A series of novel diaryl ether lactams have been identified as very potent dual inhibitors of protein farnesyltransferase (FTase) and protein geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase-I), enzymes involved in the prenylation of Ras. The structure of the complex formed between one of these compounds and FTase has been determined by X-ray crystallography. These compounds are the first reported to inhibit the prenylation of the important oncogene Ki-Ras4B in vivo. Unfortunately, doses sufficient to achieve this endpoint were rapidly lethal.

We report efficient syntheses of 2-bromo and 2-chloro-3-methoxycyclohex-2-enone and their use as m-hydroxyphenyl cation synthons for the α-arylation of lactams.The sequence has been used to synthesize the analgesic drug meptazinol.
Process for preparing hexahydroazepine, piperidine and pyrrolidine derivatives

, (2008/06/13)
2-Oxo-hexahydroazepine, -piperidine or pyrrolidines of formula STR1 wherein n is 2,3 or 4, R is hydrogen, lower alkyl, aryl(lower)alkyl, loweralkenylmethyl or cycloalkylmethyl, R1 is hydrogen or lower alkyl and R2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or aryl(lower)alkyl are prepared by a novel process involving reaction of an anion of a lactam of formula STR2 where R3 is lower alkyl, aryl(lower)alkyl, trialkyl-, triaryl- or triarylalkyl-silyl with a benzyne of formula STR3 where R4 is lower alkyl, aryl(lower)alkyl or trialkyl-, triaryl- or triarylalkyl-silyl. The products are useful as intermediates for preparing pharmacologically active 2-unsubstituted -hexahydroazepine, -piperidine and pyrrolidine derivatives.
