Substituted nitrated catechols, their use in the treatment of some central and peripheral nervous system disorders and pharmaceutical compositions containing them
Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of a Novel Series of “Ortho-Nitrated” Inhibitors of Catechol-O-methyltransferase
摘要:
Novel regioisomeric "ortho-nitrated" catechols related to the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitors BIA 3-202 3 and BIA 3-335 4 were synthesized and biologically evaluated. Changing the position of the nitro group from the "classical" meta- to the ortho-position relative to the side-chain substituent of the nitrocatechol pharmacophore exerted profound effects on selectivity and duration of COMT inhibition. Alkylaryl compounds 7a-d possessed shorter duration of action than their regioisomers, but 7b displayed reversed selectivity over 3 at 3 and 6 h, exhibiting preferential central inhibition. In the amino-substituted series, ortho-nitrated regioisomer 14k was less peripherally selective than 4 and short-acting, whereas decahydroquinoline 14g displayed an unprecedented combination of long-acting and selective peripheral inhibition. 7b could provide a useful tool to probe the pharmacological utility of short-acting, centrally selective COMT inhibitors in the treatment of depression in Parkinsonian patients, and 14g represents a promising candidate for clinical evaluation as an adjunct to L-Dopa therapy.
A method for the regioselective ortho-directed nitration of phenolic compounds useful for the preparation of ortho-nitro-phenols according to formula (I) is described.
