An intramolecular hydrogen bond-promoted "green" Ugi cascade reaction for the synthesis of 2,5-diketopiperazines with anticancer activity.

ABSTRACT: We report a "green chemistry"-based Ugi cascade reaction to furnish a series of 2,5-diketopiperazines (through nucleophilic attack of amides upon ketones in Ugi adducts) at moderate-to-good yields. Investigation with the MTT assay revealed compound (±) 5c to exhibit potent anticancer activities against acute myeloid leukaemia (MV411; IC₅₀ = 1.7 μM) and acute T lymphocyte leukaemia (Jurkat; IC₅₀ = 5.7 μM) cell lines.

One-pot Ugi/Aza-Michael synthesis of highly substituted 2,5-diketopiperazines with anti-proliferative properties.

Project description:The well-known Ugi reaction of aldehydes with amines, carboxylic acids and isocyanides leads to the formation of acyclic α-acylaminocarboxamides. Replacement of the carboxylic acid derivatives with β-acyl substituted acrylic acids gives access to highly substituted 2,5-diketopiperazines in one single reaction-step without additives or complex reaction procedures. The obtained diketopiperazines show anti-proliferative effects on activated T cells and represent therefore potential candidates for targeting unwanted T cell-mediated immune responses.

Design, Synthesis, and Anticancer Activity of Novel 3,6-Diunsaturated 2,5-Diketopiperazines.

Project description:Based on the marine natural products piperafizine B, XR334, and our previously reported compound 4m, fourteen novel 3,6-diunsaturated 2,5-diketopiperazine (2,5-DKP) derivatives (1, 2, 4-6, 8-16), together with two known ones (3 and 7), were designed and synthesized as anticancer agents against the A549 and Hela cell lines. The MTT assay results showed that the derivatives 6, 8-12, and 14 had moderate to good anticancer capacities, with IC50 values ranging from 0.7 to 8.9 μM. Among them, compound 11, with naphthalen-1-ylmethylene and 2-methoxybenzylidene functions at the 3 and 6 positions of 2,5-DKP ring, respectively, displayed good inhibitory activities toward both A549 (IC50 = 1.2 μM) and Hela (IC50 = 0.7 μM) cancer cells. It could also induce apoptosis and obviously block cell cycle progression in the G2/M phases in both cells at 1.0 μM. The electron-withdrawing functions might not be favorable for the derivatives with high anticancer activities. Additionally, compared to piperafizine B and XR334, these semi-N-alkylated derivatives have high liposolubilities (>1.0 mg mL-1). Compound 11 can be further developed, aiming at the discovery of a novel anticancer candidate.

Intramolecular Hydrogen Bond Expectations in Medicinal Chemistry.

Project description:Design strategies centered on intramolecular hydrogen bonds are sometime used in drug discovery, but their general applicability has not been addressed beyond scattered examples or circumstantial evidence. A total of 1053 matched molecular pairs where only one of the two molecules is able to form an intramolecular hydrogen bond via monatomic transformations have been identified across the ChEMBL database. These pairs were used to investigate the effect of intramolecular hydrogen bonds on biological activity. While cases of extreme, conflicting variation of effect emerge, the mean biological activity difference for a pair is close to zero and does not exceed ±0.5 log biological activity for over 50% of the analyzed sample.

Intramolecular hydrogen bond in biologically active o-carbonyl hydroquinones.

Project description:Intramolecular hydrogen bonds (IHBs) play a central role in the molecular structure, chemical reactivity and interactions of biologically active molecules. Here, we study the IHBs of seven related o-carbonyl hydroquinones and one structurally-related aromatic lactone, some of which have shown anticancer and antioxidant activity. Experimental NMR data were correlated with theoretical calculations at the DFT and ab initio levels. Natural bond orbital (NBO) and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) calculations were used to study the electronic characteristics of these IHB. As expected, our results show that NBO calculations are better than MEP to describe the strength of the IHBs. NBO energies (∆Eij(2)) show that the main contributions to energy stabilization correspond to LP-->σ* interactions for IHBs, O1…O2-H2 and the delocalization LP-->π* for O2-C2=Cα(β). For the O1…O2-H2 interaction, the values of ∆Eij(2) can be attributed to the difference in the overlap ability between orbitals i and j (Fij), instead of the energy difference between them. The large energy for the LP O2-->π* C2=Cα(β) interaction in the compounds 9-Hydroxy-5-oxo-4,8, 8-trimethyl-l,9(8H)-anthracenecarbolactone (VIII) and 9,10-dihydroxy-4,4-dimethylanthracen-1(4H)-one (VII) (55.49 and 60.70 kcal/mol, respectively) when compared with the remaining molecules (all less than 50 kcal/mol), suggests that the IHBs in VIII and VII are strongly resonance assisted.

Intramolecular charge-assisted hydrogen bond strength in pseudochair carboxyphosphate.

Project description:Carboxyphosphate, a suspected intermediate in ATP-dependent carboxylases, has not been isolated nor observed directly by experiment. Consequently, little is known concerning its structure, stability, and ionization state. Recently, carboxyphosphate as either a monoanion or dianion has been shown computationally to adopt a novel pseudochair conformation featuring an intramolecular charge-assisted hydrogen bond (CAHB). In this work, additive and subtractive correction schemes to the commonly employed open-closed method are used to estimate the strength of the CAHB. Truhlar's Minnesota M06-2X functional with Dunning's aug-cc-pVTZ basis set has been used for geometry optimization, energy evaluation, and frequency analysis. The CHARMM force field has been used to approximate the Pauli repulsive terms in the closed and open forms of carboxyphosphate. From our additive correction scheme, differential Pauli repulsion contributions between the pseudochair (closed) and open conformations of carboxyphosphate are found to be significant in determining the CAHB strength. The additive correction modifies the CAHB prediction (ΔEclosed-open) of -14 kcal/mol for the monoanion and -12 kcal/mol for the dianion to -22.9 and -18.4 kcal/mol, respectively. Results from the subtractive technique reinforce those from our additive procedure, where the predicted CAHB strength ranges from -17.8 to -25.4 kcal/mol for the monoanion and from -15.7 to -20.9 kcal/mol for the dianion. Ultimately, we find that the CAHB in carboxyphosphate meets the criteria for short-strong hydrogen bonds. However, carboxyphosphate has a unique energy profile that does not result in the symmetric double-well behavior of low-barrier hydrogen bonds. These findings provide deeper insight into the pseudochair conformation of carboxyphosphate, and lead to an improved mechanistic understanding of this intermediate in ATP-dependent carboxylases.

Weak, Broken, but Working-Intramolecular Hydrogen Bond in 2,2'-bipyridine.

Project description:From an academic and practical point of view, it is desirable to be able to assess the possibility of the proton exchange of a given molecular system just by knowing the positions of the proton acceptor and the proton donor. This study addresses the difference between intramolecular hydrogen bonds in 2,2'-bipyridinium and 1,10-phenanthrolinium. Solid-state 15N NMR and model calculations show that these hydrogen bonds are weak; their energies are 25 kJ/mol and 15 kJ/mol, respectively. Neither these hydrogen bonds nor N-H stretches can be responsible for the fast reversible proton transfer observed for 2,2'-bipyridinium in a polar solvent down to 115 K. This process must have been caused by an external force, which was a fluctuating electric field present in the solution. However, these hydrogen bonds are the grain that tips the scales precisely because they are an integral part of a large system of interactions, including both intramolecular interactions and environmental influence.

Intramolecular Hydrogen Bond Improved Durability and Kinetics for Zinc-Organic Batteries.

Project description:Organic compounds have the advantages of green sustainability and high designability, but their high solubility leads to poor durability of zinc-organic batteries. Herein, a high-performance quinone-based polymer (H-PNADBQ) material is designed by introducing an intramolecular hydrogen bonding (HB) strategy. The intramolecular HB (C=O⋯N-H) is formed in the reaction of 1,4-benzoquinone and 1,5-naphthalene diamine, which efficiently reduces the H-PNADBQ solubility and enhances its charge transfer in theory. In situ ultraviolet-visible analysis further reveals the insolubility of H-PNADBQ during the electrochemical cycles, enabling high durability at different current densities. Specifically, the H-PNADBQ electrode with high loading (10 mg cm-2) performs a long cycling life at 125 mA g-1 (> 290 cycles). The H-PNADBQ also shows high rate capability (137.1 mAh g-1 at 25 A g-1) due to significantly improved kinetics inducted by intramolecular HB. This work provides an efficient approach toward insoluble organic electrode materials.

Functionalized Spiroindolines with Anticancer Activity through a Metal-Free Post-Ugi Diastereoselective One-Pot Cascade Reaction.

Project description:A post-Ugi diastereoselective one-pot cascade reaction requiring no metal catalyst was developed. The reaction scope was wide with mild conditions and good yields. A collection of spiroindolines was prepared by the protocol and screening tests in several difficult-to-inhibit cancer cell lines were conducted. The relationship of structure and anticancer activities was promising and in the Huh7 cell lines compound 16 j is more potent than Vinbalstine. The cyclization design strategy could be applicable to other multicomponent reactions (MCRs) for synthesizing bioactive and drug-like heterocycles.
