Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors have been used as clinical agents to treat erectile dysfunction and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Herein, we detail the discovery of a novel series of chromeno[2,3-c]pyrrol-9(2H)-one derivatives as selective and orally bioavailable inhibitors against phosphodiesterase 5. Medicinal chemistry optimization resulted in 2, which exhibits a desirable inhibitory potency of 5.6 nM with remarkable selectivity as well as excellent pharmacokinetic properties and an oral bioavailability of 63.4%. In addition, oral administration of 2 at a dose of 5.0 mg/kg caused better pharmacodynamics effects on both mPAP (mean pulmonary artery pressure) and RVHI (index of right ventricle hypertrophy) than sildenafil citrate at a dose of 10.0 mg/kg. These activities along with its reasonable druglike properties, such as human liver microsomal stability, cytochrome inhibition, hERG inhibition, and pharmacological safety, indicate that 2 is a potential candidate for the treatment of PAH.

The palladium complex prepared in situ from [Pd(η3-C3H5)(cod)]BF4 and bidentate phosphine DPPF was a good catalyst for the nucleophilic substitution of benzyl acetate. Significant acceleration of the palladium-catalyzed substitution was observed when an alcohol was employed as a reaction solvent. The palladium catalyst was effective for the benzylation of various stabilized carbanions, amines, and benzenesulfinate with benzylic acetates.

Nine diethyl α-acetamido, α-alkylmalonates 3-11 (alkyl=methyl, benzyl, 3-fluorobenzyl, 4-fluorobenzyl, 2,6-difluorobenzyl, 3-trifluoromethylbenzyl, 4-trifluoromethylbenzyi, 2-chlorobenzyl and 3-chlorobenzyl) have been synthesised in three steps starting with diethyl malonate in overall yields of 49-90%. The structures of C-alkylated acetamidomalonates have been established on the basis of their speciral data, the structures of two compounds 9 and 11 are also confirmed on the basis of their X-ray crystallographic studies. Further, the X-ray crystal structure of the chiral monoethyl ester of α-acetamidomalonic acid 1 has been studied. None of our C-alkylated acetamidomalonate has been found to be a substrate for lipase-catalysed enantiodifferentiating deesterification/hydrolysis of the symmetric diester groups.
