Microwave-Assisted Syntheses of Amino Acid Ester Substituted Benzoic Acid Amides: Potential Inhibitors of Human CD81-Receptor HCV-E2 Interaction.

ABSTRACT: Results from our group showed benzyl salicylate to be a moderate inhibitor of the CD81-LEL-HCV-E2 interaction. To increase the biological activity, heterocyclic substituted benzoic acids were coupled to amino acid esters via microwave assisted DCC-reaction. The prepared compounds were tested for their inhibitory potency by means of a fluorescence labeled antibody assay system using HUH7.5 cells.

Substitution of the CD81 Binding Site and β-Sandwich Area in E2 of HCV in Cambodia.

Project description:The high genetic variability of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the main obstacle to developing a vaccine. E2 has attracted attention for vaccine development because targeting this protein could potentially overcome issues related to the genetic diversity of HCV. In this study, we analyzed HCV genes in the general population of Cambodia and investigated the E2 locus as a candidate for vaccine development. HCV sero-epidemiological surveys were conducted between the period 2010 and 2014, with an HCV RNA-positive rate of 1.3% (11/868). Follow-up blood samples were collected from four anti-HCV- and HCV RNA- positive patients (genotype 1b: 2 cases, 6e: 1 case, 6r: 1 case) after 4.12 years. Analysis of HCV full-length nucleotide sequences in paired specimens revealed that the mutation rates of HCV genotypes 1b and 6e/6r were 1.61-2.03 × 10-3 and 2.52-2.74 × 10-3 substitutions/site/year, respectively. Non-synonymous substitutions were detected in HVR1, the front layer of the CD81 binding site, and the β-sandwich, but not in the N-terminal region or adjacent to the CD81 binding site. Therefore, we conclude that the CD81 binding site is a promising locus for HCV vaccine development.

Lewis Acid Enabled Copper-Catalyzed Asymmetric Synthesis of Chiral ?-Substituted Amides.

Project description:Here we report that readily available silyl- and boron-based Lewis acids in combination with chiral copper catalysts are able to overcome the reactivity issues of unactivated enamides, known as the least reactive carboxylic acid derivatives, toward alkylation with organomagnesium reagents. Allowing unequaled chemo-reactivity and stereocontrol in catalytic asymmetric conjugate addition to enamides, the method is distinguished by its unprecedented reaction scope, allowing even the most challenging and synthetically important methylations to be accomplished with good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. This catalytic protocol tolerates a broad temperature range (-78 °C to ambient) and scale up (10 g), while the chiral catalyst can be reused without affecting overall efficiency. Mechanistic studies revealed the fate of the Lewis acid in each elementary step of the copper-catalyzed conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to enamides, allowing us to identify the most likely catalytic cycle of the reaction.

CD81 and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

Project description:Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection is a global public health problem affecting over 160 million individuals worldwide. Its symptoms include chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. HCV is an enveloped RNA virus mainly targeting liver cells and for which the initiation of infection occurs through a complex multistep process involving a series of specific cellular entry factors. This process is likely mediated through the formation of a tightly orchestrated complex of HCV entry factors at the plasma membrane. Among HCV entry factors, the tetraspanin CD81 is one of the best characterized and it is undoubtedly a key player in the HCV lifecycle. In this review, we detail the current knowledge on the involvement of CD81 in the HCV lifecycle, as well as in the immune response to HCV infection.

Poly(ortho ester amides): acid-labile temperature-responsive copolymers for potential biomedical applications.

Project description:A new, convenient pathway is developed to synthesize highly hydrolytically labile poly(ortho ester amide) (POEA) copolymers that overcomes some of the major weaknesses of the traditional methods of synthesizing poly(ortho esters) and their derivatives. A diamine monomer containing a built-in, stabilized ortho ester group was synthesized and was used for polycondensation with diacid esters, giving rise to a series of POEA copolymers with unique stimuli-responsive properties. The POEA undergoes temperature-responsive, reversible sol-gel phase transition in water. Phase diagrams of the POEA/H(2)O mixture reveal the concentration-dependent existence of different phases, including hydrogel and opaque or clear solution. Such behavior may be attributed to the temperature-dependent hydrogen-bonding involving the amide groups in the POEA backbone and hydrophobic interactions between POEA chains, and it is tunable by selecting diacid monomers with different chemical structures. The kinetics of POEA mass loss in physiological aqueous buffers and release of a model macromolecular drug, fluorescently labeled dextran, are nearly zero-order, suggesting predominantly surface-restricted polymer erosion. The rates of polymer erosion and drug release are much faster at pH 5.0 than pH 7.4. No cytotoxicity was found for the polymer extracts and the polymer degradation products at concentrations as high as 1 mg/mL. The normal morphology of fibroblasts cultured directly in contact with POEA films was not altered. These novel acid-labile temperature-responsive POEA copolymers may be potentially useful for a wide range of biomedical applications such as minimal invasive delivery of controlled-release drug formulations that respond to biological temperature and acidic-pH environments in cells and tissues.

Microwave-assisted synthesis of new substituted anilides of quinaldic acid.

Project description:In this study a one step method for the preparation of substituted anilides of quinoline-2-carboxylic acid was developed. This efficient innovative approach is based on the direct reaction of an acid or ester with substituted anilines using microwave irradiation. The optimized method was used for the synthesis of a series of eighteen substituted quinoline-2-carboxanilides. The molecular structure of N-(4-bromophenyl)quinoline-2-carboxamide as a model compound was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group with four molecules within the unit cell and the total structure of the compound can be described as "a slightly screwed boat".

Chemical energy assisted self-assembling of a porphyrin-substituted benzoic acid in complex environments.

Project description:Energy input plays a crucial role in the assembling of matter. In our present study, we utilize EDC as a chemical fuel to drive the molecular assembling of POR-COOH. POR-COOH will react with EDC to generate the intermediate POR-COOEDC first, which was well-solvated by solvent molecules. During the subsequent hydrolysis process, EDU and oversaturated POR-COOH molecules at high energy states will be formed and thus allowed the self-assembling of POR-COOH into 2D nanosheets. This chemical energy assisted assembling process could be performed not only under mild conditions with high spatial accuracy but also with high selectivity in complex environments.

Crystal structures of three anhydrous salts of the Lewis base 1,8-di-aza-bicyclo-[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) with the ring-substituted benzoic acid analogues 4-amino-benzoic acid, 3,5-di-nitro-benzoic acid and 3,5-di-nitro-salicylic acid.

Project description:The anhydrous salts of the Lewis base 1,8-di-aza-bicyclo-[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) with 4-amino-benzoic acid [1-aza-8-azoniabi-cyclo-[5.4.0]undec-7-ene 4-amino-benzoate, C9H17N2 (+)·C7H6NO2 (-) (I)], 3,5-di-nitro-benzoic acid [1-aza-8-azoniabi-cyclo-[5.4.0]undec-7-ene 3,5-di-nitro-benzoate, C9H17N2 (+)·C7H3N2O6 (-), (II)] and 3,5-di-nitro-salicylic acid (DNSA) [1-aza-8-azoniabi-cyclo-[5.4.0]undec-7-ene 2-hy-droxy-3,5-di-nitro-benzoate, C9H17N2 (+)·C7H3N2O7 (-), (III)] have been determined and their hydrogen-bonded structures are described. In both (II) and (III), the DBU cations have a common disorder in three of the C atoms of the six-membered ring moieties [site-occupancy factors (SOF) = 0.735 (3)/0.265 (3) and 0.686 (4)/0.314 (4), respectively], while in (III), there is additional rotational disorder in the DNSA anion, giving two sites (SOF = 0.72/0.28, values fixed) for the phenol group. In the crystals of (I) and (III), the cation-anion pairs are linked through a primary N-H⋯Ocarbox-yl hydrogen bond [2.665 (2) and 2.869 (3) Å, respectively]. In (II), the ion pairs are linked through an asymmetric three-centre R 1 (2)(4), N-H⋯O,O' chelate association. In (I), structure extension is through amine N-H⋯Ocarbox-yl hydrogen bonds between the PABA anions, giving a three-dimensional structure. The crystal structures of (II) and (III) are very similar, the cation-anion pairs being associated only through weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, giving in both overall two-dimensional layered structures lying parallel to (001). No π-π ring associations are present in any of the structures.

Syntheses and properties of thienyl-substituted dithienophenazines.

Project description:A series of dithienophenazines with different lengths of the oligomeric thiophene units (quaterthiophenes and sexithiophenes) was synthesized. The thiophene and phenazine units act as electron donors and acceptors, respectively, resulting in characteristic absorption spectra. The optical spectra were calculated using time-dependent density functional theory at the B3LYP/TZVP level and verify the experimental data. Adsorption of the dithienophenazines on highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) was investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy, showing that one of the compounds forms highly organized self-assembled monolayers.
