In order to discover green herbicides with novel molecular scaffolds, natural tetramic acids were used as lead compounds to design and synthesize four pyrrolidine-2,4-dione derivatives incorporating a chainlike alkoxyalkyl moiety (4a-4d) and nineteen pyrrolidine-2,4-dione derivatives incorporating a substituted phenoxyethyl moiety (10a-10s)viasubstitution, acylation, cyclization, and acidification reactions. The synthesized target compounds were confirmed by FT-IR,1H NMR,13C NMR and HRMS spectral analyses. The single-crystal structure of compound10awas analyzed by X-ray diffraction, which revealed that the 1-hydroxyethylidene group links the third position of the pyrrolidine heterocycle through a double bond with theZ-configuration. The herbicidal activity was evaluated using barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) and rape (Brassica campestris) as model plants by a Petri dish culture method. Most target compounds were found to possess moderate to good inhibitory activities against the plant growth at 100 μg mL?1. Among them, the compounds10qand10nshowed the highest herbicidal activities against the roots of barnyard grass and rape seedlings with the corresponding inhibition rates of 65.6% and 84.0%, respectively. This result indicated that pyrrolidine-2,4-dione derivatives incorporating a substituted phenoxyethyl moiety are worthy of further structural optimization.

Novel 1-(1-benzoylpiperidin-4-yl)methanamine derivatives with high affinity and selectivity for serotonin 5-HT1A receptors were obtained and tested in four functional assays: ERK1/2 phosphorylation, adenylyl cyclase inhibition, calcium mobilization, and β-arrestin recruitment. Compounds 44 and 56 (2-methylaminophenoxyethyl and 2-(1H-indol-4-yloxy)ethyl derivatives, respectively) were selected as biased agonists with highly differential "signaling fingerprints"that translated into distinct in vivo profiles. In vitro, 44 showed biased agonism for ERK1/2 phosphorylation and, in vivo, it preferentially exerted an antidepressant-like effect in the Porsolt forced swimming test in rats. In contrast, compound 56 exhibited a first-in-class profile: it preferentially and potently activated β-arrestin recruitment in vitro and potently elicited lower lip retraction in vivo, a component of "serotonergic syndrome". Both compounds showed promising developability properties. The presented 5-HT1A receptor-biased agonists, preferentially targeting various signaling pathways, have the potential to become drug candidates for distinct central nervous system pathologies and possessing accentuated therapeutic activity and reduced side effects.

A series of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine carboxamides (IPAs) bearing an N-(2-phenoxyethyl) moiety was designed and synthesized as new antitubercular agents. Seven 2,6-dimethyl IPAs demonstrated excellent in vitro activity (MIC: 0.025-0.054 μg/mL) against the drug susceptive H37Rv strain and two clinically isolated multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosisstrains. Compound 10j displayed acceptable safety and pharmacokinetic properties, opening a new direction for further development.

We report the synthesis of new compounds 4-35 based on two different openings (A and B) of the chromane ring present in the previously identified 5-HT1A receptor (5-HT1AR) ligand 3. The synthesized compounds were assessed for binding affinity, selectivity, and functional activity at the 5-HT1AR. Selected candidates resulting from B opening were also evaluated for their potential antinociceptive effect in vivo and pharmacokinetic properties in vitro. Analogue 19 [2-(4-{[2-(2-ethoxyphenoxy) ethyl]amino}butyl)tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-c]imidazole-1,3(2H)-dione] has been characterized as a high-affinity and potent 5-HT1AR agonist (K i = 2.3 nM; EC50 = 19 nM). Pharmacokinetic studies indicated that compound 19 displays a good metabolic stability in human liver microsomes (t1/2 ~ 3 h and CLint = 3.5 mL/min/kg, at 5 μM), and a low level of protein binding (25%, at 5 μM). Interestingly, 19 (3 mg/kg, ip, and 30 mg/kg, po) caused significant attenuation of formalin-induced behavior in early and late phases of the mouse intradermal formalin test of pain, and this in vivo effect was reversed by the selective 5-HT1AR antagonist WAY-100635. Thus, the new 5-HT1AR agonist identified in this work, 19, exhibits oral analgesic activity, and the results herein represent a step toward identifying new therapeutics for the control of pain.

A series of phenoxyalkyl and phenylthioalkyl amides were prepared as melatoninergic ligands. Modulation of affinity of the newly synthesized compound by applying SARs around the terminal amide moiety, the alkyl chain, and the methoxy group on the aromatic ring provides compounds with nanomolar affinity for both melatonin receptor subtypes. Affinity towards MT1 and MT2 receptors were modulated also exploiting chirality. The investigation of intrinsic activity revealed that all the tested compounds behave as full or partial agonists.

Starting from compounds previously identified as α1-adrenoceptor antagonists that were also found to bind to the 5-HT1A receptor, in an attempt to separate the two activities, a new series of 5-HT1A receptor agonists was identified and shown to have high potency and/or high selectivity. Of these, compound 13, which combines high selectivity (5-HT1A/α1 = 151) and good agonist potency (pD2 = 7.82; Emax = 76), was found to be the most interesting.
