Discovery of the α7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Agonists. (R)-3‘-(5-Chlorothiophen-2-yl)spiro-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-3,5‘-[1‘,3‘]oxazolidin-2‘-one as a Novel, Potent, Selective, and Orally Bioavailable Ligand
摘要:
Recent advances in molecular biology suggest that neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors play important roles in the central nervous system (CNS). Of these receptors, the 0 group has recently attracted interest for its CNS-related actions and is looked to as a potential new class of pharmacological targets for cognition, schizophrenia, sensory gating, and anxiety. In the course of a research program aimed at the discovery of alpha 7 receptor agonists with high affinity, subtype selectivity, and good pharmacokinetic profile, we discovered (R)-3'(5-chlorothiophen-2-yl)spiro-l-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-3,5'-[1',3'loxazolidin-2'-one (25). Compound 25 has potent binding affinity (K-i = 9 nmol/L) and good selectivity toward the other nicotinic subtypes (alpha A beta 2 and a1 beta 2 gamma delta) and has been found in pharmacokinetic evaluation to have good oral bioavailability and brain permeability.
A Chiral Synthesis of (−)-Spiro[1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-3,5‘- oxazolidin-2‘-one]: A Conformationally Restricted Analogue of Acetylcholine That Is a Potent and Selective α7 Nicotinic Receptor Agonist
摘要:
A direct, short chiral synthesis of the selective 0 nicotinic receptor agonist (-)-spiro[l-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-3,5'-oxazolidin-2'-one] (AR-R17779) is presented. The key step utilized attack of the dianion of the (R)-HYTRA ester [(R)-(+)-2-hydroxy-1,2,2-triphenylethyl acetate] on quinuclidin-3-one, followed by a selective precipitation of the diasteriomeric tertiary alcohol that led to (S)-(-)-AR-R17779 in two additional steps.
