Łowicki D, Przybylski P. Cascade synthetic strategies opening access to medicinal-relevant aliphatic 3- and 4-membered N-heterocyclic scaffolds. Eur J Med Chem 2022; 238:114438. [PMID: 35567964 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2022.114438] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2021] [Revised: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 04/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Cascade reactions are often 'employed' by nature to construct structurally diverse nitrogen-containing heterocycles in a highly stereoselective fashion, i.e., secondary metabolites important for pharmacy. Nitrogen-containing heterocycles of three- and four-membered rings, as standalone and bicyclic compounds, inhibit different enzymes and are pharmacophores of approved drugs or drug candidates considered in many therapies, e.g. anticancer, antibacterial or antiviral. Domino transformations are in most cases in line with modern green chemistry concepts due to atom economy, one-pot procedures often without use the protective groups, time-saving and at markedly lower costs than multistep transformations. The tandem approaches can help to obtain novel N-heterocyclic scaffolds, functionalized according to structural requirements of the target in cells, taking into account the nature of functional group and stereochemistry. On the other hand cascade strategies allow to modify small N-heterocyclic rings in a systematic way, which is beneficial for structure-activity relationship (SAR) analyses. This review is focused on the biological relevance of the N-heterocyclic scaffolds with smaller 3- and 4-membered rings among approved drugs and leading structures of drug candidates. The cascade synthetic strategies offering N-heterocyclic scaffolds, at relatively good yields and high stereoselectivity, are discussed here. The review covers mainly years from 2015 to 2021.

Discovery of new anticancer thiourea-azetidine hybrids: design, synthesis, in vitro antiproliferative, SAR, in silico molecular docking against VEGFR-2, ADMET, toxicity, and DFT studies. Bioorg Chem 2021; 115:105206. [PMID: 34339975 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2021.105206] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
With the aim to discover potent and novel antitumor agents, a series of thiourea compounds bearing 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)azetidine moiety were designed according to the essential pharmacophoric features of the reported VEGFR-2 inhibitors and synthesized. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity against various human cancer cell lines (lung (A549), prostate (PC3), breast (MCF-7), liver (HepG2), colon (HCT-116), ovarian (SKOV-3), skin (A431), brain (U251) and kidney (786-O)). 3-(4-Methoxy-3-(2-methoxypyridin-4-yl)phenyl)-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)azetidine-1-carbothioamide (3B) was found to be most potent member against PC3, U251, A431, and 786-O cancer cell lines with EC50 values 0.25, 0.6, 0.03, and 0.03 µM, respectively and showed more potency than Doxorubicin in PC3, A431, and 786-O cell lines. Compounds 1B to 7B showed EC50 values ranging from 0.03 to 12.55 µM in A431 cell line. Compound 3-(4-methoxy-3-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl)-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)azetidine-1-carbothioamide (1B) was found to be highly efficient in A431 and 786-O cell line with EC50 values of 0.77 and 0.73 µM respectively. All the compounds exhibited good to moderate cytotoxic activity. The pharmacophoric features and molecular docking studies confirmed the potentialities of compounds 1B, 2B, 3B and 5B to be VEGFR-2 inhibitors. Moreover, in silico ADMET prediction indicated that most of the synthesized compounds have drug-like properties, possess low adverse effects and toxicity. In addition, the DFT studies for the most active compounds (1B and 3B) were carried out. In the end, our studies revealed that the compounds 1B and 3B represent promising anticancer potentialities through their VEGFR-2 inhibition.
