Aryl azoles with neuroprotective activity—Parallel synthesis and attempts at target identification
摘要:
A parallel synthesis of aryl azoles with neuroprotective activity is described. All compounds obtained were evaluated in an in vitro assay using a NMDA toxicity paradigm showing a neuroprotective activity between 15% and 40%. The potential biological target of the active compounds was investigated by extensive literature searches based around similar scaffolds with reported neuroprotective activity. The most interesting molecules active in the NMDA toxicity assay (3a and 2g) showed moderate but significant activity in the inhibition of the Site 2 Sodium Channel binding assay at 10 mu M. To confirm our hypothesis compounds 3a, c, f and 2g were tested in the Veratridine assay which is one of the excitotoxicity assays of revelance to NaV channels. The compounds tested showed an activity between 40% and 70%. The identification of neuroprotective small molecules and the identification of NaV channels as the potential site of action were the most important goals of this work. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

Palladium-catalyzed alkynylcarbonylation of aryliodides was accomplished by using Mo(CO)6 as a CO source. The reaction was conducted at room temperature with the use of tBu3P as a ligand, which was found to be essential for smooth carbonylation. One-pot construction of pyrazoles by usingaryliodides with electron-withdrawing groups was also accomplished under these reaction conditions in the presence

Abstract Aluminum chloridemediated reactions of N-alkylated tosylhydrazones and terminal alkynes are reported. The protocol is applied to a wide range of substrates, and demonstrates excellent functional group tolerance. A series of 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoles is prepared in good to high yields with complete regioselectivity. Aluminum chloridemediated reactions of N-alkylated tosylhydrazones and
consecutive tandem processes are described for the regioselective, two-step synthesis of 1,3,5-trisubstitutedpyrazoles from α-hydroxyketones. The first, a tandem MnO 2 -mediated oxidation/Ramirez olefination reaction, provides a facile route to β,β-dibromo-enones. These valuable 1,3-dicarbonyl synthons can then be converted into 1,3,5-trisubstitutedpyrazoles via a second tandem hydrazine condensation/Suzuki-Miyaura
