- Dual acting oximes designed for therapeutic decontamination of reactive organophosphatesviacatalytic inactivation and acetylcholinesterase reactivation
-
A conventional approach in the therapeutic decontamination of reactive organophosphate (OP) relies on chemical OP degradation by oxime compounds. However, their efficacy is limited due to their lack of activity in the reactivation of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), the primary target of OP. Here, we describe a set of α-nucleophile oxime derivatives which are newly identified for such dual modes of action. Thus, we prepared a 9-member oxime library, each composed of an OP-reactive oxime core linked to an amine-terminated scaffold, which varied through anN-alkyl functionalization. This library was screened by enzyme assays performed with human and electric eel subtypes of OP-inactivated AChE, which led to identifying three oxime leads that displayed significant enhancements in reactivation activity comparable to 2-PAM. They were able to reactivate both enzymes inactivated by three OP types including paraoxon, chlorpyrifos and malaoxon, suggesting their broad spectrum of OP susceptibility. All compounds in the library were able to retain catalytic reactivity in paraoxon inactivation by rates increased up to 5 or 8-fold relative to diacetylmonoxime (DAM) under controlled conditions at pH (8.0, 10.5) and temperature (17, 37 °C). Finally, selected lead compounds displayed superb efficacy in paraoxon decontamination on porcine skinin vitro. In summary, we addressed an unmet need in therapeutic OP decontamination by designing and validating a series of congeneric oximes that display dual modes of action.

- Structure-property relationship study of n-(hydroxy)peptides for the design of self-assembled parallel β-sheets
-
The design of novel and functional biomimetic foldamers remains a major challenge in creating mimics of native protein structures. Herein, we report the stabilization of a remarkably short β-sheet by incorporating N-(hydroxy)glycine (Hyg) residues into the backbone of peptides. These peptide- peptoid hybrids form unique parallel β-sheet structures by selfassembly upon hydrogenation. Our spectroscopic and crystallographic data suggest that the local conformational perturbations induced by N-(hydroxy)amides are outweighed by a network of strong interstrand hydrogen bonds.

- Hydrophilic scaffolds of oxime as the potent catalytic inactivator of reactive organophosphate
-
Despite its efficacy as a skin decontaminant of reactive organophosphates (OP), Dekon 139—a potassium salt of 2,3-butanedione monooxime (DAM)—is associated with adverse events related to percutaneous absorption largely due to its small size and lipophilicity. In order to address this physicochemical issue, we synthesized and evaluated the activity of a focused library of 14 hydrophilic oxime compounds, each designed with either a DAM or monoisonitrosoacetone (MINA) oxime tethered to a polar or charged scaffold in order to optimize the size, hydrophilicity, and oxime acidity. High-throughput colorimetric assays were performed with paraoxon (POX) as a model OP to determine the kinetics of POX inactivation by these compounds under various pH and temperature conditions. This primary screening led to the identification of 6 lead compounds, predominantly in the MINA series, which displayed superb catalytic activity by reducing the POX half-life (t1/2) by 2–3 fold relative to Dekon 139. Our mechanistic studies show that POX inactivation by the oxime compounds occurred faster at a higher temperature and in a pH-dependent manner in which the negatively charged oximate species is ≥ 10–fold more effective than the neutral oxime species. Lastly, using one of the lead compounds, we demonstrated its promising efficacy for POX decontamination in porcine skin ex vivo, and showed its potent ability to protect acetylcholine esterase (AChE) through POX inactivation. In summary, we report the rational design and chemical biological validation of novel hydrophilic oximes which address an unmet need in therapeutic OP decontamination.

- Water-Assisted Nitrile Oxide Cycloadditions: Synthesis of Isoxazoles and Stereoselective Syntheses of Isoxazolines and 1,2,4-Oxadiazoles
-
Conventional methods generate nitrile oxides from oxime halides in organic solvents under basic conditions. However, the present work revealed that water-assisted generation of nitrile oxides proceeds under mild acidic conditions (pH 4-5). Cycloadditions of nitrile oxides with alkynes and alkenes easily occurred in water without using catalysts, thus yielding isoxazoles and isoxazolines, respectively, with excellent stereoselectivity toward five- and six-membered cyclic alkenes. A double stereoselective cycloaddition of two units of a nitrile oxide with cyclohexene was also achieved, thus yielding 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives having a unique hybrid isoxazoline-oxadiazole skeleton. Enantiomerically pure isoxazolines were prepared from monoterpenes with a ring strain. In one case, the isoxazoline with a butterfly-like structure was simply prepared, and it might be used as a ligand in asymmetric catalysis.

-
Unusual sigmoidal kinetic profiles in the Machetti-De Sarlo base-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of acrylamide to N-methylnitroacetamide are rationalized by detailed in situ kinetic analysis. A dual role is uncovered in which a substrate acts as a precursor to catalyze its own reaction. Such kinetic studies provide a general protocol for distinguishing among different mechanistic origins of induction periods in complex organic reactions.

- Amidine-Oximes: Reactivators for organophosphate exposure
-
Figure Presented. Figure presented. A new class of amidine-oxime reactivators of organophosphate (OP)-inhibited cholinesterases (ChE) were designed, synthesized, and tested. These compounds represent a novel group of oximes with enhanced capabilities of crossing the blood-brain barrier. Lack of brain penetration is a major limitation for currently used oximes as antidotes of OP poisoning. The concept described herein relies on a combination of an amidine residue and oxime functionality whereby the amidine increases the binding affinity to the ChE and the oxime is responsible for reactivation. Amidine-oximes were tested in vitro and reactivation rates for OP-BuChE were greater than pralidoxime (2-PAM) or monoisonitrosoacetone (MINA). Amidine-oxime reactivation rates for OP-AChE were lower compared to 2-PAM but greater compared with MINA. After pretreatment for 30 min with oximes 15c and 15d (145 μmol/kg, ip) mice were challenged with a soman model compound. In addition, 15d was tested in a post-treatment experiment (145 μmol/kg, ip, administration 5 min after sarin model compound exposure). In both cases, amidine-oximes afforded 100% 24 h survival in an animal model of OP exposure.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel GSK-3β inhibitors as anticancer agents
-
A series of isoxazol-indolin-2-one was designed for GSK-3β inhibitors as novel anticancer agents based on their binding mode analysis in GSK-3β crystal structure. Total 21 compounds were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against two tumor cell lines (DU145 and HT29). Most of the synthesized compounds were potent with above 80% inhibitory activity at 100 μM, and several compounds were examined for inhibitory activity against GSK-3β. Among them, 15(Z) (R1=H, R2=3-Cl-phenyl) was most active with 78% inhibition of tumor cell line (HT29) at 20 μM and 72% inhibition of GSK-3β at 20 μM.

- New structural scaffolds for centrally acting oxime reactivators of phosphylated cholinesterases
-
We describe here the synthesis and activity of a new series of oxime reactivators of cholinesterases (ChEs) that contain tertiary amine or imidazole protonatable functional groups. Equilibration between the neutral and protonated species at physiological pH enables the reactivators to cross the blood-brain barrier and distribute in the CNS aqueous space as dictated by interstitial and cellular pH values. Our structure-activity analysis of 134 novel compounds considers primarily imidazole aldoximes and N-substituted 2- hydroxyiminoacetamides. Reactivation capacities of novel oximes are rank ordered by their relative reactivation rate constants at 0.67 mM compared with 2-pyridinealdoxime methiodide for reactivation of four organophosphate (sarin, cyclosarin, VX, and paraoxon) conjugates of3 human acetylcholinesterase (hAChE). Rank order of the rates differs for reactivation of human butyrylcholinesterase (hBChE) conjugates. The 10 best reactivating oximes, predominantly hydroxyimino acetamide derivatives (for hAChE) and imidazole-containing aldoximes (for hBChE) also exhibited reasonable activity in the reactivation of tabun conjugates. Reactivation kinetics of the lead hydroxyimino acetamide reactivator of hAChE, when analyzed in terms of apparent affinity (1/Kox) and maximum reactivation rate (k2), is superior to the reference uncharged reactivators monoisonitrosoacetone and 2,3-butanedione monoxime and shows potential for further refinement. The disparate pH dependences for reactivation of ChE and the general base-catalyzed oximolysis of acetylthiocholine reveal that distinct reactivator ionization states are involved in the reactivation of ChE conjugates and in conferring nucleophilic reactivity of the oxime group.

- 5-Hydroxy[1,2]oxazinan-3-ones as potential carbapenem and D-ala-D-ala surrogates
-
The title compounds are amino acids whose nitrogen atom is enclosed in a six-membered cyclic hydroxamate bearing a C5-hydroxyl group. They belong to a proposed new family of antibacterial agents targeted to the penicillin receptor. The glycine and alanine members of the family have been synthesized, as racemates, in seven steps from the four-carbon synthon diketene and the tert-butyl esters of N-hydroxyglycine and N-hydroxyalanine. Numerous alternatives to diketene have also been examined, but these lead mainly to five-membered cyclic hydroxamates. The theoretical considerations that have led to this synthetic programme are discussed in some detail. They include analysis of the structures of natural and unnatural penicillin surrogates, analysis of the penicillin pharmacophore, and a treatment of the chemical reaction with which penicillin blocks bacterial cell wall synthesis. The glycine derivative exhibits marginal but real activity vs. Micrococcus luteus. The alanine derivative, which more closely resembles D-ala-D-ala, is fifty times more active. Two five-membered structural isomers of the glycine derivative are inactive.

- A method for the conversion of sulfoximines to sulfones: Application to polymer-bound sulfoximines and to the synthesis of chiral sulfones
-
Reaction of N-alkyl, N-aryl, and N-H sulfoximines with m- chloroperbenzoic acid cleanly gives the corresponding sulfones in high yield. In the case of the cleavage of N-alkyl and N-arylsulfoximines, formation of the corresponding nitroso compounds as the other reaction product was proven. Starting from enantio- and diastereopure sulfoximines, a number of chiral sulfones, including the axially chiral sulfone 6 and the sulfonyl- functionalized homoallylic alcohol 8, have been prepared. Reaction of the enantiopure sulfoximine 30 with Merrifield resin gave the polymer-bound sulfoximine 32. Oxidative cleavage of 32 afforded the sulfone 16 in high yield. Deprotonation of the sulfoximine resin 32 and reaction of Li-32 with benzaldehyde and propanal furnished the β-hydroxysulfoximine resins 33a and 33b, respectively. Oxidative cleavage of 33a and 33b readily afforded the β- hydroxy sulfones 14a and 14b, respectively.
