Published: March 2004

2-Arylbenzoxazoles, benzothiazoles and benzimidazoles were identified as new classes of potent, isoform specific inhibitors of lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase-beta (LPAAT-beta). Effects of selected inhibitors on proliferation of tumor cells in vitro were investigated.

Unlike the closely related and widely investigated amidino-substituted benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles with a range of demonstrated biological activities, the matching benzoxazole analogues still remain a largely understudied and not systematically evaluated class of compounds. To address this challenge, we utilized the Pinner reaction to convert isomeric cyano-substituted 2-aminophenols into their amidine derivatives, which were isolated as hydrochlorides and/or zwitterions, and whose structure was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The key step during the Pinner synthesis of the crucial carboximidate intermediates was characterized through mechanistic DFT calculations, with the obtained kinetic and thermodynamic parameters indicating full agreement with the experimental observations.
