- Aryl Ether Syntheses via Aromatic Substitution Proceeding under Mild Conditions
-
In this study, mild conditions for aromatic substitutions during the syntheses of aryl ethers were developed. In the reaction conditions, the choices of solvent, base, and the sequence for the addition of the reagents proved important. A wide variety of alcohols were used directly as nucleophiles and smoothly reacted with aryl chlorides that possessed either a nitro or a cyano group at either the ortho- or para-position. Controlled experiments we performed suggested that the reaction underwent a charge-transfer process mediated by a combination of DMF and tert-BuOK.

- New β-alanine derivatives are orally available glucagon receptor antagonists
-
A weak human glucagon receptor antagonist with an IC50 of 7 μM was initially found by screening of libraries originally targeted to mimic the binding of the glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) hormone to its receptor. Optimization of this hit for binding affinity for the glucagon receptor led to ligands with affinity in the nanomolar range. In addition to receptor binding, optimization efforts were made to stabilize the molecules against fast metabolic turnover. A potent antagonist of the human human glucagon receptor was obtained that had 17% oral availability in rats with a plasma half-life of 90 min. The major metabolites of this lead were identified and used to further optimize this series with respect to pharmacokinetic properties. This final optimization led to a potent glucagon antagonist that was orally available in rats and dogs and was efficacious in lowering blood glucose levels in a diabetic animal model.

- Determining the σ-donor ability of the cyclopropane C-C bond
-
The low temperature crystal structures of ester and ether derivatives of varying electron demand, derived from cyclopropylmethanol 8 and dicyclopropylmethanol 9, have been determined. These structures show a very strong response of the C-OR bond distance to the electron demand of the OR substituent, demonstrating the strong σ-donor ability of the strained C-C bonds in the cyclopropane ring.
