The invention relates to pyridinyl nicotinic acetylcholine receptor ligands, compositions comprising an effective amount of a pyridinyl nicotinic acetylcholine receptor ligand and methods to treat or prevent a condition, such as depression and nicotine dependence, comprising administering to an animal in need thereof an effective amount of a pyridinyl nicotinic acetylcholine receptor ligand.
A NiCl2(PEt3)2‐catalyzed regioselective C−Hcoupling of 8‐aminoquinoline‐derived benzamides with oxetanes has been developed. The reaction proceeds with concomitant removal of the 8‐aminoquinoline auxiliary to directly form the corresponding seven‐memberedbenzolactones, which frequently occur in natural products and bioactive molecules. Additionally, no stereochemical erosion is observed during the
