A series of new tetrahydroprotoberberine (THPB) derivatives were designed, synthesized, and tested for their binding affinity towards dopamine (D 1 and D2) and serotonin (5-HT1A and 5-HT 2A) receptors. Many of the THPB compounds exhibited high binding affinity and activity at the dopamine D1 receptor, as well as high selectivity for the D1 receptor over the D2, 5-HT 1A, and 5-HT2A receptors. Among these, compound 19c exhibited a promising D1 receptor binding affinity (Ki = 2.53 nM) and remarkable selectivity versus D2R (inhibition = 81.87%), 5-HT1AR (inhibition = 61.70%), and 5-HT2AR (inhibition = 24.96%). Compared with l-(S)-stepholidine (l-SPD) (D1 Ki = 6.23 nM, D2 Ki = 56.17 nM), compound 19c showed better binding affinity for the D1 receptor (2.5-fold higher) and excellent D2/D1 selectivity. Functional assays found compounds 18j, 18k, and 19c are pure D1 receptor antagonists. These results indicate that removing the C10 hydroxy group and introducing a methoxy group at C11 of the pharmacophore of l-SPD can reverse the function of THPB compounds at the D1 receptor. These results are in accord with molecular docking studies.

Many possible 1-benzyltetrahydroisoquinolines have been examined as possible advanced precursors of the alkaloids hasubanonine (1) and protostephanine (2) in Stephania japonica plants, but none was incorporated significantly.Administration of various precursor molecules having only one aromatic ring, such as tyrosine, has demonstrated that both alkaloids are derived from two different C6-C2 biogenetic units.The subsequent failure of further 1-benzyltetrahydroisoquinolines and bisphenethylamines to be incorporated suggested the intermediacy of either (a) modified 1-benzylisoquinolines or (b) trioxygenated C6-C2 building blocks.Precursors designed to examine the first possibility, such as 1-benzyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines or 1-benzyl-1-carboxytetrahydroisoquinolines, were not incorporated into (1) and (2) whereas two 3',4',5'-trioxygenated 2-phenylethylamines were incorporated.These findings allow further delineation of the requirements for later precursors of the alkaloids (1) and (2).
Catechol O methyltransferase. VI. Affinity labeling with N haloacetyl 3,5 dimethoxy 4 hydroxyphenylalkylamines

Several N acyl 4 hydroxy 3,5 dimethoxy phenylalkylamines were synthesized and evaluated for ability to inactivate catechol O methyltransferase (COMT). 4 Hydroxy N iodoacetyl 3,5 dimethoxy phenylethylamine was found to rapidly and irreversibly inactivate this enzyme. The corresponding n concentrations bromoacetyl derivative also produced inactivation of COMT but at a slower rate than the N iodoacetyl derivative. The N acetyl and N fumaryl derivatives were completely inactive. Inactivation of COMT by these reagents appears to proceed by a unimolecular reaction within a dissociable complex rather than by a nonspecific bimolecular reaction. The proximity of the amino acid residue being modified relative to the site which binds the aromatic portion of these inhibitors was determined using N iodoactylphenylalkylamines of varying chain length. The number of methylene carbons separating the aromatic ring and the iodoacetamide moiety in these inhibitors did not greatly influence the binding to COMT nor did it affect how rapidly the enzyme was inactivated. From these observations it is concluded that the amino acid moiety being modified by this class of affinity labeling reagents must be relatively close to or part of the site which binds the aromatic region of these inhibitors.
