- A simple method of synthesis of 3-carboxy-2,2,5,5-tetraethylpyrrolidine-1-oxyl and preparation of reduction-resistant spin labels and probes of pyrrolidine series
-
Stable free radicals are widely used as molecular probes and labels in various biophysical and biomedical research applications of magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging. Among these radicals, sterically shielded nitroxides of pyrrolidine series demonstrate the highest stability in biological systems. Here, we suggest new convenient procedure for preparation of 3-carboxy-2,2,5,5-tetraethylpyrrolidine-1-oxyl, a reduction-resistant analog of widely used carboxy-Proxyl, from cheap commercially available reagents with the yield exceeding the most optimistic literature data. Several new spin labels and probes of 2,2,5,5-tetraethylpyrrolidine-1-oxyl series were prepared and reduction of these radicals in ascorbate solutions, mice blood and tissue homogenates was studied.

- Scalable On-Demand Production of Purified Diazomethane Suitable for Sensitive Catalytic Reactions
-
We have developed a convenient development-scale reactor (0.44 mol/h) to prepare diazomethane from N-methyl-N-nitroso-p-toluenesulfonamide (MNTS) in ~80% yield. Diazomethane (CH2N2) made with this reactor is extracted into nitrogen gas from the liquid reaction mixture, effectively removing it from reagents and byproducts that may interfere in subsequent reactions. Vertically oriented tubular reactors were used to produce and consume diazomethane in situ. Key features of this reactor include high productivity and correspondingly low reactor volume (reactor volume/liquid flow rate = 6.5 min) and a commercially available gas/liquid separator equipped with a selectively permeating hydrophilic membrane. The design of the reactor keeps the inventory below 53 mg of CH2N2 during normal operation. The reactor was demonstrated by generating CH2N2 that was used in a connected continuous reactor. We evaluated esterification reactions and a continuous Pd-catalyzed cyclopropanation reaction with the reactor and achieved high conversion with 1.5 and 4.1 equiv of MNTS precursor, respectively.

- Biological evaluation of 3-benzylidenechromanones and their spiropyrazolines-based analogues
-
A series of 3-benzylidenechrmanones 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 and their spiropyrazoline analogues 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 were synthesized. X-ray analysis confirms that compounds 2 and 8 crystallize in a monoclinic system in P21/n space groups with one and three molecules in each asymmetric unit. The crystal lattice of the analyzed compounds is enhanced by hydrogen bonds. The primary aim of the study was to evaluate the anti-proliferative potential of 3-benzylidenechromanones and their spiropyrazoline analogues towards four cancer cell lines. Our results indicate that parent compounds 1 and 9 with a phenyl ring at C2 have lower cytotoxic activity against cancer cell lines than their spiropyrazolines analogues. Analysis of IC50 values showed that the compounds 3 and 7 exhibited higher cytotoxic activity against cancer cells, being more active than the reference compound (4-chromanone or quercetin). The results of this study indicate that the incorporation of a pyrazoline ring into the 3-arylideneflavanone results in an improvement of the compounds’ activity and therefore it may be of use in the search of new anticancer agents. Further analysis allowed us to demonstrate the compounds to have a strong inhibitory effect on the cell cycle. For instance, compounds 2, 10 induced 60% of HL-60 cells to be arrested in G2/M phase. Using a DNA-cleavage protection assay we also demonstrated that tested compounds interact with DNA. All compounds at the concentrations corresponding to cytotoxic properties are not toxic towards red blood cells, and do not contribute to hemolysis of RBCs.

- Discovery of Vilaprisan (BAY 1002670): A Highly Potent and Selective Progesterone Receptor Modulator Optimized for Gynecologic Therapies
-
Progesterone plays an important role in the female reproductive system. However, there is also evidence that gynecologic disorders/diseases such as uterine fibroids and endometriosis are progesterone-dependent. Steroidal and non-steroidal selective progesterone receptor modulators (SPRMs) have shown potential for the treatment of such diseases. Steroidal SPRMs, including mifepristone and ulipristal acetate, have proven effective in clinical trials. However, several steroidal SPRMs containing a dimethylamino substituent have been associated with elevated liver enzymes in patients. An earlier drug discovery program identified lonaprisan as a highly selective SPRM that did not show drug-related change in liver enzyme activity. Building on data obtained from that work, here we describe the research program that culminated in the discovery of a novel steroidal SPRM, vilaprisan, which combines an extremely high potency with very favorable drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic properties. Vilaprisan has entered clinical development and is currently undergoing phase 3 clinical trials.

- Method for preparing cycloheptanone from cyclohexanone through one step
-
A method for preparing cycloheptanone from cyclohexanone through one step comprises the following steps: using diazomethane as a reagent to prepare a saturated low alcohol solution, adding cyclohexanone and a diluted acid catalyst to a diazomethane alcohol solution, carrying out a slow addition ring expansion reaction at 10-50 DEG C, and carrying out water vapor distillation to prepare crude cycloheptanone; and rectifying the crude cycloheptanone to obtain cycloheptanone. A saturated C4 or less low alcohol solution of diazomethane is prepared through the following steps: reacting hydrochloric acid with a methylamine solution, adding urea, adding a saturated sodium carbonate solution, carrying out a refluxing reaction, adding diluted sulfuric acid, reacting sulfuric acid with a sodium nitrite solution, adding a strong alkali solution to generate a diazomethane gas, introducing the diazomethane gas to a cooled receiving bottle provided with the C4 or less low alcohol. The method has the advantages of short synthetic route, simplicity in operation, environmental protection, high product yield, substantial reduction of the cost, and high facilitation of industrial production.

An efficient chromium(II)-mediated reductive coupling reaction of various CBrF2-containing molecules and aldehydes has been developed. This reaction proceeds presumably via the monofluorinated dichromium(III) intermediate generated by the carbon-fluorine bond activation, and provides a general and straightforward access to synthesize a variety of (E)- or (Z)-β-fluoroallylic alcohols in a highly stereoselective manner. Based on the novel reductive coupling, four types of fluoroalkene dipeptide analogues could be stereoselectively prepared.

- Synthesis of acacetin and resveratrol 3,5-di-O-β-glucopyranoside using lipase-catalyzed regioselective deacetylation of polyphenol glycoside peracetates as the key step
-
Acacetin and resveratrol 3,5-di-O-β-glucopyranoside were synthesized from naturally abundant naringin and piceid in 65% and 62% overall yield, respectively. The key steps were the regioselective deacetylation of the peracetates of the glycosylated forms with Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozym 435) and Burkholderia cepacia lipase (Amano PS-IM). Deacetylation occurred exclusively at the least hindered position of the aromatic moieties and all acetyl groups in the sugar side chain remained intact. This excellent selectivity enabled regiospecific transformation of the liberated phenolic hydroxy groups, resulting in efficient synthesis of the target molecules.

- Cationic mixed micelles as reaction medium for hydrolysis reactions
-
The influence of cationic mixed micelles composed of quartenary ammonium surfactants on hydrolysis reactions has been studied in detail. The basic hydrolysis of N-methyl-N-nitroso-p-toluene sulphonamide has been chosen as the reaction probe, while mixed micelles composed of lauryl trimethyl ammonium chloride and octadecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride with different molar ratios were studied as the reaction medium. The ion-exchange pseudophase model was used to fit the experimental results to obtain the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the reaction. The result show that the hydrophobic character of the mixed micelles drives the association of the substrate to them, leading to a local increase of reactant concentrations at the micellar interface and, therefore, to a catalytic effect. By tuning the molar ratio of the mixed micelles it is possible to control substrate binding affinity and thus the catalytic efficiency of the reaction medium.

- First enantiospecific syntheses of marine merosesquiterpenes neopetrosiquinones A and B: Evaluation of biological activity

The first enantiospecific syntheses of neopetrosiquinones A (6) and B (7), two merosesquiterpenes isolated from the deep-water sponge Neopetrosia cf. proxima, from the labdane diterpene trans-communic acid (10) have been achieved. A key step of the synthetic sequence is the simultaneous aromatization of the C ring and the benzylic oxidation on C-7 of an advanced intermediate, mediated by the oxygen-DDQ system. The in vitro antiproliferative activities of neopetrosiquinone B (7) and of the synthetic intermediates 8 and 9 against human breast (MCF-7), lung (A-549), and colon (T-84) tumor cell lines have been assayed. The most potent was compound 9 (IC50 = 4.1 μM), which was twice as active as natural compound 7 (IC50 = 8.3 μM) against A-549 cells. In addition, the treatment with these compounds resulted in an induction of apoptosis. These findings indicate that the terpene benzoquinones reported here might be potentially useful as anticancer agents.

- ω-alkynyl lipid surrogates for polyunsaturated fatty acids: Free radical and enzymatic oxidations
-
Lipid and lipid metabolite profiling are important parameters in understanding the pathogenesis of many diseases. Alkynylated polyunsaturated fatty acids are potentially useful probes for tracking the fate of fatty acid metabolites. The nonenzymatic and enzymatic oxidations of ω-alkynyl linoleic acid and ω-alkynyl arachidonic acid were compared to that of linoleic and arachidonic acid. There was no detectable difference in the primary products of nonenzymatic oxidation, which comprised cis,trans-hydroxy fatty acids. Similar hydroxy fatty acid products were formed when ω-alkynyl linoleic acid and ω-alkynyl arachidonic acid were reacted with lipoxygenase enzymes that introduce oxygen at different positions in the carbon chains. The rates of oxidation of ω-alkynylated fatty acids were reduced compared to those of the natural fatty acids. Cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 did not oxidize alkynyl linoleic but efficiently oxidized alkynyl arachidonic acid. The products were identified as alkynyl 11-hydroxy-eicosatetraenoic acid, alkynyl 11-hydroxy-8,9-epoxy-eicosatrienoic acid, and alkynyl prostaglandins. This deviation from the metabolic profile of arachidonic acid may limit the utility of alkynyl arachidonic acid in the tracking of cyclooxygenase-based lipid oxidation. The formation of alkynyl 11-hydroxy-8,9-epoxy-eicosatrienoic acid compared to alkynyl prostaglandins suggests that the ω-alkyne group causes a conformational change in the fatty acid bound to the enzyme, which reduces the efficiency of cyclization of dioxalanyl intermediates to endoperoxide intermediates. Overall, ω-alkynyl linoleic acid and ω-alkynyl arachidonic acid appear to be metabolically competent surrogates for tracking the fate of polyunsaturated fatty acids when looking at models involving autoxidation and oxidation by lipoxygenases.

-
Leishmaniasis and Chagas are diseases caused by parasitic protozoans that affect the poorest population in the World, causing a high mortality and morbidity. As a result of highly toxic and long-term treatments, the discovery of novel, safe and more efficacious drugs is essential. In this work, the in vitro antiparasitic activity and mammalian cytotoxicity of three natural tirucallane triterpenoids, isolated from leaves of Schinus terebinthifolius (Anacardiaceae), and nine semi-synthetic derivatives were investigated against Leishmania (L.) infantum and Trypanosoma cruzi. Trypomastigotes of T. cruzi were the most susceptible parasites and seven compounds demonstrated a trypanocidal activity with IC50 values in the range between 15 and 58 μg/mL. Four compounds demonstrated selectivity towards the intracellular amastigotes of Leishmania, with IC50 values in the range between 28 and 97 μg/mL. The complete characterization of triterpenoids was afforded after thorough analysis of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data as well as electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Additionally, structure-activity relationships were performed using Decision Trees.

- Synthesis and anti-cancer activity of some novel C-17 analogs of ursolic and oleanolic acids
-
A series of seventeen novel analogs of ursolic and oleanolic acid were synthesized (60-98 %), and evaluated for their anti-cancer potential against a panel of eight human cancer cell lines. Compounds (3-10) showed comparable or better activities than their respective parent compounds against SiHa and HeLa (Cervix), A-549 (Lung), and IMR-32 (Neuroblastoma) cancer cell lines. Significantly, among the bromoalkyl esters (11-19), compound 13 showed promising anti-cancer activity against Leukemia THP-1 cell line at 10 μM concentration. In this series, it is interesting to note that the increase in chain length has an adverse effect on the activity.

- Chemoenzymatic preparation of (6R)-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-one: A ubiquitous structural motif of biologically active lactones
-
A chemoenzymatic synthesis of an enantiopure 6-substituted 5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-one using bromobenzene as a starting material is presented. This important structural motif is found in a large number of chiral lactones that present a wide range of biological activities. The key features of the preparation include enzymatic dioxygenation of bromobenzene using Escherichia coli JM109 (pDTG601), microwave-assisted acyloin cleavage, and tin mediated lactonization. The stereochemical assignment for the alcohol was confirmed by NMR analysis of Moshers derivatives.

- Synthesis of new N-(arylcyclopropyl)acetamides and N-(arylvinyl)acetamides as conformationally-restricted ligands for melatonin receptors
-
N-(Arylcyclopropyl)acetamides and N-(arylvinyl)acetamides or methyl ureas have been prepared as constrained analogues of melatonin. The affinity of these new compounds for chicken brain melatonin receptors and recombinant human MT1 and MT2 receptors was evaluated using 2-[ 125I]-iodomelatonin as radioligand. Strict ethylenic or cyclopropyl analogues of the commercialized agonist agomelatine (Valdoxan) were equipotent to agomelatine in binding bioassays. However, the ethylenic analogue was more effective than the cyclopropyl one in the melanophore aggregation bioassay, but was still less potent than the disubstituted 2,7-dimethoxy- naphtalenic compounds.

- 3-Trimethylsilylcyclobutylidene. the γ-effect of silicon on carbenes
-
3-Trimethylsilylcyclobutylidene was generated by pyrolysis of the sodium salt of the tosylhydrazone derivative of 3-trimethylsilylcyclobutanone. This carbene converts to 1-trimethylsilylbicyclobutane as the major product. A labeling study shows that this intramolecular rearrangement product comes from 1,3-hydrogen migration to the carbenic center and not 1,3-silyl migration. Computational studies show two carbene minimum energy conformations, with the lower energy conformation displaying a large stabilizing interaction of the carbene center with the rear lobe of the C3-Si bond. In this conformation, the trimethylsilyl group cannot migrate to the carbene center, and the most favorable process is 1,3-hydrogen migration. When the carbene is generated photochemically in methanol, it reacts by a protonation mechanism giving the highly stabilized 3-trimethylsilylcyclobutyl carbocation as an intermediate. When generated in dimethylamine as solvent, the carbene undergoes preferred attack of this nucleophilic solvent from the back of this C-Si rear lobe stabilized carbene.

- Structure-activity relationship for (+)-taxifolin isolated from silymarin as an inhibitor of amyloid β aggregation
-
Silymarin, the seed extract of Silybium marianum, has preventive effects against Alzheimer's disease-like pathogenesis in vivo. We isolated (+)-taxifolin (4) from silymarin as an inhibitor of aggregation of the 42- residue amyloid -protein. Structure-activity relationship studies revealed the 30,40-dihydroxyl groups to be critical to the anti-aggregative ability, whereas the 7-hydroxyl group and the stereochemistry at positions 2 and 3 were not important.
