Benzopyran compounds possess diverse pharmacological properties such as β-blockade, anticonvulsant and antimicrobial.[1,2] Our interest has been focused on the synthesis of 1-[6-Fluoro-2S]-3H,4H-dihydro-2H-2-chromenyl]-(1R)-1,2-ethanediol (6) and 1-[6-fluoro-(2R)-3H,4H-dihydro-2H-2-chromenyl]-(1R)-1,2-ethanediol (7) which are particularly convenient precursor to (S,R,R,R)-NE (8). 8 containing four asymmetrical carbon atoms was reported to be the most active isomer.[3] Chandrasekhar[4] has reported on the synthesis of 8. The key step to synthesize this compound is to obtain the chiral chromanone 6 and 7. 6 was accomplished in 8 steps by the Clasien rearrangement and a one-pot Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation, but the compound 7 was accomplished in 10 steps. Johannes[5] used Zr-catalytic kinetic resolution of allylic ethers and Mo-catalyzed chromene formation to synthesize 8 in 14 steps. However both of the methods request many synthetic steps and expensive reagents.

Electrochemical behavior of [UO_2Cl_4]~(2-) in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium based ionic liquids

In order to examine the chemical form of uranyl species in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium(EMI) based ionic liquids,UV-visible absorption spectra of solutions prepared by dissolving [EMI] 2 [UO2Cl4] into a mixture of EMICl and EMIBF 4(50:50 mol%) were measured.As a result,it was confirmed that uranyl species in the mixture of EMICl and EMIBF 4 existed as [UO2Cl4]2-.Cyclic voltammograms(CVs) of [UO2Cl4]2-in the mixture were measured at 25 ℃ using a Pt working electrode,a Pt wire counter electrode,and an Ag/Ag + reference electrode(0.01 M AgNO 3,0.1 M tetrabutylammonium perchlorate in acetonitrile) in a glove box under an Ar atmosphere.Peaks corresponding to one redox couple were observed around-1.05 V(Epc) and-0.92 V(Epa) vs.ferrocene/ferrocenium ion(Fc/Fc +).The potential differences between two peaks(Ep) increased from 101 to 152 mV with an increase in the scan rate from 50 to 300 mV s-1,while the(Epc+Epa)/2 value was constant,-0.989 V vs.Fc/Fc + regardless of the scan rate.Furthermore,the diffusion coefficient of [UO2Cl4]2-and the standard rate constant were estimated to be 3.7 × 10-8 cm 2 s-1 and(2.7-2.8) × 10-4 cm s-1 at 25 oC.By using the diffusion coefficient and the standard rate constant,the simulation of CVs was performed based on the reaction,[UO2Cl4]2-+ e = [UO2Cl4]3-.The simulated CVs were found to be consistent with the experimental ones.From these results,it is concluded that [UO2Cl4]2-in the mixture of EMICl and EMIBF 4 is reduced to [UO2Cl4]3-quasi-reversibly at-0.989 V vs.Fc/Fc +.     

3D-QSAR Studies on 4-([1,2,4]Triazolo[1,5-α]pyridin-6-yl)-5(3)-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)imidazole Analogues as Potent Inhibitors of Transforming Growth Factor-β Type Ⅰ Receptor Kinase

The transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β) plays a crucial role in the beginning and progression of fibrosis in various organ systems such as lung, heart, liver and kidney. TGF-β type I receptor kinase(activin receptor-like kinase 5, ALK5) inhibitors might have potential activity for the treatment of relevant diseases. In this paper, the three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship(3 D-QSAR) including comparative molecular field analysis(Co MFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis(Co MSIA) were used to analyze the structural requirements based on a dataset of 123 4-([1,2,4]Triazolo[1,5-α]pyridine-6-yl)-5(3)-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)imidazole analogues which acted as ALK5 inhibitors. The obtained Co MFA model(q~2 = 0.652, r~2 = 0.876, r~2 pred = 0.845) and Co MSIA model(q~2 = 0.648, r~2 = 0.884, r~2 pred = 0.853) were robust and satisfactory. The predictive ability of the derived models was validated using a test set of 28 compounds. Additionally, potentially important structural features required to enhance activity were also elucidated by the contour maps derived from Co MFA and Co MSIA models. The results will be helpful to guide drug design strategies aimed at obtaining potent and selective ALK5 inhibitors.
