This work describes the synthesis and functionalization of azoles employing different methodologies, based on organometallic catalysis or not. Firstly, we disclose the synthesis tetra-substituted 5-trifluoromethyl pyrazoles via sequential halogenation of 5-trifluoromethyl pyrazoles and palladium-catalyzed carbon–carbon and carbon–nitrogen cross-coupling reactions employing organozinc reagents and amines as coupling partners, respectively. This work allowed to achieve new pyrazolic systems in moderated to good yields. Posteriorly, we show the synthesis of 1,3-di(hetero)aryl indazoles exploring the complementary catalytic activity of nickel and copper complexes. We commenced this study evaluating different nickel pre-catalysts to perform the intramolecular amination of unprotected 2-chlorophenyl hydrazones. In a second moment, we described the N-(hetero)arylation of the in situ generated NH indazoles, using a simple catalytic system based on copper/DMEDA. This sequential one-pot fashion procedure allowed the achievement of several 1,3-di(hetero)aryl indazoles in moderate to good yields. Lastly, we disclose the formation of pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-ones by the reaction between ethyl 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylate and primary amines. The one-pot methodology undergoes by two sequential reactional pathways: i) amidation of the ester moiety attached to the pyrazole ring, and ii) intramolecular cyclization via nucleophilic aromatic substitution. This synthetic approach proved to be efficient only for primary aliphatic amines, allowing to achieve molecules with different substitution patterns in moderate to good yields. Key-words: Azoles, quinoxalinones, Negishi cross-coupling, Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling. / Este trabalho descreve a síntese e a funcionalização de azóis através de diferentes metodologias, ancoradas ou não na catálise organometálica. Primeiramente, descrevemos a síntese de 5-trifluormetil pirazóis tetrassubtituídos através de reações de acoplamento cruzado catalisadas por complexos de paládio entre 5-trifluormetil-4-halo pirazóis, reagentes organozinco e aminas. Este trabalho permitiu a obtenção de novos sistemas pirazólicos com rendimentos moderados a bons. Posteriormente realizamos a síntese de 1,3-di(hetero)aril indazóis explorando as atividades catalíticas complementares de complexos de níquel e cobre. Primeiramente avaliamos diferentes pré-catalisadores de níquel para realizar a aminação intramolecular de diferentes 2-clorofenil hidrazonas não protegidas. Em um segundo momento, realizamos a N-(hetero)arilação dos NH indazóis gerados in situ, através do emprego de um sistema catalítico baseado em cobre/DMEDA. A metodologia permitiu a obtenção de diferentes indazóis 1,3-di(hetero)aril substituídos, com rendimentos moderados a bons. Por fim, demonstramos a síntese de pirazolo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-onas a partir da reação entre 1-(2-clorofenil)-1H-pirazolo-5-carboxilatos de etila e aminas primárias. A metodologia one-pot envolve duas etapas sequenciais; i) amidação da função éster do pirazol e ii) ciclização intramolecular via substituição nucleofílica aromática. Esta abordagem sintética provou ser eficiente ao se empregar aminas alquílicas primárias, permitindo a obtenção de diferentes padrões de substituição com rendimentos moderados a bons.

Les lymphomes à grandes cellules anaplasiques ou ALCL (Anaplastic Large-Cell Lymphoma) sont des cancers appartenant à la famille des lymphomes de type non-Hodgkin. La majorité des ALCL est issue d'une translocation t(2;5)(p23;q35) donnant lieu à la formation d'une protéine de fusion appelée NPM-ALK. A ce jour, peu d'inhibiteurs présentent de bonnes activités contre cette protéine chimérique. L'obésité représente un problème socio-médical d'envergure, à la fois pour ses effets directs et indirects ; le surpoids étant un facteur primaire dans de nombreuses maladies, tout particulièrement les diabètes, les accidents cardiovasculaires, le cancer, etc. A contrario, une restriction calorique (RC) est associée à des bénéfices importants en terme de santé. A l'issue de plusieurs criblages, un inhibiteur au motif 2-acylaminothiazole a montré une activité anticancéreuse sur ALK mais également la faculté de mimer la restriction calorique chez C. Elegans. Par conséquent, les travaux de recherche réalisés lors de cette thèse ont concerné la synthèse d'inhibiteurs comportant le squelette 2-acylaminothiazole. Les chromatographies d'affinité effectuées sur deux de nos inhibiteurs ont permis l'identification de cibles principales potentielles dans le cadre de la restriction calorique et des cibles secondaires possibles pour NPM-ALK. Ensuite, la présence d'un atome de brome sur le cycle aromatique a mené à la formation de liaisons C(sp2)-C(sp2), C(sp2)-C(sp) et C(sp2)- N, en utilisant les couplages catalysés par le palladium. Les différentes méthodes de modulation chimique ont conduit à mettre en place une librairie de 134 molécules. Certains d'entres eux et plus précisément ceux possédant un atome de silicium ont démontré une très bonne activité contre ALK et son mutant L1196M. Enfin, des résultats préliminaires ont également été obtenus sur le sujet de la restriction calorique avec quatre composés montrant une réduction du taux de lipides chez C. Elegans / Anaplastic Large-Cell Lymphoma (ALCL) is a type of cancer belonging to the non-Hodgkin family. The majority of ALCL arises from a translocation t(2;5) (p23;35) which leads to the formation of a fusion protein called NPM-ALK. Nowadays, few molecules are known to inhibit the activity of this chimeric protein. Obesity is a major socio-medical problem, for both direct and indirect effects, overweight is a primary factor in many diseases, especially diabetes, cardiovascular events, cancer, etc... In contrast, caloric restriction (CR) is associated with significant benefits in terms of health. After several screenings, one inhibitor based on a 2-acylaminothiazol scaffold showed anticancer activity on the protein ALK but also the ability to mimic caloric restriction in C. Elegans. The aim of this PhD was to develop the synthesis of new inhibitors including the 2-acylaminothiazol scaffold. The affinity chromatography performed on two of our inhibitors was used to identify potential major cellular targets in the process of caloric restriction and secondary cellular targets for NPM-ALK. Then, the presence of a bromo group on the aromatic ring allowed the formation of C(sp2)-C(sp2), C(sp2)- C(sp) and C(sp2)-N bonds, using palladium-catalyzed couplings. The different chemical methodologies afforded the synthesis of a library of 134 molecules. Some of them especially with a silicon atom demonstrated very good inhibitory activity and high selectivity against NPM-ALK and L1196M-NPM-ALK. Finally, preliminary results were also obtained on the subject of calorie restriction with four compounds showing a reduction of lipids in C. Elegans
