As a member of the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family, STAT3 plays a critical role in several biological pathways such as cell proliferation, migration, survival, and differentiation. Due to abnormal continuous activation in tumors, inhibition of STAT3 has emerged as an attractive approach for the treatment of various cancer cells. Herein, we report a series of novel STAT3 inhibitors based on benzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxide scaffold and evaluated their anticancer potency. Among them, compound 8b exhibited the best activity against cancer cells. Compound 8b induced apoptosis and blocked the cell cycle. Meanwhile, 8b reduced intracellular ROS content and caused the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. Further research revealed that 8b significantly blocked STAT3 phosphorylation and STAT3-dependent dual-luciferase reporter gene experiments showed that compound 8b has a marked inhibition of STAT3-mediated Firefly luciferase activity. Molecular modeling studies revealed compound 8b occupied the pocket well with the SH2 domain in a favorable conformation.

Starting from 1 (MEN 14268), a selective tachykinin NK2 receptor antagonist with an interesting in vitro pharmacological profile, a family of numerous antagonists was obtained through an optimization process focused on iterated structural modifications. The effects of the introduction of a wide variety of substituents on the lipophilic aromatic part of the molecule and the modulation of the structural constraint through the insertion of different achiral α,α-dialkylamino acids were investigated. In particular, aromatic and benzofused heteroaromatic moieties were introduced at the pseudo-N-terminal residue to replace the 2-benzothiophene moiety, and a systematic investigation of the best positioning of substituents onto the aromatic platform was reported for the benzothiophene core. Studies on the modulation of the length and the rigidity of the hydrophilic pseudo-C-terminal pendant are presented. Many heteroaliphatic groups are well tolerated by the receptor in this part of the ligand. The product 48f (MEN15596), bearing a methyl substituent on the benzothiophene and a tetrahydropyranylmethylpiperidine pendant, was finally selected for its good in vivo activity after intravenous, intraduodenal, and oral administration in guinea pigs.

The 7-chloro and 7-nitro derivatives of benzothiophene and 1,2-benzisothiazole have been prepared from readily available precursors, which for each substituent are common to both ring systems. 7-Chlorobenzothiophene has been obtained from 3-chloro-2-mercaptobenzoic acid via 7-chlorobenzothiophen-3(2H)-one, or from 2,3-dichlorobenzaldehyde, either via β-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-α-mercaptoacrylic acid (16) or, preferably, via 7-chlorobenzothiophene-2-carboxylic acid.Hexamethylphosphoric triamide is a particularly useful solvent in which to effect the selective nucleophilic replacement of the 2-chloro substituent in 2,3-dichlorobenzaldehyde. 7-Chloro-1,2-benzisothiazole is available by treatment of 3-chloro-2-mercaptobenzaldehyde with chloramine (57percent), or by heating 2,3-dichlorobenzaldehyde with sulphur and aqueous ammonia (46percent). 7-Nitrobenzothiophene has been obtained by treatment of 2-bromo-3-nitrobenzaldehyde with mercaptoacetic acid under alkaline conditions, followed by decarboxylation of the resulting 2-carboxylic acid.Cyclisation of 2-(n- or t-butylthio)-3-nitrobenzaldoxime with polyphosphoric acid gives 7-nitro-1,2-benzisothiazole in high yield. 3-Nitro-2-t-bytylthiobenzaldehyde behaves unexpectedly with chloramine, to give what is believed to be 7-nitro-2-t-butyl-1,2-benzothiazolium chloride (24) (73percent).
