The present invention relates to 1-[1-(benzoyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile derivatives having pharmacological activity formula (I) to processes of preparation of such compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising them, and to their use in therapy and/or prophylaxis of a cognitive disorder.

Depigmenting activity and low cytotoxicity of alkoxy benzoates or alkoxy cinnamte in cultured melanocytes

To obtain effective and safe topical depigmenting agents, we synthesized hydroxybenzoates, alkoxybenzoates, and 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamate containing a thymol moiety and screened then for high-level inhibitory activity against melanin synthesis in cultured melanocytes. Eight compounds were tested for their depigmenting effect and cytotoxicity using a murine melanocyte cell line. We found that 3,4,5-trialkoxybenzoates and 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamate, synthesized by conjugating 3,4,5-trialkoxybenzoic acids and 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnmic acid with thymol, showed a potent depigmenting effect and low cytotoxicity. Compound 4h, 5-methyl-2-(methylethyl)phenyl (2E)-3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoate, showed the most potent depigmenting effect (IC50=10 μM) with low cytotoxicity (IC50=200 μM).

Biosynthesis. Part 24. Speculative Incorporation Experiments with 1-Benzylisoquinolines and a Logical Approach via C6-C2 and C6-C3 Precursors to the Biosynthesis of Hasubanonine and Protostephanine

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).
