Triazole ureas constitute a versatile class of irreversible inhibitors that target serine hydrolases in both cells and animal models. We have previously reported that triazole ureas can act as selective and CNS-active inhibitors for diacylglycerol lipases (DAGLs), enzymes responsible for the biosynthesis of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) that activates cannabinoid CB1 receptor. Here, we report the enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis and structure-activity relationship studies. We found that 2,4-substituted triazole ureas with a biphenylmethanol group provided the most optimal scaffold. Introduction of a chiral ether substituent on the 5-position of the piperidine ring provided ultrapotent inhibitor 38 (DH376) with picomolar activity. Compound 38 temporarily reduces fasting-induced refeeding of mice, thereby emulating the effect of cannabinoid CB1-receptor inverse agonists. This was mirrored by 39 (DO34) but also by the negative control compound 40 (DO53) (which does not inhibit DAGL), which indicates the triazole ureas may affect the energy balance in mice through multiple molecular targets.

A convenient method for synthesis of 2R,3S and 2S,3S N-Boc phenylalanine epoxides using readily available allylamine is described. Previous methods employed multistep synthetic routes from l-phenyl alanine that include use of m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) and a chromatographic method for purification of the desired diastereomers. Column purification could be eliminated by bringing in much improvement in the existing process. The process was further enhanced by replacing m-CPBA with oxone, an ecofriendly reagent advantageous for commercial application. The overall green process discussed involves the recovery and recycling of enantiomers of chiral allyl amines and judicial separation of diastereomers of the epoxides using simple economical methods.

A new access to enantiopure (Z)-ethylenic pseudopeptides, starting from the chiral pool of amino acids and enantiopure 2-substituted-but-3-enoic acids is proposed and illustrated by the syntheses of the (Z)-ethylenic pseudopeptidic analogs of L-Phe-L-Phe, L-Phe-D-Phe, L-Phe-L-Val, L-Phe-D-Val and racemic (LL,DD) and (LD,DL) (phenyl)Gly-Phe. The key-steps of these syntheses are a ring-closing metathesis, catalysed by Grubbs' ruthenium alkykidene complexes, on diethylenic amides and the hydrolytic cleavage of the resulting dihydropyridones under mild conditions through intermediate formation of cyclic imidates.

Chiral t-Boc protected propargylic amines have been obtained starting from aminoaldehydes derived from natural aminoacids. Stannylcupration of these substrates affords an easy regio- and stereocontrolled route to the corresponding γ-stannylated (E)-allylamines which are useful intermediates for the synthesis of the corresponding γ-functionalized allylic systems.
