Azepines and Piperidines with Dual Norepinephrine Dopamine Uptake Inhibition and Antidepressant Activity

Abstract: Herein, we describe the discovery of inhibitors of norepinephrine (NET) and dopamine (DAT) transporters with reduced activity relative to serotonin transporters (SERT). Two compounds, 8b and 21a, along with nomifensine were tested in a rodent receptor occupancy study and demonstrated dose-dependent displacement of radiolabeled NET and DAT ligands. These compounds were efficacious in a rat forced swim assay (model of depression) and also had activity in rat spontaneous locomotion assay.

“…In agreement with the reported results,11 a nitro group was reduced to an amino group (Table 2, entry 7). Notably, concomitant reductions of ester group on an arene to methyl rather than hydroxymethyl (entries 9 and 25) and alkene to alkane (entry 12) are not readily achieved by other methods, and may find application in some multistep synthesis 5c,i. Although secondary and tertiary amides were reduced at room temperature, the reduction of primary amides and lactam was best conducted at 0 °C (Table 2, entries 19, 33–36).…”

“…Access to seven‐membered ring systems, especially seven‐membered N ‐heterocyclic systems, have gained growing interest among the synthetic community owing to the continuing identification of the seven‐membered‐ring‐containing natural products with the appealing pharmacological and pesticidal activities . Attractive N ‐heterocyclic systems include azepine derivatives, which are unique structural motifs presented in many biologically active natural products and pharmaceuticals, such as balanol,, capuramycin and its derivatives, (−)‐cobactin T, tuberocrooline,, (−)‐stemoamide,– and ( S )‐3‐(3,4‐dichlorophenyl)‐2,3,4,7‐tetrahydro‐1 H ‐azepine (Scheme ). Accordingly, considerable efforts has been devoted to the development of new efficient methods for assembling azepines .…”

“…[ 136 ] Thus, Brown's group explored, designed, and synthesized 2,3,4,7‐tetrahydro‐1 H ‐azepine derivatives and piperidine analogues with azepine moiety to avoid this side effect. [ 137 ] Two compounds, 75 and 76 , ( Figure ) provided good affinity for NET and DAT with K i values of 17, 6.0 × 10 −9 m and 4.0, 6.0 × 10 −9 m , respectively, and demonstrated antidepressant effect similar to Nomifensine in the FST at doses of 3 and 7.3 mg kg −1 (i.p. ), respectively.…”
