Resolution of Racemic Mixtures by Phase Transition of PEGylated Resolving Agents.

ABSTRACT: A novel, efficient, and simple method for the resolution of racemic mixtures is presented in which PEGylated resolving agents are subjected to diastereomeric complex formation in alcohols. The resulting complexes then undergo temperature-assisted phase transition, affording a precipitate that is enriched in one enantiomer and separable by filtration. In an aqueous solution, phase transition can be caused by the methods used in the precipitation of poly(ethylene glycol) (e.g., addition of ammonium sulfate). A number of racemic amines have been successfully resolved using this method. The first cycle of resolution affords the amines with an optical purity of 72-85% from their corresponding racemic mixture in good yields (78-90%). An additional cycle improved the optical purity to 87-95%. The PEGylated resolving agents can be recovered and reutilized without the loss of resolution efficiency.

Kinetic Resolution of Racemic Mixtures via Enantioselective Photocatalysis.

Project description:Despite the increasing demand for enantiopure drugs in the pharmaceutical industry, currently available chiral separation technologies are still lagging behind, whether due to throughput or to operability considerations. This paper presents a new kinetic resolution method, based on the specific adsorption of a target enantiomer onto a molecularly imprinted surface of a photocatalyst and its subsequent degradation through a photocatalytic mechanism. The current model system is composed of an active TiO2 layer, on which the target enantiomer is adsorbed. A photocatalytic suppression layer of Al2O3 is then grown around the adsorbed target molecules by atomic layer deposition. Following the removal of the templating molecules, molecularly imprinted cavities that correspond to the adsorbed species are formed. The stereospecific nature of these pores encourages enantioselective degradation of the undesired species through its enhanced adsorption on the photocatalyst surface, while dampening nonselective photocatalytic activity around the imprinted sites. The method, demonstrated with the dipeptide leucylglycine as a model system, revealed a selectivity factor of up to 7 and an enrichment of a single enantiomer to 85% from an initially racemic mixture. The wide range of parameters that can be optimized (photocatalyst, concentration of imprinted sites, type of passivating layer, etc.) points to the great potential of this method for obtaining enantiomerically pure compounds, beginning from racemic mixtures.

Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of trans-?-Aryl-?-hydroxy-?-lactones and Enzymatic Kinetic Resolution of Their Racemic Mixtures.

Project description:Two novel and convenient routes to obtain enantiomerically enriched trans-?-aryl-?-hydroxy-?-lactones 5a-d with potential antifeedant and anticancer activity were developed. In the first method starting from corresponding enantiomers of ?,?-unsaturated esters 4a-d derived from enzymatically resolved allyl alcohols 1a-d, both enantiomers of hydroxylactones 5a-d were synthesized with high enantiomeric excesses (73%-97%). Configurations of the stereogenic centers of the synthesized compounds were assigned based on the mechanism of acidic lactonization of esters 4a-d in the presence of m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA). An alternative method for the production of optically active trans-?-aryl-?-hydroxy-?-lactones 5a-d was lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of their racemic mixtures by transesterification with vinyl propionate as the acyl donor. The most efficient enzyme in the screening procedure was lipase B from Candida antarctica. Its application on a preparative scale after 6 h afforded unreacted (+)-(4S,5R,6S)-hydroxylactones 5a-d and (+)-(4R,5S,6R)-propionates 6a-d, most of them with high enantiomeric excesses (92%-98%). Resolution of lactone 5d with bulky 1,3-benzodioxol ring provided products with significantly lower optical purity (ee = 89% and 84% for hydroxylactone 5d and propionate 6d, respectively). The elaborated methods give access to both enantiomers of trans-?-aryl-?-hydroxy-?-lactones 5a-d with the defined absolute configurations of stereogenic centers, which is crucial requirement for the investigations of relationship: spatial structure-biological activity.

Resolving length-scale-dependent transient disorder through an ultrafast phase transition.

Project description:Material functionality can be strongly determined by structure extending only over nanoscale distances. The pair distribution function presents an opportunity for structural studies beyond idealized crystal models and to investigate structure over varying length scales. Applying this method with ultrafast time resolution has the potential to similarly disrupt the study of structural dynamics and phase transitions. Here we demonstrate such a measurement of CuIr2S4 optically pumped from its low-temperature Ir-dimerized phase. Dimers are optically suppressed without spatial correlation, generating a structure whose level of disorder strongly depends on the length scale. The redevelopment of structural ordering over tens of picoseconds is directly tracked over both space and time as a transient state is approached. This measurement demonstrates the crucial role of local structure and disorder in non-equilibrium processes as well as the feasibility of accessing this information with state-of-the-art XFEL facilities.

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 π-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.

Hysteresis and the Cholesterol Dependent Phase Transition in Binary Lipid Mixtures with the Martini Model.

Project description:Extensive Martini simulation data, totaling 5 ms, is presented for binary mixtures of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and cholesterol. Using simulation initiated from both gel (so) and liquid-disordered (Ld) phases, significant and strongly cholesterol-dependent hysteresis in the enthalpy as a function of temperature is observed for cholesterol mole fractions from 0 to 20 mol %. Although the precise phase transition temperature cannot be determined due to the hysteresis, the data are consistent with a first order gel to fluid transition, which increases in temperature with cholesterol. At 30 mol % cholesterol, no hysteresis is observed, and there is no evidence for a continuous transition, in either structural parameters like the area per lipid or in the heat capacity as a function of temperature. The results are consistent with a single uniform phase above a critical cholesterol composition between 20 and 30 mol % in Martini, while highlighting the importance and difficulty of obtaining the equilibrium averages to locate phase boundaries precisely in computational models of lipid bilayers.

Crude phosphorylation mixtures containing racemic lipid amphiphiles self-assemble to give stable primitive compartments.

Project description:It is an open question how the chemical structure of prebiotic vesicle-forming amphiphiles complexified to produce robust primitive compartments that could safely host foreign molecules. Previous work suggests that comparingly labile vesicles composed of plausibly prebiotic fatty acids were eventually chemically transformed with glycerol and a suitable phosphate source into phospholipids that would form robust vesicles. Here we show that phosphatidic acid (PA) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) lipids can be obtained from racemic dioleoyl glycerol under plausibly prebiotic phosphorylation conditions. Upon in situ hydration of the crude phosphorylation mixtures only those that contained rac-DOPA (not rac-DOPE) generated stable giant vesicles that were capable of encapsulating water-soluble probes, as evidenced by confocal microscopy and flow cytometry. Chemical reaction side-products (identified by IR and MS and quantified by 1H NMR) acted as co-surfactants and facilitated vesicle formation. To mimic the compositional variation of such primitive lipid mixtures, self-assembly of a combinatorial set of the above amphiphiles was tested, revealing that too high dioleoyl glycerol contents inhibited vesicle formation. We conclude that a decisive driving force for the gradual transition from unstable fatty acid vesicles to robust diacylglyceryl phosphate vesicles was to avoid the accumulation of unphosphorylated diacylglycerols in primitive vesicle membranes.

Resolving Dirac electrons with broadband high-resolution NMR.

Project description:Detecting the metallic Dirac electronic states on the surface of Topological Insulators (TIs) is critical for the study of important surface quantum properties (SQPs), such as Majorana zero modes, where simultaneous probing of the bulk and edge electron states is required. However, there is a particular shortage of experimental methods, showing at atomic resolution how Dirac electrons extend and interact with the bulk interior of nanoscaled TI systems. Herein, by applying advanced broadband solid-state 125Te nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods on Bi2Te3 nanoplatelets, we succeeded in uncovering the hitherto invisible NMR signals with magnetic shielding that is influenced by the Dirac electrons, and we subsequently showed how the Dirac electrons spread inside the nanoplatelets. In this way, the spin and orbital magnetic susceptibilities induced by the bulk and edge electron states were simultaneously measured at atomic scale resolution, providing a pertinent experimental approach in the study of SQPs.

The resolution code of acute inflammation: Novel pro-resolving lipid mediators in resolution.

Project description:Studies into the mechanisms in resolution of self-limited inflammation and acute reperfusion injury have uncovered a new genus of pro-resolving lipid mediators coined specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPM) including lipoxins, resolvins, protectins and maresins that are each temporally produced by resolving-exudates with distinct actions for return to homeostasis. SPM evoke potent anti-inflammatory and novel pro-resolving mechanisms as well as enhance microbial clearance. While born in inflammation-resolution, SPM are conserved structures with functions discovered in microbial defense, pain, organ protection and tissue regeneration, wound healing, cancer, reproduction, and neurobiology-cognition. This review covers these SPM mechanisms and other new omega-3 PUFA pathways that open their path for functions in resolution physiology.

Resolution Agonist 15-epi-Lipoxin A<sub>4</sub> Programs Early Activation of Resolving Phase in Post-Myocardial Infarction Healing.

Project description:Following myocardial infarction (MI), overactive inflammation remodels the left ventricle (LV) leading to heart failure coinciding with reduced levels of 15-epi-Lipoxin A4 (15-epi LXA4). However, the role of 15-epi LXA4 in post-MI acute inflammatory response and resolving phase is unclear. We hypothesize that liposomal fusion of 15-epi-LXA4 (Lipo-15-epi-LXA4) or free 15-epi-LXA4 will expedite the resolving phase in post-MI inflammation. 8 to 12-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were subjected to permanent coronary artery ligation. Lipo-15-epi-LXA4 or 15-epi-LXA4 (1 µg/kg/day) was injected 3 hours post-MI for (d)1 or continued daily till d5. 15-epi-LXA4 activated formyl peptide receptor (FPR2) and GPR120 on alternative macrophages but inhibited GPR40 on classical macrophages in-vitro. The 15-epi-LXA4 injected mice displayed reduced LV and lung mass to body weight ratios and improved ejection fraction at d5 post-MI. In the acute phase of inflammation-(d1), 15-epi-LXA4 primes neutrophil infiltration with a robust increase of Ccl2 and FPR2 expression. During the resolving phase-(d5), 15-epi-LXA4 initiated rapid neutrophils clearance with persistent activation of FPR2 in LV. Compared to MI-control, 15-epi-LXA4 injected mice showed reduced renal inflammation along with decreased levels of ngal and plasma creatinine. In summary, 15-epi-LXA4 initiates the resolving phase early to discontinue inflammation post-MI, thereby reducing LV dysfunction.
