Synthesis and antiaggregator activity of some new derivatives of 4H-1-benzopyran-4-one
摘要:
A series of 2-[2-alkyl-1H-benzimidazol-5(6)-yl]-4H-1 analogues 7a-7e was synthesized by the reaction with 3',4'-diaminoflavone and aliphatic carboxylic acids. 3',4'-Diaminoflavone 6 was prepared via the reduction of 2-(4-amino-3-nitrophenyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one 5a. The compounds 7a-e and 14a-f were tested in vitro for their inhibitory activities against human platelet aggregation induced by collagen, ADP and A23187. The compound with a COOR group as a side chain, 2-(2-alkyloxycarbonyl-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-yl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one 14a-f, has potent activity, and so compound 13 was also prepared as an analogue of series 14 and tested for its antiaggregator activity.
Synthesis, Structure–Activity Relationship, and Pharmacological Studies of Novel Melanin-Concentrating Hormone Receptor 1 Antagonists 3-Aminomethylquinolines: Reducing Human Ether-a-go-go-Related Gene (hERG) Associated Liabilities
摘要:
Recently, we discovered 3-aminomethylquinoline derivative 1, a selective, highly potent, centrally acting, and orally bioavailable human MCH receptor 1 (hMCHR1) antagonist, that inhibited food intake in F344 rats with diet-induced obesity (DIO). Subsequent investigation of 1 was discontinued because 1 showed potent hERG K+ channel inhibition in a patch-clamp study. To decrease hERG K+ channel inhibition, experiments with ligand-based drug designs based on 1 and a docking study were conducted. Replacement of the terminal p-fluorophenyl group with a cyclopropylmethoxy group, methyl group introduction on the benzylic carbon at the 3-position of the quinoline core, and employment of a [2-(acetylamino)ethyl]amino group as the amine portion eliminated hERG K+ channel inhibitory activity in a patch-clamp study, leading to the discovery of N-{3-[(1R)-1-{[2-(acetylamino)ethyl]amino}ethyl]-8-methylquinolin-7-yl}-4-(cyclopropylmethoxy)benzamide (R)-10h. The compound (R)-10h showed potent inhibitory activity against hMCHR1 and dose-dependently suppressed food intake in a 2-day study on DIO-F344 rats. Furthermore, practical chiral synthesis of (R)-10h was performed to determine the molecule's absolute configuration.
