Discovery and structure-activity relationship of novel 2,3- dihydrobenzofuran-7-carboxamide and 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3(2 h)-one-7-carboxamide derivatives as poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1 Inhibitors

Novel substituted 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-7-carboxamide (DHBF-7-carboxamide) and 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3(2H)-one-7-carboxamide (DHBF-3-one-7-carboxamide) derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1). A structure-based design strategy resulted in lead compound 3 (DHBF-7-carboxamide; IC50 = 9.45 μM). To facilitate synthetically feasible derivatives, an alternative core was designed, DHBF-3-one-7-carboxamide (36, IC50 = 16.2 μM). The electrophilic 2-position of this scaffold was accessible for extended modifications. Substituted benzylidene derivatives at the 2-position were found to be the most potent, with 3′,4′-dihydroxybenzylidene 58 (IC50 = 0.531 μM) showing a 30-fold improvement in potency. Various heterocycles attached at the 4′-hydroxyl/4′-amino of the benzylidene moiety resulted in significant improvement in inhibition of PARP-1 activity (e.g., compounds 66-68, 70, 72, and 73; IC50 values from 0.718 to 0.079 μM). Compound 66 showed selective cytotoxicity in BRCA2-deficient DT40 cells. Crystal structures of three inhibitors (compounds (-)-13c, 59, and 65) bound to a multidomain PARP-1 structure were obtained, providing insights into further development of these inhibitors.

Zatosetron, a Potent, Selective, and Long-Acting 5HT3 Receptor Antagonist: Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationships

Antagonists of 5HT3 receptors are clinically effective in treating nausea and emesis associated with certain oncolytic drugs, including cisplatin.Moreover, these agents may be useful in pharmacological management of several central nervous system disorders, including anxiety, schizophrenia, dementia, and substance abuse.Our studies on aroyltropanamides led to the discovery that dihydrobenzofuranyl esters and amides are potent 5HT3 receptor antagonists.Simple benzoyl derivatives of tropine and 3α-aminotropane possessed weak 5HT3 receptor antagonist activity, as judged by blockade of bradycardia produced by iv injection of serotonin (5HT) to anesthetized rats.Within this series, use of benzofuran-7-carboxamide as the aroyl moiety led to a substantial increase of 5HT3 receptor affinity.The optimal 5HT3 receptor antagonist identified via extensive SAR studies was endo-5-chloro-2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-N-(8-methyl-8-azabicyclooct-3-yl)-7-benzofurancarboxamide (Z)-2-butenedioate (zatosetron maleate).The 7-carbamyl regiochemistry, dimethyl substitution, chloro substituent, and endo stereochemistry were all crucial elements of the SAR.Zatosetron maleate was a potent antagonist of 5HT-induced bradycardia in rats (ED50=0.86 μg/kg iv).Low oral doses of zatosetron (30 μg/kg) produced long-lasting antagonism of 5HT3 receptors, as evidenced by blockade of 5HT-induced bradycardia for longer than 6 h in rats.Moreover, this compound did not produce hemodynamic effects after iv administration to rats, nor did it block carbamylcholine-induced bradycardia in doses that markedly blocked 5HT3 receptors.Thus, zatosetron is a potent, selective, orally effective 5HT3 receptor antagonist with a long duration of action in rats.

Mn(III)-based oxidative free-radical cyclizations of γ,γ-bis(allylic) acetoacetates

Oxidative free-radical cyclizations of γ,γ-(bis)allylic acetoacetates demonstrate that 1,1-disubstituted double bonds are much more reactive than mono- or chloroalkyl-substituted double bonds. The products isolated suggests that bicyclo[3.2.1]octanes 25, 31, 33 and 36 are formed from boat cyclohexyl radical 42 and tandem cyclization products 30, 37 and 38 are obtained from boat cyclohexyl radical 41.
