- Site-Selective C–H Functionalization of (Hetero)Arenes via Transient, Non-symmetric Iodanes
-
Fosu, Hambira, and colleagues describe the direct C–H functionalization of medicinally relevant arenes or heteroarenes. This strategy is enabled by transient generation of reactive, non-symmetric iodanes from anions and PhI(OAc)2. The site-selective incorporation of Cl, Br, OMs, OTs, and OTf to complex molecules, including within medicines and natural products, can be conducted by the operationally simple procedure included herein. A computational model for predicting site selectivity is also included. The discovery of new medicines is a time- and labor-intensive process that frequently requires over a decade to complete. A major bottleneck is the synthesis of drug candidates, wherein each complex molecule must be prepared individually via a multi-step synthesis, frequently requiring a week of effort per molecule for thousands of candidates. As an alternate strategy, direct, post-synthetic functionalization of a lead candidate could enable this diversification in a single operation. In this article, we describe a new method for direct manipulation of drug-like molecules by incorporation of motifs with either known pharmaceutical value (halides) or that permit subsequent conversion (pseudo-halides) to medicinally relevant analogs. This user-friendly strategy is enabled by combining commercial iodine reagents with salts and acids. We expect this simple method for selective, post-synthetic incorporation of molecular diversity will streamline the discovery of new medicines. A strategy for C–H functionalization of arenes and heteroarenes has been developed to allow site-selective incorporation of various anions, including Cl, Br, OMs, OTs, and OTf. This approach is enabled by in situ generation of reactive, non-symmetric iodanes by combining anions and bench-stable PhI(OAc)2. The utility of this mechanism is demonstrated via para-selective chlorination of medicinally relevant arenes, as well as site-selective C–H chlorination of heteroarenes. Spectroscopic, computational, and competition experiments describe the unique nature, reactivity, and selectivity of these transient, unsymmetrical iodanes.

- NaBH4-TMEDA and a palladium catalyst as efficient regio- and chemoselective system for the hydrodehalogenation of halogenated heterocycles
-
The pair NaBH4-TMEDA as hydride source and a palladium catalyst in THF prove to be an efficient system for the hydrodehalogenation of halogenated heterocycles with one or more heteroatoms. In general, Pd(OAc) 2-PPh3 rapidly hydrodehalogenates reactive halo-heterocycles such as bromo-pyridines, -quinolines, -thiophenes, -indoles, -imidazoles, etc., at room temperature in very good yields, whereas in most cases PdCl2(dppf) reduces less reactive halides such as chloro-pyridines, -quinolines, -pyrimidines and bromo-indoles, -benzofurans, etc. Moreover, PdCl2(tbpf) shows to be even more active removing the 2- and 5-chlorine from both thiophene and thiazole rings. The reaction conditions tolerate various functional groups, allowing highly chemoselective reactions in the presence of halide, ester, alkyne, alkene and nitrile substituents. Moreover, with a proper selection of the catalyst it is also possible to obtain a good control in the regioselective hydrodehalogenation of a variety of polyhalogenated substrates.

- BICYCLYLARYL-ARYL-AMINE COMPOUNDS AND THEIR USE
-
The present invention pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds, and more specifically to certain bicyclylaryl-aryl-amines compounds of the following formula (referred to herein as BCAA compounds), which, inter alia, inhibit Checkpoint Kinase 1 (CHK1) kinase function. The present invention also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, both in vitro and in vivo, to inhibit CHK1 kinase function, and in the treatment of diseases and conditions that are mediated by CHK1, that are ameliorated by the inhibition of CHK1 kinase function, etc., including proliferative conditions such as cancer, etc., optionally in combination with another agent, for example, (a) a DNA topoisomerase I or II inhibitor; (b) a DNA damaging agent; (c) an antimetabolite or TS inhibitor; (d) a microtubule targeted agent; and (e) ionising radiation: (I).

- In vitro structure-activity relationship and in vivo characterization of 1-(aryl)-3-(4-(amino)benzyl)urea transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 antagonists
-
The synthesis and structure-activity relationship of 1-(aryl)-3-(4-(amino) benzyl)urea transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) antagonists are described. A variety of cyclic amine substituents are well tolerated at the 4-position of the benzyl group on compounds containing either an isoquinoline or indazole heterocyclic core. These compounds are potent antagonists of capsaicin activation of the TRPV1 receptor in vitro. Analogues, such as compound 45, have been identified that have good in vivo activity in animal models of pain. Further optimization of 45 resulted in compound 58 with substantially improved microsome stability and oral bioavailability, as well as in vivo activity.
