Isocyanates are useful building blocks for the synthesis of amides, although their widespread use has been limited by their high reactivity, which often results in poor functional group tolerance and a propensity to oligomerize. Herein, a rhodium-catalyzed synthesis of amides is described coupling boroxines with blocked (masked) isocyanates. The success of the reaction hinges on the ability to form

This study is based on our attempts to further explore the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of VX-148 (3) in an attempt to identify inosine 5'-mono-phosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) inhibitors superior to mycophenolic acid. A five-point pharmacophore developed using structurally diverse, known IMPDH inhibitors guided further design of novel analogs of 3. Several conventional as well as novel medicinal chemistry strategies were tried. The combined structure-and ligand-based approaches culminated in a few analogs with either retained or slightly higher potency. The compounds which retained the potency were also checked for their ability to inhibit human peripheral blood mononuclear cells proliferation. This study illuminates the stringent structural requirements and strict SAR for IMPDH II inhibition.

Six structural motifs based on the initial (lead) structure of merbarone were designed, prepared, and tested against the glioblastoma LN-229 cell line. Three different structural moieties were modified in the search for optimal glioblastoma activity: the 1,3-diazinane moiety, the aryl moiety, and the heteroatom linker. Calculated molecular descriptors such as lipophilicity (ClogP), acidic strength (calculated pK(a)), and polar surface area (PSA) were used to design a diverse structural library of these compounds. From six different structural motifs and 136 compounds, a handful of examples with moderate (100 mu g/ml), good (10 mu g/ml) and excellent (1 mu g/ml) glioblastoma activity were elucidated.

Novel quinoline derivatives bearing acyclic semicarbazones were prepared and their chemical structures as well as the relative stereochemistry were confirmed. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their c‐Met kinase inhibitory activity and their cytotoxicity against the cell lines HT‐29, MKN‐45, and MDA‐MB‐231 in vitro. Several potent compounds were further evaluated against A549 cells.
