5-Nitroisoxazoles in SNAr Reactions: A Novel Chemo- and Regioselective Approach to Isoxazole-Based Bivalent Ligands of AMPA Receptors.
International journal of molecular sciences(2023)
摘要
An efficient regioselective approach to novel functionalized bis(isoxazoles) with a variety of aromatic and aliphatic linkers was elaborated, based on the heterocyclization reaction of electrophilic alkenes under the treatment with tetranitromethane-triethylamine complex affording 3-EWG-5-nitroisoxazoles. The subsequent SNAr reactions of 5-nitroisoxazoles with various O,O-, N,N- and S,S-bis(nucleophiles) provide a wide range of bis(isoxazole) derivatives in good isolated yields. Employing an elaborated method, a series of novel bis(3-EWG-isoxazoles) as the promising allosteric modulators of AMPA receptors were designed and synthesized. The effect of the compounds on the kainate-induced currents was studied in the patch clamp experiments, revealing modulator properties for several of them. The best positive modulator potency was found for dimethyl 5,5′-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(sulfanediyl))bis(isoxazole-3-carboxylate), which potentiated the kainate-induced currents in a wide concentration range (10−12–10−6 M) with maximum potentiation of 77% at 10−10 M. The results were rationalized using molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations of modulator complexes with the dimeric ligand-binding domain of the GluA2 AMPA receptor. The predicted physicochemical, ADMET, and PAINS properties confirmed that the AMPA receptor modulators based on the bis(isoxazole) scaffold may serve as potential lead compounds for the development of neuroprotective drugs.
