- Isothiocyanates and Glucosinolates from Sisymbrium officinale (L.) Scop. (“the Singers’ Plant”): Isolation and in vitro assays on the somatosensory and pain receptor TRPA1 channel
-
Sisymbrium officinale (L.) Scop. is a wild common plant of the Brassicaceae family. It is known as “the singers’ plant” for its traditional use in treating aphonia and vocal disability. Despite its wide use in herbal preparations, the molecular mechanism of action of S. officinale extracts is not known. The plant is rich in glucosinolates and isothiocyanates, which are supposed to be its active compounds. Some members of this family, in particular allylisothiocyanate, are strong agonists of the transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel, which is involved in the somatosensory perception of pungency as well as in the nociception pathway of inflammatory pain. This study aims to isolate the glucosinolates and isothiocianates from fresh S. officinale to identify the major components and test their activity in in vitro assays with a cloned TRPA1 channel. Samples of cultivated S. officinale have been extracted and the active compounds isolated by column chromatography, HPLC and PTLC. The main components glucoputranjivin, isopropylisothiocyanate and 2-buthylisothiocianate have been tested on TRPA1. The glucosinolates glucoputranjivin and sinigrin turned out to be inactive, while isopropylisothiocyanate and 2-buthylisothiocyanate are potent agonists of TRPA1, with an EC50 in the range of the high potency natural agonists identified so far for this somatosensory channel.

- Process development and multikilogram syntheses of XL228 utilizing a regioselective isoxazole formation and a selective SNAr reaction to a pyrimidine core
-
Route scouting, process development, and multikilogram syntheses of an IGF-1R/Src/Bcr-Abl inihibitor are reported. Key aspects of the developed route are a regioselective [3 + 2] isoxazole formation on a pyrimidine core and a selective SNAr addition of an aryl amine to a symmetrical dichloro substituted pyrimidine. The route contains six synthetic steps and was demonstrated twice on scale, delivering 4.6 and 11.2 kg (25% and 16% overall yield), for Phase I clinical studies.

- Stereospecific 1,4-Metallate Shift Enables Stereoconvergent Synthesis of Ketoximes
-
Reported herein is a stereospecific 1,4-metallate rearrangement for single-geometry ketoxime synthesis from oxime chlorides and arylboronic acids. This strategy exhibits broad substrate scope with excellent stereoselectivity under mild reaction conditions. In comparison with the conventional approaches, each configuration of unsymmetric diaryl oximes, as well as the thermodynamically less stable Z isomer of aryl alkyl ketoximes can be selectively and exclusively obtained. The reactivities of unsymmetric diaryl oximes and the Z isomer of aryl alkyl oximes, a class of underexplored molecules, enables efficient access to the corresponding isoquinolines, isoquinoline N-oxides, and amides having a single configuration.

- An Efficient One–pot Procedure for the Direct Preparation of 4,5-Dihydroisoxazoles from Amides
-
A Mo(CO)6 (molybdenumhexacarbonyl) catalyzed reductive functionalization of amides to afford 5-amino substituted 4,5-dihydroisoxazoles is presented. The reduction of amides generates reactive enamines, which upon the addition of hydroximinoyl chlorides and base undergoes a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction that gives access to the desired heterocyclic compounds. The transformation of amides is highly chemoselective and tolerates functional groups such as nitro, nitriles, esters, and ketones. Furthermore, a versatile scope of 4,5-dihydroisoxazoles derived from a variety of hydroximinoyl chlorides and amides is demonstrated. (Figure presented.).

- 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of uracil derivatives with nitrile oxides: Synthesis of [1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,5-c]pyrimidine-5,7(6H)-dione derivatives
-
An efficient method of synthesizing bicyclic fused [1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,5-c]pyrimidine-5,7(6H)-dione derivatives was developed through a [3 + 2] cycloaddition of uracil derivatives and nitrile oxides. In the one step reaction, C[sbnd]N and C[sbnd]O bonds were constructed, the target compounds were efficiently obtained in good yields. The method represents a valuable way to obtain highly functional fused bicyclic heterocycle derivatives in a simple, rapid and practical manner. The method fusing bicyclic heterocycles can be applied for modification of uracil analogues that may have potential biological activities.

- Synthesis and antiproliferative evaluation of 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazoles containing flurophenyl and trifluoromethanephenyl moieties
-
An efficient 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition method was performed for the synthesis of a series of monofluoro- and trifluoromethane-3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazoles. This efficient cycloaddition method was to react hydrazonoyl hydrochlorides with a series of aldehydes in the presence of NEt3 as catalytic basic agent to provide the corresponding product in 28-94%. Their growth inhibitory results against cancer cells indicated that some of the fluorine- and trifluoromethane-containing compounds could effectively inhibit the growth of NCI-H226 and T-cell leukemia (Jurkat) cells. Among the compounds, trifluoromethane-containing 1,2,4-triazoles possessed the five-membered ring groups on the C-5 position of the triazolic ring, including cyclopentyl, 3-furyl, 3-thienyl, and 2-pyrrolyl, possessed the significant inhibitory activity for NCI-H226 cancer cells.

- Unexpected C-C bond cleavage: Synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-ones from amidoximes with pentafluorophenyl or trifluoromethyl anion acting as leaving group
-
An unexpected C-C bond cleavage has been observed on pentafluorobenzoylamidoximes under mild basic conditions. This observation has been exploited to develop a new synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-ones from amidoximes using pentafluorobenzoyl chloride or trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA) as a double acylating agent. The pentafluorophenyl anion and the trifluoromethyl anion acted as leaving groups in this transformation.

"Chemical Equation Presented" A variety of substituted benzisoxazoles has been prepared by the [3 + 2] cycloaddition of nitrile oxides and arynes. Both components, being highly reactive intermediates, have been generated in situ by fluoride anion from readily prepared aryne precursors and chlorooximes, The reaction scope is quite general, affording a novel, direct route to functionalized benzisoxazoles under mild reaction conditions

- Improving the nicotinic pharmacophore with a series of (isoxazole)methylene-1-azacyclic compounds: Synthesis, structure-activity relationship, and molecular modeling
-
A series of (isoxazole)methylene-1-azacyclic compounds was prepared. The compounds were tested for affinity to central nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) and central muscarinic receptors. The compounds covered a broad range of affinities for the nAChRs (IC50 = 0.32 to > 1000 nM), with selectivities for the nAChRs over the muscarinic receptors in the range of 3- 183. The high-affinity compound (Z)-26 (3-(4-methyl-5-isoxazolyl)methylene-1- azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, IC50 = 3.2 nM) having only one energy minimum was used as the reference structure in a computational study. This ligand has enabled definition of an important distance parameter, and the existence of this parameter was supported by showing that other potent nicotinic ligands (for example, nicotine and epibatidine) fit the model.
