A new procedure for labeling alkylbenzenes with [18F]fluoride.

A new procedure for labeling alkylbenzenes with no-carrier-added (nca) [18F]fluoride is reported. This will allow the use of [18F]-for-nitro aromatic nucleophilic displacement reaction for labeling aromatic compounds with no activating groups on the benzene ring. The new procedure involves (A) the [18F]-for-nitro displacement reaction on nitrophenones, and (B) the reduction of [18F]fluorophenones with triethylsilane and trifluoroacetic acid to alkylfluorobenzenes. The desired 18F-labeled alkylbenzenes were prepared in a synthesis time of 1 h with a radiochemical yield of 20% at end-of-synthesis. The procedure has been successfully applied to the synthesis of 18F-labeled alkylating agents, such as 4-[18F]fluorophenethyl bromide, 4, and 4-[18F]fluorophenbutyl chloride, 5. Using the reaction of piperidine and 4 as a model, the potential use of phenethylbromide 4 for labeling biologically important amines was examined. Initial results indicated that the desired alkylated piperidine was formed in low yields (less than 5%) due to the conversion of halide 4 to [18F]fluorostyrene (greater than 85%) under basic conditions. The new procedure provides an easy method of labeling alkylbenzenes with fluorine-18.

Brain nuclear DNA survives cardiac arrest and reperfusion.

Iron-mediated peroxidation of brain lipids is known to occur during reperfusion following cardiac arrest. Since in vitro damage to DNA is caused by similar iron-dependent peroxidation, we tested whether free radical damage to genomic DNA also develops during reperfusion following cardiac arrest and resuscitation. Genomic DNA was isolated from the cerebral cortex in (i) normal dogs, (ii) dogs subjected to a 20-min cardiac arrest, and (iii) dogs resuscitated from a 20-min cardiac arrest and then allowed to reperfuse for 2 or 8 h. DNA strand nicks were evaluated by in vitro labeling of newly created 3' and 5' termini. DNA base damage was evaluated utilizing reaction with piperidine prior to labeling of 5' termini. The 3' DNA termini were labeled before and after digestion with exonuclease III, and the 5' DNA termini were labeled before and after treatment with piperidine. In vitro experiments with genomic DNA damaged by oxygen radicals verified that these labeling methods identified radical damage. In the experimental animal groups, terminal incorporation and electrophoretic mobility of brain nuclear DNA are not significantly changed either by 20 min of complete brain ischemia or during the first 8 h of reperfusion. We conclude that genomic DNA is not extensively damaged during cardiac arrest and early reperfusion, and therefore such DNA damage does not appear to be an important early aspect of the neurologic injury that accompanies cardiac arrest and resuscitation.

Inhibition of PAF-induced human platelet aggregation by antithrombotic nipecotomides.

Nipecotamides (piperidine-3-carboxamides) are potent inhibitors of platelet aggregation induced by a variety of agonists in vitro and in vivo. The inhibitory effects of six structural types of nipecotamides on human platelet aggregation induced by platelet-activating factor (PAF) in vitro, are studied. Evaluation of 15 racemates and stereoisomers of two nipecotamides showed that bis-nipecotoyl alkanes were more active than their mono congeners. Mono- and bis-nipecotoyl decanes were more potent than the corresponding hexanes. Lipophilicity was found to play a significant role in the antiplatelet activity of these compounds. The stereoselectivity in the PAF-antagonist potential of nipecotamides was less pronounced than that resulting from their action on ADP- or collagen-induced aggregation. Oxidation of the two benzylic carbon atoms of alpha, alpha'-bis[3-(N,N-diethylcarbamoyl)piperidino]-p-xylene.2HBr (A-1) to form 1,4-bis[3-N,N-diethylcarbamoyl) piperidino]benzenedicarboxamide (A-40K), which has a second set of carbonyl oxygens but lacks basic N atoms, resulted in a remarkable loss of ADP-antagonist potency while retaining PAF-antagonist activity. It is suggested that in addition to their membrane effects, nipecotamides act at other sites, including the PAF receptor. Double reciprocal plots of PAF binding to gel-filtered platelets (GFP) in the presence and absence of a typical nipecotamide (A-1C) were indicative of competitive inhibition (Ki = 19.28 microM). Scatchard analysis of 3H-PAF binding to GFP suggested the presence of high, intermediate (I) and low affinity binding sites, of which the I site gave a KD/app of 0.332 nM with an estimated 564 sites/platelet. Key interactions of nipecotamides with the PAF receptor appear to be the following (i) electrostatic interactions of the two amide oxygens with a primary set of electropositive areas spaced at 5-7 A, (ii) in the case of appropriate compounds, electrostatic interactions of the two amide oxygens spaced at 10-12 A with corresponding secondary receptor sites carrying positive electrostatic potential, (iii) a hydrophobic moiety fitting into a hydrophobic pocket in the receptor, and (iv) the cationic piperidine N+ (at pH 7.4) interacting with a counterion, probably aspartic acid.

A-ring bridged steroids as potent inhibitors of aromatase.

The design and syntheses of androstenedione derivatives with bridges spanning the 2,19-, 3,19-, 4,19- and 6, 19-positions are described. 2,19-Bridged compounds bearing hydroxyl groups on the two-carbon bridge (3a and 3b) were designed as stable carbon analogs of potential lactol intermediates in the enzymatic conversion of androgens to estrogens. Compounds 3a and 3b are competitive inhibitors of aromatase. Pyran 25 is a potent, time-dependent inhibitor of aromatase with partial NADPH dependence. These data suggest a mechanism of inhibition for 25 which involves both tight-binding competitive and mechanism-based components, with the former predominating. The sulfur, amino, and all carbon analogs of pyran 25 were prepared. Thiopyran 36, piperidine 42 and the all-carbon analog 47 are also time-dependent inhibitors of aromatase. Compound 47 is the most potent inhibitor and its time-dependent inhibition is not NADPH dependent. The kinetics of piperidine 42 suggest uncompetitive inhibition.

Synthesis, characterization and biodistribution of neutral and lipid-soluble 99mTc-bisaminoethanethiol spiperone derivatives: possible ligands for receptor imaging with SPECT.

Using parts of the molecular structure of spiperone, two new ligand systems for complexation with [99mTc]technetium were prepared in order to develop potential receptor imaging agents for single photon emission computer tomography (SPECT). The bis-aminoethanethiols (BAT): 1-benzyl-4-(2-mercapto-2-methyl-4-aza-pentyl)-4-(2-mercapto-2-methyl- propylamino)-piperidine (benzylpiperidyl-BAT, BP-BAT) and 1-[3-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-propyl]-4-(2-mercapto-2-methyl-4-aza-pentyl)-4- (2-mercapto-2-methyl-propyl-amino)-piperidine (butyrophenoylpiperidyl-BAT, BUP-BAT) form stable, neutral and lipid soluble complexes with [99mTc]technetium at pH > or = 11 using SnCl2 as reducing agent in nearly quantitative radiochemical yields. Biodistribution of 99mTc-BP-BAT and 99mTc-BUP-BAT in rats showed a moderate clearance from blood and low uptake and retention in the liver, whereas brain uptake was moderate, however with prolonged brain retention. On the other hand, significant accumulations and retentions were observed in heart, kidney and lung with increasing oxygen/blood ratios up to 24 h. Within 24 h p.i. 22 and 29% of the injected dose (i.d.) of 99mTc-BP-BAT and 99mTc-BUP-BAT were eliminated by hepatobiliary excretion whereas 22% i.d. of both 99mTc-BAT complexes were excreted into the urine. Although first biodistribution studies of 99mTc-BP-BAT and 99mTc-BUP-BAT in rats showed relatively low brain uptake, the high uptake in peripheral, receptor rich organs indicates that compounds of this type may be used as a basis for further structural modification to develop agents with optimal properties for cerebral or peripheral receptor imaging with SPECT.

Synthesis and evaluation of phenylcarbamate derivatives as ligands for nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.

Phenylcarbamate derivatives were synthesized and evaluated in radioligand binding assays for different nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subtypes. Carbamate derivatives bearing a pyrrolidine or piperidine moiety 8-20 exhibited much lower affinity for alpha7* nAChR than the analogues in the quinuclidine series 21-25, although the same structural elements are present. Furthermore, in contrast to the quinuclidine analogues 21-25, all (S)-pyrrolidine derivatives 8-12 and the piperidine analogues 15 and 16 exhibited higher affinities for alpha4beta2* nAChR.

Combination of structural elements from a potent Y5 antagonist (2) with thiazole fragments that exhibit weak Y5 affinities followed by lead optimisation led to the discovery of (5,6-dihydro-4H-3-thia-1-aza-benzo[e]azulen-2-yl)-piperidin-4-ylmethyl-amino and (4,5-dihydro-6-oxa-3-thia-1-aza-benzo[e]azulen-2-yl)-piperidin-4-ylmethyl-amino derivatives. Both classes of compounds are capable of delivering potent and selective orally and centrally bioavailable NPY Y5 receptor antagonists.

Conformationally constrained N1-arylsulfonyltryptamine derivatives as 5-HT6 receptor antagonists.

Several series of conformationally constrained N1-arylsulfonyltryptamine derivatives were prepared and tested for 5-HT6 receptor binding affinity and ability to modulate cAMP production in a cyclase assay. The 3-piperidin-3-yl-, 3-(1-methylpyrrolidin-2-ylmethyl)-, and 3-pyrrolidin-3-yl-1H-indole arrays (8-13) appear to be able to adopt a conformation that allows high affinity 5-HT6 receptor binding, while the beta-carboline array 14 binds with a significantly weaker (10- to 100-fold) affinity. N1-Benzenesulfonyl-3-piperidin-3-yl-1H-indole 9a is a high affinity full agonist with EC50 = 24 nM. Several of the N1-arylsulfonyl-3-(1-methylpyrrolidin-2-ylmethyl)-1H-indole derivatives behave as very potent antagonists ((S)-11r, (S)-11t; IC50 = 0.8, 1.0 nM).

Preparation of 3-spirocyclic indolin-2-ones as ligands for the ORL-1 receptor.

A novel series of indolin-2-ones having a spirocyclic piperidine ring at the 3-position was synthesized and found to bind with high affinity to the ORL-1 receptor. Structure-activity relationships at the piperidine nitrogen were investigated. Substitution on the phenyl ring and nitrogen atom of the indolin-2-one core generated several selective high-affinity ligands that were antagonists of the ORL-1 receptor.

Enhanced FTase activity achieved via piperazine interaction with catalytic zinc.

Benzocycloheptapyridine tricyclic compounds with piperazine or substituted piperidine moieties extending either from the 5- or 6-position of the tricyclic bridgehead exhibited enhanced FTase activity: this resulted from favorable binding of the ligand nitrogen with the catalytic zinc found in the FTase. A single isomer at C-11 with piperazine adduct extending from the 6-position, compound 24, exhibited excellent FTase activity with IC50 = 0.007 microM, soft agar IC50 = 72 nM, and Rat AUC(PO, 10 mpk) = 4.0 microM x h. X-ray of (-)-[8-chloro-6-(1-piperazinyl)-1H-benzo[5,6]]cyclohepta[1,2-b]pyridine-11-yl]-1-(methylsulfonyl)piperidine 24 bound to Ftase revealed favorable interaction between piperazine nitrogen and catalytic zinc atom.

Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of N-substituted aza-trozamicol analogs as vesicular acetylcholine transporter ligands.

As dysfunction of cerebral cholinergic neurotransmission is one of the main features in patients with Alzheimer's disease, in vivo imaging of the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) can be of great value for the early diagnosis of this disease. Two series of positional isomers of m-iodobenzyltrozamicol (MIBT): 3-hydroxy-4-(N-phenylpiperazinyl)piperidine and 4-hydroxy-3-(N-phenylpiperazinyl)piperidine substituted by benzyl, aryl, alkyl or vinyl groups at the nitrogen have been synthesized. These compounds have been evaluated in vitro by competition studies and five compounds (N-benzyl derivatives) showed high affinity for the VAChT (11nM<IC(50)<66nM). These compounds will be soon radiolabeled with [(125)I] for further biological evaluation using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).

4-Amino-2-alkyl-butyramides as small molecule CCR2 antagonists with favorable pharmacokinetic properties.

A systematic examination of the central aromatic portion of the lead (2S)-N-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(1'H-spiro[indene-1,4'-piperidin]-1'-yl)butanamide (9) led to the discovery of a novel class of CCR2 receptor antagonists, which carry small alicyclic groups such as cyclopropyl, cylobutyl, or cyclopropylmethyl attached at C2 of the carbon backbone. The most potent compound discovered, namely (2S)-N-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-2-cyclopropyl-4-[(1R,3'R)-3'-methyl-1'H-spiro[indene-1,4'-piperidin]-1'-yl]butanamide (29), showed very high binding affinity (IC50 = 4 nM, human monocyte) and excellent selectivity toward other related chemokine receptors. The excellent pharmacokinetic profile of this new lead compound allows for extensive in vivo evaluation.

Restoration of middle cerebral artery thrombosis by novel glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonist FK419 in guinea pig.

We compared the antithrombotic efficacy of FK419 [(S)-2-acetylamino-3-[(R)-[1-[3-(piperidin-4-yl)propionyl]piperidin-3-ylcarbonyl]amino] propionic acid trihydrate], a novel nonpeptide glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonist, with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) and other antithrombotic agents (aspirin, ozagrel, argatroban and heparin). FK419 not only inhibited ADP- and collagen-induced guinea pig platelet aggregation, but also induced disaggregation for ADP-induced aggregated platelets in vitro. In the photochemically induced middle cerebral artery thrombosis model in guinea pigs, FK419 dose-dependently shortened the time to first reperfusion and the total middle cerebral artery occlusion time and reduced ischemic brain damage and ameliorated neurological deficits measured 24 h after middle cerebral artery occlusion. Rt-PA similarly improved the middle cerebral artery patency, brain damage and neurological deficits. Neither aspirin, ozagrel, argatroban nor heparin restored the middle cerebral artery blood flow and improved the brain damage or neurological deficits. These results demonstrated that novel glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonist FK419 could disperse thrombus and ameliorated ischemic brain damage, suggesting that FK419 would be an attractive intervention for stroke patients.

Lipophilicity-related inhibition of blood platelet aggregation by nipecotic acid anilides.

Using N-[4-(hexyloxy)phenyl]piperidine-3-carboxamide (17c) as a structural lead, a number of isomers, derivatives, and ring-opened analogs were synthesized and tested for their ability to block the in vitro aggregation of human platelets induced by adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP). For the most active compounds, inhibition of the platelet aggregation triggered by arachidonic acid (AA) and ADP-induced intraplatelet calcium mobilization was also demonstrated. Based on quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs), we proved the impact of hydrophobicity on antiplatelet activity by a nonlinear (parabolic or bilinear) relationship between pIC(50) and lipophilicity, as assessed by RP-HPLC capacity factors and ClogP (i.e. calculated 1-octanol-water partition coefficients). This study highlighted the following additional SARs: quasi-isolipophilic isomers of 17c (isonipecotanilides and pipecolinanilides) and ring-opened analogs (e.g. anilide of beta-alanine) exhibited lower antiplatelet activity; methylation of the piperidine nitrogen of 17c has no effect, whereas alkylation with an n-propyl group decreases the activity by a factor of approximately 2, most likely due to a conformation-dependent decrease in lipophilicity.

Tertiary selenoamide compounds are useful superoxide radical scavengers in vitro.

We investigated the scavenging effects of tertiary selenoamide compounds for super oxide radicals using a highly sensitive and quantitative chemiluminescence method. At 333 nM, tertiary selenoamide compounds scavenged 25.8-81.6% of O(2)(-). N-(Phenylselenocarbonyl) piperidine was the most effective scavenger of superoxide radicals. While N,N-diethyl-2-selenonaphthylamide and N,N-diethyl-4-chloroselenobenzamide was a moderately effective scavenger of superoxide radicals. The IC(50) of N-(phenylselenocarbonyl) piperidine and N,N-diethyl-2-selenonaphthylamide were determined to be 110 and 182 nM, respectively. The results suggest that tertiary selenoamide compounds are useful scavengers of superoxide radicals.

The role of antagonism of NMDA receptor-mediated neurotransmission and inhibition of the dopamine reuptake in the neuroendocrine effects of phencyclidine.

Phencyclidine (PCP) activates the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and decreases plasma prolactin levels in the rat. PCP is a noncompetitive N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, but it also inhibits the reuptake of dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine. The purpose of the present study was to utilize the PCP analogue N-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine; (TCP), the potent dopamine reuptake inhibitor N-[1-(2-benzo(b)thiophenyl) cyclohexyl]piperidine; (BTCP) and the nonselective monoamine reuptake inhibitor cocaine as pharmacologic probes in order to determine the roles of noncompetitive NMDA receptor blockade and inhibition of dopamine reuptake in the neuroendocrine effects of PCP. PCP, TCP and cocaine increased plasma levels of adrenocorticotropin and corticosterone, but BTCP had no effect. In contrast, PCP, BTCP and cocaine decreased plasma prolactin, but TCP produced no such effect. The data suggest that mechanisms besides inhibition of dopamine reuptake are involved in the effects of PCP on the HPA axis, and the PCP-induced decrease in plasma prolactin is not a consequence of inhibition of NMDA receptor-mediated neurotransmission.
