Compounds which directly inhibit IRE-1α activity in vitro, prodrugs, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Such compounds and prodrugs are useful for treating diseases associated with the unfolded protein response or with regulated IRE1-dependent decay (RIDD) and can be used as single agents or in combination therapies.

In one aspect, the disclosure relates to a method for the direct synthesis of complex N,N,O-trisubstituted hydroxylamines by N—O bond formation. In another aspect, the method can successfully be employed using a wide variety of commercially available alcohols and secondary amines and enables the construction of large fragment-based libraries of trisubstituted hydroxylamines for drug discovery purposes. Also disclosed are N,N,O-trisubstituted hydroxylamines having low basicity, high stability at ambient temperatures, and an inherent lack of reactivity towards acetylating and sulfonylating enzymes that confer mutagenicity on less-substituted hydroxylamines.

Provided are compounds of Formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and methods for their use and production.

Provided herein are compounds, derivatives thereof, composition comprising one or more of said compounds and derivatives, and methods for prevention and/or treatment of microbial infections and/or related diseases or conditions. The present compounds and/or derivatives thereof can be represented by Formula (II):

##STR00001##

The present methods include administering to a subject an effective amount of one or more compounds of Formula (II). In one embodiment, said microbial infections are bacterial infections. More specifically, said bacterial infections are staphylococcal infections.

Provided herein are compounds of Formula (I), (I-A), (I-B), (II), (II-A), (II-B), (III), (M-A), (IV), and (IV-A), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof described herein. Also provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound Formula (I), (I-A), (I-B), (II), (II-A), (II-B), (III), (III-A), (IV), and (IV-A), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and methods of using a compound of Formula (I), (I-A), (I-B), (II), (II-A), (II-B), (III), (III-A), (IV), and (IV-A), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, e.g., in the treatment of a mental health disease or disorder. ##STR00001##

Provided herein are compounds of Formula (I), (I-A), (I-B), (II), (II-A), (II-B), (III), (M-A), (IV), and (IV-A), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof described herein. Also provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound Formula (I), (I-A), (I-B), (II), (II-A), (II-B), (III), (III-A), (IV), and (IV-A), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and methods of using a compound of Formula (I), (I-A), (I-B), (II), (II-A), (II-B), (III), (III-A), (IV), and (IV-A), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, e.g., in the treatment of a mental health disease or disorder. ##STR00001##

A compound represented by general formula (I) (in the formula, all symbols are as described in the description) or a salt thereof has a potent nerve-protecting and/or -repairing activity, and therefore can be used as a therapeutic agent for neuropathy (e.g., chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, Guillain-Barre syndrome, periarteritis nodosa, allergic vasculitis, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, entrapment neuropathy, peripheral neuropathy associated with the administration of a chemotherapeutic drug, or peripheral neuropathy associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease).
