Glycine was acylated with isothiocyanates and condensed to 3-alkyl 2-thiohydantoins, which were reduced with a mixture of sodium borohydride and lithium chloride and dehydrated to 1-alkyl imidazole-2-thiones. These were oxidatively desulfurized to imidazoles with benzoyl peroxide. No chromatography was required for model compounds. The methods developed were used to elaborate tyrosine to 1,4-di(p-methoxybenzyl)imidazole, a common intermediate in the syntheses of three imidazoles from the sponge Leucetta.

Substituted 2-sulfinylimidazoles were synthesized and investigated as potential inhibitors of gastric H+/K+-ATPase. The 4,5-unsubstituted imidazole series 6-11 and the 1,4,5,6-tetrahydrocyclopent[d]imidazole series 12 were found to be potent inhibitors of the acid secretory enzyme H+/K+- ATPase. Structure-activity relationships indicate that the substitution of 2- pyridyl groups at the 1-position of the imidazole moiety combined with (2- aminobenzyl)sulfinyl groups at the 2-position leads to highly active compounds with a favorable chemical stability. Other substitution patterns in the imidazole moiety result in reducing biological activities. 2-[(2- Aminobenzyl)sulfinyl]-1-[2-(3-methylpyridyl)]-1,4,5,6- tetrahydrocyclopent[d]imidazole (12h, T-776) was selected for further development as a potential clinical candidate. Extensive study on the acid degradation of 12h indicates a mechanism of action different from that of omeprazole, the first H+/K+-ATPase inhibitor introduced to the market.
