- Design, synthesis and bioactivity evaluation of 4,6-disubstituted pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine derivatives as mnk and HDAC inhibitors
-
Both HDACs and Mnks play important role in translating multiple oncogenic signaling pathways during oncogenesis. As HDAC and Mnk are highly expressed in a variety of tumors; thus simultaneous inhibit HDAC and Mnk can increase the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and provide a new way of inhibiting tumor growth. Based on the previous work and the merge pharmacophore method; we designed and synthesized a series of 4,6-disubstituted pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine derivatives as HDAC and Mnk dual inhibitors. Among them; compound A12 displayed good HDAC and Mnk inhibitory activity. In vitro antiproliferative assay; compound A12 exhibited the best antiproliferative activity against human prostate cancer PC-3 cells. Docking study revealed that the pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine framework and hydroxamic acid motif of compound A12 were essential for maintaining the activity of HDAC and Mnk. These result indicated that A12 was a potent Mnk /HDAC inhibitor and will be further researched.

- Coordination framework hosts consisting of 4-pyridyl-substituted carboxylic acid (PCA) dimers and 1D chains of Ni2+ and SCN-: A rational structural extension toward coordination framework hosts with large rectangular cavities
-
For the expansion of a rectangular cavity (RC) defined by two isonicotinic acid (isoH) dimers as bridging ligands and two SCN bridges, we conducted a structural extension based on the elongation of the bridging ligands by the replacement of isoH with longer 4-pyridyl-substituted carboxylic acid (PCA). For this purpose, the following three PCAs have been employed: trans-3-(4-pyridyl) propenoic acid (acrylH), 4-(4-pyridyl)benzoic acid (pybenH), and trans-3-(4-(4-pyridyl)phenyl)propenoic acid (pppeH). Self-assembly of Ni 2+, SCN-, and each of four PCAs involving isoH, acrylH, pybenH, and pppeH in the presence of an aromatic guest gave four inclusion compounds formulated as [Ni(SCN)2(isoH)2]·1/ 2(benz[a]anthracene) (1), [Ni(SCN)2(acrylH)2]·1/ 2(benz[a]anthracene) (2), [Ni(SCN)2(pybenH)2] ·(pyrene) (3), and [Ni(SCN)2(pppeH)2] 3/2·(benz[a]anthracene) (4). X-ray crystal structural determination of 1-4 revealed that the proposed structural extension was successful. Their crystal structures are layered structures of two-dimensional (2D) grid-type coordination frameworks (2D host layers) framed with bridging ligands of the corresponding PCA dimers and 1D chains consisting of Ni 2+ ions and μ1,3-SCN- ions. The lengths of the PCA dimers are 12.269(5) A (isoH dimer), 16.890(4) A (acrylH dimer), 20.89(2) A (pybenH dimer), 25.387(3) A (pppeH dimer A), and 25.527-(4) A (pppeH dimer B). Each 2D host layer has RCs defined by the two corresponding PCA dimers and the two SCN bridges. The dimensions of RCs are expanded in proportion to the increase in the lengths of the PCA dimers: 29.52 x 5.60-7.20 A2 (4) > 24.95 x 5.46-7.38 A2 (3) > 20.88 x 5.49-7.25 A2 (2) > 16.41 x 5.53-7.43 A2 (1). These expansions reflect the number of aromatic guests that can be included in RCs. RC of 1 include only one molecule of benz[a]anthracene, whereas RCs of 3 or 4 includes two molecules of pyrene or benz[a]anthracene, respectively. Comparison of the lengths between the PCA dimers and 4,4′-bipyridine-type ligands demonstrated that a design strategy - the preparation of a bridging ligand through self-assembly of two PCAs - is both efficient and particularly suitable for the preparation of very long bridging ligands.

- An Efficient Solvent-Free Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Cinnamamides by Amidation Reaction Using Phenylboronic Acid/Lewis Base Co-catalytic System
-
A microwave-assisted dehydrative amide condensation reaction is reported as an efficient access to cinnamamide derivatives under solvent-free conditions. This protocol between conjugated carboxylic acids and amines is based on the use of a co-catalytic system, including the presence of the commercially available phenylboronic acid and 4-(N, N-dimethylamino)pyridine N-oxide (DMAPO), with a complete chemoselectivity in favor of the corresponding α,β-unsaturated amides. The implementation of the reaction needs no special precaution, and less reactive amines, such as substituted anilines, are also efficient under these conditions. A series of novel conjugated amides have been evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against several human cancer cell lines.
