5-(Tryptophyl)amino-1,3-dioxoperhidropyrido[1,2-c]pyrimidine-based potent and selective CCK1 receptor antagonists: Structural modifications at the Tryptophan domain
Analogues of the previously reported potent and highly selective CCK1 receptor antagonist (4aS,5R)-2-benzyl-5-(N-Boc-tryptophyl)amino-1,3- dioxoperhydropyrido-[1,2-c]pyrimidine (2a) were prepared to explore the structural requirements at the Boc-tryptophan domain for CCK1 receptor affinity. Structural modifications of 2a involved the Trp side chain, its conformational freedom, the Boc group, and the carboxamide bond. Results of the CCK binding and in vitro functional activity evaluation showed three highly strict structural requirements: the type and orientation of the Trp side chain, the H-bonding acceptor carbonyl group of the carboxamide bond, and the presence of the Trp amino protection Boc. Replacement of this acid- labile group with 3,3-dimethylbutyryl or tert-butylaminocarbonyl conferred acid stability to analogues 14a and 15a, which retained a high potency and selectivity in binding to CCK1 receptors, as well as an in vivo antagonist activity against the acute pancreatitis induced by caerulein in rats. Oral administration of compounds 14a and 15a also produced a lasting antagonism to the hypomotility induced by CCK-8 in mice, suggesting a good bioavailability and metabolic stability
Synthesis and stereochemical structure-activity relationships of 1,3-dioxoperhydropyrido[1,2-c]pyrimidine derivatives: Potent and selective Cholecystokinin-A receptor antagonists.
5-(Tryptophyl)amino-1,3-dioxoperhidropyrido[1,2-c]pyrimidine-based potent and selective CCK1 receptor antagonists: Structure-activity relationship studies on the substituents at N2-position
To establish structure-activity relationships a new series of analogues of the highly potent and selective CCK1 receptor antagonist (4aS,5R)-2-benzyl-5-(N-Boc-tryptophyl)amino-1,3-dioxoperhydropyrido [1,2-c]-pyrimidine (1a) modified at N2-position of the central scaffold has been prepared and evaluated as CCK receptor ligands. With this aim the N2-benzyl group has been replaced by methyl, cyclohexyl, aromatic groups, 1-phenylethyl, and 1-carboxy-2-phenylethyl group. Then, substituents with different electronic and steric properties were introduced into different positions of the phenyl group of analogues 19a and 19b. The results of the CCK receptor binding and in vitro functional activity evaluation suggest the importance of the lipophilic character and an appropriate spatial orientation of the moiety linked at the N2-position of the 1,3-dioxoperhydropyrido[1,2-c]pyrimidine template for potent and selective binding and antagonist activity at CCK1 receptor subtype. The 2-cyclohexyl and (2S)-1-naphthyl derivatives 18a and (2S)-20a have emerged as more potent and selective CCK1 receptor antagonists than the lead compound 1a. Additionally, the results confirm the (4aS,5R)-stereochemistry at the central bicyclic skeleton as an essential structural requirement for potent binding to this receptor subtype
