Abstract

Thumbnail image of graphical abstract
Methionine and buthionine sulfoximines (MSO and BSO) are non-natural amino acids known to inhibit the biosynthesis of glutathione (GSH). The current syntheses of these biologically active molecules involve harsh reaction conditions and the use of hazardous reagents for the sulfur imidation. Here, improved syntheses of MSO and BSO are presented including safe and mild one-pot imidation/oxidation sequences and single-step deprotections of three different functionalities.

Arbaclofen placarbil (ar-bac-loe-fen pla-kar-bil, also known as XP19986) is a prodrug of R-baclofen. Arbaclofen placarbil possesses more favorable pharmacokinetic profile than baclofen, with less fluctuations in plasma drug levels. It was being developed as a potential treatment for patients with GERD and spasticity due to multiple sclerosis; however, in May 2013 XenoPort announced the termination of development because of unsuccessful results in phase III clinical trials.[1]
Arbaclofen Placerbil is a prodrug of Arbaclofen, which is a selective gamma-amino-butyric acid type B receptor agonist and the R-enantiomer of baclofen. It was discovered, and has been patented by XenoPort as a new chemical entity with an improved pharmacokinetic profile compared to baclofen, which allows for sustained release properties. ArbaclofenPlacerbil was believed to have therapeutic potential in treating gastroesophogeal reflux disease (GERD) and plasticity; however due to discouraging clinical trial results, the drug was abandoned by XenoPort in 2011 for the treatment of GERD. On May 20th, 2013, XenoPort announced plans to terminate the development of Arbaclofen Placerbil for the treatment of multiple sclerosis.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a behaviorally defined disorder which has increased in prevalence over the last two decades. Despite decades of research, no effective treatment is currently available. Animal models, as well as other lines of evidence, point to abnormalities in the balance of cortical excitation to inhibition in individuals with ASD, with this imbalance resulting in an overall increase in cortical excitation. To reduce cortical excitatory glutamate pathways, arbaclofen, a selective agonist of the gamma aminobutyric acid receptor type B, has been developed. This article reviews the evidence for this treatment for ASD using a systematic review methodology. Overall, a systematic search of the literature revealed 148 relevant references with the majority of these being review papers or news items that mentioned the potential promise of arbaclofen. Five original studies were identified, four of which used STX209, a form of arbaclofen developed by Seaside Therapeutics, Inc., and one which used R-baclofen. In an animal model, treatment of Fragile X, a genetic disease with ASD features, demonstrated a reversal of behavioral, neurological, and neuropathological features associated with the disease. One double-blind, placebo-controlled study treated children and adults with Fragile X. Results from this study were promising, with signs of improvement in social function, especially in the most severely socially impaired. Two studies, one open-label and one double-blind, placebo-controlled, were conducted in children, adolescents, and young adults with ASD. These studies suggested some improvements in socialization, although the effects were limited and may have been driven by individuals with ASD that were higher-functioning. These studies and others that have used arbaclofen for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux suggest that arbaclofen is safe and well-tolerated. Clearly, further clinical studies are needed in order to refine the symptoms and characteristics of children with ASD that are best treated with arbaclofen.

Nolatrexed is a thymidylate synthase inhibitor.[1][2]
Phase I studies of p.o. administered nolatrexed dihydrochloride (AG337, THYMITAQ), a nonclassical thymidylate synthase inhibitor, were performed to establish the maximum tolerated dose and a recommended dose for Phase II studies. The bioavailability and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of oral nolatrexed were also studied. Forty-five patients were treated with oral nolatrexed every 6 h for 5 days at doses of 288-1000 mg/m2/day. The bioavailability of the oral preparation was determined, and the effect of a standard meal on nolatrexed absorption was investigated at a dose of 800 mg/m2/day. Nolatrexed plasma concentrations were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. Nolatrexed was rapidly absorbed with a median bioavailability of 89% (range 33-116%), with 88% of patients above 70%. The dose-limiting toxicities were gastrointestinal, and the recommended Phase II oral dose was 800 mg/m2/day. After a standard meal, the peak plasma nolatrexed concentration achieved was lower (median, 8.3 microg/ml versus 15.0 microg/ml; P = 0.001), and the time taken to reach the peak was longer (median, 180 min versus 45 min; P = 0.00003), but the trough concentration was higher (median, 3.6 microg/ml versus 2.1 microg/ml; P = 0.004) when compared with the fasted state. The area under the nolatrexed plasma concentration versus time curve was not affected by food. Average trough nolatrexed concentration, but not dose, was significantly related to the % decrease in both thrombocytes (r2 = 0.58; C50 = 6.0 microg/ml, where C50 is the plasma concentration associated with a 50% decrease in thrombocytes) and neutrophils (r2 = 0.63; C50 = 0.6 microg/ml). Nolatrexed can be safely administered as an oral preparation at a dose of 800 mg/m2/day for 5 days. Bioavailability was close to 100% and, because inhibition of thymidylate synthase by nolatrexed is rapidly reversible, the slower absorption after a standard meal may result in a shorter duration of noninhibitory concentrations between doses.
Catalytic hydrogenation of 2-bromo-4 -nitrotoluene (I) over Raney-Ni provided aniline (II). Reaction of (II) with chloral hydrate and hydroxylamine gave rise to the isonitrosoacetanilide (III), which was subsequently cyclized to the isatin (IV) by heating in concentrated H2SO4. Oxidative cleavage of isatin (IV) produced the anthranilic acid (V). This was converted to the benzoxazinone (VI) upon refluxing with acetic anhydride. Ring opening of benzoxazinone (VI) with MeOH, followed by acidic hydrolysis of the acetamide function, yielded the anthranilate ester (VII). The quinazoline derivative (VIII) was then obtained by treatment of anthranilate (VII) with chloroformamidine hydrochloride in refluxing diglyme. Finally, displacement of the bromide group of (VIII) with the sodium thiolate of 4-mercaptopyridine (IX) under Ullmann conditions afforded the title pyridyl sulfide.

ABSTRACT
A new synthetic method for nolatrexed dihydrochloride (thymitaq) has been developed. The synthesis was accomplished in three steps featuring the direct conversion of the starting 4-bromo-5-methylisatin into the methyl anthranilate by potassium peroxydisulfate / sodium methoxide. In the final Ullmann reaction potassium carbonate was employed in place of sodium hydride, and the amount of copper catalysts was significantly reduced. Moreover, sodium sulfide solution was utilized to efficiently remove copper under approximately neutral conditions instead of hydrogen sulfide / methanol under strongly acidic conditions. By means of these modifications, nolatrexed dihydrochloride was ensured to be prepared in good yield and high purity.

SYNTHESIS
Decarboxylation of 3,5,6-trifluoro-4- hydroxyphthalic acid (I) upon heating at 140 C in an autoclave furnished 2,4,5-trifluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic acid (II). This was converted to ethyl ester (III) by refluxing in EtOH in the presence of H2SO4. Condensation of (III) with chlorodifluoromethane and NaH in hot DMF produced the corresponding difluoromethyl ether, and subsequent basic hydrolysis of the ethyl ester yielded 3- (difluoromethoxy) -2, 4,5-trifluorobenzoic acid (IV). Alternatively, acid (II) was converted to acid chloride with SOCl2 and subsequently condensed with ammonia to give amide (V). After formation of the difluoromethyl ether (VI) under similar conditions as above, acid (IV) was obtained by diazotization of the amide function of (VI) in hot sulfuric acid. The difluoromethoxy acid (IV) was also prepared by direct alkylation of hydroxy acid (II) with chlorodifluoromethane in the presence of NaOH in hot DMF. acid (IV) was activated as the corresponding acid chloride (VII) with SOCl2. Condensation of acid chloride (VII) with the magnesium salt of diethyl malonate gave rise to the benzoylmalonate (VIII). Further decarbethoxylation of (VIII) by heating in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid yielded keto ester (IX). This was condensed with triethyl orthoformate in the presence of Ac2O to give the ethoxyacrylate (X), which was converted to enamine (XII) by treatment with cyclopropylamine (XI). The target quinolone system (XIII) was then obtained by intramolecular cyclization of (XII) in the presence of NaH. Then, ethyl ester (XII) cleavage using boron trifluoride etherate provided the key quinolonecarboxylic acid boron chelate (XIV)
