Potent and Orally Bioavailable Inverse Agonists of RORγt Resulting from Structure-Based Design
摘要:
Retinoic acid receptor related orphan receptor gamma t (ROR gamma t), has been identified as the master regulator of T(H)17-cell function and development, making it an attractive target for the treatment of autoimmune diseases by a small-molecule approach. Herein, we describe our investigations on a series of 4-aryl-thienyl acetamides, which were guided by insights from X-ray cocrystal structures. Efforts in targeting the cofactor-recruitment site from the 4-aryl group on the thiophene led to a series of potent binders with nanomolar activity in a primary human-T(H)17-cell assay. The observation of a DMSO molecule binding in a subpocket outside the LBD inspired the introduction of an acetamide into the benzylic position of these compounds. Hereby, a hydrogen-bond interaction of the introduced acetamide oxygen with the backbone amide of Glu379 was established. This greatly enhanced the cellular activity of previously weakly cell-active compounds. The best compounds combined potent inhibition of IL-17 release with favorable PK in rodents, with compound 32 representing a promising starting point for future investigations.

A new catalyst system capable of selective chloride functionalization in the Pd-catalyzedamination of 3,2- and 5,2- Br/Cl-pyridines is reported. A reaction optimization strategy employing ligand parametrization led to the identification of 1,1′-bis[bis(dimethylamino)phosphino]ferrocene “DMAPF”, a readily available yet previously unutilized diphosphine, as a uniquely effective ligand for this transformation
Herbicidal 3- and/or 5-halogenomethyl-pyrid-2-yloxyphenoxy compounds and processes for making and using the same. Intermediates for making these compounds and their preparation are also disclosed. Thus, for example, 2-chloro-5-trichloromethylpyridine is prepared by a liquid phase chlorination of 3-methylpyridine under the influence of ultra violet light.
