Late-stage peptide C-H alkylation for bioorthogonal C-H activation featuring solid phase peptide synthesis.

ABSTRACT: Methods for the late-stage diversification of structurally complex peptides hold enormous potential for advances in drug discovery, agrochemistry and pharmaceutical industries. While C-H arylations emerged for peptide modifications, they are largely limited to highly reactive, expensive and/or toxic reagents, such as silver(I) salts, in superstoichiometric quantities. In sharp contrast, we herein establish the ruthenium(II)-catalyzed C-H alkylation on structurally complex peptides. The additive-free ruthenium(II)carboxylate C-H activation manifold is characterized by ample substrate scope, racemization-free conditions and the chemo-selective tolerance of otherwise reactive functional groups, such as electrophilic ketone, bromo, ester, amide and nitro substituents. Mechanistic studies by experiment and computation feature an acid-enabled C-H ruthenation, along with a notable protodemetalation step. The transformative peptide C-H activation regime sets the stage for peptide ligation in solution and proves viable in a bioorthogonal fashion for C-H alkylations on user-friendly supports by means of solid phase peptide syntheses.

An Alkyne-functionalized Arginine for Solid-Phase Synthesis Enabling "Bioorthogonal" Peptide Conjugation.

Project description:Lately, amino-functionalized N ω-carbamoylated arginines were introduced as arginine surrogates enabling peptide labeling. However, this approach is hardly compatible with peptides also containing lysine or cysteine. Here, we present the synthesis of an alkyne-functionalized, N ω-carbamoylated arginine building block (7), which is compatible with Fmoc-strategy solid-phase peptide synthesis. The alkynylated arginine was incorporated into three biologically active linear hexapeptides and into a cyclic pentapeptide. Peptide conjugation to an azido-functionalized fluorescent dye via "click" chemistry was successfully demonstrated. In the case of a peptide also containing lysine besides the alkyne-functionalized arginine, this was feasible in a "bioorthogonal" manner.

Solid-phase peptide synthesis and solid-phase fragment coupling mediated by isonitriles.

Project description:The synthesis of polypeptides on solid phase via mediation by isonitriles is described. The acyl donor is a thioacid, which presumably reacts with the isonitrile to generate a thio-formimidate carboxylate mixed anhydride intermediate. Applications of this chemistry to reiterative solid-phase peptide synthesis as well as solid-phase fragment coupling are described.

Recyclable hypervalent-iodine-mediated solid-phase peptide synthesis and cyclic peptide synthesis.

Project description:The system of the hypervalent iodine(III) reagent FPID and (4-MeOC6H4)3P was successfully applied to solid-phase peptide synthesis and cyclic peptide synthesis. Four peptides with biological activities were synthesized through SPPS and the bioactive cyclic heptapeptide pseudostellarin D was obtained via solution-phase peptide synthesis. It is worth noting that FPID can be readily regenerated after the peptide coupling reaction.

Total wash elimination for solid phase peptide synthesis.

Project description:We present a process for solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) that completely eliminates all solvent intensive washing steps during each amino acid addition cycle. A key breakthrough is the removal of a volatile Fmoc deprotection base through bulk evaporation at elevated temperature while preventing condensation on the vessel surfaces with a directed headspace gas flushing. This process was demonstrated at both research and production scales without any impact on product quality and when applied to a variety of challenging sequences (up to 89 amino acids in length). The overall result is an extremely fast, high purity, scalable process with a massive waste reduction (up to 95%) while only requiring 10-15% of the standard amount of base used. This transformation of SPPS represents a step-change in peptide manufacturing process efficiency, and should encourage expanded access to peptide-based therapeutics.

Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis on Chitosan Thin Films.

Project description:Stable chitosan thin films can be promising substrates for creating nanometric peptide-bound polyglucosamine layers. Those are of scientific interest since they can have certain structural similarities to bacterial peptidoglycans. Such films were deposited by spin coating from chitosan solutions and modified by acetylation and N-protected amino acids. The masses of deposited materials and their stability in aqueous solutions at different pH values and water interaction were determined with a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D). The evolution of the surface composition was followed by X-ray photoelectron (XPS) and attenuated total reflectance infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy. Morphological changes were measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM), while the surface wettability was monitored by by static water contact angle measurements. The combination of the characterization techniques enabled an insight into the surface chemistry for each treatment step and confirmed the acetylation and coupling of N-protected glycine peptides. The developed procedures are seen as first steps toward preparing thin layers of acetylated chitin, potentially imitating the nanometric peptide substituted glycan layers found in bacterial cell walls.

Synthesis of (-)-Picrotoxinin by Late-Stage Strong Bond Activation.

Project description:We report a concise, stereocontrolled synthesis of the neurotoxic sesquiterpenoid (-)-picrotoxinin (1, PXN). The brevity of the route is due to regio- and stereoselective formation of the [4.3.0] bicyclic core by incorporation of a symmetrizing geminal dimethyl group at C5. Dimethylation then enables selective C-O bond formation in multiple intermediates. A series of strong bond (C-C and C-H) cleavages convert the C5 gem-dimethyl group to the C15 lactone of PXN.

Silanol: a bifunctional group for peptide synthesis and late-stage functionalization.

Project description:Chemical modification of a specific amino acid residue on peptides represents an efficient strategy to improve their pharmacokinetics and facilitates the potential to achieve post-synthetic diversification of peptides. Herein, we reported the first Pd-catalyzed late-stage ortho-olefination of Tyr residues on peptides with high chemo- and site-selectivity, by employing the easily attached and removable silanol as a bifunctional protecting group and directing group. Up to hexapeptides with variation on amino acid sequences or locations of the Tyr residue and different olefins were compatible with this protocol, which enriched the chemical toolbox for late-stage modification via C(sp2)-H functionalization. Furthermore, the orthogonal protection strategies of Tyr were also developed and could be applied to SPPS.

A Photolabile Carboxyl Protecting Group for Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis.

Project description:A new kind of photolabile protecting group (PLPG) for carboxyl moieties was designed and synthesized as the linker between resin and peptide. This group can be used for the protection of amino acid carboxyl groups. The peptide was synthesized on Nph (2-hydroxy-3-(2-nitrophenyl)-heptanoic acid)-derivatized resins and could be cleaved under UV exposure, thus avoiding the necessity for harsh acid-mediated resin cleavage. The PLPG has been successfully used for solid-phase synthesis of peptides.

Total synthesis of biseokeaniamides A-C and late-stage electrochemically-enabled peptide analogue synthesis.

Project description:The first total synthesis of cytotoxic cyanobacterial peptide natural products biseokeaniamides A-C is reported employing a robust solid-phase approach to peptide backbone construction followed by coupling of a key thiazole building block. To rapidly access natural product analogues, we have optimized an operationally simple electrochemical oxidative decarboxylation-nucleophilic addition pathway which exploits the reactivity of native C-terminal peptide carboxylates and abrogates the need for building block syntheses. Electrochemically-generated N,O-acetal intermediates are engaged with electron-rich aromatics and organometallic reagents to forge modified amino acids and peptides. The value of this late-stage modification method is highlighted by the expedient and divergent production of bioactive peptide analogues, including compounds which exhibit enhanced cytotoxicity relative to the biseokeaniamide natural products.
