Discovery of pyrimidine carboxamides as potent and selective CCK1 receptor agonists
摘要:
A series of six-membered heterocycle carboxamides were synthesized and evaluated as cholecystokinin 1 receptor (CCK1R) agonists. A pyrimidine core proved to be the best heterocycle, and SAR studies resulted in the discovery of analog 5, a potent and structurally diverse CCK1R agonist. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

The palladium-catalyzed regioselective alpha-monoarylation of deoxybenzoins and alpha,alpha-diarylation of acetophenones provides general, efficient access to 1,2,2-triarylethanones. After a comprehensive search for suitable experimental conditions to optimize such transformations, both reactions are alternatively conducted by means of either commercially available polymer-anchored catalysts or a very simple homogeneous catalytic system, thus avoiding the use of complex ligands. In addition, the synthesis of deoxybenzoins employing polymer-supported fibrous palladium catalysts is reported for the first time, and the excellent catalyst recycling properties suggest applicability to industrial purposes.
