Parallel synthesis of peptide-like macrocycles containing imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid.

ABSTRACT: We prepared a series of peptide-like 14-membered macrocycles containing an imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid scaffold by using known coupling reagents and protecting group strategies. Yields of the purified macrocycles were poor on average, yet seemingly independent of amino acid substitution or stereochemistry. The macrocycles retain some level of conformational variability as observed by both molecular modeling and X-ray crystallography. These macrocycles represent a new class of structures for further development and for future application in high-throughput screening against a variety of biological targets.

Parallel synthesis of an oligomeric imidazole-4,5-dicarboxamide library.

Project description:A library of oligomeric compounds was synthesized based on the imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid scaffold along with amino acid esters and chiral diamines derived from amino acids. The final compounds incorporate nonpolar amino acids (Leu, Phe, Trp), polar amino acids (Ser, Asp, Arg), and neutral amino acids (Gly, Ala), and were designed to be useful in screening for inhibitors of protein-protein interactions. Many of the protected and deprotected oligomers show evidence of conformational isomers persistent at room temperature in aqueous solution. A total of 317 final oligomers, out of 441 targeted compounds, were obtained in high analytical purity and of sufficient quantity to submit them for high-throughput screening as part of the NIH Roadmap.

Parallel synthesis of an imidazole-4,5-dicarboxamide library bearing amino acid esters and alkanamines.

Project description:The imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid scaffold is readily derivatized with amino acid esters and alkanamines to afford compounds with intramolecularly hydrogen bonded conformations that mimic substituted purines and therefore are hypothesized to be potential inhibitors of kinases through competitive binding to the ATP site. In this work, a total of 126 dissymmetrically disubstituted imidazole-4,5-dicarboxamides with amino acid ester and alkanamide substituents were prepared by parallel synthesis. The library members were purified by column chromatography on silica gel and the purified compounds characterized by LC-MS with LC detection at 214 nm. A selection of the final compounds was also analyzed by (1)H-NMR spectroscopy. The analytically pure final products have been submitted to the Molecular Library Small Molecule Repository (MLSMR) for screening in the Molecular Library Screening Center Network (MLSCN) as part of the NIH Roadmap.

Parallel synthesis of a library of symmetrically- and dissymmetrically-disubstituted imidazole-4,5-dicarboxamides bearing amino acid esters.

Project description:The imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid scaffold is readily derivatized with amino acid esters to afford symmetrically- and dissymmetrically-disubstituted imidazole-4,5-dicarboxamides with intramolecularly hydrogen bonded conformations that predispose the presentation of amino acid pharmacophores. In this work, a total of 45 imidazole-4,5-dicarboxamides bearing amino acid esters were prepared by parallel synthesis. The library members were purified by column chromatography on silica gel and the purified compounds characterized by LC-MS with LC detection at 214 nm. A selection of the final compounds was also analyzed by (1)H-NMR spectroscopy.

Parallel chemoenzymatic synthesis of sialosides containing a C5-diversified sialic acid.

Project description:A convenient chemoenzymatic strategy for synthesizing sialosides containing a C5-diversified sialic acid was developed. The alpha2,3- and alpha2,6-linked sialosides containing a 5-azido neuraminic acid synthesized by a highly efficient one-pot three-enzyme approach were converted to C5''-amino sialosides, which were used as common intermediates for chemical parallel synthesis to quickly generate a series of sialosides containing various sialic acid forms.

Solid Phase Synthesis of Fluorosulfate Containing Macrocycles for Chemoproteomic Workflows

Project description:Macrocyclic peptides are attractive for chemoproteomic applications due to their modular synthesis and potential for high target selectivity. We describe a solid phase synthesis method for the efficient generation of libraries of small macrocycles that contain an electrophile and alkyne handle. The modular synthesis produces libraries that can be directly screened using simple SDS-PAGE readouts and then optimal lead molecules applied to proteomic analysis. We generated a library of 480 macrocyclic peptides containing the weakly reactive fluorosulfate (OSF) electrophile. Initial screening of a subset of the library containing each of the various diversity elements identified initial molecules of interest. The corresponding positional and confirmational isomers were then screened to select molecules that showed specific protein labeling patterns that were dependent on the probe structure. The most promising hits were applied to standard chemoproteomic workflows to identify protein targets. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of rapid, on-resin synthesis of diverse macrocyclic electrophiles to generate new classes of covalent ligands.

Synthesis and characterization of two piperazine containing macrocycles and their transition metal complexes.

Project description:Rigidification of the ligand scaffolds has been a particular mechanism of interest employed to achieve properties suitable for MRI contrast, catalysis, or other applications of metal complexes. Towards the goal of targeting a 15-anePyN5Pip type ligand, a serendipitous isolation of a 30-anePy2N10Pip2 aza-macrocycle was achieved, instead. X-ray diffraction and determination of pKa events were carried out and compared to 17-anePyN5Pip. Furthermore, the X-ray diffraction of the Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of 17-anePyN5Pip was achieved and compared to previous reports of other first-row transition metal derivatives of this ligand. Determination of the log β with both 30-anePy2N10Pip2 and 17-anePyN5Pip with the divalent MnZn metal-ion series was used to demonstrate the impact that the piperazine ring plays compared to other, less rigid macrocycles reported to date.

Synthesis of the ?,?-dicarboxylic acid precursor of biotin by the canonical fatty acid biosynthetic pathway.

Project description:Biotin synthesis requires the C7 ?,?-dicarboxylic acid, pimelic acid. Although pimelic acid was known to be primarily synthesized by a head to tail incorporation of acetate units, the synthetic mechanism was unknown. It has recently been demonstrated that in most bacteria the biotin pimelate moiety is synthesized by a modified fatty acid synthetic pathway in which the biotin synthetic intermediates are O-methyl esters disguised to resemble the canonical intermediates of the fatty acid synthetic pathway. Upon completion of the pimelate moiety, the methyl ester is cleaved. A very restricted set of bacteria have a different pathway in which the pimelate moiety is formed by cleavage of fatty acid synthetic intermediates by BioI, a member of the cytochrome P450 family.

Synthesis of a pH-sensitive nitrilotriacetic linker to peptide transduction domains to enable intracellular delivery of histidine imidazole ring-containing macromolecules.

Project description:Intracellular delivery of functional macromolecules using peptide transduction domains (PTDs) is an exciting technology with both experimental and therapeutic applications. Recent data indicate that PTD-mediated transduction occurs via fluid-phase macropinocytosis involving an intracellular pH drop to approximately 5. Nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA)-coordinated metals avidly bind hexahistidine-tagged macromolecules, including peptides and proteins. Histidine's imidazole ring has a pK(a) of 6, making this an attractive target for the biological pH drop of PTD-mediated macropinocytotic delivery. The objective of this study was to develop a pH-sensitive PTD delivery peptide (NTA(3)-PTD). We demonstrate the in vitro function of this novel peptide by delivering fluorescently labeled peptides (1.6 kDa) and functional enzymes, beta-galactosidase (119 kDa) and Cre recombinase (37 kDa). Furthermore, the NTA(3)-PTD peptide was able to deliver functional Cre recombinase in an in vivo mouse model.

2-p-Tolyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole.

Project description:In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(10)H(12)N(2), the six- and five-membered rings are almost co-planar, forming a dihedral angle of 3.56 (8)°. In the crystal structure, neighbouring mol-ecules are linked together by inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds into one-dimensional infinite chains along the c axis. The crystal structure, is further stabilized by weak inter-molecular C-H⋯π and π-π stacking [centroid-centroid distance = 3.8892 (9) Å] inter-actions.
