Synthesis of novel non-natural spiro[2.3]hexane amino acids,the conformationally restricted analogs of γ-aminobutyric acid

3-Methylenecyclobutanecarboxylic acid and its methyl ester were used as the starting compounds for the synthesis of new spiro[2.3]hexane amino acids, the conformationally rigid analogs of γ-aminobutyric acid, namely, 5-aminospiro[2.3]hexanecarboxylic and 5-amino-spiro[2.3]hexanephosphonic acids, promising modulators of GABAergic cascades in the human central nervous system. The methods developed for the synthesis of the target amino acids are based on the reactions of catalytic [1+2] cycloaddition of diazoacetic and diazophosphonic esters to 3-substituted methylenecyclobutanes, as well as on a modified Curtius reaction for the transformation of a carboxy group to the amine one.     

Zinc-containing derivatives of 2-aminopyrimidine

A platform containing three anticancer components is proposed. The components are a radioactive ⁶⁹mZn isotope and zinc complexes, where both zinc and ligand exhibit anticancer properties. Two zinc-containing complexes, namely (2-AP)₂ZnCl₂ and (2-AP)₂Zn(Sal)₂ (AP is 2-aminopyrimidine, Sal is salicylate) were synthesized and characterized. Their cytotoxicity with respect to some leukemia cell lines is demonstrated. Their stability in physiological solution and percentage of apoptosis (by flow cytometry) are investigated. Stable complexes of compounds with the isotope ⁶⁹mZn were characterized by TLC and autoradiography.     

Asymmetric Ir-catalyzed hydrogenation of 1,5-benzodiazepinones using mixtures of ligands

The catalytic hydrogenation of benzodiazepinones using metal complexes with phosphite and phosphoramidite ligands was carried out for the first time. The mixed-ligand catalytic systems containing a chiral phosphoramidite or phosphite in combination with an achiral phosphine were shown to exhibit a higher enantioselectivity compared to catalysts containing homocombinations of chiral ligands.     

Functional copolymers with triazole and acetate fragments

New functional copolymers of different composition with triazole and acetate fragments in the macromolecules were synthesized by free radical copolymerization of 1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole with vinyl acetate. The reactivity of the comonomers was studied and the monomer copolymerization constants were calculated. The structure and composition of the copolymers were determined by elemental analysis, IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy.
