Orexins (OXs) are peptides produced by perifornical (PeF) and lateral hypothalamic neurons that exert a prominent role in arousal-related processes, including stress. A critical role for the orexin-1 receptor (OX1R) in complex emotional behavior is emerging, such as overactivation of the OX1R pathway being associated with panic or anxiety states. Here we characterize a brain-penetrant, selective, and high-affinity OX1R antagonist, Although compound 56 did not alter spontaneous sleep in rats and in wildtype mice, its administration in orexin-2 receptor knockout mice selectively promoted rapid eye movement sleep, demonstrating target engagement and specific OX1R blockade. In a rat model of psychological stress induced by cage exchange, the OX1R antagonist prevented the prolongation of sleep onset without affecting sleep duration. In a rat model of panic vulnerability (involving disinhibition of the PeF OX region) to threatening internal state changes (i.e., intravenous sodium lactate infusion), compound 56 attenuated sodium lactate-induced panic-like behaviors and cardiovascular responses without altering baseline locomotor or autonomic activity. In conclusion, OX1R antagonism represents a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of various psychiatric disorders associated with stress or hyperarousal states.

Herein we present a review on methods for carbonyl reductions on large scale (≥100 mmol) applied to the synthesis of drug candidates in the pharmaceutical industry. We discuss the most common and reliable methods for the reduction of aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, imides, and acid chlorides. Representative examples illustrate detailed reaction and workup conditions and highlight the advantages and limitations of each reducing agent with special emphasis on safety, cost, and amenability to scale-up.

“…Key intermediate 48 was synthesized using the CF 3 CO 2 ZnCH 2 I reagent and obtained as a single diastereomer in 70% yield (Scheme 17). 51 In 2011, Sherburn and coworkers synthesized a new class of hydrocarbon chains 51, termed "ivyanes", accessed by the cyclopropanation of the corresponding dendralenes 50. After screening various conditions for cyclopropanation, only the CF 3 CO 2 ZnCH 2 I reagent was able to provide complete conversion of the starting material in good to high yield, and the reaction was also amenable to gram scale (Scheme 18).…”

The Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation is a widely used method to synthesize cyclopropanes from alkenes using methylene iodide and a zinc reagent. A novel class of organozinc species, RXZnCH 2 Y, has been found to efficiently cyclopropanate alkenes, including traditionally unreactive unfunctionalized alkenes. The reactivity and selectivity of this class of organozinc reagents can be regulated by tuning the electronic and/or steric nature of the RX group attached to Zn. During recent years, this class of organozinc reagent has been widely used in organic synthesis as a reagent for cyclopropanation and other useful synthetic transformations. Catalytic, asymmetric versions of this reaction have been developed providing high enantiomeric excess for unfunctionalized olefins. On Lo AndreaWong was born in Hong Kong in 1981. She moved to Honolulu, Hawai'i in 1994 and received her B.Sc. degree in chemistry from the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa in 2003. She completed her doctoral dissertation in 2009 with Professor Yian Shi at Colorado State University. She is currently a postdoctoral fellow in Professor Christopher Ackerson's laboratory working on the synthesis of monodispersed thiolate-protected gold nanoparticles at Colorado State University.
