Determining the enantioselectivity of chiral catalysts by mass spectrometric screening of their racemic forms.

ABSTRACT: The enantioselectivity of a chiral catalyst can be determined from its racemic form by mass spectrometric screening of a nonequal mixture of two mass-labeled quasienantiomeric substrates. The presented method opens up new possibilities for evaluating catalyst structures that are not readily available in enantiomerically pure form.

Conformational Control of Chiral Amido-Thiourea Catalysts Enables Improved Activity and Enantioselectivity.

Project description:While aryl pyrrolidinoamido-thioureas derived from ?-amino acids are effective catalysts in a number of asymmetric transformations, they exist as mixtures of slowly interconverting amide rotamers. Herein, the compromising role of amide bond isomerism is analyzed experimentally and computationally. A modified catalyst structure that exists almost exclusively as a single amide rotamer is introduced. This modification is shown to result in improved reactivity and enantioselectivity by minimizing competing reaction pathways.

Selecting Chiral BINOL-Derived Phosphoric Acid Catalysts: General Model To Identify Steric Features Essential for Enantioselectivity.

Project description:Choosing the optimal catalyst for a new transformation is challenging because the ideal molecular requirements of the catalyst for one reaction do not always simply translate to another. Large groups at the 3,3' positions of the binaphthol rings are important for efficient stereoinduction but if they are too large this can lead to unusual or poor results. By applying a quantitative steric assessment of the substituents at the 3,3' positions of the binaphthol ring, we have systematically studied the effect of modulating this group on enantioselectivity for a wide range of reactions involving imines, and verified this analysis using ONIOM calculations. We have shown that in most reactions, the stereochemical outcome depends on both proximal and remote sterics. Summarising detailed calculations into a simple qualitative model identifies and explains the steric features required for high selectivity. This model is consistent with seventy seven papers reporting reactions (over 1000 transformations in total), and provides a straightforward decision tree for selecting the best catalyst.

Mass spectrometric screening of ovarian cancer with serum glycans.

Project description:Changes of glycosylation pattern in serum proteins have been linked to various diseases including cancer, suggesting possible development of novel biomarkers based on the glycomic analysis. In this study, N-linked glycans from human serum were quantitatively profiled by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) and compared between healthy controls and ovarian cancer patients. A training set consisting of 40 healthy controls and 40 ovarian cancer cases demonstrated an inverse correlation between P value of ANOVA and area under the curve (AUC) of each candidate biomarker peak from MALDI-TOF MS, providing standards for the classification. A multibiomarker panel composed of 15 MALDI-TOF MS peaks resulted in AUC of 0.89, 80~90% sensitivity, and 70~83% specificity in the training set. The performance of the biomarker panel was validated in a separate blind test set composed of 23 healthy controls and 37 ovarian cancer patients, leading to 81~84% sensitivity and 83% specificity with cut-off values determined by the training set. Sensitivity of CA-125, the most widely used ovarian cancer marker, was 74% in the training set and 78% in the test set, respectively. These results indicate that MALDI-TOF MS-mediated serum N-glycan analysis could provide critical information for the screening of ovarian cancer.

Proteome-wide drug screening using mass spectrometric imaging of bead-arrays.

Project description:A fundamental challenge in the drug discovery process is to develop compounds with high efficacy and minimal side-effects. We describe a new approach to proteome-wide drug screening for detection of on- and off-target binding which combines the advantages of mass spectrometry with microarray technology. The method involves matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometric imaging (MALDI-MSI) of agarose micro-beads randomly arrayed at high-density in custom micro-well plates. Each bead carries a unique protein target and a corresponding photocleavable mass-tag for coding (PC-Mass-Tag). Compounds bound to specific protein beads and a photo-released coding PC-Mass-Tag are detected simultaneously using MALDI-MSI. As an initial demonstration of this approach, two kinase-targeted drugs, Dasatinib and Brigatinib (AP26113), were simultaneously screened against a model 50-member kinase-bead library. A MALDI-MSI scan performed at the equivalent density of 495,000 beads in the footprint of a microscope slide yielded 100% sensitivity for detecting known strong interactions with no false positives.

S-Methylidene Agents: Preparation of Chiral Non-Racemic Heterocycles.

Project description:Reaction of sulfur ylide with aldehyde, imine, and ketone functionality affords the desired three-membered heterocycle in excellent yield. The sulfur ylide is generated in situ upon decarboxylation of carboxymethylsulfonium betaine functionality. Of the seven carboxymethylsulfonium betaine derivatives surveyed, the highest level of conversion of ?-acceptor to heterocycle was obtained having S-methyl and S-phenyl functionality bound to a thioacetate derivative. Methylene aziridinations and epoxidations involving the decarboxylation of carboxymethylsulfonium betaine functionality complements existing technologies with the advantages of the reaction protocol, levels of conversion and scope. While moderate levels of diastereocontrol were observed in the aziridination of imine functionality, the four oxiranes resolved using Jacobsen's Co(II)-salen complex were obtained in both high yield and enantioselectivity. The isolated chiral non-racemic oxiranes constitute the formal synthesis of chelonin-B and combretastatin starting from 3-bromo-4-methoxybenzaldehyde and 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde respectively.

Enantioselectivity-Evaluation of Chiral Copper(II) Complexes Coordinated by Novel Chiral Tetradentate Ligands for Free Amino Acids by Mass Spectrometry Coupled With the Isotopically Labeled Enantiomer Method.

Project description:A series of copper(II) complexes with chiral tetradentate ligands, N,N'-ethylene- bis(S-amino acid methyl amide or methyl ester) prepared from S-alanine, S-phenylalanine, S-valine or S-proline, was generated in methanol. The copper complexes provided three component complexes in the presence of a free chiral amino acid. The enantioselectivity for the amino acid was evaluated by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry coupled with the deuterium-labeled enantiomer method and these copper complexes were found to exhibit high enantioselectivity for free amino acids having bulky side chains. This result suggests that steric interaction between the tetradentate ligand and free amino acid was a major factor in chiral recognition. The copper complex with a chiral tetradentate ligand prepared from S-proline showed opposite enantioselectivity to copper complexes consisting of tetradentate ligands prepared from other S-amino acids. The conformational difference of the tetradentate ligand in the copper complex was found to be significant for enantioselectivity.

Mass spectrometric method for determining the uronic acid epimerization in heparan sulfate disaccharides generated using nitrous acid.

Project description:Heparan sulfate (HS) glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) regulate a host of biological functions. To better understand their biological roles, it is necessary to gain understanding about the structure of HS, which requires identification of the sulfation pattern as well as the uronic acid epimerization. In order to model HS structure, it is necessary to quantitatively profile depolymerization products. To date, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) methods for profiling heparin lyase decomposition products have been shown. These enzymes, however, destroy information about uronic acid epimerization. Deaminative cleavage using nitrous acid (HONO) is a classic method for GAG depolymerization that retains uronic acid epimerization. Several chromatographic methods have been used for analysis of deaminative cleavage products. The chromatographic methods have the disadvantage that there is no direct readout on the structures producing the observed peaks. This report demonstrates a porous graphitized carbon (PGC)-MS method for the quantification of HONO generated disaccharides to obtain information about the sulfation pattern and uronic acid epimerization. Here, we demonstrate the separation and identification of uronic acid epimers as well as geometric sulfation isomers. The results are comparable to those expected for benchmark HS and heparin samples. The data demonstrate the utility of PGC-MS for quantification of HS nitrous acid depolymerization products for structural analysis of HS and heparin.

Chiral Thioxanthones as Modulators of P-glycoprotein: Synthesis and Enantioselectivity Studies.

Project description:Recently, thioxanthone derivatives were found to protect cells against toxic P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates, acting as potent inducers/activators of this efflux pump. The study of new P-gp chiral modulators produced from thioxanthone derivatives could clarify the enantioselectivity of this ABC transporter towards this new class of modulators. The aim of this study was to evaluate the P-gp modulatory ability of four enantiomeric pairs of new synthesized chiral aminated thioxanthones (ATxs) 1-8, studying the influence of the stereochemistry on P-gp induction/ activation in cultured Caco-2 cells. The data displayed that all the tested compounds (at 20 ?M) significantly decreased the intracellular accumulation of a P-gp fluorescent substrate (rhodamine 123) when incubated simultaneously for 60 min, demonstrating an increased activity of the efflux, when compared to control cells. Additionally, all of them except ATx 3 (+), caused similar results when the accumulation of the P-gp fluorescent substrate was evaluated after pre-incubating cells with the test compounds for 24 h, significantly reducing the rhodamine 123 intracellular accumulation as a result of a significant increase in P-gp activity. However, ATx 2 (-) was the only derivative that, after 24 h of incubation, significantly increased P-gp expression. These results demonstrated a significantly increased P-gp activity, even without an increase in P-gp expression. Therefore, ATxs 1-8 were shown to behave as P-gp activators. Furthermore, no significant differences were detected in the activity of the protein when comparing the enantiomeric pairs. Nevertheless, ATx 2 (-) modulates P-gp expression differently from its enantiomer, ATx 1 (+). These results disclosed new activators and inducers of P-gp and highlight the existence of enantioselectivity in the induction mechanism.

Organocatalytic synthesis of chiral tetrasubstituted allenes from racemic propargylic alcohols.

Project description:Although chiral allene preparation via formal SN2' nucleophilic substitutions of enantioenriched propargylic derivatives or metal-catalyzed reactions of racemic propargylic derivatives has attracted considerable attention and found applications in many areas of research, direct use of propargylic alcohols instead of propargylic derivatives for catalytic asymmetric allene synthesis is unknown. Here, we show that a highly enantioselective synthesis of tetrasubstituted allenes from racemic propargylic alcohols has been realized by organocatalysis with good efficiency (up to 96% yield and 97% ee). The intermolecular C-C and C-S bond formation was achieved efficiently with simultaneous stereocontrol over the axial chirality. Furthermore, an adjacent quaternary stereocenter could also be constructed. Mechanistically, the reaction may involve efficient stereocontrol on the propargylic cation by its chiral counter anion or 1,8-conjugate addition of para-quinone methides. In sharp contrast to previous central chirality construction, this process employs quinone methides for axial chirality construction.Axially chiral allenes that are normally present in natural products, bioactive molecules, organocatalysts, and functional materials are usually produced from propargylic derivatives. Here, the authors show direct use of propargylic alcohols for catalytic asymmetric allene synthesis.
