Methodology to access fluorescent 3-amido-1,8-naphthalimides using direct Buchwald-Hartwig amidation is described. The protocol was successfully used to couple a number of substrates (including an alkylamide, an arylamide, a lactam and a carbamate) to 3-bromo-1,8-naphthalimide in good yield. To further exemplify the approach, a set of scriptaid analogues with amide substituents at the 3-position were prepared. The new compounds were more potent than scriptaid at a number of histone deacetylase ( ...[more]
