NOVEL SUBSTITUTED CONDENSED PYRIMIDINE COMPOUNDS

Novel substituted condensed pyrimidine compounds of general formula (I) in which the chemical groupings, substituents and indices are as defined in the description, and to their use as medicaments, in particular as medicaments for the treatment of conditions and diseases that can be treated by inhibition of the PDE4 enzyme.

Highly diastereo- and enantioselective Mannich reaction of lactones with N-Boc-aldimines catalyzed by bifunctional rosin-derived amine thiourea catalysts

A highly efficient diastereo- and enantioselective Mannich reaction of lactones with a variety of N-Boc-aldimines by using bifunctional rosin-derived amine thiourea catalysts was investigated for the first time, in general, affording the adducts bearing q

Synthesis, in vitro and in vivo activity of thiamine antagonist transketolase inhibitors

Tumor cells extensively utilize the pentose phosphate pathway for the synthesis of ribose. Transketolase is a key enzyme in this pathway and has been suggested as a target for inhibition in the treatment of cancer. In a pharmacodynamic study, nude mice with xenografted HCT-116 tumors were dosed with 1 ('N3′-pyridyl thiamine'; 3-(6-methyl-2-amino-pyridin-3-ylmethyl)-5-(2-hydroxy-ethyl)-4-methyl-thiazol-3-ium chloride hydrochloride), an analog of thiamine, the co-factor of transketolase. Transketolase activity was almost completely suppressed in blood, spleen, and tumor cells, but there was little effect on the activity of the other thiamine-utilizing enzymes α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase or glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. Synthesis and SAR of transketolase inhibitors is described.

C3-homologation. Synthesis of C19-skipped polyenic pheromones

Total synthesis of three sex pheromone components including an all-cis diene or triene unit are described. Starting from decanal, cis-Wittig reactions, by using C3 homologating agent 4 and convenient phosphonium salts, allowed us to built up all-cis skipp
