Bis-aryl Urea Derivatives as Potent and Selective LIM Kinase (Limk) Inhibitors
摘要:
The discovery/optimization of bis-aryl ureas as Limk inhibitors to obtain high potency and selectivity and appropriate pharmacokinetic properties through systematic SAR studies is reported. Docking studies supported the observed SAR. Optimized Limk inhibitors had high biochemical potency (IC50 < 25 nM), excellent selectivity against ROCK and JNK kinases (>400-fold), potent inhibition of cofilin phosphorylation in A7r5, PC-3, and CEM-SS T cells (IC50 < 1 mu M), and good in vitro and in vivo pharmacokinetic properties. In the profiling against a panel of 61 kinases, compound 18b at 1 mu M inhibited only Limk1 and STK16 with >= 80% inhibition. Compounds 18b and 18f were highly efficient in inhibiting cell-invasion/migration in PC-3 cells. In addition, compound 18w was demonstrated to be effective on reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) on rat eyes. Taken together, these data demonstrated that we had developed a novel class of bis-aryl urea derived potent and selective Limk inhibitors.

catalytic amounts of an organosuperbase such as Barton's base enables this transformation to proceed with high yields and exquisite substrate functional‐group tolerance under ambient CO2 pressure and mild temperature. This report also provides the first proof‐of‐principle for the single‐operation synthesis of elusive seven‐membered ring cyclic urethanes.

An effective one‐pot method for the conversion of carbondioxide, ethyleneoxide, and amines to 3‐aryl‐2‐oxazolidinones has been developed. This one‐pot method consists of two parallel reactions and a subsequent cascade reaction between the two products of the corresponding parallel reactions. Notably, the binaryionicliquids of 1‐butyl‐3‐methyl‐imidazolium bromide and 1‐butyl‐3‐methyl‐imidazolium
A one-step procedure for efficient synthesis of oxazolidinone only using ethylene carbonate and arylamines in the presence of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]octane (DABCO) was developed. In most cases, moderate to high yield of products were obtained. This reaction can be considered a carbon dioxide fixation reaction since ethylene carbonate was synthesized via reaction of ethylene oxide with carbon dioxide.
