A series of phenylguanidines which bind to the C5a receptor has been developed. The lead compound 1 (IC50=30 mu M), discovered through random screening, has been modified to provide 32 (RPR121154) with submicromolar activity. This compound was shown to further elicit functional antagonism in a human neutrophil C5a stimulated respiratory burst assay. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.

A series of 5-[(7-chloro-4-quinolinyl)amino]-3-[(alkylamino)methyl] [1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ols and N omega-oxides was prepared from the substituted 1-phenyl-2-propanones proceeding through the 5-nitro[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ols, the corresponding amino, and acetamido derivatives to the N-[5-[(alkylamino)methyl]-6-hydroxy[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-yl]acetamides and final condensation with 4,7-dichloroquinoline or the N-oxide. In a quantitative structure-activity relationship study first run on 28 and later expanded to 40 substituted phenyl analogues and their N omega-oxides, increasing antimalarial potency vs. Plasmodium berghei in mice was found to be correlated with decreasing size (sigma MR) and electron donation (sigma sigma) of the phenyl ring substituents. A significant correlation with N omega-oxidation could not be demonstrated. Initial high activity against P. berghei infections in mice led to expanded studies that demonstrated in addition excellent activity against resistant strains of parasite, activity in primate models, and pharmacokinetic properties apparently allowing protection against infection for extended periods of time even after oral administration. Such properties encourage the clinical trial of a member of this class in man.

CuI-Mediated Sequential Iodination/Cycloetherification of <i>o</i>-Arylphenols: Synthesis of 2- or 4-Iododibenzofurans and Mechanistic Studies
An efficient synthesis of 2- or 4-iododibenzofurans through Cul-mediated sequential iodination/cycloetherification of two aromatic C-H bonds in o-arylphenols has been developed. Both the preexisting electron-withdrawing groups (NO2, CN, and CHO) and the newly introduced iodide are readily modified for a focused dibenzofuran library synthesis. Mechanistic studies and DFT calculations suggest that a Cu(III)-mediated rate-limiting C-H activation step is involved in cycloetherification.
Cu-Catalyzed Oxidative C(sp<sup>2</sup>)–H Cycloetherification of <i>o</i>-Arylphenols for the Preparation of Dibenzofurans
A new process involving copper-catalyzed aerobic C(sp(2))-H activation, followed by cycloetherification, has been developed. This reaction serves as a direct method for the preparation of multisubstituted dibenzofurans starting with o-arylphenols. The presence of a strong para-electron-withdrawing group (e.g., NO2) on the phenol is essential for the success of the reaction.
