RESUMEN
The discussion herein describes a metallaphotoredox reaction that allows for efficient exploration of benzyl structure-activity relationships in medicinal chemistry. The use of HTE (high-throughput experimentation) and ChemBeads allows for rapid reaction optimization. The formation of di(hetero)arylmethanes via cross-electrophile coupling between aryl bromides and benzyl bromides provides access to diverse chemical space. The breadth of the substrate scope will be discussed, along with the utilization of batch photochemistry for the preparation of this di(hetero)arylmethane motif on a larger scale.
RESUMEN
Human genetic evidence shows that PDE3B is associated with metabolic and dyslipidemia phenotypes. A number of PDE3 family selective inhibitors have been approved by the FDA for various indications; however, given the undesirable proarrhythmic effects in the heart, selectivity for PDE3B inhibition over closely related family members (such as PDE3A; 48% identity) is a critical consideration for development of PDE3B therapeutics. Selectivity for PDE3B over PDE3A may be achieved in a variety of ways, including properties intrinsic to the compound or tissue-selective targeting. The high (>95%) active site homology between PDE3A and B represents a massive obstacle for obtaining selectivity at the active site; however, utilization of libraries with high molecular diversity in high throughput screens may uncover selective chemical matter. Herein, we employed a DNA-encoded library screen to identify PDE3B-selective inhibitors and identified potent and selective boronic acid compounds bound at the active site.

Optimization of isoquinolinone PI3K inhibitors led to the discovery of a potent inhibitor of PI3K-γ (26 or IPI-549) with >100-fold selectivity over other lipid and protein kinases. IPI-549 demonstrates favorable pharmacokinetic properties and robust inhibition of PI3K-γ mediated neutrophil migration in vivo and is currently in Phase 1 clinical evaluation in subjects with advanced solid tumors.
