We have developed two green, practical, and efficient procedures, including a one-pot one, to synthesize isothiocyanates from amines and carbon disulfide via desulfurization with sodium persulfate. Water is used as the solvent. Basic conditions are necessary for good chemoselectivity for isothiocyanates. Structurally diverse linear and branched alkyl amines and aryl amines are readily converted to isothiocyanates by the two procedures in satisfactory yields. Halogens, benzylic C-H bonds, methylthio, nitro, ester, alkenyl, electron-rich or -deficient (hetero)aryls, acetylenyl, and even phenolic and alcoholic hydroxyls are well tolerated. The one-pot procedure in water can also be used to realize the preparation of chiral isothiocyanates from chiral amines, and the modification of bioactive structures with free amino groups. In large-scale preparation, simple and practical purification procedures independent of column chromatography are developed.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with an excessive accumulation of amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ). Based on the multifactorial nature of AD, preparation of multi-target-directed ligands presents a viable option to address more pathological events at one time. A novel class of asymmetrical disubstituted indolyl thioureas have been designed and synthesized to interact with monoamine oxidase (MAO) and/or amyloid-binding alcohol dehydrogenase (ABAD). The design combines the features of known MAO inhibitors scaffolds (e.g. rasagiline or ladostigil) and a frentizole moiety with potential to interact with ABAD. Evaluation against MAO identified several compounds that inhibited in the low to moderate micromolar range. The most promising compound (19) inhibited human MAO-A and MAO-B with IC50values of 6.34 μM and 0.30 μM, respectively. ABAD activity evaluation did not show any highly potent compound, but the compound series allowed identification of structural features to assist the future development of ABAD inhibitors. Finally, several of the compounds were found to be potent inhibitors of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), preventing the use of the Amplex Red assay to detect hydrogen peroxide produced by MAO, highlighting the need for serious precautions when using an enzyme-coupled assay.

Highly potent and selective small molecule neuropeptide Y Y2 receptor antagonists are reported. The systematic SAR exploration of a hit molecule N-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-4-[hydroxy(diphenyl)methyl]piperidine-1-carbothioamide, identified from HTS, led to the discovery of highly potent NPY Y2 antagonists 16 (CYM 9484) and 54 (CYM 9552) with IC50 values of 19 nM and 12 nM respectively.
