ABSTRACT: A new and easy protocol for the formation of substituted 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-6(1H)-ones was developed on solid support. The heterocyclic compounds were formed by nucleophilic reaction of hydrazine on thioamide esters. As cyclization was concomitant with cleavage from the support, substituted 4,5-dihydrotriazinones were obtained in high purity. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

ABSTRACT: A straightforward synthesis of 2,6-disubstituted piperidines bearing alpha-amino acid side-chains was developed. Synthesis was based on a Homer-Wadsworth-Emmons condensation of a beta-ketophosphonate derived from an alpha-amino acid residue with a beta-homologated aldehyde of an N-protected amino acid residue. The generated alpha-beta unsaturated ketones were then reduced, deprotected, and cyclized in a hydrogenation/hydrogenolysis one-pot procedure to yield piperid-me moieties. Introduction of a new conformational restriction in the obtained molecules allowed total assignment of the stereocenters by NMR experiments. This assignment allowed us to propose a mechanistic pathway during the cyclization process, explaining the loss of exocyclic carbon-center configuration. (C) Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

ABSTRACT: Anchoring of an alpha-amino-acid amide residue by its amine function to a carbamate resin followed by primary amide Hofmann rearrangement led to a gem-diamino residue linked to the resin. The generated primary amine could be acylated with various carboxylic compounds offering a large variety of molecules. Furthermore, this new solid-phase strategy allowed a reliable synthesis of a gem-diamino monomeric residue which could not be easily obtained in solution due to the limited stability of monocarbamate-protected gem-diaminoalkyl derivatives.

ABSTRACT: EP1572 UMV1843 [Aib-DTrp-DgTrp-CHO]) is a new peptido-mimetic GH secretagogue (GHS) showing binding potency to the GHS-receptor in animal and human tissues similar to that of ghrelin and peptidyl GHS. EP1572 induces marked GH increase after s.c. administration in neonatal rats. Preliminary data in 2 normal young men show that: 1) acute i.v. EP1572 administration (1.0 microg/kg) induces strong and selective increase of GH levels; 2) single oral EP1572 administration strongly and reproducibly increases GH levels even after a dose as low as 0.06 mg/kg. Thus, EP1572 is a new peptido-mimetic GHS with potent and selective GH-releasing activity.

ABSTRACT: Starting from EP 51389, a potent growth hormone secretagogue (GHS), a new series of GHS has been designed, synthesized and tested. This series was built on a gem-diamino moiety and a structure activity relationship study was performed including N-methylation of the amide bonds. Some analogues exhibited more powerful activity than Hexarelin, they were active per os on dog and have been selected as candidates for further development.
