- Free-Radical Halogenations. 5. Reaction of Chlorosulfonyl Isocyanate with Alkanes
-
The free-radical chain reactions of chlorosulfonyl isocyanate with alkanes can be initiated with either light or thermal initiators.The major products in these reactions are chlorides, with low yields of isocyanates and sulfonyl chlorides.On the basis of tertiary to primary hydrogen selectivity of about 120:1 and the relative reactivities of various substrates toward the abstracting radical from chlorosulfonyl isocyanate, the hydrogen-abstracting radical is suggested to be the NCO radical.

- POLYMERIZATION, OXYGENATION AND ISOMERIZATION OF ISOCYANIDES UNDER IRRADIATION
-
Irradiation in the presence of triplet oxygen polymerized both 2,4-dimethoxyphenyl and cyclohexyl isocyanide and photoautoxidized each into the corresponding isocyanate.The aryl, but not the alicyclic, isocyanide also photoisomerized into a cyanide.The consumption of an isocyanide was enhanced in the presence of certain aromatic hydrocarbons, e. g., naphthalene and phenanthrene, but was diminished in the presence of pyrene.Two bisisocyanides were unaffected by the presence of oxygen during irradiation.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel 4-(4-formamidophenylamino)-N-methylpicolinamide derivatives as potential antitumor agents
-
A novel series of 4-(4-formamidophenylamino)-N-methylpicolinamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated against different tumor cell lines. Experiments in vitro showed that these derivatives could inhibit the proliferation of two kinds of human cancer cell lines (HepG2, HCT116) at low micromolar concentrations and the most potent analog 5q possessed broad-spectrum antiproliferative activity. Experiments in vivo demonstrated that 5q could effectively prolong the longevity of colon carcinoma-burdened mice and slow down the progression of cancer cells by suppression of angiogenesis and the induction of apoptosis and necrosis.

- Supporting-Electrolyte-Free Anodic Oxidation of Oxamic Acids into Isocyanates: An Expedient Way to Access Ureas, Carbamates, and Thiocarbamates
-
We report a new electrochemical supporting-electrolyte-free method for synthesizing ureas, carbamates, and thiocarbamates via the oxidation of oxamic acids. This simple, practical, and phosgene-free route includes the generation of an isocyanate intermediate in situ via anodic decarboxylation of an oxamic acid in the presence of an organic base, followed by the one-pot addition of suitable nucleophiles to afford the corresponding ureas, carbamates, and thiocarbamates. This procedure is applicable to different amines, alcohols, and thiols. Furthermore, when single-pass continuous electrochemical flow conditions were used and this reaction was run in a carbon graphite Cgr/Cgr flow cell, urea compounds could be obtained in high yields within a residence time of 6 min, unlocking access to substrates that were inaccessible under batch conditions while being easily scalable.

- Dehydrogenative Synthesis of Carbamates from Formamides and Alcohols Using a Pincer-Supported Iron Catalyst
-
We report that the pincer-ligated iron complex (iPrPNP)Fe(H)(CO) [1, iPrPNP- = N(CH2CH2PiPr2)2-] is an active catalyst for the dehydrogenative synthesis of N-alkyl- and N-aryl-substituted carbamates from formamides and alcohols. The reaction is compatible with industrially relevant N-alkyl formamides, as well as N-aryl formamides, and 1°, 2°, and benzylic alcohols. Mechanistic studies indicate that the first step in the reaction is the dehydrogenation of the formamide to a transient isocyanate by 1. The isocyanate then reacts with the alcohol to generate the carbamate. However, in a competing reaction, the isocyanate undergoes a reversible cycloaddition with 1 to generate an off-cycle species, which is the resting state in catalysis. Stoichiometric experiments indicate that high temperatures are required in catalysis to facilitate the release of the isocyanate from the cycloaddition product. We also identified several other off-cycle processes that occur in catalysis, such as the 1,2-addition of the formamide or alcohol substrate across the Fe-N bond of 1. It has already been demonstrated that the transient isocyanate generated from dehydrogenation of the formamide can be trapped with amines to form ureas and, in principle, the isocyanate could also be trapped with thiols to form thiocarbamates. Competition experiments indicate that trapping of the transient isocyanate with amines to produce ureas is faster than trapping with an alcohol to produce carbamates and thus ureas can be formed selectively in the presence of alcohols. In contrast, thiols bind irreversibly to the iron catalyst through 1,2 addition across the Fe-N bond of 1, and it is not possible to produce thiocarbamates. Overall, our mechanistic studies provide general guidelines for facilitating dehydrogenative coupling reactions using 1 and related catalysts.

- Practical one-pot amidation of N -Alloc-, N -Boc-, and N -Cbz protected amines under mild conditions
-
A facile one-pot synthesis of amides from N-Alloc-, N-Boc-, and N-Cbz-protected amines has been described. The reactions involve the use of isocyanate intermediates, which are generated in situ in the presence of 2-chloropyridine and trifluoromethanesulfonyl anhydride, to react with Grignard reagents to produce the corresponding amides. Using this reaction protocol, a variety of N-Alloc-, N-Boc-, and N-Cbz-protected aliphatic amines and aryl amines were efficiently converted to amides with high yields. This method is highly effective for the synthesis of amides and offers a promising approach for facile amidation.

- Palladium-Mediated CO2 Extrusion Followed by Insertion of Isocyanates for the Synthesis of Benzamides: Translating Fundamental Mechanistic Studies to Develop a Catalytic Protocol
-
Mechanistic studies of a stoichiometric palladium-mediated ExIn (ExIn = extrusion-insertion) decarboxylative amidation of aromatic carboxylic acids are presented, providing gas-phase and condensed-phase spectroscopic data, as well as theoretical computational evidence for intermediates in a proposed stepwise process. The understanding gained from these mechanistic studies directed the development of a palladium-catalyzed procedure in which benzamides are obtained in good to high yields in a one-pot 30 min microwave irradiation assisted protocol. A combination of experimental data and DFT calculations reveals that certain ligand additives favor the selective formation of benzamides rather than the undesired protodecarboxylation side product.

- Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of 2,4-imidazolinedione derivatives as hdac6 isoform-selective inhibitors
-
Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) has emerged as a promising drug target for various human diseases, including diverse neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Herein, we reported a series of 2,4-imidazolinedione derivatives as novel HDAC6 isoform-selective inhibitors based on structure-based drug design. Most target compounds exhibit good profiles in a preliminary screening concerning HDAC6 inhibitory activities. Moreover, the most active compound 10c increases the acetylation level of α-tubulin with little effect on the acetylation of histone H3. Further biological evaluation suggested that potent compound 10c, which possesses good antiproliferative activity, could induce apoptosis in HL-60 cell by activating caspase 3.

- Method for preparing isocyanate by using amine and carbonyl fluoride
-
The invention discloses an efficient synthesis method for preparing corresponding isocyanate by enabling carbonyl fluoride to directly react with amine. The efficient synthesis method mainly comprises the following two steps: carrying out acylation reaction on the amine and the carbonyl fluoride according to a preferable proportion in an anhydrous inertial organic solvent under a sealed environment and a proper reaction condition, thus generating an intermediate-carbamyl fluoride; (2) carrying out dehydrofluorination on the intermediate-carbamyl fluoride under normal pressure and the proper reaction condition, thus obtaining the target isocyanate. During a reaction process, addition of a catalyst is not needed, the reaction conditions are mild, excessive carbonyl fluoride and a used solvent during the reaction process can be efficiently recycled and reused, and a by-product HF can be commercially sold after being collected and refined.

- An investigation on practical synthesis of carboxylic acid derivatives using p-toluenesulfonyl chloride
-
Carboxylic acid derivatives are well recognized as important class of reagents frequently used in the preparation of a variety of fine or special chemicals such as amides, esters, peptides, drugs, and dyes. Although several methods were developed for the preparation of these compounds, many of them present difficulties, including low yield, high reaction temperature, harsh reaction conditions, tedious work-up, and incompatibility with scale-up. Methods: The synthesis of carboxylic anhydrides is developed through the reaction of carboxylic acids with TsCl in the presence of K2CO3 and acetonitrile as a solvent under ultrasound irradiation and conventional conditions. In addition, one-pot synthesis of acyl azides was carried out in the presence of produced carboxylic anhydrides and the addition of sodium azide under identical condition. Results: A series of carboxylic anhydrides and acyl azides were synthesized using TsCl under ultrasound irradiation and conventional stirring with simple procedure, mild reaction conditions, high yields, and scale-up ability without any restriction. In most cases, the reaction under ultrasound irradiation was better in both yields and the reaction times compared to the conventional method. Conclusion: A convenient method has been developed for the preparation of carboxylic anhydrides and acyl azides under ultrasound irradiation and conventional stirring. The present method is practical and a highly effective alternative for previous reports. The major advantages of this method are: (i) simplicity of the procedure (ii) high yields and high purity of product (iii) scale-up capacity without considerable limitation in conventional system. Under ultrasound irradiation short reaction times as compared to conventional method are observed; yields are comparable to or better than conventional method.

- Alkyl Isocyanates via Manganese-Catalyzed C-H Activation for the Preparation of Substituted Ureas
-
Organic isocyanates are versatile intermediates that provide access to a wide range of functionalities. In this work, we have developed the first synthetic method for preparing aliphatic isocyanates via direct C-H activation. This method proceeds efficiently at room temperature and can be applied to functionalize secondary, tertiary, and benzylic C-H bonds with good yields and functional group compatibility. Moreover, the isocyanate products can be readily converted to substituted ureas without isolation, demonstrating the synthetic potential of the method. To study the reaction mechanism, we have synthesized and characterized a rare MnIV-NCO intermediate and demonstrated its ability to transfer the isocyanate moiety to alkyl radicals. Using EPR spectroscopy, we have directly observed a MnIV intermediate under catalytic conditions. Isocyanation of celestolide with a chiral manganese salen catalyst followed by trapping with aniline afforded the urea product in 51% enantiomeric excess. This represents the only example of an asymmetric synthesis of an organic urea via C-H activation. When combined with our DFT calculations, these results clearly demonstrate that the C-NCO bond was formed through capture of a substrate radical by a MnIV-NCO intermediate.

- Selective N-methylation of aliphatic amines with CO2 and hydrosilanes using nickel-phosphine catalysts
-
A method using CO2 and PhSiH3 for the methylation of primary and secondary aliphatic amines catalyzed by Ni (0) complexes was developed, selectively producing the monomethylated products in moderate to good yields. For that purpose, two catalysts were used: [(dippe)Ni(μ-H)]2 and the commercially available Ni(COD)2/dcype, both of which were rather efficient in this process. With a slight experimental modification, the reaction allowed the production of monomethylated ureas in good yields by using low amounts of PhSiH3. On the basis of the experimental results, we propose a possible reaction mechanism for the formation of the new C-N bond.

- Structure-activity relationship studies of pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives leading to the discovery of a novel multikinase inhibitor that potently inhibits FLT3 and VEGFR2 and evaluation of its activity against acute myeloid leukemia in vitro and in vivo
-
We describe the structural optimization of a hit compound, 1-(4-(1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-ylamino)phenyl)-3-(3-methoxyphenyl)urea (1), which exhibits inhibitory activity but low potency against FLT3 and VEGFR2. A series of pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives were synthesized, and structure-activity relationship analysis using cell- and transgenic-zebrafish- based assays led to the discovery of a number of compounds that exhibited both high potency against FLT3-driven human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) MV4-11 cells and a considerable antiangiogenic effect in transgenic-zebrafish-based assays. The compound 1-(4-(1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin -4-yloxy)phenyl)-3-(4-chloro-3- (trifluoromethyl)phenyl)urea (33), which exhibited the highest activity in preliminary in vivo anti-AML assays, was chosen for further anti-AML studies. The results demonstrated that compound 33 is a multikinase inhibitor that potently inhibits FLT3 and VEGFR2. In an MV4-11 xenograft mouse model, a once-daily dose of compound 33 at 10 mg/kg for 18 days led to complete tumor regression without obvious toxicity. Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses were performed to determine the mechanism of action of compound 33.

The development of CDK and GSK3 inhibitors has been regarded as a potential therapeutic approach, and a substantial number of diverse structures have been reported to inhibit CDKs and GSK-3β in recent years. Only a few molecules have gone through or are currently undergoing clinical trials as CDK and GSK inhibitors. In this paper, we prepared valmerins, a new family containing the tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]isoindone core. The fused heterocycle was prepared with a straightforward synthesis that was functionalized by a (het)arylurea. Twelve valmerins inhibited the CDK5 and GSK3 with an IC50 100 nM. A semiquantitative kinase scoring was realized, and a cellular screening was done. At the end of our study, we investigated the in vivo potency of one valmerin. Mice exhibited good tolerance to our lead, which proved its efficacy and clearly blocked tumor growth. Valmerins appear also as good candidates for further development as anticancer agents.

The most active compound 12j (IC50 = 1.1 μM, compared with Bestatin IC50 = 8.1 μM) not only possessed much better APN inhibitory activity and anti-proliferation effect on cancer cells, but also exhibited significant block effect of human cancer cell invasion compared with the positive control, Bestatin.

All the target products were obtained in high yields (16 examples, average yield 91%). To be noted is the recovery of a co-product of industrial interest, dimethyl disulfide, in a half mole amount for each mole of thiocarbamate, with complete exploitation of the reagent. The alkyl isocyanates, if required, can also be isolated in high yields. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

- Organosilicon synthesis of isocyanates: II. Synthesis of aliphatic, carbocyclic, and fatty-aromatic isocyanates

Silylation of a series of aliphatic, carbocyclic, and fatty-aromatic amines gave the corresponding silyl derivatives whose yield depended on the electronic and steric structure of the substrate and the nature of the silylating agent. The yield of isocyanates obtained by phosgenation of the silyl derivatives under mild conditions decreased in going from aliphatic amines to benzylamines and rose as the length of the alkyl chain in fatty-aromatic amines extended. The most convenient procedure for the synthesis of low-boiling alkyl isocyanates was found to be based on the transformation of amines or ammonium salts into silyl or silyl silyl-carabamates, followed by pyrolysis of the latter in the presence of trichloro(phenyl)silane.

- A new and convenient method of generating alkyl isocyanates from alcohols, thiols and trimethylsilyl ethers using triphenylphosphine/2,3-dichloro-5,6- dicyanobenzoquinone/Bu4NOCN
-
Alkyl isocyanates are prepared in good to excellent yields by treatment of alcohols, thiols and trimethylsilyl ethers with triphenylphosphine/2,3-dichloro- 5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone/ Bu4NOCN in acetonitrile. This method is highly selective for conversion of primary alcohols to alkyl isocyanates in the presence of secondary and tertiary alcohols, thiols and trimethysilyl ethers.

- Alkanethioimidoyl Radicals: Evaluation of β-Scission Rates and of Cyclization onto S-Alkenyl Substituents
-
Thioimidoyl radicals were generated by addition of alkylsulfanyl radicals to alkyl isonitriles and were characterized by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The β-scissions of their C·S-C bonds were studied by variable-temperature EPR spectroscopy and the fragmentation rate constants and activation energies were calculated. The scission rates depend on the stability of the released alkyl radicals but in any case, at room temperature, the processes were fast. Data collected on similar oxyimidoyls showed that their fragmentations are slightly slower compared to those of analogous thioimidoyls. The scission rates of selenoimidoyls could not be studied by EPR and were evaluated by theoretical calculations. EPR experiments also enabled both β-scission and 5-exo ring closure rate constants of two S-but-3-enyl-substituted imidoyl radicals to be determined, showing that cyclization prevails only at low temperatures. Density functional theory (DFT) theoretical calculations predicted that the fragmentation process preferentially occurs from the s-cis rotamers (X-C bond) of the imidoyl radicals. Thio- and seleno-imidoyls (but not oxyimidoyls) prefer s-trans conformations so that their fragmentations involve prior rotation about the X-C bond.

- Di-tert-butyl dicarbonate and 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine revisited. Their reactions with amines and alcohols
-
The reaction of BOC2O in the presence and absence of DMAP was examined with some amines, alcohols, diols, amino alcohols, and aminothiols. Often, unusual products were observed depending on the ratio of reagents, reaction time, polarity of solvent, pK(a) of alcohols, or type of amine (primary or secondary). In reactions of aliphatic alcohols with BOC2O/DMAP, we isolated for the first time carbonic-carbonic anhydride intermediates; this helps explain the formation of symmetrical carbonates in addition to the O-BOC products. In the case of secondary amines, we succeeded to isolate unstable carbamic-carbonic anhydride intermediates that in the presence of DMAP led to the final N-BOC product. The effect of N-methylimidazole in place of DMAP was also examined.

- Preparation of isocyanates from primary amines and carbon dioxide using Mitsunobu chemistry
-
Primary alkylamines 1 and hindered arylamines 1 give high yields of isocyanates 5 when reacted with carbon dioxide and the Mitsunobu zwitterions 4 generated from dialkyl azodicarboxylates and Bu3P in dichloromethane at - 78°C. Use of Ph3P still gave high yields of isocyanates from reactions of primary alkylamines, but only low yields were obtained from reactions of aromatic amines. Reactions which failed to give high yields of isocyanates gave either carbamoylhydrazines 6 and/or dicarbamoylhydrazines 10 and/or triazolinones 7. The triazolinones were shown to arise from reactions of reactive aryl isocyanates with the Mitsunobu zwitterion. The carbamoylhydrazines were shown not to arise from reaction of isocyanate with reduced dialkyl azodicarboxylates, and a mechanism for their formation is proposed. Single-crystal X-ray analyses confirmed the structures of 6, 7, and 10.

- Novel carbamates as potent histamine H3 receptor antagonists with high in vitro and oral in vivo activity
-
The known histamine H3 receptor antagonists burimamide, thioperamide, clobenpropit, and a related homohistamine thioamide derivative were taken as templates in search for new leads. Novel histamine H3 receptor antagonists structurally described as carbamate derivatives of 3-(1H-imidazol-4- yl)propanol were prepared in high yields by treatment of the alcohol with corresponding isocyanates or carbamoyl chlorides and investigated for their H3 receptor antagonist activity. Different chain lengths and various substituents possessing different electronic and steric parameters were introduced and structure-activity relationships established. In different functional tests, the new antagonists showed high H3 receptor antagonist potencies in vitro (-log K(i) values of 6.4-8.4) at synaptosomes of rat cerebral cortex and low activities at histamine H1 and H2 receptor subtypes. They were also screened for their central in vivo activity in mice after peroral administration. The most promising compounds (2, 16, 19) showed ED50 values of about 1-2 mg/kg and thus are potential drugs for the therapy of H3 receptor dependent diseases. Some of the novel carbamate derivatives are H3 receptor selective compounds with high in vitro and in vivo activity.
