Alkylation reaction of acetonitrile using primary alcohols is effectively catalyzed by [RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3] in the presence of K 3PO4 as a base. Both benzylic and non-benzylic alcohols coupled with acetonitrile to give alkylated nitriles in good yields.

A series of β2-adrenoceptor agonists with an 8-(2-amino-1-hydroxyethyl)-6-hydroxy-1,4-benzoxazine-3(4H)-one moiety is presented. The stimulatory effects of the compounds on human β2-adrenoceptor and β1-adrenoceptor were characterized by a cell-based assay. Their smooth muscle relaxant activities were tested on isolated guinea pig trachea. Most of the compounds were found to be potent and selective agonists of the β2-adrenoceptor. One of the compounds, (R)-18c, possessed a strong β2-adrenoceptor agonistic effect with an EC50 value of 24 pM. It produced a full and potent airway smooth muscle relaxant effect same as olodaterol. Its onset of action was 3.5 min and its duration of action was more than 12 h in an in vitro guinea pig trachea model of bronchodilation. These results suggest that (R)-18c is a potential candidate for long-acting β2-AR agonists.

A new protocol for the synthesis of nitriles from carbonyl compounds with elongation of the molecule with two carbon atoms was developed. It involves a reaction of ethyl cyanoacetate with different aldehydes in the presence of iron pentacarbonyl as a redu

Catalytic transfer hydrocyanation represents a clean and safe alternative to hydrocyanation processes using toxic HCN gas. Such reactions provide access to pharmaceutically important nitrile derivatives starting with alkenes and alkynes. Herein, an efficient and practical cooperative palladium/Lewis acid-catalyzed transfer hydrocyanation of alkenes and alkynes is presented using 1-methylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carbonitrile as a benign and readily available HCN source. A large set of nitrile derivatives (>50 examples) are prepared from both aliphatic and aromatic alkenes with good to excellent anti-Markovnikov selectivity. A range of aliphatic alkenes engage in selective hydrocyanation to provide the corresponding nitriles. The introduced method is useful for chain walking hydrocyanation of internal alkenes to afford terminal nitriles in good regioselectivities. This protocol is also applicable to late-stage modification of bioactive molecules.

An efficient and highly productive rhodium-catalyzed method for the synthesis of nitriles employing aldehydes or ketones, methyl cyanoacetate, water and carbon monoxide as starting materials has been developed. Simple rhodium chloride without any ligands can be used. The fine tuning of the substrate can lead to the activity higher than 5000 TON.
Development of Decarboxylative Cyanation Reactions for C-13/C-14 Carboxylic Acid Labeling Using an Electrophilic Cyanating Reagent

Degradation-reconstruction approaches for isotope labeling synthesis have been known for their remarkable efficiency, but applications are scarce due to some fundamental limitations of the chemistries developed to date. The decarboxylative cyanation reaction, as a degradation-reconstruction approach, is especially useful in rapid carboxylic acid carbon isotope labeling, however development toward its application as a widespread technique has stalled at the early stages due to numerous limitations which include somewhat narrow applicability. Employing the electrophilic cyanating reagent N-cyano-N-phenyl-p-toluenesulfonamide (NCTS) as the cyano source, efficient decarboxylative cyanation chemistry has been developed for aryl and alkyl carboxylic acids respectively with two rationally designed reaction pathways. The reactions provided good yields of nitrile products from carboxylic acids, with complete retention of isotopic purity from the [13CN]-NCTS used. The reaction conditions are relatively mild requiring no oxidant and no excess toxic heavy metal and the reagent [13/14CN]-NCTS is a stable, easy-to-handle crystalline solid that can be prepared quickly and effectively from the readily available [13/14C]-KCN. The following work describes this novel and efficient method for alkyl and aryl carboxylic acid isotopic labeling using a single reagent.

An efficient method for the rhodium on carbon matrix catalyzed preparation of secondary and tertiary amines, cyanoesters, and nitriles through the reductive amination/alkylation of carbonyl compounds was developed, including a convenient procedure for the tandem formal reductive addition of acetonitrile to aldehydes. The catalyst could be reused, and at least three consecutive reaction cycles were performed with comparable efficiency. The method was shown to be compatible with functional groups prone to reduction by hydrogen and complex hydrides. Beyond the matrix: An efficient method for the rhodium on carbon matrix catalyzed preparation of secondary and tertiary amines, cyanoesters, and nitriles through the reductive amination/alkylation of carbonyl compounds is developed, including a convenient procedure for the tandem formal reductive addition of acetonitrile to aldehydes.

Structure-based design of inhibitors of purine nucleoside phosphorylase. 1. 9-(Arylmethyl) derivatives of 9-deazaguanine

Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP, EC 2.4.2.1) is a salvage enzyme important to the T-cell-mediated part of the immune system and as such is an important therapeutic target. This paper describes the design, synthesis, and enzymatic evaluation of potent, competitive inhibitors of PNP. Potential inhibitors were designed using the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme in an iterative process that involved interactive computer graphics to model the native enzyme and complexes of it with the inhibitors, Monte Carlo-based conformational searching, and energy minimization. Studies of the enzyme/inhibitor complexes were used to determine priorities of the synthetic efforts. The resulting compounds were then evaluated by determination of their IC50 values and by X-ray diffraction analysis using difference Fourier maps. In this manner, we have developed a series of 9-(arylmethyl)- 9-deazapurines (2-amino-7-(arylmethyl)-4H-pyrrolo[3,2-d]-pyrimidin-4-ones) that are potent, membrane-permeable inhibitors of the enzyme. The IC50 values of these compounds range from 17 to 270 nM (in 1 mM phosphate), with 9-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-9-deazaguanine being the most potent inhibitor. X-ray analysis explained the role of the aryl groups and revealed the rearrangement of hydrogen bonds in the binding of the 9-deazaguanines in the active site of PNP relative to the binding of the 8-aminoguanines that results in more potent inhibition of the enzyme.
