- Nuclear factor-κB mediated inhibition of cytokine production by imidazoline scaffolds
-
The mammalian nuclear transcription factor NF-κB is responsible for the transcription of multiple cytokines, including the pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6). Elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines play an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Inhibition of the pro-inflammatory transcription factor NF-κB has therefore been identified as a possible therapeutic treatment for RA. We describe herein the synthesis and biological activity of a series of imidazoline-based scaffolds as potent inhibitors of NF-κB mediated gene transcription in cell culture as well as inhibitors of TNF-α and IL-6 production in interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) stimulated human blood.

- Studies on the synthesis of 1-aminoalkylphosphonates from aldehydes using silica-supported ammonium hydrogen carbonate
-
Studies on the use of silica-supported ammonium hydrogen carbonate as an efficient reagent for the synthesis of 1-amino-phosphonates under microwave irradiation in solvent-free conditions is reported. Investigations showed that this reaction proceeds by the formation of methanediamine as an intermediate. The reaction in the absence of diethyl phosphite gave cis-imidazolines as the major products.

- Cycloaddition reactions of 1,3-diazabuta-1,3-dienes with alkynyl ketenes
-
The cycloaddition reactions of 'all-carbon' 1,3-diazabuta-1,3-dienes with a few conjugated and unconjugated alkynyl ketenes are described. The reactions provide some interesting azetidinones and dihydropyrimidinones bearing an alkynyl moiety. The regiochemistry of cycloadduct is related with the degree of conjugation of the alkynyl ketene. Moreover, two alternative approaches to 'all-carbon' 1,3-diazabuta-1,3-dienes are reported.

- On the racemization of chiral imidazolines
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Racemization of chiral imidazolines with base has been studied for the first time following an unexpected finding in the synthesis of chiral imidazoline ligands. Amine bases do not cause racemization. Strong inorganic bases can induce racemization, yet this occurs only when the nitrogen is unsubstituted, in agreement with a symmetry-allowed thermal disrotatory ring opening and closure from a diazapentadienyl anion. Surprisingly, even with electron-withdrawing N-substituents, no racemization is observed. Conditions which allow for the racemization-free manipulations of this important compound class have been defined and developed.

- A convenient preparation of enantiomerically pure (+)-(1R,2R)- and (-)-(1S,2S)-1,2-diamino-1,2-diphenylethanes
-
A gram-scale preparation of (1S,2S)- and (1R,2R)-1,2-diamino-1,2- diphenylethanes, (1S,2S)-1 and (1R,2R)-1, is reported via (±)-iso-amarine 4. Strategically, the activation of (±)-iso-amarine 4 for hydrolysis to the required diamines and enantiomeric resolution is achieved simultaneously by formation of two separable diastereoisomeric N-acylamidines 5 and 6 derived from direct DCC-mediated coupling of (±)-iso-amarine 4 with (R)-acetylmandelic acid. iso-Amarine 4 is conveniently obtained from amarine 3, and a one-pot synthesis of the latter is reported from benzaldehyde and hexamethyldisilazane as catalysed by benzoic acid.
