Sustainable Synthesis of a Potent and Selective 5-HT7 Receptor Antagonist Using a Mechanochemical Approach.

ABSTRACT: A mechanochemical procedure was developed to obtain PZ-1361, a potent and selective 5-HT7 receptor antagonist, with antidepressant properties in rodents. The elaborated protocol offered several advantages over classical batch synthesis, including improvement of the overall yield (from 34% to 64%), reduction of reaction time (from 60 to 5.5 h), limitation of the use of toxic solvents, and the formation of byproducts. This approach represents a rare example of the synthesis of biologically active compounds exclusively performed using mechanochemical reactions.

Synthesis and activity of functionalizable derivatives of the serotonin (5-HT) 5-HT2A receptor (5-HT2AR) antagonist M100907.

Project description:The approach of tethering together two known receptor ligands, to be used as molecular probes for the study of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) systems, has proven to be a valuable approach. Selective ligands that possess functionality that can be used to link to other ligands, are useful in the development of novel antagonists and agonists. Such molecules can also be attached to reporter molecules, such as fluorophores, for the study of GPCR dimerization and its role in signaling. The highly selective serotonin (5-HT) 5-HT2A receptor (5-HT2AR) antagonist M100907 (volinanserin) is of clinical interest in the treatment of neurological and mental health disorders. Here, we synthesized the most active (+)-M100907 enantiomer as well as a series of derivatives that possessed either an alkyne or an azide. The triazole resulting from the dipolar cycloaddition of these groups did not interfere with the ability of the bivalent ligand to act as an antagonist. Thus, we have synthesized a number of compounds which will prove useful in elucidating the role of the 5-HT2AR in the central nervous system.

Radiosynthesis and Biological Evaluation of [18F]R91150, a Selective 5-HT2A Receptor Antagonist for PET-Imaging.

Project description:Serotonergic 5-HT2A receptors in cortical and forebrain regions are an important substrate for the neuromodulatory actions of serotonin in the brain. They have been implicated in the etiology of many neuropsychiatric disorders and serve as a target for antipsychotic, antidepressant, and anxiolytic drugs. Positron emission tomography imaging using suitable radioligands can be applied for in vivo quantification of receptor densities and receptor occupancy for therapy evaluation. Recently, the radiosynthesis of the selective 5-HT2AR antagonist [18F]R91150 was reported. However, the six-step radiosynthesis is cumbersome and time-consuming with low radiochemical yields (RCYs) of <5%. In this work, [18F]R91150 was prepared using late-stage Cu-mediated radiofluorination to simplify its synthesis. The detailed protocol enabled us to obtain RCYs of 14 ± 1%, and the total synthesis time was reduced to 60 min. In addition, autoradiographic studies with [18F]R91150 in rat brain slices revealed the typical uptake pattern of 5-HT2A receptor ligands.

Characterization of BU09059: a novel potent selective κ-receptor antagonist.

Project description:Kappa-opioid receptor (κ) antagonists are potential therapeutic agents for a range of psychiatric disorders. The feasibility of developing κ-antagonists has been limited by the pharmacodynamic properties of prototypic κ-selective antagonists; that is, they inhibit receptor signaling for weeks after a single administration. To address this issue, novel trans-(3R,4R)-dimethyl-4-(3-hydroxyphenyl) piperidine derivatives, based on JDTic, were designed using soft-drug principles. The aim was to determine if the phenylpiperidine-based series of κ-antagonists was amenable to incorporation of a potentially metabolically labile group, while retaining good affinity and selectivity for the κ-receptor. Opioid receptor binding affinity and selectivity of three novel compounds (BU09057, BU09058, and BU09059) were tested. BU09059, which most closely resembles JDTic, had nanomolar affinity for the κ-receptor, with 15-fold and 616-fold selectivity over μ- and δ-receptors, respectively. In isolated tissues, BU09059 was a potent and selective κ-antagonist (pA2 8.62) compared with BU09057 (pA2 6.87) and BU09058 (pA2 6.76) which were not κ-selective. In vivo, BU09059 (3 and 10 mg/kg) significantly blocked U50,488-induced antinociception and was as potent as, but shorter acting than, the prototypic selective κ-antagonist norBNI. These data show that a new JDTic analogue, BU09059, retains high affinity and selectivity for the κ-receptor and has a shorter duration of κ-antagonist action in vivo.

Synthesis, characterization, and in vitro evaluation of the selective P2Y2 receptor antagonist AR-C118925.

Project description:The Gq protein-coupled, ATP- and UTP-activated P2Y2 receptor is a potential drug target for a range of different disorders, including tumor metastasis, inflammation, atherosclerosis, kidney disorders, and osteoporosis, but pharmacological studies are impeded by the limited availability of suitable antagonists. One of the most potent and selective antagonists is the thiouracil derivative AR-C118925. However, this compound was until recently not commercially available and little is known about its properties. We therefore developed an improved procedure for the synthesis of AR-C118925 and two derivatives to allow up-scaling and assessed their potency in calcium mobilization assays on the human and rat P2Y2 receptors recombinantly expressed in 1321N1 astrocytoma cells. The compound was further evaluated for inhibition of P2Y2 receptor-induced β-arrestin translocation. AR-C118925 behaved as a competitive antagonist with pA 2 values of 37.2 nM (calcium assay) and 51.3 nM (β-arrestin assay). Selectivity was assessed vs. related receptors including P2X, P2Y, and adenosine receptor subtypes, as well as ectonucleotidases. AR-C118925 showed at least 50-fold selectivity against the other investigated targets, except for the P2X1 and P2X3 receptors which were blocked by AR-C118925 at concentrations of about 1 μM. AR-C118925 is soluble in buffer at pH 7.4 (124 μM) and was found to be metabolically highly stable in human and mouse liver microsomes. In Caco2 cell experiments, the compound displayed moderate permeability indicating that it may show limited peroral bioavailability. AR-C118925 appears to be a useful pharmacological tool for in vitro and in vivo studies.

3-Amino-chromanes and Tetrahydroquinolines as Selective 5-HT2B, 5-HT7, or σ1 Receptor Ligands.

Project description:The phenethylamine backbone is a privileged substructure found in a wide variety of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) ligands. This includes both endogenous neurotransmitters and active pharmaceutical agents. More than 20 structurally unique heterocyclic phenethylamine derivatives were broadly evaluated for GPCR affinity. Selective ligands for the 5-HT2B, 5-HT7, and σ1 receptors were identified, each with low nanomolar binding affinities. The σ1 receptor affinity was supported in a cellular assay that provided evidence for increased cell survival under oxidative stress.

Synthesis and evaluation of dimeric derivatives of 5-HT(2A) receptor (5-HT(2A)R) antagonist M-100907.

Project description:It is now well accepted that at least some serotonin receptors exist in dimeric and oligmeric forms. The linking of receptor ligands has been shown to have potential in the development of selective agonists and antagonists for traditionally refractive receptors. Here we report the development of a dimeric version of the known 5-HT(2A)R antagonist, M-100907. Derivatives of M-100907 were synthesized to determine an appropriate site for the linker connection. Then, homodimers with polyether linkers of different lengths were functionally tested in a bioassay to determine the optimal linker length. Attachment at the catechol of M-100907 with linkers between 12 and 18 atoms in length proved to be optimal.

Mechanistic Insights into a Sustainable Mechanochemical Synthesis of Ettringite.

Project description:Mechanochemistry offers an environmentally benign and facile synthesis method for a variety of cement paste constituents. In addition, these methods can be used to selectively tune the properties of cement components. The mineral ettringite is an important component of cementitious materials and has additional technological potential due to its ion exchange properties. Synthesis of ettringite via mechanochemistry is an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional wet-chemical synthesis established in industry. This contribution explores the mechanism of a two-step mechanochemical synthesis of ettringite, which was previously found to greatly improve the reaction conversion as compared with one-pot synthesis. The crystallinity of Al(OH)3 was found to decrease during the first stage of this mechanochemical synthesis. This was correlated to a significant decrease in the particle size of Al(OH)3 in this stage. No other significant changes were found for the other components, suggesting that mechanochemical activation of Al(OH)3 is responsible for the enhanced formation of ettringite by the two-step approach. The environmentally friendly approach developed for ettringite synthesis offers a versatile synthetic strategy, which can be applied to synthesise further cementitious materials.

BAY-6096: A Potent, Selective, and Highly Water-Soluble Adrenergic α2B Antagonist.

Project description:After acute myocardial infarction, early reperfusion is the most effective strategy for reducing cardiac damage and improving clinical outcome. However, restoring blood flow to the ischemic myocardium can paradoxically induce injury by itself (reperfusion injury), with microvascular dysfunction being one contributing factor. α2B adrenergic receptors have been hypothesized to be involved in this process. To assess α2B-related pharmacology, we identified a novel α2B antagonist by HTS. The HTS hit showed limited α2A selectivity as well as low solubility and was optimized toward BAY-6096, a potent, selective, and highly water-soluble α2B antagonist. Key aspects of the optimization were the introduction of a permanently charged pyridinium moiety to achieve very good aqueous solubility and the inversion of an amide to prevent genotoxicity. BAY-6096 dose-dependently reduced blood pressure increases in rats induced by an α2B agonist, demonstrating the role of α2B receptors in vascular constriction in rats.

Practical and Sustainable Synthesis of Optically Pure Levocabastine, a H₁ Receptor Antagonist.

Project description:A practical and sustainable method for the synthesis of levocabastine hydrochloride (1), a H₁ receptor antagonist for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis, that can be applied to the industrial production of the compound has been developed. Substantial improvements over the previously reported procedure are achieved via efficient preparation of an optically active key intermediate (5) without chiral resolution and with a more effective detosylation, which complements the previous procedure. Notably, our process requires no chromatographic purification and provides levocabastine hydrochloride in greater than 99.5% purity in a 14.2% overall yield.

Lurasidone inhibits NMDA receptor antagonist-induced functional abnormality of thalamocortical glutamatergic transmission via 5-HT7 receptor blockade.

Project description:Background and purposeLurasidone is an atypical mood-stabilizing antipsychotic with a unique receptor-binding profile, including 5-HT7 receptor antagonism; however, the detailed effects of 5-HT7 receptor antagonism on various transmitter systems relevant to schizophrenia, particularly the thalamo-insular glutamatergic system and the underlying mechanisms, are yet to be clarified.Experimental approachWe examined the mechanisms underlying the clinical effects of lurasidone by measuring the release of l-glutamate, GABA, dopamine, and noradrenaline in the reticular thalamic nucleus (RTN), mediodorsal thalamic nucleus (MDTN) and insula of freely moving rats in response to systemic injection or local infusion of lurasidone or MK-801 using multiprobe microdialysis with ultra-HPLC.Key resultsSystemic MK-801 (0.5 mg·kg-1 ) administration increased insular release of l-glutamate, dopamine, and noradrenaline but decreased GABA release. Systemic lurasidone (1 mg·kg-1 ) administration also increased insular release of l-glutamate, dopamine, and noradrenaline but without affecting GABA. Local lurasidone administration into the insula (3 μM) did not affect MK-801-induced insular release of l-glutamate or catecholamine, whereas local lurasidone administration into the MDTN (1 μM) inhibited MK-801-induced insular release of l-glutamate and catecholamine, similar to the 5-HT7 receptor antagonist SB269970.Conclusions and implicationsThe present results indicate that MK-801-induced insular l-glutamate release is generated by activation of thalamo-insular glutamatergic transmission via MDTN GABAergic disinhibition resulting from NMDA receptor inhibition in the MDTN and RTN. Lurasidone inhibited this MK-801-evoked insular l-glutamate release through inhibition of excitatory 5-HT7 receptor in the MDTN. These effects on thalamo-insular glutamatergic transmission may contribute to the antipsychotic and mood-stabilizing actions of lurasidone.
