Activation of the CB2 receptor is an attractive therapeutic strategy for the treatment of a wide range of inflammatory diseases. However, receptor subtype selectivity is necessary in order to circumvent the psychoactive effects associated with activation of the CB1 receptor. We aimed to use potent, non-selective synthetic cannabinoids designer drugs to develop selective CB2 receptor agonists. Simple structural modifications such as moving the amide substituent of 3-amidoalkylindole synthetic cannabinoids to the 2-position and bioisosteric replacement of the indole core to the 7-azaindole scaffold are shown to be effective and general strategies to impart receptor subtype selectivity. 2-Amidoalkylindole 16 (EC50 CB1 > 10 μM, EC50 CB2 = 189 nM) and 3-amidoalkyl-7-azaindole 21 (EC50 CB1 > 10 μM, EC50 = 49 nM) were found to be potent and selective agonists with favourable physicochemical properties. Docking studies were used to elucidate the molecular basis for the observed receptor subtype selectivity for these compounds.

Paragraph 1-1, (2018/01/11)
Problem to be Solved It is intended to provide an industrially preferable fluoroalkylating agent and use thereof. Solution The present invention provides a fluoroalkylating agent represented by the general formula (1) wherein R1 is a C1 to C8 fluoroalkyl group; R2 and R3 are each independently a C1 to C12 alkyl group or the like; Y1 to Y4 are each independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or the like; and X? is a monovalent anion. A compound of the general formula (3): R4—S—R1 having an introduced C1 to C8 fluoroalkyl group is easily obtained by reacting a compound of the general formula (2): R4—S—Z wherein R4 is a hydrocarbon group or the like; and Z is a leaving group, with the compound of the general formula (1).

Abstract The synthesis of a new alkylmethylimidazolium ionic liquid wherein the alkyl group is functionalized with dihexylphosphine oxide moiety at the terminal position has been achieved in four steps from 1-methylimidazole. This hybrid ionic liquid effectively catalyzed the nucleophilic fluorination of primary alkyl mesylates under mild conditions using CsF as the fluoride source with a faster rate compared to butylmethylimidazolium mesylate. The hybrid catalyst was recycled 5 times without compromising the yield and purity of the product. The nucleophilic fluorination has been used for the synthesis of diethyl 2-(5-fluoropentyl)-2-methyl malonate, a precursor of 18F isotopomer of an apoptosis imaging agent and the protected form of O-(2'-fluoroethyl)-l-tyrosine, a 18F isotopomer of a tumor imaging agent.

A new protocol for the reductive deoxygenation of primary alcohols was explored. This photo-mediated method combines a novel approach to bromination of alcohols merged with the powerful reducing capability of [Au2(dppm)2]Cl2 [dppm = 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane] as a photoredox catalyst. The highly efficient methods discussed are marked by the use of UVA light-emitting diodes, which have significantly reduced reaction times and lowered setup cost.

experimental part, p. 140 - 145 (2012/02/06)
The development of new means of activating molecules and bonds for chemical reactions is a fundamental objective for chemists. In this regard, visible-light photoredox catalysis has emerged as a powerful technique for chemoselective activation of chemical bonds under mild reaction conditions. Here, we report a visible-light-mediated photocatalytic alcohol activation, which we use to convert alcohols to the corresponding bromides and iodides in good yields, with exceptional functional group tolerance. In this fundamentally useful reaction, the design and operation of the process is simple, the reaction is highly efficient, and the formation of stoichiometric waste products is minimized.

(S)-N-(2-Pyrrolidinylmethyl)pyrrolidine/trifluoroacetic acid (3:1) combination catalyzed the direct addition of alkyl methyl ketones to β-dimethyl(phenyl)silylmethylene malonate at the methyl terminal with high yield and excellent regio- and enantioselectivity. The silyl group played crucial roles in regioselection and substrate reactivity.
