Synthesis of 5,6-dihydro-11H-benzo[5,6]-cyclohepta[1,2-b]pyridin-11-ylidene)-1-piperidine-N-cyanoguanidine derivatives as inhibitors of ras farnesyl protein transferase.

A series of novel N-cyanoguanidine tricyclic farnesyl protein transferase (FPT) inhibitors was prepared. Replacement of a piperidine amide-group with a N-cyanoguanidine functionality increased FPT activity. X-ray crystal structure determination of 42 complexed with FPT revealed differences in the interactions of the amide and N-cyanoguanidine groups with the protein.

2-piperidin-4-yl-benzimidazoles with broad spectrum antibacterial activities.

A series of 2-piperidin-4-yl-benzimidazoles were synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activities. Certain compounds inhibit bacterial growth with low micromolar minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC). These benzimidazoles are effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria of clinical importance, particularly enterococci, and represent a new class of potential antibacterial agents.

Analogs of 4-(3-bromo-8-methyl-10-methoxy-6,11-dihydro-5H-benzo[5,6]-cyclo hepta[1,2-b]pyridin-11-yl)-1-(4-pyridinylacetyl)piperidine N-oxide as inhibitors of farnesyl protein transferase.

A series of 3-substituted analogs 3 of 4-(3-bromo-8-methyl-10-methoxy-6,11-dihydro-5H-benzo[5,6]-cyclohepta[1,2 b]pyridin-11-yl)-1-(4-pyridinylacetyl)piperidine N-oxide 2 was prepared and evaluated as FPT inhibitors. The objective of this study was to identify other substituents at C3 in this series of FPT inhibitors that would have the FPT potency enhancement similar to that found for a C3 bromo substituent. The 3-methyl analog 17b was found to be tenfold less active than 2, and other C3 substituents having more steric bulk were found to cause a further reduction in activity.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of two novel DAT-binding technetium complexes containing a piperidine based analogue of cocaine.

Two new technetium complexes containing a piperidine template have been synthesized and evaluated as possible leads for the development of dopamine transporter (DAT) imaging agents. Binding data for the corresponding rhenium complexes containing either a monoaminomonoamide (MAMA') or a diaminodithiol (DADT) chelating unit exhibited significant affinity for the DAT. Initial biodistribution studies in rats revealed only a low brain uptake.

Synthesis of N-substituted piperidine-4-(benzylidene-4-carboxylic acids) and evaluation as inhibitors of steroid-5alpha-reductase type 1 and 2.

The synthesis of N-substituted piperidine-4-(benzylidene-4-carboxylic acids) is described [benzoyl (1), benzyl (2), adamantanoyl (3), cyclohexanoyl (4), cyclohexylacetyl (5), diphenylacetyl (6), dicyclohexylacetyl (7), 2-propylpentanoyl (8), diphenylcarbamoyl (9), trimethylacetyl (10), 3,3-dimethylacryloyl (11), dicyclohexylacetyl derivative of the benzyl compound (12)]. Compounds were tested for inhibitory activity toward 5alpha-reductase isozymes 1 and 2 in human and rat. The test compounds inhibited 5alpha-reductase, showing a broad range of inhibitory potencies. In rat, compounds 6 (IC50 = 3.44 and 0.37 microM for type 1 and 2, respectively) and 9 (IC50=0.54 and 0.69 microM for type 1 and 2, respectively) displayed the best inhibition toward both isozymes. Compound 7 showed a strong inhibition toward type 2 human and rat enzyme (IC50 = 60 and 80 nM) but only a moderate activity versus type 1 enzyme (IC50 approximately 10 microM for rat and human enzyme). In vivo, selected compounds reduced prostate weights in castrated testosterone treated rats.

Pyrazolinone-piperidine dipeptide growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs). Discovery of capromorelin.

Novel pyrazolinone-piperidine dipeptide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs). Two analogues, capromorelin (5, CP-424391-18, hGHS-R1a K(i)=7 nM, rat pituicyte EC(50)=3 nM) and the des-methyl analogue 5c (hGHS-R1a K(i)=17 nM, rat pituicyte EC(50)=3 nM), increased plasma GH levels in an anesthesized rat model, with ED(50) values less than 0.05 mg/kg iv. Capromorelin showed enhanced intestinal absorption in rodent models and exhibited superior pharmacokinetic properties, including high bioavailabilities in two animal species [F(rat)=65%, F(dog)=44%]. This short-duration GHS was orally active in canine models and was selected as a development candidate for the treatment of musculoskeletal frailty in elderly adults.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of 1-(4-[18F]fluorobenzyl)-4-[(5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxoindan-2-yl)methyl]piperidine for in vivo studies of acetylcholinesterase.

We synthesized and evaluated 1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-4-[(5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxoindan-2-yl)methyl]piperidine (4-FDP), which is an analog of donepezil. The 4-[(18)F]FDP was prepared by reductive alkylation of debenzylated donepezil with 4-[(18)F]fluorobenzaldehyde in high radiochemical yield (decay-corrected, 40-52%) and with high effective specific activity (30-38 GBq/micromol). Tissue distribution studies in mice demonstrated nonspecific distribution of the 4-[(18)F]FDP in brain regions, suggesting that this radioligand may not be a suitable agent for in vivo studies of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), despite its potent in vitro biological activity.

In vivo evaluation of [18F]1-(3-fluoropropyl)-4-(4-cyanophenoxymethyl)piperidine: a selective sigma-1 receptor radioligand for PET.

1-(3-Fluoropropyl)-4-(4-cyanophenoxymethyl)piperidine (1) has been synthesized as a selective high affinity (Ki = 4.3 nM) ligand for sigma-1 receptors (Ki sigma-1/sigma2 = 0.03). The corresponding radioligand, 18F-1, was synthesized via nucleophilic [18F]fluoride displacement from the appropriate N-alkylmesylate precursor. After HPLC purification, 18F-1 was obtained in 56-70% EOB (n = 5) with a specific activity > 74,000 MBq/mumol. In vivo distribution and pharmacological blocking studies using 18F-1 were performed in male Australian Albino Wistar rats. 18F-1 exhibited high brain uptake (2.47 +/- 0.37% ID at 20 min PI) with no significant loss of radioactivity from the brain over the course of the study (4 h). The uptake of radioactivity in the brain, lung, heart, and kidney was reduced significantly by the pre-administration sigma receptor-binding ligands, indicating the in vivo specificity of the ligand. The radiotracer also exhibited high uptake (11.14 +/- 1.99% ID/g) in B16 melanoma tumours in nude mice. The mean tumour/ tissue ratios at 4 h for the blood, muscle, lung and brain were 123.8, 7.2, 2.5 and 2.6, respectively. In view of these results, 18F-1 shows promise for the in vivo tomographic evaluation of sigma receptors.
