Discovery of highly potent tubulin polymerization inhibitors: Design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationships of novel 2,7-diaryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines

By removing 5-methyl and 6-acetyl groups in our previously reported compound 3, we designed a series of novel 2,7-diaryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives as potential tubulin polymerization inhibitors. Among them, compound 5e displayed low nanomolar antiproliferative efficacy on HeLa cells which was 166-fold higher than the lead analogue 3. Interestingly, 5e displayed significant selectivity in inhibiting cancer cells over HEK-293 (normal human embryonic kidney cells). In addition, 5e dose-dependently arrested HeLa in G2/M phase through the alterations of the expression levels of p-cdc2 and cyclin B1, and caused HeLa cells apoptosis by regulation of expressions of cleaved PARP. Further evidence demonstrated that 5e effectively inhibited tubulin polymerization and was 3-fold more powerful than positive control CA-4. Moreover, molecular docking analysis indicated that 5e overlapped well with CA-4 in the colchicine-binding site. These studies demonstrated that 2,7-diaryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine skeleton might be used as the leading unit to develop novel tubulin polymerization inhibitors as potential anticancer agents.

A new approach for the synthesis of novel naphthoquinone chalcone hybrid compounds

A facile and efficient synthesis of novel naphthoquinone-based chalcone hybrids (7 and 24) via the microwave-assisted one-pot three-component reactions of 2-substituted-1,4-naphthoquinones, N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMF-DMA), and acetophenone derivatives has been reported. Whereas the synthesis of hybrids 7 proceeded via a condensation, 1,4-addition, rotation, elimination, and [1,3]-H shift sequence of steps, the synthesis of hybrids 24 were formed through a three-step sequence including condensation, 1,4-addition, and elimination reactions.

Stereoselective synthesis of trifluoromethyl-substituted 2: H -furan-amines from enaminones

A straightforward strategy for synthesis of highly functionalized trifluoromethyl 2H-furans is described. The copper catalyzed method relies on a cascade cyclic reaction between enaminones and N-tosylhydrazones. This method allows the synthesis of 2-amino

Highly Site-Selective Metal-Free C-H Acyloxylation of Stable Enamines

A highly site-selective acyloxylation of stable enamines with PhI(OAc)2 under metal-free conditions to afford (E)-vinyl acetate derivatives in good to excellent yields is described. Depending on the judicious choice of the solvent system, either the α- or β-site-selective product could be obtained with high selectivity. For the α-site-selective product, the rearranged amide compound is obtained as the major product. This reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions (room temperature, metal-free, and open-flask) and features a broad substrate scope.

Rh(III)-Catalyzed Enaminone-Directed C-H Coupling with α-Diazo-α-phosphonoacetate for Reactivity Discovery: Fluoride-Mediated Dephosphonation for C-C Coupling Reactions

Rh(III)-catalyzed enaminone-directed C-H coupling with α-diazo-α-phosphonoacetate has been used for the identification of fluoride-mediated dephosphonation C-C coupling reactivity for the synthesis of 4-hydroxy-1-naphthoates. Intermolecular C-C coupling of α-phosphonoacetate and benzaldehyde for (E)-selective α,β-unsaturated ester synthesis has also been achieved.

Metal-free TBAI-catalyzed oxidative Csp3–S bond formation through Csp2–Csp2 bond and S–N bond cleavage: A new route to β-keto-Sulfones

A novel TBAI-catalyzed radical sulfonylation of readily available N,N-dimethylenaminones with sulfonylhydrazides to afford functionalized β-keto-sulfones has been developed. Various functional groups were tolerated well under the present oxidative conditions and the corresponding β-keto-sulfone compounds were obtained in moderate to good yields. Importantly, this transformation offered the first protocol for Csp3–S bond formation by oxidative Csp2–Csp2 bond cleavage in one step.

Co(III)-Catalyzed Enaminone-Directed C-H Amidation for Quinolone Synthesis

We report herein the development of a Co(III)-catalyzed enaminone-directed C-H amidation method for synthetic access to quinolones, an important heterocyclic scaffold for diverse pharmaceutically active structures. The C-H coupling with dioxazolones and subsequent deacylation of an installed amide group allow consecutive C-N coupling generation of quinolones with wide-ranging compatible substituent patterns.

Enaminones as Synthons for a Directed C?H Functionalization: RhIII-Catalyzed Synthesis of Naphthalenes

The use of enaminones as effective synthons for a directed C?H functionalization is reported. Proof-of-concept protocols have been developed for the RhIII-catalyzed synthesis of naphthalenes, based on the coupling of enaminones with either alkynes or α-diazo-β-ketoesters. Two inherently reactive functionalities (hydroxy and aldehyde groups) are integrated into the newly formed cyclic framework and a broad range of substituents are tolerated, rendering target products readily available for further elaboration.
