Sequential Therapy with Azelastine in Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis
2011
A sequential therapy treatment with azelastine (Allergodil (r) ) in seasonal allergic rhinitis is introduced. In the critical early stage, treatment begins with a combination of azelastine tablets (azelastine hydrochloride, CAS 79307-93-0) and azelastine nasal spray (azelastine, CAS 58581-89-8), and after five days only the nasal spray is administered. This sequential therapy model aims at achieving the quickest and most complete effect without reducing the tolerability. The investigation was carried out as a randomized, controlled double-blind phase IV study of parallel group design with 300 patients during 14 days. In the first five days, one group was given one puff (0.14 mg) of azelasti…
Synthesis of polyfluoroalkyl sp2-iminosugar glycolipids and evaluation of their immunomodulatory properties towards anti-tumor, anti-leishmanial and …
2019
Immunomodulatory glycolipids, among which α-galactosylceramide (KRN7000) is an iconic example, have shown strong therapeutic potential in a variety of conditions ranging from cancer and infection to autoimmune or neurodegenerative diseases. A main difficulty for those channels is that they often provoke a cytokine storm comprising both pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators that antagonize each other and negatively affect the immune response. The synthesis of analogues with narrower cytokine secretion-inducing capabilities is hampered by the intrinsic difficulty at controlling the stereochemical outcome in glycosidation reactions, particularly if targeting the α-anomer, which seriously hamper…
The Allyl Ester as Carboxy-Protecting Group in the Stereoselective Construction of Neuraminic-Acid Glycosides
1988
The application of the allyl-ester moiety as protecting principle for the carboxy group of N-acetylneuraminic acid is described. Peracetylated allyl neuraminate 2 is synthesized by reacting the caesium salt of the acid 1 with allyl bromide. Treatment of 2 with HCl in AcCl or with HF/pyridine gives the corresponding 2-chloro or 2-fluoro derivatives 3 and 4, respectively (Scheme 1). In the presence of Ag2CO3, the 2-chloro carbohydrate 3 reacts with di-O-isopropylidene-protected galactose 5 to give the 2–6 linked disaccharide with the α-D-anomer 6a predominating (α-D/β-D = 6:1; Scheme 2). Upon activation of the 2-fluoro derivative 4 with BF3 · Et2O, the β-D-anomer 6b is formed preferentially (…
Diastereoselective Synthesis of 2-Phenylselenenyl-1,3-anti-Diols and 2-Phenylselenenyl-1,3-anti-Azido-Alcohols via Hydroxy- and Azido-Selenenylation …
2005
A method to synthesize 2-phenylselenenyl-1,3-anti-diols and 2-phenyl- selenenyl-1,3-anti-azidoalcohols via hydroxy- or azido-selenenylation of trans-allylic alcohols is reported. Moreover, the first example of hydroxyl-selenenylation of an allylic azide is presented. Yields ranging from moderate to good and diastereomeric ratios up to 95:5 are achieved.
Synthesis of fluorinated drimanes. Preparation of 9αF-drimenin
2003
Abstract A stereoselective approach to the 9α-fluorinated analogue of the natural drimane sesquiterpene drimenin starting from β-ionone is described. β-Ionone is transformed into a bicyclic β-cetoester from which 9αF-drimenin is prepared through stereoselective electrophilic fluorination at the C-9 with N -fluorobenzenesulfonimide followed by Wittig methylenation, allylic bromination, bromine-hydroxyl exchange and γ-lactonization.
Solid-phase synthesis of a glycopeptide from the homophilic recognition domain of epithelial cadherin 1 using a O-pentafluorophenyluronium salt
1998
Abstract The β-turn forming glycopeptide 6 from the homophilic recognition domain of mouse epithelial cadherin 1 carrying a T N -antigen side chain was synthesised on solid phase using an allylic anchor and the new coupling reagent N , N - N ′, N ′-bis(tetramethylene)- O -pentafluorophenyluronium hexafluorophosphate 3 .
Enediolates and dienediolates of carboxylic acids in synthesis. Synthesis of β,γ-epoxyacids from α-chloroketones
1998
Abstract Lithium dienolates of saturated or α,β-unsaturated acids react with α-chloroketones provide a convenient method for preparation of highly sustituted β,γ-epoxyacids. These highly reactive compounds lead in most cases to variable ammounts of the corresponding β-lactones and allylic alcohols.
Diastereoselective synthesis of antiquorin and related polyoxygenated atisene-type diterpenes
2007
Abstract A diastereoselective approach to polyoxygenated atisene-type diterpenes starting from (S)-(+)-carvone is described. The key steps used in the preparation of the atisene framework are an intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction, an intramolecular diazoketone cyclopropanation, an endocyclic cyclopropane ring cleavage and the regioselective reduction of an allylic bromide by a low-valent chromium species. The synthesis of natural atisanes antiquorin (1), atis-16-ene-3,14-dione (3), atis-16-ene-2,3,14-trione (8) and 3β-hydroxy-atis-16-ene-2,14-dione (9) following this approach is presented. Also described is the synthesis of 18-hydroxy-atis-16-ene-3,14-dione (5), the structure erroneously a…
A joint experimental and ab initio study on the reactivity of several hydroxy selenides. Stereoselective synthesis of cis-disubstituted tetrahydrofur…
2001
Abstract The reactivity of several hydroxy selenides bearing an ethereal chain with catalytic amounts of perchloric acid in dichloromethane was investigated. Results showed that the position of the oxygen atom with respect to the seleniranium ring was crucial in order to get a good yield of the cyclized product. The factors on which yields of the 5- endo cyclization of the seleniranium ions depend were analysed by ab initio (HF/3-21G ∗ ) studies. An explanation of the different coordinating ability, towards the positively charged selenium atom, of the allylic OMe and homoallylic OH-2 groups was given.
