Pd-Catalyzed Direct C–H Bond Functionalization of Spirocyclic σ1 Ligands: Generation of a Pharmacophore Model and Analysis of the Reverse Binding Mode by Docking into a 3D Homology Model of the σ1 Receptor
摘要:
To explore the hydrophobic binding region of the sigma(1) receptor protein, regioisomeric spirocyclic thiophenes 9-11 were developed as versatile building blocks. Regioselective alpha- and beta-arylation using the catalyst systems PdCl2/bipy/Ag2CO3 and PdCl2/P[OCH(CF3)(2)](3)/Ag2CO3 allowed the introduction of various aryl moieties at different positions in the last step of the synthesis. The increasing sigma(1) affinity in the order 4 < 5/6 < 7/8 indicates that the positions of the additional aryl moiety and the S atom in the spirocyclic thiophene systems control the sigma(1) affinity. The main features of the pharmacophore model developed for this class of sigma(1) ligands are a positive ionizable group, a H-bond acceptor group, two hydrophobic moieties, and one hydrophobic aromatic group. Docking of the ligands into a sigma(1) 3D homology model via molecular mechanics/Poisson-Boltzmann surface area calculations led to a very good correlation between the experimentally determined and estimated free energy of receptor binding. These calculations support the hypothesis of a reverse binding mode of ligands bearing the aryl moiety at the "top" (compounds 2, 3, 7, and 8) and "left" (compounds 4, 5, and 6) positions, respectively.
of the synthesis. A selective α-arylation of the thiophene moiety was performed with the catalytic system PdCl2/2,2′-bipyridyl/Ag2CO3, whereas the β-position of the thiophene ring was addressed by using the alternative catalytic system PdCl2/P[OCH(CF3)2]3/Ag2CO3. Due to electronic and steric reasons the arylation of the five-membered lactone 18 occurred in both α-positions providing 4′-mono-, 6′-mono-

nM; 4a: Ki = 1.0 nM). This result indicates that an aryl moiety in position 1 is well tolerated by the σ1receptor protein. The substitution pattern of the additional phenyl moiety has only weak effects on the σ1 affinity. Even ligands 3f and 4h with extended naphthyl residue show high σ1 affinity. However, decrease of σ1 affinity by extension of the π-system to a biphenylyl substituent (4j: Ki = 30
