Published: January 2007

Substitution of phenyl oxazolidinones with carbon-linked azoles resulted in the discovery of a new class of potent oxazolidinones that have excellent Gram-positive activity. In addition, replacement of the C-5 acetamide side chains with a 4-methyl triazole diminished monoamine oxidase activity. The synthesis and biological evaluation of these compounds are reported.

A one-pot, efficient oxidative-condensation process for constructing both 4-alkyl and 4-aryl-5-(arylthio) thiazol-2-amines using DMSO/I is introduced. In this procedure, methyl ketones, thiourea, DMSO, and thiols are reacted together in the presence of molecular I at 80 °C simply to produce 4-alkyl or aryl-5-(arylthio)thiazol-2-amines due to formation of a C-S bond between thiourea and methyl carbon linked to carbonyl group and the another C-S bond formation between thiol and thiazol ring. Under reaction conditions, both aryl and alkyl methyl ketones including acetophenone and substituted acetophenones also, 2-alkanones such as acetone, 2-butanone, 2-pentanone, and 2-heptanone yield those products successfully.

Department of Chemistry, The University of Texas at Austin, 105 East 24th Street Stop A 5300, Austin, Texas 78712-1224, United States.

"Functional molecular systems", discrete and self-assembled constructs where control over molecular recognition, structure, bonding, transport, release, catalytic activity, etc., is readily achieved, are a topic of current interest. Within this broad paradigm, oligopyrrolic cages have garnered attention due to their responsive recognition features.

Cyclin G-associated kinase (GAK) is a cellular regulator of the clathrin-associated host adaptor proteins AP-1 and AP-2, which regulates intracellular trafficking of dengue virus during early and late stages of the viral lifecycle. Previously, the discovery of isothiazolo[4,3-b]pyridines as potent and selective GAK inhibitors with promising antiviral activity was reported. In this manuscript, the synthesis of isothiazolo[4,3-b]pyridines with a carbon-linked substituent at position 3 is described by the application of regioselective Suzuki and Sonogashira coupling reactions.

Deregulation of the receptor tyrosine kinase c-Met has been implicated in several human cancers and is an attractive target for small molecule drug discovery. Herein, we report the discovery of a structurally diverse series of carbon-linked quinoline triazolopyridinones, which demonstrates nanomolar inhibition of c-Met kinase activity. This novel series of inhibitors exhibits favorable pharmacokinetics as well as potent inhibition of HGF-mediated c-Met phosphorylation in a mouse liver pharmacodynamic model.

To better understand the molecular basis for recognition of the DNA minor groove by heterocyclic cations, a series of "reversed amidine" substituted heterocycles has been prepared. Amidine derivatives for targeting the minor groove have the amidine carbon linked to a central heterocyclic system, whereas in the reverse orientation, an amidine nitrogen provides the link. The reverse system has a larger dihedral angle as well as a modified spatial relationship with the groove relative to amidines.
