstrate that replacing the chiral methylethylene linker between the amine and di-tert-butylphenol with an achiral 1,3-propylene linker (to give (2)) maintains potency in vitro. We synthesized 25 analogues bearing the 1,3-propylene linker and found that minor structural changes resulted in pronounced changes in state dependence of blocking human NaV1.2 and 1.6 channels by high-throughput patch-clamp analysis. Compared to mexiletine, compounds 1 and 2 are highly selective NaV1.2 inhibitors and >500 times less potent in inhibiting NaV1.6 channels. On the other hand, a derivative (compound 4) bearing 2,6-dimethoxy groups in place of the 2,6-dimethyl groups found in mexiletine was found to be the most potent inhibitor, but is nonselective against both channels in the tonic, frequency-dependent and inactivated states. In a kindled mouse model of refractory epilepsy, compound 2 inhibited seizures induced by 6 Hz 44 mA electrical stimulation with an IC50 value of 49.9±1.6 mg kg?1. As established sodium channel blockers do not suppress seizures in this mouse model, this indicates that 2 could be a promising candidate for treating pharmaco-resistant epilepsy.
Photoinduced, Copper-Catalyzed Decarboxylative C-N Coupling to Generate Protected Amines: An Alternative to the Curtius Rearrangement

The Curtius rearrangement is a classic, powerful method for converting carboxylic acids into protected amines, but its widespread use is impeded by safety issues (the need to handle azides). We have developed an alternative to the Curtius rearrangement that employs a copper catalyst in combination with blue-LED irradiation to achieve the decarboxylative coupling of aliphatic carboxylic acid derivatives (specifically, readily available N-hydroxyphthalimide esters) to afford protected amines under mild conditions. This C-N bond-forming process is compatible with a wide array of functional groups, including an alcohol, aldehyde, epoxide, indole, nitroalkane, and sulfide. Control reactions and mechanistic studies are consistent with the hypothesis that copper species are engaged in both the photochemistry and the key bond-forming step, which occurs through out-of-cage coupling of an alkyl radical.
Synthesis, biological evaluation of 9-N-substituted berberine derivatives as multi-functional agents of antioxidant, inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase and amyloid-β aggregation

A series of 9-N-substituted berberine derivatives were synthesized and biologically evaluated as antioxidant and inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase and amyloid-β aggregation. Most of these compounds exhibited very good antioxidant activities, inhibitive activities of AChE and amyloid-β aggregation. Among them, compound 8d, (o-methylphenethyl)amino linked at the 9-position of berberine, was found to be a good antioxidant (with 4.05 μM of Trolox equivalents), potent inhibitor of AChE (an IC50 value of 0.027 μM), and high active inhibitor of amyloid-β aggregation (an IC50 value of 2.73 μM).

Monocyclic Pteridine Analogues. Inhibition of Escherichia coli Dihydropteroate Synthase by 6-Amino-5-nitrosoisocytosines

A variety of 5,6-disubstituted isocytosine derivatives were evaluated in vitro as inhibitors of dihydropteroate synthase from Escherichia coli.A number of 6-(alkylamino)-5-nitrosoisocytosines have in vitro potency equivalent with or superior to that of therapeutically effective sulfonamide inhibitors of the synthase.The sulfonamide drugs are known to complete for the p-aminobenzoic acid binding site of the synthase, and kinetic analysis of inhibition of the synthase by 6-(methylamino)-5-nitrosoisocytosine (16; I50 = 1.6 μM) and by the 6-(3-phenoxypropyl)amino analogue (33; I50 = 3.7 μM) indicated that the nitrosoisocytosine inhibitors compete with the pteridine substrate for the enzyme.Structure-activity studies demonstrated that the enzyme surface has a low tolerance for steric bulk in the region surrounding the isocytosine 6-amino function.However, this steric intolerance may be counterbalanced to a significant degree by positive allosteric interactions achieved by certain analogues that have a 6-(ω-phenylalkyl)amino substituent.For example, 6--5-nitrosoisocytosine (28) is as effective an inhibitor (I50 = 1.4 μM) as the 6-methylamino compound 16.Although several members of the 5-nitroso series were potent synthase inhibitors, none of the nitrosoisocytosines exhibited significant antibacterial activity.This observation may reflect poor transport of these compounds through the bacterial cell wall or, alternatively, may result from a rapid metabolic inactivation process.
