Family-level stereoselective synthesis and biological evaluation of pyrrolomorpholine spiroketal natural product antioxidants.

ABSTRACT: The pyranose spiroketal natural products pollenopyrroside A and shensongine A (also known as xylapyrroside A, ent-capparisine B) have been synthesized by stereoselective spirocyclizations of a common C1-functionalized glycal precursor. In conjunction with our previously reported syntheses of the corresponding furanose isomers, this provides a versatile family-level synthesis of the pyrrolomorpholine spiroketal natural products and analogues. In rat mesangial cells, hyperglycemia-induced production of reactive oxygen species, which is implicated in diabetic nephropathy, was inhibited by pollenopyrroside A and shensongine A with mid-?M IC₅₀ values, while unnatural C2-hydroxy analogues exhibited more potent, sub-?M activity.

Stereoselective Synthesis of the Isomers of Notoincisol A: Assigment of the Absolute Configuration of this Natural Product and Biological Evaluation.

Project description:The total syntheses of all stereoisomers of notoincisol A, a recently isolated natural product with potential anti-inflammatory activity, are reported. The asymmetric synthesis was conducted employing a lipase-mediated kinetic resolution, which enables easy access to all required chiral building blocks with the aim of establishing the absolute configuration of the naturally occurring isomer. This was achieved by comparison of optical properties of the isolated compound with the synthetic derivatives obtained. Moreover, an assessment of the biological activity on PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma) as a prominent receptor related to inflammation is reported. Only the natural isomer was found to activate the PPARγ receptor, and this phenomenon could be explained based on molecular docking studies. In addition, the pharmacological profiles of the isomers were determined using the GABAA (gamma-aminobutyric acid A) ion channel receptor as a representative target for allosteric modulation related to diverse CNS activities. These compounds were found to be weak allosteric modulators of the α1β3 and α1β2γ2 receptor subtypes.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of the Antimicrobial Natural Product Lipoxazolidinone?A.

Project description:Natural products have historically been a major source of antibiotics and therefore novel scaffolds are constantly of interest. The lipoxazolidinone family of marine natural products, with an unusual 4-oxazolidinone heterocycle at their core, represents a new scaffold for antimicrobial discovery; however, questions regarding their mechanism of action and high lipophilicity have likely slowed follow-up studies. Herein, we report the first synthesis of lipoxazolidinone?A, 15 structural analogues to explore its active pharmacophore, and initial resistance and mechanism of action studies. These results suggest that 4-oxazolidinones are valuable scaffolds for antimicrobial development and reveal simplified lead compounds for further optimization.

Stereoselective semi-synthesis of the neuroprotective natural product, serofendic acid.

Project description:We have recently demonstrated a synthetic biology-enabled semi-synthesis of the potent neuroprotective compound, serofendic acid. An engineered bacterium produces ent-atis-16-en-19-oic acid, which has six of eight chiral carbons configured with the appropriate stereochemistry. Setting the configuration of the C15 hydroxyl group and C16 methylene is a critical step that occurs late in each published total or formal synthesis. Here we explore the use of alternative reducing reagents, stereochemical directing agents, reaction order, and product recycling to improve the diastereoselectivity of this step. We find that installing and oxidizing the C17 methylsulfide prior to reducing the C15 ketone provides the greatest yield of the desired C15,C16 diastereomer. This represents an improved total synthesis of serofendic acid.

Dictating Thermodynamic Control through Tethering: Applications to Stereoselective Bis-Spiroketal Synthesis.

Project description:Approaches to stereocontrol that invoke thermodynamic control fail when two or more potential products are energetically similar, but rational structural perturbations can be employed to break the energetic degeneracy and provide selective transformations. This manuscript illustrates that tethering is an effective approach for the stereoselective construction of bis-spiroketals with thermodynamically similar stereoisomers, providing a new approach to set remote stereocenters and prepare complex structures that have not previously been accessed stereoselectively.

Total synthesis and biological evaluation of the tetramic acid based natural product harzianic acid and its stereoisomers.

Project description:The bioactive natural product harzianic acid was prepared for the first time in just six steps (longest linear sequence) with an overall yield of 22%. The identification of conditions to telescope amide bond formation and a Lacey-Dieckmann reaction into one pot proved important. The three stereoisomers of harzianic acid were also prepared, providing material for comparison of their biological activity. While all of the isomers promoted root growth, improved antifungal activity was unexpectedly associated with isomers in the enantiomeric series opposite that of harzianic acid.

Biomimetic Total Synthesis and the Biological Evaluation of Natural Product (-)-Fargesone A as a Novel FXR Agonist.

Project description:Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, plays an important role in maintaining or reversing metabolic homeostasis during the development of liver diseases. However, developing FXR modulators to intervene in FXR-related diseases is still an unmet clinical need. Therefore, it is significant to develop novel small-molecule agonists for drug discovery targeting FXR. Through a high-throughput chemical screen and follow-up biological validations, we first identified the natural product Fargesone A (FA) as a potent and selective FXR agonist. The limited, variable supply of FA from natural product isolation, however, has impeded its biological exploration and potential drug development. Accordingly, we have developed a biomimetic and scalable total synthesis of FA in nine steps that provides a solution to the supply of FA. Enabled by chemical synthesis, the in vivo efficacy of FA has been further investigated. The results showed that FA alleviates hepatocyte lipid accumulation and cell death in an FXR-dependent manner. Moreover, treatment of bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced liver disorder with FA ameliorates pathological features in mice. Therefore, our work lays the foundation to develop new small-molecule FXR agonists as a potential therapy for liver diseases.

Capturing Biological Activity in Natural Product Fragments by Chemical Synthesis.

Project description:Natural products have had an immense influence on science and have directly led to the introduction of many drugs. Organic chemistry, and its unique ability to tailor natural products through synthesis, provides an extraordinary approach to unlock the full potential of natural products. In this Review, an approach based on natural product derived fragments is presented that can successfully address some of the current challenges in drug discovery. These fragments often display significantly reduced molecular weights, reduced structural complexity, a reduced number of synthetic steps, while retaining or even improving key biological parameters such as potency or selectivity. Examples from various stages of the drug development process up to the clinic are presented. In addition, this process can be leveraged by recent developments such as genome mining, antibody-drug conjugates, and computational approaches. All these concepts have the potential to identify the next generation of drug candidates inspired by natural products.

Total Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Apratoxin E and Its C30 Epimer: Configurational Reassignment of the Natural Product.

Project description:Apratoxin E provided the inspiration for the design of apratoxin A/E hybrids under preclinical development. Through total synthesis using two different strategies, it was determined that the originally proposed configuration of the thiazoline at C30 is opposite from that in apratoxin A, in contrast to previous assumptions on biosynthetic grounds. The epimer and true natural apratoxin E were synthesized, and the biological activities were evaluated.
