- BENZOTHIOPHENE ALKANOL PIPERAZINE DERIVATIVES AND THEIR USE AS ANTIDEPRESSANT
-
The invention discloses benzothiophene alkanol piperazine derivatives and their use as antidepressants. The invention discloses the said benzothiophene alkanol piperazine derivative having triple inhibition effect on the reuptake of 5-HT, NA and DA. Compared with clinical used antidepressants so far having single target, e.g. desipramine and fluoxetine, and clinical used antidepressants so far having double targets, e.g venlafaxine and duloxetine, the said benzothiophene alkanol piperazine derivatives of the present invention may have a broader indication range and less toxic and side effects to nervous system. The benzothiophene alkanol piperazine derivatives are the compounds with the following formula or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, wherein Ar1, R1-R4, X, Y, m and n have the same definition as defined in claim 1.

- Baker's yeast-mediated synthesis of (R)- and (S)-heteroaryl-ethane-1,2-diols
-
Baker's yeast-mediated enantioselective bioreduction of 1-(heteroaryl)-2-hydroxyethanones and 2-acetoxy-1-(hetero-aryl)ethanones was used for the enantioselective synthesis of both (R)- and (S)-benzofuranyl-, benzo[b]thiophenyl- and benzo[d]thiazolyl-ethane-1,2-diols.

- 2-Arylimino-2,3-dihydrothiazoles, and their use thereof as somatostatin receptor ligands
-
The invention concerns novel 2-arylimino-2,3-dihydrothiazole derivatives of general formula (I), their preparation methods and their use as medicines, in particular for treating pathological conditions or diseases wherein one (or several) somatostatin receptors is/are involved. Said pathological conditions include in particular acromegaly, pituitary adenoma or endocrine gastroenteropanceatic tumors including the carcinoid syndrome, and gastrointestinal bleeding. In general formula (I), R1 represents in particular an alkyl, aralkyl, cyclohexyl radical optionally substituted by an amino radical or R1 represents a —C(R11)(R12)—CO—R10 radical wherein R11 represents H, R12 represents in particular H, carbocyclic or heterocyclic alkyl, cycloalkyl or aralkyl and R10 represents in particular an aminoalkylamino radical; R2 represents a carcyclic or heterocyclic aryl radical optionally substituted; R3 represents in particular COR5 or a carbocyclic or heterocyclic alkyl, adamantyl, aryl radical optionally substituted, carbocyclic or heterocyclic aralkyl optionally substituted on the aryl group; and R5 represents a radical fixed by a nitrogen atom to the group CO.

- Structure-activity relationships of (arylalkyl)imidazole anticonvulsants: Comparison of the (fluorenylalkyl)imidazoles with nafimidone and denzimol
-
A recently discovered and structurally distinct class of antiepileptic drugs is the (arylalkyl)imidazoles. Two independently discovered representatives of this class, denzimol (α-[4-(2-phenylethyl)phenyl]-1H-imidazole-1-ethanol) and nafimidone (2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-1-(2-naphthalenyl)ethanone), are undergoing clinical evaluation. Our structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed that in addition to the naphthalenyl and phenethylphenyl aryl moieties of nafimidone and denzimol, respectively, fluorenyl, benzo[b]thienyl, and benzofuranyl aryl groups provided several highly active (arylalkyl)imidazole anticonvulsants. These structurally diverse aryl moieties, and comparable anticonvulsant activities, lend credence to the hypothesis that the pharmacophore of this class of anticonvulsants is the alkylimidazole portion of the molecule, with the lipophilic aryl portion enabling penetration of the blood-brain barrier. The authors focused their SAR studies on the (fluorenylalkyl)imidazole series. A representative compound from this series is 1-(9H-fluoren-2-yl)-2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethanone. This agent was twice as potent as nafimidone in inhibiting maximal electroshock seizures in mice (po ED50's = 25 and 56 mg/kg, respectively) and considerably less toxic in the rat (po LD50's = 4550 and 504 mg/kg, respectively). The tertiary alcohol α-(9H-fluoren-2-yl)-α-methyl-1H-imidazole-1-ethanol) was as potent as denzimol in mice (po ED50's = 10 and 12 mg/kg, respectively). This series of imidazole anticonvulsants was highly selective; while many compounds displayed potent antielectroshock activity, little or no activity was observed against pentylenetetrazole-induced clonic seizures or in the horizontal screen test for ataxia. All active compounds that we tested in this series, as well as denzimol and nafimidone, potentiated hexobarbital-induced sleeping time in mice, probably by imidazole-mediated inhibition of cytochrome P-450. The SAR's for the anticonvulsant activity and the sleeping time potentiation were similar. The propensity of these (arylalkyl)imidazole anticonvulsants to interact strongly with cytochrome P-450 and thereby impair the metabolism of other antiepileptic drugs may severely limit their clinical utility as anticonvulsants.
