Development of a Scalable Synthesis of a Pyridinyl-3-azabicyclononene, a Novel Nicotinic Partial Agonist
摘要:
The process research and development of two syntheses of a novel nicotinic partial agonist, TC-8817 ((+)-5), are described. The original Medicinal Chemistry route had multiple flaws, making it unsuitable for further development. A second approach was explored which was more amenable to optimization. The key steps were an intramolecular Lewis acid-promoted cyclization, a dibromination/elimination sequence to provide a vinyl bromide, and subsequent Suzuki coupling with 3-pyridineboronic acid. The overall yield of similar to 3-16% over nine steps was offset by the low cost of goods and ease of synthesis. A major drawback was the need for simulated moving bed chiral separation on the penultimate intermediate to afford the subsequently desired single enantiomer version. A third-generation, asymmetric variation afforded a key intermediate in good yield and enantiomeric purity, providing proof of concept for a more efficient production of the desired (+)-enantiomer.

Large combinatoriallibraries of N-substituted peptides would be an attractive source of protein ligands, because these compounds are known to be conformationally constrained, whereas standard peptides or peptoids are conformationally mobile. Here, we report an efficient submonomer solid-phase synthetic route to these compounds and demonstrate that it can be used to create high quality libraries. A model
N 取代肽的大型组合文库将是蛋白质配体的有吸引力的来源,因为已知这些化合物在构象上受到限制,而标准肽或类肽在构象上是可移动的。在这里,我们报告了这些化合物的有效亚单体固相合成路线,并证明它可用于创建高质量的库。模型筛选实验和命中分析表明立体中心提供的刚性对于高亲和力结合至关重要。
