Stability and Efficiency of Mixed Aryl Phosphonate Prodrugs.

ABSTRACT: A set of phosphonate prodrugs of a butyrophilin ligand was synthesized and evaluated for plasma stability and cellular activity. The mixed aryl acyloxy esters were prepared either via a standard sequence through the phosphonic acid chloride, or through the more recently reported, and more facile, triflate activation. In the best of cases, this class of prodrugs shows cellular potency similar to that of bis-acyloxyalkyl phosphonate prodrugs and plasma stability similar to that of aryl phosphonamidates. For example, {[((3E)-5-hydroxy-4-methylpent-3-en-1-yl) (naphthalen-2-yloxy)phosphoryl]oxy}methyl 2,2-dimethylpropanoate can activate BTN3A1 in K562 cells after just 15?minutes of exposure (at an EC50 value of 31?nm) and is only partially metabolized (60?% remaining) after 20?hours in human plasma. Other related novel analogues showed similar potency/stability profiles. Therefore, mixed aryl acyloxyalkyl phosphonate prodrugs are an exciting new strategy for the delivery of phosphonate-containing drugs.

Mixed Aryl Phosphonate Prodrugs of a Butyrophilin Ligand.

Project description:Studies of aryl phosphonate derivatives of a butyrophilin 3A1 ligand have resulted in identification of a potent stimulant of V?9 V?2 T cells. This compound, a mixed ester bearing one pivaloyloxymethyl substituent and one 1-naphthyl ester displayed an EC50 of 0.79 nM as a stimulant of T cell proliferation, and a 9.0 nM EC50 in an assay designed to measure interferon gamma production. In both assays, this is the most potent butyrophilin ligand prodrug yet reported, and thus it should be a valuable tool for studies of T cell function. Furthermore, mixed aryl/acyloxyalkyl esters may represent a new class of phosphonate prodrugs with high efficacy.

Structure of cyclic nucleoside phosphonate ester prodrugs: an inquiry.

Project description:The configuration at phosphorus in cyclic (S)-HPMPC (1, cidofovir) and (S)-HPMPA (2) phenyl ester (5 and 6, respectively) diastereomers ((R(p))-5, (R(p))-6, (S(p))-6) was determined by X-ray crystallography and correlated to their (1)H and (31)P NMR spectra in solution. (R(p))-5 and (R(p))-6 have chair conformations with the nucleobase substituent equatorial and the P-OPh axial. Perhaps surprisingly, (S(p))-6 is (a, a) in the crystal and exists largely as an equilibrium of (a, a)/(e, e) conformers in chloroform or acetonitrile.

Expedient synthesis and biological evaluation of alkenyl acyclic nucleoside phosphonate prodrugs.

Project description:The importance of phosphonoamidate prodrugs (ProTides) of acyclic nucleoside phosphonate (ANPs) is highlighted by the approval of Tenofovir Alafenamide Fumarate for the treatment of HIV and HBV infections. In the present paper we are reporting an expedient, one-pot, two-steps synthesis of allyl phosphonoamidates and diamidates that offers a time saving strategy when compared to literature methods. The use of these substrates in the cross metathesis reactions with alkenyl functionalised thymine and uracil nucleobases is reported. ANPs prodrugs synthesized via this methodology were evaluated for their antiviral activities against DNA and RNA viruses. It is anticipated that the use of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-napthyl as aryloxy moiety is capable to confer antiviral activity among a series of otherwise inactive uracil ProTides.

Enamide Prodrugs of Acetyl Phosphonate Deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate Synthase Inhibitors as Potent Antibacterial Agents.

Project description:To fight the growing threat of antibiotic resistance, new antibiotics are required that target essential bacterial processes other than protein, DNA/RNA, and cell wall synthesis, which constitute the majority of currently used antibiotics. 1-Deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate (DXP) synthase is a vital enzyme in bacterial central metabolism, feeding into the de novo synthesis of thiamine diphosphate, pyridoxal phosphate, and essential isoprenoid precursors isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate. While potent and selective inhibitors of DXP synthase in vitro activity have been discovered, their antibacterial activity is modest. To improve the antibacterial activity of selective alkyl acetylphosphonate (alkylAP) inhibitors of DXP synthase, we synthesized peptidic enamide prodrugs of alkylAPs inspired by the natural product dehydrophos, a prodrug of methyl acetylphosphonate. This prodrug strategy achieves dramatic increases in activity against Gram-negative pathogens for two alkylAPs, butyl acetylphosphonate and homopropargyl acetylphosphonate, decreasing minimum inhibitory concentrations against Escherichia coli by 33- and nearly 2000-fold, respectively. Antimicrobial studies and LC-MS/MS analysis of alkylAP-treated E. coli establish that the increased potency of prodrugs is due to increased accumulation of alkylAP inhibitors of DXP synthase via transport of the prodrug through the OppA peptide permease and subsequent amide hydrolysis. This work demonstrates the promise of targeting DXP synthase for the development of novel antibacterial agents.

Synthesis of 5'-methylene-phosphonate furanonucleoside prodrugs: application to D-2'-deoxy-2'-?-fluoro-2'-?-C-methyl nucleosides.

Project description:A new and facile synthetic pathway to metabolically stable 5'-methylene-bis(pivaloyloxymethyl)(POM)phosphonate furanonucleoside prodrugs is reported. The key step involves a Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction of a tetra(pivaloyloxymethyl) bisphosphonate salt with appropriately protected 5'-aldehydic nucleosides. This efficient approach was applied for the synthesis HCV related 2'-deoxy-2'-?-fluoro-2'-?-C-methyl nucleosides.

Synthesis and Antiviral Evaluation of (1,4-Disubstituted-1,2,3-Triazol)-(E)-2-Methyl-but-2-Enyl Nucleoside Phosphonate Prodrugs.

Project description:A series of hitherto unknown (1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazol)-(E)-2-methyl-but-2-enyl nucleosides phosphonate prodrugs bearing 4-substituted-1,2,3-triazoles were prepared in a straight approach through an olefin acyclic cross metathesis as the key synthetic step. All novel compounds were evaluated for their antiviral activities against HBV, HIV and SARS-CoV-2. Among these molecules, only compound 15j, a hexadecyloxypropyl (HDP)/(isopropyloxycarbonyl-oxymethyl)-ester (POC) prodrug, showed activity against HBV in Huh7 cell cultures with 62% inhibition at 10 μM, without significant cytotoxicity (IC50 = 66.4 μM in HepG2 cells, IC50 = 43.1 μM in HepG2 cells) at 10 μM.

Improving the Stability of EGFR Inhibitor Cobalt(III) Prodrugs.

Project description:Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized cancer therapy in the past two decades, severe drawbacks such as strong adverse effects and drug resistance limit their clinical application. Prodrugs represent a valuable approach to overcoming these disadvantages by administration of an inactive drug with tumor-specific activation. We have recently shown that hypoxic prodrug activation is a promising strategy for a cobalt(III) complex bearing a TKI of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The aim of this study was the optimization of the physicochemical properties and enhancement of the stability of this compound class. Therefore, we synthesized a series of novel derivatives to investigate the influence of the electron-donating properties of methyl substituents at the metal-chelating moiety of the EGFR inhibitor and/or the ancillary acetylacetonate (acac) ligand. To understand the effect of the different methylations on the redox properties, the newly synthesized complexes were analyzed by cyclic voltammetry and their behavior was studied in the presence of natural low-molecular weight reducing agents. Furthermore, it was proven that reduction to cobalt(II) resulted in a lower stability of the complexes and subsequent release of the coordinated TKI ligand. Moreover, the stability of the cobalt(III) prodrugs was investigated in blood serum as well as in cell culture by diverse cell and molecular biological methods. These analyses revealed that the complexes bearing the methylated acac ligand are characterized by distinctly enhanced stability. Finally, the cytotoxic activity of all new compounds was tested in cell culture under normoxic and various hypoxic conditions, and their prodrug nature could be correlated convincingly with the stability data. In summary, the performed chemical modifications resulted in new cobalt(III) prodrugs with strongly improved stabilities together with retained hypoxia-activatable properties.

Mixed Alkyl/Aryl Phosphonates Identify Metabolic Serine Hydrolases as Antimalarial Targets

Project description:Malaria, caused by Plasmodium falciparum, remains a significant health burden. The barrier for developing anti-malarial drugs is the ability of the parasite to rapidly generate resistance. We previously demonstrated that Salinipostin A (SalA), a natural product, potently kills parasites by inhibiting multiple lipid metabolizing serine hydrolases, a mechanism with a low propensity for resistance. Given the difficulty of employing natural products as therapeutic agents, we synthesized a small library of lipidic mixed alkyl/aryl phosphonates as bioisosteres of SalA. Two constitutional isomers exhibited divergent anti-parasitic potencies which enabled the identification of therapeutically relevant targets. We also confirm that this compound kills parasites through a mechanism that is distinct from both SalA and the pan-lipase inhibitor, Orlistat. In addition, like SalA, our compound induces only weak resistance, attributable to mutations in a single protein involved in multidrug resistance. These data suggest that mixed alkyl/aryl phosphonates are a promising, synthetically tractable anti-malarials with a low-propensity to induce resistance.

Photooxidation of mixed aryl and biarylphosphines.

Project description:Arylphosphines and dialkylbiarylphosphines react with singlet oxygen to form phosphine oxides and phosphinate esters. For mixed arylphosphines, the most electron-rich aryl group migrates to form the phosphinate, while for dialkylbiarylphosphines migration of the alkyl group occurs. Dialkylbiarylphosphines also yield arene epoxides, especially in electron-rich systems. Phosphinate ester formation is increased at high temperature, while protic solvents increase the yield of epoxide. The product distribution provides evidence for Buchwald's recent conformational model for the aerobic oxidation of dialkylbiarylphosphines.

Structural modifications modulate stability of glutathione-activated arylated diazeniumdiolate prodrugs.

Project description:JS-K, a diazeniumdiolate-based nitric oxide (NO)-releasing prodrug, is currently in late pre-clinical development as an anti-cancer drug candidate. This prodrug was designed to be activated by glutathione (GSH) to release NO. To increase the potency of JS-K, we are investigating the effect of slowing the reaction of the prodrugs with GSH. Herein, we report the effect of replacement of nitro group(s) by other electron-withdrawing group(s) in JS-K and its homo-piperazine analogues on GSH activation and the drugs' biological activity. We show that nitro-to-cyano substitution increases the half-life of the prodrug in the presence of GSH without compromising the compound's in vivo antitumor activity.
