    Abstract: The present invention provides a scalable process for producing a concentrate containing a mass of a farnesylated dibenzodiazepinone by fermenting in an aqueous culture medium a strain of a microorganism that is capable of producing the farnesylated dibenzodiazepinone, upon completion of fermentation harvesting the fermentation broth and extracting the fermentation broth to provide an extract, and thereafter treating the extract to form the concentrate. The concentrate so produced may be utilized in downstream processes for producing pharmaceutical compounds. A strain of a Micromonospora species capable of producing a farnesylated dibenzodiazepinone at a high yield rate is provided, together with culture media for culturing microorganisms, and fermentation conditions for production of the farnesylated dibenzodiazepinone of the concentrate.

  • Publication number: 20100189762
    Abstract: Compounds, pharmaceutical compositions including the compounds, and methods of preparation and use thereof are disclosed. The compounds are triphenyl methane analogs. The compounds and compositions can be used to treat and/or prevent a wide variety of cancers, including drug resistant cancers, inflammatory, degenerative and vascular diseases, including various ocular diseases, and parasitic infections. Representative triphenyl methane analogs include triphenyl methane analogues of various dyes, hormones, sugars, peptides, oligonucleotides, amino acids, nucleotides, nucleosides, and polyols. The compounds are believed to function by inhibiting tNOX expression, the effects of ROS, and/or the production of HIF2. Thus, the compounds are novel therapeutic agents for a variety of cancers and other diseases.

  • Publication number: 20090239849
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel class of aryl-fused spirocyclic compounds. These compounds can inhibit histone deacetylase and are suitable for use in selectively inducing terminal differentiation, and arresting cell growth and/or apoptosis of neoplastic cells, thereby inhibiting proliferation of such cells. Thus, the compounds of the present invention are useful in treating a patient having a tumor characterized by proliferation of neoplastic cells. The compounds of the invention may also be useful in the prevention and treatment of TRX-mediated diseases, such as autoimmune, allergic and inflammatory diseases, and in the prevention and/or treatment of diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), such as neurodegenerative diseases.

  • Publication number: 20090203901
    Abstract: The present invention provides innovative strategies for synthesizing pyrazole ring-functionalized benzodiazepinones. Alternative intermediates and high conversion strategies for forming alpha-aminobenzophenone intermediates involve a combination of aromatic acylation, displacement of electronegative leaving groups with amine, and then N-displacement strategies to produce the desired alpha-aminobenzophenone with primary amine functionality. Reaction strategies are then provided for converting alpha-aminobenzophenones to alpha-aminoamidobenzophenone intermediates with high yield and convenient reaction strategies. These alpha-aminoamidobenzophenone intermediates are then converted into benzodiazepinones. These benzodiazepinones are then converted to pyrazole ring functionalized benzodiazepinones through a series of innovative intermediates and/or reaction strategies.
