Synthesis and histamine H2 agonistic activity of arpromidine analogues: replacement of the pheniramine-like moiety by non-heterocyclic groups
摘要:
Analogues of the potent histamine H-2 agonist arpromidine, characterized by non-heterocyclic groups (phenyl, cyclo-hexyl, alkyl) instead of the pheniramine-like portion, were prepared and tested for their H-2 agonistic and H-1 antagonistic activity in the isolated guinea pig right atrium and ileum, respectively. In the diphenylpropylguanidine series an increase in H-2 agonistic potency resulted from mono- or difluorination at one or both phenyl rings in the meta and/or para position (pD2 less-than-or-equal-to 7.75 vs pD2 = 7.15 for the unsubstituted parent compound). Compounds chlorinated at both phenyl rings were considerably less potent. Highest combined H-2 agonistic/H-1 antagonistic potency was found in the 4-fluorophenyl series. The arpromidine analogue with cyclohexyl and methyl group instead of phenyl and pyridine ring proved to be 30 times more potent than histamine in the atrium. The H-1 antagonistic potency in cyclohexyl compounds was lower than in the diaryl series. Thus, aromatic rings appear not to be required for high H-2 agonistic potency but are useful for combined H-2 agonistic/H-1 antagonistic activity.

Selective cleavage of an inert C-C bond followed by C-O/N bond formation through a long-distance aryl migrationfrom a carbon to a nitrogen center via Ag catalysis is reported. The migration products were easily converted into γ-hydroxy amines and tetrahydroquinoline derivatives in quantitative yields. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicated a radical pathway.

Synthesis and Brain Regional Distribution of [11C]NPS 1506 in Mice and Rat: an N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) Receptor Antagonist
NPS 1506 [3-fluoro-γ-(3-fluorophenyl)-N-methylbenzenepropamine] is representative of a non-psychotomimetic class of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists. [11C]NPS 1506 was prepared at high radiochemical purity (>98%) with a specific activity of around 50 GBq/μmol at the end of synthesis by methylation of the desmethyl precursor with [11C]methyl iodide in the presence of NaH. Biodistribution of [11C]NPS 1506 in mice and rat demonstrated that uptake into the brain was rapid and occurred at high levels. [11C]NPS 1506 showed no appreciable specific binding in rodent brains under in vivo conditions, possibly because of both a large non-specific bound fraction and low in vitro binding affinity for NMDA receptors.

The present invention features compounds active at both the serotonin reuptake site and the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor and the use of such compounds for treating different disorders. Compounds having activity at the serotonin reuptake site and the NMDA receptor ("multi-active compounds") can be used to treat different types of disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorders (OCD), sleep disorders, sexual dysfunction, and eating disorders.
