TL;DR: After application of a common users' dose, diphenidine metabolites could be detected in rat urine by the authors' GC-MS as well as LC-MSn SUSA.
Abstract: Diphenidine is a new psychoactive substance (NPS) sold as a 'legal high' since 2013. Case reports from Sweden and Japan demonstrate its current use and the necessity of applying analytical procedures in clinical and forensic toxicology. Therefore, the phase I and II metabolites of diphenidine should be identified and based on these results, the detectability using standard urine screening approaches (SUSAs) be elucidated. Urine samples were collected after administration of diphenidine to rats and analyzed using different sample workup procedures with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and liquid chromatography-(high resolution)-mass spectrometry (LC-(HR)-MS). With the same approaches incubates of diphenidine with pooled human liver microsomes (pHLM) and cytosol (pHLC) were analyzed. According to the identified metabolites, the following biotransformation steps were proposed in rats: mono- and bis-hydroxylation at different positions, partly followed by dehydrogenation, N,N-bis-dealkylation, and combinations of them followed by glucuronidation and/or methylation of one of the bis-hydroxy-aryl groups. Mono- and bis-hydroxylation followed by dehydrogenation could also be detected in pHLM or pHLC. Cytochrome-P450 (CYP) isozymes CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4 were all capable of forming the three initial metabolites, namely hydroxy-aryl, hydroxy-piperidine, and bis-hydroxy-piperidine. In incubations with CYP2D6 hydroxy-aryl and hydroxy-piperidine metabolites were detected. After application of a common users' dose, diphenidine metabolites could be detected in rat urine by the authors' GC-MS as well as LC-MSn SUSA. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

TL;DR: DPH can have addictive liability, unlike MXP, despite the chemical similarities of these two NPS, and the conformational responses and atomistic processes within DAT during its interactions with the dissociative NPS are explained.
Abstract: Novel psychoactive substances (NPS) may have unsuspected addiction potential through possessing stimulant properties. Stimulants normally act at the dopamine transporter (DAT) and thus increase dopamine (DA) availability in the brain, including nucleus accumbens, within the reward and addiction pathway. This paper aims to assess DAT responses to dissociative diarylethylamine NPS by means of in vitro and in silico approaches. We compared diphenidine (DPH) and 2-methoxydiphenidine (methoxphenidine, 2-MXP/MXP) for their binding to rat DAT, using autoradiography assessment of [125I]RTI-121 displacement in rat striatal sections. The drugs’ effects on electrically-evoked DA efflux were measured by means of fast cyclic voltammetry in rat accumbens slices. Computational modeling, molecular dynamics and alchemical free energy simulations were used to analyse the atomistic changes within DAT in response to each of the five dissociatives: DPH, 2-MXP, 3-MXP, 4-MXP and 2-Cl-DPH, and to calculate their relative binding free energy. DPH increased DA efflux as a result of its binding to DAT, whereas MXP had no significant effect on either DAT binding or evoked DA efflux. Our computational findings corroborate the above and explain the conformational responses and atomistic processes within DAT during its interactions with the dissociative NPS. We suggest DPH can have addictive liability, unlike MXP, despite the chemical similarities of these two NPS.

TL;DR: A highly efficient and mild protocol for the aminocarbonylation of a nucleoside is developed by employing palladium/(1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantan- 1-ium-1-yl)butane-1sulfonate (Pd/PTABS) as the catalytic system.
Abstract: A highly efficient and mild protocol for the aminocarbonylation of a nucleoside is developed by employing palladium/(1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantan-1-ium-1-yl)butane-1-sulfonate (Pd/PTABS) as the catalytic system. The developed aminocarbonylation methodology employs CO gas at a relatively low temperature of 60 °C and is suitable for a wide range of amines, including (heteroaryl)benzylic, aliphatic acyclic, alicyclic and secondary amines. This protocol is also utilized for the synthesis of a sangivamycin precursor by carrying out the Pd-catalyzed amination and aminocarbonylation simultaneously. The utility of this protocol is further demonstrated by the synthesis of the drugs moclobemide and nikethamide.

TL;DR: By employing a chiral Lewis base as the catalyst, enantioselective hydrosilylation of N-(1,2-diarylethylidene)arylamines was realized and one of the products was employed in the synthesis of a pharmaceutical substance.
Abstract: By employing a chiral Lewis base as the catalyst, enantioselective hydrosilylation of N-(1,2-diarylethylidene)arylamines was realized. The reactions proceeded smoothly to afford various chiral 1,2-diarylethanamines with good yields (up to 99%) in good enantioselectivities (up to 98%). Furthermore, one of the products was employed in the synthesis of a pharmaceutical substance.

Abstract: The reagent formed by combining diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD) and triphenylphosphine (TPP) could be utilized in the intermolecular dehydration between an alcohol and various acidic components such as carboxylic acids, phosphoric diesters, imides, and active methylene compounds. By the use of DEAD and TPP, diols and hydroxy acids gave cyclic ethers and lactones, respectively. The reaction of nucleosides with DEAD and TPP afforded triphenylphosphoranylnucleosides. Alcohols reacted with 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-nitrophenol in the presence of DEAD and TPP to give aci-nitroesters which converted into the corresponding carbonyl compounds.

TL;DR: In this paper, the application of (S)-1,10-binaphthyl-2,20-diol as NMR chiral solvating agent (CSA) for omeprazole, and three of its analogs (lanso-, panto-, and rabe-prazole) was investigated.
Abstract: The application of (S)-1,10-binaphthyl-2,20-diol as NMR chiral solvating agent (CSA) for omeprazole, and three of its analogs (lanso-, panto-, and rabe-prazole) was investigated. The formation of diastereomeric host–guest complexes in solution between the CSA and the racemic substrates produced sufficient NMR signal splitting for the determination of enantiomeric excesses by Hor F-NMR spectroscopy. Using of hydrophobic deuterated solvents was mandatory for obtaining good enantiodiscrimination, thus suggesting the importance of intermolecular hydrogen bonds in the stabilization of the complexes. The method was applied to the fast quantification of the enantiomeric purity of in-process samples of S-omeprazole. Chirality 00:000–000, 2009. VC 2009
