Published: April 2012

A facile synthesis of imidazo[4,5-b]pyridines and -pyrazines is described using a Pd-catalyzed amide coupling reaction. This reaction provides quick access to products with substitution at N1 and C2. A model system relevant to the natural product pentosidine has been demonstrated, as well as the total synthesis of the mutagen 1-Me-5-PhIP.

: Purinergic P2X3-P2X2/3 receptors are placed in nociceptive neurons' strategic location and show unique desensitization properties; hence, they represent an attractive target for many pain-related diseases. Therefore, a broad interest from academic and pharmaceutical scientists has focused on the search for P2X3 and P2X2/3 receptor ligands and has led to the discovery of numerous new selective antagonists. Some of them have been studied in clinical trials for the treatment of pathological conditions such as bladder disorders, gastrointestinal and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases.

Telmisartan, a bifunctional agent of blood pressure lowering and glycemia reduction, was previously reported to antagonize angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor and partially activate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) simultaneously. Through the modification to telmisartan, researchers designed and obtained imidazo-\pyridine derivatives with the IC50s of 0.49~94.

A series of 2-aryl-imidazo-pyridines/pyrazines derivatives has been designed, synthesized and evaluated for their biological activities. Among them, several investigated compounds (1a, 3b and 3d) displayed potent antiproliferative activity against HeLa cell, and also displayed comparable tubulin polymerization inhibitory activity to colchicine. These studies provided a new molecular scaffold for the further development of antitumor agents that target tubulin.

Small molecules have been shown to be potent and selective probes to understand cell physiology. Here, we show that imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines compose a class of compounds that target essential, conserved cellular processes. Using validated chemogenomic assays in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we discovered that two closely related compounds, an imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine and -pyrimidine that differ by a single atom, have distinctly different mechanisms of action in vivo.

Gastric H+,K+-ATPase can be inhibited by imidazo pyridines like 2-methyl-8-[phenylmethoxy] imidazo-(1,2a) pyridine 3-acetonitrile (SCH 28080). The drug shows a high affinity for inhibition of K+-activated ATPase and for prevention of ATP phosphorylation. The inhibition by SCH 28080 can be explained by assuming that SCH 28080 binds to both the E2 and the phosphorylated intermediate (E2-P) forms of the enzyme.
