- Development of a bulk enabling route to maraviroc (UK-427,857), a CCR-5 receptor antagonist
-
A bulk enabling synthesis of the CCR-5 receptor antagonist, Maraviroc (UK-427,857) (1), is presented. Synthesis of the three key fragments, β-amino ester 3,4,4-difluorohexanecarboxylic acid (2), and 1,3,4-triazole-substituted tropane fragment 4 are described. Coupling strategies for these fragments are discussed and described, including synthetic challenges, protection strategies, impurity generation, and final scale-up of the developed route to 1.

- Exploration of bivalent ligands targeting putative mu opioid receptor and chemokine receptor CCR5 dimerization
-
Modern antiretroviral therapies have provided HIV-1 infected patients longer lifespans and better quality of life. However, several neurological complications are now being seen in these patients due to HIV-1 associated injury of neurons by infected microglia and astrocytes. In addition, these effects can be further exacerbated with opiate use and abuse. One possible mechanism for such potentiation effects of opiates is the interaction of the mu opioid receptor (MOR) with the chemokine receptor CCR5 (CCR5), a known HIV-1 co-receptor, to form MOR–CCR5 heterodimer. In an attempt to understand this putative interaction and its relevance to neuroAIDS, we designed and synthesized a series of bivalent ligands targeting the putative CCR5–MOR heterodimer. To understand how these bivalent ligands may interact with the heterodimer, biological studies including calcium mobilization inhibition, binding affinity, HIV-1 invasion, and cell fusion assays were applied. In particular, HIV-1 infection assays using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, macrophages, and astrocytes revealed a notable synergy in activity for one particular bivalent ligand. Further, a molecular model of the putative CCR5–MOR heterodimer was constructed, docked with the bivalent ligand, and molecular dynamics simulations of the complex was performed in a membrane-water system to help understand the biological observation.

- Asymmetric Mannich Reaction and Construction of Axially Chiral Sulfone-Containing Styrenes in One Pot from α-Amido Sulfones Based on the Waste-Reuse Strategy
-
A simultaneous asymmetric Mannich reaction and the construction of axially chiral sulfone-containing styrenes in one pot from α-amido sulfones based on the waste-reuse strategy was demonstrated. A series of chiral β-amino diesters and axially chiral sulfone-containing styrenes with various functional groups were synthesized in good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities under mild conditions. In addition, this protocol has been successfully applied to synthesize the anti-HIV drug Maraviroc and chiral trichloro derivatives.
