ABSTRACT

A novel and convenient one-pot sequential cascade method for the preparation of 2-trifluoromethylquinazolin-4(3 H)-ones is described. Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) was employed as inexpensive and readily available CF3 source, which in the presence of T3P was condensed with a variety of anthranilic acids and amines to provide the products in up to 75% yield. The protocol was proved to be robust on 80 g scale, and the synthetic versatility of the prepared quinazolinon-4-ones was demonstrated by derivatization to further useful building blocks.

ABSTRACT

Starting from suvorexant (trade name Belsomra), we successfully identified interesting templates leading to potent dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs) via a scaffold-hopping approach. Structure-activity relationship optimization allowed us not only to improve the antagonistic potency on both orexin 1 and orexin 2 receptors (Ox1 and Ox2, respectively), but also to increase metabolic stability in human liver microsomes (HLM), decrease time-dependent inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4, and decrease P-glycoprotein (Pgp)-mediated efflux. Compound 80 c [{(1S,6R)-3-(6,7-difluoroquinoxalin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[4.2.0]octan-8-yl}(4-methyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-yl)methanone] is a potent and selective DORA that inhibits the stimulating effects of orexin peptides OXA and OXB at both Ox1 and Ox2. In calcium-release assays, 80 c was found to exhibit an insurmountable antagonistic profile at both Ox1 and Ox2, while displaying a sleep-promoting effect in rat and dog models, similar to that of the benchmark compound suvorexant.

ABSTRACT

[reaction: see text] The thiolysis of alpha,beta-epoxycarboxylic acids 1a-e by thiols 2a,b is more efficient in water than in dichloromethane or SFC. At pH 9.0 phenylthiolate generally attacks the C-alpha carbon while at pH 4.0, and in the presence of InCl3 (10 mol %), the thiolysis is exclusively C-beta regioselective. In all cases, the processes are completely anti-diasteroselective, and the corresponding products 3, 4, and 5 have been isolated in good yields. Both water and catalysts have been recovered and reused.

ABSTRACT

Under solvent-free conditions, thiosalicylic acid (2) efficiently self-promotes the thiolysis of 1,2-epoxides 1, anti-stereoselectively and generally totally beta-regioselectively. The resulting beta-hydroxysulfide products 3 have been obtained in very good yields. Benzo[e]1,4-oxathiepin-5-ones 4 have been easily prepared in a regio- and diasteroselective manner and in satisfactory yields under SFC by a one-pot protocol including nucleophilic ring opening of 1,2-epoxides 1 by thiosalicylic acid (2) and thermally induced lactonization of beta-hydroxy arylsulfides 3. Solvent-free condition and the absence of any catalyst make this procedure atom-economical and environmentally friendly.

ABSTRACT

Beta-Amino alcohols N-2'-pyridylmethyl substituted 3 have been prepared in excellent yields under mild conditions by the first Lewis acid-catalyzed aminolysis of 1,2-epoxides 1 with the bihaptic amine 2-picolylamine (2) with use of 5 mol % of Al(OTf)(3) under solvent-free conditions. As a representative of a new class of ionic liquids, cis-5-[(4'-methylphenyl)sulfonyl]-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,11a-octahydropyrido[1,2-a]quinoxalin-11-ium methanesulfonate (6) and its chloride derivative 7 have been synthesized under environmentally friendly conditions by the one-pot aminolysis of cyclohexene oxide (1a) with 2 and intramolecular cyclization of the resulting 2-[(pyridin-2'-yl)methylamino]cyclohexanol (3a).

ABSTRACT

Thiolysis of a variety of 1,2-epoxides in water at 30 degrees C and pH 7.0 is strongly accelerated by ZnCl(2) (10 mol %) except when amino- and carboxythiophenol are used. The aqueous medium and the catalyst were recovered and reused in various runs without affecting the efficiency of the process.
