Microphotochemistry: 4,4'-Dimethoxybenzophenone mediated photodecarboxylation reactions involving phthalimides.

ABSTRACT: A series of 4,4'-dimethoxybenzophenone mediated intra- and intermolecular photodecarboxylation reactions involving phthalimides have been examined under microflow conditions. Conversion rates, isolated yields and chemoselectivities were compared to analogous reactions in a batch photoreactor. In all cases investigated, the microreactions gave superior results thus proving the superiority of microphotochemistry over conventional technologies.

Continuous Fluorescence Assays for Reactions Involving Adenine.

Project description:5'-Methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) and 5'-methylthioadenosine nucleosidase (MTAN) catalyze the phosphorolysis and hydrolysis of 5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA), respectively. Both enzymes have low KM values for their substrates. Kinetic assays for these enzymes are challenging, as the ultraviolet absorbance spectra for reactant MTA and product adenine are similar. We report a new assay using 2-amino-5'-methylthioadenosine (2AMTA) as an alternative substrate for MTAP and MTAN enzymes. Hydrolysis or phosphorolysis of 2AMTA forms 2,6-diaminopurine, a fluorescent and easily quantitated product. We kinetically characterize 2AMTA with human MTAP, bacterial MTANs and use 2,6-diaminopurine as a fluorescent substrate for yeast adenine phosphoribosyltransferase. 2AMTA was used as the substrate to kinetically characterize the dissociation constants for three-transition-state analogue inhibitors of MTAP and MTAN. Kinetic values obtained from continuous fluorescent assays with MTA were in good agreement with previously measured literature values, but gave smaller experimental errors. Chemical synthesis from ribose and 2,6-dichloropurine provided crystalline 2AMTA as the oxalate salt. Chemo-enzymatic synthesis from ribose and 2,6-diaminopurine produced 2-amino-S-adenosylmethionine for hydrolytic conversion to 2AMTA. Interaction of 2AMTA with human MTAP was also characterized by pre-steady-state kinetics and by analysis of the crystal structure in a complex with sulfate as a catalytically inert analogue of phosphate. This assay is suitable for inhibitor screening by detection of fluorescent product, for quantitative analysis of hits by rapid and accurate measurement of inhibition constants in continuous assays, and pre-steady-state kinetic analysis of the target enzymes.

Studies in the rearrangement reactions involving camphorquinone.

Project description:Skeletal rearrangements of camphor are well-known, however, those involving camphorquinone, its sibling, are rare. We have found that the diol derived from allylated camphorquinone undergoes iodine or bromine mediated deep-seated skeletal rearrangement to provide an interesting tricyclic ring system. The iodo group in the rearranged product provided convenient leverage for further functionalization. For example, it was converted into an azide and the azide was subjected to copper(i) mediated Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with acetylenes to obtain a terpene-triazole conjugate.

Metal-Assisted Hydrolysis Reactions Involving Lipids: A Review.

Project description:This report covers major advances in the use of metal ions and complexes to hydrolyze ester and phosphate ester lipid bonds. These metal-based Lewis acids have been investigated as catalysts to isolate fatty acids from biological sources, as probes to study phospholipid bilayer properties, as tools to examine signal transduction pathways, and as lead compounds toward the discovery of therapeutic agents. Metal ions that accelerate phosphate ester hydrolysis under mild conditions of temperature and pH may have the potential to mimic phospholipase activity in biochemical applications.

Transition metals enhance prebiotic depsipeptide oligomerization reactions involving histidine.

Project description:Biochemistry exhibits an intense dependence on metals. Here we show that during dry-down reactions, zinc and a few other transition metals increase the yield of long histidine-containing depsipeptides, which contain both ester and amide linkages. Our results suggest that interactions of proto-peptides with metal ions influenced early chemical evolution.

Enzymic mechanisms involving concomitant transfer and hydrolysis reactions.

Project description:The kinetic parameters of ten different enzymic mechanisms in which bimolecular transfer reactions occur concomitantly with the hydrolysis of the donor molecule have been studied. The usefulness of these parameters for making a choice of mechanism is discussed. The analysis has been extended to the use of alternative substrates in bimolecular transfer reactions that proceed without the hydrolysis of the donor molecule.

Reactions involving superoxide and normal and unstable haemoglobins.

Project description:Superoxide ions (O2-) oxidized oxyhaemoglobin to methaemoglobin and reduced methaemoglobin to oxyhaemoglobin. The reactions of superoxide and H2O2 with oxyhaemoglobin or methaemoglobin and their inhibition by superoxide dismutase or catalase were used to detect the formation of superoxide or H2O2 on autoxidation of oxyhaemoglobin. The rate of autoxidation was decreased at about 35% in the presence of both enzymes. The copper-catalysed autoxidation of Hb (haemoglobin) was also shown to involve superoxide production. Superoxide was released on autoxidation of three unstable haemoglobins and isolated alpha and beta chains, at rates faster than with Hb A. Reactions of superoxide with Hb Christchurch and Hb Belfast were identical with those with Hb A, and occurred at the same rate. Hb Koln contrasted with the other haemoglobins in that the thiol groups of residue beta-93 as well as the haem groups reacted with superoxide. Haemichrome formation from methaemoglobin occurred very rapidly with Hb Christchurch and Hb Belfast, as well as the isolated chains, compared with Hb A. The process did not involve superoxide production or utilization. The relative importance of autoxidation and superoxide production compared with haemichrome formation in the haemolytic process associated with these abnormal haemoglobins and thalassaemia is considered.

Bioactive cyclometalated phthalimides: design, synthesis and kinase inhibition.

Project description:The regioselective cyclometalation of 4-(pyridin-2-yl)phthalimide was exploited for the economical design of organometallic protein kinase inhibitors. 4-(Pyridin-2-yl)phthalimide can be prepared from inexpensive 4-bromophthalimide in just three steps including one Pd-catalyzed Stille cross-coupling. The versatility of this new ligand was demonstrated with the synthesis of ruthenium(II) half-sandwich as well as octahedral ruthenium(II) and iridium(III) complexes. The regioselectivity of the C-H activation in the course of the cyclometalation can be influenced by the reaction conditions and the steric demand of the introduced metal complex fragment. The biological activity of this new class of metalated phthalimides was evaluated by profiling two representative members against a large panel of human protein kinases. A cocrystal structure of one metallo-phthalimide with the protein kinase Pim1 confirmed an ATP-competitive binding with the intended hydrogen bonding between the phthalimide moiety and the hinge region of the ATP-binding site.

Some electron-transfer reactions involving carbodi-imide-modified cytochrome c.

Project description:The reaction kinetics of native and carbodi-imide-modified tuna and horse heart cytochromes c with both a strong (dithionite) and a relatively weak (ascorbate) reducing agent were studied over a wide range of conditions. In their reactions with dithionite both the native and modified cytochromes exhibit single exponential time courses. The effects of dithionite concentration and ionic strength on the rate of the reduction are complex and can best be explained in terms of the model proposed by Lambeth & Palmer [(1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 6095-6103]. According to this model, at low ionic strength the native proteins are reduced almost exclusively by S2O4(2-) whereas the modified proteins showed reactivity towards both S2O4(2-) and SO2.-. These findings are interpreted in terms of the different charge characteristics of the carbodi-imide-modified proteins relative to the native proteins. The findings that the modified proteins react with ascorbate in a biphasic manner are explained as arising from ascorbate binding to a reducible form of the protein, before electron transfer, with an equilibrium between the ascorbate-reducible form of the protein and a non-reducible form. Estimates were obtained for both the ascorbate equilibrium binding constant and the rate constant for the internal electron transfer for both the native and modified horse and tuna proteins. The effect of pH on the reactions indicates that the active reductant in all cases is ascorbate2-. The studies of ascorbate reactivity yield important information concerning the proposed correlation between ascorbate reducibility and the presence of a 695 nm-absorption band, and the study of dithionite reactivity illustrates the effect of protein charge and solution ionic strength on the relative contributions made by the species SO2.- and S2O4(2-) to the reduction of ferricytochrome c.

Electrooxidative Hofmann Rearrangement of Phthalimides to Access Anthranilate Derivatives.

Project description:A simple and efficient electrooxidative Hofmann rearrangement reaction of phthalimides was developed. Anthranilate derivatives were synthesized in moderate to good yields under green and mild conditions using phthalimides as a rearrangement precursor. This approach not only provides a strategy for synthesizing anthranilates and deuterated anthranilate derivatives with high deuteration efficiency but also realizes efficient conversion at the gram scale. A possible reaction mechanism is proposed.
