Stereochemistry and mechanism of a microbial phenylalanine aminomutase

The stereochemistry of a phenylalanine aminomutase (PAM) on the andrimid biosynthetic pathway in Pantoea agglomerans (Pa) is reported. PaPAM is a member of the 4-methylidene-1H-imidazol-5(4H)-one (MIO)-dependent family of catalysts and isomerizes (2S)-α-phenylalanine to (3S)-β-phenylalanine, which is the enantiomer of the product made by the mechanistically similar aminomutase TcPAM from Taxus plants. The NH(2) and pro-(3S) hydrogen groups at C(α) and C(β), respectively, of the substrate are removed and interchanged completely intramolecularly with inversion of configuration at the migration centers to form β-phenylalanine. This is a contrast to the retention of configuration mechanism followed by TcPAM.     

Stereochemistry of hydroboration of 3(or 5)-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridines

Hydroboration of N-substituted 5 - methyl - 4 - phenyl - 1,2,5,6 - tetrahydropyridines gave, as a sole product, the 5-methyl-4-phenyl-3-piperidinols, while the 3 - methyl - 4 - phenyl - 1,2,5,6 - tetrahydropyridines gave the 3-methyl-4-phenyl-3-piperidinols together with the 4-boryl-3-methyl-4-phenylpiperidine amine boranes. Structural and configurational assignments were made through the analysis of spectral data (IR, ¹H NMR and MS).     

Organic Stereochemistry. Part 3

This review continues a general presentation of the principles of stereochemistry with special reference to medicinal compounds. Here, we discuss further stereogenic elements other than the stereogenic centers presented in Part 2. These are the axis of chirality, the plane of chirality, helicity, and (E,Z)‐diastereoisomerism (stereoisomerism about double bonds). Some of these elements of stereoisomerism are not always well understood, and they raise specific convention issues. Isomerization reactions will also be discussed. As far as possible, the examples we present have biochemical and mainly medicinal relevance; a systematic overview concerning biosystems will be presented in Parts 5–8.     

Light-induced dehydrogenation of 5-acetyl-2-methoxydihydropyrimidines

Tautomeric mixtures of 4-aryl substituted 5-acetyl-2-methoxydihydropyrimidines undergo oxidation by exposing to the UV-light under formation of sole pyrimidines. The nature of the 4-substitution and solvent, and the ratio of tautomeric mixtures affect the rate of reaction. A proposed electron transfer-induced photo-dehydrogenation supports the obtained results in this study.

Organic Stereochemistry. Part 5

This review continues a general presentation of the principles of stereochemistry with special reference to the medicinal sciences. Here, we discuss and illustrate molecular and clinical phenomena of stereoselectivity in pharmacological effects, namely activity differences between stereoisomers, principally enantiomers. The review begins with didactic models of chiral recognition, with a main focus on the early model of Easson and Stedman. There follows a Molecular Modeling (MM) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) depiction of the differential interaction of the enantiomers of hyoscyamine with cholinergic muscarinic receptors. The next section is devoted to various rationalizations in stereoselective pharmacological activity, e.g., the influence of optical purity on enantioselectivity, Pfeiffer's rule, and eudismic analysis. The review ends with selected examples taken from various fields of preclinical and clinical pharmacology, of differences between stereoisomers in terms of drug absorption, distribution, and excretion. The influence of conformational factor in molecular pharmacology will be discussed in Part 6, while stereoselective aspects of xenobiotic metabolism will be reviewed in Parts 7 and 8.     

Isolation of flavonoids from Populus nigra as delta 4-3-ketosteroid (5 alpha) reductase inhibitors

Inhibitors of delta 4-3-ketosteroid (5 alpha) reductase, which had been prepared from rat prostate and converted testosterone to 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone and 4-androstene-3,17-dione, were isolated from 50% ethanol extract of Populus nigra. They were identified as pinobanksin (I, 3,5,7-trihydroxyflavanone), 3,7-dimethylquercetin (II, 3',4',5-trihydroxy-3,7-dimethoxyflavone) and pinocembrin (III, 5,7-dihydroxyflavanone). Compound III showed the most potent inhibitory activity among them.     

Stereochemistry of Delta4 dehydrogenation catalyzed by an ivy (Hedera helix) Delta9 desaturase homolog

The stereochemistry of palmitoyl-ACP Delta(4) desaturase-mediated dehydrogenation has been examined by tracking the fate of deuterium atoms located on stereospecifically monodeuterated substrates-(4S)- and (4R)-[4-(2)H(1)]-palmitoyl-ACP and (5S)- and (5R)-[5-(2)H(1)]-palmitoyl-ACP. It was found that the introduction of the (Z)-double bond between C-4 and C-5 of a palmitoyl substrate occurs with pro-R enantioselectivity-a result which matches that obtained for a closely related homolog-castor stearoyl-ACP Delta(9) desaturase. These data show that despite the difference in regioselectivity between the two enzymes, the stereochemistry of hydrogen removal is conserved.     

Photochemical dehydrogenation of 3-acetyl-3,4-dihydrocoumarin

Summary The ultraviolet irradiation of air-saturated alcoholic solutions of 3-acetyl-3,4-dihydrocoumarin (1) leads to the formation of 3-acetylcoumarin (2) and 3,3-diacetyl-3,3,4,4-tetrahydro-4,4-biscoumarin (3). The presence of molecular oxygen is an indispensable condition for the occurrence of a photodehydrogenation process, which is quantitatively when effected on silica gel.

5-Alpha- and 5-beta-2-deoxyintegristerone A,a 5-alpha and 5-beta isomer pair of ecdysteroids isolated from the Silene genus

5-Alpha-2-deoxyintegristerone A and 5-beta-2-deoxyintegristerone A were isolated from the aerial parts of Silene italica ssp. nemoralis (Waldst. and Kit.) Nyman using a specific combination of absorption column chromatography, preparative thin-layer chromatography and preparative HPLC. Both normal-phase and reversed-phase modes of HPLC were employed for isolation. Structural elucidation of 5-alpha-2-deoxyintegristerone A was completed by X-ray diffraction. Both 5-alpha-2-deoxyintegristerone A and 5-beta-2-deoxyintegristerone A were firstly isolated from this plant. We propose that 5-alpha-2-deoxyintegristerone A is not an artifact but an integral part of the ecdysteroid spectrum of Silene italica ssp. nemoralis (Waldst. and Kit.) Nyman.

Synthesis and Stereochemistry of 3-Hydroxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridines

A series of 1-benzyl-3-hydroxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridines, multipurpose synthons for fine organic synthesis and potential antiviral compounds, was prepared by the rearrangement of a number of 1-benzyl-3,4- epoxypiperidines under treatment with lithium amides. 3,4-Epoxypiperidines were obtained by oxidation of 1,2,5,6- tetrahydropyridines trifluoroacetates with a trifluoroperacetic acid. Convenient synthetic routes were found and developed. A conformation analysis of the series of stable 3,4-epoxypiperidines and 3-hydroxy-1,2,3,6- tetrahydropyridines was carried out.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 41, No. 2, 2005, pp. 281–287.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Grishina, Borisenko, Veselov, Petrenko.
