A concise and efficient synthesis of the proposed structure of aaptoline A, a 7,8-dihy-droxyquinoline derived from a marine sponge, was accomplished in seven steps with a 52% overall yield. A key feature of the synthesis is the high-yielding Ag(I)-catalyz

3-Dehydroquinase, the third enzyme in the shikimate pathway, is a potential target for drugs against tuberculosis. Whilst a number of potent inhibitors of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis enzyme based on a 3-dehydroquinate core have been identified, they generally show little or no in vivo activity, and were synthetically complex to prepare. This report describes studies to develop tractable and drug-like aromatic analogues of the most potent inhibitors. A range of carbon-carbon linked biaryl analogues were prepared to investigate the effect of hydrogen bond acceptor and donor patterns on inhibition. These exhibited inhibitory activity in the high-micromolar range. The addition of flexible linkers in the compounds led to the identification of more potent 3-nitrobenzylgallate- and 5-aminoiso-phthalate-based analogues.

Novel nitrocatechol-substituted heterocycles were designed and evaluated for their ability to inhibit catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT). Replacement of the pyrazole core of the initial hit 4 with a 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring resulted in a series of compounds endowed with longer duration of COMT inhibition. Incorporation of a pyridine N-oxide residue at position 3 of the 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring led to analogue 37f, which was found to possess activity comparable to entacapone and lower toxicity in comparison to tolcapone. Lead structure 37f was systematically modified in order to improve selectivity and duration of COMT inhibition as well as to minimize toxicity. Oxadiazole 37d (2,5-dichloro-3-(5-(3,4-dihydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-4, 6-dimethylpyridine 1-oxide (BIA 9-1067)) was identified as a long-acting, purely peripheral inhibitor, which is currently under clinical evaluation as an adjunct to l-Dopa therapy of Parkinson's disease.
