6-Cyano Analogues of Bedaquiline as Less Lipophilic and Potentially Safer Diarylquinolines for Tuberculosis
摘要:
Bedaquiline (1) is a new drug for tuberculosis and the first of the diarylquinoline class. It demonstrates excellent efficacy against TB but induces phospholipidosis at high doses, has a long terminal elimination half-life (due to its high lipophilicity), and exhibits potent hERG channel inhibition, resulting in clinical QTc interval prolongation. A number of structural ring A analogues of bedaquiline have been prepared and evaluated for their anti-M.tb activity (MIC90), with a view to their possible application as less lipophilic second generation compounds. It was previously observed that a range of 6 -substituted analogues of 1 demonstrated a positive correlation between potency (MIC90) toward M.tb and drug lipophilicity. Contrary to this trend, we discovered, by virtue of a clogP/M.tb score, that a 6-cyano (CN) substituent provides a substantial reduction in lipophilicity with only modest effects on MIC values, suggesting this substituent as a useful tool in the search for effective and safer analogues of 1.

An environmentally benign protocol for the transamidation of carboxamides with amines using sulfated tungstate, as a heterogeneous catalyst, has been developed. The method has been successfully applied to the synthesis of a wide range of aromatic and aliphatic amides and phthalimides. Efficient transformation, mild reaction conditions, easy product isolation and the potential reusability of the catalyst

A strategy involving palladium-catalysed aromatic C-H functionalisation/intramolecular alkenylation provides a convenient and direct synthesis of 3-alkylideneoxindoles. In the presence of 5 mol% of PdCl(2)MeCN(2) and AgOCOCF(3), a wide variety of N-cinnamoylanilines gave 3-alkylideneoxindoles in moderate to good yield.
A procedure on palladium-catalyzed selective aminocarbonylation of styrenes with nitroarenes for the synthesis of α,β-unsaturatedamides has been developed. A range of substituted α,β-unsaturatedamides were synthesized in moderate to good yields. Interestingly, nitroarenes act as both a nitrogen source and oxidant, and Mo(CO)6 acts as a solid CO source and reductant in this catalytic system.

N-Aryl amides are an important class of compounds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical chemistry. Rapid and low-cost synthesis of N-aryl amides remains in high demand. Herein, we disclose an operationally simple process to access N-aryl amides directly from readily available nitroarenes and carboxylicacids as coupling substrates. This method involves the in situ activation of carboxylicacids to acyloxyphosphonium

electrochemical transformation and the high reactivity of chlorine. By utilizing Cl3CCN as the chloride source, donating up to all three chloride atom, the reaction could generate and consume the chlorine in situ on demand to achieve the chlorination of aromaticcompounds and electrodeficient alkenes.
