- Enantioselective synthesis of tunable chiral pyridine-aminophosphine ligands and their applications in asymmetric hydrogenation
-
A small library of tunable chiral pyridine-aminophosphine ligands were enantioselectively synthesized based on chiral 2-(pyridin-2-yl)-substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline scaffolds, which were obtained in high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities via ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of 2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinolines. The protocol features a wide substrate scope and mild reaction conditions, enabling scalable synthesis. These chiral P,N ligands were successfully applied in the Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of benchmark olefins and challenging seven-membered cyclic imines including benzazepines and benzodiazepines. Excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivity (up to 99% ee and >20:1 dr), and/or unprecedented chemoselectivity were obtained in the asymmetric hydrogenation of 2,4-diaryl-3H-benzo[b]azepines and 2,4-diaryl-3H-benzo[b][1,4]diazepines.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of quinoline salicylic acids as P-selectin antagonists
-
Leukocyte recruitment of sites of inflammation and tissue injury involves leukocyte rolling along the endothelial wall, followed by firm adherence of the leukocyte, and finally transmigration of the leukocyte across cell junctions into the underlying tissue. The initial rolling step is mediated by the interaction of leukocyte glycoproteins containing active moieties such as sialyl Lewisx (sLex) with P-selectin expressed on endothelial cells. Consequently, inhibition of this interaction by means of a small molecule P-selectin antagonist is an attractive strategy for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as arthritis. High-throughput screening of the Wyeth chemical library identified the quinoline salicylic acid class of compounds (1) as antagonists of P-selectin, with potency in in vitro and cell-based assays far superior to that of sLex. Through iterative medicinal chemistry, we identified analogues with improved P-selectin activity, decreased inhibition of dihydrooratate dehydrogenase, and acceptable CYP profiles. Lead compound 36 was efficacious in the rat AIA model of rheumatoid arthritis.

- 2-(4-Chlorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[H] quinoline-4-carboxylic acid (PSI-697): Identification of a clinical candidate from the quinoline salicylic acid series of P-selectin antagonists
-
P-selectin-PSGL-1 interaction causes rolling of leukocytes on the endothelial cell surface, which subsequently leads to firm adherence and leukocyte transmigration through the vessel wall into the surrounding tissues. P-selectin is upregulated on the surface of both platelets and endothelium in a variety of atherosclerosis-associated conditions. Consequently, inhibition of this interaction by means of a small molecule P-selectin antagonist is an attractive strategy for the treatment of atherosclerosis. High-throughput screening and subsequent analoging had led to the identification of compound 1 as the lead candidate. Herein, we report the continuation of this work and the discovery of a second-generation series, the tetrahydrobenzoquinoline salicylic acids. These compounds have improved pharmacokinetic properties, and a number of them have shown oral efficacy in mouse and rat models of atherogenesis and vascular injury. The lead 31 (PSI-697), is currently in clinical development for the treatment of atherothrombotic vascular events.
