The current treatments available for anxiety and depression are only palliative. Full remission has remained elusive, characterizing unmet medical needs. In the scope of an academic drug discovery program, we describe here the design, synthesis, in vitro metabolism prediction and pharmacological characterization of a new piperazine compound, 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)?4-((1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methyl)piperazine (LQFM005), and of its main putative metabolite, 4-(4-((4-(4-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl)methyl)? 1H-pyrazol-1-yl)phenol (LQFM235). The production of the metabolite was initially performed by in vitro biotransformation of LQFM005 using Aspergillus candidus and then by chemical synthesis. Oral administration of either 12 or 24 μmol/kg LQFM005 to mice did not affect spontaneous locomotor activity but increased the time spent in the center of the open field. Both LQFM005 and LQFM235 (24 μmol/kg) increased the time spent by the mice in the open arms of the elevated plus maze (EPM), a good indication of anxiolytic-like effect, and decreased the immobility time in the forced swimming test (FST), suggesting an antidepressant-like effect. The previous administration of WAY-100635 (a 5-HT1A antagonist) abolished the effects of LQFM005 in both EPM and FST. Binding experiments showed that LQFM005 and its metabolite bind to the 5-HT1A receptor with a moderate affinity (Ki around 5–9 μM). The two compounds are relatively safe, as indicated by cytotoxic assessment using the 3T3 fibroblast cell line and estimated LD50 around 600 mg/kg. In conclusion, oral administration of the newly synthesized phenylpiperazines produced anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects in behavioral tests, putatively in part through the activation of 5-HT1A receptors.

Here we report, for the first time, the Ullmann C-N coupling reaction of nitroarenes which is achieved by using a copper containing metal-organic framework (MOF) catalyst under heterogenous conditions. The ready availability of nitroarenes and their low cost have made them ideal replacements for haloarenes as electrophilic coupling partners. Notably, the reaction protocol suppresses the by-product formation in the catalytic reaction. The catalyst has been designed and synthesized by two step post-synthesis functionalization of a MOF,viz.dabco MOF-1 with a -NH2functional group (DMOF-NH2). In the post-synthetic treatment, salicylaldehyde has been used for organic modification first and then copper(ii) was successfully incorporated onto the inner surface of the porous material. The hybrid porous solid thus obtained has been employed in the catalytic C-N coupling reaction of nitroarenes with a wide variety of amines under heterogeneous conditions, which displayed very high turnover frequencies (TOF) in catalytic reactions attesting its efficacy towards theN-arylation reaction.

An effective and general aryl amination protocol has been developed using a magnetically recoverable Ni(0) based nanocatalyst. This new stable catalyst was prepared on Fe3O4@SiO2 modified by EDTA and investigated by FT-IR, EDX, TEM, XRD, DLS, FE-SEM, XPS, NMR, TGA, VSM, ICP and elemental analysis techniques. The reaction proceeded via carbon-oxygen bond cleavage of (hetero)aryl carbamates and sulfamates under simple and mild conditions without the use of any external ligands. This method demonstrated functional group tolerance in the N-arylation of various nitrogen-containing compounds as well as aliphatic amines, anilines, pyrroles, pyrazoles, imidazoles, indoles, and indazoles with good to excellent yields. Furthermore, the catalyst could be easily recovered by using an external magnetic field and directly reused at least six times without notable reduction in its activity. This journal is
