- Discovery of Salidroside-Derivated Glycoside Analogues as Novel Angiogenesis Agents to Treat Diabetic Hind Limb Ischemia
-
Therapeutic angiogenesis is a potential therapeutic strategy for hind limb ischemia (HLI); however, currently, there are no small-molecule drugs capable of inducing it at the clinical level. Activating the hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) pathway in skeletal muscle induces the secretion of angiogenic factors and thus is an attractive therapeutic angiogenesis strategy. Using salidroside, a natural glycosidic compound as a lead, we performed a structure-activity relationship (SAR) study for developing a more effective and druggable angiogenesis agent. We found a novel glycoside scaffold compound (C-30) with better efficacy than salidroside in enhancing the accumulation of the HIF-1α protein and stimulating the paracrine functions of skeletal muscle cells. This in turn significantly increased the angiogenic potential of vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells and, subsequently, induced the formation of mature, functional blood vessels in diabetic and nondiabetic HLI mice. Together, this study offers a novel, promising small-molecule-based therapeutic strategy for treating HLI.

- Catalytic δ-hydroxyalkynone rearrangement in the stereoselective total synthesis of centrolobine, engelheptanoxides A and C and analogues
-
A catalytic stereoselective total synthesis of centrolobine and engelheptanoxides A and C has been completed via a metal-free catalytic δ-hydroxyalkynone rearrangement to 2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran-4-one and diastereoselective hydrogenation to the all syn-2,4,6-trisubstituted pyran strategy. The onliest required chirality was introduced by Jacobsen kinetic resolution, which further directed the diastereoselective hydrogenation. A first stereoselective synthesis of engelheptanoxide A is also accomplished. The analogues and derivatives of centrolobine and engelheptanoxides prepared were evaluated for antitubercular activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv ATCC 27294.

- Efficient Syntheses of Diverse, Medicinally Relevant Targets Planned by Computer and Executed in the Laboratory
-
The Chematica program was used to autonomously design synthetic pathways to eight structurally diverse targets, including seven commercially valuable bioactive substances and one natural product. All of these computer-planned routes were successfully executed in the laboratory and offer significant yield improvements and cost savings over previous approaches, provide alternatives to patented routes, or produce targets that were not synthesized previously. Although computers have demonstrated the ability to challenge humans in various games of strategy, their use in the automated planning of organic syntheses remains unprecedented. As a result of the impact that such a tool could have on the synthetic community, the past half century has seen numerous attempts to create in silico chemical intelligence. However, there has not been a successful demonstration of a synthetic route designed by machine and then executed in the laboratory. Here, we describe an experiment where the software program Chematica designed syntheses leading to eight commercially valuable and/or medicinally relevant targets; in each case tested, Chematica significantly improved on previous approaches or identified efficient routes to targets for which previous synthetic attempts had failed. These results indicate that now and in the future, chemists can finally benefit from having an “in silico colleague” that constantly learns, never forgets, and will never retire. Multistep synthetic routes to eight structurally diverse and medicinally relevant targets were planned autonomously by the Chematica computer program, which combines expert chemical knowledge with network-search and artificial-intelligence algorithms. All of the proposed syntheses were successfully executed in the laboratory and offer substantial yield improvements and cost savings over previous approaches or provide the first documented route to a given target. These results provide the long-awaited validation of a computer program in practically relevant synthetic design.

- Structure-activity relationships of α-ketooxazole inhibitors of fatty acid amide hydrolase
-
A systematic study of the structure-activity relationships of 2b (OL-135), a potent inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), is detailed targeting the C2 acyl side chain. A series of aryl replacements or substituents for the terminal phenyl group provided effective inhibitors (e.g., 5c, aryl = 1-napthyl, K, - 2.6 nM), with 5hh (aryl -3-ClPh, Ki = 900 pM) being 5-fold more potent than 2b. Conformationally restricted C2 side chains were examined, and many provided exceptionally potent inhibitors, of which 11j (ethylbiphenyl side chain) was established to be a 750 pM inhibitor. A systematic series of heteroatoms (O, NMe, S), electron-withdrawing groups (SO, SO2), and amides positioned within and hydroxyl substitutions on the linking side chain were investigated, which typically led to a loss in potency. The most tolerant positions provided effective inhibitors (12p, 6-position S, Ki = 3 nM, or 13d, 2-position OH, Ki = 8 nM) comparable in potency to 2b. Proteome-wide screening of selected inhibitors from the systematic series of >100 candidates prepared revealed that they are selective for FAAH over all other mammalian serine proteases.

- β1- and β2-adrenoceptor antagonist activity of a series of para- substituted N-isopropylphenoxypropanolamines
-
To further explore the structure-activity relationships of β- adrenoceptor (β-AR) antagonists, a series of 25 para-substituted N- isopropylphenoxy-propanolamines were synthesised, nine of which are new compounds. All have been examined for their ability to antagonise β1-ARs in rat atria and β2-ARs in rat trachea. Substitution in the para-position of the phenyl ring is thought to confer β3-specificity and the selectivity of these compounds for the β1-AR ranges from 1.5-234. None of the compounds tested were selective for the β2-AR. Of the 25 compounds studied, 22 had reasonable (pA2 > 7) potencies for the rat β1-AR. Only compound 1 displayed reasonable (pA2 > 7) potency for the rat β2-AR. Twenty two compounds were used as the training set for comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) of antagonist potency (pA2) at the rat β1- and β2-ARs. The inclusion of a number of additional physical characteristics improved the QSAR analysis over models derived solely using the CoMFA electrostatic and steric fields. The final models predicted the β1- and β2-AR potency of the compounds in the training set with high accuracy (r2 = 0.93 and 0.86 respectively). The final β1-AR model predicted the β1-potencies of two out of the three test compounds, not included in the training set, with residual PA2 values 2-AR model (residual pA2 values -0.38).

Starting with p-tert-butyl-calix[4]arene, two O-protected phenolic units are attached via ether links in 1,3-position by reaction with the corresponding tosylates. After deprotection, the new calix[4]arene is formed by fragment condensation with 2,6-tobromomethylated 4-alkylphenols.

1,7-diarylheptanoids are a varied natural product class in which 'linear' types appear to be biosynthetic precursors to macro(carbo)cyclic (3), macro(oxa)cyclic (4), and condensed polycyclic (5) examples.Various methods (suitable for radiolabelling) are described for constructing 'linear' diarylheptanoids, including Grignard couplings (employing activated magnesium) with arylpropanals and oxazonium salts (11a), (11h), (15a), and (15b)> and dithian alkylation (15c)>.Alkyl-lithium treatment of the benzyloxydithian (19b) gave 1,2,3-triphenylcyclopropane.Syntheses via trialkylcyanoborates were frustrated by disproportionation of the intermediate trialkylboranes.The diarylheptanoids synthesised (11a-h) and (15a-e) include synthetic and biosynthetic precursors to meta,meta-bridged biphenyls and related macrocyclic ethers.
