- Potent and Selective Human Neutrophil Elastase Inhibitors with Novel Equatorial Ring Topology: In vivo Efficacy of the Polar Pyrimidopyridazine BAY-8040 in a Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Rat Model
-
Human neutrophil elastase (HNE) is a key driver of inflammation in many cardiopulmonary and systemic inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. Overshooting high HNE activity is the consequence of a disrupted protease-antiprotease balance. Accordingly, there has been an intensive search for potent and selective HNE inhibitors with suitable pharmacokinetics that would allowing oral administration in patients. Based on the chemical probe BAY-678 and the clinical candidate BAY 85-8501 we explored further ring topologies along the equator of the parent pyrimidinone lead series. Novel ring systems were annulated in the east, yielding imidazolo-, triazolo-, and tetrazolopyrimidines in order to ensure additional inhibitor-HNE contacts beyond the S1 and the S2 pocket of HNE. The western annulation of pyridazines led to the polar pyrimidopyridazine BAY-8040, which combines excellent potency and selectivity with a promising pharmacokinetic profile. In vivo efficacy with regard to decreasing cardiac remodeling and amelioration of cardiac function was shown in a monocrotaline-induced rat model for pulmonary arterial hypertension. This demonstrated in vivo proof of concept in animals. Exploring new rings! Human neutrophil elastase (HNE) is a driver of inflammation in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Herein we describe the discovery of BAY-8040, a small-molecule inhibitor with nanomolar potency and good pharmacokinetics. BAY-8040 shows in vivo efficacy in a PAH rat model, thereby demonstrating proof of concept in animals.

- A simple method for the preparation of functionalized trisubstituted alkenes and α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds by using natural amino acid l-tryptophan
-
Primary natural amino acid l-tryptophan was used, for the first time, as a catalyst in Knoevenagel condensations of aliphatic, aromatic, hetero-aromatic and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with less reactive acetylacetone and ethyl acetoacetate. The reactions were carried out at room temperature and gave good yields. It is a convenient entry for preparation of functionalized trisubstituted alkenes and α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds.

- Synthesis, structure, and electrochemical characteristics of 4-aryl-2-carbamoylmethylthio-5-ethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid nitriles
-
We have obtained 4-aryl-2-carbamoylmethylthio-5-ethoxycarbonyl-1,4- dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid nitriles by S-alkylation of the corresponding 2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid nitrile by iodoacetamide or one-pot multicomponent synthesis methods: condensation of 2-arylidene-acetoacetic acid ethyl ester, 2-cyanothioacetamide, piperidine, and iodoacetamide; acetoacetic acid ethyl ester, 3-aryl-2-cyanothioacrylamide, piperidine, and iodoacetamide; acetoacetic acid ethyl ester, an aromatic aldehyde, 2-cyanothioacetamide, piperidine, and iodoacetamide. We have carried out a comparative analysis of the capability of 2-alkylthio-4-aryl-5- ethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid nitriles for electrochemical oxidation as a function of the electronic properties of the aryl substituent in the 4 position of the heterocycle and the 2-alkylthio substituent. X-ray diffraction data indicate the existence of a hydrogen bond between the C=O of the 2-carbamoylmethylthio substituent and the NH of the hydrogenated heterocycle, which explains the more facile oxidation of the studied compounds compared with 2-methylthio-substituted 1,4-dihydropyridines.

- Studies on cerebral protective agents. I. Novel 4-arylpyrimidine derivatives with anti-anoxic and anti-lipid peroxidation activities
-
Novel 4-arylpyrimidine derivatives were synthesized by the oxidation of 4-aryl-1,4-dihydropyrimidines, and their effects on anti-anoxic (AA) activity in mice and anti-lipid peroxidation (ALP) activity in rat brain mitochondria were investigated. Among these compounds, ethyl 6-methyl-2-phenyl-4-(4-pyridyl)-5-pyrimidinecarboxylate (4b) has AA activity (10mg/kg, i.p.) and ethyl 6-methyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylate (4f) has ALP activity (73% inhibition at 10-5 g/ml). The latter compound (100mg/kg, i.p.) was also effective on arachidonate-induced cerebral edema in rats with comparable potency to that of vitamin E.
