Phosphinic acid-based MMP-13 inhibitors that spare MMP-1 and MMP-3.

Phosphinic acid-based inhibitors of MMP-13 have been investigated with the aim of identifying potent inhibitors with high selectivity versus MMP-1. Independent variation of the substituents on a P(1)' phenethyl group and a P(2) benzyl group improved potencies in both cases around 3-fold over the unsubstituted parent. Combining improved P(1)' and P(2) groups into a single molecule gave an inhibitor with a 4.5 nM IC(50) against MMP-13 and which is 270-fold selective over MMP-1.

Determination of SQ 27,519, the active phosphinic acid-carboxylic acid of the prodrug SQ 28,555, in human serum by capillary gas chromatography with nitrogen-phosphorus detection after a two-step derivatization.

A method for the determination of SQ 27,519 (II), the active phosphinic acid-carboxylic acid of the prodrug SQ 28,555 (I), in human serum is presented. Compounds I and II are simultaneously extracted from acidified serum into ethyl acetate, and II is back-extracted into aqueous sodium bicarbonate. Compound I, in ethyl acetate, can be subsequently hydrolyzed and measured as II. The two acidic groups of II are selectively esterified, first by methylation of the carboxylic acid with methanolic hydrochloric acid and then by formation of the hexafluoroisopropyl ester of the phosphinic acid. The resulting product is measured by splitless-injection capillary gas chromatography with nitrogen-phosphorus detection. Linear standard curves were obtained for II with a detection limit of less than 10 ng/ml of serum. The method was successfully applied to the analysis of serum samples obtained from normal individuals after administration of I. In an ascending-dose study involving several human subjects the serum levels of II ranged from less than 10 to 7000 ng/ml of serum.

Electrophysiological characterization of potent agonists and antagonists at pre- and postsynaptic GABAB receptors on neurones in rat brain slices.

1. Intracellular recordings were made from neurons in striatum (caudate-putamen) and substantia nigra pars compacta in rat brain slices. Three GABAB agonists, baclofen, 3-aminopropylphosphinic acid (3-APPA) and 3-aminopropyl(methyl)phosphinic acid (SK&F 97541), depressed excitatory postsynaptic potentials (e.p.s.ps) mediated by glutamate in the striatum, and hyperpolarized neurones in the substantia nigra. The ability of 3-aminopropyl(diethyoxymethyl)phosphinic acid (CGP 35348), 3-aminopropyl (hexyl)phosphinic acid (3-APHPA) and phaclofen to antagonize these responses was assessed. 2. Striatal e.p.s.ps, studied in the presence of bicuculline (30 microns), were reduced in amplitude by 92% with 6,7-dinitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (DNQX; 30 microns). These e.p.s.ps were depressed by up to 95% by SK&F 97541 and baclofen with EC50s of 0.092 microns and 1.25 microns respectively. The maximal effect of 3-APPA was 67% with an EC50 of 0.83 microns. Agonist concentration-effect data fitted a single-site logistic model. GABAB agonists were without effect on striatal neurone membrane potential, input resistance or depolarizations induced by applied glutamate. 3. The depression of striatal e.p.s.ps by SK&F 97541 was reversibly antagonized by CGP 35348, 3-APHPA and phaclofen with estimated equilibrium dissociation constants (KB) of 11.2 +/- 1.7 microns (n = 4), 13.3 +/- 0.4 microM (n = 3) and 405 +/- 43 microM (n = 3) respectively. CGP 35348 and 3-APHPA appeared to act competitively (Schild plot slopes of 0.99 and 1.01 respectively). 4. Nigral neurones were hyperpolarized by up to 25 mV by SK&F 97541 and baclofen with EC50s of 0.15 microns and 3.6 microns respectively. The maximum hyperpolarization by 3-APPA was only 84% that of the other agonists, with an EC50 of 9.0 microM. Agonist concentration-effect data fitted a single-site logistic model. 5. The SK&F 97541-induced hyperpolarization was reversibly antagonized by CGP 35348, 3-APHPA and phaclofen with estimated KBS of 17.6 + 4.4 (n = 3), 14.0 + 1.5 (n = 4), and >400 microM (n = 1) respectively. CGP 35348 appeared competitive (Schild plot slope of 0.99). Antagonists were also tested with baclofen as agonist, yielding similar KB estimates as for SK&F 97541. 6. It is concluded that at both the presynaptic and postsynaptic sites examined, SK&F 97541 was about 10 fold more potent than baclofen or 3-APPA. The antagonists CGP 35348 and 3-APHPA (KB 1O-20 microM) were about 20 fold more potent than phaclofen. The similarities in relative agonist potency and estimated antagonist affinity between these two functionally distinct GABAB receptors renders them pharmacologically indistinguishable at present.

Palladium-catalyzed dehydrative allylation of hypophosphorous acid with allylic alcohols.

A novel palladium-catalyzed allylation of H3PO2 with allylic alcohols is described. The phosphorus-carbon bond-forming reaction produces allylic-H-phosphinic acids and water, in the absence of additives. Primary H-phosphinic acids are obtained in excellent yields, whereas secondary H-phosphinic acids react sluggishly. A reusable polymer-supported catalyst is also described. The reaction provides an environmentally sound approach to H-phosphinic acids.

Brønsted acid-catalyzed imine amidation.

A new method for the Brønsted acid-catalyzed addition of amide nucleophiles to imines to produce protected aminal products is described. Simple Brønsted acids (phenyl phosphinic acid and trifluoromethanesulfonimide) were shown to be excellent catalysts, providing high yields of the aminal product. A catalytic asymmetric imine amidation using sulfonamides as nucleophiles was successful when a hindered biaryl phosphoric acid catalyst derived from 2,2'-diphenyl-[3,3'-biphenanthrene]-4,4'-diol (VAPOL) was used. Excellent yields and enantioselectivities were found in these additions (up to 99% ee).

GABA(B) receptor inhibition causes locomotor stimulation in mice.

The present study investigated the effect of the administration of the GABA(B) receptor antagonists, SCH 50911 [(2S)(+)-5,5-dimethyl-2-morpholineacetic acid], CGP 46381 [(3-aminopropyl)(cyclohexylmethyl)phosphinic acid] and CGP 52432 (3-[[(3,4-dichlorophenyl)methyl]amino]propyl]diethoxymethyl)phosphinic acid), on spontaneous locomotor activity in mice. All drugs were acutely administered at the doses of 10 and 30 mg/kg (i.p.). The dose of 30 mg/kg of all drugs resulted in a significant stimulation of locomotor activity. The locomotor stimulation elicited by SCH 50911 was completely blocked by haloperidol (0.1 mg/kg, i.p.), suggesting that hyperactivity induced by blockade of the GABA(B) receptor is mediated by enhanced dopamine release. These results suggest the existence of a GABA(B) receptor-mediated tonic inhibition of dopamine neurons.

The GABA(B) antagonist CGP 52432 attenuates the stimulatory effect of the GABA(B) agonist SKF 97541 on luteinizing hormone secretion in the male sheep.

The objectives of this study were to determine if the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)(B) agonist, 3-aminopropyl (methyl) phosphinic acid (SKF97541), would increase luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion when infused by microdialysis into the medial basal hypothalamus (MBH) of the castrated ram, and to determine if the action of SKF97541 would be attenuated by co-infusion of the GABA(B) antagonist CGP52432. Initial experiments established that infusion of SKF alone, at concentrations as low as 5 microM, increased mean LH, LH pulse amplitude, and in some cases, pulse interval. In the last experiment, animals were treated with artificial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) alone, SKF alone (30 microM), 3-[[(3, 4-dichlorophenol) methyl] amino] propyl] diethoxymethyl) phosphinic acid (CGP) alone (500 microM), or SKF plus CGP. SKF increased both mean LH and LH pulse amplitude as compared with CSF. CGP alone had no significant effect on LH, but it attenuated the effect of SKF on mean LH. These observations indicate that the stimulatory effects of GABA(B) agonists on LH pulse patterns are mediated through GABA(B) receptors and provide further evidence that GABA(B) receptors located in the MBH can regulate pulsatile GnRH-LH release.

Characterization of the antiabsence effects of SCH 50911, a GABA-B receptor antagonist, in the lethargic mouse, gamma-hydroxybutyrate, and pentylenetetrazole models.

Recent studies have shown that gamma-aminobutyric acidB (GABAB) receptor antagonists suppress absence seizures in animal models. (+)-5,5-Dimethyl-2-morpholineacetic acid, hydrochloride (SCH 50911) is a new GABAB antagonist that is structurally dissimilar to previously studied GABAB antagonists such as 3-aminopropyl-diethoxymethyl-phosphinic acid (CGP 35348), 3-aminopropyl-n-butyl-phosphinic acid (CGP 36742) or 3-aminopropyl-cyclohexylmethyl-phosphinic acid (CGP 46381). In this study we measured the antiabsence effects of SCH 50911 in three animal models: the lethargic (lh/lh) mutant mouse, which has spontaneous absence seizures; and two rat models in which absence seizures were induced by administration of either gamma-hydroxybutyrate or pentylenetetrazole. SCH 50911 abolished seizures in all three models in a dose-dependent fashion (ID100 = 8-170 mumol/kg). In each model SCH 50911 was more potent (ID50 = 2-22 mumol/kg) than the following antiabsence compounds: the GABAB antagonist CGP 35348 (ID50 = 210-890 mumol/kg); ethosuximide (ID50 < or = 142-1240 mumol/kg); trimethadione (ID50 = 520-1100 mumol/kg); and valproic acid (ID50 = 900-2360 mumol/kg). SCH 50911 was equipotent with the GABAB antagonist CGP 46381 (ID50 = 20 mumol/kg) in the lh/lh mouse model. These findings suggest that antiabsence activity may be a defining feature of GABAB receptor antagonists and provide a rationale for pursuing clinical trials of GABAB receptor antagonists in human patients with absence seizures.

Comparative potencies of CGP 47654A and CGP 46165A as GABA(B) receptor antagonists in rat brain.

In rat neocortical slices maintained in Mg2+-free Krebs medium, the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABAB) receptor agonist baclofen concentration-dependently depressed the frequency of spontaneous discharges (EC50 = 6.1 microM). This was reversibly antagonised by 3-aminopropyl-(1,1-difluoro-n-butyl)-phosphinic acid (25, 100, 500 microM) (CGP 47654A) and 3-aminopropyl-P-(alpha-hydroxybenzyl)-phosphinic acid (CGP 46165A) (50, 100, 400 microM) which produced rightwards shifts of the baclofen concentration-response curves, with respective pA2 values of 4.9+/-0.2 and 4.6+/-0.15. Although relatively potent on GABAB heteroreceptors studied here, CGP 47654A and CGP 46165A were 5 and 50 times weaker, respectively, as GABAB autoreceptor antagonists [Froestl, W., Mickel, S.J., Von Sprecher, G., Diel, P.J., Hall, R.G., Maier, L., Strub, D., Melillo, V., Baumann, P.A., Bernasconi, R., Gentsch, C., Hauser, K., Jaekel, J., Karlsson, G., Klebs, K., Maitre, L., Marescaux, C., Pozza, M.F., Schmutz, M., Steinmann, M.W., Van Riezen, H., Vassout, A., Mondadori, C., Olpe, H.R., Waldmeier, P.C., Bittiger, H., 1995.

Palladium-phosphinous acid-catalyzed NaOH-promoted cross-coupling reactions of arylsiloxanes with aryl chlorides and bromides in water.

A palladium-phosphinous acid-catalyzed and NaOH-promoted coupling method using arylsiloxanes and aryl halides in water has been developed. The POPd1-catalyzed reaction between aryl chlorides or bromides and arylsiloxanes is compatible with various functional groups and affords biaryls in up to 99% yield. This cross-coupling reaction does not require additives such as surfactants or organic cosolvents and proceeds under air, which greatly facilitates operation and catalyst handling.

The action of new potent GABAB receptor antagonists in the hemisected spinal cord preparation of the rat.

CGP 52432 (3-N-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)aminopropyl-P-diethoxymethylphosphinic acid), CGP 54062 (3-N[1-(R,S)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]amino-2-(S)-hydroxypropyl-P-benzy l- phosphinic acid), CGP 54626 (3-N[[1-(S)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]amino-2-(S)- hydroxypropyl-P-cyclohexylmethylphosphinic acid) and CGP 55845 (3-N[1-(S)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)ethyl]amino-2-(S)- hydroxypropyl-P-benzyl-phosphinic acid) are novel selective GABAB receptor antagonist. The apparent Kd values for the complex formed between the GABAB receptor and these compounds were determined using the monosynaptic reflex in the hemisected rat spinal cord preparation in vitro. CGP 55845 was found to be the most potent GABAB receptor antagonist tested (apparent Kd = 30 nM). On the same preparation 0.3 microM CGP 55845 was equipotent with 100 microM of CGP 35348 (P-(3-aminopropyl)-P-diethoxymethyl-phosphinic acid) for reversal of the depressant action of (R)-(-)-baclofen.

Selective electroless metal deposition using microcontact printing of phosphine-phosphonic acid inks.

We report a low-cost approach to selectively deposit films of nickel and copper on glass substrates. Our approach uses microcontact printing of organic inks containing phosphonic acid groups to bind the ink to a glass substrate and phosphine groups to bind a colloidal catalyst that initiates electroless metallization. We demonstrate this procedure by fabricating patterned nickel and copper films with areas as large as 15 cm2 and minimum feature sizes of approximately 2 microm. We present studies on the use of two ink types, an oligomer and a bifunctional molecule, and demonstrate that pattern quality and adhesion of the metallized films depends on the molecular weight of the ink and the ratio of phosphine and phosphonic acid groups.

Effects of GABA(B) receptor antagonists on spontaneous and on GABA-induced mechanical activity of guinea-pig smooth muscle preparations.

The majority of GABA(B) receptor antagonists have been based on alterations of the acidic moiety of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) or baclofen, such as the first selective antagonist phaclofen. More recently, a new structural class of compounds derived by p-alkyl substitution in the phosphinic analog of GABA, such as CGP35348 (3-amino-propyl-(diethoxymethyl)-phosphinic acid), have been introduced as GABA(B) receptor antagonists. The present study examine the influence of a series of structurally related phosphinic acid analogues on mechanical activity and their effect on GABA-induced reactions in ileal smooth muscle. In our experiments, GABA exerted a biphasic contractile-relaxation effect with pronounced dose-dependent characteristics. 3-[[1-(S)-(3,4-Dihydrophenyl) ethyl]amino]-2-(S)-hydroxy-propyl]-(phenylmethyl)-phosphinic acid hydrochloride (CGP55845A) induced prolonged relaxation without changing the phasic activity of the ileum preparations. [3-[1-R-[[2-(S)-hydroxy-3-[hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl]-methyl]-phosphinyl]-propyl]-aminoethyl]-benzoic acid (CGP62349) did not change the mechanical activity of smooth muscle preparation. Trans 3-[6-[[Cyclo hexylmethyl-hydroxy-phosphinyl]-methyl]-3-morpholinyl]-benzoic acid (CGP71982) itself induced smooth muscle contractions. GABA(B) receptor antagonists decreased concentration-dependently the relaxation phase of the action of GABA from 50% to 90%. Their effect on the contractile phase of the action of GABA was quite different-CGP55845A decreased it dose-dependently, whereas CGP62349 and CGP71982 did not change it significantly. These findings prompted us to assume that the GABA(B) receptor antagonists studied, being phosphinic analogues, probably act on GABA(B) receptors in guinea-pig ileum smooth muscles.

Further evidence for prejunctional GABA-B inhibition of cholinergic and peptidergic bronchoconstriction in guinea pigs: studies with new agonists and antagonists.

We examined the effect of the potent and selective GABA-B agonists, baclofen, 3-aminopropylphosphinic acid (3-APPi) and 3-aminopropyl (methyl) phosphinic acid (SKF 97541), and the GABA-B antagonists, 3-aminopropyl (diethoxymethyl) phosphinic acid (CGP 35348), 2-hydroxysaclofen and 3-aminopropylphosphonic acid (3-APPA) on cholinergic and peptidergic contractile responses in the airways of guinea pigs. Electrical field stimulation of the isolated guinea pig trachea produced cholinergic contractions that were inhibited by baclofen (EC50 = 5 mumol/l), 3-APPi (EC50 = 0.3 mumol/l) and SKF 97541 (EC50 = 0.4 mumol/l). The inhibition by baclofen (30 mumol/l) was reduced by CGP 35348 (IC50 = 65 mumol/l), 2-hydroxysaclofen (IC50 = 273 mumol/l) and 3-APPA (IC50 = 355 mumol/l). The in vivo cholinergic bronchoconstrictor response to vagal nerve stimulation (5 V, 20 Hz, 0.5 ms for 5 s) was attenuated by intravenous baclofen (ED50 = 1.7 mg/kg), 3-APPi (ED50 = 0.9 mg/kg) and SKF 97541 (ED50 = 0.2 mg/kg). The inhibition of vagally induced bronchoconstriction by baclofen was blocked by CGP 35348 (1-10 mg/kg, i.v.) and 2-hydroxysaclofen (10 mg/kg, i.v.). A cholinergic bronchoconstriction induced by CNS stimulation (400 microA, 2 ms, 32 Hz for 5 s) was inhibited by baclofen (ED50 = 5.1 mg/kg, i.v.) and 3-APPi (ED50 = 0.6 mg/kg, i.v.). The effect of baclofen was attenuated by 3-APPA (5 mg/kg, i.v.). A peptidergic bronchoconstriction was evoked by intravenous nicotine (1 mg/kg) in animals treated with ipratropium and phosphoramidon.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Binding characteristics of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid as a weak but selective GABAB receptor agonist.

The aim of this study was to reexamine the concept that gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) is a weak but selective agonist at gamma-aminobutyric acidB (GABAB) receptors, using binding experiments with several radioligands. Ki values of GHB were similar (approximately equal to 100 microM) in three agonist radioligand assays for GABAB receptors, [3H]baclofen (beta-para-chlorophenyl-gamma-aminobutyric acid), [3H]CGP 27492 (3-aminopropyl-phosphinic acid) and [3H]GABA, in the presence of the GABAA receptor agonist isoguvacine with rat cortical, cerebellar and hippocampal membranes. In competition experiments between GHB and the GABAB receptor antagonist, [3H]CGP 54626 (3-N [1-{(S)-3,4-dichlorophenyl}-ethylamino]-2-(S)-hydroxypropyl cyclo-hexylmethyl phosphinic acid), the IC50 values were significantly increased with 300 microM of 5'-guanyl-imidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p), which suggested that guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G-proteins) modulate GHB binding on GABAB receptors. The inhibition by GHB of [3H]CGP 27492 binding in cortical membranes was not altered in the presence of 0.3 or 3 mM of the two GHB dehydrogenase inhibitors, valproate and ethosuximide. Thus, GHB is not reconverted into GABA by GHB dehydrogenase. Taken together, the results of this study demonstrated that GHB is an endogenous weak but selective agonist at GABAB receptors.
