- IMIDAZOLE BIARYL COMPOUNDS AS S-NITROSOGLUTATHIONE REDUCTASE INHIBITORS
-
The present disclosure is directed to compounds of formula (Ie) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein A, B, R1, R2, m, n, X1, X2, X3 and X4 are as defined herein, which are active as inhibitors of S-Nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR). These compounds prevent, inhibit, or suppress the action of GSNOR and are therefore useful in the treatment of GSNOR mediated diseases, disorders, syndromes or conditions such as, e.g., pulmonary hypertension, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), asthma, bronchospasm, cough, pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, interstitial lung diseases, cystic fibrosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

- The Synthesis of the High-Potency Sweetener, NC-00637. Part 2: Preparation of the Pyridine Moiety
-
The pyridine moiety within the high-potency sweetener, NC-00637 (1), 5-amino-2-cyanopyridine (4), was prepared from 2-hydroxy-5-nitropyridine (10). The sequence involved the conversion of the hydroxy group to bromide followed by substitution with cyanide to give 2-cyano-5-nitropyridine (8). Reduction of the nitro group proved to be troublesome when catalytic hydrogenation was used. Iron with an acid gave a reproducible reaction that could be used at scale.
