Presentation Transcript

  1. Directed ortho Metalation (DoM) of 1,8-Naphthalene diethylamides:Research Towards Nerve Growth Factor Inhibitors. John Stephenson, Christopher Jones†, Victor Snieckus† †Department of Chemistry, Queen’s University, Kingston, ON, CANADA K7L 3N6

  2. Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) • Involved with the neuronal development in the Central Nervous System and Peripheral Nervous System. • Nerve Growth Factor is implicated in Alzheimer’s, epilepsy, stroke and pain. • Production of protein is stimulated in patients suffering from Arthritis pain. • Inhibition of NGF causes reduction in pain levels. Shamovsky,et al. J Am Chem Soc, 1999, 121, 9797-9806
