n-rearrangement (n = 3, 5, 7, 9) of allylic alcohols. In some cases, the rearrangement reactions joined isolated C–C double or triple bonds to generate conjugated polyene or enyne structure motifs. We used the 1,3-rearrangement reaction of an allylic alcohol in hot water as part of an attractive new strategy for construction of the polyene naturalproduct navenone B by iterative use of a Grignard reaction

The invention provides novel arylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexylamines, and related processes and intermediates for preparing these compounds, as well as compositions and methods employing these compounds for the treatment and/or prevention of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, including but not limited to depression and anxiety.
Described herein is a palladium-catalyzed borylative cyclization and cyclopropanation of terminal alkyne-derived enynes, affording borylated bicycles, fused cycles, and bridged cycles in good isolated yields. The synthetic utility of this protocol was fully demonstrated by large scale reaction and synthetic derivatization of the borate group.

An efficient and simple catalytic method for the isomerization of readily prepared allylic alcohols is described. We focus particularly on cyclic examples and the synthesis of unusual enyne and dienols. The benzoic acid catalysts employed are commercially available and very inexpensive and can be tuned for reactivity and substrate sensitivity.

Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) is a cyclic, nonadecapeptide expressed in the CNS of all vertebrates that regulates feeding behavior and energy homeostasis via interaction with the central melanocortin system. Regulation of this interaction results in modulation of food intake and body weight gain, demonstrating significant therapeutic potential for the treatment of obesity. The MCH-1 receptor (MCH-R1) has been identified as a key target in MCH regulation, as small molecule antagonists of MCH-R1 have demonstrated activity in vivo. Herein, we document our research in a bicyclo[3.1.0]hexyl urea series with particular emphasis on structure-activity relationships and optimization of receptor occupancy, measured both in vitro and via an ex vivo binding assay following an oral dosing regimen. Several compounds have been tested in vivo and exhibit oral efficacy in relevant acute rodent feeding models. In particular, 24u has proven efficacious in chronic rodent models of obesity, showing a statistically significant reduction in food intake and body weight over a 28 day study.
