Synthesis of marine guanidine alkaloids and their application as chemical/biological tools

Ptilomycalin A and crambescidins, novel marine guanidine alkaloids, have a unique pentacyclic guanidine structure, and exhibit a considerable array of biological activities. The first method developed for the synthesis of the pentacyclic guanidine core structure involved successive 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions and resulted in the first total synthesis of crambescidin 359. The synthesis of other pentacyclic guanidine derivatives has been based on this methodology and applied as tools for studying biological activities, and as chemical reaction catalysts.

The total synthesis of stevastelin B3, stevastelin C3 and 5-deoxy derivative of stevastelin C3, novel 13-membered cyclic depsipeptides, is described.

The correct structure of stevastelin C3 was established by the total synthesis to be 5-deoxy derivative of the proposed structure.     

Study of the structure of chelate fibrous ionites by IR spectroscopy

Structure of fibrous chelate ion exchangers FIBAN X-1 and FIBAN X-2 prepared by a two-step synthesis was studied by IR Fourier spectroscopy. The first step of the ion exchanger preparation consists in the production of an aminated fiber (AF). The process can be carried out in different phases: either vapor, or aqueous. It is found that conditions of the synthesis of AF affect differently the ion exchanger structure. For the ion exchanger FIBAN X-1 it does not a matter in which phase is AF synthesized, and the FIBAN X-1 sorbent has amidoamine structure. The structure of chelate ion exchanger FIBAN X-2 depends on the conditions of the synthesis of AF. When the process is carried out in aqueous medium the FIBAN X-2 has amidoamine structure, while amination in the vapor phase leads to formation of the FIBAN X-2 ion exchanger mainly containing in its structure imidazoline rings.

Total synthesis and structural confirmation of chlorodysinosin A

The first enantiocontrolled total synthesis of the marine sponge metabolite chlorodysinosin A is described. The structure and absolute configuration are identical to those of dysinosin A except for the presence of a novel 2S,3R-3-chloroleucine residue in the former. A concise stereocontrolled synthesis of the new chlorine-containing amino acid fragment was developed. An X-ray cocrystal structure of synthetic chlorodysinosin A with the enzyme thrombin confirms the structure and configuration assignment achieved through total synthesis. Within the aeruginosin family of natural products, chlorodysinosin A is the most potent inhibitor of the serine proteases thrombin, factor VIIa, and factor Xa, which are critical enzymes in the process leading to platelet aggregation and fibrin mesh formation in humans.

Inositolphosphoglycan Mediators: An Effective Synthesis of the Conserved Linear GPI Anchor Structure*

An effective new preparative synthesis of the conserved linear pseudopentasaccharide structure of the GPI anchors and of the full GPI structure has been carried out that has permitted obtaining both molecules in sufficient quantities as to perform further structural and biologic studies. The synthesis involves a 3+2 block synthesis strategy in which a conveniently protected Man α(1→4) GlcN₃ α(1→6) myo‐Ins building block, previously used in the synthesis of inositolphosphoglycan (IPG) mediators, is glycosylated with a protected Man α(1→2) Man trichloroacetimidate.

ZSM‐5 Zeolite Nanosheets with Improved Catalytic Activity Synthesized Using a New Class of Structure‐Directing Agents

A new series of multiquaternary ammonium structure‐directing agents, based on 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, was prepared. ZSM‐5 zeolites with nanosheet morphology (10 nm crystal thickness) were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions using multiquaternary ammonium surfactants as the zeolite structure‐generating agents. Both wide‐angle and small‐angle diffraction patterns were obtained using only a suitable structure‐directing agent under a specific zeolite synthesis composition. A mechanism of zeolite formation is proposed based on the results obtained from various physicochemical characterizations. ZSM‐5 materials were investigated in catalytic reactions requiring medium to strong acidity, which are important for the synthesis of a wide range of industrially important fine and specialty chemicals. The catalytic activity of ZSM‐5 materials was compared with that of the conventional ZSM‐5 and amorphous mesoporous aluminosilicate Al‐MCM‐41. The synthesis strategy of the present investigation using the new series of structure‐directing agents could be extended for the synthesis of other related zeolites or other porous materials in the future. Zeolite with a structural feature as small as the size of a unit cell (5–10 nm) with hierarchically ordered porous structure would be very promising for catalysis.

Study of structure properties of organized silica sorbents synthesized on polymeric templates

Mesoporous silica materials were synthesized by applying Pluronic type polymers as pore creating agents. The composition of a reacting mixture and the process conditions were changed in a synthesis procedure. These changes differentiated the characteristics of porous structure of obtained sorbents. The parameters characterizing the pore structure were estimated and the changes of pore arrangement of obtained materials being a result of different synthesis conditions were investigated. The small-angle XRD results indicate that F cubic structure was formed what confirms the cage-like ordering of the synthesized silicas.

Directed Metalation?Cross‐Coupling Strategies. Total Syntheses of the Alleged and the Revised Phenanthrene Natural Product Gymnopusin

The total synthesis of gymnopusin ( 2 ) is described. The originally assigned structure for gymnopusin 1a was found to be incorrect by total synthesis using the Directed ortho‐Metalation (DoM)? Cross‐Coupling? Directed remote Metalation (DreM) sequence, a demonstrable key strategy for the regioselective construction of the 9‐phenanthrol core. The revised structure of gymnopusin ( 2 ) was confirmed by synthesis by adopting the same strategy but involving a key remote anionic Fries‐rearrangement step. Both routes highlight methodologies and concepts which may be of value in the regiocontrolled synthesis of phenanthrenoids specifically and in complex polycyclic aromatics in general.
