The development of small molecular inhibitors to target the guanine nucleotide exchange factor SOS1 has been proved to be a hopeful strategy for the treatment of various KRAS-driven cancers. Constructing novel SOS1 inhibitors is urgently needed due to the increasing drug resistance arising from structural similarity of earlier analogs. Herein, we discovered a new SOS1 inhibitor with para-dimethylaminoazetidine quinazoline scaffold. The most potent compound 10i showed superior activity to the reported SOS1 inhibitor Hit 1 in both the KRASG12C::SOS1 PPI inhibition assay and 3D proliferation inhibitory assay, and compound 10i presented enhanced aqueous solubility under physiologically relevant pH 6.8. Moreover, compound 10i could downregulate the levels of phosphorylated ERK and AKT in the NCI-H358 cancer cell line. Overall, these studies showed that 10i was a promising drug candidate for the treatment of KRAS-driven cancer.

JAK2 is a promising target for treating myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). However, existing JAK2 inhibitors cannot fully cure these diseases and may induce resistance with prolonged use. Here, we report the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a series of highly potent JAK2 degraders based on our previously developed inhibitor WWQ-131.

A new series of benzimidazole-oxadiazole-small molecules were synthesized and confirmed with various spectroscopic techniques. The prepared derivatives exhibited significant inhibitory activity against the proliferation of different cancer cells. The benzimidazoles 10f, 10 h, 10 g, and 10i showed broad anticancer activity with no selectivity in five-dose assays.

The antibacterial efficacy of some newly developed bis- and C3-carboxylic moieties of fluoroquinolone-linked triazole conjugates was studied. Twenty compounds from two different series of triazoles were synthesized using click chemistry and evaluated for their antibacterial activity against a Gram-positive strain, (ATCC29212), and its clinical isolate and a Gram-negative bacterial strain, (ATCC25922), and its clinical isolate. Among the compounds, 7, 9a, 9d, 9i, 10(a-d), and 10i showed excellent activity with MIC values of up to 6.

Sugar mimics are valuable tools in medicinal chemistry, offering the potential to overcome the limitations of carbohydrate inhibitors, such as poor pharmacokinetics and non-selectivity. In our continued efforts to develop heterocyclic galectin-1 inhibitors, we report the synthesis and characterization of thiazole-linked coumarin piperazine hybrids (10a-10i) as Gal-1 inhibitors. The compounds were characterized using H NMR, C NMR and HRMS.
