- Following Nature’s Footprint: Mimicking the High-Valent Heme-Oxo Mediated Indole Monooxygenation Reaction Landscape of Heme Enzymes
-
Pathways for direct conversion of indoles to oxindoles have accumulated considerable interest in recent years due to their significance in the clear comprehension of various pathogenic processes in humans and the multipotent therapeutic value of oxindole pharmacophores. Heme enzymes are predominantly responsible for this conversion in biology and are thought to proceed with a compound-I active oxidant. These heme-enzyme-mediated indole monooxygenation pathways are rapidly emerging therapeutic targets; however, a clear mechanistic understanding is still lacking. Additionally, such knowledge holds promise in the rational design of highly specific indole monooxygenation synthetic protocols that are also cost-effective and environmentally benign. We herein report the first examples of synthetic compound-I and activated compound-II species that can effectively monooxygenate a diverse array of indoles with varied electronic and steric properties to exclusively produce the corresponding 2-oxindole products in good to excellent yields. Rigorous kinetic, thermodynamic, and mechanistic interrogations clearly illustrate an initial rate-limiting epoxidation step that takes place between the heme oxidant and indole substrate, and the resulting indole epoxide intermediate undergoes rearrangement driven by a 2,3-hydride shift on indole ring to ultimately produce 2-oxindole. The complete elucidation of the indole monooxygenation mechanism of these synthetic heme models will help reveal crucial insights into analogous biological systems, directly reinforcing drug design attempts targeting those heme enzymes. Moreover, these bioinspired model compounds are promising candidates for the future development of better synthetic protocols for the selective, efficient, and sustainable generation of 2-oxindole motifs, which are already known for a plethora of pharmacological benefits.

- Selective formation of γ-lactams via C-H amidation enabled by tailored iridium catalysts
-
Intramolecular insertion of met al nitrenes into carbon-hydrogen bonds to form γ-lactam rings has traditionally been hindered by competing isocyanate formation. We report the application of theory and mechanism studies to optimize a class of pentamethylcyclopentadienyl iridium(III) catalysts for suppression of this competing pathway. Modulation of the stereoelectronic properties of the auxiliary bidentate ligands to be more electron-donating was suggested by density functional theory calculations to lower the C-H insertion barrier favoring the desired reaction. These catalysts transform a wide range of 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones, carbonylnitrene precursors easily accessible from carboxylic acids, into the corresponding γ-lactams via sp3 and sp2 C-H amidation with exceptional selectivity. The power of this method was further demonstrated by the successful late-stage functionalization of amino acid derivatives and other bioactive molecules.

- Discovery of novel polycyclic spiro-fused carbocyclicoxindole-based anticancer agents
-
A series of novel polycyclic spiro-fused carbocyclicoxindoles were synthesized and investigated for their in?vitro antiproliferative activities against nine human cancer cell lines. Five compounds (10i, 10l, 10n, 10p, and 10r) demonstrated anticancer activities against A2780s cells with IC50values of less than 30?μM. In particular, compound 10i showed anticancer activities against seven cancer cell lines and stronger activities than cisplatin in A2780s, A2780T, CT26, and HCT116?cells. Further studies illustrated that compound 10i arrested cell cycle in G1 phase and induced apoptosis of HCT116?cells. This compound also effectively increased the protein levels of cleaved caspase-3, p53, and MDM2. Molecular docking results revealed that compound 10i could bind well to the p53-binding site on MDM2, indicating that it might work by blocking the MDM2-p53 interactions.

- Natural α-methylenelactam analogues: Design, synthesis and evaluation of α-alkenyl-γ and δ-lactams as potential antifungal agents against Colletotrichum orbiculare
-
In our continued efforts to improve the potential utility of the α-methylene-γ-lactone scaffold, 62 new and 59 known natural α-methylenelactam analogues including α-methylene-γ-lactams, α-arylidene-γ and δ-lactams, and 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones were synthesized as the bioisosteric analogues of the α-methylenelactone scaffold. The results of antifungal and cytotoxic activity indicated that among these derivatives compound (E)-1-(2, 6-dichlorobenzyl)-3-(2-fluorobenzylidene) pyrrolidin-2-one (Py51) possessed good selectivity with the highest antifungal activity against Colletotrichum orbiculare with IC50?=?10.4?μM but less cytotoxic activity with IC50?=?141.2?μM (against HepG2 cell line) and 161.2?μM (against human hepatic L02?cell line). Ultrastructural change studies performed by transmission electron microscope showed that Py51 could cause important cell morphological changes in C.?orbiculare, such as plasma membrane detached from cell wall, cell wall thickening, mitochondria disruption, a dramatic increase in vacuolation, and eventually a complete loss in the integrity of organelles. Significantly, mitochondria appeared one of the primary targets, as confirmed by their remarkably aberrant morphological changes. Analysis of structure–activity relationships revealed that incorporation of the aryl group into the α-exo-methylene and the N-benzyl substitution increased the activity. Meanwhile, the α-arylidene-γ-lactams have superiority in selectivity over the 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones. Based on the results, the N-benzyl substituted α-(2-fluorophenyl)-γ-lactam was identified as the most promising natural-based scaffold for further discovering and developing improved crop-protection agents.

- A safe and selective method for reduction of 2-nitrophenylacetic acid systems to N-aryl hydroxamic acids using continuous flow hydrogenation
-
The cyclic hydroxamic acid functional group is critical to the biological activity of numerous natural products and drug candidates. Efficient, reliable, and green synthetic methods to produce cyclic hydroxamic acids are needed. Herein, flow hydrogenation has been explored as a novel approach toward achieving the selective partial reduction of 2-nitrophenylacetic acid to 1-hydroxyindolin-2-one. The bidentate ligand, 1,10-phenanthroline, has been identified as a unique inhibitor for modulating product selectivity in this Pt/C-catalyzed process. Under the newly optimized reaction conditions, the targeted hydroxamic acid is produced with high selectivity (49:1) over the lactam by-product. The scope of the reaction is demonstrated for a variety of 2-nitrophenylacetic acid derivatives.

- Design, synthesis and apoptosis inducing effect of novel (Z)-3-(3′-methoxy-4′-(2-amino-2-oxoethoxy)-benzylidene)indolin-2-ones as potential antitumour agents
-
A series of new (Z)-3-(3′-methoxy-4′-(2-amino-2-oxoethoxy)benzylidene)indolin-2-one derivatives has been synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against selected human cancer cell lines of prostate (PC-3 and DU-145), breast (BT-549 and MDA-MB-231) and non-tumorigenic prostate epithelial cells (RWPE-1). Among the tested, one of the compounds 4p exhibited potent cytotoxicity selectively on prostate cancer cell lines (PC-3 and DU-145; IC50: 1.89 ± 0.6 and 1.94 ± 0.2 μM, respectively). Further experiments were conducted with 4p on PC-3 cancer cells to study the mechanisms of growth inhibition and apoptosis inducing effect. Treatment of PC-3 cells with test compound 4p resulted in inhibition of cell migration through disorganization of F-actin protein. The flow-cytometry analysis results showed that the compound arrested PC-3 cancer cells in the G2/M phase of cell cycle in a dose dependent manner. Hoechst staining and annexin-V binding assay revealed that the compound 4p inhibited tumor cell proliferation through induction of apoptosis. Western blot studies demonstrated that the compound 4p treatment led to activation of caspase-3, increased expression of pro-apoptotic Bax and significantly decreased expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 in human prostate cancer PC-3 cells. In addition, the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΦm) was also affected and the levels of intracellular Ca2+ were raised.

A new series of (E)-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methylene)indolin-2-one derivatives has been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against a panel of selected human cancer cell lines of prostate (PC-3 and DU-145) and breast (BT-549, MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, 4T1), non-small lung (A549) and gastric (HGC) cancer cells along with normal breast epithelial cells (MCF10A). Among the tested compounds, 8l showed significant cytotoxic activity against MDA-MB-231 and 4T1 cancer cells with IC50values of 3.26 ± 0.24 μM and 5.96 ± 0.67 μM respectively. The compounds 8f, 8i, 8l and 8o were also screened on normal human breast epithelial cells (MCF10A) and found to be safer with lesser cytotoxicity. The treatment of MDA-MB-231 cells with 8l led to inhibition of cell migration ability through disruption of F-actin protein assembly. The flow-cytometry analysis reveals that the cells arrested in G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle. Further, the compound 8l induced apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cells was characterized by different staining techniques such as Acridine Orange/Ethidium Bromide (AO/EB), DAPI, annexin V-FITC/PI, Rhodamine-123 and MitoSOX red assay. Western blot studies demonstrated that the compound 8l treatment led to activation of caspase-3, increased expression of cleaved PARP, increased expression of pro-apoptotic Bax and decreased expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 in MDA-MB-231 cancer cells.

- Divergent synthesis of indoles, oxindoles, isocoumarins and isoquinolinones by general Pd-catalyzed retro-aldol/α-arylation
-
Divergent synthesis of indoles, oxindoles, isocoumarins and isoquinolinones is described in this report by using a general Pd-catalyzed tandem reaction of β-hydroxy carbonyl compounds with aryl halides bearing an ortho-nitro, -ester or -cyano substituent. A key retro-aldol/α-arylation reaction is involved that merges classic Pd cross-coupling chemistry with novel Pd-promoted retro-aldol C-C activation to produce α-arylated ketones or esters. Subsequent intramolecular condensation of the carbonyl with the ortho-synthon gives target heterocycles. The use of common, commercially available and cheap substrates and catalyst system adds additional synthetic advantages to the conceptual significance.

Having developed the one-pot triacetylation of indolin-3-ones, we have now devised a simple two-step reaction sequences to produce di- and mono-acetylated indoles from indolin-2-ones. The indolin-2-ones were first subjected to acetylation in the presence of acetic anhydride and a catalytic amount of N,N-dimethylaminopyridine to give 2-acetoxy-1,3-diacetylindoles. Subsequently, an enzyme-assisted deacetylation resulted in the chemoselective deprotection of the acetoxy group to produce 1,3-diacetyl-2-hydroxyindoles. However, a chemical deacetylation of 2-acetoxy-1,3-diacetylinoles under mild basic or acidic conditions resulted in the formation of 3-acetyl-2-hydroxyindoles.

The synthesis, structure-activity relationships (SAR) and structural data of a series of indolin-2-one inhibitors of RET tyrosine kinase are described. These compounds were designed to explore the available space around the indolinone scaffold within RET active site. Several substitutions at different positions were tested and biochemical data were used to draw a molecular model of steric and electrostatic interactions, which can be applied to design more potent and selective RET inhibitors. The crystal structures of RET kinase domain in complex with three inhibitors were solved. All three compounds bound in the ATP pocket and formed two hydrogen bonds with the kinase hinge region. Crystallographic analysis confirmed predictions from molecular modelling and helped refine SAR results. These data provide important information for the development of indolinone inhibitors for the treatment of RET-driven cancers.

Fourteen new 3-[4-(amino/methylsulfonyl)phenyl]methylene-indolin-2-one derivatives were synthesized. Six compounds displayed potent inhibitory activities against COX-1/2 and 5-LOX with IC50 in the range of 0.10-9.87 μM. Particularly, 10f exhibited well balanced inhibitory action on these enzymes (IC50 = 0.10-0.56 μM). More importantly, 10f and several other compounds had comparable or stronger anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities, but better gastric tolerability in vivo, as compared with darbufelone mesilate and tenidap sodium. Therefore, our findings may aid in the design of new and safe anti-inflammatory reagents for the intervention of painful inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis at clinic.

-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Efficient syntheses of the phytoalexins brassilexin, sinalexin, and analogues are demonstrated through the application of the Vilsmeier formylation to indoline-2-thiones followed by a new aqueous ammonia workup procedure. Similarly, a very concise two-pot synthesis of the phytoalexins wasalexins using sequential formylation-amination of indolin-2-ones is described. Remarkably, this novel aqueous ammonia workup allows the sequential one-pot formylation-amination, expanding substantially the scope of the Vilsmeier formylation of both indoline-2-thiones and indolin-2-ones. The examination of the formylation-amination reaction and optimization of conditions, as well as the syntheses and antifungal activities of several brassilexin analogues, are reported.

- Synthesis and biological evaluations of 3-substituted indolin-2-ones: A novel class of tyrosine kinase inhibitors that exhibit selectivity toward particular receptor tyrosine kinases
-
3-Substituted indolin-2-ones have been designed and synthesized as a novel class of tyrosine kinase inhibitors which exhibit selectivity toward different receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). These compounds have been evaluated for their relative inhibitory properties against a panel of RTKs in intact cells. By modifying the 3-substituted indolin-2-ones, we have identified compounds which showed selective inhibition of the ligand- dependent autophosphorylation of various RTKs at submicromolar levels in cells. Structure-activity analysis for these compounds and their relative potency and selectivity to inhibit particular RTKs has determined that (1) 3- [(five-membered heteroaryl ring)methylidenyl]indolin-2-ones are highly specific against the VEGF (Flk-1) RTK activity, (2) 3-(substituted benzylidenyl)indolin-2-ones containing bulky group(s) in the phenyl ring at the C-3 position of indolin-2-ones showed high selectivity toward the EGF and Her-2 RTKs, and (3) the compound containing an extended side chain at the C- 3 position of the indolin-2-one (16) exhibited high potency and selectivity when tested against the PDGF and VEGF (Flk-1) RTKs. Recent published crystallographic data for two of these 3-substituted indolin-2-ones provides a rationale to suggest that these compounds may bind in the ATP binding pocket of RTKs. The structure-activity analysis supports the use of subsets of these compounds as specific chemical leads for the development of RTK- specific drugs with broad application for the treatment of human diseases.

- Osmium(VIII) Catalyzed Kinetics and Mechanism of Indoles Oxidation with Aryl-N-Haloamines in Alkaline Medium
-
The kinetics of oxidation of the title substrates by sodium N-haloarylsulfonamides (or aryl-N-haloamines), chloramine-T (CAT), bromamine-T (BAT), chloramine-B (CAB), and bromamine-B (BAB), catalyzed by osmium(VIII) in alkaline medium has been studied at 30 deg C.The corresponding oxindoles and arylsulfonamides have been characterized as reaction products. The reaction rate shows a first-order dependence each on 0 and 0, a fractional-order on , and an inverse first-order on ->.Addition of arylsulfonamide, chloride and bromide, and variation of ionic strength of the medium have no effect on the reaction rate.There is a negative effect of dielectric constant of the solvent.Activation parameters have been calculated from the Arrhenius and Eyring plots.Hammet correlation of substituent effects indicates and LFE relationship with ? = -1.0, showing the formation of an electron deficient transition state.From enthalpy-entropy relationships and Exner correlations, the isokinetic temperatures (333 K and 326 K) have been determined for the reactions of CAT and BAT, respectively.Proton inventory studies in H2O-D2O mixtures have shown the involvement of a single exchangeable proton of OH- ion in the transition state.A mechanism consistent with the observed kinetics has been proposed.

- Preparation of indoles and oxindoles from N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2-alkylanilines
-
Treatment of dilithiated N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)anilines 1 with dimethylformamide or carbon dioxide furnishes intermediates 3, 5, that are easily converted to N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)indoles 4 and oxindoles (indol-2(3H)-ones, 7), respectively. Condensation of dilithiated 1 with N-methoxy-N-methylamides provides ketones 9 which are cyclized upon trifluoroacetic acid treatment to either 2-substituted 1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)indoles 10 or 2-substituted indoles 11 depending on the reaction time. This general methodology has been applied to efficient synthesis of 1,2-alkyl-bridged indoles 12, 1,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenz[c,d]indole (16), 2a,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenz[c,d]indol-2(1H)-one (18), and 1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (21).
