- Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of N-benzyl substituted 4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamines as 5-HT2A/2C partial agonists
-
N-Benzyl substitution of phenethylamine 5-HT2A receptor agonists has dramatic effects on binding affinity, receptor selectivity and agonist activity. In this paper we examine how affinity for the 5-HT2A/2C receptors are influenced by N-benzyl substitution of 4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine derivatives. Special attention is given to the 2′ and 3′-position of the N-benzyl as such compounds are known to be very potent. We found that substitutions in these positions are generally well tolerated. The 2′-position was further examined using a range of substituents to probe the hydrogen bonding requirements for optimal affinity and selectivity, and it was found that small changes in the ligands in this area had a profound effect on their affinities. Furthermore, two ligands that lack a 2′-benzyl substituent were also found to have high affinity contradicting previous held notions. Several high-affinity ligands were identified and assayed for functional activity at the 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptor, and they were generally found to be less efficacious agonists than previously reported N-benzyl phenethylamines.

- A facile one-pot synthesis of benzimidazoles from 2-nitroanilines by reductive cyclization
-
A facile one-pot process to prepare benzimidazole derivatives is described. Reductive cyclization of a serial of 2-nitroanilines with orthoesters in the presence of Pd/C in methanol at room temperature, which is promoted by a catalytic amount of acetic acid, affords the corresponding benzimidazole derivatives in high yields.

- Resistance-modifying agents. 9. Synthesis and biological properties of benzimidazole inhibitors of the DNA repair enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase
-
The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) facilitates the repair of DNA strand breaks and is implicated in the resistance of cancer cells to certain DNA-damaging agents. Inhibitors of PARP have clinical potential as resistance-modifying agents capable of potentiating radiotherapy and the cytotoxicity of some forms of cancer chemotherapy. The preclinical development of 2-aryl-1H-benzimidazole-4-carboxamides as resistance-modifying agents in cancer chemotherapy is described. 1H-Benzimidazole-4-carboxamides, particularly 2-aryl derivatives, are identified as a class of potent PARP inhibitors. Derivatives of 2-phenyl-1H-benzimidazole-4-carboxamide (23, K(i) = 15 nM), in which the phenyl ring contains substituents, have been synthesized. Many of these derivatives exhibit K(i) values for PARP inhibition 10 nM, with 2-(4-hydroxymethylphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-4-carboxamide (78, K(i) = 1.6 nM) being one of the most potent. Insight into structure-activity relationships (SAR) for 2-aryl-1H-benzimidazole-4-carboxamides has been enhanced by studying the complex formed between 2-(3-methoxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-4-carboxamide (44, K(i) = 6 nM) and the catalytic domain of chicken PARP. Important hydrogen-bonding and hydrophobic interactions with the protein have been identified for this inhibitor. 2-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-4-carboxamide (45, K(i) = 6 nM) potentiates the cytotoxicity of both temozolomide and topotecan against A2780 cells in vitro (by 2.8- and 2.9-fold, respectively).

- Benzimidazole compounds
-
Benzimidazole-4-carboxamide compounds (I) which can act as potent inhibitors of the DNA repair enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase or PARP enzyme (EC 2.4.2.30), and which thereby can provide useful therapeutic compounds for use in conjunction with DNA-damaging cytotoxic drugs or radiotherapy to potentiate the effects of the latter. In formula (I), R and R' may each be selected independently from hydrogen, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl (e.g. CH2CH2OH), acyl (e.g. acetyl or benzoyl) or an optionally substituted aryl (e.g. phenyl) or aralkyl (e.g. benzyl or carboxybenzyl) group. R is generally a substituted phenyl group in the most preferred compounds. The compounds may also be used in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts or pro-drugs.

- Synthesis and evaluation of heterocyclic carboxamides as potential antipsychotic agents
-
Heterocyclic analogues of 1192U90, 2-amino-N-(4-(4-(1,2-benzisothiazol- 3-yl)-1-piperazinyl)-butyl)benzamide hydrochloride (1), were prepared and evaluated as potential antipsychotic agents. These analogues were evaluated in vitro for their binding to the dopamine D2, serotonin 5-HT2, and serotonin 5-HT(1a) receptors and in vivo for their ability to antagonize the apomorphine-induced climbing response in mice. Nine different types of heterocyclic carboxamides were studied in this investigation (i.e., pyridine- , thiophene-, benzothiophene-, quinoline-, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-, 2,3- dihydroindole-, indole-, benzimidazole-, and indazolecarbox-amides). Two derivatives exhibited potent in vivo activities comparable to 1: 3-amino-N- (4(4-(1,2-benzisothiazol-3-yl)-1-piperazinyl)butyl)-2-pyridinecarboxamide (16) and 3-amino-N-(4(4-(1,2-benzisothiazol-3-yl)-1-piperazinyl)butyl)-2- thiophenecarboxamide (29). Furthermore, these derivatives were found to be much less active in behavioral models predictive of extrapyramidal side effects than in the mouse climbing assay, which predicts antipsychotic activity. Carboxamides 16 and 29 were selected for further evaluation as potential backup compounds to 1.

- Structure-activity relationships of imidazo[4,5-f]quinoline partial structures and analogs. Discovery of pyrazolo[3,4-f]quinoline derivatives as potent immunostimulants
-
Structure-activity studies have been carried out on a series of imidazo[4,5-f]quinoline derivatives reported to have potent in vivo immunostimulatory activity. This activity has been confirmed, and subtle structure-activity relationships have been uncovered which resulted in the identification of novel analogs (pyrazolo[3,4-f]quinoline derivatives, 7a,b) with potent in vivo effects in a mouse protection model. Regioisomeric pyrazolo[4,3-f]quinoline derivatives (6a,b) were shown to be inactive. Data are presented which support the notion that the in vivo activity is mediated by an immunostimulatory mechanism.
