- Healable luminescent self-assembly supramolecular metallogels possessing lanthanide (Eu/Tb) dependent rheological and morphological properties
-
Herein we present the use of lanthanide directed self-assembly formation (Ln(III) = Eu(III), Tb(III)) in the generation of luminescent supramolecular polymers, that when swelled with methanol give rise to self-healing supramolecular gels. These were analyzed by using luminescent and 1H NMR titrations studies, allowing for the identification of the various species involved in the subsequent Ln(III)-gel formation. These highly luminescent gels could be mixed to give a variety of luminescent colors depending on their Eu(III):Tb(III) stoichiometric ratios. Imaging and rheological studies showed that these gels prepared using only Eu(III) or only Tb(III) have different morphological and rheological properties, that are also different from those determined upon forming gels by mixing of Eu(III) and Tb(III) gels. Hence, our results demonstrate for the first time the crucial role the lanthanide ions play in the supramolecular polymerization process, which is in principle a host-guest interaction, and consequently in the self-healing properties of the corresponding gels, which are dictated by the same host-guest interactions.

- Hydrosilylative reduction of primary amides to primary amines catalyzed by a terminal [Ni-OH] complex
-
A terminal [Ni-OH] complex1, supported by triflamide-functionalized NHC ligands, catalyzes the hydrosilylative reduction of a range of primary amides into primary amines in good to excellent yields under base-free conditions with key functional group tolerance. Catalyst1is also effective for the reduction of a variety of tertiary and secondary amides. In contrast to literature reports, the reactivity of1towards amide reduction follows an inverse trend,i.e., 1° amide > 3° amide > 2° amide. The reaction does not follow a usual dehydration pathway.

- Synthesis, Characterization, and Catalytic Reactivity of {CoNO}8PCP Pincer Complexes
-
The reaction of coordinatively unsaturated Co(II) PCP pincer complexes with nitric oxide leads to the formation of new, air-stable, diamagnetic mono nitrosyl compounds. The synthesis and characterization of five- and four-coordinate Co(III) and Co(I) nitrosyl pincer complexes based on three different ligand scaffolds is described. Passing NO through a solution of [Co(PCPNMe-iPr)Cl], [Co(PCPO-iPr)Cl] or [Co(PCPCH2-iPr)Br] led to the formation of the low-spin complex [Co(PCP-iPr)(NO)X] with a strongly bent NO ligand. Treatment of the latter species with (X = Cl, Br) AgBF4 led to chloride abstraction and formation of cationic square-planar Co(I) complexes of the type [Co(PCP-iPr)(NO)]+ featuring a linear NO group. This reaction could be viewed as a formal two electron reduction of the metal center by the NO radical from Co(III) to Co(I), if NO is counted as NO+. Hence, these systems can be described as {CoNO}8 according to the Enemark-Feltham convention. X-ray structures, spectroscopic and electrochemical data of all nitrosyl complexes are presented. Preliminary studies show that [Co(PCPNMe-iPr)(NO)]+ catalyzes efficiently the reductive hydroboration of nitriles with pinacolborane (HBpin) forming an intermediate {CoNO}8 hydride species.

- A State-of-the-Art Heterogeneous Catalyst for Efficient and General Nitrile Hydrogenation
-
Cobalt-doped hybrid materials consisting of metal oxides and carbon derived from chitin were prepared, characterized and tested for industrially relevant nitrile hydrogenations. The optimal catalyst supported onto MgO showed, after pyrolysis at 700 °C, magnesium oxide nanocubes decorated with carbon-enveloped Co nanoparticles. This special structure allows for the selective hydrogenation of diverse and demanding nitriles to the corresponding primary amines under mild conditions (e.g. 70 °C, 20 bar H2). The advantage of this novel catalytic material is showcased for industrially important substrates, including adipodinitrile, picolinonitrile, and fatty acid nitriles. Notably, the developed system outperformed all other tested commercial catalysts, for example, Raney Nickel and even noble-metal-based systems in these transformations.

- A cobalt phosphide catalyst for the hydrogenation of nitriles
-
The study of metal phosphide catalysts for organic synthesis is rare. We present, for the first time, a well-defined nano-cobalt phosphide (nano-Co2P) that can serve as a new class of catalysts for the hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines. While earth-abundant metal catalysts for nitrile hydrogenation generally suffer from air-instability (pyrophoricity), low activity and the need for harsh reaction conditions, nano-Co2P shows both air-stability and remarkably high activity for the hydrogenation of valeronitrile with an excellent turnover number exceeding 58000, which is over 20- to 500-fold greater than that of those previously reported. Moreover, nano-Co2P efficiently promotes the hydrogenation of a wide range of nitriles, which include di- and tetra-nitriles, to the corresponding primary amines even under just 1 bar of H2 pressure, far milder than the conventional reaction conditions. Detailed spectroscopic studies reveal that the high performance of nano-Co2P is attributed to its air-stable metallic nature and the increase of the d-electron density of Co near the Fermi level by the phosphidation of Co, which thus leads to the accelerated activation of both nitrile and H2. Such a phosphidation provides a promising method for the design of an advanced catalyst with high activity and stability in highly efficient and environmentally benign hydrogenations. This journal is

- Nitrile Synthesis by Aerobic Oxidation of Primary Amines and in situ Generated Imines from Aldehydes and Ammonium Salt with Grubbs Catalyst
-
Herein, a Grubbs-catalyzed route for the synthesis of nitriles via the aerobic oxidation of primary amines is reported. This reaction accommodates a variety of substrates, including simple primary amines, sterically hindered β,β-disubstituted amines, allylamine, benzylamines, and α-amino esters. Reaction compatibility with various functionalities is also noted, particularly with alkenes, alkynes, halogens, esters, silyl ethers, and free hydroxyl groups. The nitriles were also synthesized via the oxidation of imines generated from aldehydes and NH4OAc in situ. (Figure presented.).

Reduction of nitriles to silylated primary amines was achieved by combination of 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDS) as the hydrosilane and a catalytic amount of Co(OPIV)2 (PIV = COtBu) associated with isocyanide ligands. The resulting silylated amines were subjected to acid hydrolysis or treatment with acid chlorides to give the corresponding primary amines or imides in good yields. One-pot synthesis of primary amides to primary amines with hydrosilanes was also achieved by iron-cobalt dual catalyst systems.

We report an efficient catalytic Staudinger reduction at room temperature that enables the preparation of a structurally diverse set of amines from azides in excellent yields. The reaction is based on the use of catalytic amounts of triphenylphosphine as a phosphine source and diphenyldisiloxane as a reducing agent. Our catalytic Staudinger reduction exhibits a high chemoselectivity, as exemplified by reduction of azides over other common functionalities, including nitriles, alkenes, alkynes, esters, and ketones.

- Switching the Selectivity of Cobalt-Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Nitriles
-
Previous studies of base metals for catalytic hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines or secondary aldimines focus on designing complexes with elaborate structures. Herein, we report "twin" catalytic systems where the selectivity of nitrile hydrogenation can be tuned by including or omitting the ligand HN(CH2CH2PiPr2)2 (iPrPNHP). Simply treating CoBr2 with NaHBEt3 generates cobalt particles, which can catalyze the hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines with high selectivity and broad functional group tolerance. Ligating CoBr2 with iPrPNHP followed by the addition of NaHBEt3, however, forms a homogeneous catalyst favoring secondary aldimines for both hydrogenation and hydrogenative coupling of benzonitrile.

- Hydrogenation of Nitriles and Ketones Catalyzed by an Air-Stable Bisphosphine Mn(I) Complex
-
Efficient hydrogenations of nitriles and ketones with molecular hydrogen catalyzed by a well-defined bench-stable bisphosphine Mn(I) complex are described. These reactions are environmentally benign and atomically economic, implementing an inexpensive, earth-abundant nonprecious metal catalyst. A range of aromatic and aliphatic nitriles and ketones were efficiently converted into primary amines and alcohols, respectively, in good to excellent yields. The hydrogenation of nitriles proceeds at 100 °C with catalyst loading of 2 mol % and 20 mol % base (t-BuOK), while the hydrogenation of ketones takes place already at 50 °C, with a catalyst loading of 1 mol % and 5 mol % of base. In both cases, a hydrogen pressure of 50 bar was applied.

The selective hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines using a bench-stable cobalt precatalyst under 4 atm of H2 is reported herein. The catalyst precursor was reduced in situ using NaHBEt3, and the resulting Lewis acid formed, BEt3, was found to be integral to the observed catalysis. Mechanistic insights gleaned from para-hydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) transfer NMR studies revealed that the pairwise hydrogenation of nitriles proceeded through a Co(I/III) redox process.

- Systematic variation of the benzenesulfonamide part of the GluN2A selective NMDA receptor antagonist TCN-201
-
GluN2A subunit containing N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are highly involved in various physiological processes in the central nervous system, but also in some diseases, such as anxiety, depression and schizophrenia. However, the role of GluN2A subunit containing NMDARs in pathological processes is not exactly elucidated. In order to obtain potent and selective inhibitors of GluN2A subunit containing NMDARs, the selective negative allosteric modulator 2 was systematically modified at the benzenesulfonamide part. The activity of the test compounds was recorded in two electrode voltage clamp experiments using Xenopus laevis oocytes expressing exclusively NMDARs with GluN1a and GluN2A subunits. It was found that halogen atoms in 3-position of the benzenesulfonamide part result in high GluN2A antagonistic activity. With an IC50 value of 204?nM the 3-bromo derivative 5i (N-{4-[(2-benzoylhydrazino)carbonyl]benzyl}-3-bromobenzenesulfonamide) has 2.5-fold higher antagonistic activity than the lead compound 2 and represents our new lead compound.

- Selective HDAC inhibitors with potent oral activity against leukemia and colorectal cancer: Design, structure-activity relationship and anti-tumor activity study
-
Previously, we reported the discovery of a series of N-hydroxycinnamamide-based HDAC inhibitors, among which compound 11y exhibited high HDAC1/3 selectivity. In this current study, structural derivatization of 11y led to a new series of benzamide based HDAC inhibitors. Most of the compounds exhibited high HDACs inhibitory potency. Compound 11a (with 4-methoxybenzoyl as N-substituent in the cap and 4-(aminomethyl) benzoyl as the linker group) exhibited selectivity against HDAC1 to some extent, and showed potent antiproliferative activity against several tumor cell lines. In?vivo studies revealed that compound 11a displayed potent oral antitumor activity in both hematological tumor cell U937 xenograft model and solid tumor cell HCT116 xenograft model with no obvious toxicity. Further modification of benzamide 3, 11a and 19 afforded new thienyl and phenyl compounds (50a, 50b, 63a, 63b and 63c) with dramatic HDAC1 and HDAC2 dual selectivity, and the fluorine containing compound 56, with moderate HDAC3 selectivity.

- Stable and Inert Cobalt Catalysts for Highly Selective and Practical Hydrogenation of C≡N and C=O Bonds
-
Novel heterogeneous cobalt-based catalysts have been prepared by pyrolysis of cobalt complexes with nitrogen ligands on different inorganic supports. The activity and selectivity of the resulting materials in the hydrogenation of nitriles and carbonyl compounds is strongly influenced by the modification of the support and the nitrogen-containing ligand. The optimal catalyst system ([Co(OAc)2/Phenα-Al2O3]-800 = Cat. E) allows for efficient reduction of both aromatic and aliphatic nitriles including industrially relevant dinitriles to primary amines under mild conditions. The generality and practicability of this system is further demonstrated in the hydrogenation of diverse aliphatic, aromatic, and heterocyclic ketones as well as aldehydes, which are readily reduced to the corresponding alcohols.

- Development of Allosteric Hydrazide-Containing Class i Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors for Use in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
-
One of the biggest hurdles yet to be overcome for the continued improvement of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors is finding alternative motifs equipotent to the classic and ubiquitously used hydroxamic acid. The N-hydroxyl group of this motif is highly subject to sulfation/glucoronidation-based inactivation in humans; compounds containing this motif require much higher dosing in clinic to achieve therapeutic concentrations. With the goal of developing a second generation of HDAC inhibitors lacking this hydroxamate, we designed a series of potent and selective class I HDAC inhibitors using a hydrazide motif. These inhibitors are impervious to glucuronidation and demonstrate allosteric inhibition. In vitro and ex vivo characterization of our lead analogues' efficacy, selectivity, and toxicity profiles demonstrate that they possess low nanomolar activity against models of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are at least 100-fold more selective for AML than solid immortalized cells such as HEK293 or human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

A new bifunctional pincer ligand framework bearing pendent proton-responsive hydroxyl groups was prepared and metalated with Ru(II) and subsequently isolated in four discrete protonation states. Stoichiometric reactions with H2 and HBPin showed facile E-H (E = H or BPin) activation across a Ru(II)-O bond, providing access to unusual Ru-H species with strong interactions with neighboring proton and boron atoms. These complexes were found to promote the catalytic hydroboration of ketones and nitriles under mild conditions, and the activity was highly dependent on the ligand's protonation state. Mechanistic experiments revealed a crucial role of the pendent hydroxyl groups for catalytic activity.

A series of structurally modified Tm3+ DOTAM-alkyl complexes as potential PARACEST MRI contrast agents has been synthesized with the aim to decrease the overall positive charge associated with these molecules and increase their biocompatibility. Two types of structural modification have been performed, an introduction of terminal carboxylate arms to the alkyl side chains and a conjugation of one of the alkyl side chains with aspartic acid. Detailed evaluation of the magnetic resonance imaging chemical exchange contrast associated with the structurally modified contrast agents has been performed. In contrast to the acutely toxic Tm3+ DOTAM-alkyl complexes, the structurally modified compounds were found to be tolerated well during in vivo MRI studies in mice; however, only the aspartic acid modified chelates produced an amide proton-based PARACEST signal.

On the basis of this structural information, we designed BAY 58-2667 derivatives and tested their effects on soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) activity. Derivative 20 activated sGC 4.8-fold more than BAY 58-2667. Co-crystallization of 20 with the Ns H-NOX domain revealed that the increased conformational distortion at the C-terminal region of αF helix containing 110-114 residues contributes to the higher activation triggered by 20.

- Synthesis of N-benzyl- and N-phenyl-2-amino-4,5-dihydrothiazoles and thioureas and evaluation as modulators of the isoforms of nitric oxide synthase
-
Inhibition of the isoforms of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) has important applications in therapy of several diseases, including cancer. Using 1400W [N-(3-aminomethylbenzyl)acetamidine], thiocitrulline and N δ-(4,5-dihydrothiazol-2-yl)ornithine as lead compounds, series of N-benzyl- and N-phenyl-2-amino-4,5-dihydrothiazoles and thioureas were designed as inhibitors of NOS. Ring-substituted benzyl and phenyl isothiocyanates were synthesised by condensation of the corresponding amines with thiophosgene and addition of ammonia gave the corresponding thioureas in high yields. The substituted 2-amino-4,5-dihydrothiazoles were approached by two routes. Treatment of simple benzylamines with 2-methylthio-4,5-dihydrothiazole at 180 °C afforded the corresponding 2-benzylamino-4,5-dihydrothiazoles. For less nucleophilic amines and those carrying more thermally labile substituents, the 4,5-dihydrothiazoles were approached by acid-catalysed cyclisation of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)thioureas. This cyclisation was shown to proceed by an SN2-like process. Modest inhibitory activity was shown by most of the thioureas and 4,5-dihydrothiazoles, with N-(3-aminomethylphenyl)thiourea (IC50=13 μM vs rat neuronal NOS and IC50=23 μM vs rat inducible NOS) and 2-(3-aminomethylphenylamino)-4,5-dihydrothiazole (IC50=13 μM vs rat neuronal NOS and IC50=19 μM vs human inducible NOS) being the most potent. Several thioureas and 4,5-dihydrothiazoles were found to stimulate the activity of human inducible NOS in a time-dependent manner.

- Catalytic, Enantioselective Aldol Reaction with an Artificial Aldolase Assembled from a Primary Amine and an Antibody
-
The aldol addition of acetone to aldehydes 1-5 is catalyzed by primary amine 14.The pH profile is consistent with catalysis by the free amine, with pKa=8.55 for its conjugate acid.The catalytic cycle involves rate-determining coupling of the aldehyde with enamine III formed by condensation of the amine and acetone.Condensation with the aldehyde to form imine 16 inhibits catalysis (k16=7.8 mM).Assembly of amine 14 with an antibody against quaternary ammonium hapten 19 yields an artificial aldolase which catalyzes the reaction.The catalyst is approximately 600 times more reactive than amine 14 alone.The pKa of the amino group is unged within the complex.The antibody catalyzes the formation of amino nitrile 17 in the presence of cyanide, suggesting that condensation of acetone with amine 14 is favored by complexation with the antibody, an effect which might account for catalysis.The reaction with aldehyde 1 is si enantioface selective and gives aldol (SS)-6 (>95percent de) from (S)-1 and aldol (RS)-6 from (R)-1 (65percent de) in 1:2.8 ratio.These experiments show the principles of a novel approach for the design of an artificial aldolase.

- Inhibitors of acyl-CoA:cholesterol O-acyl transferase (ACAT) as hypocholesterolemic agents. 8. Incorporation of amide or amine functionalities into a series of disubstituted ureas and carbamates. Effects of ACAT inhibition in vitro and efficacy in vivo
-
A series of disubstituted ureas containing amide or amine groups was prepared and evaluated for their ability to inhibit acyl-CoA:cholesterol O- acyl transferase in vitro and to lower plasma total cholesterol in a variety of cholesterol-fed rat models in vivo. The presence of polar or ionizable functionalities within this class of compounds may impart greater aqueous solubility to those compounds and thus allow improved transport to the enzyme location within the intestinal enterocyte. Compounds from this class exhibit good cholesterol lowering in a chronic cholesterol-fed rat model of hypercholesterolemia even when dosed in an aqueous vehicle. In general, the amine-containing compounds were more potent and efficacious than the amides in the acute rat model of hypercholesterolemia. Further structure-activity relationship studies showed that the preferred position of the amide/amine group was β to the urea moiety and not α, and that in this series, the presence of a secondary amine (or amide) proton is required for good in vitro potency. One of these compounds, 9n(-), lowered plasma total cholesterol (- 47%) and elevated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (+256%) when dosed in an aqueous vehicle to rats with preestablished hypercholesterolemia.
