Tumor progression loci-2 (Tpl2) (Cot/MAP3K8) is a serine/threonine kinase in the MAP3K family directly upstream of MEK. Recent studies using Tpl2 knockout mice have indicated an important role for Tpl2 in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced production of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and other proinflammatory cytokines involved in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. Initial 4-anilino-6-aminoquinoline-3-carbonitrile leads showed poor selectivity for Tpl2 over epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase. Using mol. modeling and crystallog. data of the EGFR kinase domain with and without an EGFR kinase-specific 4-anilinoquinazoline inhibitor (erlotinib, Tarceva), the authors hypothesized that the authors could diminish the inhibition of EGFR kinase by substitution at the C-8 position of the 4-anilino-6-aminoquinoline-3-carbonitrile leads. The 8-substituted-4-anilino-6-aminoquinoline-3-carbonitriles were prepared from the appropriate 2-substituted 4-nitroanilines. Modifications to the C-6 and C-8 positions led to the identification of compounds with increased inhibition of TNF-α release from LPS-stimulated rat and human blood, and these analogs were also highly selective for Tpl2 kinase over EGFR kinase. Further structure-activity based modifications led to the identification of 8-bromo-4-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenylamino)-6-[(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methylamino]quinoline-3-carbonitrile, which demonstrated in vitro as well as in vivo efficacy in inhibition of LPS-induced TNF-α production The experimental part of the paper was very detailed, including the reaction process of Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-5-carbaldehyde(cas: 372147-50-7Application In Synthesis of Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-5-carbaldehyde)
Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-5-carbaldehyde(cas: 372147-50-7) belongs to imidazoles.Imidazole rings are also present in imidazole ring alkaloids, which are potential therapeutics for thrombosis, cancer and inflammatory diseases.Application In Synthesis of Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-5-carbaldehyde Although other azole heterocycles are ubiquitous in a wide range of biologically active natural products, imidazole rings occur predominantly in the natural amino acid histidine.
