Synthesis and antiallergy activity of N-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-4-aryl-1-piperazinecarboxamide derivatives.

A series of N-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-4-aryl-1-piperazinecarboxamides was synthesized and evaluated for antiallergy activity. Several derivatives had activity in the passive foot anaphylaxis (PFA) assay, an IgE-mediated model useful in the detection of compounds possessing antiallergic activity, but no derivative tested had activity at 10 mg/kg in the guinea pig anaphylaxis (GPA) assay. One analogue, N-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-4-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-piperazinecarboxamide , had an IC50 = 310 nM for inhibition of tritiated mepyramine binding to H1 histaminic receptors isolated from guinea pig cerebral cortex.

Conformationally restricted analogs of histamine H1 receptor antagonists: trans and cis-1-benzyl-3-dimethylamino-6-phenylpiperidine.

The syntheses of trans- and cis-1-benzyl-3-dimethylamino-6-phenylpiperidine (1 and 2) are described. Compounds 1 and 2 were found to be inhibitors to histamine, acetylcholine, and barium chloride induced contractions of the isolated guinea pig ileum. Compounds 1 and 2 do not exhibit appreciable stereoselectivity in their ability to inhibit smooth muscle contractions. The cis compound 2 is a more effective inhibitor of histamine N-methyltransferase than the trans isomer 1.

Chemistry and biological activities of N,N-dimethylaminoethyl acrylate, a choline acetyltransferase inhibitor.

N,N-Dimethylaminoethyl acrylate (acryl-DMA) was synthesized as a tertiary nitrogen choline acetyltransferase (ChAc) inhibitor which would be able to penetrate biological membranes to inhibit ChAc in the nerve terminal. The synthesis from dimethylaminoethanol and acrylyl chloride was described and the hydration with times in an aqueous medium measured by NMR spectroscopy was presented. The autohydrolysis in water was found to be 1.75 x 10(-8) mol/min at pH 7.4 and 5.0 mM concentration. The enzymatic hydrolysis was unaffected by cholinesterases. Acryl-DMA was capable of inhibiting ChAc extracted from rat brain with I50 of 5.02 x 10(-4) M. The inhibition was reversible and displayed uncompetitive kinetics with respect to both substrates, choline and acetyl-CoA. Neither the hydrolysis nor the hydration products of acryl-DMA could inhibit ChAc. Although acryl-DMA was hydrated rapidly and completely within 1 hr at high pH (9.0), the time course of inhibition ability of acryl-DMA in aqueous medium at physiological pH was found to decrease rather slowly and by 36% in 1 hr, indicating that acryl-DMA can survive from hydration at physiological pH. Acryl-DMA was also tested for its ability to block electrically induced muscle contractions in both isolated skeletal and smooth nerve-muscle preparations. The ED50's obtained were less than 5 x 10(-4) M in both cases.

Resolution, absolute configuration, and cholinergic enantioselectivity of (-)- and (+)-c-2-methyl-r-5-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-1,3-oxathiolane t-3-oxide methiodide and related sulfones.

As a continuation of previous studies on chiral cholinergic agonists carrying a 1,3-oxathiolane nucleus, the enantiomers of c-2-methyl-r-5-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-1,3-oxathiolane t-3-oxide methiodide ((+)- and (-)-1) and of cis-2-methyl-5-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-1,3-oxathiolane 3,3-dioxide ((+)- and (-)-2) were obtained and their absolute configurations established by synthesis. The cholinergic potency of the four isomers was evaluated in vitro on guinea pig ileum and frog rectus abdominis models, and the results show that (-)-1, which has the same absolute configuration as L-(+)-muscarine, is a selective and potent muscarinic agent. The (+)-1 enantiomer is some hundred times less potent than (-)-1 on the muscarinic guinea pig ileum while, on the same tissue, the corresponding sulfone derivatives ((+)- and (-)-2) show no enantioselectivity.

6-(alkylamino)-9-alkylpurines. A new class of potential antipsychotic agents.

A series of 6-(alkylamino)-9-alkylpurines was synthesized and evaluated for the property of antagonizing the behavioral effects in animals of the dopamine agonist apomorphine. This model for identifying potential antipsychotic agents is based on the hypothesis that agents that antagonize apomorphine-induced aggressive behavior in rats and apomorphine-induced climbing in mice, but that do not block stereotyped behavior, could have an antipsychotic effect in humans without producing extrapyramidal side effects. The antiaggressive-behavior activity of lead compound 1 (6-(dimethylamino)-9-(3-phenylalaninamidobenzyl)-9H-purine) was improved 48-fold with 6-(cyclopropylamino)-9-(cyclopropylmethyl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)-9H- purine (80) (po ED50 of 2 mg/kg), which was obtained through an iterative sequence of structure--activity relationship studies that encompassed evaluation of the effects of structure variations at the purine 9-, 6-, and 2-positions. Potency was enhanced with a 9-cyclopropyl group, the duration of action was improved with the 6-(cyclopropylamino) substituent, potency was further enhanced with an N-formyl prodrug, and an agent with reduced cardiovascular effect emerged with the 2-trifluoromethyl purine 80. This potential antipsychotic agent was not developed further due to undesirable effects on the stomach.

Novel 5-dimethylamino-1- and 2-indanyl uracil derivatives.

5-Dimethylamino-1-aminoindan undergoes thermal decomposition and reacts with 6-chlorouracil to give 5-indanyl-6-chlorouracil derivative 9. The formation of 9 may be rationalized by a putative mechanism based on the intermediacy of the imminium methide species 8a.

The effect of low-temperature dynamics of the dimethylammonium group in [(CH3)2NH2]3Sb2Cl9 on proton spin-lattice relaxation and narrowing of the proton NMR line.

This paper reports the temperature dependence of the relaxation time T1 (55.2 and 90 MHz) and the second moment of the NMR line for protons in a polycrystalline sample of [NH2(CH3)2]3Sb2Cl9 (DMACA). The fundamental aspects of molecular dynamics from quantum tunneling at low temperatures to thermally activated reorientation at elevated temperatures have been studied. The experimentally observed spin-lattice relaxation rate is a consequence of dipolar interactions between the spin pairs inside the methyl group (1/T(1AE) contribution) as well as the spins belonging to neighboring methyl groups and pairs, methyl spin-outer methyl spin (1/T(1EE) contribution). These contributions are considered separately. Two methyl groups in the dimethylammonium (DMA) cations are dynamically inequivalent. The values of the tunnel splitting of separate methyl groups are obtained from the T1 (55.2 MHz) experiment. The tunneling dynamics taking place below the characteristic temperatures 74 and 42 K for separate methyl groups are discussed in terms of the Schrödinger equation. These temperatures point to the one at which thermal energy C(p)T and potential barrier take the same value. It is established that the second moment of the proton NMR line below 74 K up to liquid helium temperature is much lower than the rigid lattice value, which is due to a tunneling stochastic process of the methyl groups.

Solvation dynamics of DCM in a polypeptide-surfactant aggregate: gelatin-sodium dodecyl sulfate.

Solvation dynamics of 4-(dicyanomethylidene)-2-[p-(dimethylamino)styryl]-6-methyl-4H-pyran (DCM) is studied in a polypeptide-surfactant aggregate consisting of gelatin and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KP) buffer. The average solvation time (tauS) in gelatin-SDS aggregate at 45 degrees C is found to be 1780 ps, which is about 13 times slower than that in 15 mM SDS in KP buffer at the same temperature. The fluorescence anisotropy decay in gelatin-SDS aggregate is also different from that in SDS micelles in KP buffer. DCM displays negligible emission in the presence of gelatin in aqueous solution. Thus the solvation dynamics in the presence of gelatin and SDS is exclusively due to the probe (DCM) molecules at the gelatin-micelle interface. The slow solvation dynamics is ascribed to the restrictions imposed on the water molecules trapped between the polypeptide chain and micellar aggregates. The critical association concentration (cac) of SDS for gelatin is determined to be 0.5 +/- 0.1 mM.

A one-flask synthesis of Weinreb amides from chiral and achiral carboxylic acids using the deoxo-fluor fluorinating reagent.

[structure] The reagent [bis(2-methoxyethyl)amino]sulfur trifluoride (Deoxo-Fluor reagent) converts carboxylic acids to the corresponding acid fluorides, which then react with N,N-dimethylhydroxylamine to give the corresponding Weinreb amides in high yields. The reaction proceeds without racemization when optically active acids are used as the starting material. This method is operationally simple and provides the products in high purity.
