The lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of trans- and cis-2-azidocycloalkanols and the preparation of enantiomerically pure trans- and cis-2-aminocycloalkanols are described. Four kinds of lipases were screened for the acetylation of trans- and cis-2-azidocycloalkanols. Among them, Pseudomonas sp. lipases (lipase PS and lipase AK, Amamo Pharmaceutical Co.) showed the highest enantioselectivity. These products were converted to the corresponding 2-aminocycloalkanols to determine their enantiomeric excess (ee) and absolute configurations by HPLC and CD analyses, using (S)-TBMB carboxylic acid [(S)-2-tert-butyl-2-methyl-1,3-benzodioxole-4-carboxylic acid] as the chiral conversion reagent. The results of the CD analysis proved N,O-bis-(S)-TBMB carboxylated cis-2-aminocycloalkanols to adopt a predominantly N-equatorial conformation. The partially resolved trans- and cis-2-aminocycloalkanols, except for trans-2-aminocyclopentanol, were recrystallized from ethyl acetate to give enantiomerically pure forms.

We have previously described the design and development of CI-988, a peptoid analogue of CCK-4 with excellent binding affinity and selectivity for the CCK-B receptor. Due to its anxiolytic profile in animal models of anxiety, this compound was developed as a clinical candidate. However, during its development, it was determined that CI-988 had low bioavailability in both rodent and nonrodent species. In the clinic, it was further established that CI-988 had poor bioavailability. Thus, there was a need to identify an analogue with an improved pharmacokinetic (PK) profile. The poor bioavailability was attributed to poor absorption and efficient hepatic extraction. We envisaged that reducing the molecular weight of the parent compound (5, MW = 614) would lead to better absorption. Thus, we synthesized a series of analogues in which the key α-methyltryptophan and adamantyloxycarbonyl moieties, required for receptor binding, were kept intact and the C-terminus was extensively modified. This SAR study led to the identification of tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]dec-2-yl [1S-[1α(S*)2β]-[2-[(2- hydroxycyclohexyl)amino]-1-(1H-indol-3-ylmethyl)-1-methyl-2- oxoethyl]carbamate (CI-1015, 31) with binding affinities of 3.0 and 2900 nM for the CCK-B and CCK-A receptors, respectively. The compound showed CCK-B antagonist profile in the rat ventromedial hypothalamus assay with a K(e) of 34 nM. It also showed an anxiolytic like profile orally in a standard anxiety paradigm (X-maze) with a minimum effective dose (MED) of 0.1 μg/kg. Although the compound is less water soluble than CI-988, oral bioavailability in rat was improved nearly 10 times relative to CI-988 when dosed in HPβCD. The blood-brain permeability of CI-1015 (31) was also enhanced relative to CI- 988 (5). On the basis of the overall improved pharmacokinetic profile as well as enhanced brain penetration, CI-1015 (31) was chosen as a development candidate.
