Zwitterionic Aza-Claisen Rearrangements Controlled by Pyrrolidine Auxiliaries - Useful Key Steps in Convergent Enantioselective Syntheses
2012
Chiral pyrrolidine substituents served as efficient auxiliaries in diastereoselective zwitterionic ketene aza-Claisen rearrangements. Palladium-catalysed N-allylation starting from optically active proline and prolinol derivatives, as well as from (2S,5S)-2,5-dimethoxymethylpyrrolidine, gave various allylamines bearing trisubstituted olefin moieties. Treatment with complex carboxylic acid fluorides in the presence of trimethylaluminium induced activated ketene addition to the nitrogen and subsequent [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement to give γ,δ-unsaturated amides with excellent simple diastereoselectivities and up to 11:1 auxiliary-induced diastereomeric ratios. Cleavage of the pyrrolidine am…
ChemInform Abstract: Ring-Opening Aminolysis of Sesquiterpene Lactones: An Easy Entry to Bioactive Sesquiterpene Derivatives. Synthesis of (+)-β-Cype…
2010
Abstract Santonin ( 1 ) and other sesquiterpene lactones ( 2–3 ) react with pyrrolidine and other cyclic secondary amines to afford γ-hydroxyamides, which by elimination with mesyl chloride in pyridine-benzene at 80°C give unsaturated amides 4a-4c, 5a-5c and 6 . Starting from amides 5a-5c a series of bioactive compounds against Locusta migratoria have been prepared, differing in the oxidation states of the C-3 and C-12 carbon atoms. Starting from amides 5a and 6 two conjugated diene eudesmanes (+)-β-cyperone ( 15 ) and (−)eudesma-3,5-diene ( 19 ) have been prepared involving an elaboration of the amide group of the side chain of the eudesmane skeleton.
1H, 13C, 15N NMR, ESI mass spectral and single crystal X-ray structural characterization of three spiro[pyrrolidine-2,3′-oxindoles]
2006
Abstract Three spiro[pyrrolidine-2,3′-oxindoles], 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-phenyl-spiro[3H-indole-3,3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine]-2′-carboxylic acid methyl ester (1), 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-nitro-2′-phenyl-spiro[3H-indole-3, 3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine] (2) and 1,1′,2,2′,5′,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-2-oxo-1′-nitro-2′-(4″-chlorophenyl)-spiro[3H-indole-3,3′-[3H]-pyrrolizine] (3) have been synthesized and their 1H, 13C and 15N spectra assigned. The chemical shift assignments are based on Pulsed Field Gradient (PFG) Double Quantum Filter (DQF) 1H, 1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), PFG 1H, 13C Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Coherence (HMQC) and PFG 1H,X (X = 13C and 15N) Heteronuc…
A study of the novel anti-inflammatory agent florifenine topical anti-inflammatory activity and influence on arachidonic acid metabolism and neutroph…
1995
We have evaluated the effects of the novel anti-inflammatory agent florifenine, 2-(1-Pyrrolidinyl)ethyl N-[7-(trifluoromethyl)-4-quinolyl]anthranilate, on topical inflammation in mice, free radical-mediated reactions, arachidonic acid metabolism and some neutrophil functions. Topical administration of florifenine produced dose-related anti-inflammatory activity in 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA)-induced ear oedema and with a lower potency, in the response induced by arachidonic acid (AA). Florifenine also inhibited neutrophil migration and PGE2 content in the inflammed ears. In human whole blood, florifenine was a potent and selective inhibitor of TXB2 generation. This anti-infla…
Different muscarinic receptor subtypes modulate proliferation of primary human detrusor smooth muscle cells via Akt/PI3K and map kinases.
2013
While acetylcholine (ACh) and muscarinic receptors in the bladder are mainly known for their role in the regulation of smooth muscle contractility, in other tissues they are involved in tissue remodelling and promote cell growth and proliferation. In the present study we have used primary cultures of human detrusor smooth muscle cells (HDSMCs), in order to investigate the role of muscarinic receptors in HDSMC proliferation. Samples were obtained as discarded tissue from men >65 years undergoing radical cystectomy for bladder cancer and cut in pieces that were either immediately frozen or placed in culture medium for the cell culture establishment. HDSMCs were isolated from samples, propagat…
Daclatasvir-based regimens in HCV cirrhosis: experience from the Italian early access program
2019
AbstractWe reported the efficacy and safety data for daclatasvir (DCV)-based all-oral antiviral therapy in patients treated in the Italian compassionate-use program. 275 patients were included (202 male-73.5%, mean age: 57.4 years, 62 HIV-coinfected, 94 with recurrence of hepatitis C post-OLT). Forty-nine patients (17.8%) had Child-Pugh B, Genotype(G) distribution was: G1a:72 patients (26.2%), G1b:137 (49.8%); G3:40 (14.5%) and G4:26 (9.5%). Patients received DCV with sofosbuvir(SOF) (n = 221, 129 with ribavirin(RBV) or with simeprevir (SMV) or asunaprevir (ASU) (n = 54, 19 with RBV) for up to 24 weeks. Logistic regression was used to identify baseline characteristics associated with sustai…
Binding of [3H][D-Ala2, MePhe4, Gly-ol5] Enkephalin, [3H][D-Pen2, D-Pen5]Enkephalin, and [3H]U-69,593 to Airway and Pulmonary Tissues of Normal and S…

Abstract Bhargava, H. N., V. M. Villar, J. Cortijo and E. J. Morcillo. Binding of [3H][D-Ala2, MePhe4, Gly-ol5]enkephalin, [3H][D-Pen2, D-Pen5]enkephalin, and [3H]U-69,593 to airway and pulmonary tissues of normal and sensitized rats. Peptides 18(10) 1603–1608, 1997.—The role of endogenous opioid peptides in the regulation of bronchomotor tone, as well as in the pathophysiology of asthma is uncertain. We have studied the binding of highly selective [3H]labeled ligands of μ-([D-Ala2, MePhe4, Gly-ol5]enkephalin; DAMGO), δ ([D-Pen2, D-Pen5]enkephalin; DPDPE), and κ-(U-69,593) opioid receptors to membranes of trachea, main bronchus, lung parenchyma and pulmonary artery obtained from normal (uns…
Opiate-induced dopamine release is modulated by severity of alcohol dependence: an [(18)F]fallypride positron emission tomography study.
2011
Background Preclinical data implicate the reinforcing effects of alcohol to be mediated by interaction between the opioid and dopamine systems of the brain. Specifically, alcohol-induced release of β-endorphins stimulates μ-opioid receptors (MORs), which is believed to cause dopamine release in the brain reward system. Individual differences in opioid or dopamine neurotransmission have been suggested to be responsible for enhanced liability to abuse alcohol. In the present study, a single dose of the MOR agonist remifentanil was administered in detoxified alcohol-dependent patients and healthy control subjects to mimic the β-endorphin-releasing properties of ethanol and to assess the effect…
D2-receptor imaging with [123I]IBZM and Single Photon Emission Tomography in psychiatry: a survey of current status
1995
D2-dopamine receptors can be visualized in the human brain in vivo by Single Photon Emission Tomography (SPECT) and the radiolabeled benzamide [123I]IBZM. The present paper reviews the current status of this type of functional brain imaging with respect to basic methodological aspects, data analysis and quantification. The results from published clinical studies in different psychiatric patient populations and normal controls with [123I]IBZM are reviewed. [123I]IBZM-SPECT is a powerful tool for the investigation of D2-dopamine receptor status in psychiatric disorders, different types of drug treatment as well as therapeutic and side effects of pharmacologic agents. However, there still is a…
5′-Benzylidene-1′′-methyl-4′′-phenyltrispiro[1,3-dioxolane-2,1′-cyclohexane-3′,3′′-pyrrolidine-2′′,3′′′-indole]-4′,2′′′-dione
2017
In the title compound, C32H30N2O4, two spiro links connect the methyl-substituted pyrrolidine ring to the oxindole and cyclohexanone rings. The cyclohexanone ring is further connected to the dioxalane ring by a third spiro junction. Both the pyrrolidine and dioxalane rings adopt a twist conformation. The indole ring is nearly planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.0296 (7) Å, and the cyclohexanone ring adopts a distorted boat conformation. In the crystal, C—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen-bonding interactions connect molecules into chains running parallel to thebaxis, which are further linked into layers parallel to theabplane by C—H...O hydrogen bonds.
