This is in part due to the typical co-planarity of the morpholine ring with the N-aryl substituent thanks to hyperconjugation. The authors generated dihedral scanning plots for various pyrimidine fragments using DFT calculations demonstrating that a co-planar arrangements are energetic minima for N-aryl morpholines, aryl dihydropyrans (DHP), and aryl cyclopropyl pyran (CPP) groups, but not for aryl THPs (Figure 3).

showing that cyclopropyl pyran (CPP) groups can serve as viable isosteres to N-pyrimidyl morpholines thanks in part to favorable cyclopropane σ -> aryl π interactions.

There are three main types of alkaloids: (1) true alkaloids, (2) protoalkaloids, and (3) pseudoalkaloids.

Morpholine is used in the USA by the cosmetic industry.

Its wide array of pharmacological activity includes anti-diabetic, anti-emetic, growth stimulant, anti-depressant, bronchodilator and anticancer.

The relative lipophilic efficiency and solubility of the CPP compound are remarkable given the removal of a nitrogen atom! By continuing you agree to the use of cookies.

The tetrahydropyran (THP) group looks nice on paper but the lack of hyperconjugation results in a very different ground state conformation from N-aryl … We all knew process scientists were good, but the Merck and Codexis teams just took it to another level!

For example, viloxazine and reboxetine are effective antidepressants, linezolid is an antibiotic for the treatment of Gram-positive bacteria, gefitinib is used for the treatment of breast and lung cancer, and dextromoramide is an analgesic.

Present review highlights the use of morpholine as a privileged scaffold in the synthesis of anti-cancer agents. A large body of in vivo studies has demonstrated morpholine's potential to not only increase potency but also provide compounds with desirable drug‐like properties and improved pharamacokinetics. This versatile scaffold, appropriately substituted, possesses a wide range of biological activities. Morpholine-based analogues may advantageously alter important pharmacokinetic properties such as lipophilicity and metabolic stability when grafted onto molecular scaffolds. The conformational landscape for the CPP derivative is proposed to be driven by favorable cyclopropane C-C σ -> aryl π interactions. Therefore, cinnamamide B6 could be introduced as a potent tyrosinase inhibitor that might be a promising lead in cosmetics, medicine and food industry.

Keeping this in mind, last five year's literature on morpholine used as anticancer agents has been reviewed and summarized in the paper herein.

Its wide array of pharmacological activity includes anti-diabetic, anti-emetic, growth stimulant, anti-depressant, bronchodilator and anticancer. Drugs Containing Alkaloids . Multi-drug resistance in cancer cases have emerged in the last few years and have led to the failure of many chemotherapeutic drugs. For context on the use of cyclopropanes as conformational tools in drug design, Gilles Ouvry has a nice post here. Browse Drugs. Wow.

Morpholine as anti-cancer drug acting through various targets has been summarized.
