RESUMO
We report herein a general catalytic method for Csp(2)-Csp(3) bond formation through C-F activation. The process uses an inexpensive nickel complex with either diorganozinc or alkylzinc halide reagents, including those with ß-hydrogen atoms. A variety of fluorine substitution patterns and functional groups can be readily incorporated. Sequential reactions involving different precatalysts and coupling partners permit the synthesis of densely functionalized fluorinated building blocks.

UDP-3-O-(R-3-hydroxymyristoyl)-N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase (LpxC) is a Zn2+ deacetylase that is essential for the survival of most pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria. ACHN-975 (N-((S)-3-amino-1-(hydroxyamino)-3-methyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl)-4-(((1R,2R)-2-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopropyl)buta-1,3-diyn-1-yl)benzamide) was the first LpxC inhibitor to reach human clinical testing and was discovered to have a dose-limiting cardiovascular toxicity of transient hypotension without compensatory tachycardia. Herein we report the effort beyond ACHN-975 to discover LpxC inhibitors optimized for enzyme potency, antibacterial activity, pharmacokinetics, and cardiovascular safety. Based on its overall profile, compound 26 (LPXC-516, (S)-N-(2-(hydroxyamino)-1-(3-methoxy-1,1-dioxidothietan-3-yl)-2-oxoethyl)-4-(6-hydroxyhexa-1,3-diyn-1-yl)benzamide) was chosen for further development. A phosphate prodrug of 26 was developed that provided a solubility of >30â mg mL-1 for parenteral administration and conversion into the active drug with a t1/2 of approximately two minutes. Unexpectedly, and despite our optimization efforts, the prodrug of 26 still possesses a therapeutic window insufficient to support further clinical development.

A Ni-catalyzed, chemoselective cross-coupling reaction of polyfluoroarenes under mild reaction conditions is reported. A variety of fluorine-containing biaryls are synthesized in good-to-excellent yields. A wide range of substitution patterns and functional groups are tolerated.
