Synthesis and bioevaluation of laccase substrates and substituted quinolinesPrasain, Keshar January 1900 (has links)
Doctor of Philosophy / Department of Chemistry / Duy H. Hua / Our research work is divided into three chapters. In the first chapter, synthesis of substituted phenolic compounds including halogenated di- and trihydroxybenzenes, aminophenols, and substituted di-tert-butylphenols, their redox potential, laccase oxidation, and mosquito anti-larval activities are discussed. The synthesized substituted phenols were found to be the substrates but not the inhibitors of laccase. An inverse correlation between the oxidation potential and the laccase oxidation efficiency of halogenated hydroxybenzenes and aminophenols was established. However, substituted di-tert-butylphenols were found to have anti-larval activities in mosquitoes resulting in the death of the larvae just before reaching pupation. Among the di-tert-butyl phenols studied, water insoluble, 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)phenol (16), 2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-methylpropanal oxime (14), and 6,8-di-tert-butyl-2,2-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromene (17) caused the mortility of 98%, 93%, and 92% of Anopheles gambiae larvae in the concentration of 182 nM, 3.4 µM, and 3.7 µM, respectively. In particular, compound 16 had similar anti-larval activities as compared to MON-0585, an anti-larval agent reported by Monsanto in the 70’s.
In the second chapter, inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) phosphorylation by substituted quinolines (PQs) is inverstigated. PQ compounds such as N-(3-aminopropyl)-6-methoxy-4-methyl-5-(3-(trifluormethyl)phenoxy)quinolin-8-amine (PQ1), N-(furan-2-ylmethyl)-6-methoxy-4-methyl)-5-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)quinolin-8-amine (PQ11), and 6-methoxy-4-methyl-N-(quinolin-4-ylmethyl)-5-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)quinolin-8-amine (PQ15) were found to inhibit PKC phosphorylation with IC50 values of 35 nM, 42.3 nM, and 216.3 nM respectively, among which PQ1 and PQ11 were found to be potent PKC inhibitors as comparable to that of staurosporine (IC50 = 33 nM).
In chapter three, the tissue distribution of PQ1 and PQ11 in normal C57BL/6J mice and the effect of PQ1 on the normal tissues of mice were investigated. Substituted quinolines, PQ1 and PQ11 were distributed in the tissues in concentrations that were more than 40 folds of their effective dose. PQ1 and PQ11 were also found to penetrate the blood brain barrier and collect in the tissue in significant amounts. The administration of PQ1 and PQ11 had no effect in the normal behavior of the animals indicating no short term adverse effects. PQ1 was found to increase the expression of survivin, an anti-apoptotic factor and decrease the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and caspase-8, pro-apoptotic proteins. These studies suggests that PQ1 might have anti-apoptotic activities in normal cells, in contrast to the role of PQ1 in cancer cells where it has demonstrated to induce apoptosis. The study also indicated that PQ11 was better metabolized from the tissues over time as compared to PQ1.

Development of catalytic enantioselective C-C bond-forming and cascade transformations by merging homogeneous or heterogeneous transition metal catalysis with asymmetric aminocatalysisAfewerki, Samson January 2014 (has links)
Chiral molecules play a central role in our daily life and in nature, for instance the different enantiomers or diastereomers of a chiral molecule may show completely different biological activity. For this reason, it is a vital goal for synthetic chemists to design selective and efficient methodologies that allow the synthesis of the desired enantiomer. In this context, it is highly important that the concept of green chemistry is considered while designing new approaches that eventually will provide more environmental and sustainable chemical synthesis.The aim of this thesis is to develop the concept of combining transition metal catalysis and aminocatalysis in one process (dual catalysis). This strategy would give access to powerful tools to promote reactions that were not successful with either transition metal catalyst or the organocatalyst alone. The protocols presented in this thesis based on organocatalytic transformations via enamine or iminium intermediates or both, in combination with transition metal catalysis, describes new enantioselective organocatalytic procedures that afford valuable compounds with high chemo- and enantioselectivity from inexpensive commercial available starting materials. In paper I, we present a successful example of dual catalysis: the combination of transition metal activation of an electrophile and aminocatalyst activation of a nucleophile via enamine intermediate. In paper II, the opposite scenario is presented, here the transition metal activates the nucleophile and the aminocatalyst activates the electrophile via an iminium intermediate. In paper III,we present a domino Michael/carbocyclisation reaction that is catalysed by a chiral amine (via iminium/enamine activation) in combination with a transition metal catalysts activation of an electrophile. In paper IV, the concept of dual catalysis was further extended and applied for the highly enantioselective synthesis of valuable structural scaffolds, namely poly-substituted spirocyclic oxindoles. Finally, in paper V the concept of dual catalysis was expanded, by investigating more challenging and environmentally benign processes, such as the successful combination of a heterogeneous palladium and amine catalysts for the highly enantioselective synthesis of functionalised cyclopentenes, containing an all carbonquaternary stereocenter, dihydrofurans and dihydropyrrolidines.

Syntéza polysubstituovaných pyrimidinů s potenciálními protizánětlivými vlastnostmi / Synthesis of polysubstituted pyrimidines with potential anti-inflammatory propertiesKalčic, Filip January 2017 (has links)
This thesis is engaged in the synthesis of polysubstituted pyrimidines with anti- inflammatory properties. Such molecules can inhibit production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The aim of this study was to enhance water-solubility and anti-inflammatory efficacy of such derivatives via structural modifications of the lead scaffold. Among applied synthetic tools, the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling was the prevalent reaction, however, many other synthetic procedures (Heck reaction, condensation, borylation, ozonolysis, nucleophilic substitution, etc.) were utilized as well. Overall, 43 final products were prepared. The anti-inflammatory efficacy (inhibition of PGE2 production) was successfully increased as the most potent compound achieved three orders of magnitude higher activity compared to the current lead structure WQE-134. Furthermore, no general influence of the length of the substituent in the C5 position of pyrimidine (C5pyr) on the anti-inflammatory efficacy of synthesized compounds was observed. Significant bioavailability obstacle in future development of the current lead WQE-134 is its poor solubility which was successfully enhanced by introduction of heteroatom bearing moieties to C5pyr. The most water-soluble compound achieved two orders of magnitude higher solubility than WQE-134 while...

Synthèse stéréosélective de bispidines : vers la conception de nouvelles molécules antalgiques / Stereoselective synthesis of bispidines : towards the design of new analgesic moleculesPlas, Aurélie 18 November 2011 (has links)
Les bispidines sont des diamines polycycliques chirales régulièrement utilisées comme ligand pour réaliser de l’induction asymétrique. La bispidine HZ2 est connue pour être agoniste et sélective des récepteurs κ-opioïdes, récepteurs impliqués dans le mécanisme douloureux. Ce travail décrit la mise au point d’une méthode générale de synthèse asymétrique et flexible du squelette bispidine, permettant des modifications structurales, afin d’évaluer le potentiel pharmacologique des analogues synthétisés. Tout d’abord, nous avons synthétisé des pipéridines 2,3,6-trisubstituées grâce à une réaction de Mannich intramoléculaire stéréospécifique entre un β,β’-diaminocétal et divers aldéhydes. Les pipéridones possédant une fonction amino-éthyle en position 3, ainsi obtenues ont été engagées dans une deuxième réaction de Mannich, pour l’obtention de bispidines bicycliques. Ensuite, nous avons souhaité accéder à des bispidines de géométrie plus contrainte. Pour cela, la condensation de divers anhydrides sur les pipéridones possédant une fonction amino-éthyle en position 3, a permis la formation des imides correspondants, précurseurs d’ions N-acyliminium. Les bispidines tricycliques et tétracycliques, sont obtenues par cyclisation en milieu acide en présence des éthers d’énols. Une étude de détermination structurale par RMN a permis de mettre en évidence les différentes conformations adoptées par les bispidines synthétisées (chaise-chaise, chaise-bateau, chaise-twist). Enfin, les composés synthétisés ont fait l’objet de tests in vivo afin d’évaluer leur potentiel antalgique. Ils ont montré une activité modérée. Cependant, l’introduction de groupements aromatiques en α de l’atome d’azote devrait accroître l’efficacité de nos composés, selon les modèles décrits dans la littérature. / Bispidines are polycyclic chirales diamines which are usefull ligands for asymmetric induction. Bispidine HZ2 is known to be an agonist and selective of κ-receptors, receptors invoved in pain mechanism. This work focuses on the development of a versatile asymmetric synthesis of bispidine backbone, allowing structural modifications, in order to evaluate the pharmacologic potential of compounds prepared. Initially, we synthetized 2,3,6-trisubstituted piperidines thanks to an intramolecular stereospecific Mannich reaction between a β,β’-diaminoketal and various aldehydes. Piperidones, thus obtained, which have an amino-ethyl function in position 3, were submitted to a second Mannich reaction, in order to prepare bicyclic bispidines. Then, we wish to obtain bispidines of restricted conformation. The condensation of several aldehydes on piperidones which have an amino-ethyl function in position 3, enabled the formation of the corresponding imides, precursors of N-acyliminium ions. Tricyclic and tetracyclic bispidines were obtained by a cyclisation in acid conditions in presence of enol ethers. A NMR study enabled to give rise to the adopted conformations of the bispidines prepared (chair-chair, chair-boat, chair-twist). Finally, the synthetized compounds were tested in vivo in order to evaluate their analgesic potential. They showed a moderate activity. However, the introduction of aromatic groups in position α of the nitrogen atom would increase the efficiency of our compounds, according to the literature.

Synthèse totale de la pactamycine et d’une sélection d’analogues, progrès vers la synthèse totale de la daphniglaucine C et brève étude d’une transposition allylique réductriceDorich, Stéphane 03 1900 (has links)
Il y a plus de cinquante ans, la pactamycine a été isolée en tant qu’agent antitumoral potentiel. Il a été réalisé plus tard qu’il s’agissait en fait d’un agent antibactérien capable d’inhiber la synthèse de protéines lors du procédé de traduction. Récemment, il a même été démontré que certains de ses analogues possèdent des propriétés antiprotozoaires prometteuses. La présente thèse détaille la première synthèse totale de la pactamycine, entreprise au sein du groupe Hanessian, ainsi que la préparation d’une sélection d’analogues testés pour leurs propriétés biologiques.
En outre, la daphniglaucine C appartient à une vaste famille de composés naturels isolés des feuilles du daphniphyllum au cours des dix dernières années. Bien que relativement peu d’information soit connue par rapport à l’activité biologique de la daphniglaucine C, la synthèse de celle-ci représente certainement un défi intéressant pour un chimiste organicien. Au passage, nos efforts vers la synthèse totale du composé cible auront permis d’explorer l’emploi de plusieurs méthodes en vue de la formation de centres quaternaires. De plus, un réarrangement réductif atypique, catalysé au palladium à partir d’alcools allyliques non-activés, a été étudié et employé afin de générer une sélection de pyrrolidines polysubstituées. / Although pactamycin was first isolated as a potential antitumoral drug, further studies highlighted its capacities in inhibiting protein synthesis, and thus its potency as an antibacterial agent. Furthermore, it was recently discovered that some of its analogs display promising antiprotozoal activity. The present thesis reports and details the first total synthesis of pactamycin, pursued in the Hanessian lab over the last few years, as well as the preparation of a selection of analogs thereby tested for their biological properties.
Daphniglaucin C belongs to a large family of natural compounds isolated from the leaves of daphniphyllum over the last decade. Although relatively little is known as to the biological activity of daphniglaucin C, its synthesis poses an obvious and interesting challenge for organic chemists. En route towards its total synthesis, the use of several methods for the formation of quaternary centers was explored. Moreover, an atypical reductive allylic transposition, catalyzed by palladium from unactivated allylic alcohols, was studied and used to generate a variety of polysubstituted pyrrolidines.

Synthèse de tétrazoles oxabicycliques, leurs transformations en une vaste diversité de composés hétérocycliques fonctionnalisés et étude en DFT de l’équilibre tétrazole-azidoazométhine avec des motifs de types benzo- et pyrido- diazidodiazinesDeschênes-Simard, Benoît 12 1900 (has links)
Les tétrazoles ont une place importante dans la chimie médicinale contemporaine par leurs caractéristiques spatiales et électroniques uniques. Leur haute teneur en azote leur confère également des qualités requises dans le développement de substances explosives et de haute énergie. Le développement de nouveaux outils synthétiques pour les créer prend donc ici tout son sens.
Dans cet ouvrage, il est tout d’abord question d’une nouvelle méthode de synthèse qui génère des tétrazoles bicycliques en conditions douces par l’entremise d’azidonitriles aliphatiques séparés par trois ou quatre atomes de carbone (effet de proximité) et d’acides de Lewis. De plus, cette méthode de synthèse présente une réaction tandem qui génère des tétrazoles oxabicycliques 1,5-dialkylés via une cycloaddition 1,3-dipolaire diastéréosélective à partir d’azidoacétals ou d’azidocétals arborant un azoture proximal. La réaction s’effectue dans le nitrométhane de 0 °C à la température ambiante avec du TMSCN et est promue par une variété d’acides de Lewis dont le BF3OEt2. Les aspects mécanistiques de la réaction (l’ouverture des acétals, l’équilibre entre les éthers de cyanhydrine, la cycloaddition 1,3-dipolaire diastéréosélective et le réarrangement de Boyer-Schmidt-Aubé) ainsi que les paramètres réactionnels (solvants, acides de Lewis, stœchiométrie, sources de cyanure, etc.) seront en outre abordés.
Ensuite, le motif de tétrazole oxabicyclique a été l’objet de diversifications, de fonctionnalisations et de transformations afin d’en valoriser l’utilité. Des réactions d’alkylations, d’azoturations radicalaires, de bêta-éliminations et de diversifications de la chaîne latérale ont été étudiées. De ces mêmes motifs de tétrazoles, la synthèse de tétrazoles azabicycliques et celle de morpholines 2,6-polysubstituées ont aussi été investiguées. La synthèse d’un sel de tétrazolium et l’alkylation de 5-tétrazolyllithiums ont aussi fait l’objet d’études préliminaires.
Enfin, une étude théorique en DFT a été effectuée pour mieux comprendre l’équilibre tétrazole-azidoazométhine sur des motifs de types benzo- et pyrido- diazidodiazines parents à la 6-azidotétrazolo[5,1-a]phthalazine, un métabolite toxique du Gymnodinium breve (Ptychodiscus brevis, aussi actuellement connu sous le nom de Karenia brevis). Les aspects thermodynamiques, les états de transition, les orbitales HOMO, les cartes de potentiels d’ionisation locaux, les cartes de densité de la LUMO, les effets de solvant et certains paramètres permettant d’évaluer l’aromaticité (indices de Bird, ordres de liaison minimaux de Jug, indices HOMA et NICS) ont été considérés dans l’étude. Le constat a été que certaines des analyses théoriques peuvent constituer de bons outils prédictifs, particulièrement avec des considérations thermodynamiques, mais que cette approche a aussi ses limites qui sont principalement dues aux incertitudes inhérentes aux calculs théoriques. / Tetrazoles have an important place in contemporary medicinal chemistry due to their unique spatial and electronic characteristics. Their high nitrogen content also gives them the qualities required for the development of explosive and high energy substances. The development of new synthetic tools to create them takes here all its meaning.
Therefore, in this work, a new synthesis method that generates bicyclic tetrazoles under mild conditions using aliphatic azidonitriles separated by three or four carbon atoms (proximity effect) and Lewis acids will first be discussed. In addition, a tandem reaction which generates 1,5-dialkylated oxabicyclic tetrazoles via a diastereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition from azidoacetals or azidoketals bearing a proximal azide will also be disclosed. The reaction is carried out in nitromethane at 0 °C to room temperature with TMSCN and is promoted by a variety of Lewis acids including BF3OEt2. The mechanistic aspects of the reaction (acetal opening, equilibrium between cyanohydrin ethers, diastereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition and Boyer-Schmidt-Aubé rearrangement) as well as the reaction parameters (solvents, Lewis acids, stoichiometry, cyanide sources, etc.) will be discussed.
Furthermore, the oxabicyclic tetrazole unit was involved in diversifications, functionalizations and transformations to enhance its utility. Reactions of alkylations, radical azidations, beta-eliminations and diversifications of the side chain were applied. From these same tetrazole units, the synthesis of azabicyclic tetrazoles and that of 2,6-polysubstituted morpholines was also investigated. The synthesis of a tetrazolium salt and the alkylation of 5 tetrazolyllithiums were also the subject of preliminary studies.
Finally, a theoretical DFT study was carried out to have a better understanding of the tetrazole-azidoazomethine equilibrium on benzo- and pyrido- diazidodiazines similar to 6 azidotetrazolo [5,1-a] phthalazine, a toxic metabolite from Gymnodinium breve (Ptychodiscus brevis, actually known as Karenia brevis). Thermodynamic aspects, transition states, HOMO orbitals, local ionization potential maps, LUMO density maps, solvent effects, and some parameters to evaluate the aromaticity (Bird index, Jug minimum bond order, HOMA index and NICS) were considered in the study. It has been noted that some of the theoretical analysis can be good predictive tools, particularly with thermodynamic considerations, but they also have their limits, which are mainly due to the uncertainties inherent in the theoretical calculations.
