antibiotics (cefaclor, penicillinG) and antihistamine (diphenhydramine), a smooth muscle relaxant (alverine), an anaesthetic (ketamine), an agrochemical instecticide (triflumuron), an antiparasitic (benznidazole) and an anticancer agent (tamibarotene). This investigation highlights the scope and limitations of incorporating cubane into bioactive molecule discovery, both in terms of synthetic compatibility

As infrared seeking technology evolves, threats are better able to distinguish defensive infrared (IR) flares from true targets. Spectrally matched flares, which generally employ carbon‐basedfuels, are better able to decoy some advanced missiles by more closely mimicking the IR emission of the target. Cubane is a high‐energy carbon‐based scaffold which may be suitable for use as a fuel in spectrally

Polycyclic amides 2 and 5-9 were successfully synthesised and their lipophilicity profiles were evaluated using reverse-phase HPLC. All synthesised compounds possessed P2X7R antagonistic properties when tested on rat spinal cord microglia cells. Extensive screening for binding to other neuroreceptor subtypes demonstrated their P2X7 selectivity.

Herein we describe our recent attempts to target the P2X7 receptor for potential treatment of neurological disorders. This work focusses on different polycycles including carborane, adamantane or cubane, joined by either a cyanoguanidine or an amide linker to phenyl or isoquinoline moieties. We have demonstrated the superiority of the adamantyl moiety over other polycycles in terms of synthetic accessibility and biological (cellular) activity. We have also shown that an amide or cyanoguanidine linker can greatly alter the biological activity of compounds. This SAR study provides important insights into the types of functionality required to target the P2X7 receptor. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Relative to other polycyclic frameworks (1-3), a carborane cage (4 and Cs center dot 5) exerts a significant biological effect as an inhibitor of the purinergic P2X(7) receptor (P2X(7)R) which allows one to target depression in vivo and thus demonstrate, for the first time, that a carborane has the capacity to modify CNS activity.[GRAPHICS]
