Regioselective Domino Metathesis of 7-Oxanorbornenes and Its Application to the Synthesis of Biologically Active Glutamate Analogues.

ABSTRACT: A highly regioselective domino metathesis reaction of 7-oxanorbornene was developed that employed an intramolecular association of an amide carbonyl group to a ruthenium metal centre. By using this reaction, twelve glutamate analogues inspired by dysiherbaine were efficiently synthesized over 12-14 steps; one of the analogues exhibited bioactivity consistent with central nervous system depression.

Regioselective Domino Metathesis of Unsymmetrical 7-Oxanorbornenes with Electron-Rich Vinyl Acetate toward Biologically Active Glutamate Analogues.

Project description:In this article a regioselective domino metathesis reaction of unsymmetrical 7-oxanorbornenes, readily available by a tandem Ugi/Diels-Alder reaction as a key step, promoted by the Hoveyda-Grubbs second-generation catalyst in the presence of electron-rich vinyl acetate as a cross metathesis (CM) substrate is reported. The mechanism for the unusually high regioselectivity observed in the CM reaction was investigated, and a reaction course where a Fischer-type carbene ["Ru"= CH(OAc)] generates a steric interaction is proposed. The metathesis products were further converted to four artificial glutamate analogues whose structures were inspired by naturally derived excitatory glutamate analogues, dysiherbaine and neodysiherbaine. Interestingly, one of the synthetic analogues (28a) induced a cataleptic state in mice. Further electrophysiological studies suggest that 28a might inhibit excitatory synaptic transmission by a yet unknown indirect pathway.

Direct synthesis of imino-C-nucleoside analogues and other biologically active iminosugars.

Project description:Iminosugars have attracted increasing attention as chemical probes, chaperones and leads for drug discovery. Despite several clinical successes, their de novo synthesis remains a significant challenge that also limits their integration with modern high-throughput screening technologies. Herein, we describe a unique synthetic strategy that converts a wide range of acetaldehyde derivatives into iminosugars and imino-C-nucleoside analogues in two or three straightforward transformations. We also show that this strategy can be readily applied to the rapid production of indolizidine and pyrrolizidine iminosugars. The high levels of enantio- and diastereoselectivity, excellent overall yields, convenience and broad substrate scope make this an appealing process for diversity-oriented synthesis, and should enable drug discovery efforts.

An efficient synthesis of the guaiane sesquiterpene (-)-isoguaiene by domino metathesis.

Project description:(-)-Isoguaiene was prepared from (S)-citronellal in only 9-10 steps with good overall yields. Either a trienyne or a dienediyne metathesis and highly diastereoselective organocatalytic Michael additions of aldehydes derived from (S)-citronellal served as the key transformations.

Synthesis of biologically active biotinylated muramyl dipeptides.

Project description:Muramyl dipeptide (MDP) is believed to interact with an innate immune receptor, Nod2. To identify the cellular receptor for MDP, we have synthesized biotinylated MDP isomers and tested the ability of these compounds to activate Nod2 in a cell-based assay. We found that the modification of MDP does not perturb its ability to activate Nod2. These tagged versions of MDP will be useful to identify the cellular receptor of the immunostimulatory molecules.

Total synthesis of biologically active 20S-hydroxyvitamin D3.

Project description:A total synthetic strategy of 20S-hydroxyvitamin D3 [20S-(OH)D3] involving modified synthesis of key intermediates 7 and 12, Grignard reaction to stereoselectively generate 20S-OH and Wittig-Horner coupling to establish D3 framework, was completed in 16 steps with an overall yield of 0.4%. The synthetic 20S-(OH)D3 activated vitamin D receptor (VDR) and initiated the expression of downstream genes. In addition, 20S-(OH)D3 showed similar inhibitory potency as calcitriol [1,25(OH)2D3] on proliferation of melanoma cells.

Synthesis of Biologically Active Molecules through Multicomponent Reactions.

Project description:Focusing on the literature progress since 2002, the present review explores the highly significant role that multicomponent reactions (MCRs) have played as a very important tool for expedite synthesis of a vast number of organic molecules, but also, highlights the fact that many of such molecules are biologically active or at least have been submitted to any biological screen. The selected papers covered in this review must meet two mandatory requirements: (1) the reported products should be obtained via a multicomponent reaction; (2) the reported products should be biologically actives or at least tested for any biological property. Given the diversity of synthetic approaches utilized in MCRs, the highly diverse nature of the biological activities evaluated for the synthesized compounds, and considering their huge structural variability, much of the reported data are organized into concise schemes and tables to facilitate comparison, and to underscore the key points of this review.

A Domino 10-Step Total Synthesis of FR252921 and Its Analogues, Complex Macrocyclic Immunosuppressants.

Project description:FR252921, FR252922, and FR256523 are a family of potent macrocyclic polyene immunosuppressive agents with a novel mode of action. However, the lack of an efficient and flexible synthesis has hindered further biological studies, mostly due to the fact that the natural products appear to be kinetic isomers regarding the triene moiety. Herein, we report the development and application of an unprecedented, unique domino Suzuki-Miyaura/4π-electrocyclic ring-opening macrocyclization, resulting in a concise, unified, and stereoselective synthetic route to these complex targets in only 10 steps. This in turn enables ready access to a range of unnatural analogues, among which several compounds showed inhibition of T-lymphocyte proliferation at levels equal or superior to those of the natural products themselves.

Substrate controlled, regioselective carbopalladation for the one-pot synthesis of C4-substituted tetrahydroisoquinoline analogues.

Project description:6-Exo-trig cyclization reaction through regioselective carbopalladation was demonstrated with N-(2-halobenzyl)-N-allylamines to furnish the corresponding C4-substituted tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives. The scope of the reaction was extended to the synthesis of C4-quaternary tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives also. The nature of the substituent on the olefin moiety dictates the course of the carbopalladation sequence. Regioselective carbopalladation is substantiated by performing the reaction with unsymmetrical diallylated amine substrates.
