Ethynyl and Propynylpyrene Inhibitors of Cytochrome P450

Abstract  

The single-crystal X-ray structures and in vivo activities of three aryl acetylenic inhibitors of cytochromes P450 1A1, 1A2, 2A6, and 2B1 have been determined and are reported herein. These are 1-ethynylpyrene, 1-propynylpyrene, and 4-propynylpyrene. To investigate electronic influences on the mechanism of enzyme inhibition, the experimental electron density distribution of 1-ethynylpyrene has been determined using low-temperature X-ray diffraction measurements, and the resulting net atomic charges compared with various theoretical calculations. A total of 82,390 reflections were measured with Mo Kα radiation to a (sinθ/λ)_max = 0.985 Å⁻¹. Averaging symmetry equivalent reflections yielded 8,889 unique reflections. A least squares refinement procedure was used in which multipole parameters were added to describe the distortions of the atomic electron distributions from spherical symmetry. A map of the model electron density distribution of 1-ethynylpyrene was obtained. Net atomic charges calculated from refined monopole population parameters yielded charges that showed that the terminal acetylenic carbon atom (C18) is more negative than the internal carbon (C17). Net atomic charges calculated by ab initio, density functional theory, and semi-empirical methods are consistent with this trend suggesting that the terminal acetylenic carbon atom is more likely to be the site of oxidation. This is consistent with the inhibition mechanism pathway that results in the formation of a reactive ketene intermediate. This is also consistent with assay results that determined that 1-ethynylpyrene acts as a mechanism-based inhibitor of P450s 1A1 and 1A2 and as a reversible inhibitor of P450 2B1. Crystallographic data: 1-ethynylpyrene, C₁₈H₁₀, P2₁/c, a = 14.571(2) Å, b = 3.9094(5) Å, c = 20.242(3) Å, β = 105.042(2)°, V = 1,113.5(2) Å³; 1-propynylpyrene, C₁₉H₁₂, P2₁/n, a = 8.970(2) Å, b = 10.136(1) Å, c = 14.080(3) Å, β = 99.77(2)°, V = 1,261.5(4) Å³; 4-propynylpyrene, C₁₉H₁₂, Pbca, a = 9.904(1) Å, b = 13.174(2) Å, c = 19.401(1) Å, V = 2,531.4(5) Å³.

Hydrogen Bonded 3D Supramolecular Architectures of Two Organic Salts Assembled from 2-Aminoheterocyclic Compounds and Phosphoric Acid

Abstract  

Two phosphate salts (2-aminopyrimidine): (phosphoric acid): H₂O [HL1⁺ (H₂PO₄) ⁻ ]·H₂O (1), and (4-phenylthiazol-2-amine): (phosphoric acid) [HL2⁺·(H₂PO₄)⁻] (2) based on 2-aminoheterocyclic compounds, 2-aminopyrimidine (L1), and 4-phenylthiazol-2-amine (L2) were prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic, space group P-1, with a = 6.2201(7) Å, b = 8.6139(9) Å, c = 9.4800(10) Å, α = 109.685(2)°, β = 106.3340(10)°, γ = 95.4450(10)°, V = 448.72(8) Å³, Z = 2. For 1, the cations were linked to each other via intermolecular C–H···N hydrogen bonds to form a 1-D chain structure running along the a-axis direction. The anions and the water molecules were connected alternatively along the a-axis direction through O–H···O hydrogen bonds to form a 1-D chain also. The cationic chains and the anionic chains were alternatively connected along the c-axis direction through N–H···O and C–H···O hydrogen bonds to form a 2D corrugated sheet. Adjacent sheets were combined together through π–π interaction to form double sheet. These double sheets were further joined together by O–H···O and N–H···O hydrogen bonds to produce a 3D network structure. Compound 2 crystallizes in the Orthorhombic, space group Pbca, with a = 10.1929(10) Å, b = 8.4406(9) Å, c = 27.589(2) Å, α = 90°, β = 90°, γ = 90°, V = 2373.6(4) Å³, Z = 8. In 2, the phosphates formed 1D chain along the b-axis through two P–O–H···O = P hydrogen bonds. The cations formed 1D zigzag chain along the b-axis direction under the CH–π interaction. The anionic chains were intercalated between two adjacent cationic chains through N–H···O, O–H···O, C–H···O, and O–S contacts. Such stacking repeated along the c-axis direction to form a 3D network structure.

Moreover, weak C–H···O and C–H···π interactions exist in the crystal network.
