Hydroxamates as a potent skeleton for the development of metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors

Bacterial resistance caused by metallo-β-lactamases (MβLs) has become an emerging public health threat, and the development of MβLs inhibitor is an effective way to overcome the resistance. In this study, thirteen novel O-aryloxycarbonyl hydroxamates were constructed and assayed against MβLs. The obtained molecules specifically inhibited imipenemase-1 (IMP-1) and New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1, exhibiting an IC50 value in the range of 0.10–18.42 and 0.23–22.33?μM, respectively. The hydroxamate 5 was found to be the most potent inhibitor, with an IC50 of 0.1 and 0.23?μM using meropenem and cefazolin as substrates. ICP-MS analysis showed that 5 did not coordinate to the Zn(II) ions at the active site of IMP-1, while the rapid dilution, thermal shift and MALDI-TOF assays revealed that the hydroxamate formed a covalent bond with the enzyme. Cytotoxicity assays indicated that the hydroxamates have low toxicity in MCF-7 cells. This work provided a potent scaffold for the development of MβLs inhibitors.

Ruthenium-catalyzed intramolecular arene C(sp2)-H amidation for synthesis of 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1 H)-ones

We report the [Ru(p-cymene)(l-proline)Cl] ([Ru1])-catalyzed cyclization of 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones to form dihydroquinoline-2-ones in excellent yields with excellent regioselectivity via a formal intramolecular arene C(sp2)-H amidation. The reactions of the 2- and 4-substituted aryl dioxazolones proceeds initially through spirolactamization via electrophilic amidation at the arene site, which is para or ortho to the substituent. A Hammett correlation study showed that the spirolactamization is likely to occur by electrophilic nitrenoid attack at the arene, which is characterized by a negative ρ value of -0.73.

Visible-Light Induced C(sp2)?H Amidation with an Aryl–Alkyl σ-Bond Relocation via Redox-Neutral Radical–Polar Crossover

We report an approach for the intramolecular C(sp2)?H amidation of N-acyloxyamides under photoredox conditions to produce δ-benzolactams with an aryl-alkyl σ-bond relocation. Computational studies on the designed reductive single electron transfer strategy led us to identify N-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl] group as the most effective amidyl radical precursor. Upon the formation of an azaspirocyclic radical intermediate by the selective ipso-addition with outcompeting an ortho-attack, radical–polar crossover was then rationalized to lead to the rearomative ring-expansion with preferential C?C bond migration.

Room Temperature Benzofused Lactam Synthesis Enabled by Cobalt(III)-Catalyzed C(sp2)?H Amidation

Benzofused lactams, especially indolin-2-one and dihydroquinolin-2-one are popular structural motives in durgs and natural products. Herein, we developed a room temperature and robust synthesis of benzofused lactams through cobalt(III)-catalyzed C(sp

Diphenylmethylene hydroxamic acids as selective class IIa histone deacetylase inhibitors

We have identified a series of diphenylmethylene hydroxamic acids as novel and selective HDAC class IIa inhibitors. The original hit, N-hydroxy-2,2-diphenylacetamide (6), has sub-micromolar class IIa HDAC inhibitory activity, while the rigidified oxygen a
