Synthetic Studies on Sialoglycoconjugates 50: Total Synthesis of Ganglioside GD2

Abstract

As more and more biological functions^1-10 of gangliosides are being revealed, their facile, stereocontrolled synthesis is strongly required. We have developed^11-l4 an α-stereoselective glycosylation of sialic acids, α-sialyl-(2→8)-sialic acid and α-sialyl-(2→8)-α-sialyl-(2→8)-sialic acid, by using their 2-thioglycosides as the glycosyl donor and suitably protected acceptors, and dimethyl(methy1thio)sulfonium triflate (DMTST) or N-iodosuccinimide (NIS)-trifluoromethanesufonic acid (or TMS triflate) as the glycosyl promoter in acetonitrile. In this way, we have synthesized a variety of gangliosides¹⁵ and their analogs.¹⁶ Previously,¹³ we synthesized Ganglioside GD3 containing α-sialyl-(2-8)-sialic acid residue in the molecule, in connection with a novel approach for systematic synthesis of polysialo-glycoconjugates. As a part of our continuing studies on the synthesis and elucidation of the functions of gangliosides, we describe here a facile, stereocontrolled, total synthesis of ganglioside GD2. Ganglioside GD2, which was first isolated from human brain by R. Kuhn et al.,¹⁷ is well known as a human melanoma associated antigen.¹⁸

Binding Modes of Small-Molecule Inhibitors to the EED Pocket of PRC2

Polycomb Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) plays a key role in silencing epigenetic gene through trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone 3 (H3K27). Dysregulations of PRC2 caused by overexpression and mutations of the core subunits of PRC2 have been implicated in many cancers. The core subunits EZH1/2 are histone-lysine N-methyltransferases that function as the enzymatic component of PRC2. While the core subunit EED is a scaffolding protein to support EZH1/2 and binds JARID2K116me3/H3K27me3 to enhance the enzymatic activity of PRC2 through allosteric activation. Recently, several small molecules that compete with JARI2K116me3 and H3K27me3 have been reported. These molecules selectively bind to the JARID2K116me3/H3K27me3-binding pocket of EED, thereby preventing the allosteric regulation of PRC2. These first-in-class PRC2 inhibitors show robust suppression in DLBCL cell lines, demonstrating anticancer drugs that target the EED subunit of PRC2 are viable. In this study, we used the recently developed MM/GBSA_IE and the alanine scanning method to analyze the hot spots in EED/inhibitor interactions. The analysis of these hot and warm spots helps us to understand the fundamental differences between inhibitors. Our results give a quantitative explanation on why the binding affinities of EED/A-395 interactions are stronger than that of EED/EED226 while their binding modes are similar and provide valuable insights for rational design of novel EED inhibitors.

Accessibility and Solid State NMR Studies on Sol‐Gel Processed Diphosphine Ligands

Novel xerogels X1 a–d were obtained by sol‐gel processing of the monomeric T‐functionalized diphosphine ligand (MeO)₃Si(CH₂)₆CH[CH₂PPh₂]₂ [1(T⁰)] with various amounts of the co‐condensing agents MeSi(OMe)₂(CH₂)₆(OMe)₂SiMe (D⁰–C₆–D⁰) and MeSi(OMe)₂(CH₂)₃(C₆H₄)(CH₂)₃(OMe)₂SiMe [Ph(1,4‐C₃D⁰)₂] . ²⁹Si CP/MAS NMR spectroscopic investigations were applied to probe the matrices and their degree of condensation. The integrity of the hydrocarbon backbone and diphosphine moiety was examined by means of solid state NMR spectroscopy (¹³C, ³¹P). To study the dynamics of the matrices and the phosphorus centers detailed measurements of relaxation time (T_1ρH) and cross polarization constants (T_SiH, T_PH) were carried out. The accessibility of the polysiloxane‐supported diphosphines was scrutinized by some typical phosphine reactions. It was found that reagents such as H₂O₂, MeI as well as bulky molecules like (NBD)Mo(CO)₄ or (COD)PdCl₂ are able to reach all phosphorus centers independent on the kind of the backbone of the matrix. SEM micrographs show the morphology of the hybrid materials and energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX) suggest that the distribution of the elements agree with the applied composition.

NMR and Luminescence Binding Studies of Ytterbium,Thulium, and Europium Macrocyclic Complexes with Phosphorus(V) Oxy Anions

The binding of a series of phosphate anions to coordinatively unsaturated macrocyclic complexes of Yb, Tm, and Eu was studied by ¹H‐NMR, emission and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) spectroscopy. Each ternary adduct was distinguished by its spectral profile. With O‐phosphorylated amino acids and peptides, chemoselective ligation of the phosphate moiety was favored by Eu over chelation involving the terminal amino group, which was competitive for Tm and Yb. A preference for binding O‐phosphono‐L ‐tyrosine sites was found with various Eu complexes, and was signalled by ratiometric changes in metal‐based emission and CPL spectra.     

Dimensional Matching versus Induced-Fit Distortions: Binding Affinities of Planar and Curved Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons with a Tetragold Metallorectangle

A tetragold(I) rectangle-like metallocage containing two pyrene-bis-imidazolylidene ligands and two carbazolyl-bis-alkynyl linkers is used for the encapsulation of a series of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), including corannulene. The binding affinities obtained for the encapsulation of the planar PAHs guests in CD₂Cl₂ are found to exponentially increase with the number of π-electrons of the guest (1.3 > logK >6.6). For the bowl-shaped molecule of corannulene, the association constant is much lower than the expected one according to its number of electrons. The molecular structure of the host–guest complex formed with corannulene shows that the molecule of the guest is compressed, while the host is expanded, thus showing an interesting case of artificial mutual induced-fit arrangement.

Synthesis,Spectroscopic Studies,and Biological Activity of Organosilicon(iv) Complexes of Ligands Derived from 2-Aminobenzothiazole Derivatives and 2-Hydroxy-3-Methoxy Benzaldehyde

Abstract

The Schiff bases derived from the condensation of 2-aminobenzothiazole derivatives and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde and their silicon(IV) complexes with the general formula R₂Si(L)Cl (R = Et, Bu, Ph, L = 2-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxy) benzylideneaminobenzo-thiazole) have been synthesized. These complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, and spectroscopic studies including IR and NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ²⁹Si) spectroscopy. The analytical data suggest trigonal bipyramidal geometry around the silicon atom in the resulting complexes. The ligands and their organosilicon complexes have also been evaluated for in vitro antimicrobial activity against bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and Escherichia coli) and fungi (Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans). The complexes were found to be more potent as compared to the ligands.
