Acylthiourea, Acylurea, and Acylguanidine Derivatives with Potent Hedgehog Inhibiting Activity
摘要:
The Smoothened (Smo) receptor is the major transducer of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway. On the basis of the structure of the acylthiourea Smo antagonist (MRT-10), a number of different series of analogous compounds were prepared by ligand-based structural optimization. The acylthioureas, originally identified as actives, were converted into the corresponding acylureas or acylguanidines. In each series, similar structural trends delivered potent compounds with IC50 values in the nanomolar range with respect to the inhibition of the Hh signaling pathway in various cell-based assays and of BODIPY-cyclopamine binding to human Smo. The similarity of their biological activities, in spite of discrete structural differences, may reveal the existence of hydrogen-bonding interactions between the ligands and the receptor pocket. Biological potency of compounds 61, 72, and 86 (MRT-83) were comparable to those of the clinical candidate GDC-0449. These findings suggest that these original molecules will help delineate Smo and Hh functions and can be developed as potential anticancer agents.

A highly porous Zn‐based metal–organicframework (MOF) IRMOF‐3 was covalently decorated with pyridine‐2‐aldehyde. The free amine group of IRMOF‐3 upon condensation with pyridine‐2‐aldehyde affords a bidentate Schiff‐base moiety in the porous matrix. The Schiff base moieties are availed to anchor copper(II) ions to display the catalyst’s utility towards catalytic reactions. The catalyst was characterized
高度多孔的锌基金属-有机骨架(MOF)IRMOF-3与吡啶-2-醛共价修饰。与吡啶-2-醛缩合后,IRMOF-3的游离胺基在多孔基质中提供双齿席夫碱部分。席夫碱部分可用于锚定铜(II)离子,以显示催化剂对催化反应的效用。通过紫外/可见光和红外光谱,粉末XRD光谱,SEM能量色散X射线光谱和氮吸附测量对催化剂进行了表征。在Cs 2 CO 3存在下,在温和条件下(90°C),该催化剂在DMSO介质中催化含氮杂环与芳基溴的N-芳基化反应具有出色的催化活性。。由于MOF的孔内存在活性位点,因此多孔催化剂表现出对底物的尺寸选择性。在多达五个连续的催化循环中,锚固的配合物似乎在催化反应过程中不会被浸出或分解,这显示出优于均相催化的实际优势。

An efficient procedure for Chan–Lam coupling reactions of arylboronic acids with 1H-imidazole derivatives using N,O-bidentate ligand-tunable copper(II) complexes as a catalyst under base-free conditions has been developed. This protocol features mild reaction conditions, high yields and compatibility with different functional groups, providing a direct and facile strategy for the construction of C–N

A highly efficient copper-catalyzed system using phosphoramidite as ligands was applied to N-arylation of alkylamines and N(H)-heterocycles with aryl iodides and heteroarylbromides. The reactions were carried out in relative mild conditions and good to excellent yields were obtained.

A family of Cu(I) complexes [Cu(L1–4)(Cl)(PPh3)] (C1–C4) were synthesized from bidentate ligands L1–L4 (where L1 = (E)-2-(2-benzylidene-1-phenylhydrazinyl)pyridine, L2 = (E)-N,N-dimethyl-4-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)aniline, L3 = (E)-2-(2-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-1-phenylhydrazinyl)pyridine and L4 = (E)-2-(2-(4-nitrobenzylidene)-1-phenylhydrazinyl)pyridine) and characterized. The structure
significantly affected by the Cu loading. This catalytic system also displayed good activity in the synthesis of N-arylsulfonamides from arylboronic acids and tosyl azide. It was highly efficient in gram-scale reactions and could be reused five times. The advantages of low cost, easy preparation, good durability and facile recovery make the fiber catalyst attractive.
