Assembling of medium/long chain-based β-arylated unnatural amino acid derivatives via the Pd(II)-catalyzed sp3 β-C-H arylation and a short route for rolipram-type derivatives

In this paper, we report the assembling of libraries of β-arylated short/medium/long chain-based non-α-amino acid (aminoalkanoic acid) derivatives via the Pd(II)-catalyzed, bidentate directing group 8-aminoquinoline-aided sp3 β-C-H activation/arylation method. Short/medium chain-based unnatural amino acid derivatives containing an aryl group at the β-position are promising small molecules with therapeutic properties. Thus, it is necessary to enrich the libraries of short/medium/long chain-based unnatural amino acid derivatives containing an aryl group at the β-position. Considering the importance of β-arylated short/medium/long chain-based non-α-amino acid derivatives, an inclusive attention was paid to explore the Pd(II)-catalyzed sp3 β-C-H arylation of short/medium/long chain-based non-α-amino acids. Representative synthetic transformations including a short route for the assembling of rolipram and related compounds and 3-arylated GABA derivatives such as, baclofen, phenibut and tolibut were shown using selected β-C-H arylated non-α-amino acid derivatives.

Synthesis and pharmacological activity of fluorescent histamine H1 receptor antagonists related to mepyramine

Fluorescently labeled histamine H1 receptor antagonists were synthesized starting from N-demethylmepyramine by introduction of ω-aminoalkyl chains (2-8 methylene groups in length) followed by derivatization of the terminal NH2 group with various fluorophores (fluorescein, naphthofluorescein, rhodamine, tetramethylrhodamine, BODIPY, dansyl, and nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD)). On the isolated guinea pig ileum and in a Ca2+ assay on U373MG human glioblastoma cells the highest H1 antagonistic activities were found in 5- and 6-carboxyfluorescein labeled compounds with hexa- and octamethylene spacers and in an analogous NBD-aminohexanoyl derivative (pA2 or pKB values in the range: 8.3-9.0; compared to 9.3-9.4 for mepyramine).

Synthesis and neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor antagonistic activity of N,N-disubstituted ω-guanidino- and ω-aminoalkanoic acid amides

Patent arpromidine-type histamine H2 receptor agonists such as BU-E-76 (He 90481) were among the first non-peptides reported to display weak neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y1 receptor antagonist activity. In search of new chemical leads for the development of more potent NPY antagonists, a series of N,N-disubstituted ω-guanidino and ω-aminoalkanoic acid amides were synthesized on the basis of structure-activity relationships and molecular modeling studies of arpromidine and related imidazolylpropylguanidines. In one group of compounds the imidazole ring was retained whereas in the second group it was replaced with a phenol group representing a putative mimic of Tyr36 in NPY. Although the substitution patterns have not yet been optimized, the title compounds are NPY Y1 antagonists in human erythroleukemia (HEL) cells (Ca2+ assay) achieving pK(B) values in the range of 6.3-6.6. For representative new substances tested in the isolated guinea pig right atrium histamine H2 receptor agonism could not be found. In the N-(diphenylalkyl)amide series, compounds with a trimethylene chain were more active Y1 antagonists than the ethylene homologs. Concerning the spacer in the ω-amino or ω-guanidinoalkanoyl portion, the best activity was found in compounds with a four- or five-membered alkyl chain or a 1,4-cyclohexylene group. Surprisingly, in contrast to the phenol series, in the imidazole series the compounds with a side chain amino group turned out to be considerably mere potent than the corresponding strongly basic guanidines. Thus, the structure-activity relationships appear to be different for the diphenylalkylamide NPY antagonists with one or two basic groups.

Hypolipidemic activity of phthalimide derivatives. IV: Further chemical modification and investigation of the hypolipidemic activity of N-substituted imides

A further investigation of N-substituted derivatives of phthalimide for hypolipidemic activity has revealed that the chain length, as well as the type of substitution on the N-alkyl chain of phthalimide is critical for biological activity. In these studies the hypolipidemic activity was not improved by extending the chain length beyond five carbon atoms in the alkyl and alkanoic acid series. Imido nitrogen substitutents, other than alkanoic acids, methyl ketones, and alkyl groups, caused a reduction in hypolipidemic activity, e.g., hydroxy, amino, hydroxymethyl, or carbethoxy. Reduction of the keto group in the side chain to an alcohol, as well as forming derivatives of the keto group, did not improve the hypolipidemic activity with the exception of 1-N-phthalimidobutan-3-one semicarbazone. This compound demonstrated improved hypocholesterolemic activity over phthalimide and 1-N-phthalimidobutan-3-one. Substitution of the 3-position of the aromatic moiety of phthalimide with an amino or nitro group, as well as substituting a pyridine or cyclohexyl ring for the phenyl ring, led to the loss of hypolipidemic activity.
