- Asymmetric synthesis of 7-aza-phomopsolide E and its C-4 epimer
-
A flexible, enantioselective route to highly functionalized α,β-unsaturated δ-lactones has been applied to the synthesis of 7-aza-phomopsolide E and its C-4 epimer. This approach relies on the application of the Noyori asymmetric hydrogenation of furyl ketone to produce the secondary furyl alcohol in high enantioexcess, which can be stereoselectively transformed into α,β-unsaturated-δ-lactones by a short, highly diastereoselective oxidation and reduction sequence. DCC and acid chloride couplings were used to introduce the side chains of the two natural product analogues.

- Synthesis and characterization of highly conjugated, chiral bridging ligands
-
This paper describes the synthesis of four chiral derivatives of the electronically highly conjugated tetra-2-pyridylpyrazine (TPPZ) bridging ligand, which are denoted (R)- and (S)-4,5- and 5,6-pineno-tetra-2-pyridylpyrazine (PTPPZ). Preparation of these ligands was undertaken through the use of commercially available, enantiomerically pure (1R)- and (1S)-α-pinene, which was functionalized and subsequently employed in a Kroehnke pyridine synthesis involving a furan-substituted pyridinium salt to yield a chiral, furan-substituted pyridyl intermediate. Oxidative degradation and subsequent reduction of this furan led to a chiral, substituted 2-pyridylaldehyde, which underwent a pyridoin condensation followed by cyclization to produce the final PTPPZ ligands.

- High Chemo-/Stereoselectivity for Synthesis of Polysubstituted Monofluorinated Pyrimidyl Enol Ether Derivatives
-
A novel intramolecular Smiles rearrangement of α-fluoro-β-keto-pyrimidylsulfones (usually used as a carbon nucleophile) was developed, providing a versatile avenue for synthesis of tri/tetra-substituted monofluorinated pyrimidyl enol ethers. Among these, diverse (Z)-monofluorovinylsulfones and sulfinates were efficiently assembled by adding extra electrophile and fine-tuning reaction conditions. The process is triggered by a keto-enol tautomerism from enol oxyanion to pyrimidine 2-carbon, completely different from the classical carbon nucleophilic addition reaction approach.

- Base-Catalyzed Intramolecular Defluorination/O-Arylation Reaction for the Synthesis of 3-Fluoro-1,4-oxathiine 4,4-Dioxide

A novel process involving base-catalyzed intramolecular defluorination/O-arylation of readily available α-fluoro-β-one-sulfones was realized and provided a series of 3-fluoro-1,4-oxathiine 4,4-dioxide derivatives in good to excellent yields. Unlike traditional defluorination reactions with stoichiometric base as the deacid reagent, this process is triggered by a catalytic amount of base (TMG: tetramethylguanidine) and molecular sieves serve as both an adsorbent to remove HF acid and an activator to assist C-F bond cleavage.

Oxidation potential-guided electrochemical radical-radical cross-coupling reactions between N-heteroarenes and sodium sulfinates have been established. Thus, simple cyclic voltammetry measurement of substrates predicts the likelihood of successful radical-radical coupling reactions, allowing the simple and direct synthetic access to 3-sulfonylated imidazopyridines and indolizines. The developed electrochemical radical-radical cross-coupling reactions to sulfonylated N-heteroarenes boast the green synthetic nature of the reactions that are oxidant- and metal-free.

- Enantioselective Synthesis of Nitrogen-Nitrogen Biaryl Atropisomers via Copper-Catalyzed Friedel-Crafts Alkylation Reaction
-
Nitrogen-nitrogen bonds containing motifs are ubiquitous in natural products and bioactive compounds. However, the atropisomerism arising from a restricted rotation around an N-N bond is largely overlooked. Here, we describe a method to access the first enantioselective synthesis of N-N biaryl atropisomers via a Cu-bisoxazoline-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction. A wide range of axially chiral N-N bisazaheterocycle compounds were efficiently prepared in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities via desymmetrization and kinetic resolution. Heating experiments showed that the axially chiral bisazaheterocycle products have high rotational barriers.

- Development of triazolothiadiazine derivatives as highly potent tubulin polymerization inhibitors: Structure-activity relationship, in vitro and in vivo study
-
Based on our prior work, we reported the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of fifty-two new triazolothiadiazine-based analogues of CA-4 and their preliminary structure-activity relationship. Among synthesized compounds, Iab was found to be the most potent derivative possessing IC50 values ranging from single-to double-digit nanomolar in vitro, and also exhibited excellent selectivity over the normal human embryonic kidney HEK-293 cells (IC50 > 100 μM). Further mechanistic studies revealed that Iab significantly blocked tubulin polymerization and disrupted the intracellular microtubule network of A549 cells. Moreover, Iab induced G2/M cell cycle arrest by regulation of p-cdc2 and cyclin B1 expressions, and caused cell apoptosis through up-regulating cleaved PARP and cleaved caspase-3 expressions, and down-regulating of Bcl-2. Importantly, in vivo, Iab effectively suppressed tumor growth of A549 lung cancers in a xenograft mouse model without obvious signs of toxicity, confirming its potential as a promising candidate for cancer treatment.

- Studies on non-steroidal inhibitors of aromatase enzyme; 4-(aryl/heteroaryl)-2-(pyrimidin-2-yl)thiazole derivatives
-
Steroidal and non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors target the suppression of estrogen biosynthesis in the treatment of breast cancer. Researchers have increasingly focused on developing non-steroidal derivatives for their potential clinical use avoiding steroidal side-effects. Non-steroidal derivatives generally have planar aromatic structures attached to the azole ring system. One part of this ring system comprises functional groups that inhibit aromatization through the coordination of the haem group of the aromatase enzyme. Replacement of the triazole ring system and development of aromatic/cyclic structures of the side chain can increase selectivity over aromatase enzyme inhibition. In this study, 4-(aryl/heteroaryl)-2-(pyrimidin-2-yl)thiazole derivatives were synthesized and physical analyses and structural determination studies were performed. The IC50 values were determined by a fluorescence-based aromatase inhibition assay and compound 1 (4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(pyrimidine-2-yl)thiazole) were found potent inhibitor of enzyme (IC50:0.42 nM). Then, their antiproliferative activity over MCF-7 and HEK-293 cell lines was evaluated using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Compounds 1, 7, 8, 13, 15, 18, 21 were active against MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Lastly, a series of docking experiments were undertaken to analyze the crystal structure of human placental aromatase and identify the possible interactions between the most active structure and the active site.

In order to test the mechanism of cell death, we exposed castration resistant prostate cancer cell line (C4-2) to compounds 16l and 16s, which resulted in increased levels of cleaved PARP1 and AO/EB staining, indicating that β-carbolinium salts induce apoptosis in these cells. Additionally, the most potent β-carbolines 16l and 16s were found to inhibit tubulin polymerization.

Control of stereochemistry in photocycloaddition reactions remains a substantial challenge; almost all successful catalytic examples to date have involved [2 + 2] photocycloadditions of enones.

These results show that the dual-catalyst strategy developed in our laboratory broadens synthetic chemists' access to classes of photochemical cycloadditions that have not previously been feasible in enantioselective form.

To develop novel neuroprotective agents, a library of novel arylalkenylpropargylamines was synthesized and tested for inhibitory activities against monoamine oxidases. From this, a number of highly potent and selective monoamine oxidase B inhibitors were identified. Selected compounds were also tested for neuroprotection in in vitro studies with PC-12 cells treated with 6-OHDA and rotenone, respectively. It was observed that some of the compounds tested yielded a marked increase in survival in PC-12 cells treated with the neurotoxins. This indicates that these propargylamines are able to confer protection against the effects of the toxins and may also be considered as novel disease-modifying anti-Parkinsonian agents, which are much needed for the therapy of Parkinson's disease.

- Synthesis and structure-activity relationship of aminoarylthiazole derivatives as correctors of the chloride transport defect in cystic fibrosis
-
Abstract The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a chloride channel present in the membrane of epithelial cells. Mutations affecting the CFTR gene cause cystic fibrosis (CF), a multi-organ severe disease. The most common CF mutation, F508del, impairs the processing and activity (gating) of CFTR protein. Other mutations, like G551D, only cause a gating defect. Processing and gating defects can be targeted by small molecules called generically correctors and potentiators, respectively. Aminoarylthiazoles (AATs) represent an interesting class of compounds that includes molecules with dual activity, as correctors and potentiators. With the aim to improve the activity profile of AATs, we have now designed and synthesized a library of novel compounds in order to establish an initial SAR that may provide indications about the chemical groups that are beneficial or detrimental for rescue activity. The new compounds were tested as correctors and potentiators in CFBE41o-expressing F508del-CFTR using a functional assay. A dual active compound, AAT-4a, characterized by improved efficacy and marked synergy when combined with the corrector VX-809 has been identified. Moreover, by computational methods, a possible binding site for AATs in nucleotide binding domain NBD1 has been detected. These results will direct the synthesis of new analogues with possibly improved activity.

In order to develop a potent anti-tumor agent that can target both cancer stem cells and the bulk of tumor cells, a series of 2-((benzimidazol-2-yl)thio)-1-arylethan-1-ones 5a-o was synthesized. All compounds were evaluated for their anti-proliferative activity towards colon HT-29 cancer cell line. In addition, their inhibitory effect against cell surface expression of CD133, a potent cancer stem cells (CSCs) marker, in the same cells was evaluated by flow cytometry at 10 μM. Compound 5l emerged as the most active anti-proliferative analog against HT-29 (IC50 Combining double low line 18.83 ± 1.37 μM), that almost equipotent as 5-fluorouracil (IC50 Combining double low line 15.83 ± 1.63 μM) with 50.11 ± 4.05% inhibition effect on CD133 expression, suggested dual targeted effect. Also, compounds 5h, 5j, 5k and 5m-o inhibited the expression of CD133 with more than 50%. The SAR study pointed out the significance of substitution of the pendent phenyl group with lipophilic electron-donating groups or replacing it by 2-thienyl or 2-furyl groups.

- One-pot combination of enzyme and Pd nanoparticle catalysis for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure 1,2-amino alcohols
-
One-pot combinations of sequential catalytic reactions can offer practical and ecological advantages over classical multi-step synthesis schemes. In this context, the integration of enzymatic and chemo-catalytic transformations holds particular potential for efficient and selective reaction sequences that would not be possible using either method alone. Here, we report the one-pot combination of alcohol dehydrogenase-catalysed asymmetric reduction of 2-azido ketones and Pd nanoparticle-catalysed hydrogenation of the resulting azido alcohols, which gives access to both enantiomers of aromatic 1,2-amino alcohols in high yields and excellent optical purity (ee >99%). Furthermore, we demonstrate the incorporation of an upstream azidolysis and a downstream acylation step into the one-pot system, thus establishing a highly integrated synthesis of the antiviral natural product (S)-tembamide in 73% yield (ee >99%) over 4 steps. Avoiding the purification and isolation of intermediates in this synthetic sequence leads to an unprecedentedly low ecological footprint, as quantified by the E-factor and solvent demand.

- Predictable and site-selective functionalization of poly(hetero)arene compounds by palladium catalysis
-
The challenge of achieving selective and predictable functionalizations at C-H bonds with complex poly(hetero)aromatic substrates was addressed by two different approaches. Site-selectivity can be obtained by applying various reaction conditions that are (hetero)arene specific to substrates that contain indoles, pyridine N-oxide, and polyfluorinated benzenes. An experimental classification of electron-rich heteroarenes based on their reactivity toward palladium-catalyzed C-Hfunctionalization was established, the result of which correlated well with the order of reactivity predicted by the DFT-calculated concerted metalation-deprotonation (CMD) pathway. Model substrates containing two reactive heteroarenes were then reacted under general reaction conditions to demonstrate the applicability this reactivity chart in predicting the regioselectivity of the palladium-catalyzed direct arylation and benzylation reactions.

- One-pot tandem copper-catalyzed library synthesis of 1-thiazolyl-1,2,3- triazoles as anticancer agents
-
One-pot multicomponent synthesis to assemble compounds has been an efficient method for constructing a compound library. We have developed one-pot tandem copper-catalyzed azidation and CuAAC reactions that afford 1-thiazolyl-1,2,3-triazoles with anticancer activity. By utilizing this one-pot synthetic strategy, we constructed a library of 1-thiazolyl-1,2,3-triazoles in search of the potent lead compound. Furthermore, 1-thiazolyl-1,2,3-triazoles were evaluated for anticancer activity against the multidrug-resistant cancer cells MES-SA/Dx5. Most of the 1-thiazolyl-1,2,3-triazoles revealed cytotoxic effect against cancer cells at micromolar to low micromolar range. Testing some of the most potent compounds (5{4,2-4} and 5{5,1-3}) against the normal cell line Vero showed no significant toxicity (except 5{4,2}) to normal cells. This result indicates that compounds 5{4,3-4} and 5{5,1-3} possessed good potency and selectivity to cancer cells over normal cells.

- Synthesis and cytotoxicity studies of thiazole analogs of the anticancer marine alkaloid dendrodoine

The synthesis and cytotoxicity evaluation of 2-N,N-dimethylamino-5-indol-3- oylthiazole as the first member of a new portfolio of the thiazole analogs of the cytotoxic marine alkaloid dendrodoine (3-N,N-dimethylamino-5-indol-3-oyl-1, 2,4-thiadiazole) is described. Exploiting the opportunity arising from the replacement of the thiadiazole ring of dendrodoine by a thiazole ring which allowed further substitution on the five-membered ring, 2-N,N-dimethylamino-5- indoI-3-oyl-4-phenylthiazole has also been synthesized. Structural diversity is further extended by synthesizing 5-fur-2-oyl- and 5-coumarin-3-oyl-2-N,N- dimethylaminothiazoles, as well as 5-fur-2-oyl, 5-thiophen-2-oyl, 5-(1-methylbenzimidazol-2-oyl) and 5-benzothiazol-2-oyl derivatives of 2-N,N-dimethylamino-4-phenylthiazoles. Among these new N,N- dimethylaminothiazoles, 2-N,N-dimethylamino-5-indol-3-oyl-4-phenylthiazole shows significant in vitro cytotoxicity against a panel of human cancer cell lines.

- Unusual fluorescent properties of novel fluorophores, 6-aryl-3,4-diphenyl-α-pyrone derivatives
-
Novel fluorophores, 6-aryl-3,4-diphenyl-α-pyrones, were synthesized and their spectroscopic properties investigated in the form of evaporated films on plain glass slides, as well as in the solid and solution states. An electron-donating aryl group on the 6-position of the pyrones causes a red-shift in the absorption and fluorescent maxima. In the solid states, they show intense blue-to-orange fluorescence, but not in solution. This unusual fluorescent property is caused by fixing the 6-aryl group of the pyrones, and is the result of molecular packing. These interactions induce a pathway for radiative decay, which is associated with intense fluorescence emission only in the solid state.
