Three New Resin Glycosides and a New Tetrahydropyran Derivative from the Seeds of <i>Quamoclit pennata</i>

Three new resin glycosides, quamoclins V (1), VI (2), and VII (3) and a new tetrahydropyran derivative, quamopyran (4), were isolated from the seeds of Quamoclit pennata BOJER (Convolvulaceae). The chemical structures of these compounds were determined primarily on the basis of spectroscopic data. The carboxyl group of the aglycone, 11S-convolvulinolic acid, of 1 and 2 was linked intermoleculary with a hydroxy group of the sugar moiety to form a macrocyclic ester structure, as in already known jalapins, and 3 was an acylated glycosidic acid methyl ester. All of the sugar moieties of 1-3 were acylated by one 2S-methylbutyric acid. Compound 4 was a diketone having a tetrahydropyran ring.     

Pentaerythrityltetramine scaffolds for solid-phase combinatorial chemistry

Straightforward synthesis for two pentaerythrityltetramine precursors, 2,2-bis(azidomethyl)propane-1,3-diamine (1) and 2-[N-(allyloxycarbonyl)aminomethyl]-2-azidomethylpropane-1,3-diamine (2), has been described. Both propane-1,3-diamines have been attached by reductive amination to a solid-supported backbone amide linker derived from 4-(4-formyl-3,5-dimethoxyphenoxy)butyric acid. The presence of the two methoxy substituents on the linker is essential to avoid cross-linking between two linkers. The remaining free primary amino group of the propane-1,3-diamine moiety may then be selectively acylated with an appropriately protected amino acid using conventional N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide/1-hydroxybenzotriazole (DCC/HOBt) activation without any interference by the secondary amino function. The latter group may be subsequently acylated by an anhydride method. Sequential reduction of the azido group and removal of the allyloxycarbonyl protection from 2 allow further coupling of two different amino acids, and hence, this handle may be utilized in construction of branched structures containing four different amino acids or peptides. Solid-supported 1 may, in turn, be used for the synthesis of similar constructs containing two identical branches. It is worth noting that no acid-labile protecting groups are required in this approach, and hence, this dimension may be saved for the cleavage of the linker. The applicability of the scaffolds to library synthesis has been demonstrated by preparation of 11 pentaerythrityl-branched tetra- and octapeptides.     

Hydrophilic Interaction Chromatography on Silica: Group Analysis of Grape Anthocyanins

A group control procedure is developed, in which the anthocyanin complex of a grape extract is divided into six groups without differentiation by aglycons: 3-glucosides (Zone III); 3-glucosides acylated with p-coumaric acid (Zone I); 3-glucosides acylated with acetic acid (Zone II); 3,5-diglucosides (Zone IV); 3,5-diglucosides acylated with p-coumaric acid (Zone IV); and 3,5-diglucosides acylated with acetic acid (Zone V). The anthocyanins were separated by hydrophilic interaction chromatography in a column packed with a silica using the mobile phases of acetonitrile–water (20–8 vol %) containing 0.5 vol % of orthophosphoric acid. Due to the low viscosity of the mobile phase and the complete separation of anthocyanin groups, the procedure suitable for determining the inheritance of genetic traits in the selection of grapes is transferred to a format of microcolumn chromatography using MiLiChrome chromatographs.     

PipPhos and MorfPhos: privileged monodentate phosphoramidite ligands for rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation

A library of 20 monodentate phosphoramidite ligands has been prepared and applied in rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation. This resulted in the identification of two ligands, PipPhos and MorfPhos, that afford excellent and in several cases unprecedented enantioselectivities in the hydrogenation of N-acyldehydroamino acid esters, dimethyl itaconate, acyclic N-acylenamides, and cyclic N-acylenamides. In addition, a method for the parallel enantioselectivity determination of eight acylated amines is presented.     

Solid-phase synthesis of trisubsituted guanidines

The solid-phase library synthesis of trisubstituted guanidines was accomplished. Amines were loaded onto the 4-formyl-3,5-dimethoxyphenoxymethyl linker via reductive amination. Subsequent acylation with Fmoc-4-aminomethylbenzoic acid followed by Fmoc deprotection gave solid-supported primary amines. Alternatively, sulfonylation of resin-bound secondary amines with 4-cyanobenzenesulfonyl chloride followed by borane reduction also gave solid-supported primary amines. Both resins were acylated with isocyanates to furnish solid-supported ureas. Dehydration of ureas with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride in pyridine gave solid-supported carbodiimides. Nucleophilic addition of amines to the carbodiimide bond followed by cleavage off the solid support gave trisubstituted guanidines.     

Electrochemical Deallylation of α‐Allyl Cyclic Amines and Synthesis of Optically Active Quaternary Cyclic Amino Acids

Electrochemical oxidation of α‐allylated and α‐benzylated N‐acylated cyclic amines by using a graphite anode easily affords the corresponding α‐methoxylated products with up to 76 % yield. Ease of oxidation was affected by the type of electrode, the size of cyclic amine, and the nature of the protecting group. This method was successfully applied to the synthesis of optically active N‐acylated α‐alkyl‐α‐amino acid esters with up to 99 % ee.     

Solid-phase synthesis of 1,5-disubstituted 2-aryliminoimidazolidines

The solid-phase synthesis of 1,5-disubstituted 2-aryliminoimidazolidines, starting from resin-bound N-acylated amino acid amides, is described. Exhaustive reduction of resin-bound acylated amino acid amides with borane-THF afforded the corresponding disecondary amines. Further reaction with arylisothiocyanates in the presence of mercuric chloride (HgCl(2)) yielded the corresponding resin-bound 1,5-disubstituted 2-aryliminoimidazolidines. Cleavage of the product from the resin using HF/anisole (95/5) for 1.5 h at 0 degrees C gave the desired products in good yield and purity. The preparation of a large combinatorial library of such compounds is also discussed.     

Solid-phase synthesis of 5-isoxazol-4-yl-[1,2,4]oxadiazoles

A library of isoxazole and 1,2,4-oxadiazole-containing diheterocyclic compounds has been prepared. Our strategy was explored in solution phase first as follows. PMB-protected 3-butyn-2-ol was deprotonated with nBuLi, acylated with methyl chloroformate, and then employed in a nitrile oxide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (benzaldehyde oxime in the presence of bleach) to afford the isoxazole-substituted carboxylic acid methyl ester. Ester saponification with aqueous NaOH followed by a two-step condensation with benzamidoxime gave the final isoxazole-oxadiazole diheterocyclic product in good yield. With some modifications, we next explored this chemistry on Wang resin, which led to 18 final products that were cleaved from polymer beads with 50% TFA in dichloromethane.     

Sequential O- and N-acylation protocol for high-yield preparation and modification of rotaxanes: synthesis, functionalization, structure, and intercomponent interaction of rotaxanes

A pseudorotaxane consisting of a 24-membered crown ether and secondary ammonium salt with the hydroxy group at the terminus was quantitatively acylated by bulky acid anhydride in the presence of tributylphosphane as catalyst to afford the corresponding rotaxane in high yield. Large-scale synthesis without chromatographic separation was easily achieved. The ammonium group in the resulting rotaxane was quantitatively acylated with excess electrophile in the presence of excess trialkylamine. Various N-functionalized rotaxanes were prepared by this sequential double-acylation protocol. 1H NMR spectra and X-ray crystallographic analyses of the rotaxanes showed that the crown ether component was captured on the ammonium group in ammonium-type rotaxane by strong hydrogen-bonding intercomponent interaction. The conformation around the ammonium group was fixed by the hydrogen-bonding interaction. Meanwhile, the conformation of the amide-type rotaxane was determined by the weak CH/pi interaction between the methylene group in crown ether and the benzene ring of the axle component. The N-acylation of ammonium-type rotaxane is useful for the preparation of both functionalized rotaxanes and weak intercomponent interaction-based rotaxanes.     

Highly powerful and practical acylation of alcohols with acid anhydride catalyzed by Bi(OTf)(3).

Bi(OTf)(3)-catalyzed acylation of alcohols with acid anhydride was evaluated in comparison with other acylation methods. The Bi(OTf)(3)/acid anhydride protocol was so powerful that sterically demanding or tertiary alcohols could be acylated smoothly. Less reactive acylation reagents such as benzoic and pivalic anhydride are also activated by this catalysis. In these cases, a new technology was developed in order to overcome difficulty in separation of the acylated product from the remaining acylating reagent: methanolysis of the unreacted anhydride into easily separable methyl ester realized quite easy separation of the desired acylation product. The Bi(OTf)(3)/acid anhydride protocol was applicable to a wide spectrum of alcohols bearing various functionalities. Acid-labile THP- or TBS-protected alcohol, furfuryl alcohol, and geraniol could be acylated as well as base-labile alcohols. Even acylation of functionalized tertiary alcohols was effected at room temperature.     

An efficient synthesis of 2-amino-3-cyano-2-pyrrolin-4-ones, via the corresponding open chain tautomers (aminoacetylmalononitriles)

Malononitrile has been found to be acylated effectively using N-protected glycines by simultaneous activation of an amino acid carbonyl group and a malononitrile methylene group using carbonyl diimidazole (CDI). The corresponding aminoacetonitriles were isolated as enols and/or as their tautomeric forms, 2-amino-3-cyano-2-pyrrolin-4-ones.     

[1] Benzofuro[2,3-d] pyridazines. VI. Etude des reactions de scission des acyltetrahydrobenzofuropyridazones

The cleavage of the pyridazine ring of the acyltetrahydro [1] benzofuro [2,3-d] pyridazones was carried out by hydrolysis, alcoholysis or aminolysis reactions and they affect the lactam 3,4-bond. They lead chiefly to benzofuran derivatives with acid, ester, amide or hydrazide groups in the 2-position and eventually an acylated methylhydrazine group in the 3-position. The cyclization reactions of 3-hydrazinomethylbenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid and its derivatives or ethyl 3-bromome thylbenzofuran-2-carboxylate affords tetrahydrobenzofuropyridazones. The nmr spectra were studied.     

Acylation of novobiocin by carboxylic acid anhydrides: preparation and characterization of semi-synthetic novenamines

The acylation of novobiocin by carboxylic acid anhydrides leading to preparation of three families of semi-synthetic acylated novenamine analogues is reported. ESI-MS was used to monitor the reaction progress and enabled the isolation of intermediate compounds that provided insights into the sequence of acylation steps during the reaction. The chemoselectivity of the reaction depends on the carboxylic acid anhydride. The potential of the acylated novenamine analogues as leads for the development of antibacterial agents is discussed.     

Neoglycopeptide dendrimer libraries as a source of lectin binding ligands

[structure: see text] A 15 625-membered peptide dendrimer combinatorial library was acylated with an alpha-C-fucosyl residue at its four N-termini and screened for binding to fucose-specific lectins. Dendrimer FD2 (Fuc-alpha-CH2CO-Lys-Pro-Leu)4(Lys-Phe-Lys-Ile)2Lys-His-Ile-NH2 was identified as a potent ligand against Ulex europaeus lectin UEA-I (IC50 = 11 microM) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa lectin PA-IIL (IC50 = 0.14 microM).     

Synthesis of C-heteryl-substituted aminomethylphosphonic acids derivatives

The available diethyl 5-hydrazino-2-p-tolyl-1,3-oxazol-1-ylphosphonate was readily acylated with chlorides of carboxylic acids of heterocyclic series. On heating in acetic acid it underwent the oxazole ring cleavage, recyclization and diethylation that was used to prepar the substituted 2-p-toluylaminomethylphosphonic acids containing a series of 2-heteryl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-5-yl residues in the α-position relative to the phosponyl group.     

Encodamers: unnatural peptide oligomers encoded in RNA

Conventional display libraries are generally limited to the 20 naturally occurring amino acids. Here, we demonstrate that novel unnatural amide-linked oligomers can be constructed and encoded in an attached RNA for the purpose of mRNA display library design. To do this, we translated templates of various lengths in a protein synthesis system modified to promote sense codon suppression. Unnatural residues were escorted to the ribosome as chemically acylated tRNAs added to the translation mixture. Our experiments reveal that unnatural peptide oligomers ("encodamers") consisting of an N-substituted amino acid are readily generated as mRNA-peptide fusions with excellent stepwise efficiency. The N-substituted polyamides have strikingly improved proteolytic stability relative to their naturally encoded counterparts. Overall, our work indicates that the ribosome can be used as a synthesis platform to generate encoded combinatorial chemistry outside the universal genetic code.     

Chemoselective acylation of fully deprotected hydrazino acetyl peptides. Application to the synthesis of lipopetides.

Fully deprotected N-terminal alpha-hydrazino acetyl peptides were synthesized and chemoselectively acylated on the hydrazine moiety with various fatty acid succinimidyl esters or N-(cholesterylcarbonyloxy) succinimide to give lipopeptides of high purity. The buffer and pH were adjusted in order to minimize the oxidation of the hydrazine moiety and to achieve the best conversion and selectivity. The acylation was performed in a citrate-phosphate buffer/2-methylpropan-2-ol mixture of pH 5.1. The pKa of the alpha-hydrazino acetyl group on our model peptide was found to be 6.45, i.e., about 2 units lower than the pKa of a glycyl residue. The reaction was subsequently applied to the synthesis of a 38AA peptide derivatized by a palmitoyl group.     

Development of a temporary marker for peptides

3-[(N,N-Dimethylaminophenyl)-4'-diazenyl]benzoic acid was coupled with several amino acid esters and the product acylated further with Boc. The material thus obtained was then submitted to cleavage by electrolysis and nucleophilic attack in order to evaluate the possibility of using this chromophore as a temporary marker.     

Synthesis and biochemical properties of oligodeoxynucleotides acylated by the chemically stable 2-(trimethylsilyl)benzoyl (TMSBz) group at the 5′ or 3′ terminus

Oligodeoxynucleotides acylated with a 2-(trimethylsilyl)benzoyl (TMSBz) group at the 5′ or 3′ terminus were synthesized according to the general method used for DNA synthesis. The acylated DNA oligomers could be easily purified due to the high lipophilicity of the TMSBz group and showed enhanced hybridization ability and resistance to exonucleases.
