The adenosine A1 receptor (A1AR) is a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that provides important therapeutic opportunities for a number of conditions including congestive heart failure, tachycardia, and neuropathic pain. The development of A1AR-selective fluorescent ligands will enhance our understanding of the subcellular mechanisms underlying A1AR pharmacology facilitating the development of more efficacious and selective therapies. Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and application of a novel series of A1AR-selective fluorescent probes based on 8-functionalized bicyclo[2.2.2]octylxanthine and 3-functionalized 8-(adamant-1-yl) xanthine scaffolds. These fluorescent conjugates allowed quantification of kinetic and equilibrium ligand binding parameters using NanoBRET and visualization of specific receptor distribution patterns in living cells by confocal imaging and total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy. As such, the novel A1AR-selective fluorescent antagonists described herein can be applied in conjunction with a series of fluorescence-based techniques to foster understanding of A1AR molecular pharmacology and signaling in living cells.
PROCESS FOR THE CATALYTIC DIRECTED CLEAVAGE OF AMIDE-CONTAINING COMPOUNDS

Page/Page column 61; 62, (2017/04/11)
The present invention relates to a catalytic method for the conversion of amide-containing compouds by means of a build-in directing group and upon the action of a heteronucleophilic compound (in se an amine (RNH2 or RNHR') or an alcohol (ROH) or a thiol (RSH)) in the presence of a metal catalyst to respectively esters, thioesters, carbonates, thiocarbonates and to what is defined as amide-containing compounds (such as carboxamides, urea, carbamates, thiocarbamates). The present invention also relates to these amide-containing compounds having a build-in directing group (DG), as well as the use of such directing groups in the catalytic directed cleavage of N-DG amides with the use of heteronucleophiles (in se an amine (RNH2 or RNHR') or an alcohol (ROH) or thiol (RSH)).

CeO2 showed higher activity for the direct synthesis of 1,3-dibutylurea (DBU) from CO2 and n-butylamine than the metal oxides tested. The solvent largely influenced the reaction over CeO2, and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) was preferable among various solvents tested from the viewpoints of activity and selectivity. The catalyst system composed of CeO2 catalyst and NMP solvent (CeO2 in NMP) was applicable to the reactions of various amines such as linear primary alkylamines or branched primary alkylamines, although tert-butylamine afforded low conversion. In contrast, secondary amines and aniline provided no yield of the ureas. The combination of 2-cyanopyridine with CeO2 in NMP (CeO2 in NMP with 2-cyanopyridine) promoted the transformation of the unreactive amines, showing that tert-butylamine and aniline were converted to the corresponding ureas in 82% and 80% yields, respectively. These yields are much higher than those reported in the previous literatures, indicating that CeO2 in NMP with 2-cyanopyridine drastically promoted transformation of amines with low reactivity.
