Phosphodiesterase 2A (PDE2A) is highly expressed in distinct areas of the brain, which are known to be related to neuropsychiatric diseases. The development of suitable PDE2A tracers for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) would permit the in vivo imaging of the PDE2A and evaluation of disease-mediated alterations of its expression. A series of novel fluorinated PDE2A inhibitors on the basis of a Benzoimidazotriazine (BIT) scaffold was prepared leading to a prospective inhibitor for further development of a PDE2A PET imaging agent. BIT derivatives (BIT1–9) were obtained by a seven-step synthesis route, and their inhibitory potency towards PDE2A and selectivity over other PDEs were evaluated. BIT1 demonstrated much higher inhibition than other BIT derivatives (82.9% inhibition of PDE2A at 10 nM). BIT1 displayed an IC50 for PDE2A of 3.33 nM with 16-fold selectivity over PDE10A. This finding revealed that a derivative bearing both a 2-fluoro-pyridin-4-yl and 2-chloro-5-methoxy-phenyl unit at the 8- and 1-position, respectively, appeared to be the most potent inhibitor. In vitro studies of BIT1 using mouse liver microsomes (MLM) disclosed BIT1 as a suitable ligand for 18F-labeling. Nevertheless, future in vivo metabolism studies are required.

The potassium channel openers flupirtine and retigabine have proven to be valuable analgesics or antiepileptics. Their recent withdrawal due to occasional hepatotoxicity and tissue discoloration, respectively, leaves a therapeutic niche unfilled. Metabolic oxidation of both drugs gives rise to the formation of electrophilic quinones. These elusive, highly reactive metabolites may induce liver injury in the case of flupirtine and blue tissue discoloration after prolonged intake of retigabine. We examined which structural features can be altered to avoid the detrimental oxidation of the aromatic ring and shift oxidation toward the formation of more benign metabolites. Structure–activity relationship studies were performed to evaluate the KV7.2/3 channel opening activity of 45 derivatives. Sulfide analogues were identified that are devoid of the risk of quinone formation, but possess potent KV7.2/3 opening activity. For example, flupirtine analogue 3-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-N-(6-(isobutylthio)-2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)pyridin-3-yl)propanamide (48) has 100-fold enhanced activity (EC50=1.4 nm), a vastly improved toxicity/activity ratio, and the same efficacy as retigabine in vitro.

Dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-related kinase 1A (DYRK1A) is a dual-specificity protein kinase that catalyses phosphorylation and autophosphorylation. Higher DYRK1A expression correlates with cancer, in particular glioblastoma present within the brain. We report here the synthesis and biological evaluation of new heterocyclic diphenolic derivatives designed as novel DYRK1A inhibitors. The generation of these heterocycles such as benzimidazole, imidazole, naphthyridine, pyrazole-pyridines, bipyridine, and triazolopyrazines was made based on the structural modification of the lead DANDY and tested for their ability to inhibit DYRK1A. None of these derivatives showed significant DYRK1A inhibition but provide valuable knowledge around the importance of the 7-azaindole moiety. These data will be of use for developing further structure-activity relationship studies to improve the selective inhibition of DYRK1A.

Electrochemical fluorination of aromatic compounds in anhydrous HF

, p. 214 - 219 (2007/10/03)
Electrochemical fluorination of anisole furnished 2- and 4-fluoroanisoles in a 3:1 ratio, guaiacol, and 4,4′-dimethoxydiphenyl ether. Phenylacetonitrile alongside the fluorination in the ring suffered the transformation of the cyano group into a trifluoromethyl. 4-Bromobenzamide was fluorinated to a high conversion mostly in the ring to afford predominantly 4-bromo-3,3,6,6-tetrafluoro-1,4-cyclohexadienecarboxamide. 4-Bromonitrobenzene in a low yield gave 4-bromofluoronitrobenzene and 3,4-dibromofluoronitrobenzene. 3-Bromo-nitrobenzene and 1,4-dichlorobenzene did not undergo fluorination. In the course of the electrolysis of the 4-bromobenzamide and 4-bromonitrobenzene in anhydrous HF apart the fluorination occurred also the bromination of the substrates.

In search of simplicity and flexibility: A rational access to twelve fluoroindolecarboxylic acids

All twelve indolecarboxylic acids 1-12 carrying both a fluorine substituent and a carboxy group at the benzo ring have been prepared either directly from the corresponding fluoroindoles 13-16 or from the chlorinated derivatives 22, 23 and 25 by hydrogen/metal permutation ("metalation"), or from the bromo- or iodofluoroindoles 17-20 and 26, 27, 29 and 30 by halogen/metal permutation, the organometallic intermediate being each time trapped with carbon dioxide. In most, though not all cases, the nitrogen atom in the five-membered ring had to be protected by a trialkylsilyl group. Some of the bromo- or iodofluoroindoles (26 and 27) were successfully subjected to a basicity gradient-driven selective migration of the heavy halogen. An unexpected finding on the way to the target compounds were the rigorously site-selective metalation of the 5-fluoro-N-(trialkylsilyl)indole (14b; exclusive deprotonation of the 4-position). The fluoroindoles 13-16, although previously known, were accessed more conveniently from suitably substituted nitrobenzenes using the Bartoli or the Leimgruber-Batcho method. A new and very attractive indole synthesis was elaborated consisting of the ortho-lithiation of an N-acyl-protected aniline followed by ortho-formylation, Wittig chloromethylenation and base-catalyzed cyclization accompanied by dehydrochlorination. These five consecutive steps can be contracted to a convenient one-pot protocol. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2006.
