Advanced surface functionalization of periodic mesoporous silica: Kinetic control by trisilazane reagents.

The surface reactions of mesoporous silica MCM-41 with a series of new trisilylamines (trisilazanes) (SiHMe2)2NSiMe2R and (SiMe2Vin)2NSiMe2R (R = indenyl, norpinanyl, chloropropyl, 3-(N-morpholin)propyl; Vin = vinyl), disilylalkylamine (SiHMe2)iPrNSiMe2(CH2)3Cl, and monosilyldialkylamines Me2NSiMe2R (R = indenyl, chloropropyl, 3-(N-morpholin)propyl) were investigated. 1H, 13C, and 29Si MAS NMR spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption/desorption, infrared spectroscopy, and model reactions with calix[4]arene as a mimic for an oxo surface were used to clarify the chemical nature of surface-bonded silyl groups. The trisilylamines exhibited a comparatively slow surface reaction, which allowed for the adjustment of the amount of silylated and nonreacted SiOH groups and led to a stoichiometric distribution of surface functionalities. The 2:1 integral ratio of SiHMe2 and SiMe2R moieties of such trisilazanes was found to be preserved on the silica surface as indicated by microanalytical as well as 13C and 29Si MAS NMR spectroscopic data of the hybrid materials. For example, the reaction of MCM-41 with (SiHMe2)2NSiMe2(CH2)3Cl, (SiHMe2)iPrNSiMe2(CH2)3Cl, and Me2NSiMe2(CH2)3Cl provided bi- and monofunctional hybrid materials with one-third, one-half, or all chemically accessible silanol groups derivatized by chloropropyl groups, respectively. Thus, a molecular precursor strategy was developed to efficiently control the relative amount of three different surface species, SiHMe2 (or SiVinMe2), SiMe2R, and SiOH, in a single reaction step. The reaction behavior of indenyl-substituted monosilazanes and trisilazanes (R = Ind) with calix[4]arene proved that the indenyl substituent can act as a leaving group forming a dimethylsilyl species, which is anchored bipodally on the silica surface, that is, via two Si-O bonds.

Photoreaction of a 2,11-diaza[3.3]paracyclophane derivative: formation of octahedrane by photochemical dimerization of benzene.

Upon photoirradiation at 300 nm, the title diazaparacyclophane (R = COCF3) provided an octahedrane by the photodimerization of its benzene chromophores. This is the first photochemical formation of octahedrane, namely, via the dimerization of benzene. No octahedrane formation was observed for the photolysis of corresponding carbon-bridged paracyclophane. Thus the nitrogen bridges play an important role in the excited state to afford the octahedrane.

Identification of a series of 3-(benzyloxy)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane human NK1 antagonists.

The synthesis and in vitro and in vivo evaluation of a series of 3-(benzyloxy)-1-azabicyclo-[2.2.2]octane NK1 antagonists are described. While a number of 3,5-disubstituted benzyl ethers afford high affinity, the 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl was found to combine high in vitro affinity with good oral activity. Detailed structure-activity relationship studies in conjunction with data from molecular modeling and mutagenesis work have allowed the construction of a model of the pharmacophore. Specific interactions that have been identified include an interaction between His-197 and one of the rings of the benzhydryl, a lipophilic pocket containing His-265 that the benzyl ether occupies, and a possible hydrogen bond between Gln-165 and the oxygen of the benzyl ether.

Synthesis and evaluation of the anti-HIV activity of aza and deaza analogues of isoddA and their phosphates as prodrugs.

Some aza and deaza analogues of the anti-HIV agent 2',3'-dideoxy-3'-oxoadenosine (isoddA) (8-aza-, 8-aza-1-deaza, 8-aza-3-deaza-, 1-deaza-, and 3-deaza-isoddA) were synthesized and found inactive against HIV in vitro. The hypothesis that the inactivity of these isonucleosides might be due to their poor affinity for cellular nucleoside kinases was checked by the synthesis of a series of 5'-[bis(2,2,2-trichloroethyl) phosphate] triesters and 5'-phenyl phosphoramidate derivatives which, acting as membrane soluble prodrugs, could release the free phosphate form inside the cell. The 5'-(phenylmethoxy)alaninyl phosphate derived from 8-aza-isoddA was found active against HIV-1 and HIV-2 with a potency similar to that of isoddA, while the anti-HIV potency of 5'-(phenylmethoxy)alaninyl phosphate of isoddA proved remarkably higher than that of isoddA, in particular against HIV-2, being similar to that of AZT. Further evidence that 8-aza-isoddA could behave as anti-HIV agent, provided that it is activated as phosphate, was obtained by the synthesis of its 5'-triphosphate derivative, which proved to be an active inhibitor of HIV-1 recombinant reverse transcriptase.

Cysteine protease inhibition by azapeptide esters.

Papain, a prototype cysteine protease, was inhibited in a time-dependent manner by azapeptide esters designed to deliver an azaglycine group to the active-site thiol. For example, the rate of inhibition was 18 M-1s-1 for Ac-L-PheAglyOiBu (2) and > 11,000 M-1s-1 for Ac-L-PheAglyOPh (7). The rate of inhibition was slowed in the presence of substrate, and there was no reactivation of the inhibited enzyme after dialysis and incubation in the assay buffer. The inhibited enzyme was completely reactivated after the addition of valine methyl ester. The inhibited form of the enzyme is presumed to be acylated on the active-site thiol. An azaalanine-based peptide inhibited papain much more slowly. Azapeptide alkyl esters are unreactive with serine proteases; therefore, these inhibitors are selective for cysteine proteases.

Total chemical synthesis and antitumor evaluation of the 9-aza analogue of N-(trifluoroacetyl)-4-demethoxydaunomycin.

The 9-aza analogue of N-(trifluoroacetyl)-4-demethoxydaunomycin has been synthesized from 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde. Pomeranz-Fritsch condensation followed by borohydride reduction and acid-catalyzed cyclization led smoothly to 4-hydroxy-5,8-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline. Selective N-acetylation and subsequent Friedel-Crafts acylation with phthalic anhydride produced 2-acetyl-5,12-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydro-2-azanaphthacene-6,11-dione, which was protected as its dimethyl ether and epoxidized to an acylated aza Brigl's anhydride. This was converted to (+/-)-2-acetyl-4-hydroxy-5,12-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2- azanaphthacene-6,11-dione by dehydration to the 4-keto analogue followed by cyanoborohydride reduction either stepwise or in situ. The protecting groups were removed with boron trichloride and the resulting aglycone glycosidated with optically active N,O-bis(trifluoroacetyl)daunosamine bromide and silver trifluoromethanesulfonate. The resulting diastereoisomers were separated by column chromatography and their structures established by CD and NMR spectroscopy. Unexpectedly it was not possible to remove the N-trifluoroacetyl blocking group without aromatization to the azanaphthaquinone. Both (R)- and (S)-acetyl-4-O-[N-(trifluoroacetyl)daunosaminyl]-5,12-dihydroxy-2- azanaphthacene-6,11-dione were inactive ip in mice carrying the P388 tumor. Drugs were given at various concentrations on days 0, 5, and 9.

7-Oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptyl carboxylic acids as thromboxane A2 antagonists: aza omega-chain analogues.

A novel bicyclic prostaglandin analogue, [1S-[1 alpha, 2 alpha (Z), 3 alpha, 4 alpha]]-7-[3-[[[[(1- Oxoheptyl)amino]acetyl]amino]-methyl]-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2- yl]-5-heptenoic acid [-)-7) was found to be a potent and selective thromboxane A2 (TxA2) receptor antagonist. Unlike the related series of omega-chain allylic alcohols, amide 7 and its congeners were uniformly free of direct contractile activity in vitro (bovine coronary) and in vivo (anesthetized guinea pig). Amide 7 was effective in the inhibition of (a) arachidonic acid induced platelet aggregation of human platelet-rich plasma (I50 = 0.18 +/- 0.006 microM), (b) 11,9-epoxymethano-PGH2 induced platelet aggregation of human platelet-rich plasma (I50 = 0.24 microM), (c) 11,9-epoxymethano-PGH2 induced contraction of guinea pig trachea (Kb = 3.0 +/- 0.3 nM) or rat aorta (Kb = 8.8 +/- 1.1 nM), and (d) arachidonic acid induced bronchoconstriction in the anesthetized guinea pig (0.1-1.0 mg/kg iv). Amide 7 inhibited the binding of [5,6-3H2]-[1S- (1 alpha, 2 alpha (Z), 3 alpha, 4 alpha)]-7-[3-[[2-[(Phenyl- amino)carbonyl]hydrazino]methyl]-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl]-5- heptenoic acid to human platelet membranes in a specific and saturable manner with a Kd = 49.6 +/- 1.4 nM.

Potential antitumor agents. 25. Azalogues of the 4'-(9-acridinylamino) methanesulfonanilides.

Tumor inhibition inhibition produced by isomeric, nitro-substituted 4'-(9-acridinylamino)methanesulfonanilide analogues of low base strength (pKa=4.79-5.72) might result from in vivo reduction to the corresponding, higher pKa (7.15-9.80), tumor active amines. The aza analogues,-N=in place of -C(NO2)=, have been prepared as nonclassical bioisosteres and screened in the L1210 system. Significant L1210 inhibition produced by isomeric 3- and 4-azalogues, of similar base strength to the corresponding nitro-substituted derivatives, demonstrates that weakly basic analogues can provide biologic activity when there is no prospect of in vivo reduction to more strongly basic products. Obligatory reduction of nitro function, for biologic activity, need not be postulated in this drug series.

Prostaglandin isosteres. 1. (8-Aza-, 8,10-diaza-, and 8-aza-11-thia)-9-oxoprostanoic acids and their derivatives.

A series of novel (8-aza-, 8,10-diaza-, and 8-aza-11-thia)-9-oxoprostanoic acids has been synthesized and evaluated for their ability to mimic the E series prostaglandins in stimulating cAMP formation in the mouse ovary and in binding to the rat kidney plasma prostaglandin receptor. 7-[2-(3-Hydroxyoctyl)-1,1,4-trioxo-3-thiazolidinyl]heptanoic acid markedly stimulates cAMP formation at reasonable pharmacological concentrations and avidly binds to the rat kidney prostaglandin receptor.

2-Azabicyclo (2.2.2)octane analogues of the prodine analgetics.

The synthesis and analgetic activity of analogues of prodine-type analgetics in which the conformation of the piperidine ring is restricted in the boat form using the 2-azabicyclo (2.2.2)octane nucleus are reported. One of these analogues, 2-methyl-6-trans-phenyl-6-cis-propionoxy-2-azabicyclo (2.2.2)octane (3), showed significant analgetic activity (ED50 equals 3.1 mg/kg).

Antiallergic activity of 2-phenyl-8-azapurin-6-ones.

The synthesis and antiallergic activity in the rat passive cutaneous anaphylactic reaction of a series of 2-phenyl-8-azapurin-6-ones are described. Early in the investigation, a linear free-energy equation was established in which the activity was related to the size and hydrogen bonding capacity of the ortho substituent in the phenyl ring. This relationship was used to provide guidance and limits for subsequent work leading to 2-o-propoxyphenyl-8-azapurin-6-one which is 40 times more potent than disodium cromoglycate. It is suggested that good antiallergic activity in this series is associated with coplanarity of the phenyl group with the azapurin-6-one which would be favored by a high degree of hydrogen bonding.
