A series of epibatidine analogues and their positional isomers bearing an 8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane moiety is described. Some of the compounds, especially those containing 8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-ene moiety show high affinity for the nicotinic cholinergic receptor.

A series of 5- and 6-substituted and unsubstituted 3-heteroaromatic analogues of nicotine were synthesized in an effort to delineate the structural requirements for selectively inhibiting human cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 2A6, the major nicotine metabolizing enzyme. Thiophene, substituted thiophene, furan, substituted furan, imidazole, substituted imidazole, pyridine, substituted pyridine, thiazole, and quinoline moieties were used to replace the N-methylpyrrolidine ring of nicotine. Bromo and methyl groups were introduced at the 5-position of the pyridine ring and fluoro, chloro, and methoxy groups were placed at the 6-position of the pyridine ring in order to explore the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of inhibition of CYP2A6. The inhibitory activity of the most potent CYP2A6 inhibitors on the functional activity of human cytochrome P450s 3A4, 2E1, 2B6, 2C9, 2C19, and 2D6 was also examined to determine inhibitor selectivity. We identified 36 compounds that were more potent than nicotine at inhibition of coumarin 7-hydroxylase (CYP2A6) activity. We also found a number of compounds to be highly selective for the inhibition of human CYP2A6 versus the other human CYPs examined.
New synthetic routes to 3-, 5-, and 6-aryl-2-chloropyridines

The efficient synthesis of 3-, 5-, and 6-aryl-2-chloropyridines via the facile preparation of 5-(dimethylamino)aryl-substituted pentadienyl nitriles and cyclization with hydrochloric acid is described. This approach allows for the introduction of other electron-withdrawing substituents on the pyridine ring as well as the preparation of the desired unsubstituted arylpyridines. Some differences in the rates of cyclization of the pentadienyl nitriles as well as the yields of chloropyridines were observed that depended on the position and degree of substitution in the aryl substituent. The arylpentadienyl nitriles 5 and 6 could also be converted directly into the corresponding 2-aminopyridines.
