项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Catalytic C-H bond functionalization has emerged as a powerful approach in synthetic organic chemistry for the discovery and production of new pharmaceuticals. The next generation C-H bond functionalization methods described in this proposal will enable the rapid assembly of pharmaceutically relevant compounds from simple and readily available inputs. In one program, we will access complex molecular architectures in a single step from simple precursors by the sequential three-component coupling of a C-H bond and two different types of coupling partners. Because many different coupling partners are effective for conventional C-H bond additions to one coupling partner, sequential three-component reactions utilitizing different combinations of coupling partners should provide access to an enormous diversity of motifs relevant to drug and natural product synthesis. Preliminary results obtained with MIRA funding have established the feasibility and utility of this approach. In a second program, we will apply reversible light-mediated C-H bond activation to obtain the most stable from the most accessible heterocycle stereoisomer. Saturated heterocycles such as piperidines, morpholines, piperazines, and lactams are prevalent in drugs and drug candidates but are often most efficiently prepared as the less stable stereoisomer. However, light-mediated processes can enable their highly stereoselective conversion to the more stable stereoisomer as we recently demonstrated for piperidines with MIRA funding. In a third program, we will broadly develop nitrogen heterocycle synthesis by imidoyl C-H functionalization. Imines derived from readily available aldehydes and primary amines are centrally important intermediates in organic synthesis. With MIRA funding, we developed a new approach for the efficient preparation of purine bioisosteres by imidoyl C-H activation of imines followed by in situ annulation with different coupling partners. Purine bioisosteres are found in large numbers of drugs and drug candidates, especially those that interact with biomolecular targets that have purine recognition motifs such as receptors, kinases, and mRNA. We will leverage our methods for the synthesis of purine bioisosteres to target the transcriptome and will apply imidoyl C-H activation and annulation to prepare other important heterocycles. With MIRA funding we advanced new enzyme inhibitor discovery approaches and potent and selective inhibitors to challenging enzyme targets. In proposed research, we will directly apply C-H functionalization to biological inquiry. For example, our methods for the synthesis and elaboration of dihydropyridines enable the rapid preparation of amine-containing structures with three-dimensional display of functionality and stereoselective introduction of multiple stereogenic centers, features increasingly sought after in medicinal chemistry endeavors. These approaches will be applied to the discovery of potent and selective ligands to challenging biomolecular targets relevant to the treatment of unmet medical conditions, including the identification of CNS penetrant, highly selective ligands to aminergic GPCRs.
