The characteristics of I-125 4-IQNB and H-3 QNB in vivo and in vitro.

The accumulation of (R)-(H-3)-3-quinuclidinyl benzilate (H-3 QNB) and (R,S)-1-azabicyclo(2.2.2)oct-3-yl (R,S)-alpha-hydroxy-(4-[I-125]iodophenyl) benzeneacetate (I-125 4- IQNB ) in heart, caudate/putamen, and cerebellum of rats was determined at intervals from 15 min to 4 hr after injection. The behavior of the two radiotracers in the heart is consistent with in vitro results with respect to affinities and specificities. In the brain, however, the compounds differ in tissue selectivity. At high specific activity, neither compound provides localization that is consistent with the concentration of receptor in the tissues. The results of this study do not indicate quantification of receptor concentration by means of single external images.

Acute, subchronic and chronic toxicity of the new angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor ramipril.

Acute, subchronic and chronic toxicity studies of 2-[N-[(S)-1-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl]-L-alanyl]-(1S, 3S, 5S)-2-azabicyclo[3.3.0]octane-3-carboxylic acid (ramipril, Hoe 498) were conducted in mice, rats, dogs and monkeys. The acute toxicity in mice, rats, and dogs after oral and intravenous administration is very low. There were no significant differences in LD50 values between male and female animals. Treatment periods up to 6 months in rats and monkeys and up to 12 months in dogs revealed consistent compound-related effects with respect to the kidneys and the hemopoietic system probably due to exaggerated pharmacological activity. Species-specific lesions in the gastric fundal mucosa were noted exclusively in rats. No adverse effects were seen at doses of 0.25 mg/kg/d in rats, 2.5 mg/kg/d in dogs, and 0.5 mg/kg/d in monkeys. It is concluded that ramipril can be safely used in humans.

Comparison of cefazedone with cefazolin and cephalothin in treatment of experimental infections in mice.

The chemotherapeutic efficacy of (6R,7R)-7-(2-[3,5-dichloro-4-oxo-1(4H)-pyridyl]-acetamido)-3-([(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-thio)-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4,2,0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid (cefazedone, Refosporen) was assayed in comparison to cefazolin and cephalothin in experimental bacterial murine infections with 6 gram-positive and 8 gram-negative strains of the genera Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Pneumococcus, Escherichia, Klebsiella, Proteus, Pasteurella and Salmonella. In 5 out of 14 strains (Staphylococci, Streptococci, E. coli, Klebsiella) cefazedone was markedly superior to cefazolin, whereas both compounds were of similar activity against the remaining 9 isolates. As compared to cephalothin, cefazedone exhibited highly superior effectiveness in all organisms tested.

Synthesis and dopamine transporter affinity of 2-(methoxycarbonyl)-9-methyl-3-phenyl-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives.

A series of 9-methyl-3 beta-phenyl-2-substituted-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as cocaine-binding site ligands at the dopamine transporter (DAT). The conformation of the bicyclic structures and the stereochemistry of the substituents were determined by NMR and X-ray crystallography. The in vitro binding affinity (Ki) of the 9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives was measured in rat caudate-putamen tissue, and they were found to be 100-fold (Ki = 2-14 microM) less potent than cocaine and other tropane analogs. From these results it is evident that the cocaine-binding site at the DAT is very sensitive to structural modifications of the unsubstituted methylene bridge [C(6)-C(7)] of cocaine and cocaine-like compounds.

A new synthesis of 2-azabicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes.

An efficient synthesis of the 2-azabicyclo[2.1.1]hexane ring system has been accomplished starting from cis-cyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride 7, which was prepared using a photochemical method. The key step of this new strategy involved a stereoselective electrophilic addition of phenylselenyl bromide to the double bond of cyclobutene dicarbamate 16 derived from 7. The subsequent ring closure of 17a in the presence of sodium hydride afforded the 2-azabicyclohexane compound 18 with a satisfying overall yield. Reductive removal of the phenylselenyl group and subsequent deprotection led rapidly to the amino derivative 4a functionalized on the carbon ring. Syntheses of the hydroxy and carboxylic derivatives 4b,c were then achieved from the intermediary disulfonamide 23. Displacement of the activated amino group by potassium acetate yielded hydroxy derivative 4b after three additional steps. Finally, oxidation of the alcohol function of 4b under Jones conditions followed by hydrogenolysis afforded the carboxylic derivative 4c, which is the first reported beta-isomer of 2,4-methanoproline 1.

Effects of 5-HT4 receptor antagonists on rat behaviour in the elevated plus-maze test.

The anxiolytic-like effects of a variety of 5-HT receptor agonists and antagonists have been intensively studied in animal models. However, no direct effects of agents modulating 5-HT4 receptors have been reported, in spite of their suggestive location in the brain. The objective of the present study was the determination of the effects of two selective 5-HT4 receptor antagonists, SB 204070 [1-butyl-4-piperidinylmethyl)-8-amino-7-chloro-1,4-benzodioxan-5-carboxylate] and GR 113808 [[1-[2-methylsulphonyl)amino]ethyl]-4-piperidinyl]methyl 1-methyl-1 H-indole-3-carboxylate], in the elevated plus-maze test in rats. Results have shown that both 5-HT4 receptor antagonists exhibit an anxiolytic-like profile, although only at the dose of 1.0 mg/kg (s.c.). At this dose, both compounds significantly increased the percentage of time spent in open arms exploration, while other variables evaluated remained unaffected at the dose range tested. Results suggest that 5-HT4 receptor antagonists could have some anxiolytic-like properties, although their effects seem more limited and less consistent than those presented by classic anxiolytics, such as diazepam. However, they are similar to those exhibited by granisetron [endo-1-methyl-N-(9-methyl-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-yl)-1 H-indazole-3-carboxamide], a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist.

C(8)-substituted 1-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-enes: a novel scaffold for muscarinic receptor ligands.

The [3.3.1]-bicyclic amine, exo-8-benzyloxymethyl-3-ethoxycarbonyl-4-hydroxy-1-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-ene (1), has been shown to be a potent competitive antagonist against the hM(1)-hM(5) muscarinic receptors. This heterocyclic system has not been extensively evaluated despite the notable activities reported for other bicyclic amines. Synthetic strategies permitted the selective alteration of five structural sites in 1. Pharmacological evaluation demonstrated that modification of either the C(3) alkoxycarbonyl or the C(4) enol units in 1 gave compounds with high affinity for the hM(1)-hM(5) muscarinic receptors with selectivity for the hM(2) receptor.

5-HT7 receptor-mediated relaxation of the oviduct in nonpregnant proestrus pigs.

The effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on the muscle tonus of the ampulla and isthmus of the oviduct isolated from nonpregnant proestrus pigs were investigated, and the 5-HT receptor subtype and mechanisms of the responses were analyzed. 5-HT (1 nM-10 microM) caused a relaxation of longitudinal and circular muscles of the isthmus in a concentration-dependent manner. Tetrodotoxin did not change the relaxation, indicating a direct action of 5-HT on smooth muscle cells. The EC(50) value in the longitudinal muscle was significantly lower than that in the circular muscle but the maximum relaxations were similar. 5-HT also caused a relaxation of both muscle layers in the ampulla but the maximum relaxation of both muscles was smaller than that of the isthmus. 5-Carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT), 5-methoxytryptamine (5-MeOT) and (+/-)-8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) mimicked the relaxation of the isthmic longitudinal muscle by 5-HT, and the ranking order was 5-CT>5-HT>5-MeOT>8-OH-DPAT. On the other hand, oxymethazoline, 2-methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine (2-methyl-5-HT), alpha-methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine (alpha-methyl-5-HT), [endo-N-8-methyl-8-azabicyclo-(3,2,1) oct-3-yl]-2,3-dihydro-3-ethyl-2-oxo-1H-benzimidazol-1-carboxamide (BIMU-1), ergotamine and dihydroergotamine were less effective. The relaxation by 5-HT was not decreased by ketanserin, 2-methoxy-4-amino-5-chlorobenzoic acid 2-(diethylamino)ethyl ester (tropisetron) or [1[2-(methylsulphonyl) amino ethyl]-4-piperidinyl]methyl-1-methyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylate (GR113808) but was antagonized by the following compounds in a competitive manner (with pK(b) values in parentheses): 2a-[4-(4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridyl)butyl]-2a,3,4,5-tetrahydro-benzo[cd]indol-2(1H)-one (DR4004, 9.31), methiothepin (8.91), methysergide (7.95), metergoline (7.98), mianserin (7.69), mesulergine (8.4), spiperone (6.86) and clozapine (7.4). The correlation of these pK(b) values with pK(i) values of cloned 5-HT(7) receptor or pA(2) values of porcine uterus was high and significant. 4-(3-Butoxy-4-methoxybenzyl)-imidazolidin-2-one (Ro20-1724) significantly enhanced the relaxation by 5-HT but zaprinast, 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) and L-nitroarginine methylester (L-NAME) did not change the responses to 5-HT. 5-HT increased cyclic AMP in the isthmic oviduct. Ampulla and isthmus contained a single class of [3H]5-CT binding sites with a similar K(d) value (0.4 nM), but the density of the receptors in the isthmus was 2.4 times higher than that in the ampulla. A significant correlation was found between the pK(i) values in the oviduct and those of the cloned 5-HT(7) receptors. Isoprenaline, sodium nitroprusside, vasoactive intestinal peptide and pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide were less effective in causing the relaxation of the oviduct. In conclusion, the 5-HT receptor, functionally correlated to the 5-HT(7) type, mediates the relaxation of the porcine oviduct by 5-HT through an increase in intracellular cyclic AMP. The degrees of 5-HT-induced relaxation in the isthmus and ampulla of the oviduct were different due to the heterogeneous distribution of 5-HT(7) receptors. The strongest relaxation through 5-HT(7) receptor activation suggests that 5-HT plays an important physiological role in the regulation of porcine oviduct contractility.

Rhodium carboxylate catalyzed decomposition of vinyldiazoacetates in the presence of heterodienes: enantioselective synthesis of the 6-azabicyclo[3.2.2]nonane and 6-azabicyclo[3.2.2]nonanone ring systems.

Dirhodium tetracarboxylate catalyzed decomposition of vinyldiazoacetates in the presence of N-phenoxycarbonyl protected 1,2-dihydropyridines or 1-methyl-2-pyridones is a direct method for the construction of the 6-azabicyclo[3.2.2]nonane ring system. The [3 + 4] cycloaddition occurs by a tandem cyclopropanation/Cope rearrangement. Asymmetric induction is possible in these transformations either by using (S)-lactate methyl ester as a chiral auxiliary or dirhodium tetraprolinates as chiral catalysts.

In vitro antimicrobial activity of CP-99,219, a novel azabicyclo-naphthyridone.

CP-99,219 is a trifluoronaphthyridone with significant antibacterial activity that includes the family Enterobacteriaceae (MICs for 90% of the strains tested [MIC90s], < or = 0.015 to 0.5 micrograms/ml), Moraxella catarrhalis, Haemophilus influenzae, and gonococci (MICs, < or = 0.015 micrograms/ml). Legionella spp. were also CP-99,219 susceptible, with MICs of 0.008 to 0.12 micrograms/ml. CP-99,219 demonstrated activity greater than that of ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, or enoxacin against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MIC90, 1 microgram/ml), Xanthomonas maltophilia (MIC90, 2 micrograms/ml), Staphylococcus haemolyticus (MIC90, 0.5 micrograms/ml), Enterococcus faecalis (MIC90, 1 microgram/ml), and pneumococci (MIC90, 0.12 micrograms/ml). Numerous ciprofloxacin-resistant isolates were susceptible to CP-99,219, a new compound showing potential value for further in vivo trials.

Total synthesis of (+/-)-didehydrostemofoline (asparagamine A) and (+/-)-isodidehydrostemofoline.

The first total syntheses of (+/-)-didehydrostemofoline (1) and (+/-)-isodidehydrostemofoline (3) are reported. The synthesis begins with the Diels-Alder reaction of readily available pyrrole 9 and ethyl (E)-3-nitroacrylate, the latter serving as a regioinverted equivalent of ketene. After hydrogenation to prevent retro-Diels-Alder reaction, the major cycloadduct is transformed to 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanol 14. Aza-Cope-Mannich reaction of the formaldiminium derivative of 14 delivers 1-azatricyclo[5.3.0.04.10]decane 15, which in 15 additional steps is converted to 1 and 3.

A potent nonpeptide antagonist of the substance P (NK1) receptor.

CP-96,345 [(2S, 3S)-cis-2-(diphenylmethyl)-N-[(2-methoxyphenyl)- methyl]-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-amine] is a potent nonpeptide antagonist of the substance P (NK1) receptor. CP-96,345 inhibited 3H-labeled substance P binding and was a classical competitive antagonist in the NK1 monoreceptor dog carotid artery preparation. CP-96,345 inhibited substance P-induced salivation in the rat, a classical in vivo bioassay, but did not inhibit NK2, NK3, or numerous other receptors; it is thus a selective NK1 antagonist. This compound may prove to be a powerful tool for investigation of the physiological properties of substance P and exploration of its role in diseases.

An enantiomerically pure 1,5,7-trimethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan- 2-one as 1H NMR shift reagent for the ee determination of chiral lactams, quinolones, and oxazolidinones.

The chiral lactam 1 (or its enantiomer ent-1) was shown to be an effective (1)H NMR shift reagent for the ee determination of chiral lactams, quinolones, and oxazolidinones. It was successfully employed in many cases in which a detection of enantiomers by chromatographic methods failed. The method was extended to a broader range of simple substrates bearing a lactam moiety to evaluate its scope. The NH signals of the substrate enantiomers showed the strongest separation and were used for (1)H NMR integration. In most cases, compound 1 (1.5 equiv; 0.06 M solution) induced a baseline separation of the NH signals and it can consequently be regarded as a generally applicable shift reagent for chiral products with a lactam moiety.
