Synthesis and Evaluation of 4-Fluoro-8-substituted-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-2-benzazapines as Selective Inhibitors of Phenylethanolamine N-Methyltransferase versus the α2-Adrenoceptor

Abstract: A small series of 4-fluoro-8-substituted-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-2-benzazapines (4-fluoro-THBAs; 12-15) were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PNMT; EC 2.1.1.28) and as inhibitors of the binding of clonidine at the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor. 4-Fluoro-THBAs 13-15 displayed selectivity ratios (alpha(2) K(i)/PNMT K(i)) greater than 75 and 4-fluoro-8-nitro-THBA (13) was found to be one of the most selective inhibitors of PNMT known, with a selectivity ratio of greater tha… Show more

“…As shown in Scheme 9, it was found that the protection of the OH group with OSiMe 3 and NH with Boc was necessary, because the treatment of the unpro-tected secondary alcohol 48 with DAST gave 51 and 52 in <5% yields. 16…”

“…Later, an improved purification was found by directly triturating the crude 19 / 20 in EtOAc to provide >98% purity 19 with a slightly better isolated yield (55%). The structure of the ring-contracted side product 20 was elucidated by HNMR and confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies, and a proposed mechanism for 20 is given in Scheme .…”

“…37 Keto alcohols and trimethylsilyl-protected keto amino alcohols are reported to react with DAST to produce the corresponding monofluoro derivatives (eq 24). 38, 39 In the latter case, the ringcontracted product is also formed as the minor product.…”
