We previously reported diarylurea derivatives as cannabinoid type-1 receptor (CB1) allosteric modulators, which were effective in attenuating cocaine-seeking behavior. Herein, we extended the structure-activity relationships of PSNCBAM-1 (2) at the central phenyl ring directly connected to the urea moiety. Replacement with a thiophene ring led to 11 with improved or comparable potencies in calcium mobilization, [35S]GTPγS binding, and cAMP assays, whereas substitution with nonaromatic rings led to significant attenuation of the modulatory activity. These compounds had no inverse agonism in [35S]GTPγS binding, a characteristic that is often thought to contribute to adverse psychiatric effects. While 11 had good metabolic stability in rat liver microsomes, it showed modest solubility and blood-brain barrier permeability. Compound 11 showed an insignificant attenuation of cocaine seeking behavior in rats, most likely due to its limited CNS penetration, suggesting that pharmacokinetics and distribution play a role in translating the in vitro efficacy to in vivo behavior.

The rhodium-catalyzed transannulation reaction between 1,2,3-thiadiazoles and alkynes, proceeding via intermediacy of the previously unknown Rh thiavinyl carbene, toward a highly efficient and regioselective synthesis of up to fully substituted thiophenes is described.

The present invention pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds. More specifically the present invention pertains to certain amido-thiophene compounds that, inter alia, inhibit 11 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11 β-HSD1 ). The present invention also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, both in vitro and in vivo, to inhibit 11 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1; to treat disorders that are ameliorated by the inhibition of 11 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1; to treat the metabolic syndrome, which includes disorders such as type 2 diabetes and obesity, and associated disorders including insulin resistance, hypertension, lipid disorders and cardiovascular disorders such as ischaemic (coronary) heart disease; to treat CNS disorders such as mild cognitive impairment and early dementia, including Alzheimer's disease; etc.

5-(Phenylthiophene)-3-carboxylic acid (2a), a metabolite of esonarimod (1), which was developed as a new antirheumatic drug, was considered as a lead compound for new antirheumatic drugs. A new series of 2a derivatives were synthesized and their characteristic pharmacological effects, that is their antagonistic effect toward interleukin (IL)-1 in mice and the suppressive effect against adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA) in rats, were evaluated and compared with those of 1. The structure-activity relationships indicated that [5-(4-bromophenyl)-thiophen-3-yl]acetic acid (5d), methyl [5-(4-chlorophenyl)-thiophen-3-yl]acetate (5h), and methyl [5-(4-bromophenyl)-thiophen-3-yl]acetate (5i) suppressed AIA more potently than 1 and all of the other synthesized compounds.
