- Discovery of N-(6-Fluoro-1-oxo-1,2-dihydroisoquinolin-7-yl)-5-[(3R)-3-hydroxypyrrolidin-1-yl]thiophene-2-sulfonamide (LSN 3213128), a Potent and Selective Nonclassical Antifolate Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide Ribonucleotide Formyltransferase (AICARFT) Inhibitor Effective at Tumor Suppression in a Cancer Xenograft Model
-
A hallmark of cancer is unbridled proliferation that can result in increased demand for de novo synthesis of purine and pyrimidine bases required for DNA and RNA biosynthesis. These synthetic pathways are frequently upregulated in cancer and involve various folate-dependent enzymes. Antifolates have a proven record as clinically used oncolytic agents. Our recent research efforts have produced LSN 3213128 (compound 28a), a novel, selective, nonclassical, orally bioavailable antifolate with potent and specific inhibitory activity for aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase (AICARFT), an enzyme in the purine biosynthetic pathway. Inhibition of AICARFT with compound 28a results in dramatic elevation of 5-aminoimidazole 4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (ZMP) and growth inhibition in NCI-H460 and MDA-MB-231met2 cancer cell lines. Treatment with this inhibitor in a murine based xenograft model of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) resulted in tumor growth inhibition.

- Synthesis and evaluation of tetrahydroisoquinoline-benzimidazole hybrids as multifunctional agents for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease
-
A novel series of tetrahydroisoquinoline-benzimidazole hybrids have been designed and synthesized as multifunctional agents against Alzheimer's disease (AD). These compounds were evaluated for their inhibition of neuroinflammation and human β-secretase (hBACE1), and neuroprotective activity. Among them, compound BD3 possessed significant anti-neuroinflammatory activity (IC50 = 5.07 μM against nitric oxide production) through inhibiting the expression and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines in BV2 cells. Compound BD3 also exhibited moderate hBACE1 inhibitory activity (65.7% inhibition at 20 μM) and potent neuroprotective effect by increasing GSH level and reducing ROS production (91.8% cell viability at 5 μM). Parallel artificial membrane permeation assay demonstrated that BD3 could cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Thus, this study demonstrates that the compounds with tetrahydroisoquinoline-benzimidazole scaffold are potential anti-AD agents, and they are worth for the further development.

- Intramolecular Reductive Cyclization of o-Nitroarenes via Biradical Recombination
-
A visible-light-induced/thiourea-mediated intramolecular cyclization of o-nitroarenes under mild conditions is realized for the first time, which provides an efficient and environmentally friendly way to access pharmaceutical relevant quinazolinone derivatives. The reaction can be easily extended to gram level by using a continuous-flow setup with high efficiency. Mechanistic investigation including control experiments, transient fluorescence, UV-vis spectra, and DFT calculations suggests that the formation of active biradical intermediates via intramolecular single electron transfer (SET) is key stage in the catalytic cycle.

-
An efficient metal-free, (NH4)2S2O8 mediated intramolecular oxidative cyclization for the construction of polycyclic heterocycles was disclosed. A series of polycyclic quinazolinone derivatives with good functional group tolerance were obtained in high yields. The natural products tryptanthrin and rutaecarpine, as well as their derivatives, were easily synthesized by this strategy. A preliminary mechanism study suggested the carbon-centered radical was involved in the catalytic cycle.

- Light-Driven Intramolecular C?N Cross-Coupling via a Long-Lived Photoactive Photoisomer Complex
-
Reported herein is a visible-light-driven intramolecular C?N cross-coupling reaction under mild reaction conditions (metal- and photocatalyst-free, at room temperature) via a long-lived photoactive photoisomer complex. This strategy was used to rapidly prepare the N-substituted polycyclic quinazolinone derivatives with a broad substrate scope (>50 examples) and further exploited to synthesize the natural products tryptanthrin, rutaecarpine, and their analogues. The success of gram-scale synthesis and solar-driven transformation, as well as promising tumor-suppressing biological activity, proves the potential of this strategy for practical applications. Mechanistic investigations, including control experiments, DFT calculations, UV-vis spectroscopy, EPR, and X-ray single-crystal structure of the key intermediate, provides insight into the mechanism.

Structure-based drug design was used to guide the optimization of a series of selective BTK inhibitors as potential treatments for Rheumatoid arthritis. Highlights include the introduction of a benzyl alcohol group and a fluorine substitution, each of which resulted in over 10-fold increase in activity. Concurrent optimization of drug-like properties led to compound 1 (RN486) (J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 2012, 341, 90), which was selected for advanced preclinical characterization based on its favorable properties.

- Development of a scalable synthesis of a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor via C-N and C-C bond couplings as an end game strategy
-
A scalable and convergent synthesis of a BTK (Bruton's tyrosine kinase) inhibitor has been developed. Synthetic routes to key intermediates were explored for the scale-up campaign, especially the process for 6-dimethylaminodihydroisoquinolinone, which was prepared via a regioselective cyclization of an isocyanate, mediated by AlCl3. Improved routes to key building blocks were demonstrated by expedient multikilogram productions. The target compound was assembled through a Pd-catalyzed amidation reaction followed by a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction.

- Development of 3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one derivatives for the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging of σ2 receptors
-
σ2 Receptors are promising biomarkers for cancer diagnosis given the relationship between the proliferative status of tumors and their density. With the aim of contributing to the research of σ2 receptor Positron Emission Tomography (PET) probes, we developed 2-[3-[6,7-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl]propyl]-3, 4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one (3), with optimal σ2 pharmacological properties and appropriate lipophilicity. Hence, 3 served as the lead compound for the development of a series of dihydroisoquinolinones amenable to radiolabeling. Radiosynthesis for compound 26, which displayed the most appropriate σ2 profile, was developed and σ2 specific binding for the corresponding [18F]-26 was confirmed by in vitro autoradiography on rat brain slices. Despite the excellent in vitro properties, [18F]-26 could not successfully image σ2 receptors in the rat brain in vivo, maybe because of its interaction with P-gp. Nevertheless, [18F]-26 may still be worthy of further investigation for the imaging of σ2 receptors in peripheral tumors devoid of P-gp overexpression.

- Activation of electrophilicity of stable Y-delocalized carbamate cations in intramolecular aromatic substitution reaction: Evidence for formation of diprotonated carbamates leading to generation of isocyanates
-
Although cations with three heteroatoms, such as monoprotonated guanidine and urea, are stabilized by Y-shaped conjugation and such Y-conjugated cations are sufficiently basic to be further protonated (or protosolvated) to dications in strongly acid media, only O-monoprotonated species have been detected in the case of carbamates even in magic acid. We found that the trifluoromethanesulfonic acid-catalyzed cyclization of arylethylcarbamates proceeds to afford dihydroisoquinolones in high yield. In strong acids, methyl carbamates are fully O-monoprotonated, and these monocations do not undergo cyclization even under heating. But, as the acidity of the reaction medium is further increased, the cyclization reaction of methyl phenethylcarbamates starts to proceed as a first-order reaction, with a linear relationship between rate and acidity. The sign and magnitude of the entropy of activation ΔS ? were found to be similar to those of other AAc1 reactions. These results strongly support the idea that further protonation of the O-protonated carbamates is involved in the cyclization, but the concentration of the dications is very low and suggests that the rate-determining step is dissociation of methanol from the diprotonated carbamate to generate protonated isocyanate, which reacts with the aromatic ring. Therefore, O-protonated carbamates are weak bases in sharp contrast to other Y-shaped monocations.
