Abstract
Herein, the Rh-catalyzed consecutive C-H bond olefination/annulation/olefination cascade, tandemly directed by sulfonamide and ester groups, has been developed under mild conditions with the assistance of 1-adamantane carboxylic acid. A seven-membered metallacycle including an ester group was preferred to the five-membered one including a sulfonamide group for the third C-H activation. In this transformation, the Rh catalyst exhibits its high reactivity by catalyzing a triple C-H activation process with a low catalyst loading at 50 °C. This method can be applied in the construction of various pharmaceutical derivatives.

Abstract
A new synthetic method for the construction of benzoazepine analogues has been developed employing ortho-arylmethylbenzyl azide derivatives as precursors using an azide rearrangement reaction. In this work, 14 benzoazepine compounds were successfully synthesized in moderate to excellent yields. All synthetic benzoazepines were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against normal human kidney cell line (HEK cell). The results showed that compound 18c had the lowest cytotoxicity (IC50 = 65.68 μM) among tested compounds, which was comparable with the antianxiety drug diazepam (IC50 = 87.90 μM). Based on the cytotoxicity results, five benzoazepine analogues (compounds 18c, 18h, 18j, 18n, and 18p) were selected to determine the antianxiety effect on stressed rats using elevated plus maze (EPM) and open field test (OFT) methods. Interestingly, compound 18c showed better anxiolytic activity than diazepam without a sedative effect by showing superior hyperlocomotor activity. Therefore, this discovery could pave the way for drug development to treat patients with anxiety disorder.

9-Aminomethyl-9,10-dihydroanthracene (AMDA) analogs as structural probes for steric tolerance in 5-HT2A and H1 receptor binding sites. Bioorg Med Chem Lett 2009; 20:935-8.

Abstract
Synthesis, radioligand binding and molecular modeling studies of several 9-aminomethyl-9,10-dihydroanthracene (AMDA) analogs were carried out to determine the extent of the steric tolerance associated with expansion of the tricyclic ring system and amine substitution at 5-HT(2A) and H(1) receptors. A mixture of (7,12-dihydrotetraphene-12-yl)methanamine and (6,11-dihydrotetracene-11-yl)methanamine in a 75-25% ratio was found to have an apparent K(i) of 10nM at the 5-HT(2A) receptor. A substantial binding affinity for (7,12-dihydrotetraphene-3-methoxy-12-yl)methanamine at the 5-HT(2A) receptor (K(i)=21 nM) was also observed. Interestingly, this compound was found to have 100-fold selectivity for 5-HT(2A) over the H(1) receptor (K(i)=2500 nM). N-Phenylalkyl-AMDA derivatives, in which the length of the alkyl chain varied from methylene to n-butylene, were found to have only weak affinity for both 5-HT(2A) and H(1) receptors (K(i)=223 to 964 nM). Our results show that large rigid annulated AMDA analogs can be sterically accommodated within the proposed 5-HT(2A) binding site.

Abstract
The underlying mechanisms of urocanic acid (UA) to induce immune suppression remain elusive until the recent finding that cis-UA acts via the serotonin, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT(2A). In the present study, the interactions of cis-UA to 5-HT(2A) receptor were explored and compared with those of 5-HT to the same receptor using computational docking. Similar binding modes were observed for cis-UA and 5-HT with 5-HT(2A) receptor and the former possessed relatively higher binding affinity, which may account for cis-UA being a serotonin receptor agonist. Moreover, the molecular basis for the distinct binding affinities between the trans- and cis-UA with 5-HT(2A) receptor was also provided.
