Oxaziridine-Mediated Intramolecular Amination of sp3-Hybridized C−H Bonds
摘要:
We describe a new oxaziridine-mediated approach to the amination of sp(3)-hybridized C-H bonds. In the presence of a copper(II) catalyst, N-sulfonyl oxaziridines participate in efficient intramolecular cyclization reactions to afford a variety of piperidine and tetrahydroisoquinoline structures. The aminal intermediates provide a convenient functional handle for further elaboration of these structures, demonstrating the utility of this new methodology for the rapid construction of structurally complex nitrogen-containing heterocycles.
A simple and convenient preparation of [1H-imidazol-4(5)-yl]methyl}triphenylphosphonium chloride (5) is described. The phosphonium salt 5 could be applied to the synthesis of 1-[1H-imidazol-4(5)-yl]-5-arylpentan- or 6-arylhexan-3-ones 4a-d exhibiting histamine H3-antagonistic activities via a 1,3-diazafulvene intermediate 6 generated from 5. Further, two-methylene-enlongated homolog 3 of imifuramine was efficiently synthesized, starting from Wittig olefination of aldehyde 24 using [(1-tritylimidazol-4-yl)methyl]triphenylphosphonium chloride 7.

Pharmacological suppression of leukotriene biosynthesis by inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is a strategy to intervene with inflammatory and allergic disorders. We recently presented 2-amino-5-hydroxy-1H-indoles as efficient 5-LO inhibitors in cell-based and cell-free assays. Structural optimization led to novel benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylates exemplified by ethyl 2-(3-chlorobenzyl)-5-hydroxy-1H-benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylate (compound 11a), which inhibits 5-LO activity in human neutrophils and recombinant human 5-LO with IC50 values of 0.23 and 0.086 mu M, respectively. Notably, 11a efficiently blocks 5-LO product formation in human whole blood assays (IC50 = 0.83-1.6 mu M) and significantly prevented leukotriene B-4 production in pleural exudates of carrageenan-treated rats, associated with reduced severity of pleurisy. Together, on the basis of their high potency against 5-LO and the marked efficacy in biological systems, these novel and straightforward benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylates may have potential as anti-inflammatory therapeutics.
