A series of novel 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline derived azoles has been designed and synthesized as antifungal agents which might function as inhibitors of cytochrome P-450 dependent lanosterol 14α-demethylase. In vitro tests showed that some of these compounds, especially 5b and 6b, effectively inhibit the growth of several strains of yeasts as well as molds.
Discovery of Dihydropyrrolo[1,2- a]pyrazin-3(4 H)-one-Based Second-Generation GluN2C- And GluN2D-Selective Positive Allosteric Modulators (PAMs) of the N-Methyl- d -Aspartate (NMDA) Receptor

The N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is an ion channel that mediates the slow, Ca2+-permeable component of glutamatergic synaptic transmission in the central nervous system (CNS). NMDARs are known to play a significant role in basic neurological functions, and their dysfunction has been implicated in several CNS disorders. Herein, we report the discovery of second-generation GluN2C/D-selective NMDAR-positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) with a dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3(4H)-one core. The prototype, R-(+)-EU-1180-453, exhibits log unit improvements in the concentration needed to double receptor response, lipophilic efficiency, and aqueous solubility, and lowers cLogP by one log unit compared to the first-generation prototype CIQ. Additionally, R-(+)-EU-1180-453 was found to increase glutamate potency 2-fold, increase the response to maximally effective concentration of agonist 4-fold, and the racemate is brain-penetrant. These compounds are useful second-generation in vitro tools and a promising step toward in vivo tools for the study of positive modulation of GluN2C- and GluN2D-containing NMDA receptors.
