TL;DR: Highly potent bryostatin analogues which contain the complete bRYostatin core structure have been synthesized using a pyran annulation approach as a key strategic element.
Abstract: Highly potent bryostatin analogues which contain the complete bryostatin core structure have been synthesized using a pyran annulation approach as a key strategic element. The A ring pyran was assembled using a pyran annulation reaction between a C1−C8 hydroxy allylsilane and an aldehyde comprising C9−C13. This pyran was transformed to a new hydroxy allylsilane and then coupled with a preformed C ring aldehyde subunit in a second pyran annulation, with concomitant formation of the B ring. This tricyclic intermediate was elaborated to bryostatin analogues which displayed nanomolar to subnanomolar affinity for PKC, but displayed properties indistinguishable from a phorbol ester in a proliferation/attachment assay.

TL;DR: A catalytic system used to promote the coupling between secondary propargylic alcohols and cyclic 1,3-diketones and the nature of the resulting products was found to be dependent on the ring size of the dicarbonyl compound employed.
Abstract: A catalytic system consisting of the 16-electron allyl-ruthenium(II) complex [Ru(η3-2-C3H4Me)(CO)(dppf)][SbF6] (dppf = 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) has been used to promote the coupling between secondary propargylic alcohols and cyclic 1,3-diketones. The nature of the resulting products was found to be dependent on the ring size of the dicarbonyl compound employed. Thus, whereas 6,7-dihydro-5H-benzofuran-4-ones have been selectively obtained starting from 1,3-cyclohexanediones, via furan-ring formation, the use of 1,3-cyclopentanedione leads instead to 6,7-dihydro-4H-cyclopenta[b]pyran-5-ones via a pyran-ring formation process.

TL;DR: The synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of thiophene bioisosteres of the highly potent spirocyclic benzopyran 1 are detailed and the activity of 2a in the mouse capsaicin assay seems to indicate sigma 1 antagonistic activity.
Abstract: Herein, the synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of thiophene bioisosteres of the highly potent spirocyclic benzopyran 1 are detailed. The synthesis of 1-benzyl-6′-methoxy-6′,7′-dihydrospiro[piperidine-4,4′-thieno[3.2-c]pyran] (2a) was performed starting with 3-bromothiophene (3). After introduction of the acetaldehyde substructure (7), halogen metal exchange, addition of 1-benzylpiperidin-4-one, and cyclization led to the spirocyclic thienopyran 2a. The removal of the benzyl group afforded the secondary amine 2f, which was substituted with various residues. With respect to σ1 affinity the N-benzyl derivative 2a, the N-cyclohexylmethyl derivative 2d, and the N-p-fluorobenzyl derivative 2i represent the most potent compounds of this series binding with Ki values of 0.32, 0.29, and 0.62 nM, respectively. Electronic properties of the substituents have only little impact on σ1 affinity. The most potent σ1 ligands display high selectivity against σ2, 5-HT1A, 5-HT6, 5-HT7, α1A, α2, and NMDA receptors. The a...

Abstract: Thermal generation of acylketenes in diol-containing substrates results in dual macrocyclization/pyran-hemiketal formation. This transformation expands the scope of acylketene macrolactonizations and their application to the synthesis of complex macrolides.

Abstract: Diverse substituted 4-di(tri)fluoromethyl-3-cyanopyridine-2(1H)-thiones were synthesized via the Claisen condensation of alpha-methyl(methylene)ketones with di(tri)fluoroacetate, followed by the immediate Thorpe-Guareschi reaction of the preformed di(tri)fluoromethyl-1,3-diketones with cyanothioacetamide. The procedure allows facile synthesis of the di(tri)flouromethylated pyridine-2(1H)-thiones in 50-95% yields, without the need for isolation and purification of intermediates. Resultant 4-di(tri)fluoromethyl-3-cyanopyridine-2(1 H)-thiones were subsequently utilized in domino reactions to produce first various substituted thieno[2,3-b]pyridines and, then, thienopyridines polyannulated with pyridine, pyrimidine, benzodiazocine, diazepine, and pyran rings.
