- 2-Amino-1,3-thiazol-4(5H)-ones as potent and selective 11β- hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors: Enzyme-ligand co-crystal structure and demonstration of pharmacodynamic effects in C57Bl/6 mice
-
11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) has attracted considerable attention during the past few years as a potential target for the treatment of diseases associated with metabolic syndrome. In our ongoing work on 11β-HSD1 inhibitors, a series of new 2-amino-1,3-thiazol-4(5H)-ones were explored. By inserting various cycloalkylamines at the 2-position and alkyl groups or spirocycloalkyl groups at the 5-position of the thiazolone, several potent 11β-HSD1 inhibitors were identified. An X-ray cocrystal structure of human 11β-HSD1 with compound 6d (Ki = 28 nM) revealed a large lipophilic pocket accessible by substitution off the 2-position of the thiazolone. To increase potency, analogues were prepared with larger lipophilic groups at this position. One of these compounds, the 3-noradamantyl analogue 8b, was a potent inhibitor of human 11β-HSD1 (Ki = 3 nM) and also inhibited 11β-HSD1 activity in lean C57Bl/6 mice when evaluated in an ex vivo adipose and liver cortisone to cortisol conversion assay.

- NOUVELLES METHODES DE DESHALOGENATION ET DE FORMATION D'ALKYLTRIMETHYLACETALS DE CETENE PAR ACTION DE iPr2NLi SUR QUELQUES α-BROMOESTERS
-
A previously described method consisting in reacting LDA with α-bromoketones has been extended to α-bromoesters.Deshalogenation (after hydrolysis) and formation of ketene alkyltrimethylsilyl acetals (after SiMe3Cl addition) occur and show the generality of the method.

- 7-Acyl-3-(substituted triazolyl thiomethyl)cephalosporins
-
The compounds of this invention are cephalosporins having various acyl substituents at the 7-position and a substituted triazolyl thiomethyl group at the 3-position of the cephem nucleus and intermediates for the preparation thereof. The 7-acylated compounds have antibacterial activity.
