- Amide-Based Cinchona Alkaloids as Phase-Transfer Catalysts: Synthesis and Potential Application
-
Herein we present a library of simple amide derivatives of Cinchona alkaloids in the form of quaternary ammonium salts. The obtained derivatives can be generated very easily and efficiently from inexpensive and commercially available substrates. We tested this class of alkaloids in the alkylation of glycine derivative, carried out under phase-transfer catalyst conditions. The presented hybrid catalysts offer both high reaction yields (up to 97%) and high enantioselectivities of the obtained product (up to 94% ee).

- Design, synthesis and pharmacology of aortic-selective acyl-CoA: Cholesterol O-acyltransferase (ACAT/SOAT) inhibitors
-
We describe our molecular design of aortic-selective acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol O-acyltransferase (ACAT, also abbreviated as SOAT) inhibitors, their structure–activity relationships (SARs) and their pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacological profiles. The connection of two weak ligands—N-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)acetamide (50% inhibitory concentration [IC50] = 8.6 μM) and 2-(methylthio)benzo[d]oxazole (IC50 = 31 μM)—via a linker comprising a 6 methylene group chains yielded a highly potent molecule, 9-(benzo[d]oxazol-2-ylthio)-N-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)nonanamide (3h) that exhibited high potency (IC50 = 0.004 μM) toward aortic ACAT. This head-to-tail design made it possible to markedly enhance the activity to 2150- to 7750-fold and to discriminate the isoform-selectivity based on the double-induced fit mechanism. At doses of 1 and 3 mg/kg, 3h significantly decreased the lipid-accumulation areas in the aortic arch to 74 and 69%, respectively without reducing the plasma total cholesterol level in high fat- and cholesterol-fed F1B hamsters. Here, we demonstrate the antiatherosclerotic effect of 3h in vivo via its direct action on aortic ACAT and its powerful modulator of cholesterol level. This molecule is a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of diseases involving ACAT-1 overexpression.

- Synthesis of amido-N-imidazolium salts and their applications as ligands in suzuki-miyaura reactions: Coupling of hetero- aromatic halides and the synthesis of milrinone and irbesartan
-
A new catalytic system based on palladium-amido-N-heterocyclic carbenes for Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions of heteroaryl bromides is described. A variety of sterically bulky, amido-N-imidazolium salts were synthesized in high yields from the corresponding anilines. This catalytic system effectively promoted Suzuki-Miyaura couplings of heteroaryl bromides and chlorides with a range of boronic acids to give the corresponding aryl compounds in high yield. The yield was increased with increasing steric bulkiness of the substituted group. Especially, 1-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-3-N-(2,4,6-tri-tert- butylphenylacetamido)imidazolium bromide (4bc) exhibited 850,000 TON in the coupling reaction of 2-bromopyridine and phenylboronic acid. In addition, pharmaceutical compounds such as milrinone and irbesartan were synthesized via Suzuki-Miyaura coupling using sterically bulky, amido-N-imidazolium salt (4bc) as a ligand. Copyright

- Design of chiral hydroxyalkyl- and hydroxyarylazolinium salts as new chelating diaminocarbene ligand precursors devoted to asymmetric copper-catalyzed conjugate addition
-
The design and the synthesis of a set of new chiral hy- droxyalkyl- and hydroxyaryl-chelating diaminocarbene ligands is reported. Comparative catalytic studies show the importance of the scaffold design around the NHC unit to obtain a high enantiocontrol in Cu-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition (ACA). Whereas low selectivities are observed when the stereogenic centre is placed within the N-heterocyclic ring, an interesting match effect can be observed when central chirality is located within both of the two side chains, which enables up to 92 % ee in the catalysis reaction.

- Pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acids as endothelin antagonists. 4. Side chain conformational restriction leads to ET(B) selectivity
-
When the dialkylacetamide side chain of the ETA-selective antagonist ABT-627 is replaced with a 2,6-dialkylacetanilide, the resultant analogues show a complete reversal of receptor selectivity, preferring ETB over ETA. By optimizing the aniline substitution pattern, as well as the alkoxy group on the 2-aryl substituent, it is possible to prepare antagonists with subnanomolar affinity for ETB and with selectivities in excess of 4000-fold. A number of these compounds also show promising pharmacokinetic profiles; a useful balance of properties is found in A-192621 (38). Pharmacology studies with A-192621 serve to reveal the role of the ETB receptor in modulating blood pressure; the observed hypertensive response to persistent ETB blockade is consistent with previous postulates and indicates that ETB-selective antagonists may not be suitable as agents for long-term systemic therapy.
