- CB2-selective cannabinoid receptor ligands: Synthesis, pharmacological evaluation, and molecular modeling investigation of 1,8-naphthyridin-2(1 H)-one-3-carboxamides
-
We have recently identified 1,8-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one-3-carboxamide as a new scaffold very suitable for the development of new CB2 receptor potent and selective ligands. In this paper we describe a number of additional derivatives in which the same central scaffold has been variously functionalized in position 1 or 6. All new compounds showed high selectivity and affinity in the nanomolar range for the CB2 receptor. Furthermore, we found that their functional activity is controlled by the presence of the substituents at position C-6 of the naphthyridine scaffold. In fact, the introduction of substituents in this position determined a functionality switch from agonist to antagonists/inverse agonists. Finally, docking studies showed that the difference between the pharmacology of these ligands may be in the ability/inability to block the Toggle Switch W6.48(258) (χ1 g+ → trans) transition.

- Synthesis of quinolines and naphthyridines: Via catalytic retro-aldol reaction of β-hydroxyketones with ortho -aminobenzaldehydes or nicotinaldehydes
-
A Cu(i)-catalyzed retro-aldol reaction of β-hydroxyketones with ortho-aminobenzaldehydes and nicotinaldehydes is reported that produces a range of quinolines and naphthyridines with high efficiency and selectivity. This reaction uses β-hydroxyketones as a regiospecific ketone-protected enolate source via copper-catalyzed retro-aldol Cα-Cβ bond cleavage. The in situ generated copper enolate undergoes kinetically favorable cyclization with ortho-amino aryl aldehydes to produce quinolines and naphthyridines in a chemo- and regioselective manner. The mild and weakly basic reaction conditions also suppress possible side reactions of benzaldehydes under strongly basic conditions, resulting in improved reaction yields.
