Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is a promising target for the treatment of later stage cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease. A set of pseudo-irreversible BChE inhibitors with high selectivity over hAChE was synthesized based on carbamates attached to tetrahydroquinazoline scaffolds with the 2-thiophenyl compound 2p as the most potent inhibitor of eqBChE (KC = 14.3 nM) and also of hBChE (KC = 19.7 nM). The inhibitors transfer the carbamate moiety onto the active site under release of the phenolic tetrahydroquinazoline scaffolds that themselves act as neuroprotectants. By combination of kinetic data with molecular docking studies, a plausible binding model was probed describing how the tetrahydroquinazoline scaffold guides the carbamate into a close position to the active site. The model explains the influence of the carrier scaffold onto the affinity of an inhibitor just before carbamate transfer. This strategy can be used to utilize the binding mode of other carbamate-based inhibitors.

In this study, the carbamate structure of pseudo-irreversible butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitors was optimized with regard to a longer binding to the enzyme. A set of compounds bearing different heterocycles (e.g., morpholine, tetrahydroisoquinoline, benzimidazole, piperidine) and alkylene spacers (2 to 10 methylene groups between carbamate and heterocycle) in the carbamate residue was synthesized and characterized in vitro for their binding affinity, binding kinetics, and carbamate hydrolysis. These novel BChE inhibitors are highly selective for hBChE over human acetycholinesterase (hAChE), yielding short-, medium-, and long-acting nanomolar hBChE inhibitors (with a half-life of the carbamoylated enzyme ranging from 1 to 28 h). The inhibitors show neuroprotective properties in a murine hippocampal cell line and a pharmacological mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD), suggesting a significant benefit of BChE inhibition for a disease-modifying treatment of AD.

Paragraph 0045, (2016/10/08)
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a chemical compound production method realizing easy and high-yield production of a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound useful as a synthetic intermediate and the like in many fields such as medicine, agriculture and synthetic resin additives. SOLUTION: In the production method, an ortho-substituted benzene azide derivative represented by formula (1) is reacted with carbon dioxide in the presence of a reductant to obtain a compound represented by formula (2). [R is H and/or a substituent; A is an intramolecular cyclizable group; and B is a divalent linking group of C, N and O. COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPOandINPIT
