- Synthesis of arylglycine and mandelic acid derivatives through carboxylations of α-amido and α-acetoxy stannanes with carbon dioxide
-
Incorporation reactions of carbon dioxide (CO2) with N-Boc-α-amido and α-acetoxy stannanes were developed using CsF as a mild tin activator. Monoprotected α-amido stannanes could be used, and the corresponding arylglycine derivatives were obtained in moderate-to-high yields under 1 MPa (10 atm) of CO2 pressure. α-Acetoxy stannanes also underwent carboxylation to afford mandelic acid derivatives in excellent yields under ambient CO2 pressure. Both transformations enabled the synthesis of α-tertiary and α-quaternary carboxylic acid derivatives. In addition, the chirality of (S)-N-tert-butylsulfonyl-α- amido stannanes was transferred with up to 90% inversion of configuration at 100 °C.

- Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of potential anticonvulsants based on 2-piperidinecarboxylic acid and related pharmacophores
-
Using N-(2,6-dimethyl)phenyl-2-piperidinecarboxamide (1) and N-(α-methylbenzyl)-2-piperidinecarboxamide (2) as structural leads, a variety of analogues were synthesised and evaluated for anticonvulsant activity in the MES test in mice. In the N-benzyl series, introduction of 3-Cl, 4-Cl, 3,4-Cl2, or 3-CF3 groups on the aromatic ring led to an increase in MES activity. Replacement of the α-methyl group by either i-Pr or benzyl groups enhanced MES activity with no increase in neurotoxicity. Substitution on the piperidine ring nitrogen led to a decrease in MES activity and neurotoxicity, while reduction of the amide carbonyl led to a complete loss of activity. Movement of the carboxamide group to either the 3- or 4-positions of the piperidine ring decreased MES activity and neurotoxicity. Incorporation of the piperidine ring into a tetrahydroisoquinoline or diazahydrinone nucleus led to increased neurotoxicity. In the N-(2,6-dimethyl)phenyl series, opening of the piperidine ring between the 1- and 6-positions gave the active norleucine derivative 75 (ED50 = 5.8 mg kg-1, TD50 = 36.4 mg kg-1, PI = 6.3). Replacement of the piperidine ring of 1 by cycloalkane (cyclohexane, cyclopentane, and cyclobutane) resulted in compounds with decreased MES activity and neurotoxicity, whereas replacement of the piperidine ring by a 4-pyridyl group led to a retention of MES activity with a comparable PI. Simplification of the 2-piperidinecarboxamide nucleus of 1 into a glycinecarboxamide nucleus led to about a six-fold decrease in MES activity. The 2,6-dimethylanilides were the most potent compounds in the MES test in each group of compounds evaluated, and compounds 50 and 75 should be useful leads in the development of agents for the treatment of tonic-clonic and partial seizures in man.

- Highly selective tripeptide thrombin inhibitors
-
Tripeptide aldehydes such as Boc-D-Phe-Pro-Arg-H (5l) exhibit potent direct inhibition of thrombin. This distinction offers important insight for the design of more potent and selective serine protease inhibitors which may be useful pharmacological tools and hold promise for development of clinically useful agents. The structure-activity relationships (SAR) on a series of anticoagulant peptides with high selectivity for the enzyme thrombin are discussed. The SAR is centered on a series of di- and tripeptide arginine aldehydes based on the structure of 5l. The structural and conformational role of the amino acid residue in position 1 was investigated by substitution with conformationally restricted aromatic amino acids, aromatic acids, and a dipeptide isostere containing the ψ[CH2N] amide bond replacement. Many of these peptides demonstrate potent antithrombotic activity along with selectivity toward thrombin, determined by comparison of in vitro inhibitory effects on trypsin, plasmin, factor Xa, and tissue plasminogen activator. Compound 5f, D-1-Tiq-Pro-Arg-H · sulfate is highly active and the most selective tripeptide aldehyde inhibitor of thrombin reported to date.
