Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a new group of compounds called molybdenum CO-RM compounds, which can be used to treat liver disease and inflammatory diseases. These compounds have specific formulas and can be prepared using various methods. The technical effect of this patent is the discovery and validation of new compounds that can be used to treat important medical conditions.

Problems solved by technology

Carbon monoxide administration by inhalation is not practical for clinical applications, as it requires special delivery devices such as ventilators, face masks, tents, or portable inhalers.
Moreover, carbon monoxide delivery to therapeutic targets by inhalation is inefficient, because it involves transport of carbon monoxide by hemoglobin.
Therefore, the doses required to deliver carbon monoxide to therapeutic targets in diseased tissues are likely to be associated with adverse effects.
The identification of CO-RMs that are best suited for the treatment of a particular disease remains a major challenge of CO-RM development.

Preparation of Mo Complexes

Synthesis of Mo(CO)3(η6-C7H8)

[0232]The preparation of the molybdenum tri-CO complex Mo(CO)3(η6-C7H8) is described in the literature (see, e.g., W. A. Herrmann and A. Salzer, Synthetic Methods of Organometallic and Inorganic Chemistry, volume 1, Georg Thieme Verlag, New York, 1996, p 129; and Abel et al., J. Chem. Soc. (1958) 4559).

Preparation of Tricarbonyl[tris(isocyanoacetic acid)]Mo(0) (1-b)

[0233]

[0234]Preparation of tricarbonyl[tris(isocyanoacetic acid ethyl ester)]Mo(O) (1-a): Mo(CO)3(η6-C7H8) (2.1 g; 7.72 mmol; 272.1117 g / mol) was dissolved in 40 mL of MeOH to give a red, slightly turbid solution. CNCH2CO2Et (3 eq.; 2.53 mL; 23.15 mmol; 113.11 g / mol; 1.035 g / mL) was dissolved in 20 mL MeOH and added to the previous solution. The red solution immediately turned darker, greenish, and gradually became lighter. The solution was stirred at room temperature for 45 min, when a TLC analysis (hexane:ethyl acetate 1:3) showed that (Mo(CO)3(η6-C7H8)) had been c...

CO-Release Kinetics

[0275]The CO release kinetics of Compounds 1b, 2b, 3b, 4b, and 5b was performed in vitro in HEPES buffer (pH 7.4) or in phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and in the presence of liver microsomes. The quantization of the released CO was performed according to Vreman et al. Anal. Biochem. (2005) 341: 280-289 using a Gas Chromatograph with a Reducing Compound Photometer detector (GC-RCP; Peak Laboratories, Mountain View, Calif.), which allows quantifying CO in gas mixtures at concentrations as low as 1-2 parts per billion (ppb).

General Method for the Determination of CO Release in HEPES Buffer

[0276]The CO release kinetics of all compounds was evaluated in 50 mM HEPES buffer (pH 7.4) in a sealed 8-mL vial. Stock solutions (5 mM) of the compounds were prepared in PBS buffer (each compound was soluble in PBS after the addition of 3 equivalents of NaOH) and 10 μL were added to 990 μL of 50 mM HEPES buffer (final concentration in buffer was 50 μM). Since light activation can relea...

Accumulation of Carbon Monoxide (CO) in Tissues after Administration of Carbon-Monoxide Releasing Molecule

[0298]Carbon monoxide-releasing molecules (CO-RMs) are carriers of carbon monoxide (CO) and can release CO in vivo. CO can bind to hemoglobin in the blood and to various heme proteins in cells. Vreman et al. Anal Biochem 341:280-289 describes a method to release CO bound to tissues into the gas phase, and quantify it using GC-RCP chromatography. We applied this methodology to assay CO in various tissues of mice treated with CO-RMs (see Example 2, herein). However, since the CO release method of Vreman (in vitro incubation with sulfosalicylic acid) also releases CO from the CO-RM, the CO released from tissue samples represents CO bound to tissue proteins and CO from CO-RM compound accumulated in tissue. For CO-RM compounds with slow CO release rates in vivo, the CO measured at the earliest sampling point (5 min after CO-RM administration) may therefore mostly be a measure for the...
