摘要:
Glycals have served as excellent substrates in the glycosidation reactions with arylamines to construct both C-C and C-N linkages simultaneously. However, the high reactivity and moisture/alcohol-sensitivity is also responsible for several side reactions. Herein we reported that 2,3-unsaturated glycosides can be used as alternatives of glycals to take part in the corresponding glycosidation as well. Therefore, with 10% of InBr3 or InI3 as the catalyst, 2,3-unsaturated glycosides containing various C-1 alkoxy groups reacted with arylamines smoothly and produced the glycosidation products in moderate to good yields as a pair of diastereomers with variant diastereoselectivity.

摘要:
The cytochrome bc1 complex (complex III, cyt bc1) is an essential component of cellular respiration. Cyt bc1 has three core subunits that are required for its catalytic activity: cytochrome b, cytochrome c1, and the Rieske iron-sulfur protein (ISP). Although most fungicides inhibit this enzyme by binding to the cytochrome b subunit, resistance to these fungicides has developed rapidly due to their widespread application. Resistance is mainly associated with mutations in cytochrome b, the only subunit encoded by mitochondrial DNA. Recently, the flexibility and motion of the ISP and its essential role in electron transfer have received intense attention; this leads us to propose a new classification of cyt bc1 inhibitors (three types of Qo inhibitors) that mobilize, restrict, or fix the rotation of the ISP. Importantly, the strengths of the ISP-inhibitor interactions correlate with inhibitor activity and the development of resistance to Qo inhibitors, thereby offering clues for designing novel cyt bc1 inhibitors with high potency and a low risk of resistance. © 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

摘要:
A simple and efficient synthetic protocol for 5-(3-indolyl)-oxazoles has been developed and further used to synthesize a series of novel analogues of natural product pimprinine. All new compounds were identified by 1H NMR, high resolution mass spectrometry, and the structures of 10 and 18o were further confirmed by X-ray crystallographic diffraction analysis. Bioassay conducted at Syngenta showed that several of the synthesized compounds exhibited fungicidal activity. Compounds 10, 17, 18h, 18o, 19h, 19i and 19l all showed effective control of three out of the seven tested phytopathogenic fungi at the highest rate screened. Compounds 17 and 19h in particular showed activity against the four pathogens screened in artificial media; Pythium dissimile, Alternaria solani, Botryotinia fuckeliana and Gibberella zeae. © 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS.

摘要:
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a multifactorial syndrome with several target proteins contributing to its etiology. In this study, we conducted a structure-based design and successfully produced a series of new multi-site AChE inhibitors with a novel framework. Compound 2e, characterized by a central benzamide moiety linked to an isoquinoline at one side and acetophenone at the other, was the most potent candidate with Ki of 6.47 nM against human AChE. Particularly, it showed simultaneous inhibitory effects against BChE, Aβ aggregation, and β-secretase. We therefore conclude that compound 2e is a very promising multi-function lead for the treatment of AD. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

摘要:
Sclerotiorin, a chlorine-containing azaphilone-type natural product, was first isolated from Penicillium sclerotiorum and has been reported to exhibit weak fungicidal activity. Optimization of the substituents at the 3- and 5-positions of the sclerotiorin framework was investigated with the aim of discovering novel fungicides with improved activity. The design of sclerotiorin analogues involved replacing the diene side chain with a phenyl group or an aromatic- or heteroaromatic-containing aliphatic side chain. The designed compounds were synthesized by cycloisomerization and subsequent oxidation of suitable 2-alkynylbenzaldehydes, in which a variety of substituents were introduced using a Sonogashira coupling reaction. The structures of these newly prepared compounds were confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, HRMS and single-crystal X-ray analysis. The antifungal activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated against seven phytopathogenic species. Compounds 3, 9g and 9h were found to have a broad spectrum of fungicidal activity, and these structurally simpler products can be recognized as lead compounds for further optimization.

摘要:
A critical challenge to the fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) is its low-throughput nature due to the necessity of biophysical method-based fragment screening. Herein, a method of pharmacophore-linked fragment virtual screening (PFVS) was successfully developed. Its application yielded the first picomolar-range Q o site inhibitors of the cytochrome bc 1 complex, an important membrane protein for drug and fungicide discovery. Compared with the original hit compound 4 (K i = 881.80 nM, porcine bc 1), the most potent compound 4f displayed 20 507-fold improved binding affinity (K i = 43.00 pM). Compound 4f was proved to be a noncompetitive inhibitor with respect to the substrate cytochrome c, but a competitive inhibitor with respect to the substrate ubiquinol. Additionally, we determined the crystal structure of compound 4e (K i = 83.00 pM) bound to the chicken bc 1 at 2.70 Å resolution, providing a molecular basis for understanding its ultrapotency. To our knowledge, this study is the first application of the FBDD method in the discovery of picomolar inhibitors of a membrane protein. This work demonstrates that the novel PFVS approach is a high-throughput drug discovery method, independent of biophysical screening techniques. © 2012 American Chemical Society.

摘要:
A novel synthetic method of N-cyanocarboxamides has been developed with advantages of mild reaction condition, simpler procedure and easy reactant-product isolation compared with the existing methods. Using this novel method, 16 new N-cyano-1H-imidazole-4-carboxamide derivatives were synthesized and their structures were characterized by spectrum analysis. Further antifungal activity study showed that most of the newly synthesized compounds have good antifungal activity selectively against Rhizoctonia solani among the six fungi tested. Particularly, compound 12h was identified as the most promising candidate with an EC 50 of 2.63 μg/mL against R. solani. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

摘要:
Strobilurins are one of the most important natural products with fungicidal activities and well known for their novel action mode, broad fungicidal spectrum, lower toxicity against mammalian cells, and environmentally benign characteristics. Design and syntheses of strobilurin analogues therefore have attracted great attention in the field of agrochemistry. Previously, we successfully developed a new molecular design method of pharmacophore-linked fragment virtual screening (PFVS) and discovered a lead compound (E)-methyl-2-(2-(((3-(imino-(phenyl)methyl)phenyl)thio)methyl)phenyl)-3-methoxyacrylate (1). To discover new strobilurin analogues with higher fungicidal activity, the structural modification of compound 1 was carried out guided by bioisosterism. A series of benzophenone derivatives 2a-2j were synthesized, among which compound 2j with a K_i value of 1.89 nmol/L was identified as the most promising inhibitor of porcine cytochrome bc1 complex, 157-fold improved binding affinity compared to the commercially available bc_1 inhibitor Azoxystrobin (AZ). In addition, most of the new compounds displayed excellent fungicidal activity against Sphaerotheca fuliginea at the concentration of 200 μmol/L. The present work indicates that strobilurin analogues containing benzophenone side chains may be the ideal leads for future fungicide discovery.

摘要:
阿尔茨海默病(Alzheimer’s disease,AD)是一种病因尚不明确且致病机制极为复杂的神经退行性疾病,严重威胁老年人的健康并对整个社会发展带来沉重的负担。设计开发治疗阿尔茨海默病的药物一直是药物研发领域的热点和难点,其中尤以乙酰胆碱酯酶(acetylcholinesterase,AChE)抑制剂的研究最为活跃并已在临床中成功应用。然而,现有商品化AChE抑制剂的临床治疗效果有限,并且都伴随不同程度的毒副作用。因此,寻找高效、低毒的多重结合位点的AChE抑制剂和针对多重作用靶标的多功能抑制剂(即一药多靶)成为AChE抑制剂分子设计的主要发展方向。本文结合近年来的研究进展,从代表性AChE抑制剂的化学结构和结合模式出发,对AChE抑制剂分子设计的发展历程及最新成果进行了综述。

摘要:
Sclerotiorin 1, first isolated from Penicillium sclerotiorum, has weak antifungal activity and belongs to the azaphilone-type family of natural products. Several series of sclerotiorin analogues were designed and synthesized with the aim of discovering novel fungicides with improved activity. The syntheses involved two key steps, cycloisomerization and then oxidation, and used a simple and efficient Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction to construct the required functionalized precursor. With sclerotiorin as a control, the activities of the newly synthesized analogues were evaluated against seven fungal pathogens, and several promising candidates (compounds 3a<inf>1</inf>, 3d<inf>2</inf>, 3e<inf>2</inf>, 3f<inf>2</inf> and 3k<inf>2</inf>) with greater activity and simpler structures than sclerotiorin were discovered. In addition, preliminary structure-activity relationships were studied, which revealed that not only the chlorine or bromine substituent at the 5-position of the nucleus but also the phenyl group at the 3-position and the substituent pattern on it contributed crucially to the observed antifungal activity. Analogues with a methyl substituent at the 1-position have reduced levels of activity, while those with a free hydroxyl group in place of acetoxy at the quaternary center of the bicyclic ring system retain activity. ©2012 American Chemical Society.

摘要:
Drug resistance has become one of the biggest challenges in drug discovery and/or development and has attracted great research interests worldwide. During the past decade, computational strategies have been developed to predict target mutation-induced drug resistance. Meanwhile, various molecular design strategies, including targeting protein backbone, targeting highly conserved residues and dual/multiple targeting, have been used to design novel inhibitors for combating the drug resistance. In this article we review recent advances in development of computational methods for target mutation-induced drug resistance prediction and strategies for rational design of novel inhibitors that could be effective against the possible drug-resistant mutants of the target. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

摘要:
A new series of pH-responsive Gemini surfactants with 2-pyrrolidone head groups, N,N′-dialkyl-N,N′-di(ethyl-2-pyrrolidone)ethylenediamine (Di-C<inf>n</inf>P, where n = 6, 8 10, 12), were synthesized and characterized by <sup>1</sup>H NMR, <sup>13</sup>C NMR, ESI-MS, and elemental analysis. The surface activity and micellization behavior at acidic, neutral, and basic conditions were characterized by equilibrium surface tension and fluorescence techniques. It was found that the surface activity of Di-C<inf>n</inf>P depends on the pH of aqueous solutions due to the protonation state of surfactant molecules when pH was varied. The new compounds have lower cmc and γ<inf>cmc</inf> in comparison with that of m-2-m type conventional cationic Gemini surfactants and gluconamide-type nonionic Gemini surfactants. Fluorescence data confirm that micelles are formed when the concentration is above the cmc. Since micellization is of fundamental importance in surfactant applications such as solubilization, microemulsion, and related technologies, the significant difference in cmc at different pH of this new Gemini surfactant is employed to solubilize cyclohexane. The preliminary result indeed shows that the solubilization capacity of Di-C<inf>n</inf>P can be tuned by pH. ©2012 American Chemical Society.

摘要:
Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (Protox, EC 1.3.3.4) has attracted great interest during the last decades due to its unique biochemical characteristics and biomedical significance. As a continuation of our research work on the development of new PPO inhibitors, 23 new 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-ones bearing benzothiazole substructure were designed and synthesized. The in vitro assay indicated that the newly synthesized compounds 1a-w displayed good inhibition activity against human PPO (hPPO) with K i values ranging from 0.04 μM to 245 μM. To the knowledge, compound 1a, O-ethyl S-(5-(5-(tert-butyl)- 2-oxo-1,3,4-thiadiazol-3(2H)-yl)-6-fluorobenzothiazol-2-yl)carbonothioate, with the K i value of 40 nM, is so far known as the most potent inhibitor against hPPO. Based on the molecular docking and modified molecular mechanics/Poisson-Boltzmann surface area (MM-PBSA) calculations, the quantitative structure-activity relationships of 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-ones and 1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives were established with excellent correlation relationships (r 2 = 0.81) between the calculated and experimental binding free energies. Some important insights were also concluded for guiding the future rational design of new hPPO inhibitors with improved potency. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Herbicides targeting grass plastidic acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase, EC 6.4.1.2) are selectively effective against graminicides. The intensive worldwide use of this herbicide family has selected for resistance genes in a number of grass weed species. Recently, the active-site W374C mutation was found to confer multi-drug resistance toward haloxyfop (HF), fenoxaprop (FR), Diclofop (DF), and clodinafop (CF) in A. myosuroides. In order to uncover the resistance mechanism due to W374C mutation, the binding of above-mentioned four herbicides to both wild-type and the mutant-type ACCase was investigated in the current work by molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The binding free energies were calculated by molecular mechanics-Poisson-Boltzmann surface area (MM/PBSA) method. The calculated binding free energy values for four herbicides were qualitatively consistent with the experimental order of IC 50 values. All the computational model and energetic results indicated that the W374C mutation has great effects on the conformational change of the binding pocket and the ligand-protein interactions. The most significant conformational change was found to be associated with the aromatic amino acid residues, such as Phe377, Tyr161′ and Trp346. As a result, the π-π interaction between the ligand and the residue of Phe377 and Tyr161′, which make important contributions to the binding affinity, was decreased after mutation and the binding affinity for the inhibitors to the mutant-type ACCase was less than that to the wild-type enzyme, which accounts for the molecular basis of herbicidal resistance. The structural role and mechanistic insights obtained from computational simulations will provide a new starting point for the rational design of novel inhibitors to overcome drug resistance associated with W374C mutation. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.

摘要:
Discovery of protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO, EC 1.3.3.4) inhibitors has been one of the hottest research areas in the field of herbicide development for many years. As a continuation of our research work on the development of new PPO-inhibiting herbicides, a series of novel N-(benzothiazol-5-yl)-4,5,6,7- tetrahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-diones (1a-p) and N-(benzothiazol-5-yl) isoindoline-1,3-diones (2a-h) were designed and synthesized according to the ring-closing strategy of two ortho-substituents. The bioassay results indicated that some newly synthesized compounds exhibited higher PPO inhibition activity than the control of sulfentrazone. Compound 1a, S-(5-(1,3-dioxo-4,5,6,7- tetrahydro-1H-isoindol-2(3H)-yl)-6-fluorobenzothiazol-2-yl) O-methyl carbonothioate, was identified as the most potent inhibitor with k<inf>i</inf> value of 0.08 μM, about 9 times higher than that of sulfentrazone (k <inf>i</inf> = 0.72 μM). Further green house assay showed that compound 1b, methyl 2-((5-(1,3-dioxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-isoindol-2(3H)-yl)-6- fluorobenzothiazol-2-yl)thio)acetate, exhibited herbicidal activity comparable to that of sulfentrazone even at a concentration of 37.5 g ai/ha. In addition, among six tested crops, wheat exhibited high tolerance to compound 1b even at a dosage of 300 g ai/ha. These results indicated that compound 1b might have the potential to be developed as a new herbicide for weed control of wheat field. ©2011 American Chemical Society.

摘要:
Human protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase (hPPO), a mitochondrial inner membrane protein, converts protoporphyrinogen IX to protoporphyrin IX in the heme biosynthetic pathway. Mutations in the hPPO gene cause the inherited human disease varie-gate porphyria (VP). In this study, we report the crystal structure of hPPO in complex with the coenzyme flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and the inhibitor acifluorfen at a resolution of 1.9 Å. The structural and biochemical analyses revealed the molecular details of FAD and acifluorfen binding to hPPO as well as the interactions of the substrate with hPPO. Structural analysis and gel chromatography indicated that hPPO is a monomer rather than a homodimer in vitro. The founder-effect mutation R59W in VP patients is most likely caused by a severe electrostatic hindrance in the hydrophilic binding pocket involving the bulky, hydrophobic indolyl ring of the tryptophan. Forty-seven VP-causing mutations were purified by chromatography and kinetically characterized in vitro. The effect of each mutation was demonstrated in the high-resolution crystal structure. © FASEB.

摘要:
As the last common enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway leading to heme and chlorophyll, protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO; EC 1.3.3.4) is an ideal target for herbicide development. Currently, about 30 PPO inhibitors have been developed as agricultural herbicides. PPO inhibitors have displayed environmentally benign, but advantageous characteristics, including low toxicity, low effective concentration, broad herbicidal spectrum (active against both monocotyledon and dicotyledon weeds), quick onset of action, and long lasting effect. Over the last several years, great achievements have been made in revealing the structural biology of PPO. Five PPO crystal structures, four isolated in enzyme-inhibitor complexes and one in the native form, have been determined, including those from Nicotiana tabacum, Myxococcus Xanthus, Bacillus subtilis, and human. Although PPO inhibitors have been developed for over forty years, we continue to uncover exciting future prospects for novel PPO-inhibiting herbicides. In this review, we have summarized the structures of PPOs from plants, human, and bacteria; the interactions between PPOs and inhibitors; the quantitative structure-activity relationships of PPO inhibitors; and the molecular design of new PPO inhibitors. © Schweizerische Chemische Gesellschaft.
