Improved total synthesis of the potent HDAC inhibitor FK228 (FR-901228).

ABSTRACT: A scaleable synthesis of the potent histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor FK228 is described. A reliable strategy for preparing the key beta-hydroxy mercapto heptenoic acid partner was accomplished in nine steps and 13% overall yield. A Noyori asymmetric hydrogen-transfer reaction established the hydroxyl stereochemistry in >99:1 er via the reduction of a propargylic ketone.

Enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-largazole, a potent inhibitor of histone deacetylase.

Project description:An enantioselective total synthesis of the cytotoxic natural product (+)-largazole (1) is described. It is a potent histone deacetylase inhibitor. Our synthesis is convergent and involves the assembly of thiazole 3-derived carboxylic acid with amino ester 4 followed by cycloamidation of the corresponding amino acid. The synthesis features an efficient cross-metathesis, an enzymatic kinetic resolution of a beta-hydroxy ester, a selective removal of a Boc-protecting group, a HATU/HOAt-promoted cycloamidation reaction, and synthetic manipulations to a sensitive thioester functional group.

The HDAC inhibitor FK228 enhances adenoviral transgene expression by a transduction-independent mechanism but does not increase adenovirus replication.

Project description:The histone deacetylase inhibitor FK228 has previously been shown to enhance adenoviral transgene expression when cells are pre-incubated with the drug. Upregulation of the coxsackie adenovirus receptor (CAR), leading to increased viral transduction, has been proposed as the main mechanism. In the present study, we found that the highest increase in transgene expression was achieved when non-toxic concentrations of FK228 were added immediately after transduction, demonstrating that the main effect by which FK228 enhances transgene expression is transduction-independent. FK228 had positive effects both on Ad5 and Ad5/f35 vectors with a variety of transgenes and promoters, indicating that FK228 works mainly by increasing transgene expression at the transcriptional level. In some cases, the effects were dramatic, as demonstrated by an increase in CD40L expression by FK228 from 0.3% to 62% when the murine prostate cancer cell line TRAMP-C2 was transduced with Ad[CD40L]. One unexpected finding was that FK228 decreased the transgene expression of an adenoviral vector with the prostate cell-specific PPT promoter in the human prostate adenocarcinoma cell lines LNCaP and PC-346C. This is probably a consequence of alteration of the adenocarcinoma cell lines towards a neuroendocrine differentiation after FK228 treatment. The observations in this study indicate that FK228 enhances adenoviral therapy by a transduction-independent mechanism. Furthermore, since histone deacetylase inhibitors may affect the differentiation of cells, it is important to keep in mind that the activity and specificity of tissue- and tumor-specific promoters may also be affected.

Improved Synthesis of MDL 73811 - a Potent AdoMetDC Inhibitor and Anti-Trypanosomal Compound.

Project description:An improved synthesis of MDL 73811 - a potent AdoMetDC (S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylease) inhibitor and anti-trypanosomal compound with in vivo activity has been completed in four steps from commercially available 2',3'-O-isopropylideneadenosine. Utilization of Mitsunobu chemistry was crucial for the reliable and scalable introduction of the 5'-methylamine moiety, which was problematic using traditional activation/displacement chemistry as previously reported. All reactions in this synthesis were run on gram-scale resulting in a five-fold increase in yield over the original synthesis.

Total synthesis of (+/-)-agelastatin A, a potent inhibitor of osteopontin-mediated neoplastic transformations.

Project description:A stereoselective synthesis of agelastatin A, a potent cytotoxin and inhibitor of osteopontin (OPN)-mediated neoplastic transformations, has been accomplished in 14 steps (12 operations) with an approximate overall yield of 8%. Notable features of this route include the direct manner in which the pyrroloketopiperazine A-ring of the target is generated and the efficient employment of a trichloroacetamide, introduced through Overman rearrangement, as a protecting group, pendant nucleophile, and latent urea.

Synthesis of HDAC Inhibitor Libraries via Microscale Workflow.

Project description:An integrated workflow has been established that enables the synthesis, purification, and subsequent biological testing of compound libraries on a microgram scale. This approach utilizes mass directed preparative HPLC in conjunction with charged aerosol detection (CAD) to generate solutions of investigational compounds at high purity and standardized concentrations, facilitating high fidelity biological testing. This new workflow successfully delivered libraries of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors that afforded biological data consistent with that obtained from standard scale parallel medicinal chemistry techniques. The advantages of this new approach to library synthesis include greatly reduced material requirements and amenability to high-throughput experimentation.

An improved high yield total synthesis and cytotoxicity study of the marine alkaloid neoamphimedine: an ATP-competitive inhibitor of topoisomerase IIα and potent anticancer agent.

Project description:Recently, we characterized neoamphimedine (neo) as an ATP-competitive inhibitor of the ATPase domain of human Topoisomerase IIα. Thus far, neo is the only pyridoacridine with this mechanism of action. One limiting factor in the development of neo as a therapeutic agent has been access to sufficient amounts of material for biological testing. Although there are two reported syntheses of neo, both require 12 steps with low overall yields (≤6%). In this article, we report an improved total synthesis of neo achieved in 10 steps with a 25% overall yield. In addition, we report an expanded cytotoxicity study using a panel of human cancer cell lines, including: breast, colorectal, lung, and leukemia. Neo displays potent cytotoxicity (nM IC50 values) in all, with significant potency against colorectal cancer (lowest IC50 = 6 nM). We show that neo is cytotoxic not cytostatic, and that neo exerts cytotoxicity by inducing G2-M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

An improved total synthesis of tunicamycin V.

Project description:The tunicamycins are important biochemical tools to study N-linked glycosylation and protein misfolding in cancer biochemistry fields. We reported a convergent synthesis of tunicamycin V with 21% overall yield from D-galactal. We have further optimized our original synthetic scheme by increasing the selectivity of azidonitration of the galactal derivative and developing a one-pot Büchner-Curtius-Schlotterbeck reaction. An improved synthetic scheme reported here enables the synthesis of tunicamycin V in 33% overall yield. In this article, we describe detailed procedures for a gram-scale synthesis of the key intermediate 12 and synthesizing 100 mg of tunicamycin V (1) from commercially available D-galctal-4,5-acetonide. All chemical steps have been repeated multiple times.•Highly selective azidonitration of N-(((3aR,4R,7aR)-2,2-dimethyl-3a,7a-dihydro-4H-[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-c]pyran-4-yl)methyl)acetamide (D-galctal-4,5-acetonide) to form 2-azido-2-deoxy-α/β-D-galactopyranoside derivatives.•Optimized Büchner-Curtius-Schlotterbeck (BCS) reaction procedure for the tunicamycin core structure.•Full detail on the 15-chemical step synthesis of tunicamycin V.

Design and Synthesis of LM146, a Potent Inhibitor of PB1 with an Improved Selectivity Profile over SMARCA2.

Project description:PB1 is a bromodomain-containing protein hypothesized to act as the nucleosome-recognition subunit of the PBAF complex. Although PB1 is a key component of the PBAF chromatin remodeling complex, its exact role has not been elucidated due to the lack of potent and selective inhibitors. Chemical probes that target specific bromodomains within the complex would constitute highly valuable tools to characterize the function and therapeutic pertinence of PB1 and of each of its bromodomains. Here, we report the design and synthesis of lead compound LM146, which displays strong stabilization of the second and fifth bromodomains of PB1 as shown by DSF. LM146 does not interact with bromodomains outside of sub-family VIII and binds to PB1(2), PB1(5), and SMARCA2B with K D values of 110, 61, and 2100 nM, respectively, providing a ∼34-fold selectivity profile for PB1(5) over SMARCA2.
