Primary amino acid derivatives (PAADs) (N′-benzyl 2-substituted 2-amino acetamides) are structurally related to functionalized amino acids (FAAs) (N′-benzyl 2-substituted 2-acetamido acetamides) but differ by the absence of the terminal N-acetyl group. Both classes exhibit potent anticonvulsant activities in the maximal electroshock seizure animal model, and the reported structure-activity relationships (SARs) of PAADs and FAAs differ in significant ways. Recently, we documented that PAAD efficacy was associated with a hydrocarbon moiety at the C(2)-carbon, while in the FAAs, a substituted heteroatom one atom removed from the C(2)-center was optimal. Previously in this issue, we showed that PAAD activity was dependent upon the electronic properties of the 4′-N′-benzylamide substituent, while FAA activity was insensitive to electronic changes at this site. In this study, we prepared analogues of (R)-N′-benzyl 2-amino-3-methylbutanamide to identify the structural components for maximal anticonvulsant activity. We demonstrated that the SAR of PAADs and FAAs diverged at the terminal amide site and that PAADs had considerably more structural latitude in the types of units that could be incorporated at this position, suggesting that these compounds function according to different mechanism(s).

A new-type of oxidation-reduction condensation proceeded smoothly to afford carboxylic acid alkyl esters or alkyl phenyl ethers in good to high yields by combined use of alkoxydiphenylphosphines (1) having primary, bulky secondary or tertiary alkoxy groups, a mild quinone-type oxidant such as 2,6-dimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DMBQ) and carboxylic acids or phenols. Generally, alkoxydiphenylphosphines were prepared easily from chlorodiphenylphosphine (2) and alcohols in the presence of pyridine, and were isolated by distillation. On the other hand, the phosphines 1 were also prepared in situ from N,N-dimethylaminodiphenylphosphine (3a) and primary or secondary alcohols while primary, bulky secondary or tertiary alkoxydiphenylphosphines were alternatively formed in situ by adding 2 to the "BuLi-treated alcohols in order to perform the above reactions by a one-pot procedure from alcohols and nucleophiles. The reaction of thus formed 1, DMBQ and carboxylic acids or phenols afforded the corresponding alkylated products, including hindered secondary and tertiary alkylated ones, in good to high yields at room temperature. In the case of using chiral secondary alcohols, the corresponding carboxylic acid alkyl esters were obtained as well in high yields with perfect inversion of stereochemistry by SN2 replacement.
