Regioselective Acylation of 2＇- or 3＇-Hydroxyl Group in Salicin： Hemisynthesis of Acylated Salicins

Salicin-based phenolic glycosides（PGs） are important defensive substances against herbivore feeding and have good bioactivities. In this work, a novel approach for the synthesis of salicin-based PGs has been developed, by which PGs of 2＇-O-acetylsaliein（5a）, 3＇-O-acetylsalicin（gb） and 3＇-O-benzoylsalicin（Sd） were hemisynthesized. The effects of acylation reagent, solvent and temperature on the regioselective acylation of 2＇- or 3＇-hydroxyl groups of salicin mediated by dibutyltin oxide were investigated. The optimal conditions under which the best regioselectivity reached for 5a-5d were discovered, respectively. Moreover, a tentative tin-oxygen coordination mechanism was put forward to explain the different regioselectivities shown under different conditions.

The synthesis and photoactivated cytotoxicity of novel 5-phenyl-3- （2,2＇：5＇,2″-terthien-5-yl）-4,5-dihydro-lH-pyrazolines

A series of novel 5-phenyl-3-（2,2＇：5＇,2″-terthien-5-yl）-4,5-dihydro-lH-pyrazolines were synthesized in this report. Their photoactivated cytotoxicities on the 5podoptera litura （SL） cell line were evaluated using the MTT method. It was noticed that the inhibitory activities of all the conjugates was enhanced when irradiated with UV-A light. Compounds 4, 6 and 8 were found to be most effective with inhibition rates of 88.1%, 88.0%, and 90,5%, respectively, For compound B, the inhibition rate value was only slightly enhanced under the irradiation treatment （78.3%） compared to the dark treatment （74.8%）. The relationship analysis between structure and activity showed that the middle thiophene ring played an important role on the inhibitory activities. It was shown that these compounds could be the potential candidates for new photoactivated pesticides.

Compounds 9a and 9c showed potent inhibitory activity against the IGROV1 (Ovarian Cancer) cell line.     

Total synthesis of 2',3',4',5',5' '-(2)h(5)-ribonucleosides: the key building blocks for NMR structure elucidation of large RNA

The diastereospecific chemical syntheses of uridine-2',3',4',5',5' '-(2)H(5) (21a), adenosine-2',3',4',5',5' '-(2)H(5) (21b), cytidine-2',3',4',5',5' '-(2)H(5)(2)H(5) (21c), and guanosine-2',3',4',5',5' '-(2)H(5) (21d) (>97 atom % (2)H at C2', C3', C4', and C5'/C5' ') have been achieved for their use in the solution NMR structure determination of oligo-RNA by the Uppsala "NMR-window" concept (refs 4a-c, 5a, 6), in which a small (1)H segment is NMR-visible, while the rest is made NMR-invisible by incorporation of the deuterated blocks 21a-d. The deuterated ribonucleosides 21a-d have been prepared by the condensation of appropriately protected aglycone with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-(4-toluoyl)-alpha/beta-D-ribofuranose-2,3,4,5,5'-(2)H(5) (19), which has been obtained via diastereospecific deuterium incorporation at the C2 center of appropriate D-ribose-(2)H(4) derivatives either through an oxidation-reduction-inversion sequence or a one-step deuterium-proton exchange in high overall yield (44% and 24%, respectively).     

Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, axial base coordination equilibrium and photolytic kinetics studies of a new coenzyme B12 analogue-3'-deoxy-2',3'-anhydrothymidylcobalamin

A new coenzyme B12 (AdoCbl) analogue, 3'-deoxy-2',3'-didehydrothymidylcobalamin (2',3'-anThyCbl) was prepared by the reaction of 5'-iodo-3'-deoxy-2',3'-dihydrothmidine with reduced B12a, and characterized by UV-Vis, CD, ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopies. Its axial base (dbzm) coordination equilibria with pH's and temperatures were investigated and showed similar features to those of coenzyme B12. Photolytic dynamics studies under homolytic and heterolytic conditions demonstrated that the Co-C bond of the analogue is slightly more photolabile relative to coenzyme B12.     

A theoretical study on the low-lying excited states of 2,2':5',2'-terthiophene and 2,2':5',2':5',2'-quaterthiophene.

The nature and properties of the low-lying singlet and triplet valence excited states of 2,2':5',2'-terthiophene (terthiophene) and 2,2':5',2':5',2'-quaterthiophene (tetrathiophene) are discussed on the basis of high-level ab initio computations. The spectroscopic features determined experimentally for short alpha-oligothiophenes are rationalised on theoretical grounds. Special attention is devoted to the nonradiative decay process through intersystem crossing (ISC) from the singlet to the triplet manifold, which is known to be relatively less efficient in tetrathiophene. Along the geometry relaxation of the S1 state of terthiophene, the S1 and T2 states become degenerate, which leads to a favourable situation for the occurrence of ISC. The parallel process is expected to be less favoured in tetrathiophene because of the less efficient spin-orbit coupling and the increase of the S1-T2 energy gap.     

Novel 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide analogue: adenosine 3',5'-cyclic boranomonophosphate

A general procedure for the first synthesis of a 3',5'-cyclic boranomonophosphate was established. Specifically, adenosine 3',5'-cyclic boranomonophosphosphate (cyclic AMPB, 4c), a P-borane (BH(3)) analogue of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP), was synthesized via a phosphite approach in good yield. The method is also applicable for syntheses of natural cAMP and its phosphorothioate analogue. The two diasteromers of cyclic AMPB 4c were separated, and their chemical structures were established via spectroscopic methods.     

Hydrolysis of 2',3'-O-methyleneadenos-5'-yl bis(2',5'-di-O-methylurid-3'-yl) phosphate, a sugar O-alkylated trinucleoside 3',3',5'-monophosphate: implications for the mechanism of large ribozymes

Hydrolytic reactions of 2',3'-O-methyleneadenos-5'-yl bis(2',5'-di-O-methylurid-3'-yl) phosphate (1), a sugar O-alkylated trinucleoside 3',3',5'-monophosphate, have been followed by RP HPLC over a wide pH range. Under neutral and mildly acidic conditions, the only reaction observed was a pH-independent cleavage of the O-C5' bond of the 5'-linked nucleoside. Under more alkaline conditions nucleophilic attack by hydroxide ion starts to compete. The reaction is first order in [OH(-)] and becomes predominant at pH 10. Each of the 3'-linked nucleosides is displaced 2.9 times as readily as the 5'-linked one. To determine the beta(lg) value for the hydroxide ion catalyzed hydrolysis of 1, two diesters (2a,b) having 2',3'-O-methyleneadenosine (7) and 2',5'-di-O-methyluridine (4) as leaving groups were hydrolyzed under alkaline conditions. Since the beta(lg) value for this reaction is known, DeltapK(a) between 4 and 7 could be calculated. The beta(lg) for the hydrolysis of 1 was estimated to be -0.5 with use of this information. The mechanisms of the partial reactions and the role of leaving group properties in ribozyme reactions of large ribozymes are discussed.     

Hydrolytic stability of 2',3'-O-methyleneadenos-5'-yl 2',5'-di-O-methylurid-3'-yl 5'-O-methylurid-3'(2')-yl phosphate: implications to feasibility of existence of phosphate-branched RNA under physiological conditions

Hydrolytic reactions of 2',3'-O-methyleneadenos-5'-yl 2',5'-di-O-methylurid-3'-yl 5'-O-methylurid-3'(2')-yl phosphate (1a,b) have been followed by RP-HPLC over a wide pH range to evaluate the feasibility of occurrence of phosphate-branched RNA under physiological conditions. At pH <2, where the decomposition of is first order in [H3O+], the P-O5' bond is cleaved 1.5 times as rapidly as the P-O3' bond. Under these conditions, the reaction probably proceeds by an attack of the 2'-OH on the phosphotriester monocation. Over a relatively wide range from pH 2 to 5, the hydrolysis is pH-independent, referring to rapid initial deprotonation of the attacking 2'-OH followed by general acid catalyzed departure of the leaving nucleoside. The P-O5' bond is cleaved 3 times as rapidly as the P-O3' bond. At pH 6, the reaction becomes first order in [HO-], consistent with an attack of the 2'-oxyanion on neutral phosphate. The product distribution is gradually inversed: in 10 mmol L(-1) aqueous sodium hydroxide, cleavage of the P-O3' bond is favored over P-O5' by a factor of 7.3. The results of the present study suggest that the half-life for the cleavage of under physiological conditions is only 100 s. Even at pH 2, where is most stable, the half-life for its cleavage is less than one hour and the isomerization between and is even more rapid than cleavage. The mechanisms of the partial reactions are discussed.
