RESUMEN
A potent and selective series of 2-amino-3,5-diarylbenzamide inhibitors of IKK-alpha and IKK-beta is described. The most potent compounds are 8h, 8r and 8v, with IKK-beta inhibitory potencies of pIC(50) 7.0, 6.8 and 6.8, respectively. The series has excellent selectivity, both within the IKK family over IKK-epsilon, and across a wide variety of kinase assays. The potency of 8h in the IKK-beta enzyme assay translates to significant cellular activity (pIC(50) 5.7-6.1) in assays of functional and mechanistic relevance.

The use of the pentafluorophenyl (PFP) group as a sulfonic acid protecting group has allowed the synthesis of new biaryl- and heterobiaryl-PFP-sulfonate esters by use of the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. The successful employment of a novel inorganic base, anhydrous sodium tetraborate, was crucial to give the products in excellent yields. The PFP-sulfonate ester has been previously shown to be an excellent alternative to sulfonyl chlorides in the synthesis of sulfonamides. [structure: see text]
