The present invention pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds. More specifically the present invention pertains to certain amido-thiophene compounds that, inter alia, inhibit 11 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11 β-HSD1 ). The present invention also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, both in vitro and in vivo, to inhibit 11 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1; to treat disorders that are ameliorated by the inhibition of 11 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1; to treat the metabolic syndrome, which includes disorders such as type 2 diabetes and obesity, and associated disorders including insulin resistance, hypertension, lipid disorders and cardiovascular disorders such as ischaemic (coronary) heart disease; to treat CNS disorders such as mild cognitive impairment and early dementia, including Alzheimer's disease; etc.

enantiomerically pure chiral amines continues to expand, few existing methods provide access to secondary amines. To address this shortcoming, we have over-expressed the gene for an (R)-imine reductase [(R)-IRED] from Streptomyces sp. GF3587 in Escherichia coli to create a recombinant whole-cell biocatalyst for the asymmetricreduction of prochiral imines. The (R)-IRED was screened against a panel of cyclic imines

The imine reductase AoIRED from Amycolatopsis orientalis (Uniprot R4SNK4) catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of a wide range of prochiral imines and iminiumions, predominantly with (S)-selectivity and with ee’s of up to >99%. AoIRED displays up to 100-fold greater catalytic efficiency for 2-methyl-1-pyrroline (2MPN) compared to other IREDs, such as the enzyme from Streptomyces sp. GF3546, which

by biocatalysts has led to development of multistep in vitro enzyme cascades, taking advantage of generally compatible reaction conditions. The construction of pathways within single wholecell systems is much less explored, yet has many advantages. Herein we report the generation of a successful wholecell de novo enzyme cascade for the diastereoselective and/or enantioselective conversion of simple

novel amineoxidase (AO)/iminereductase (IRED) system was developed for the deracemization of racemic amines. By combining (R)‐6‐hydroxy‐d‐nicotine oxidase (6‐HDNO) with an (R)‐IRED, a panel of racemic 2‐substituted piperidines and pyrrolidines were deracemized to yield the (S)‐amines in high yields and enantiomeric excess values. Other N‐heterocycles were deracemized with monoamine oxidase (MAO‐N)
