Construction of Benzosultam‐Containing Fused‐ and Linked‐Biheterocycles by a Cascade Double Nucleophilic Cyclization
摘要:
AbstractAlthough nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) and many nucleophilic epoxide ring‐opening reactions proceed under similar anionic conditions, the literature examples of using these reactions in tandem for the construction of heterocyclic compounds are scarce. In this article, we disclose a detailed account of the synthesis of benzothiaoxazepine‐1,1‐dioxide‐containing fused‐ and linked‐biheterocycles by a base‐mediated, exo‐selective intramolecular epoxide‐opening/intramolecular nucleophilic aromatic substitution cascade of epoxide‐tethered ortho‐fluorobenzenesulfonamides. A wide range of substrates exhibited high overall yields and complete regio‐ and diastereoselectivity
N-Glycine-sulfonamides as potent dual orexin 1/orexin 2 receptor antagonists
摘要:
A series of dual OX(1)R/OX(2)R orexin antagonists was prepared based on a N-glycine-sulfonamide core. SAR studies of a screening hit led to compounds with low nanomolar affinity for both receptors and good oral bioavailability. One of these compounds, 47, has demonstrated in vivo activity in rats following oral administration. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
