- Discovery of a piperazine urea based compound as a potent, selective, orally bioavailable melanocortin subtype-4 receptor partial agonist
-
We report the discovery of piperazine urea based compound 1, a potent, selective, orally bioavailable melanocortin subtype-4 receptor partial agonist. Compound 1 shows anti-obesity efficacy without potentiating erectile activity in the rodent models.

- PIPERAZINE UREA DERIVATIVES AS MELANOCORTIN-4 RECEPTOR AGONISTS
-
Certain novel piperazine urea derivatives are agonists of the human melanocortin-4 receptor (MC-4R) and, in particular, are receptor-subtype selective agonists of MC-4R. They are useful for the treatment, control, or prevention of diseases and disorders r

- Asymmetric Synthesis of (2R,6R) and (2S,6S)-2,6-Dimethylpiperazine
-
The title compounds were prepared via two efficient routes.The first sequence utilized a diastereospecific triflate alkylation in the key bond forming step while the second method relied on a novel intramolecular Mitsunobu reaction to set the required stereochemistry.

- Asymmetric Synthesis of 2,6-Methylated Piperazines
-
The complete series of enantiopure 2,6-methylated piperazines was synthesized utilizing two alternative reactions in the key bond-forming step.The dimethyl enantiomers, (2R,6R)- and (2S,6S)-2,6-dimethylpiperazine (1, 2), were prepared using either a diastereoselective triflate alkylation or a novel intermolecular Mitsunobu reaction to set the required stereochemistry.The monomethyl derivatives, (R)- and (S)-tert-butyl 2-methyl-1-piperazinecarboxylate (3, 4) were also synthesized employing the Mitsunobu cyclization strategy while the trimethyl compounds, (R)- and (S)-2,2,6- trimethylpiperazine (5, 6) were prepared using an enantiospecific triflate alkylation as the principal reaction.These methods represent efficient, general strategies for preparing a variety of 2,6-methylated piperazines for which the absolute stereochemistry can be readily controlled.
