<i>N</i><sup>G</sup>-Acylated Imidazolylpropylguanidines as Potent Histamine H<sub>4</sub> Receptor Agonists: Selectivity by Variation of the <i>N</i><sup>G</sup>-Substituent
3-(1H-Imidazol-4-yl)propylguanidine (SK&F 91486, 4) was identified as a potent partial agonist at the human histamine H-3 receptor (hH(3)R) and human histamine H-4 receptor (hH(4)R). With the aim to increase selectivity for the hH4R, the guanidine group in 4 was acylated. N-1-Acetyl-N-2-[3-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)propyl]guanidine (UR-PI288, 13) was a potent full agonist at the hH(4)R (pEC(50) = 8.31; alpha = 1.00), possessing more than 1000- and 100-fold selectivity relative to the hH(1)R and hH(2)R, respectively, and possessing only low intrinsic activity (alpha = 0.27) at the hH(3)R.
Palladium- or Iridium-Catalyzed Allylic Substitution of Guanidines: Convenient and Direct Modification of Guanidines
As a convenient and direct functionalization of guanidines, the transition metal-catalyzed allylic substitution of guanidines was studied. The guanidine derivatives bearing two electron-withdrawing substituents acted as reactive nucleophiles in the allylic substitution to give the rnonoallylated products. The double allylic substitution was achieved by using tri-Boc-guanidine bearing three electron-withdrawing substituents as a nucleophile to give the diallylated products. The regiocontrol in the allylic substitution of unsymmetrical allylic substrates has been investigated by employing the palladium or iridium catalysts. The iridium complex of chiral pybox ligand allowed the regio- and enantioselective allylic substitution. Asymmetric double allylic substitution of tri-Boc-guanidine with phosphate bearing the 1-naphthyl group gave the diallylated product with high diastereo-, regio-, and enantioselectivities.
