Facile Synthesis of Saikosaponins.

ABSTRACT: Saikosaponin A (SSa) and D (SSd) are typical oleanane-type saponins featuring a unique 13,28-epoxy-ether moiety at D ring of the aglycones, which exhibit a wide range of biological and pharmacological activities. Herein, we report the first synthesis of saikosaponin A/D (1-2) and their natural congeners, including prosaikosaponin F (3), G (4), saikosaponin Y (5), prosaikogenin (6), and clinoposaponin I (7). The present synthesis features ready preparation of the aglycones of high oxidation state from oleanolic acid, regioselective glycosylation to construct the β-(1→3)-linked disaccharide fragment, and efficient gold(I)-catalyzed glycosylation to install the glycans on to the aglycones.

Facile synthesis of (+/-)-paeonilide.

Project description:(+/-)-Paeonilide, a novel monoterpenoid metabolite from the roots of Paeonia delavayi showing anti-platelet activating factor activity, is convergently synthesized in five steps with 59% overall yield. The application of benzoyl peroxide-promoted radical addition of unsaturated ester to aldehyde and subsequent topologically favored cyclization greatly simplified the synthesis.

Facile Enzymatic Synthesis of Ketoses.

Project description:Studies of rare ketoses have been hampered by a lack of efficient preparation methods. A convenient, efficient, and cost-effective platform for the facile synthesis of ketoses is described. This method enables the preparation of difficult-to-access ketopentoses and ketohexoses from common and inexpensive starting materials with high yield and purity and without the need for a tedious isomer separation step.

Facile synthesis of polycyclic metallaarynes.

Project description:Metalla-analogs of polycyclic arynes represent an interesting class of metallaaromatics with a formal M[triple bond, length as m-dash]C bond within the ring. The first examples of a bicyclic ?-metallaaryne and tricyclic metallaarynes, including a metallaanthracyne and a metallaphenanthryne, were obtained in good yields by reactions of OsCl2(PPh3)3 with alkyne-functionalized phosphorus ylides.

Facile Synthesis of FAPbI3 Nanorods.

Project description:Metal halide perovskites are promising materials for a range of applications. The synthesis of light-emitting perovskite nanorods has become popular recently. Thus far, the facile synthesis of perovskite nanorods remains elusive. In this work, we have developed a facile synthesis to fabricate FAPbI3 nanorods for the first time, demonstrating a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 35-42%. The fabrication of the nanorods has been made possible by carefully tuning the concentration of formamidine-oleate as well as the amount of oleic acid with pre-dissolved PbI2 in toluene with oleic acid/oleylamine.

Facile diamond synthesis from lower diamondoids.

Project description:Carbon-based nanomaterials have exceptional properties that make them attractive for a variety of technological applications. Here, we report on the use of diamondoids (diamond-like, saturated hydrocarbons) as promising precursors for laser-induced high-pressure, high-temperature diamond synthesis. The lowest pressure and temperature (P-T) conditions that yielded diamond were 12 GPa (at ~2000 K) and 900 K (at ~20 GPa), respectively. This represents a substantially reduced transformation barrier compared with diamond synthesis from conventional (hydro)carbon allotropes, owing to the similarities in the structure and full sp3 hybridization of diamondoids and bulk diamond. At 20 GPa, diamondoid-to-diamond conversion occurs rapidly within <19 μs. Molecular dynamics simulations indicate that once dehydrogenated, the remaining diamondoid carbon cages reconstruct themselves into diamond-like structures at high P-T. This study is the first successful mapping of the P-T conditions and onset timing of the diamondoid-to-diamond conversion and elucidates the physical and chemical factors that facilitate diamond synthesis.

Facile synthesis of highly functionalized ethyltrifluoroborates.

Project description:Organotrifluoroborates are generating increased interest because of their ease of preparation and purification and indefinite shelf life. Herein we report the preparation of organotrifluoroborates bearing functional groups that can be manipulated at different stages of the synthetic route, exploiting the inertness of their carbon-boron bonds. The alkylation of 2,2-dicyanoethyltrifluoroborate with a variety of electrophiles and of (EWG)2CH2 with potassium iodomethyltrifluoroborate resulted in di- and trisubstituted ethyltrifluoroborates in good to excellent yields.

Facile synthesis of photoactivatable adenosine analogs.

Project description:Adenosine and its derivatives are important building blocks of the biological system. They serve as the universal energy currency, amplify intracellular signals for various signal transduction pathways, and can also be used as the co-substrates for enzymatic transformations. The synthesis and regulation of adenosine and its analogs rely on the adenosine binding proteins (ABPs). Dysregulated ABP activity contributes to numerous diseases such as cancer, metabolic disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases. Presently, there is intense interest in targeting ABPs for therapeutic purposes. A large fraction of the human ABP family remains poorly characterized. The need for innovative chemical probes to investigate ABP function in the native biological matrix is apparent. In this study, an adenosine analog, probe 1, with a photoaffinity group and biotin tag was synthesized using concise synthetic strategies. This probe was able to label and capture individual recombinant ABPs with good target selectivity. Probe 1 was also evaluated for its ability to label spiked ABP in complex cell lysates. This chemical probe, together with the labeling and enrichment assay, is of great value to interrogate the biological functions of ABPs and to elucidate their diversity under different physiological conditions.

Facile chemoenzymatic synthesis of biotinylated heparosan hexasaccharide.

Project description:A biotinylated heparosan hexasaccharide was synthesized using a one-pot multi-enzyme strategy, in situ activation and transfer of N-trifluoroacetylglucosamine (GlcNTFA) to a heparin backbone significantly improved the synthetic efficiency. The biotinylated hexasaccharide could serve as a flexible core to diversify its conversion into heparan sulfate isoforms with potential biological applications and therapeutics.

Facile Synthesis of Monofunctional Pentamethine Carbocyanine Fluorophores.

Project description:A high yield route to symmetric, conjugatable pentamethine carbocyanine dyes with far-red/near infrared (NIR) emission between 650 and 700 nm is reported. The dyes are prepared via condensation of indolium or benz[e]indolium inner salts with an alkyl carboxylic acid derivatized malonaldehyde dianil or alternatively in a one-pot reaction without isolation of the malonaldehyde intermediate. The fluorophores are water-soluble, have bright fluorescence emission, are easily prepared in good yield, and are promising candidates for use in a variety of biochemical and in vivo imaging applications.
