Fused Piperidines as a Novel Class of Potent and Orally Available Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin Type 8 (TRPM8) Antagonists
摘要:
The transient receptor potential melastatin type 8 (TRPM8) is a nonselective cation channel primarily expressed in a subpopulation of sensory neurons that can be activated by a wide range of stimuli, including menthol, icilin, and cold temperatures (< 25 degrees C). Antagonism of TRPM8 is currently under investigation as a new approach for the treatment of pain. As a result of our screening efforts, we identified tetrahydrothienopyridine 4 as an inhibitor of icilin-induced calcium influx in CHO cells expressing recombinant rat TRPM8. Exploration of the structure-activity relationships of 4 led to the identification of a potent and orally bioavailable TRPM8 antagonist, tetrahydroisoquinoline 87. Compound 87 demonstrated target coverage in vivo after oral administration in a rat pharmacodynamic model measuring the prevention of icilin-induced wet-dog shakes (WDS).
An Efficient and Convenient Synthesis of 4,5,6,7-Tetrahydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridines by a Modified Pictet-Spengler Reaction via a Formyliminium Ion Intermediate
摘要:
A synthesis of N-formyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridines (5) was achieved in a highly efficient manner via trifluoroacetic acid catalyzed cyclization of formyliminium ion (4), which was produced by imination of 2-(2-thienyl)ethylamine (1) and a carbonyl compound (2) using titanium(IV) tetraisopropoxide followed by formylation with acetic-formic anhydride in a one-pot procedure. This modified Pictet-Spengler reaction provides a convenient method for preparing 4,5,6,7-tetahydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridines (6) possessing various substituents at C-4.
