- Catalytic Staudinger Reduction at Room Temperature
-
We report an efficient catalytic Staudinger reduction at room temperature that enables the preparation of a structurally diverse set of amines from azides in excellent yields. The reaction is based on the use of catalytic amounts of triphenylphosphine as a phosphine source and diphenyldisiloxane as a reducing agent. Our catalytic Staudinger reduction exhibits a high chemoselectivity, as exemplified by reduction of azides over other common functionalities, including nitriles, alkenes, alkynes, esters, and ketones.

- Design and synthesis of peptides passing through the blood-brain barrier
-
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective membranous barrier regulating the transport of substances in blood into the brain parenchyma. At present, delivery of biologically active peptides or peptide drugs into the brain is quite an important subject from the standpoint of chemotherapy for brain diseases H-MeTyr-Arg-MeArg-D-Leu-NH(CH2)8NH2 termed 001-C8 was first synthesized to elucidate the structural specificity of peptides for passing through the BBB. The Na-methylamino acid and D-amino acid residues were appropriately situated in this peptide to protect against the digestion by peptidase. Furthermore, a number of basic peptides were prepared as 001-C8 analogs for studying the relationship between structure and BBB permeability of peptides.

- An approach towards more selective anticancer agents
-
A promising approach towards better targeted anticancer drug therapy takes advantage of enhanced expression of proteases associated with human malignancies. Especially plasminogen activator activity has been found to be substantially increased, leading to an enhanced activity of the serine protease plasmin. Bifunctional alkylating agents, such as N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-nitrosoureas, display broad spectrum anticancer activity, but also exhibit considerable systemic toxicity. We describe here the synthesis of new N-nitrosourea-based prodrugs designed to become activated by tumor-associated proteases, to provide for enhanced antitumor activity and reduced systemic toxicity. Tripeptides representing substrates for plasmin were linked by an amide bond to N'-(2-aminoethyl)-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-nitrosourea and the corresponding N'-methyl derivative. Synthesis and plasmin-triggered decomposition of these new tripeptide conjugates is described. Cancer cells expressing high plasminogen activator activity are highly sensitive to the new prodrugs in the presence of plasminogen, but not in its absence.
