Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a pleiotropic cytokine with a major role in immune system homeostasis and is involved in many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriasis, Alzheimer's disease (AD), and multiple sclerosis (MS). Thus, TNF and its receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2, are relevant pharmacological targets. Biologics have been developed to block TNF-dependent signaling cascades, but they display serious side effects, and their pharmacological effectiveness decreases over time because of their immunogenicity. In this review, we present recent discoveries in small molecules targeting TNF and its receptors and discuss alternative strategies for modulating TNF signaling. Teaser: This review presents several recent and innovative strategies for the modulation of tumor necrosis factor function, with a focus on small molecules.

Abstract
O-(ω-Alkynyl) hydroxamates derived from cyclobutenyl carboxylic acids were identified as viable substrates in intramolecular rhodium(III)-catalyzed heteroannulations, which led to diversely substituted cyclobuta[c]pyridones. Further functionalization of the resulting cyclobutapyridones enabled the synthesis of cyclobuta[c]pyridines and other nitrogen heterocycles after electrocyclic ring opening of the four-membered ring.
