Amidation Strategy for Final-Step ?-Hydroxytropolone Diversification.

ABSTRACT: ?-Hydroxytropolones (?HTs) are excellent metalloenzyme-inhibiting fragments that have been the basis for the development of potent inhibitors of various therapeutically important enzymes. The following manuscript describes a final-step amidation approach for ?HT diversification. The method takes advantage of a scalable, chromatography-free synthesis of a carboxylic acid-appended ?HT, and in the present manuscript we describe the synthesis of eight amide-containing ?HTs, three of which we envision using as chemical probes. We expect that the general strategy will find widespread usage in both chemical biology and medicinal chemistry studies on ?HTs.

Fluorous-Phase Approach to α-Hydroxytropolone Synthesis.

Project description:α-Hydroxytropolones (αHTs) are troponoids that demonstrate inhibition against an array of therapeutically significant targets, making them potential drug leads for several human diseases. We have utilized a recently discovered one-pot three-component oxidopyrylium cycloaddition in a solid-supported synthesis of αHTs. Though the procedure is time efficient and generates assay-ready molecules, the system suffers from low yields and an inability to perform reaction modifications on resin-bound intermediates. In order to combat these issues with the solid-phase platform, we incorporated fluorous tags into our synthetic route. Through the implementation of fluorous phase chemistry, we demonstrate a substantial increase in the overall yield of αHTs, as well as an ability to execute metal-catalyzed cross coupling and amide coupling on fluorous tagged intermediates. We also show that tagged molecules can be separated from nonfluorous impurities, and vice versa, by utilizing fluorous liquid-liquid and solid-phase extractions. Hence, these proof-of-principle investigations describe the viability of a fluorous phase approach to αHT synthesis and its potential to serve as a combinatorial technique to produce structurally diverse substrates.

Improved protein kinase C affinity through final step diversification of a simplified salicylate-derived bryostatin analog scaffold.

Project description:Bryostatin 1, in clinical trials or preclinical development for cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and a first-of-its-kind strategy for HIV/AIDS eradication, is neither readily available nor optimally suited for clinical use. In preceding work, we disclosed a new class of simplified bryostatin analogs designed for ease of access and tunable activity. Here we describe a final step diversification strategy that provides, in only 25 synthetic steps, simplified and tunable analogs with bryostatin-like PKC modulatory activities.

Divergent synthesis of a thiolate-based α-hydroxytropolone library with a dynamic bioactivity profile.

Project description:Here we describe a rapid and divergent synthetic route toward structurally novel αHTs functionalized with either one or two thioether or sulfonyl appendages. Evaluation of this library against hepatitis B and herpes simplex virus, as well as the pathogenic fungus Cryptococcus neoformans, and a human hepatoblastoma (HepDES19) revealed complementary biological profiles and new lead compounds with sub-micromolar activity against each pathogen.

The Dual α-Amidation System in Scorpion Venom Glands.

Project description:Many peptides in scorpion venoms are amidated at their C-termini. This post-translational modification is paramount for the correct biological function of ion channel toxins and antimicrobial peptides, among others. The discovery of canonical amidation sequences in transcriptome-derived scorpion proproteins suggests that a conserved enzymatic α-amidation system must be responsible for this modification of scorpion peptides. A transcriptomic approach was employed to identify sequences putatively encoding enzymes of the α-amidation pathway. A dual enzymatic α-amidation system was found, consisting of the membrane-anchored, bifunctional, peptidylglycine α-amidating monooxygenase (PAM) and its paralogs, soluble monofunctional peptidylglycine α-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHMm) and peptidyl-α-hydroxyglycine α-amidating lyase (PALm). Independent genes encode these three enzymes. Amino acid residues responsible for ion coordination and enzymatic activity are conserved in these sequences, suggesting that the enzymes are functional. Potential endoproteolytic recognition sites for proprotein convertases in the PAM sequence indicate that PAM-derived soluble isoforms may also be expressed. Sequences potentially encoding proprotein convertases (PC1 and PC2), carboxypeptidase E (CPE), and other enzymes of the α-amidation pathway, were also found, confirming the presence of this pathway in scorpions.

CuH-Catalyzed Asymmetric Reductive Amidation of α,β-Unsaturated Carboxylic Acids.

Project description:The direct enantioselective copper hydride (CuH)-catalyzed synthesis of β-chiral amides from α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids and secondary amines under mild reaction conditions is reported. The method utilizes readily accessible carboxylic acids and tolerates a variety of functional groups in the β-position including several heteroarenes. A subsequent iridium-catalyzed reduction to γ-chiral amines can be performed in the same flask without purification of the intermediate amides.

The phosphoinositide signature guides the final step of plant cytokinesis.

Project description:Plant cytokinesis, which fundamentally differs from that in animals, requires the outward expansion of a plasma membrane precursor named the cell plate. How the transition from a cell plate to a plasma membrane occurs remains poorly understood. Here, we report that the acquisition of plasma membrane identity occurs through lateral patterning of the phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate PI(4,5)P2 at the newly formed cell plate membrane. There, the phosphoinositide phosphatase SAC9 emerges as a key regulator, colocalizing with and regulating the function of the microtubule-associated protein MAP65-3 at the cell plate leading zone. In sac9-3 mutant, the polar distribution of PI(4,5)P2 at the cell plate is altered, leading to ectopic recruitment of the cytokinesis apparatus and formation of an additional cell plate insertion site. We propose that at the cell plate, SAC9 drives the depletion of PI(4,5)P2, which acts as a polar cue to spatially separate cell plate expansion from the acquisition of plasma membrane identity during final step of cytokinesis.

Cobalt(III)-Catalyzed C-H Amidation of Dehydroalanine for the Site-Selective Structural Diversification of Thiostrepton.

Project description:Thiostrepton is a potent antibiotic against a broad range of Gram-positive bacteria, but its medical applications have been limited by its poor aqueous solubility. In this work, the first C(sp2 )-H amidation of dehydroalanine (Dha) residues was applied to the site selective modification of thiostrepton to prepare a variety of derivatives. Unlike all prior methods for the modification of thiostrepton, the alkene framework of the Dha residue is preserved and with complete selectivity for the Z-stereoisomer. Additionally, an aldehyde group was introduced by C-H amidation, enabling oxime ligation for the installation of an even greater range of functionality. The thiostrepton derivatives generally maintain antimicrobial activity, and importantly, eight of the derivatives displayed improved aqueous solubility (up to 28-fold), thereby addressing a key shortcoming of this antibiotic. The exceptional functional group compatibility and site selectivity of CoIII -catalyzed C(sp2 )-H Dha amidation suggests that this approach could be generalized to other natural products and biopolymers containing Dha residues.

Remote stereoselective deconjugation of α,β-unsaturated esters by simple amidation reactions.

Project description:The thermodynamically disfavored isomerization of α,β-unsaturated esters to deconjugated β,γ-unsaturated analogues occurs readily when coupled to an amidation. Within the framework of macrocyclic derivatives, it is shown that 15, 16, and 18 membered macrocycles react with tBuOK and anilines to generate, in one-pot, β,γ-unsaturated amides (yields up to 88%). Importantly, single (chiral) diastereomers are isolated (d.r. > 49 : 1, 1H NMR) irrespective of the size and nature of the rings, showing an effective transmission of remote stereochemistry during the isomerization process. CSP-chromatographic resolution and absolute configuration determination by VCD are achieved.

Sterically Demanding Oxidative Amidation of α-Substituted Malononitriles with Amines Using O2.

Project description:An efficient amidation method between readily available 1,1-dicyanoalkanes and either chiral or nonchiral amines was realized simply with molecular oxygen and a carbonate base. This oxidative protocol can be applied to both sterically and electronically challenging substrates in a highly chemoselective, practical, and rapid manner. The use of cyclopropyl and thioether substrates support the radical formation of α-peroxy malononitrile species, which can cyclize to dioxiranes that can monooxygenate malononitrile α-carbanions to afford activated acyl cyanides capable of reacting with amine nucleophiles.
