Abstract:
Aziridines may be subjected to a cyclooligomerization reaction to produce polyazacycloalkane compounds useful for example in the preparation of chelating agents for use in diagnostic imaging contrast agents. N-benzyl-aziridine in particular is useful as it can be cyclotetramerized and debenzylated to yield cyclen, a key intermediate in chelating agent preparation. The invention provides a particularly attractive route to production of N-benzyl and other N-arylmethyl aziridines of formula (I), (where each R1 independently is hydrogen or a group Ar and Ar is an optionally substituted phenyl group), said process comprising reacting a purified N-arylmethylethanolamine-sulphonate ester with a base. N-arylmethyl-ethanolamine sulphonate ester of the formula: R'NHCH2CH2OSO3H, wherein the N-arylmethyl group R' is an N-(bisarylmethyl) or N-(triarylmethyl) group, as intermediates. In a further aspect the invention provides compounds of formula (II), where Ar and R1 are as hereinbefore defined and at least two differing ArCHR1 moieties are present.
Abstract:
Disclosed are compounds having the structure of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of any thereof: wherein: "Z" and R1 are defined herein, which compounds are believed suitable for use in selectively antagonizing the A2a receptors, for example, those found in high density in the basal ganglia. Such compounds and pharmaceutical formulations are believed to be useful in treatment or management of neurodegenerative diseases, for example, Parkinson's disease, or movement disorders arising from use of certain medications used in the treatment or management of Parkinson's disease.
Abstract:
Provided herein are bridged bicyclic Compounds A and B or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, which are as inhibitors of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) and its C481 mutant. Also provided are methods for preparing Compounds A and B or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Compounds A and B can be used to treat and/or prevent related diseases mediated by BTK or its C481 mutant, especially cancer and autoimmune diseases.
Abstract:
An improved process for preparing verdiperstat is disclosed. The process includes the steps of reacting a compound having formula or a salt thereof, wherein R is the same or different and is each independently a C1-C5 alkyl with 3-(dimethylamino)acrylonitrile to obtain a compound having formula; and converting the compound having formula to verdiperstat.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a class of compounds and to diagnostic compositions containing such compounds where the compounds are iodine containing compounds. More specifically the iodine containing compounds are chemical compounds containing a saturated triaza cyclic central moiety containing carbonyl functions allowing for the arrangement of three iodinated phenyl groups bound thereto. The invention also relates to the use of such diagnostic compositions as contrast agents in diagnostic imaging and in particular in X-ray imaging and to contrast media containing such compounds.
