Coupling of 4-(4-aminophenyl)butyric acid 1 with acyl halides in both organic and aqueous media were found to produce large amount of oligomeric materials. By using an in situ chlorotrimethylsilane protection/activation procedure, these oligomers were sup

A total of nine difluoro derivatives of N-phenylcinnamamides have been synthesized from fluoro-substituted cinnamic acids and anilines in order to investigate the formation of polymorphs arising due to the conformational flexibility around the amide and vinyl group. Among them, four compounds have been found to exist in multiple polymorphic forms, which includes concomitant polymorphism, solvatomorphism, and packing polymorphism, while the remaining five compounds display monomorphic behavior. Crystal structure analyses of all the forms belonging to these four compounds reveal that, although the molecules are primarily held by strong N-H?O hydrogen bonds, the relative interplay of weak C-H?F, C-H?O, C-H?π, and π?πinteractions allows the flexible molecules to adopt different orientations and exhibit polymorphism. These forms interestingly also display different thermal stabilities, and they have been quantified by intermolecular interaction topological analyses. The occurrence of different primary packing motifs in these crystal structures has been further investigated by the crystal structure prediction (CSP) computational method, wherein an energy landscape of an unsubstituted N-phenylcinnamamide was generated and a number of hypothetical structures were accessed with experimentally obtained crystal structures of its difluoro-substituted derivatives.

Cdc37 associates kinase clients to Hsp90 and promotes the development of cancers. Celastrol, a natural friedelane triterpenoid, can disrupt the Hsp90-Cdc37 interaction to provide antitumor effects. In this study, 31 new celastrol derivatives, 2a - 2d , 3a - 3g , and 4a - 4t , were designed and synthesized, and their Hsp90-Cdc37 disruption activities and antiproliferative activities against cancer cells were evaluated. Among these compounds, 4f , with the highest tumor cell selectivity (15.4-fold), potent Hsp90-Cdc37 disruption activity (IC50= 1.9 μM), and antiproliferative activity against MDA-MB-231 cells (IC50= 0.2 μM), was selected as the lead compound. Further studies demonstrated 4f has strong antitumor activities both in vitro and in vivo through disrupting the Hsp90-Cdc37 interaction and inhibiting angiogenesis. In addition, 4f exhibited less toxicity than celastrol and showed a good pharmacokinetics profile in vivo. These findings suggest that 4f may be a promising candidate for development of new cancer therapies.

Cinnamic acid, isolated from cinnamon bark, is a natural product with excellent bioactivity, and it effectively binds with cyclohexanedione to form novel 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitors. According to the active sub-structure combinat
