Herein, we report the development of bitopic ligands aimed at targeting the orthosteric binding site (OBS) and a metastable binding site (MBS) within the same receptor unit. Previous molecular dynamics studies on ligand binding to the β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR) suggested that ligands pause at transient, less-conserved MBSs. We envisioned that MBSs can be regarded as allosteric binding sites and targeted by homobivalent bitopic ligands linking two identical pharmacophores. Such ligands were designed based on docking of the antagonist (S)-alprenolol into the OBS and an MBS and synthesized. Pharmacological characterization revealed ligands with similar potency and affinity, slightly increased β2/β1AR-selectivity, and/or substantially slower β2AR off-rates compared to (S)-alprenolol. Truncated bitopic ligands suggested the major contribution of the metastable pharmacophore to be a hydrophobic interaction with the β2AR, while the linkers alone decreased the potency of the orthosteric fragment. Altogether, the study underlines the potential of targeting MBSs for improving the pharmacological profiles of ligands.

S-Alkyl-N-alkylisothiourea compounds containing various cyclic amines were synthesized in the search for novel nonimidazole histamine H3 receptor (H3R) antagonists. Among them, four N-alkyl S-[3-(piperidin-1-yl)propyl]isothioureas 18, 19, 22, and 23 were found to exhibit potent and selective H3R antagonistic activities against in vitro human H3R, but were inactive against in vitro human H 4R. Furthermore, three alkyl homologs 18-20 showed inactivity for histamine release in in vivo rat brain microdialysis, suggesting differences in antagonist affinities between species. In addition, in silico docking studies of N-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)butyl]-S-[3-piperidin-1-yl)propyl]isothiourea 19 and a shorter homolog 17 with human/rat H3Rs revealed that structural differences between the antagonist-docking cavities of rat and human H 3Rs were likely caused by the Ala122/Val122 mutation.

Phosphonium lipocations were synthesized and evaluated for inhibition of the development of Plasmodium falciparum and Trypanosoma cruzi, etiological agents of malaria and Chagas disease, respectively. Optimal phthalimides and 1,4-naphthoquinone-based lipocations were active in vitro at mid-high nM concentrations against P. falciparum and low μM concentrations against T. cruzi.
Convenient route to primary (Z)-allyl amines and homologs

experimental part, p. 29 - 47 (2009/04/06)
A convenient two-step procedure for the synthesis of primary (Z)-allyl amines, (Z)-homoallyl amines [(Z)-but-3-enylamines], and (Z)-pent-4-enylamines using the Wittig reaction was achieved. The use of nonstabilized ylides from triphenylphosphonium salt, potassium salt, and apolar solvent produced (Z/E)-geometric isomer ratios generally greater than 1.6. The amine moiety was masked using a phtalimide group that was removed successfully in the last step of the process in two different conditions, NH2NH2/EtOH/rt or CH3NH2/EtOH/rt. However, in some cases, reduction of the C = C double bond in the deprotection with hydrazine was concomitantly observed. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

Novel H3 receptor antagonists. Sulfonamide homologs of histamine.

, p. 2157 - 2162 (2007/10/03)
Sulfonamides derived from 4(5)-(omega-aminoalkyl)-1H-imidazoles containing chain lengths of three- to five-carbons were synthesized. Good to moderate H3 receptor binding affinities were observed for several butyl and pentyl homologs, whereas binding affinities were considerably weaker in the propyl series. Separation of the imidazole ring and the sulfonamide unit by a four- or five-carbon tether afforded potent H3 receptor antagonists.

Treatment of the amido esters 9 and 17 with PPSE (polyphosphoric acid trimethylsilyl ester) followed by NaBH4 in ethanol gave the quinolizidinones 11-14 and 19 via a vinylogous Bischler-Napieralski nitrilium ion cyclization-reductive lactamization two-step process.Subsequent ozonolysis and reduction afforded chiral hydroxylated quinolizidines in moderate to good yield.In contrast to five-membered-ring formation, six-membered-ring formation via nitrilium-ion cyclization requires a p-methoxy-substituted styryl terminator.The effect para-substituted styryl terminators have on the energy of activation and ΔH for the cyclization process has been calculated by semiempirical and ab initio methods.
Synthesis and antitumor properties of some isoindolylalkylphosphonium salts

Antitumor evaluation of 2-(1,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-2H-isoindol-2-yl) ethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (1) revealed significant activity in P-388 lymphocytic leukemia (T/C = 160%). As a follow-up to this chemical lead, a series of closely related phosphonium salts was prepared in which the 1,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-2H-isoindole ring system was maintained or in which it was replaced by other moieties such as maleimido, bromo, methoxy, and isoindoline. Syntheses generally involved treatment of the appropriate N-(bromoalkyl)phthalimide with the required phosphine or condensation of the K salt of the substituted imide with β-(bromoethyl) triphenylphosphonium bromide. From the biological data obtained for these compounds, several requirements can be defined for substantial antileukemic activity. Of utmost importance is the presence of a triarylphosphonium halide moiety, coupled to an alkyl chain of two or three carbon atoms. The preferred terminus of the alkyl chain is the 1,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-2H-isoindole ring system, although the observed activity of β-(bromoethyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (T/C = 127%) would suggest that a superior carrier molecule could be developed.
