- Anticancer activity of triazolo-thiadiazole derivatives and inhibition of akt1 and akt2 activation
-
The fusion of 1,2,4-triazole and 1,3,4-thiadiazole rings results in a class of heterocycles compounds with an extensive range of pharmacological properties. A series of 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,2,4-thiadiazoles was synthesized and tested for its enzyme inhibition potential and anticancer activity. The results show that 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,2,4-thiadiazoles display potent anticancer properties in vitro against a panel of cancer cells and in vivo efficacy in HT-29 human colon tumor xenograft in CB17 severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that KA25 and KA39 exhibit time-and concentration-dependent inhibition of Akt Ser-473 phosphorylation. Molecular modeling experiments indicated that 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,2,4-thiadiazoles bind well to the ATP binding site in Akt1 and Akt2. The low acute toxicity combined with in vitro and in vivo anticancer activity render triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazoles KA25, KA26, and KA39 promising cancer therapeutic agents.

- Electrochemical oxidative: Z -selective C(sp2)-H chlorination of acrylamides
-
An electrochemical method for the oxidative Z-selective C(sp2)-H chlorination of acrylamides has been developed. This catalyst and organic oxidant free method is applicable across various substituted tertiary acrylamides, and provides access to a broad range of synthetically useful Z-β-chloroacrylamides in good yields (22 examples, 73% average yield). The orthogonal derivatization of the products was demonstrated through chemoselective transformations and the electrochemical process was performed on gram scale in flow.

- Complex Polyheterocycles and the Stereochemical Reassignment of Pileamartine A via Aza-Heck Triggered Aryl C-H Functionalization Cascades
-
Structurally complex benzo- and spiro-fused N-polyheterocycles can be accessed via intramolecular Pd(0)-catalyzed alkene 1,2-aminoarylation reactions. The method uses N-(pentafluorobenzoyloxy)carbamates as the initiating motif, and this allows aza-Heck-type alkene amino-palladation in advance of C-H palladation of the aromatic component. The chemistry is showcased in the first total synthesis of the complex alkaloid (+)-pileamartine A, which has resulted in the reassignment of its absolute stereochemistry.

- 3,6-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b] thiadiazoles with anticancer activity targeting topoisomerase II alpha
-
Background: Topoisomerase IIα (topIIα) maintains the topology of DNA in order to ensure the proper functioning of numerous DNA processes. Inhibition of topIIα leads to the killing of cancer cells thus constituting such inhibitors as useful tools in cancer therapeutics. Triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives are known for their wide range of pharmacological activities while previous studies have documented their in vitro anticancer activity. The purpose of the current study was to investigate if these chemical compounds can act as topIIα inhibitors in cell-free and cell-based systems. Materials and Methods: The MTT assay was performed in DLD-1, HT-29, and LoVo cancer cells so as to evaluate the antiproliferative activity of KA25, KA26, and KA39 triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives. The KA39 compound was tested as a potential topIIα inhibitor using the plasmid-based topoisomerase II drug screening kit. The inhibitory effect of the three derivatives on topIIα phosphorylation was studied in HT-29 and LoVo cancer cells according to Human Phospho-TOP2A/Topoisomerase II Alpha Cell-Based Phosphorylation ELISA Kit. Moreover, flow cytometry was utilized in order to explore apoptotic induction and cell cycle growth arrest, upon treatment with KA39, in DLD-1 and HT-29 cells, respectively. In silico studies were also carried out for further investigation. Results: All three triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives showed an in vitro antiproliferative effect with the KA39 compound being the most potent one. Our results indicated that KA39 induced both early and late apoptosis as well as cell cycle growth arrest in S phase. In addition, the compound blocked the relaxation of supercoiled DNA while it also inhibited topIIα phosphorylation (upon treatment; P0.001). Conclusion: Among the three triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazole derivatives, KA39 was shown to be the most potent anticancer agent and catalytic inhibitor of topIIα phosphorylation as well.

- Room Temperature Coupling of Aryldiazoacetates with Boronic Acids Enhanced by Blue Light Irradiation
-
A visible-light-promoted photochemical protocol is reported for the coupling of aryldiazoacetates with boronic acids. This photochemical reaction shows great enhancement compared to the same protocol performed in the absence of light. Except for a few cases, the room temperature coupling in the dark (thermal process) generally does not work. When it does, it is likely to also involve free carbenes as key intermediates. Alternatively, photochemical reactions show a broad scope, can be performed under air and tolerate a wide variety of functional groups. Reaction-evolution monitoring, DFT calculations and control experiments have been used to evaluate the main aspects of this intricate mechanistic scenario. Biologically active molecules Adiphenine, Benactyzine and Aprophen have been prepared as examples of synthetic applications.

- Synthesis of Benzo[a]carbazoles and an Indolo[2,3-a]carbazole from 3-Aryltetramic Acids
-
A simple and flexible approach to 3-pyrrolin-2-one fused carbazoles is disclosed. The key step involves the BF3-mediated electrophilic substitution of indoles with N-alkyl-substituted 3-aryltetramic acids, which provides access to indole-substituted 3-pyrrolin-2-ones. Scholl-type oxidative cyclizations of these materials led to the formation of the corresponding 3-pyrrolin-2-one-fused benzo[a]carbazoles and indolo[2,3-a]carbazoles. This work represents the first synthesis of the benzo[a]pyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazol-3(8H)-one ring system, while the indolo[2,3-a]pyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazol-5-one ring system is found in a number of biologically active compounds including the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, staurosporine.

- Higher-order cyclopropenimine superbases: Direct neutral br?nsted base catalyzed michael reactions with α-aryl esters
-
The synthesis and characterization of six new classes of higher-order superbases, including five that incorporate cyclopropenimine functionality, has been achieved. We propose a nomenclature that designates these as the CG2, GC2, PC3, PC1, C3, and GP2 classes of superbases. The pKBH+ values were measured to be between 29.0 and 35.6 in acetonitrile. Linear correlations of ten superbase basicities vs that of their substituents demonstrated the insulating effect of the cyclopropenimine core. The molecular structures of several of these materials were obtained by single-crystal X-ray analysis, revealing interesting aspects of conformational bias and noncovalent organization. The types of superbasic cores and substituents were each reliably shown to affect selectivity for deprotonation over alkylation. Higher-order cyclopropenimine and guanidine superbase stability to hydrolysis was found to correlate to basicity. Finally, a GC2 base was found to catalyze conjugate additions of α-aryl ester pronucleophiles, representing the first report of a neutral Br?nsted base to catalyze such reactions.

- Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of small molecular polyphenols as entry inhibitors against H5N1
-
To find novel compounds against H5N1, three series of known or novel small molecular polyphenols were synthesized and tested in vitro for anti-H5N1 activity. In addition, the preliminary structure-antiviral activity relationships were elaborated. The results showed that some small molecular polyphenols had better anti-H5N1 activity, and could serve as novel virus entry inhibitors against H 5N1, likely targeting to HA2 protein. Noticeably, compound 4a showed the strongest activity against H5N1 among these compounds, and the molecular modeling analysis also suggested that this compound might target to HA2 protein. Therefore, compound 4a is well qualified to serve as a lead compound or scaffold for the further development of H 5N1 entry inhibitor.

- Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel deguelin-based heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) inhibitors targeting proliferation and angiogenesis
-
Deguelin exhibits potent apoptotic and antiangiogenic activities in a variety of transformed cells and cancer cells. Deguelin also exhibits potent tumor suppressive effects in xenograft tumor models for many human cancers. Our initial studies confirmed that deguelin disrupts ATP binding to HSP90 and consequently induces destabilization of its client proteins such as HIF-1α. Interestingly, a fluorescence probe assay revealed that deguelin and its analogues do not compete with ATP binding to the N-terminus of HSP90, unlike most HSP90 inhibitors. To determine the key parts of deguelin that contribute to its potent HSP90 inhibition, as well as its antiproliferative and antiangiogenic activities, we have established a structure-activity relationship (SAR) of deguelin. In the course of these studies, we identified a series of novel and potent HSP90 inhibitors. In particular, analogues 54 and 69, the B- and C-ring-truncated compounds, exhibited excellent antiproliferative activities with IC50 of 140 and 490 nM in the H1299 cell line, respectively, and antiangiogenic activities in zebrafish embryos in a dose dependent manner (0.25-1.25 μM).

- Intramolecular versus intermolecular oxidative couplings of ester tethered di-aryl ethers
-
The oxidative cyclization of 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl 3,4-dimethoxyphenylacetate, through intramolecular biphenyl bond formation, was successful and gave the target seven-membered lactone in good yield (85-86%). All other ester substrates gave biphenyl products or their further oxidized products via intermolecular coupling of their radical cation intermediate with the neutral substrate. It appears that matching of the oxidation potentials and nucleophilicity of the two phenyl rings, the positioning of the ring substituents and the ease of E to Z isomerization about the ester C-O bond are important factors contributing to these product outcomes.

- Synthesis and biological activity of KCB-328 and its analogues: Novel class III antiarrhythmic agents with little reverse frequency dependence
-
A series of 3,4-dimethoxyphenethylamine derivatives was prepared, and their prolongation effects on effective refractory period of contractile response (ERPc) and action potential duration (APD) in isolated guinea-pig papillary muscles at 1 Hz and 3 Hz were examined. SAR studies led to the identification of KCB-328 (51) which is a novel class III antiarrhythmic agent with little reverse frequency dependence.

- Regioselectivity of the Base-Induced Ring Cleavage of 1-Oxygenated Derivatives of Cyclobutabenzene
-
Oxy anions 3 generated from 1,2-dihydrocyclobutabenzen-1-ones 1 through addition of a charged nucleophile or from 1-hydroxy-1,2-dihydrocyclobutabenzenes 2 by deprotonation with base lead to stable products through distal and/or proximal cleavage of the strained four-membered ring via benzyl carbanion 4 and/or aryl carbanion 5. A systematic study of this process reveals the relative stability of the two isomeric carbanions 4 and 5 as a key factor in determining the course of the ring-cleavage reaction. While benzyl carbanions 4 can be trapped with carbon electrophiles, attempts at trapping aryl carbanions 5 with electrophiles other than H+ failed. In protic solvents, the magnesium salt of the tertiary alcohol 2 shows an increased rate of proximal cleavage as compared to its alkali salts. From this, we conclude that, in contrast to benzyl carbanions 4, free aryl carbanions 5 are of transient existence only. Proximal C,C-bond cleavage seems to occur either through protonation of 5 from a fast, reversible equilibrium 3?5 in which 3 strongly predominates, or in protic solvents possibly even through a rate-limiting protonation of 3 at the aromatic C-atom, bypassing free anion 5 altogether. Thus, additional factors other than just the relative stability of isomeric carbanions 4 and 5 are of importance in determining the regiochemistry of the base-induced C,C-bond cleavage in ketones 1 and in alcohols 2.

- Unexpected alkylation reaction of amines, acids and phenols by alkyl (triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetates
-
Reaction of methyl (triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetate in methanol with primary and secondary amines led to N-methylated derivatives. Similarly this mixture reacted with acids, phenol and phthalimide to afford methyl esters, anisole and N-methylphthalimide respectively. Treatment of ketolactam 2 by this mixture under high pressure activation gave the rearranged quinolinone 5.

- A common and general access to berberine and benzo [c] phenanthridine alkaloids
-
The S(RN)1 reactions between o-iodobenzamides and the enolate anion from 2-acetyl homoveratric acid lead to key tricyclic compounds which are easily converted to either berberine or benzo [c] phenanthridine ring systems providing thus a highly-yielding and versatile access to both classes of alkaloids.
