- Evaluation of the Structure-Activity Relationship of Microtubule-Targeting 1,2,4-Triazolo[1,5- a]pyrimidines Identifies New Candidates for Neurodegenerative Tauopathies
-
Studies in tau and Aβ plaque transgenic mouse models demonstrated that brain-penetrant microtubule (MT)-stabilizing compounds, including the 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines, hold promise as candidate treatments for Alzheimer's disease and related neurodegenerative tauopathies. Triazolopyrimidines have already been investigated as anticancer agents; however, the antimitotic activity of these compounds does not always correlate with stabilization of MTs in cells. Indeed, previous studies from our laboratories identified a critical role for the fragment linked at C6 in determining whether triazolopyrimidines promote MT stabilization or, conversely, disrupt MT integrity in cells. To further elucidate the structure-activity relationship (SAR) and to identify potentially improved MT-stabilizing candidates for neurodegenerative disease, a comprehensive set of 68 triazolopyrimidine congeners bearing structural modifications at C6 and/or C7 was designed, synthesized, and evaluated. These studies expand upon prior understanding of triazolopyrimidine SAR and enabled the identification of novel analogues that, relative to the existing lead, exhibit improved physicochemical properties, MT-stabilizing activity, and pharmacokinetics.

- A new Knoevenagel-type synthesis of fully substituted γ- hydroxybutenolides
-
The synthesis of fully substituted γ-hydroxybutenolides is possible by a Knoevenagel-type ring condensation of α-methyleneketones and α-ketoesters under basic conditions. This novel transformation allowed the preparation of di-aryl/heteroaryl substituted hydroxyfuranones, such as 20 and 27, which are important intermediates for pyridazine fungicides. As it turned out, a whole range of different substituents, such as alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl and ester groups could be linked to the butenolide scaffold, demonstrating the broad scope of the novel cyclization.

- Method for the production of substituted 2-aryl malonic acid esters
-
The present invention relates to a process for preparing substituted 2-arylmalonic esters of the general formula I in which R is C1-C6-alkyl or C1-C4-alkoxy-C1-C4-alkyl; Ar is phenyl or a heteroaromatic 5- or 6-membered ring; where each carbon atom present in the radicals mentioned above optionally carries a substituent RA; RA is F, Cl, CN, NO2, C1-C4-alkyl, C1-C4-haloalkyl, C1-C4-alkoxy, C1-C4-haloalkoxy, etc., or two adjacent substituents RA together with the carbon atoms to which they are attached form a ring; and where a malonic ester is reacted with a base and an aryl bromide in the presence of a copper salt, which comprises employing from 0.1 to 0.65 molar equivalents of the base per molar equivalent of the malonic ester.
