A highly diastereoselective, visible-light-induced [3 + 2] cycloaddition between N-sulfonyl cyclopropylamines and electron-deficient olefins is reported. The reactions proceed via the oxidation of a sulfonamide aza-anion by an organic photocatalyst to generate a nitrogen-centered radical. Strain-induced ring opening and intermolecular addition to the olefin generate an intermediate carbon-centered radical that is reduced to an anion prior to 5-exo cyclization. This enables a highly diastereoselective construction of trans-cyclopentanes possessing synthetically useful functional groups.

Alkyl amines are an important class of organic compounds in medicinal and materials chemistry. Until now very have been very few methods for the synthesis of alkyl amines by metal-catalyzed cross-coupling of alkyl electrophiles with nitrogen nucleophiles. Described here is an approach to employ tandem photoredox and copper catalysis to enable the cross-coupling of alkyl N-hydroxyphthalimide esters, readily derived from alkyl carboxylic acids, with benzophenone-derived imines. Hydrolysis of the coupling products furnish alkylated primary amines. Primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl groups can be transferred, and the coupling tolerates a diverse set of functional groups. The method allows rapid functionalization of natural products and drugs, and can be used to expedite syntheses of pharmaceuticals from readily available chemical feedstocks.

We describe the structure-activity relationship of various arylcyclopropylamines (ACPAs), which are potent LSD1 inhibitors. More than 45 ACPAs were synthesized rapidly by an unconventional method that we have recently developed, consisting of a C-H borylation and cross-coupling sequence starting from cyclopropylamine. We also generated NCD38 derivatives, which are known as LSD1 selective inhibitors, and discovered a more effective inhibitor compared to the original NCD38.

A step-economical and stereodivergent synthesis of privileged 2-arylcyclopropylamines (ACPAs) through a C-(sp3)-H borylation and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling sequence has been developed. The iridium-catalyzed C-H borylation of N-cyclopropylpivalamide proceeds with cis selectivity. The subsequent B-cyclopropyl Suzuki-Miyaura coupling catalyzed by [PdCl2(dppf)]/Ag2O proceeds with retention of configuration at the carbon center bearing the Bpin group, while epimerization at the nitrogen-bound carbon atoms of both the starting materials and products is observed under the reaction conditions. This epimerization is, however, suppressed in the presence of O2. The present new ACPA synthesis results in not only a significant reduction in the steps required for making ACPA derivatives, but also the ability to access either isomer (cis or trans) by simply changing the atmosphere (N2 or O2) in the coupling stage.

LSD1 and LSD2 histone demethylases are implicated in a number of physiological and pathological processes, ranging from tumorigenesis to herpes virus infection. A comprehensive structural, biochemical, and cellular study is presented here to probe the potential of these enzymes for epigenetic therapies. This approach employs tranylcypromine as a chemical scaffold for the design of novel demethylase inhibitors. This drug is a clinically validated antidepressant known to target monoamine oxidases A and B. These two flavoenzymes are structurally related to LSD1 and LSD2. Mechanistic and crystallographic studies of tranylcypromine inhibition reveal a lack of selectivity and differing covalent modifications of the FAD cofactor depending on the enantiomeric form. These findings are pharmacologically relevant, since tranylcypromine is currently administered as a racemic mixture. A large set of tranylcypromine analogues were synthesized and screened for inhibitory activities. We found that the common evolutionary origin of LSD and MAO enzymes, despite their unrelated functions and substrate specificities, is reflected in related ligand-binding properties. A few compounds with partial enzyme selectivity were identified. The biological activity of one of these new inhibitors was evaluated with a cellular model of acute promyelocytic leukemia chosen since its pathogenesis includes aberrant activities of several chromatin modifiers. Marked effects on cell differentiation and an unprecedented synergistic activity with antileukemia drugs were observed. These data demonstrate that these LSD1/2 inhibitors are of potential relevance for the treatment of promyelocytic leukemia and, more generally, as tools to alter chromatin state with promise of a block of tumor progression.

A series of trans-2-aryl-cyclopropylamine derived compounds were synthesized and evaluated their biological activities against DPP-IV. The structure-activity relationships (SAR) led to the discovery of novel series of DPP-IV inhibitors, having IC50 values of 100 nM with excellent selectivity over the closely related enzymes, DPP8, DPP-II and FAP. The studies identified a potent and selective DPP-IV inhibitor 24b, which exhibited the ability to both significantly inhibit plasma DPP-IV activity in rats and improve glucose tolerance in lean mice and diet induced obese mice.
A novel approach to enantiopure cyclopropane compounds from biotransformation of nitriles

Rhodococcus sp. AJ270, a powerful and versatile nitrile hydratase/amidase containing microbial whole-cell system, catalyzed the enantioselective hydrolysis of both racemic trans- and cis-2-arylcyclopropanecarbonitriles to afford the corresponding amides and acids with enantiomeric excesses as high as >99%. The reaction rate and enantioselectivity observed for both nitrile hydratase and amidase were also strongly dependent upon the nature of the substituent and substitution pattern on the benzene ring of the substrates. The application of and the advantages of biotransformation of nitriles were demonstrated by preparing (1S,2R)-2-phenylcyclopropylamine and (1R,2R)-2-phenylcyclopropylmethylamine through facile and straightforward chemical manipulations of (1S,2S)-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid and (1R,2R)-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxamide, respectively.

trans-2-Aryl-N,N-dipropylcyclopropylamines: Synthesis and interactions with 5-HT(1A) receptors

Twelve N,N-dipropyl-substituted derivatives of trans-2- arylcyclopropylamine have been prepared and assayed for their ability to displace [3H]-8-OH-DPAT from rat brain 5-HT(1A) receptors. The new derivatives include phenyl (7a), bromo- (7b) and fluorophenyl (7c-e), 2- methoxy-5-fluorophenyl (7h), and 2-hydroxy-5-fluorophenyl (71) as well as trifluoromethylphenyl (7f) and 2,3-dichlorophenyl (7g) analogues. In the present series of compounds, electron-withdrawing substituents in the phenyl ring appear to decrease the affinity for 5-HT(1A) receptors. In contrast, electron-rich aryl groups, such as 2- or 3-thienyl (7j and 7k, respectively), provide compounds with high affinity. The additional bulk produced by the aromatic moiety in the 2-benzothienyl derivative 7i appears to be detrimental to 5-HT(1A) receptor affinity. The racemic mixtures of the interesting 7j and 7l were resolved into the enantiomers; 7j and 7l exhibited a high enantiomeric 5-HT(1A) receptor affinity ratio (75-fold and 100-fold, respectively). The enantiomers of 7j and 7l were evaluated in vivo by use of biochemical and behavioral tests in rats. Compound (1R,2R)-7j behaved as a partial agonist whereas (1R,2S)-7l appeared as an efficacious 5-HT(1A) receptor agonist, stimulating both autoreceptors and postsynaptic receptors.
