Synthesis, structural, conformational and pharmacological study of N-2′-acyloxyalkylnorgranatanones

Synthesis and structural, biochemical, and pharmacological study of 3 beta-acyloxy-3 alpha-methoxycarbonyltropane derivatives

A series of 3 beta-acyloxy-3 alpha-methoxycarbonyltropanes were synthesized and studied by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and the crystal structure of 3 alpha-methoxycarbonyl-3 beta-pyridincarbonyloxytropane (5d) was determined by X-ray diffraction. In CDCl3 solution, compounds 5a-f display the same preferred conformation. The pyrrolidine and piperidine rings adopt an envelope conformation flattened at N-8 and a distorted chair conformation puckered at N-8 and flattened at C3, respectively, with the N-substituent in the equatorial position with respect to the piperidine ring. The pharmacological profile of one of these compounds makes it an adequate candidate for the design of novel GABAB antagonist agents.

Synthesis and structural, conformational, and pharmacological study of some of esters derived from 3-phenethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-8-beta-ol and the corresponding N-endo-methyl quaternary derivatives

A series of 8-beta-acyloxy-3-phenethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane and its N-endo methiodides were synthesized and studied by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and the crystal structure of 8-beta-p-chlorobenzoyloxy-3-phenethyl-3-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane methiodide (2c) was determined by X-ray diffraction. In CDCl3 solution, 1b-1e display the same preferred conformation. The cyclopentane and piperidine rings adopt an envelope conformation flattened at C-8 and a distorted chair conformation puckered at C-8 and flattened at N-3, respectively, with the N-substituent in the equatorial position with respect to the piperidine ring. In all cases, methylation takes place from the endo position. The ability of the title compounds to antagonize the acetylcholine-induced contraction of guinea pig ileum is also reported. An initial structure-activity relationship is proposed.
