2,3-Dihydro-dithiin and -dithiepine-1,1,4,4-tetroxides: small molecule non-peptide antagonists of the human galanin hGAL-1 receptor
摘要:
The neuropeptide galanin modulates several physiological functions such as cognition, learning, feeding behavior, and depression, probably via the galanin 1 receptor(GAL-R1). Using an HTS assay based on I-125-human galanin binding to the human galanin-l receptor (hGAL-R1), we discovered a series of 1,4-dithiin and dithiipine-1,1,4,4-tetroxides that exhibited binding affinity IC50's to hGAL-R1 ranging from 190 to 2700 nM. Two of the dithiepin analogues, 7 and 23, behaved pharmacologically as hGAL-R1 antagonists in secondary assays involving adenylate cyclase activity and GTP binding to G-proteins. Analogues 7 and 23 were also active in functional assays involving galanin, reversing the inhibitory effect of galanin on acetylcholine (ACh) release in rat brain hippocampal slices and electrically-stimulated guinea pig ileum twitch.

and ketones by β‐amino alcohol‐derived Schiffbase ligands with two stereogenic centers was investigated. Usingaqueoushydrogenperoxide as the oxidant and the Schiffbase 3b as a chiral ligand, a variety of 1,3‐dithianes derived from aldehydes were easily converted into the corresponding mono‐sulfoxides in good yields (81–88%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). Additionally, 99% ee
A facile method for deblocking of dithianes is described. Diacetoxyiodobenzene was used as a cheaper variant of bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodobenzene for the regeneration of carbonyl compounds from dithianes.
