RESUMO
A series of phenylaminopyrimidines has been identified as inhibitors of Janus kinases (JAKs). Development of this initial series led to the potent JAK2/JAK1 inhibitor CYT387 (N-(cyanomethyl)-4-[2-[[4-(4-morpholinyl)phenyl]amino]-4-pyrimidinyl]-benzamide). Details of synthesis and SAR studies of these compounds are reported.

The most common treatment for osteoarthritis is daily oral administration of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug such as diclofenac. This daily dosage regime is often associated with severe side effects. In this study, we explored the potential of utilizing a high molecular weight cross-linked polyurethane polymer covalently linked to diclofenac (C-DCF-PU) for intra-articular administration. We aim to exploit the advantages of local drug delivery by developing an implant with improved efficacy and reduced side effects. The polymer was synthesized from a diclofenac-functionalized monomer unit in a simple one-pot reaction, followed by cross-linking. In vitro drug release studies showed zero-order drug release for 4 days, followed by a gradual decline in drug release rate until diclofenac was depleted after 15 days. The cross-linked polymer was triturated to yield an injectable microgel formulation for administration. Whole animal fluorescence imaging of the rhodamine-labeled C-DCF-RH-PU showed good retention of the polymer in the knee joints of healthy rats, with approximately 30% of the injected dose still present 2 weeks post intra-articular administration. In a reactivation arthritis animal model, the C-DCF-RH-PU formulation reduced pain and significantly reduced inflammation after a short lag phase, showing that this drug delivery system warrants further development for long-term treatment of osteoarthritis with the benefit of reduced side effects.
RESUMO
A facile synthesis method of polymer diclofenac conjugates (PDCs) based on biocompatible polyurethane chemistry that provides a high drug loading and offers a high degree of control over diclofenac (DCF) release kinetics is described. DCF incorporating monomer was reacted with ethyl-l-lysine diisocyanate (ELDI) and different amounts of polyethylene glycol (PEG) in a one-step synthesis to yield polymers with pendent diclofenac distributed along the backbone. By adjusting the co-monomers feed ratio, the drug loading could be tailored accordingly to give DCF loading of up to 38 w/w%. The release rate could also be controlled easily by changing the amount of PEG in the backbone. Above 10 w/w% of PEG, the in vitro DCF release studies in physiological conditions showed an apparent zero-order profile without an initial burst effect for up to 120 days. The PDCs described may be suitable for long-term intra-articular (IA) delivery for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA).
RESUMO
Degradation reactions on diclofenac-monoglycerides (3a,b), diclofenac-(p-hydroxybenzoate)-2-monoglyceride (3c), diclofenac (1), and diclofenac lactam (4) were performed at 37 °C in isotonic buffer solutions (apparent pH range 1-8) containing varying concentrations of acetonitrile (ACN). The concentration remaining of each analyte was measured versus time. Diclofenac-monoglycerides and diclofenac-(p-hydroxybenzoate)-2-monoglyceride (3c) were both found to undergo facile and complete hydrolysis in pH 7.4 isotonic phosphate buffer/10% ACN. Under mildly acidic, neutral or alkaline conditions, diclofenac-(p-hydroxybenzoate)-2-monoglyceride (3c) had the fastest hydrolysis rate (t1/2 = 3.23 h at pH 7.4), with simultaneous formation of diclofenac lactam (4) and diclofenac (1). Diclofenac-monoglycerides (3a,b) hydrolyzed more slowly under the same conditions, to again yield both diclofenac (1) and diclofenac lactam (4). There was also transesterification of diclofenac-2-monoglyceride (3b) to its regioisomer, diclofenac-1-monoglyceride (3a) across the pH range. Diclofenac was shown to be stable in neutral or alkaline conditions but cyclized to form the lactam (4) in acidic conditions. Conversely, the lactam (4) was stable under acidic conditions but was converted to an unknown species under alkaline or neutral conditions.

Levulinic acid-derived 6-diazoheptane-2,5-dione (9) serves as a common precursor in a formal synthesis of frontalin 19, and in syntheses of cis-nemorensic acid 1, 4-hydroxy-cis-nemorensic acid 2, 3-hydroxy-cis-nemorensic acid 3, and nemorensic acid 4. The key step in these syntheses is the Rh(2)(OAc)(4)-catalyzed tandem carbonyl ylide formation-intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of diazodione 9 with formaldehyde, alkynes or allene, which occur with high regioselectivity. Subsequent oxidative cleavage of the ring originally derived from the cyclic carbonyl ylide intermediate provides a straightforward access to polysubstituted tetrahydrofurans, and in particular an efficient entry to the nemorensic acids. Enantioselective cycloadditions with diazodione 9, using chiral rhodium catalysts, gave cycloadducts in up to 51% ee.
