, p. 231 - 234 (2018)
A catalytic carboxylic acid-selective aldol reaction with trifluoromethyl ketones was developed. Reversible and selective covalent bond formation between a boron catalyst and a carboxylic acid is key to realizing the unprecedented catalytic aldol reaction of simple carboxylic acids. The reaction proceeded chemoselectively at the α-position of carboxylic acid even in the presence of ketone, ester, or amide functional groups in the donor substrates. The chemoselectivity is beneficial for late-stage derivatizations of biologically relevant compounds, as demonstrated by the conversion of indomethacin and triacetylcholic acid.

A second generation of (cyanomethyl)piperazines, 1-acyl-4-((2-methyl-3-pyridyl)cyanomethyl)piperazines, with increased oral activity was prepared and evaluated in vitro in PAF-induced platelet aggregation assay (PAG) and in vivo in a PAF-induced hypotension test in normotensive rats (HYP).Oral activity was ascertained through a PAF-induced mortality test in mice (MOR).Attachment of a methyl group at position 2 of our earlier pyridine derivatives resulted in an improvement of 1 order of magnitude or greater in the ID50 of the oral test.Three different types of acylsubstituents of similar potency emerge from this work: N-(diphenylmethylamino)acetyl, 3-substituted 3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropionyl, and N-substituted 3-amino-3-phenylpropionyl groups.The most interesting compounds, 26 (UR-12460, PAG IC50 = 0.040 μM, HYP, ID50 = 0.021 mg/kg iv, MOR, ID50 = 0.30 mg/kg po) and 58 (UR-12519, PAG IC50 = 0.041 μM, HYP, ID50 = 0.015 mg/kg iv, MOR, ID50 = 0.044 mg/kg po), compare favorably with WEB-2086.Compounds 26 and 58 were also tested in active anaphylactic shock (AAS) and endotoxin-induced mortality (EIM) tests.On the basis of these data, compounds 26 and 58 have been selected for further pharmacological development.
