Abstract
A3 adenosine receptor (A3AR) positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) (2,4-disubstituted-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]quinolin-4-amines) allosterically increase the Emax of A3AR agonists, but not potency, due to concurrent orthosteric antagonism. Following mutagenesis/homology modeling of the proposed lipid-exposed allosteric binding site on the cytosolic side, we functionalized the scaffold, including heteroatom substitutions and exocyclic phenylamine extensions, to increase allosteric binding. Strategically appended linear alkyl-alkynyl chains with terminal amino/guanidino groups improved allosteric effects at both human and mouse A3ARs. The chain length, functionality, and attachment position were varied to modulate A3AR PAM activity. For example, 26 (MRS8247, p-alkyne-linked 8 methylenes) and homologues increased agonist Cl-IB-MECA's Emax and potency ([35S]GTPγS binding). The putative mechanism involves a flexible, terminally cationic chain penetrating the lipid environment for stable electrostatic anchoring to cytosolic phospholipid head groups, suggesting "lipid trolling", supported by molecular dynamic simulation of the active-state model. Thus, we have improved A3AR PAM activity through rational design based on an extrahelical, lipidic binding site.

Abstract
A straightforward cross-dehydrogenative coupling approach to incorporate alicyclic amino residues into the structure of model cyclic aldonitrones, 2H-imidazole oxides, is reported. The elaborated C(sp2)-H functionalization is achieved by employing cyclic amines in the presence of the I2-tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) reagent system. As a result, a series of 19 novel heterocyclic derivatives were obtained in yields of up to 97%. A mechanistic study involving electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopic experiments allowed the radical nature of the reaction to be confirmed. In particular, the envisioned mechanistic rationale comprises N-iodination of a cyclic amine, followed by N-I bond homolysis of the resulting intermediate and subsequent amination of the nitrone moiety via the newly generated nitrogen-centered radical.

Abstract
A logic-based replacement of the carboxylic acid component of the Ugi reaction by quinoline N-oxides has been developed. In this approach, the carboxylic isostere, quinoline N-oxide, plays a vital role by shifting the equilibria toward the product side with irreversible addition onto the C2-position of the N-oxide. Thus, aldehydes react with amines, isocyanides, and quinoline N-oxides to furnish quinoline four-component Ugi adducts. The unique reactivity of N-oxides with Ugi components opens an efficient synthetic route for the preparation of biologically active compounds.

Abstract
An efficient and facile approach for the synthesis of quinazolin-4(3H)-ones via the reaction of quinazoline-3-oxides with primary amines is described. This approach is demonstrated to be applicable for a broad range of substrates and proceeds efficiently under metal-free and mild reaction conditions employing easily available tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant. Remarkably, 3-(2-(1H-indol-3-yl) ethyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-one 3w, which was conveniently obtained by this process in 70% yield, was an excellent precursor for the synthesis of bioactive evodiamine and rutaempine.

Abstract
Synthesis of heteroaryl amines has been an important topic in organic chemistry because of their importance in small-molecule discovery. In particular, 2-aminopyrimidines represent a highly privileged structural motif that is prevalent in bioactive molecules, but a general strategy to introduce the pyrimidine C2-N bonds via direct functionalization is elusive. Here we describe a synthetic platform for site-selective C-H functionalization that affords pyrimidinyl iminium salt intermediates, which then can be transformed into various amine products in situ. Mechanism-based reagent design allowed for the C2-selective amination of pyrimidines, opening the new scope of site-selective heteroaryl C-H functionalization. Our method is compatible with a broad range of pyrimidines with sensitive functional groups and can access complex aminopyrimidines with high selectivity.

Abstract
An operationally simple method for synthesizing 2-amino azines via [3+2] dipolar cycloaddition of azine N-oxide with carbodiimide has been demonstrated. The reaction can proceed smoothly under simple heating conditions without any transition metal catalyst, activator, base, and solvent. This transformation demonstrates a broad substrate scope and produces CO2 as the only co-product. The applicability of this method is highlighted by the late-stage modification of bioactive molecules, including quinine, (±)-α-tocopherol, and tryptamine modified quinoline.
