Further studies showed discodermolide to stabilize microtubules via the taxoid binding site on β-tubulin. Unlike paclitaxel, it is not a substrate for P-glycoprotein transport, is potent in paclitaxel-resistant cell lines with β-tubulin mutations, exhibits better water solubility, and can act synergistically when combined with paclitaxel treatment. For this reason, discodermolide has been the focus of many synthetic and biological studies, culminating in a 60 gram-scale synthesis and Phase I/II clinical trials carried out by Novartis in 2004. Despite the great level of interest from the scientific community, much about this compound’s behavior in vivo is still unknown.

    Organic Chemistry: An Indian Journal Opinion | Vol 15 Iss 7 The Van Leusen Imidazole Synthesis is used to Synthesise Imidazole-Based Medicinal Molecules Amelia Williams * Editorial Office, Organic Chemistry: An Indian Journal, UK *Corresponding author: Amelia Williams, Editorial Office, Organic Chemistry: An Indian Journal, UK Tel: 91-9906518251189; E-Mail: [email protected] Received: July 05, 2021; Accepted: July 15, 2018; Published: July 30, 2021 Opinion In medicinal chemistry, imidazole and its derivatives are one of the most important and universal heterocycles. These compounds demonstrate a wide range of significant pharmacological or biological actions due to their unique structural properties, and they are frequently explored and used by pharmaceutical companies for medication discovery. The van Leusen reaction based on Tosylmethylisocyanides (TosMICs) is one of the most appropriate techniques for synthetizing imidazole-based pharmaceutical compounds, and it is becoming more popular due to its benefits. Using the van Leusen immobilisation method, we discuss current achievements in the chemical synthesis and bioactivity of imidazole-containing therapeutic small molecules in this study. The imidazole ring is a five-membered, nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold that is extensively found in natural goods and pharmaceutical compounds. Furthermore, imidazole-based heterocyclic compounds, which play an important role in medicinal chemistry, have been used to treat a variety of disorders, and novel derivatives for medicinal application are being developed. It is favorable for imidazole groups to mix with numerous receptors and enzymes in biological systems, through diverse weak contacts, resulting in a range of biological activities, due to the unusual structural characteristic of imidazole scaffold with a worthy electron-rich property.

Wierońska1, Monika Woźniak1, Paulina Cieślik1, Ryszard Bugno1, Jakub Staroń1 & Andrzej J. Bojarski1 A series of 5-aryl-1-alkylimidazole derivatives was synthesized using the van Leusen multicomponent reaction. The chemotype is the first example of low-basicity scaffolds exhibiting high affinity for 75-HT receptor together with agonist function. The chosen lead compounds 3-(1-ethyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-5- iodo-1H-indole (AGH-107, 1o, Ki 5-HT7 = 6 nM, EC50 = 19 nM, 176-fold selectivity over 5-HT1AR) and 1e (5-methoxy analogue, Ki 5-HT7 = 30 nM, EC50 = 60 nM) exhibited high selectivity over related CNS targets, high metabolic stability and low toxicity in HEK-293 and HepG2 cell cultures. A rapid absorption to the blood, high blood-brain barrier permeation and a very high peak concentration in the brain (Cmax = 2723 ng/g) were found for 1o after i.p. (5 mg/kg) administration in mice. The compound was found active in novel object recognition test in mice, at 0.5, 1 and 5 mg/kg. Docking to 5-HT7R homology models indicated a plausible binding mode which explain the unusually high selectivity over the related CNS targets. Halogen bond formation between the most potent derivatives and the receptor is consistent with both the docking results and SAR.

  • Synthesis of Phorbazoles and Breitfussins Analogues — Ahmed Mossad Abdelhady KJE-3900 Master Thesis in Chemistry – May 2016
    Faculty of Natural Sciences and Technology Synthesis of phorbazoles and breitfussins analogues — Ahmed Mossad Abdelhady KJE-3900 Master thesis in Chemistry – May 2016 ii I ABSTRACT Breitfussins are a group of a closely related heterocyclic compounds. They consist of a tetracyclic structure with an indole, an oxazole and a pyrrole. The breitfussins exhibit interesting biological activity and analogues synthesis and biological evaluation is ongoing. Phorbazoles have a structural similarity with breitfussins in which a phenol replaces the indole. As a part of this, synthesis of phorbazoles, breitfussins and analogues is underway in the Bayer group. This thesis contains a description for the work done to synthesis a small library of a small group of phorbazoles analogues and one breitfussins analogue. During the synthesis of the phorbazoles analogues, an isocyanide based oxazole synthesis was performed using TosMIC. Iodination of the oxazole was tested with different approaches to obtain 2,4-diiodinated and 2-iodinated oxazole derivatives. For introducing a Pyrrole on the oxazole, a Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reaction was performed. As a final step, selective de-protections were performed to obtain the diversity of the analogues. The breitfussins analogue was formed in 2 steps from the commercially available starting material, methyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylate 13. iii iv II ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am using this opportunity to thank everyone who supported me during my master’s. Firstly, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, Ass. Prof. Annette Bayer for giving me the opportunity to work on this project.

    1 Department of Chemistry, Anugrah Memorial College, Gaya B. Sc. Chemistry (Hons) Part – III Paper: VII – Organic Chemistry (Gr. – B) Unit II: Heterocyclic Compounds Topic – Pyrrole Lecture: #2 By: Dr. Rajesh Ranjan Pandey (Assistant Professor) PYRROLE (Continuation) Lecture - 2 Contents: Preparations (in continuation: 5 - 10) 2 Preparations (in continuation): 5. From Succinimide: Pyrrole is obtained by the distillation of succinimide over zinc dust. 6. From alkynes: Pyrrole can be prepared by passing a mixture of acetylene and ammonia over red hot tube. Pyrroles can also be prepared by silver-catalyzed cyclization of alkynes with isonitriles, where R2 is an electron-withdrawing group, and R1 is an alkane, aryl group, or ester. The reaction is proposed to proceed via a silver acetylide intermediate. This method is analogous to the azide–alkyne click chemistry used to form azoles. 3 7. Van Leusen reaction: The Van Leusen reaction can be used to form pyrroles, by reaction of tosylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) with an enone in the presence of base, in a Michael addition. A 5-endo cyclization then forms the 5-membered ring, which reacts to eliminate the tosyl group. The last step is tautomerization to the pyrrole. 8. Barton–Zard synthesis: The Barton–Zard synthesis proceeds in a manner similar to the Van Leusen synthesis. An isocyanoacetate reacts with a nitroalkene in a 1,4-addition, followed by 5-endo-dig cyclization, elimination of the nitro group, and tautomerisation. Mechanism: 4 9. Hantzsch pyrrole synthesis: The Hantzsch pyrrole synthesis is the reaction of β-ketoesters with ammonia (or primary amines) and α-haloketones to give substituted pyrroles.

The chosen lead compounds 3-(1-ethyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-5- iodo-1H-indole (AGH-107, 1o, Ki 5-HT7 = 6 nM, EC50 = 19 nM, 176-fold selectivity over 5-HT1AR) and 1e (5-methoxy analogue, Ki 5-HT7 = 30 nM, EC50 = 60 nM) exhibited high selectivity over related CNS targets, high metabolic stability and low toxicity in HEK-293 and HepG2 cell cultures. A rapid absorption to the blood, high blood-brain barrier permeation and a very high peak concentration in the brain (Cmax = 2723 ng/g) were found for 1o after i.p. (5 mg/kg) administration in mice. The compound was found active in novel object recognition test in mice, at 0.5, 1 and 5 mg/kg. Docking to 5-HT7R homology models indicated a plausible binding mode which explain the unusually high selectivity over the related CNS targets. Halogen bond formation between the most potent derivatives and the receptor is consistent with both the docking results and SAR.

  • Tosmic Whitepaper
    Benefits of Using TosMIC in Various Applications Abstract With three important chemical groups—specifically, an isocyanide, a tosyl and an acidic α-carbon in-between—contained within its structure, TosMIC (CAS# 36635-61-7) is a versatile synthetic reagent and building block in organic synthesis. This technical whitepaper highlights three mission-critical industrial applications, namely TosMIC’s roles in converting carbonyl groups to nitriles as a cyanating reagent; synthesizing heterocyclic compounds such as oxazoles, imidazoles and pyrroles; and preparing Knoevenagel-type condensation products. Background Tosylmethyl isocyanidei, or TosMIC, is a colorless solid that can be stored at room temperature without decomposing. Unlike other isocyanides however, TosMIC is effectively odorless1. It has a melting point of 111–113 °C, and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as dimethoxyethane (DME) and tetrahydrofuran (THF)2,3. Structurally, as may be seen in Figure 1, TosMIC’s versatility stems from three key components: the isocyanide (blue) and tosyl (pink) groups, and the acidic α-carbon (red). The isocyanide, which undergoes addition-type reactions, has a carbon atom that usually acts as an electrophilic center for ring-closing reactions (and may double as an active methylene group for secondary reactions)1,4,5. This carbon atom also typically exhibits carbene-like reactivity, which is reflected in the first resonance structure and its canonical hybrid on the right6. Regarding the tosyl, it acts as a good leaving group in the generation of heterocycles4. Finally, the α-position’s reactivity stems from the strong electron- withdrawing effects of the other two groups (though the α-position is also less sterically hindered)1,7.
