Syntheses and binding studies of new [(aryl)(aryloxy)methyl]piperidine derivatives and related compounds as potential antidepressant drugs with high affinity for serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) transporters.

In a wide search program toward new, efficient, and fast-acting antidepressant drugs, we have prepared series of new compounds having an (aryl)(aryloxy)methyl moiety linked directly or through a methylene chain to different substituted and unsubstituted cycles (isoquinoline, piperazine, piperidine, tetrahydropyran, or cyclopentane). These compounds have been evaluated for their affinities for serotonin (5-HT) transporter (SERT) and 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2A) receptors. Racemic mixtures of 4-[(aryl)(aryloxy)methyl]piperidine derivatives showed much higher affinity values for SERT than fluoxetine and resulted in lack of affinity for 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2A) receptors. Some of these racemic mixtures were resolved to their enantiomers and tested for binding to norepinephrine (NE) transporter (NET), dopamine (DA) transporter (DAT), and alpha(2) receptor. Several of these enantiomers [(-)-15b, (-)-15j, (-)-15t, (+)-15u] displayed a dual binding profile with affinities for SERT and NET with K(i) < 25 nM and a NET/SERT ratio <10. Compound (-)-15j (coded as F-98214-TA for development studies) showed a dual binding profile with very high affinity values for SERT and NET (K(i) = 1.9 and 13.5 nM, respectively), and further pharmacological characterization is in progress for its evaluation as a antidepressant.

Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of beta- and alpha-piperidine sulfone hydroxamic acid matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors with oral antitumor efficacy.

alpha-Piperidine-beta-sulfone hydroxamate derivatives were explored that are potent for matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-2, -9, and -13 and are sparing of MMP-1. The investigation of the beta-sulfones subsequently led to the discovery of hitherto unknown alpha-sulfone hydroxamates that are superior to the corresponding beta-sulfones in potency for target MMPs, selectivity vs MMP-1, and exposure when dosed orally. alpha-Piperidine-alpha-sulfone hydroxamate 35f (SC-276) was advanced through antitumor and antiangiogenesis assays and was selected for development. Compound 35f demonstrates excellent antitumor activity vs MX-1 breast tumor in mice when dosed orally as monotherapy or in combination with paclitaxel.

Structure-activity relationship studies of novel 4-[2-[bis(4-fluorophenyl)methoxy]ethyl]-1-(3-phenylpropyl)piperidine analogs: synthesis and biological evaluation at the dopamine and serotonin transporter sites.

Several analogs of the potent dopamine (DA) transporter ligand 4-[2-[bis(4-fluorophenyl)-methoxy]ethyl]-1-(3-phenylpropyl)piperidine, 1b, were made and biologically evaluated for their binding at the DA and serotonin (5HT) transporters in rat striatal membranes. Different alkyl chain lengths and substitutions were introduced in these molecules to generate an optimum activity and selectivity for the DA transporter. In general, unsubstituted and fluoro-substituted compounds were the most active and selective for the DA transporter. The compound 4-[2-(diphenylmethoxy)ethyl]-1-benzylpiperidine, 9a, showed high potency and was the most selective for the DA transporter (5HT/DA = 49) in this series of compounds. Some of these novel analogs were found to be more selective in binding at the DA transporter than the original GBR 12909 molecule, 1-[2-]bis(4-fluorophenyl)methoxy]ethyl]-4-(3- phenylpropyl)piperidine.

Halogenated 4-(phenoxymethyl)piperidines as potential radiolabeled probes for sigma-1 receptors: in vivo evaluation of [123I]-1-(iodopropen-2-yl)-4-[(4-cyanophenoxy)methyl]pip eri dine.

Several halogenated 4-(4-phenoxymethyl)piperidines were synthesized as potential sigma receptor ligands. The affinity and selectivity of these compounds were determined using in vitro receptor binding assays, and their log P values were estimated using HPLC analysis. The effect of various N-substituents on the sigma-1 and sigma-2 dissociation constants was examined. These substituents included fluoroalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, iodopropenyl, and selected ortho-, meta-, and para-substituted benzyl groups. Also determined were the effects of various moieties on the phenoxy ring; specifically 4-iodo, 4-bromo, 4-nitro, 4-cyano, 3-bromo, and pentafluoro substituents were examined. The ranges in the dissociation constants of these compounds for sigma-1 and sigma-2 receptors were 0.38-24.3 and 3.9-361 nM, respectively. The ratio of Ki (sigma-2/sigma-1) ranged from 1.19 to 121. One of the most promising of the iodinated ligands, 1-(trans-iodopropen-2-yl)-4-[(4-cyanophenoxy)methyl]piperidi ne (4), was labeled with 123I and studied in vivo in adult male rats. High uptake and good retention of radioactivity was observed in the brain and many other organs known to possess sigma receptors. Blocking studies revealed high specific binding of [123I]-4 to sigma receptors in the brain, lung, kidney, heart, muscle, and other organs known to possess these sites. These results indicate that [123I]-4 and other halogenated 4-(phenoxymethyl)piperidines of this series may provide useful probes for in vivo tomographic studies of sigma receptors.

Synthesis and ligand binding studies of 4'-iodobenzoyl esters of tropanes and piperidines at the dopamine transporter.

Four analogs and two homologs of cocaine, designed as potent cocaine antagonists, were synthesized. The SN2 reaction between ecgonine methyl ester (13) or appropriately substituted piperidinol (19, 21) and appropriately substituted 4-iodobenzoyl chloride gave 4-iodobenzoyl esters of tropanes and piperidines (5-8). 2'-Hydroxycocaine (9) was obtained from 2'-acetoxycocaine (12) by selective transesterification with MeOH saturated with dry HCl gas. 2'-Acetoxycocaine (12) was synthesized from acetylsalicyloyl chloride (23) and ecgonine methyl ester (13). The binding affinities of these compounds were determined at the dopamine transporter for the displacement of [3H]WIN-35428. An iodo group substitution at the 4'-position of cocaine decreased dopamine transporter binding potency, while a hydroxy or acetoxy group at the 2'-position exhibited increased binding potency for the dopamine transporter compared to cocaine (10- and 3.58-fold, respectively). 2'-Hydroxylation also enhanced the bidning potency of 4'-iodococaine (5) by 10-fold. Replacement of the tropane ring with piperidine led to poor binding affinities.

4,4-Disubstituted piperidine high-affinity NK1 antagonists: structure-activity relationships and in vivo activity.

Previously reported studies from these laboratories described the design of a novel series of high-affinity NK1 antagonists based on the 4,4-disubstituted piperidine ring system. Further structure-activity studies have now established that for high NK1 affinity the benzyl ether side chain must be 3,5-disubstituted and highly lipophilic, the optimal side chain being the 3, 5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl ether, 12 (hNK1 IC50 = 0.95 nM). Additional studies have shown that this class of NK1 antagonist tolerates a wider range of substituents on the piperidine nitrogen, including acyl (38) (hNK1 IC50 = 5.3 nM) and sulfonyl (39) (hNK1 IC50 = 5.7 nM) derivatives. Following preliminary pharmacokinetic analysis, two compounds (32 and 43) were selected for in vivo study in the resiniferotoxin-induced vascular leakage model, both showing excellent profiles (ID50 = 0.22 and 0.28 mg/kg, respectively).

Efficient enantiomeric synthesis of pyrrolidine and piperidine alkaloids from tobacco.

An enantiomeric synthesis of six piperidine and pyrrolidine alkaloids, (S)-nornicotine 1, (S)-nicotine 2, (S)-anatabine 3, (S)-N-methylanatabine 4, (S)-anabasine 5, and (S)-N-methylanabasine 6, known as natural products in tobacco, was established from a common chiral homoallylic (S)-3-(1-azido-but-3-enyl)-pyridine 15. An intramolecular hydroboration-cycloalkylation of the homoallylic azide intermediate 15 served as the key step in the pyrrolidine ring formation. A ring closing metathesis reaction (RCM) of a diethylenic amine intermediate (S)-allyl-(1-pyridin-3-yl-but-3-enyl)-carbamic acid benzyl ester 20 served as the key step in the piperidine ring formation. From the commercially available 3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde 13, a short and convenient enantiomeric synthesis of tobacco alkaloids is described: (S)-nornicotine 1 (5 steps, with an overall yield of 70%), (S)-nicotine 2 (6 steps, 65%), (S)-anatabine 3 (8 steps, 30%), (S)-N-methylanatabine 4 (8 steps, 25%), (S)-anabasine 5 (8 steps, 35%), and (S)-N-methylanabasine 6 (8 steps, 25%).

Remote stereocenter discrimination in the enzymatic resolution of piperidine-2-ethanol. Short enantioselective synthesis of sedamine and allosedamine.

Kinetic resolution of N-Boc-piperidine-2-ethanol (2), a case of remote stereocenter discrimination, was accomplished by sequential transesterification mediated by two enzymes, Lipase PS and porcine pancreatic lipase, showing opposite enantioselectivity. The gram-scale availability of the two enantiomeric N-Boc alcohols 2a (R) and 2c (S) enlarges their synthetic exploitation for the enantioselective preparation of piperidine alkaloids. As an example, the convenient three-step synthesis of both the enantiomers of sedamine and allosedamine is described.

Stereoselective synthesis of new chiral N-tertiary tetrasubstituted beta-enamino ester piperidines through an ammonia-catalyzed process.

We report here two approaches for the preparation of new N-substituted beta-enamino ester piperidines featuring an exocyclic tetrasubstituted double bond, based either on the direct alkylation of piperidine beta-enamino esters bearing an exocyclic trisubstituted double bond or on the intramolecular cyclization of linear amino beta-keto esters. The target compounds were obtained as unusual (Z)-stereoisomers in high yields. The key role of ammonia as reagent, acting both as a nucleophile and a base, was underlined. The diastereoselective formation of the products was rationalized on the basis of an ammonia addition-syn elimination catalytic process.

Divergent synthetic strategy leading to structurally diverse pyrrolidines and piperidines from common gamma-aminoalkyl butenolide and aldehyde precursors.

Condensation between aldehydes and the secondary amino function of 5-(aminoalkyl)furan-2(5H)-ones, obtained by the silyloxyfuran dienolate addition to imine-type derivatives, produces either aminoalkylbenzotriazoles or 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridines. The former can be reduced with SmI2 to generate alpha-aminoalkyl radicals that are trapped by the alpha,beta-unsaturated lactone moiety yielding substituted pyrrolidines diastereoselectively, while catalytic hydrogenation of the latter affords isomeric piperidine analogues. Alternatively, SmI2-promoted reduction of tetrahydropyridines in the presence of acid also leads to intermediate alpha-aminoalkyl radicals that participate in inter- or intramolecular olefin addition reactions. Further manipulation of the lactone functionality in various ways gives access to a number of interesting derivatives based upon either a pyrrolidine or a piperidine structural motif. As a result, a high degree of structural diversity is obtained in a few steps starting from a common set of simple materials.

Chiral NMR discrimination of piperidines and piperazines using (18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid.

Enantiomeric discrimination is observed in the (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra of piperidines and piperazines in the presence of (-)-(18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid. The amines are protonated by the carboxylic acid groups of the crown ether to produce the corresponding ammonium and carboxylate ions. Association of the ammonium ion with the crown ether likely involves two hydrogen bonds with the crown ether oxygen atoms and an ion pair with the carboxylate anion. Methyl, hydroxymethyl, phenyl, carboxyl, pyridyl, and cyclohexyl substituent groups alpha to the nitrogen atom do not inhibit binding of the ammonium ion to the crown ether. The NMR spectra of piperidines with the stereogenic center alpha or beta to the nitrogen atom exhibit substantial enantiomeric discrimination. Dibasic substrates such as the piperizines are likely converted to their diprotonated form in the presence of the crown ether, and both nitrogen atoms appear to associate with the crown ether moiety.

Strategy for the enantioselective synthesis of trans-2,4-disubstituted piperidines: application to the CCR3 antagonist IS811.

A strategy for the enantioselective synthesis of trans-2,4-disubstituted piperidines is proposed and applied to the preparation of IS811, a potent CCR3 antagonist. The C2 stereocenter is derived from commercial (R)-epichlorohydrin, while the C4 stereocenter is installed via diastereoselective hydrogenation of an alpha,beta-unsaturated lactone intermediate. Inversion of the original stereocenter via an efficient intramolecular S(N)2 amination affords the piperidine core of IS811. An improved protocol for the lithiation of ethyl propiolate is reported.

New polyhydroxylated pyrrolidine, piperidine, and pyrrolizidine alkaloids from Scilla sibirica.

Chromatographic separation of an extract of the bulbs of Scilla sibirica resulted in the isolation of five pyrrolidines, two pyrrolidine glycosides, six piperidines, one piperidine glycoside, and eight pyrrolizidines. 2,5-Dideoxy-2,5-imino-glycero-d-manno-heptitol (homoDMDP, 1) is a common alkaloid in all plants of the Hyacinthaceae examined to date and was also found in S. sibirica. The structures of the new alkaloids were elucidated by spectroscopic methods as 7-deoxy-homoDMDP (4), 2,5-dideoxy-2,5-imino-glycero-d-galacto-heptitol (5), the 4-O-beta-d-mannoside (6) and the 4-O-beta-d-mannobioside (7) of 6-deoxy-homoDMDP (2), 7-deoxyhomonojirimycin (12), 7-deoxyhomomannojirimycin (13), and polyhydroxypyrrolizidines, hyacinthacines A(4) (15), A(5) (16), A(6) (17), A(7) (18), B(4) (20), B(5) (21), and B(6) (22). HomoDMDP (1) is a potent inhibitor of beta-glucosidase and beta-galactosidase, while 6-deoxy-homoDMDP (2) showed significantly less inhibition. However, 7-deoxygenation of 1, leading to 4, showed no effect on the inhibitory activity toward both enzymes. Although 2 is not an inhibitor of alpha-l-fucosidase, the monomannoside of 2 shows inhibitory activity toward alpha-l-fucosidase. Elongation of the beta-mannopyranosyl chain of 6 to give 7 enhanced the inhibitory activity.

4-hydroxylated piperidines and N-methyleuphococcinine (1-methyl-3-granatanone) from Picea (Spruce) species. Identification and synthesis.

Three trace alkaloids from Colorado blue spruce, Picea pungens, were identified by synthesis and GC-MS comparisons as 4alpha-hydroxy-cis-2-methyl-6-(2-oxopropyl)piperidine (1), 4alpha-hydroxy-cis-2-methyl-6-propylpiperidine (11), and 1-methylgranatanone (15) (N-methyl-9-aza-1-methylbicyclo[3.3. 1]nonane or N-methyleuphococcinine). Alkaloids 1 and 11 are the first among numerous known pine and spruce piperidines to contain a ring-oxygenated substituent.

Solid-phase synthesis of aspartic peptidase inhibitors: 3-alkoxy-4-aryl piperidines.

[reaction: see text]. The 3-alkoxy-4-aryl piperidines are non-peptide peptidomimetic inhibitors of several aspartic peptidases. The solid-phase functionalization of 3,4-disubstituted piperidine scaffolds using a traceless linker strategy is described. Synthesis of diverse analogues based on this scaffold provides the potential to generate selective inhibitors of this important class of peptidase.

The X-ray crystal structure of 4-diphenylcarbamyl-N-methyl-piperidine methobromide (the carbamate analogue of 4-DAMP methiodide).

1. Crystals of 4-diphenylcarbamyl-N-methylpiperidine methobromide contain 2 conformers, one with the ester group equatorial and the other with the ester group axial to the piperidine ring. 2. In both conformers and diphenylcarbamyl nitrogen is trigonally substituted and flat compared with the tetrahedral substitution of the corresponding carbon atom in 4-diphenylacetoxy-N-methylpiperidine (4-DAMP) methiodide. 3. The low activity and selectivity of the carbamate at muscarinic receptors is comparable with that of compounds containing only one phenyl ring, e.g. phenylacetyl-N-methyl piperidine methiodide or phenylacetylcholine. It is suggested that the high affinity of 4-DAMP metho-salts and their selectivity depend upon interactions with groups arranged in three dimensions and that the trigonal arrangement about the nitrogen atom in the carbamate makes it impossible for both benzene rings to interact at once.
