Abstract
A set of arylazopyrazole-based inhibitors targeting the mitotic motor protein CENP-E was discovered through the chemical platform using the quantitative cyclization of 1,3-diketone intermediate with various hydrazines under mild conditions. Through this efficient platform, the structure–activity relationship pertaining to the pyrazole photoswitch in photoswitchable CENP-E inhibitors not only in vitro but also in cells was successfully clarified.
