Potent, Selective Tetrahydro-β-carboline Antagonists of the Serotonin 2B (5HT2B) Contractile Receptor in the Rat Stomach Fundus
摘要:
A series of potent, selective 5HT(2B) receptor antagonists has been identified based upon yohimbine, with SAR studies resulting in a 1000-fold increase in 5HT(2B) receptor affinity relative to the starting structure (-log K(B)s > 10.0 have been obtained). These high-affinity tetrahydro-beta-carboline antagonists are able to discriminate among the 5HT(2) family of serotonin receptors, with members of the series showing selectivities of more than 100-fold versus both the 5HT(2A) and 5HT(2C) receptors based upon radioligand binding and functional assays. As the first compounds reported with such selectivity and enhanced receptor affinity, these tetrahydro-beta-carboline antagonists are useful tools for elucidating the role of serotonin acting at the 5HT(2B) receptor in normal and disease physiology.

The singleenantiomers of 2-naphthylalanine and N-tert-butoxycarbonyl 2-naphthylalanine were prepared from 2-naphthaldehyde. The sequence has been optimized and run on multikilogram scale, with the key step the asymmetrichydrogenation of methyl 2-acetamido-3-(2-naphthyl)propenoate using the rhodium complex of the methyl BoPhoz ligand, which proceeded smoothly at scale with 97.9% ee.

A direct oxidative C–H amination affording 1-acetyl indolecarboxylates starting from 2-acetamido-3-arylacrylates has been achieved. Indole-2-carboxylates can be targeted with a straightforward deacetylation of the initial reaction products. The C–H amination reaction is carried out using a catalytic Pd(II) source with oxygen as the terminal oxidant. The scope and application of this chemistry is demonstrated

synthesis, photophysics and photochemistry of a family of molecular switches inspired by the green fluorescent protein (GFP) chromophore is presented. These compounds can be synthesized in one step and good yields, their photophysical properties may be tuned by the substituents, solvent and wavelength of irradiation, and they show very efficient and fast photoisomerization. Furthermore, their high thermal

In this Letter, we report a convenient and efficient method for the synthesis of new simplifiedderivatives of hemiasterlin in which the α,α-dimethylbenzylic moiety A is replaced by α,β-unsaturated aryl groups as Michael acceptor. Most of these derivatives have a strong cytotoxic activity on three human tumor cell lines (KB, Hep-G2 and MCF7). Analogs 17b and 17f showed a high cytotoxicity against KB

In this paper, we describe the synthesis of a novel class of pseudo-peptides derived from isomannide and several oxazolones as potential inhibitors of serine proteases as well as preliminary pharmacological assays for hepatitis C. Hepatitis C, dengue and West Nile fever are among the most important flaviviruses that share one important serine protease enzyme. Serine proteases belong to the most studied class of proteolytic enzymes and are a primary target in the drug development field. Several pseudo-peptides were obtained in good yields from the reaction of isomannide and oxazolones, and their anti-HCV potential using the HCV replicon-based assay was shown.
