SMALL MOLECULES THAT TARGET THE RNA THAT CAUSES ALS
-
Paragraph 00345-00347, (2022/04/03)
Disclosed herein are compounds that selectively bind an expanded transcribed repeat r(G4C2)exp, prevent sequestration of RNA-binding proteins, and inhibit translation of repeat associated non-ATG (RAN) translation responsible for generation of toxic dipeptide repeats underlying diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The compounds and their pharmaceutical compositions are useful in treating a disease or condition characterized by an expanded G4C2 repeat RNA (r(G4C2)exp), such as ALS and FTD.

About 75% of breast cancers are estrogen receptor alpha (ER-α) positive, and women typically initially respond well to antihormonal therapies such as tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors, but resistance often emerges. Fulvestrant is a steroid-based, selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) that both antagonizes and degrades ER-α and shows some activity in patients who have progressed on antihormonal agents. However, fulvestrant must be administered by intramuscular injections that limit its efficacy. We describe the optimization of ER-α degradation efficacy of a chromene series of ER modulators resulting in highly potent and efficacious SERDs such as 14n. When examined in a xenograft model of tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer, 14n (ER-α degradation efficacy = 91%) demonstrated robust activity, while, despite superior oral exposure, 15g (ER-α degradation efficacy = 82%) was essentially inactive. This result suggests that optimizing ER-α degradation efficacy in the MCF-7 cell line leads to compounds with robust effects in models of tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer derived from an MCF-7 background.

Oxidation of methylpiperidine derivatives with regard to chirality

When 2-(2-methyl-1-piperidinyl)ethanol derivatives 3a and 3b were dehydrogenated with Hg(II)-EDTA, an iminium function involving the tertiary a-carbon atom of the piperidine ring is formed regioselectively. Cyclization of these intermediates yielded diastereomeric mixtures of oxazolidines 7a and 7b, in solutions of which hydroxy-enamine species 8a/9a and 8b/9b, respectively, could be detected by NMR spectroscopy. A hydroxy-enamine derived from 7a could be trapped by cycloaddition to tetrazine 10. Protonation of the oxazolidines generated the iminium salts 6a/6b·X with loss of a chirality center. For prevention of different directions of ring dehydrogenation in the 2-(3-methyl-1-piperidinyl)ethanol compounds, the 6-position was blocked with two methyl groups. With amino alcohol 17, the isolation of one of the racemates in pure form was achieved, which by dehydrogenation produced a diastereoisomeric lactam mixture 18, as shown by NMR spectroscopy. Reaction of 2-(4-methyl-1-piperidinyl)ethanol 19 with Hg(II)-EDTA gave rise to a diastereomeric lactam mixture 21 in the ratio 60:40. From enantiomerically pure phenyloxiranes, the amino alcohols R(-)-19 and S(+)-19 became available. Their dehydrogenation under standardized conditions always showed a spreading range of isomeric lactams, which could not be separated.

Several hydroquinolyl alcohols and amines were electrochemically oxidized in methanol in the presence of sodium methoxide and potassium iodide to afford the corresponding intramolecular cyclization products. Furthermore, several amino malonates were electrochemically oxidized to yield the corresponding heterocyclic compounds through an intramolecular carbon-carbon bond formation in the presence of sodium cyanide in methanol.

6-Substituted 8,9-dimethoxy-2,3-methylenedioxy-6H-dibenzo[c,h][2,6] naphthyridin-5-ones were synthesized and evaluated for topoisomerase I-targeting activity and cytotoxicity. Several of these reversed lactam analogues of ARC-111 exhibited exceptional cyt

Alicyclic ester analogues of the gastroprokinetic benzamide metoclopramide (1) and its ester congener SDZ 205557 (2), a 5-HT4 receptor antagonist, were prepared by O-alkylation of 4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoate with N-(2-chloroethyl) substituted alicyclic amines. The bromo and iodo analogue of compound 13b (2-(1-piperidinyl)ethyl 4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoate) were obtained by halogenation of dechloro-13b with N-halogenated succinimides. The series was evaluated in functional in vitro assays with regard to affinity for serotoninergic 5-HT4, 5-HT3 and muscarinic M3 receptors. The affinities for 5-HT3 and M3 receptors were below 6.0 (pK(B) or pA2). On 5-HT4 receptors in guinea-pig ileal longitudinal muscle and rat oesophagus, the majority of compounds revealed partial 5-HT4 receptor agonism susceptible to blockade by SDZ 205557, a reference 5-HT4 receptor antagonist (pK(B) = 7.25-7.73 (guinea-pig ileum) and 7.09-7.43 (rat oesophagus)). The relative agonist potency was in the range of 5-303% (5-HT: 100%). Compound 13b and its bromo analogue 17 were the most potent esters of the series. The enantiomers of 13g ((R)- and (S)-2-(2-methyl-1-piperidinyl)ethyl 4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoate) interacted stereoselectively with 5-HT4 receptors and displayed enantiomeric potency ratios (R)/(S) of 4.3-8.7. There was an excellent correlation between (a) antagonist affinity on guinea-pig ileum and rat oesophagus, (b) relative agonist potency on guinea-pig ileum and rat oesophagus, and (c) between antagonist affinity and relative agonist potency within each assay (r2 > 0.91). The new compounds may serve as academic tools in evaluating the functional role of 5-HT4 receptors. The selective partial 5-HT4 receptor agonists presented in this paper may be useful to restore physiological motility and secretion in the gut with reduced or absent propensity to elicit tachycardia and desensitization of the intestinal target receptor.
