Sustainable Chromatography (an oxymoron?)(Link)

Green Chemistry
July 15, 2014
Chromatography is routinely used in drug discovery as a means to isolate intermediates and final compounds. From a sustainability perspective, it is one of the largest contributors of solvent waste in the drug discovery process.

Discovery and optimization of potent and selective imidazopyridine and imidazopyridazine mTOR inhibitors.(Link)

Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters
August 1, 2012
mTOR is a critical regulator of cellular signaling downstream of multiple growth factors. The mTOR/PI3K/AKT pathway is frequently mutated in human cancers and is thus an important oncology target. Herein we report the evolution of our program to discover ATP-competitive mTOR inhibitors that demonstrate improved pharmacokinetic properties and selectivity compared to our previous leads. Through...more

One of the largest contributors to chlorinated solvent waste in medicinal chemistry is chromatography. A set of “drug-like” compounds was employed to compare the relative eluting strengths of greener solvent systems. Disclosed herein is an experimentally-derived solvent selection guide to aid chemists in choosing greener solvents for chromatographic purification, with a particular focus on...more


Discovery of triazine-benzimidazoles as selective inhibitors of mTOR.(Link)

Bioorganic Medicinal Chemistry Letters
February 12, 2011
mTOR is part of the PI3K/AKT pathway and is a central regulator of cell growth and survival. Since many cancers display mutations linked to the mTOR signaling pathway, mTOR has emerged as an important target for oncology therapy. Herein, we report the discovery of triazine benzimidazole inhibitors that inhibit mTOR kinase activity with up to 200-fold selectivity over the structurally homologous...more

Tetrahedron Letters
May 26, 2010
A step-wise, room temperature procedure for acyl azide formation and the subsequent Curtius rearrangement of phenyl and heteroaryl acetic acids is described. We have developed a protocol for room temperature Curtius rearrangement in MeOH or CHCl3 that provides an improvement over standard conditions, avoiding the use of additives or heat. This room temperature optimization of the Curtius...more


Enantioselective, thiourea-catalyzed intermolecular addition of indoles to cyclic N-acyl iminium ions.(Link)

Angewandte Chemie International Edition

Enantioselective Pictet−Spengler-Type Cyclizations of Hydroxylactams:  H-Bond Donor Catalysis by Anion Binding(Link)

Journal of the American Chemical Society
October 17, 2007
Highly enantioenriched indolizinone and quinolizinone products are obtained in the thiourea-catalyzed cyclization of tryptamine-derived hydroxylactams. Substituent and counterion effect studies point to a novel mechanism of catalysis involving rate-limiting anion abstraction and binding by the thiourea.

Contiguous stereogenic quaternary carbons: a daunting challenge in natural products synthesis.(Link)

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
August 17, 2004
One element of structure that invariably increases the difficulty of a chemical synthesis is the presence in the target molecule of contiguous all-carbon quaternary stereocenters. This Perspective will examine the most useful transformations and strategies devised recently for directly assembling this structural unit.

Tetrahedron
August 25, 2003
The enantioselective total synthesis of the nonacyclic polypyrrolidinoindoline (−)-idiospermuline is described. Stereocontrolled formation of the vicinal quaternary carbon centers is achieved in a single step by dialkylation of an unsymmetrical prostereogenic dienolate with a tartrate-derived chiral dielectrophile. A catalyst-controlled diastereoselective Heck cyclization is employed to form the...more

Stereogenic quaternary carbons present the primary challenge in the syntheses of trispyrrolidinoindoline alkaloids such as idiospermuline. In its synthesis the two contiguous quaternary centers are expediently addressed by combining the lithium dienolate of a differentially protected dihydroisoindigo with a tartrate-derived electrophile. The third quaternary stereocenter is introduced by a...more


An expedient total synthesis of (±)-caparratriene(Link)

Tetrahedron Letters
July 2, 1999
(±)-Caparratriene has been synthesized by two succinct routes. The first relies on two Wittig reactions and produces (±)-caparratriene and its 2Z isomer as an inseparable 2:1 mixture. The second more efficient synthesis produces only the naturally occurring 2E isomer and proceeds in 36% overall yield. The key step in this short synthesis is the Suzuki coupling of E-2-bromo-2-butene with the E-...more

Ph.D, Medicinal Organic Chemistry
2003 – 2008
Research work focused on design and synthesis of novel scaffolds which act as nuclear receptor modulator and used for the prevention and treatment of various high profile human diseases such as breast cancer, endometrial cancer, osteoporosis, diabetes and in fertility regulation etc. Among the nuclear hormone receptors super gene family we are most interested in estrogen receptor (ER) and also in peroxisome-proliferators-activated receptor for anti-diabetic activity. As estrogen action is also associated with many health problems in women. In order to use estrogen receptor modulator in its full length, we have designed some selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERMs). The aim of the present dissertation is synthesis and identification of some novel scaffolds with selective agonistic as well as antagonistic activity in desired tissue profiles and further the biological evaluation of these scaffolds in vitro cell line model and in vivo animal models for predictive clinical utility.
