- Substituted oxindol-3-ylidenes as AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitors
-
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a central metabolic regulator that promotes cancer growth and survival under hypoxia and plays a role in the maintenance of cancer stem cells. A major challenge to interrogating the potential of targeting AMPK in cancer is the lack of potent and selective small molecule inhibitors. Compound C has been widely used as an AMPK inhibitor, but it lacks potency and has a poor selectivity profile. The multi-kinase inhibitor, sunitinib, has demonstrated potent nanomolar inhibition of AMPK activity and has scope for modification. Here, we have designed and synthesized several series of oxindoles to determine the structural requirements for AMPK inhibition and to improve selectivity. We identified two potent, novel oxindole-based AMPK inhibitors that were designed to interact with the DFG motif in the ATP-binding site of AMPK, this key feature evades interaction with the common recptor tyrosine kinase targets of sunitinib. Cellular engagement of AMPK by these oxindoles was confirmed by the inhibition of phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), a known substrate of AMPK, in myeloid leukemia cells. Interestingly, although AMPK is highly expressed and activated in K562 cells these oxindole-based AMPK inhibitors did not impact cell viability or result in significant cytotoxicity. Our studies serve as a platform for the further development of oxindole-based AMPK inhibitors with therapeutic potential.

- 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.

- Method for preparing indole and derivatives thereof
-
The invention discloses a method for preparing indole and derivatives of indole. The method for preparing indole and the derivatives of indole is characterized by comprising the following two steps that (1) a catalyst, a ligand and alkali are added in a reaction tube, under the protection of nitrogen, beta-hydroxy ketone or ester is reacted with a mixed solution of o-nitro aryl halides for 3 to 8h in an oil bath pan at the temperature of 90 to 120 DEG C, and then cooled to room temperature after reaction, and extracted, washed, dried and subjected to chromatography to obtain a product of o-nitro alpha-aryl ketone or ester; (2) o-nitro alpha-aryl ketone or ester obtained in the step (1), a reducing agent system and a solvent are added to the reaction tube, and reacted for 3 to 8h at the temperature of 60 to 100 DEG C, and then extracted, washed, dried and subjected to chromatography after being reacted to obtain a target product of indole and the derivatives of indole. Reaction raw materials, the catalyst, the ligand, the alkali and the solvent used in the invention are all industrial commodities, and simple and readily available, wide in sources, cheap in price, and further very stable in performances, and with no need for special storage conditions; in addition, the method for preparing indole and the derivatives of indole disclosed by the invention has the characteristics of low cost, high yield, simple process, less pollution and the like.

- 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.

- Palladium-Catalyzed C-H Activation and Cyclization of Anilides with 2-Iodoacetates and 2-Iodobenzoates: An Efficient Method toward Oxindoles and Phenanthridones
-
A concise approach to the synthesis of oxindoles and phenanthridones from anilides is described. In the presence of catalytic amount of Pd(OAc)2, 2-iodoacetates and 2-iodobenzoates can be used to functionalize ortho C-H bond of anilides, which subsequently undergo intramolecular cyclization to give the products. A possible reaction mechanism that involves a PdII/PdIV catalytic cycle is proposed with the support of detailed mechanistic studies.

- Structure-based design and parallel synthesis of N-benzyl isatin oximes as JNK3 MAP kinase inhibitors
-
A series of N-benzylated isatin oximes were developed as inhibitors of the mitogen-activated kinase, JNK3. X-ray crystallographic structures aided in the design and synthesis of novel, selective compounds, that inhibit JNK3, but not p38 MAP kinase and provided key insights into understanding the behavior of gatekeeper residue methionine-146 in determining target selectivity for this series.

- Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution with N-Methoxy-N-acylnitrenium Ions Generated from N-Chloro-N-methoxyamides: Syntheses of Nitrogen Heterocyclic Compounds Bearing a N-Methoxyamide Group
-
N-Methoxy-N-acylnitrenium ions (II), generated by treatment of N-chloro-N-methoxyamides with silver carbonate in trifluoroacetic acid, react with arenes to give N-aryl-N-methoxyamides in good yields.In the case of the intramolecular cyclization of N-chloro-N-methoxy-2-phenylacetamides, the mode of cyclization is highly dependent on the nature of ortho or para substituent groups.Nitrenium ions II can primarily attack three positions (C-1, C-2, and C-6) of a phenyl ring.Normally II attack C-6.On the other hand, when the ortho position was occupied with a substituent group, II attacked both C-2 and C-6, in the former case followed by a 1,2-substituent migration, which was proved by a deuterium labeling experiment.Especially, when a methoxy group is substituted on ortho or para position, II attack C-1 due to the effect of the electron-releasing methoxy group to give spiro dienone compounds 39.A general discussion of the utility and mechanistic details of these reactions is presented.
