Generations of modulators of the efflux pump P-glycoprotein (P-gp) have been produced as tools to counteract the Multidrug Resistance (MDR) phenomenon in tumor therapy, but clinical trials were not successful so far. With the aim of contributing to the development of novel P-gp modulators, we started from recently studied high-affinity sigma-2 (σ2) receptor ligands that showed also potent interaction with P-gp. For σ2 receptors high-affinity binding, a basic N-atom is a strict requirement. Therefore, we reduced the basic character of the N-atom present in these ligands, and we obtained potent P-gp modulators with poor or null σ2 receptor affinity. We also evaluated whether modulation of P-gp by these novel compounds involved consumption of ATP (as P-gp substrates do), as a source of energy to support the efflux. Surprisingly, even small structural changes resulted in opposite behavior, with amide 13 depleting ATP, in contrast to its isomer 18. Two compounds, 15 and 25, emerged for their potent activity at P-gp, and deserve further investigations as tools for P-gp modulation.

Copper-catalyzed N-arylation of azoles and diazoles using highly functionalized trivalent organobismuth reagents

The N-arylation of indoles, indazoles, pyrroles, and pyrazoles using highly functionalized trivalent arylbismuth reagents is reported. The reaction is promoted by a substoichiometric amount of copper acetate, and it tolerates a wide diversity of functional groups on the azole and the organobismuth reagent. The method is also applied to the N-arylation of tryptophan derivatives. This journal is the Partner Organisations 2014.

A series of 4-(1H-indol-3-yl)-1-butyl-substituted 4-phenylpiperidines, 4- phenyl-1,2,3,6-terrahydropyridines, and 4-phenylpiperazines was synthesized. The phenyl group was optionally substituted with 4-fluoro or 2-methoxy substituents. High affinity for both σ1 and σ1 binding sites was achieved with these compounds. Additionally, these compounds had relatively high affinity for serotonin 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2A), dopamine D2, and adrenergic α1 receptors. Introduction of a 4-fluorophenyl substituent at the indole nitrogen atom rendered very selective σ2 ligands with subnanomolar affinity for the σ2 binding site. The prototype of such a compound was 1-(4- fluorophenyl)-3-[4-[4-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-piperidinyl]-1-butyl]-1H-indole, 11a (code no. Lu 29-253). This compound had the following binding affinities: IC50 (σ1) = 16 nM, IC50 (σ2) = 0.27 riM, IC50 (5-HT(1A)) = 22 000 nM, IC50 (5-HT(2A)) = 270 nM, IC50 (D2) = 4200 nM, IC50 (α1) = 220nM. Spiro-joining of the phenyl and the piperidine rings into a spiro[isobenzofuran-1(3H),4'-piperidinel ring system resulted in even more selective compounds. Variations of the 1-substituent at the indole and of the chain length of the alkylene spacer group were studied. The optimal compound was the spiro analogue of compound 11a. This compound is 1'-14-[1(4- fluorophenyl)-1H-indol-3-yl]-1-butyl]spiro[isobenzofuran-1(3H),4'- piperidine], 14f (code no. Lu 28-179), with the binding affinities: IC50 (σ1) = 17 nM, IC50 (σ2) = 0.12 nM, IC50 (5-HT(1A)) = 21 000 nM, IC50 (5-HT(2A)) = 2000 nM, IC50 (D2) = 800 nM, IC50 (α1) = 330 nM. However, the most selective σ2 versus σ1 ligand was the tropane derivative 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-[4-[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-8- azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-en-8-yl]-1-butyl]-1H-indole, 15a. This compound had the following binding affinities: IC50 (σ1) = 1200 nM, IC50 (σ2) = 2.5 nM. Potent anxiolytic activity in the black/white box exploration test in rats was found with the two most prominent σ2 ligands Lu 29-253 and Lu 28- 179. Good penetration into the CNS was documented both after subcutaneous and peroral administration of Lu 28-179 by ex vivo binding studies. Long duration of action was demonstrated both in ex vivo binding (T(1/2) ~ 20 h) and in the black/white box exploration test.
