- Pyrazole Agonist of the Apelin Receptor Improves Symptoms of Metabolic Syndrome in Mice
-
Apelin receptor agonism improves symptoms of metabolic syndrome. However, endogenous apelin peptides have short half-lives, making their utility as potential drugs limited. Previously, we had identified a novel pyrazole-based agonist scaffold. Systematic modification of this scaffold was performed to produce compounds with improved ADME properties. Compound 13 with favorable agonist potency (cAMPi EC50 = 162 nM), human liver microsome stability (T1/2 = 62 min), and pharmacokinetic profile in rodents was identified. The compound was tested in a mouse model of diet-induced obesity (DIO) and metabolic syndrome for efficacy. Treatment with 13 led to significant weight loss, hypophagia, improved glucose utilization, reduced liver steatosis, and improvement of disease-associated biomarkers. In conclusion, a small-molecule agonist of the apelin receptor has been identified that is suitable for in vivo investigation of the apelinergic system in DIO and perhaps other diseases where this receptor has been implicated to play a role.

- GDC-9545 (Giredestrant): A Potent and Orally Bioavailable Selective Estrogen Receptor Antagonist and Degrader with an Exceptional Preclinical Profile for ER+ Breast Cancer
-
Breast cancer remains a leading cause of cancer death in women, representing a significant unmet medical need. Here, we disclose our discovery efforts culminating in a clinical candidate, 35 (GDC-9545 or giredestrant). 35 is an efficient and potent selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) and a full antagonist, which translates into better antiproliferation activity than known SERDs (1, 6, 7, and 9) across multiple cell lines. Fine-tuning the physiochemical properties enabled once daily oral dosing of 35 in preclinical species and humans. 35 exhibits low drug-drug interaction liability and demonstrates excellent in vitro and in vivo safety profiles. At low doses, 35 induces tumor regressions either as a single agent or in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor in an ESR1Y537S mutant PDX or a wild-type ERα tumor model. Currently, 35 is being evaluated in Phase III clinical trials.

A dual gold-catalyzed hexadehydro-Diels-Alder/carboalkoxylation cascade reaction is reported. In this transformation, the gold catalyst participated in the hexadehydro-Diels-Alder step, switching the mechanism from a radical type to a cationic one, and then the catalyst activated the resulting aryne to form an ortho-Au phenyl cation species, which underwent a carboalkoxylation rearrangement rather than the expected aryne-ene reaction.

Prodrugs are derivatives of drugs which gives parent drug or release drug when it breaks inside the body by the presence of suitable enzyme, and then exert desired pharmacological effect. For many years, prodrug strategy has been developed enormously to solve many unwanted drug properties. In drug discovery and development, prodrugs have well-known pharmacokinetic effects of pharmacologically nimble products. Almost 10% of drugs permitted whole world are classified as prodrugs, where the application of a prodrug method during initial stages of development is an emergent fashion. Phosphorodiamidates prodrugs are well known anticancer agents particularly against leucomia. To improve the selectivity of the chemotherapeutic agents and reduce systemic toxicity, I herein report different types of salicylate and salicylamide alcohols for the preparation of phosphorodiamidates and ifosfamide prodrugs.

Aliphatic aldehydes can be homologated to both one-carbon shorter and one-carbon longer homologous carbonyl compounds through the 2–4 steps of reactions via the same intermediates, β,γ-unsaturated α-nitrosulfones, prepared from the proline-catalyzed sequential reactions of several aliphatic aldehydes with phenylsulfonylnitromethane. While the oxidative cleavage of the key intermediates gave one-carbon less homologous carbonyl compounds, the reduction of the same key intermediates followed by an oxidation produced one-carbon more homologous carbonyl compounds.

- Selective Aerobic Oxidation of Alcohols with NO3? Activated Nitroxyl Radical/Manganese Catalyst System
-
A homogeneous Mn(NO3)2/2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl/2-picolinic acid catalyst system is highly active and versatile for the selective aerobic oxidation of alcohols (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl=TEMPO, 2-picolinic acid=PyCOOH). The catalytic method enables near quantitative conversion of various primary alcohols to the respective aldehydes using a very simple reaction setup and workup. This study presents findings on the catalyst stability and mechanisms of deactivation. The results show that NO3? plays a crucial catalytic role in the reaction as a source of oxygen activating NOx species. Yet, disproportionation of NO3? to the volatile NO2 during the reaction leads to catalyst deactivation under open air conditions. Catalyst deactivation through this route can be overcome by adding a catalytic amount of nitrate salt, for example NaNO3 into the reaction. This stabilizes the Mn(NO3)2/TEMPO/PyCOOH catalyst and enables oxidation of various primary alcohols to the respective aldehydes using low catalyst loadings under ambient conditions. Secondary alcohols can be oxidized with a modified catalyst utilizing sterically accessible nitroxyl radical 9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane N-oxyl (ABNO) instead of TEMPO. At the end of the alcohol oxidation, pure carbonyl products and the reusable catalyst can be recovered simply by extracting with organic solvent and dilute aqueous acid, followed by evaporation of both phases.

- Enantioselective Radical Cyclization for Construction of 5-Membered Ring Structures by Metalloradical C-H Alkylation
-
Radical cyclization represents a powerful strategy for construction of ring structures. Traditional radical cyclization, which is based on radical addition as the key step, necessitates the use of unsaturated substrates. Guided by the concept of metalloradical catalysis, a different mode of radical cyclization that can employ saturated C-H substrates is demonstrated through the development of a Co(II)-based system for catalytic activation of aliphatic diazo compounds for enantioselective radical alkylation of various C(sp3)-H bonds. It allows for efficient construction of chiral pyrrolidines and other valuable 5-membered cyclic compounds. This alternative strategy of radical cyclization provides a new retrosynthetic paradigm to prepare five-membered cyclic molecules from readily available open-chain aldehydes through the union of C-H and C=O elements for C-C bond formation.

The new synthetic route to α-acyloxy amides based on Passerini multicomponent reaction followed by transformation into the corresponding five-, six-, and seven-membered 3-hydroxy-lactams has been proposed. The influence of the reaction conditions, which includes substrate structure on the reaction course that led to desired lactams, was studied. The use of various oxo components in the Passerini multicomponent reaction (P-MCR) has been evaluated. The first example of a semicyclic O,O-acetal employed as an aldehyde equivalent in the P-MCR has been reported. Finally, the established protocol was successfully applied for the enantioselective synthesis of 3-hydroxy-lactams, which play a crucial role in the synthesis of the number of bioactive compounds.

- Practical Aerobic Oxidation of Alcohols: A Ligand-Enhanced 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy/Manganese Nitrate Catalyst System
-
A highly efficient, ligand-enhanced 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy (TEMPO)/Mn(NO3)2 catalyst system for the aerobic oxidation of alcohols is described. From the series of coordinating ligands studied herein, 2-picolinic acid (PyCOOH) improves the catalytic activity of TEMPO/Mn(NO3)2 remarkably. Under ambient air at room temperature in acetic acid, the ligand-enhanced catalyst converts aliphatic and benzylic primary alcohols that bear various functional groups into their respective aldehydes with near quantitative conversions. The applicability of the catalyst for convenient preparative synthesis was demonstrated by conducting oxidations on a gram scale. A change of TEMPO to the sterically less demanding 9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane N-oxyl results in a Mn catalyst that is also able to oxidize secondary alcohols to ketones. Mechanistic studies showed that alcohols are oxidized by the oxoammonium cation derived from the nitroxyl radical. The active oxidant is regenerated by Mn(NO3)2, and this process is greatly promoted by the coordination of PyCOOH to Mn.

- Cyclohexane Rings Reduce Membrane Permeability to Small Ions in Archaea-Inspired Tetraether Lipids
-
Extremophile archaeal organisms overcome problems of membrane permeability by producing lipids with structural elements that putatively improve membrane integrity compared to lipids from other life forms. Herein, we describe a series of lipids that mimic some key structural features of archaeal lipids, such as: 1) single tethering of lipid tails to create fully transmembrane tetraether lipids and 2) the incorporation of small rings into these tethered segments. We found that membranes formed from pure tetraether lipids leaked small ions at a rate that was about two orders of magnitude slower than common bilayer-forming lipids. Incorporation of cyclopentane rings into the tetraether lipids did not affect membrane leakage, whereas a cyclohexane ring reduced leakage by an additional 40 %. These results show that mimicking certain structural features of natural archaeal lipids results in improved membrane integrity, which may help overcome limitations of many current lipid-based technologies.

- Catalysis-based total synthesis of putative mandelalide A
-
A concise synthesis of the putative structure assigned to the highly cytotoxic marine macrolide mandelalide A (1) is disclosed. Specifically, an iridium-catalyzed two-directional Krische allylation and a cobalt-catalyzed carbonylative epoxide opening served as convenient entry points for the preparation of the major building blocks. The final stages feature the first implementation of terminal-acetylene metathesis into natural product synthesis, which is remarkable as this class of substrates was beyond reach until very recently; key to success was the use of the highly selective molybdenum alkylidyne complex 42 as the catalyst. Although the constitution and stereochemistry of the synthetic samples are unambiguous, the spectra of 1 as well as of 11-epi-1 deviate from those of the natural product, which implies a subtle but deep-seated error in the original structure assignment. Bitter and sweet: The synthesis of the proposed structure of the cytotoxic macrolide mandelalide A reiterates the notion that structure elucidation of architecturally complex natural products is not always reliable. From the chemical viewpoint, the chosen route attests to the power of (transition) metals as catalysts for stereoselective synthesis. Most notable is the first application of terminal-acetylene metathesis to natural product chemistry.

- A general and enantioselective approach to pentoses: A rapid synthesis of PSI-6130, the nucleoside core of sofosbuvir
-
An efficient route towards biologically relevant pentose derivatives is described. The de novo synthetic strategy features an enantioselective α-oxidation reaction enabled by a chiral amine in conjunction with copper(II) catalysis. A subsequent Mukaiyama aldol coupling allows for the incorporation of a wide array of modular two-carbon fragments. Lactone intermediates accessed via this route provide a useful platform for elaboration, as demonstrated by the preparation of a variety of C-nucleosides and fluorinated pentoses. Finally, this work has facilitated expedient syntheses of pharmaceutically active compounds currently in clinical use.

- Simple stereoselective synthesis of unsaturated lactone intermediates and their conversion into natural dihydropyranones and their enantiomers#
-
The stereoselective synthesis of the unsaturated lactone intermediates, (S) - and (R)-2-(6-oxo-3, 6-dihydro-2Hpyran-2-yl) acetaldehydes has been accomplished from propane 1,3 diol employing Maruoka asymmetric allylation and ring closing metathesis reaction. The intermediates were converted into two natural dihydropyranones, 6 (R)-4-oxopent-2-enyl 5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-one and (R)- rugulactone and their enantiomers through Wittig olefination.

- Total synthesis and full histone deacetylase inhibitory profiling of azumamides A-E as Well as β2- epi -Azumamide e and β3- epi -Azumamide e
-
Cyclic tetrapeptide and depsipeptide natural products have proven useful as biological probes and drug candidates due to their potent activities as histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors. Here, we present the syntheses of a class of cyclic tetrapeptide HDAC inhibitors, the azumamides, by a concise route in which the key step in preparation of the noncanonical disubstituted β-amino acid building block was an Ellman-type Mannich reaction. By tweaking the reaction conditions during this transformation, we gained access to the natural products as well as two epimeric homologues. Thus, the first total syntheses of azumamides B-D corroborated the originally assigned structures, and the synthetic efforts enabled the first full profiling of HDAC inhibitory properties of the entire selection of azumamides A-E. This revealed unexpected differences in the relative potencies within the class and showed that azumamides C and E are both potent inhibitors of HDAC10 and HDAC11.

- Investigation on the chemoenzymatic synthesis of threo- and erythro-β-hydroxy-L-glutamic acid derivatives
-
A derivative of the malonic semialdehyde was transformed by means of a bioconversion catalyzed by the enzyme L-threonine aldolase from E. coli into a 6:4 epimeric mixture of two precursors of β-hydroxy glutamic acid. The enzyme was selective for the formation of the (S)-configuration at C-2, whereas the configuration at C-3 was not controlled. The two epimers were separated exploiting a diastereoselective acylation in organic solvent catalyzed by lipase PS. The relative and absolute configurations of the products were preliminarily assigned on the base of the model proposed by Kazslauskas for the stereopreference of lipase PS and by comparison of the chemical shifts of the H-2 and H-3 protons of the two homologues. The possibility of transforming the obtained products into β-hydroxy glutamic acid derivatives by conventional chemical reactions was demonstrated.

- Concise total synthesis of dihydrocorynanthenol, protoemetinol, protoemetine, 3-epi-protoemetinol and emetine
-
A concise asymmetric assembly of secologanine tryptamine and dopamine alkaloids by means of a one-pot three-component cascade reaction methodology is disclosed. This is demonstrated by the expeditious total syntheses of (-)-dihydrocorynanthenol, (-)-protoemetinol, (-)-protoemetine, (-)-3-epi-protoemetinol, and emetine (3-6 steps). The biomimetic synthetic strategy involved the following key steps: (i) One-pot three-component highly enantioselective catalytic Michael/Pictet-Spengler/lactamization cascade reactions; (ii) One-pot tandem Swern oxidation/Wittig sequences; (iii) One-pot tandem hydrogenation sequences.

-
Axial to axial to point chirality transfer: Exposure of conjugated enynes to alcohols in the presence of an iridium catalyst modified by a segphos ligand results in the generation of aldehyde-allenyliridium pairs and formation of enantiomerically enriched products of carbonyl anti-(α-methyl) propargylation (see scheme). An identical set of products are obtained from aldehydes under related transfer hydrogenation conditions by employing formic acid as a reductant. Copyright

- Ruthenium-catalyzed reductive coupling of 1,3-enynes and aldehydes by transfer hydrogenation: Anti-diastereoselective carbonyl propargylation
-
Under the conditions of ruthenium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation employing isopropanol as a source of hydrogen, isopropoxy-substituted enyne 1 b and aldehydes 3 a-3 l engage in reductive coupling to provide products of propargylation 4 a-4 l with good to complete levels of anti- diastereoselectivity. The unprotected tertiary hydroxy moiety of isopropoxy enyne 1 b is required to enforce diastereoselectivity. Deuterium-labeling studies corroborate reversible enyne hydrometalation in advance of carbonyl addition. As demonstrated in the conversion of 4 f-h and 4 k to 5 f-h and 5 k, the isopropoxy group of the product is readily cleaved upon exposure to aqueous sodium hydroxide to reveal the terminal alkyne. Unprotected coupling is better! Ruthenium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of enynes in the presence of aldehydes promotes reductive C-C coupling to provide products of propargylation with good to complete levels of anti-diastereoselectivity (see scheme). The unprotected hydroxy group of the isopropoxy-substituted enyne is required to enforce high levels of anti-diastereoselectivity. Copyright
