, p. 3002 - 3005 (2016/07/06)
The methylation of amines by paraformaldehyde in the presence of calcium hydride as a source of hydrogen and palladium on charcoal as catalyst was studied. Depending on the quantity of paraformaldehyde, monomethylated and dimethylated amines were selectively and efficiently prepared in one pot with good yields.

Here we employed structure-based ligand discovery techniques to explore a recently determined crystal structure of the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2B (5-HT2B) receptor. Ten compounds containing a novel chemical scaffold were identified; among them, seven molecules were active in cellular function assays with the most potent one exhibiting an IC50 value of 27.3 nM. We then systematically probed the binding characteristics of this scaffold by designing, synthesizing, and testing a series of structural modifications. The structure-activity relationship studies strongly support our predicted binding model. The binding profiling across a panel of 11 5-HT receptors indicated that these compounds are highly selective for the 5-HT2B receptor. Oral administration of compound 15 (30 mg/kg) produced significant attenuation of visceral hypersensitivity in a rat model of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). We expect this novel scaffold will serve as the foundation for the development of 5-HT2B antagonists for the treatment of IBS.

Metal hydride mediated reduction of 3-(alkylthio)oxifidoles containing other potentially reducible groups
Connolly, Terrence J.,Durst, Tony
, p. 536 - 541 (2007/10/03)
The reduction of several 3-(methylthio)oxindoles bearing ester groups on the benzene ring has been studied. The reaction is very dependent on the substitution of the oxindole, and the position of the ester group. Deprotonation of the C3 center by the metal hydride is the major initial pathway. This deprotonation plays a role in the reduction of the pendant ester group. Ester groups ortho, and presumably para, to C3 are very difficult to reduce, reaction only occurring with excess LiAlH4 at elevated temperatures. Once reduction starts, it is very difficult to stop, with reduction of the ester to a methyl group being observed. When deprotonation at this center is blocked, ester reduction becomes straightforward and can be accomplished at room temperature with LiEt3BH.
