Tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b]azonin-2,7-dione (2a) has been used as a precursor in the synthesis of dibenzo[b,f ][1,5]diazacyclododecene and dibenzo[b,g][1,6]diazacyclododecene ring systems 4 and 5, respectively, via periodate oxidation of the appropriate indolo-benzo[b]azonines 3 and 7. The synthesis of hexahydro-benzo[b][1,4]diazecin-2,7-dione (10) has been achieved by the Schmidt reaction of 2a. Th...

The title compound, 4-amino-5-benzoyl-1-benzyl-2-(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indol-2-yl)- 1H-pyrrole-3-carbonitrile, was synthesized for the first time in a 40% yield by reaction of N-benzyl-3-imino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indol-1-amine and 1-chloroacetophenone K2CO3/MeCN system (reflux, 6 h). product characterized 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis.

A series of hexahydro-1,6-naphthyridines were synthesized in good yields by the reaction of 3,5-bis[(E)-arylmethylidene]tetrahydro-4(1H)-pyridinones with cyanoacetamide in the presence of sodium ethoxide under simple mixing at ambient temperature for 6-10 minutes and were assayed for their acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity using colorimetric Ellman's method. Compound 4e with metho...

Two approaches to tetrahydro-[1H]-2-benzazepin-4-ones of interest as potentially selective, muscarinic (M(3)) receptor antagonists have been developed. Base promoted addition of 2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)methyl-1,3-dithiane with 2-(tert-butyldimethylsiloxymethyl)benzyl chloride gave the corresponding 2,2-dialkylated 1,3-dithiane which was taken through to the dithiane derivative of the parent...

N-Cyclohexyl-2,4,4-trimethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b][1,5]diazepine-2-carboxamide (5) was synthesized using an efficient, highly recyclable and eco-friendly catalyst heteropolyacid/triethoxysilyl)propyl]isonicotinamide (HPA/TPI-Fe3O4 nanoparticles) in one-pot. The compound 5 was characterized by FT-IR,1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectra, and elemental analysis. The theoretical calculations on 5...

a new series of 1,2-diaryl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1h-benzo[d]imidazoles, possessing trimethoxy phenyl pharmacophore, were synthesized to evaluate their biological activities as tubulin inhibitors. cytotoxic activity of the synthesized compounds 7a-f was assessed against several human cancer cell lines, including mcf-7 (breast cancer cell), hepg2 (liver hepatocellular cells), a549 (adenocarcinomic h...

Objective(s): In this study a series of novel colchicine-like β-acetamidoketones was designed and synthesized as potential tubulin inhibitorsMaterials and Methods: The cytotoxicity of the novel synthesized β-acetamidoketones was assessed against two cancerous cell lines including MCF-7 (human breast cancer cells) and A549 (adenocarcinomi...

Compounds that interact with microtubules, such as paclitaxel, have been shown to possess protective properties against beta-amyloid (Abeta) induced neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer's disease. In this work, the novel agent (3R,5S,7as)-(3,5-bis(4-fluorophenyl)tetrahydro-1H-oxazolo[3,4-c]oxazol-7a-yl)methanol was investigated for effectiveness in protecting neurons against several toxi...

Whereas arginine vasopressin binds to its receptor subtypes V(1)R and V(2)R with equal affinity of approximately 2 nM, nonpeptide antagonists interact differently with vasopressin receptor subtypes. The V(2)R antagonist binding site was mapped by site-directed mutagenesis at six selected amino acid positions, K100D, A110W, M120V, L175Y, R202S, and F307I, predicted to be involved in antagonist b...
