Cinnarizine, cyclizine, buclizine, and meclizine belong to a family of antihistamines that resemble each other in terms of a 1-diphenylmethylpiperazine moiety. We present the development of a four-step continuous process to generate the final antihistamines from bulk alcohols as the starting compounds. HCl is used to synthesize the intermediate chlorides in a short reaction time and excellent yields. This methodology offers an excellent way to synthesize intermediates to be used in drug synthesis. Inline separation allows the collection of pure products and their immediate consumption in the following steps. Overall isolated yields for cinnarizine, cyclizine, and a buclizine derivative are 82, 94, and 87 %, respectively. The total residence time for the four steps is 90 min with a productivity of 2 mmol h-1. The incredible bulk: Bulk alcohols are converted continuously into chlorides using HCl in a microflow. A reaction network that consists of four steps and two inline separations leads to the continuous preparation of cinnarizine, cyclizine, and a buclizine derivative with yields of 82, 94, and 87 %, respectively. The total residence time for the four steps is 90 min with a productivity of 2 mmol h-1.

The InI3-catalyzed hydroallylation of esters by using hydroand allysilanes under mild conditions has been accomplished. Many significant groups such as alkenyl, alkynyl, cyano, and nitro ones survive under these conditions. This reaction system, provided routes to both homoallylic alcohols and ethers, in which either elimination of the alkoxy moiety or of the carbonyl oxygen atom could be freely selected by changing the substituents on the alkoxy moiety and on the hydrosilane. In addition, the hydroallylation of lactones took place without ring cleavage to produce the desired cyclic ethers in high yields.

Protein kinase C (PKC) is a widely studied molecular target for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. We have approached the issue of modifying PKC function by targeting the C1 domain in the regulatory region of the enzyme. Using the X-ray crystal structure of the PKC δ C1b domain, we have discovered conveniently synthesizable derivatives of dialkyl 5-(hydroxymethyl)isophthalate that can act as potential C1 domain ligands. Structure-activity studies confirmed that the important functional groups predicted by modeling were indispensable for binding to the C1 domain and that the modifications of these groups diminished binding. The most promising compounds were able to displace radiolabeled phorbol ester ([3H]PDBu) from PKC α and δ at Ki values in the range of 200-900 nM. Furthermore, the active isophthalate derivatives could modify PKC activation in living cells either by inducing PKC-dependent ERK phosphorylation or by inhibiting phorbol-induced ERK phosphorylation. In conclusion, we report here, for the first time, that derivatives of isophthalic acid represent an attractive novel group of C1 domain ligands that can be used as research tools or further modified for potential drug development.
