Abstract
Macrophage elastase [matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-12] is the most upregulated MMP in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and, hence, MMP-12-targeted imaging may predict AAA progression and rupture risk. Here, we report the design, synthesis, and evaluation of three novel hydroxamate-based selective MMP-12 inhibitors (CGA, CGA-1, and AGA) and the methodology to obtain MMP-12 selectivity from hydroxamate-based panMMP inhibitors. Also, we report two 99mTc-radiotracers, 99mTc-AGA-1 and 99mTc-AGA-2, derived from AGA. 99mTc-AGA-2 displayed faster blood clearance in mice and better radiochemical stability compared to 99mTc-AGA-1. Based on this, 99mTc-AGA-2 was chosen as the lead tracer and tested in murine AAA. 99mTc-AGA-2 uptake detected by autoradiography was significantly higher in AAA compared to normal aortic regions. Specific binding of the tracer to MMP-12 was demonstrated through ex vivo competition. Accordingly, this study introduces a novel family of selective MMP-12 inhibitors and tracers, paving the way for further development of these agents as therapeutic and imaging agents.

Abstract
Diverse structural types of natural products and their mimics have served as targets of opportunity in our laboratory to inspire the discovery and development of new methods and strategies to assemble polyfunctional and polycyclic molecular architectures. Furthermore, our efforts toward identifying novel compounds having useful biological properties led to the creation of new targets, many of which posed synthetic challenges that required the invention of new methodology. In this Perspective, selected examples of how we have exploited a diverse range of natural products and their mimics to create, explore, and solve a variety of problems in chemistry and biology will be discussed. The journey was not without its twists and turns, but the unexpected often led to new revelations and insights. Indeed, in our recent excursion into applications of synthetic organic chemistry to neuroscience, avoiding the more-traveled paths was richly rewarding.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a multifactorial disease cluster that consists of dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and obesity. MetS patients are strongly exposed to polypharmacy; however, the number of pharmacological compounds required for MetS treatment can be reduced by the application of multitarget compounds. This study describes the design of dual-target ligands that target soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor type γ (PPARγ). Simultaneous modulation of sEH and PPARγ can improve diabetic conditions and hypertension at once. N-Benzylbenzamide derivatives were determined to fit a merged sEH/PPARγ pharmacophore, and structure-activity relationship studies were performed on both targets, resulting in a submicromolar (sEH IC50 = 0.3 μM/PPARγ EC50 = 0.3 μM) modulator 14c. In vitro and in vivo evaluations revealed good ADME properties qualifying 14c as a pharmacological tool compound for long-term animal models of MetS.

Abstract
Recent studies of diastereoselective conjugate additions of monoorganocuprates, Li[RCuI], to chiral γ-alkoxycrotonates and fumarates are disclosed. This methodology was applied to the shortest total synthesis of (-)-dihydroprotolichesterinic acid to date, but several attempts to prepare other succinate-derived natural products, such as pilocarpine and antrodin E, were unsuccessful.

Abstract
Several lines of experimental evidence support the involvement of the α7 nAChR in schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease. Modulators of the α7 nAChR have been extensively reviewed for the treatment of the cognitive deficits associated with these pathologies. SEN12333 represents a novel α7 nAChR agonist chemotype with potential for reduced side effects but requiring further SAR exploration. The present work investigates the amide bond of SEN12333, specifically its connectivity and replacement with the tetrazole functionality, a known cis amide isostere. The results reveal the original amide bond connectivity of SEN12333 to be favorable for binding affinity and agonist activity at α7 nAChRs. The use of a tetrazole isostere completely abolishes affinity and functional activity and suggests that SEN12333 binds in a linear conformation. Results reported herein also suggest the pyridine nitrogen within the terminal aromatic ring of SEN12333 is not essential for binding affinity or functional activity. Further SAR investigations involving manipulation of other moieties contained within SEN12333 are warranted.

Abstract
Through a de novo design approach, hydroxamates derived from trans-cyclopropyl dicarboxylate were examined as potential TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) inhibitors. Two distinctive series of inhibitors (A and B) were identified and shown to have different structure-activity relationship trends and selectivity profiles against other matrix metalloproteases despite their close structural similarities. X-ray crystallography of the inhibitors binding to the TACE enzyme demonstrates that each series derives its activity from the opposite enantiomer of the cyclopropyl scaffolds, which display almost superimposable hydroxamate groups that coordinate to the zinc at the catalytic site. Mode A inhibitors occupy the S1'-S3' binding pockets, whereas mode B resides in the nonprime binding sites.

Abstract
One of the primary objectives in the design of protein inhibitors is to shape the three-dimensional structures of small molecules to be complementary to the binding site of a target protein. In the course of our efforts to discover potent inhibitors of Bcl-2 family proteins, we found a unique folded conformation adopted by tethered aromatic groups in the ligand that significantly enhanced binding affinity to Bcl-XL. This finding led us to design compounds that were biased by nonbonding interactions present in a urea tether to adopt this bioactive, folded motif. To characterize the key interactions that induce the desired conformational bias, a series of substituted N,N'-diarylureas were prepared and analyzed using X-ray crystallography and quantum mechanical calculations. Stabilizing pi-stacking interactions and destabilizing steric interactions were predicted to work in concert in two of the substitution patterns to promote the bioactive conformation as a global energy minimum and result in a high target binding affinity. Conversely, intramolecular hydrogen bonding present in the third substitution motif promotes a less active, extended conformer as the energetically favored geometry. These findings were corroborated when the inhibition constant of binding to Bcl-XL was determined for fully elaborated analogues bearing these structural motifs. Finally, we obtained the NMR solution structure of the disubstituted N,N'-diarylurea bound to Bcl-XL demonstrating the folded conformation of the urea motif engaged in extensive pi-interactions with the protein.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are important regulators of signal transduction pathways. Potent and selective PTP inhibitors are useful for probing these pathways and also may serve as drugs for the treatment of a variety of diseases including type 2 diabetes and infection by the bacterium Yersinia pestis. In this report Cu(I)-catalyzed 'click' cycloaddition reactions between azides and alkynes were employed to generate two sequential libraries of PTP inhibitors. In the first round library methyl 4-azidobenzoylformate was reacted with 56 mono- and diynes. After hydrolysis of the methyl esters, the resulting alpha-ketocarboxylic acids were assayed in crude form against the Yersinia PTP and PTP1B. Four compounds were selected for further evaluation, and one compound was chosen as the lead for generation of the second round library. This lead compound was modified by conversion of an alcohol into an azide group, and the resulting azide was reacted with the same 56 mono- and diynes that were used in the first generation library. After screening the crude inhibitors against the Yersinia PTP and PTP1B, four compounds were selected and evaluated in pure form against the Yersinia PTP, PTP1B, TCPTP, LAR, and CD45. The best bis(alpha-ketocarboxylic acid) inhibitor 34 had an IC(50) value of 550nM against the Yersinia PTP and an IC(50) value of 710nM against TCPTP. The most potent inhibitor containing a single alpha-ketocarboxylic acid group 32 had IC(50) values of 2.1, 5.7, and 2.6 microM against the Yersinia PTP, PTP1B, and TCPTP, respectively.

Abstract
Small peptides exhibit a wide range of biological activities, but although there are some notable exceptions, they are not generally useful as drugs. This has spurred widespread interest in designing peptidomimetics and introducing them as replacements of portions of native peptides to enhance their biological properties. Special attention has been focused upon rigid replacements because of their potential to preorganize the resulting pseudopeptide in a conformation corresponding to its bound structure. Toward this goal, we invented trisubstituted cyclopropanes as novel peptidomimetics, anticipating that the cyclopropane ring would locally orient the backbone and the corresponding amino acid side chain in the biologically active conformation. Selected aspects of the syntheses and applications of these cyclopropane-derived peptidomimetics are presented in this Account.

Abstract
We have previously found that esters of 11beta-estradiol carboxylates are transformed from an estrogen into an antiestrogen when the 11beta-side chain is increased in length from four to five non-hydrogen atoms (n > or = 5). To understand the structural requirements for this transformation and obtain metabolically stable analogues that are not susceptible to esterase cleavage, we have synthesized other compounds having an 11beta-side chain composed of other functional groups: ketones, amides, ethers, and thiono esters. With the exception of amides, which bind poorly to the estrogen receptor (ER), all of these compounds exhibit antiestrogenic action when the side chain length is n > or = 5. Ethers (n > or = 5), studied in more detail, inhibit the action of estradiol with either ERalpha or ERbeta. In rat uteri they are estrogen antagonists/weak agonists and decrease the concentration of cholesterol in blood (an hepatic estrogenic action). Thus, these short chain and nonpolar 11beta-analogues of estradiol have tissue specific antiestrogenic/estrogenic actions, characteristics of selective estrogen receptor modulators.

Abstract
Diaryl piperazine acetamides were identified as potent and selective dopamine D(4) receptor agonists. Our strategy is based on an amide bond reversal of an acid sensitive, dopamine D(4) receptor partial agonist, PD 168077. This reversal provided compounds with excellent potency and improved stability. Systematic evaluation of the substitution on the aryl piperazine portion revealed a significant effect on functional activity. The synthesis and biological activity of these new dopamine D(4) agonists is discussed.

Abstract
We have synthesized derivatives of estradiol that are structurally modified to serve as "soft" estrogens and act within a geographically limited area of the body; estrogens without systemic action. We have previously shown with 16alpha-substituted analogues of estradiol that carboxylates proximal to the steroid ring neither bind to the estrogen receptor nor activate estrogen-responsive genes. However, when the carboxylic acid is masked as an ester, they bind to the receptor and stimulate estrogenic responses. Enzymatic hydrolysis through nonspecific esterases can inactivate these estrogens and thereby limit their area of action. Here, we describe our continued studies to design "soft" estrogens by synthesizing carboxylic acid esters of estradiol at the 7alpha-, 11beta-, and 15alpha-positions in the steroid nucleus at which bulky substituents are accommodated by the estrogen receptor. These compounds were tested for estrogen receptor binding (estrogen receptors alpha and beta), stimulation of an estrogen sensitive gene in Ishikawa cells in culture, and as substrates for enzymatic hydrolysis. Likely candidates were tested in in vivo assays for systemic and local estrogenic action. The biological studies showed that regardless of the point of attachment, all of the short-chain carboxylic acids, C-1 to C-3, were devoid of hormonal action, while many of the esters were estrogenic. The site on the steroid nucleus had great influence on hormonal activity and esterase hydrolysis. Formate esters at 7alpha and 15alpha were good estrogens, but lengthening the chain to acetate dramatically decreased hormonal activity. However, the 7alpha-formate esters were not enzymatically hydrolyzed. At 11beta, the acetate (methyl ester) was an effective estrogen, but increasing the chain length to propionate dramatically reduced hormonal activity. In general, the length of the alcohol from methyl to butyl had only a small effect on receptor binding, and as the size of the alcohol increased, so did esterase hydrolysis. One exception was the 11beta-acetate esters where increasing the alcohol moiety from methyl to ethyl eliminated estrogenic activity (Ishikawa cells) without affecting estrogen receptor binding. Several of the esters were tested in vivo, and two, the methyl and ethyl esters of estradiol-15alpha-formate, appeared to have the requisite properties (high local and low systemic activity) of superior "soft" estrogens.
