ROCK1 and ROCK2 are highly homologous isoforms. Accumulated studies indicate that they have distinct different functions, and the development of isoform selective ROCK inhibitors will pave new roads for the treatment of various diseases. In this work, a series of amide-chroman derivatives were synthesized and biologically evaluated in order to develop potent and isoform selective ROCK2 inhibitors. Remarkably, (S)-6-methoxy-chroman-3-carboxylic acid (4-pyridin-4-yl-phenyl)-amide ((S)-7c) possessed ROCK2 inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 3 nM and 22.7-fold isoform selectivity (vs. ROCK1). Molecular docking indicated that hydrophobic interactions were the key element for the high potency and isoform selectivity of (S)-7c. The binding free energies predicted by MM/GBSA were in good agreement with the experimental bioactivities, and the analysis of individual energy terms suggested that residue Lys105 in ROCK1 or Lys121 in ROCK2 was the key residue for the isoform selectivity of (S)-7c.

Abstract Reaction of tert-butyl 3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-methylenepropanoate esters with aqueous KOH provides convenient and chemoselective one-pot access to 2H-chromene-3-carboxylic acids, the overall transformation involving tandem conjugate addition, hydrolysis and elimination steps. The methodology complements the chemoselective, acid-catalysed route to 3-substituted coumarins from the same substrates by switching the regioselectivity of cyclisation.

A series of 3-nitrochromenes were designed and synthesized. These compounds showed good inhibitory activity against thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) and the proliferation of A549 cancer cells. The structure-activity relationship analysis indicates that the 3-nitrochromene scaffold is the crucial pharmacophore for achieving good inhibitory activity. The bromo-substitutions at the 6- and 8-position of 3-nitrochromene significantly increase the inhibitory activity. A series of 3-nitrochromenes were designed and synthesized.
