Journal ArticleDOI

NAD(P)H:Quinone Oxidoreductase-1-Dependent and -Independent Cytotoxicity of Potent Quinone Cdc25 Phosphatase Inhibitors.

TL;DR: NQO1 detoxified Cpd 5, probably by reducing it to a less active hydroquinone, whereas NSC 95397- and NSC 663284-generated cytotoxicity was unaffected by NQO2, indicating similar Cdc25 inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and biological evaluation of caulibugulones A–E

TL;DR: The marine bryozoan metabolites caulibugulone A-E were prepared from a readily available isoquinoline dione and found to be potent and selective inhibitors of the dual specificity phosphatase Cdc25B.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zirconocene-catalyzed epoxy ester - ortho ester rearrangement: A new method for the protection of polyfunctionalized carboxylic acids and the asymmetric synthesis of ortho esters

TL;DR: In situ prepared Cp2(Cl)Zr catalyzes the formation of ortho eśters from epoxy esters as discussed by the authors, and acid-sensitive α-amino and α-hydroxy acid derivatives are converted in high yield to 2,7,8-trioxabicyclo[3.2.1] octanes (ABO-esters) using this protocol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthetic applications of organozirconocenes

TL;DR: In this paper, a transmetalation scheme for carbon-zirconium bond formation was developed for selective alkylation reactions with organic electrophiles, and the resulting functional group tolerance of organozirconocenes is useful for the preparation of the organometallic species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combinatorial chemistry and contemporary pharmacology.

TL;DR: Cell-based assays that use optical endpoints permit investigation of a wide variety of functional properties of these compounds including specific intracellular biochemical pathways, protein-protein interactions, and the subcellular localization of targets.
