- Fmoc-based synthesis of glycolate ester peptides for the assembly of de novo designed multimeric proteins using subtiligase
-
An automated method utilizing Fmoc-protected amino acids has been developed for the synthesis of glycolate ester peptides as substrates for subtiligase. As a test of this methodology, peptide esters containing α-helical sequences that specify the association into 3- and 4-helix bundles were synthesized, and used to explore the suitability of subtiligase as a tool, for the generation of covalently linked bundles. The feasibility of creating de novo designed, single-chain or cyclic structures from simple, readily-synthesized modules has been demonstrated.

- 1,5-Disubstituted 1,2,3-Triazoles as Amide Bond Isosteres Yield Novel Tumor-Targeting Minigastrin Analogs
-
1,5-Disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles (1,5-Tz) are considered bioisosteres of cis-amide bonds. However, their use for enhancing the pharmacological properties of peptides or proteins is not yet well established. Aiming to illustrate their utility, we chose the peptide conjugate [Nle15]MG11 (DOTA-dGlu-Ala-Tyr-Gly-Trp-Nle-Asp-Phe-NH2) as a model compound since it is known that the cholecystokinin-2 receptor (CCK2R) is able to accommodate turn conformations. Analogs of [Nle15]MG11 incorporating 1,5-Tz in the backbone were synthesized and radiolabeled with lutetium-177, and their pharmacological properties (cell internalization, receptor binding affinity and specificity, plasma stability, and biodistribution) were evaluated and compared with [Nle15]MG11 as well as their previously reported analogs bearing 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles. Our investigations led to the discovery of novel triazole-modified analogs of [Nle15]MG11 with nanomolar CCK2R-binding affinity and 2-fold increased tumor uptake. This study illustrates that substitution of amides by 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles is an effective strategy to enhance the pharmacological properties of biologically active peptides.

- Engineering Dirhodium Artificial Metalloenzymes for Diazo Coupling Cascade Reactions**
-
Artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) are commonly used to control the stereoselectivity of catalytic reactions, but controlling chemoselectivity remains challenging. In this study, we engineer a dirhodium ArM to catalyze diazo cross-coupling to form an alkene that, in a one-pot cascade reaction, is reduced to an alkane with high enantioselectivity (typically >99 % ee) by an alkene reductase. The numerous protein and small molecule components required for the cascade reaction had minimal effect on ArM catalysis. Directed evolution of the ArM led to improved yields and E/Z selectivities for a variety of substrates, which translated to cascade reaction yields. MD simulations of ArM variants were used to understand the structural role of the cofactor on ArM conformational dynamics. These results highlight the ability of ArMs to control both catalyst stereoselectivity and chemoselectivity to enable reactions in complex media that would otherwise lead to undesired side reactions.

- Visible-Light-Induced Oxidative α-Alkylation of Glycine Derivatives with Ethers under Metal-Free Conditions
-
In this work, a visible-light-induced oxidative α-alkylation of glycine derivatives with ethers has been developed in the presence of catalytic Eosin Y. Under the blue light of a 3 W LED, a range of α-etherized glycine derivatives, including α-amino esters, α-amino ketones and α-amino amides, were achieved with good to excellent yields and functional group tolerance with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant at ambient temperature. The operationally easy procedure provides an economical, metal-free, and mild alternative for the synthesis of the α-etherized glycine derivatives.

- Visible-Light-Assisted Gold-Catalyzed Fluoroarylation of Allenoates
-
A strategically novel synthetic method for the fluoroarylation of allenic ester was developed that enables the expedient construction of a host of β-fluoroalkyl-containing cinnamate derivatives. The reaction proceeds through visible-light-promoted gold redox catalysis, occurs smoothly under very mild reaction conditions, accommodates a large variety of functional groups, and more importantly allows the incorporation of fluorine and aryl groups with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity. The concomitant activation mode for both the allene motif and the hydrogen fluoride is key for the success of the reaction.

- Synthesis, antiinflammatory activity, and molecular docking studies of bisphosphonic esters as potential MMP-8 and MMP-9 inhibitors
-
Bisphosphonic acids (or bisphosphonates) have been successfully used in the clinic treatment of bone diseases for over decades. Additionally, the antiinflammatory activity of these compounds has been gaining attention. In our previous work, we synthesized and in vivo evaluated the bisphosphonic esters 1 and 2, finding a moderate edema inhibition upon oral and topical administration on BALB/c mice. Thus, in this work, the bioisosteric replacement of an amide functional group for an ester afforded the new bisphosphonates 3–6, which had a moderate oral edema inhibition (25 mg/kg dose) and a significant topical antiinflammatory activity (2 mg/ear) on BALB/c mice, with 6 being the most active hit (55.9% edema inhibition), comparable to the positive control (55.5% edema inhibition) on a TPA topical model. Next, to assess the acute toxicity of the synthesized derivatives, test animals were administered with 50–100 mg/kg of 3–6, respectively, by an oral route, and after 14 days, neither lethality nor a significative weight loss were observed. Finally, a structure–activity relationship (SAR) and a molecular docking analysis of 3–6 helped us to explain the trend observed in biological tests. Considering all these aspects, we propose the inhibition of MMP-8 and MMP-9 as a possible action mechanism of the synthesized derivatives.

- Enantioselective Allenoate-Claisen Rearrangement Using Chiral Phosphate Catalysts
-
Herein we report the first highly enantioselective allenoate-Claisen rearrangement using doubly axially chiral phosphate sodium salts as catalysts. This synthetic method provides access to β-amino acid derivatives with vicinal stereocenters in up to 95percent ee. We also investigated the mechanism of enantioinduction by transition state (TS) computations with DFT as well as statistical modeling of the relationship between selectivity and the molecular features of both the catalyst and substrate. The mutual interactions of charge-separated regions in both the zwitterionic intermediate generated by reaction of an amine to the allenoate and the Na+-salt of the chiral phosphate leads to an orientation of the TS in the catalytic pocket that maximizes favorable noncovalent interactions. Crucial arene-arene interactions at the periphery of the catalyst lead to a differentiation of the TS diastereomers. These interactions were interrogated using DFT calculations and validated through statistical modeling of parameters describing noncovalent interactions.

- Sulfinate-Engaged Nucleophilic Addition Induced Allylic Alkylation of Allenoates
-
A strategically novel Pd-catalyzed nucleophilic addition induced allylic alkylation reaction (NAAA) of allenoates has been successfully accomplished. By judiciously integrating ZnCl2-promoted Michael addition with Pd-catalyzed allylic alkylation, allenoates readily undergo allyl-sunfonylation at the internal double bond, thus providing a straightforward avenue for the rapid assembly of a host of structurally diversified α-allyl-β-sufonylbut-3-enoate derivatives. The success of this transformation profits from a delicate control of the reaction kinetic of each elementary step, thanks to the synergistic interaction of Pd/Zn bimetallic system, thus suppressing either direct allylic sulfonylation or premature quenching of therein in situ generated ester enolate intermediate. Furthermore, by expanding the scope of workable Michael acceptor beyond those previously required doubly activated ones, such as methylenemalononitrile, the present work substantially enriches the repertoire of NAAA reactions.

- Virtual Screening Identifies Irreversible FMS-like Tyrosine Kinase 3 Inhibitors with Activity toward Resistance-Conferring Mutations
-
The use of covalent irreversible binding inhibitors is an established concept for drug development. Usually, the discovery of new irreversible kinase inhibitors occurs serendipitously, showing that efficient rational approaches for the rapid discovery of new drugs are needed. Herein, we report a virtual screening strategy that led to the discovery of irreversible inhibitors of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) involved in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia. A virtual screening library was designed to target the highly conserved Cys828 residue preceding the DFG motif by modification of reported reversible inhibitors with chemically reactive groups. Prospective covalent docking allowed the identification of two lead series, resulting in a massive increase in inhibition of kinase activity and cell viability by irreversible inhibitors compared to the corresponding reversible scaffolds. Lead compound 4b (BSc5371) displays superior cytotoxicity in FLT3-dependent cell lines to compounds in recent clinical trials and overcomes drug-resistant mutations.

- Two Distinct Ag(I)- And Au(I)-Catalyzed Olefinations between α-Diazo Esters and N-Boc-Derived Imines

Metal-catalyzed reactions between α-diazo esters and imines were well-known to yield aziridine derivatives exclusively. This work reports two new olefination reactions between N-Boc-derived (Boc = tert-Butyloxycarbonyl) imines and α-diazo esters with Ag(I) and Au(I) catalysts, respectively. Our mechanistic studies reveal that these new olefinations involve an initial attack of diazo esters on metal/imine complexes to form Mannich-addition intermediates, which subsequently afford α-aryl-β-aminoacrylates via a Roskamp reaction, or to form β-aryl-β-aminoacrylates via the formation of silver carbenes.

- A Sulfoxide-Based Isobaric Labelling Reagent for Accurate Quantitative Mass Spectrometry
-
Modern proteomics requires reagents for exact quantification of peptides in complex mixtures. Peptide labelling is most typically achieved with isobaric tags that consist of a balancer and a reporter part that separate in the gas phase. An ingenious distribution of stable isotopes provides multiple reagents with identical molecular weight but a different mass of the reporter groups, allowing relative quantification of multiple samples in one measurement. Here we report a new isobaric labelling reagent, where the balancer and the reporter are linked by a sulfoxide group, which, based on the sulfoxide pyrolysis, leads to easy and asymmetric cleavage at low fragmentation energy. The fragmentation of our new design is significantly improved, yielding more intense complementary ion signals, allowing complementary ion cluster analysis as well.

- A Tunable Route to Prepare α,β-Unsaturated Esters and α,β-Unsaturated-γ-Keto Esters through Copper-Catalyzed Coupling of Alkenyl Boronic Acids with Phosphorus Ylides
-
A tunable strategy to prepare α,β-unsaturated esters and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters in good to excellent yields was developed through copper-catalyzed oxidative coupling of phosphorus ylides with alkenyl boronic acids under mild conditions. The reaction without water afforded α,β-unsaturated esters, ketones, and amides while α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters, 1,4-α,β-unsaturated diketones and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto amides were obtained when using 5.0 equiv. of water. H2O18 labeling experiments showed that water played an important role in the formation of α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters. A plausible formation mechanism for α,β-unsaturated esters and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters was proposed based on mechanistic studies. Phosphonium salts could also be used directly as coupling partners instead of phosphorus ylides. The reaction exhibited a broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, good regioselectivity, and diverse coupling products. (Figure presented.).

- Fast Living Polymerization and Helix-Sense-Selective Polymerization of Diazoacetates Using Air-Stable Palladium(II) Catalysts
-
In this work, air-stable palladium(II) catalysts bearing bidentate phosphine ligands were designed and prepared, which could initiate fast and living polymerizations of various diazoacetate monomers under mild conditions. The polymerization afforded the desired polymers in high yields with controlled molecular weights (Mns) and narrow molecular weight distributions (Mw/Mns). The Mns of the isolated polymers were linearly correlated to the initial feed ratios of monomer to catalyst, confirming the living/controlled manner of the polymerizations. The Mn also increased linearly with the monomer conversion, and all of the isolated polymers showed narrow Mw/Mns. The polymerization was relatively fast and could be accomplished within several minutes. Such fast living polymerization method can be applied to a wide range of diazoacetate monomers in various organic solvents at room temperature in air. Taking advantage of the living nature, we facilely prepared a series of block copolymers through chain extension reactions. The amphiphilic block copolymers synthesized by this method exhibited interesting self-assembly properties. Moreover, polymerization of achiral bulky diazoacetate by Pd(II) catalysts bearing a chiral bidentate phosphine ligand leads to the formation of polymers with high optical activity due to the formation of the predominantly one-handed helix of the main chain. The helix sense of the polymers was determined by the chirality of the Pd(II) catalysts.

A novel organocatalyzed direct aldol reaction of aldehydes to silyl glyoxylates is disclosed. This method provides an efficient route to α-hydroxysilanes with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) and high diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr). In the new activation model of silyl glyoxylates, the hydrogen bond is critical to the reaction. A carbonyl group directly attached to silicon in acylsilanes could be activated by coordination to the proton of hydroxyl and carboxylic acid via a hydrogen bond. Moreover, commercially available cis-l-4-hydroxyproline is an ideal organocatalyst for activating both aldehydes and acylsilanes.

The study of the cyclopropanation reaction revealed that the porphyrin skeleton is composed of two ‘totem’ parts which were independently responsible for the observed enantio- and diastereoselectivities. To further our research we also investigated the catalytic role of the methoxy axial ligand coordinated to the iron atom. The molecular structure of Fe(2)(OMe) was optimized by DFT calculations which were also employed to achieve a better understanding of the mechanistic details of the carbene transfer reaction.

- Novel ibuprofen prodrugs with improved pharmacokinetics and non-ulcerogenic potential
-
In the present study, we evaluated the anti-inflammatory activity with pharmacokinetic, ulcerogenic properties of various synthesized prodrugs of ibuprofen in experimental animals. Prodrugs 2, 6, 9, 10, 12, and 14 were found to possess significant anti-inflammatory activity with almost non-ulcerogenic potential than standard drug ibuprofen 1a in both normal and inflammation-induced rats. Metabolic stability of prodrugs 2, 6, 9, 10, 12, and 14 were also studied in rat liver microsomes and oral bioavailability was determined by estimating area under curve (AUC) and plasma concentration of these prodrugs at various time intervals. The experimental findings elicited higher AUC and plasma concentration at 1 and 2 h indicating improved oral bioavailability as compared to parent ibuprofen. These prodrugs are found to have least gastric ulceration with retain anti-inflammatory activity observed in experimental animals. Therefore, present experimental findings demonstrated significant improvement of various pharmacokinetic properties with least ulcerogenic potential of ester prodrugs of ibuprofen an anti-inflammatory agent

- Preparation of a novel silica gel-adsorbed Br?nsted acid catalyst for the solvent-free esterification of bromoacetic acid with benzyl alcohol
-
A new bifunctional Br?nsted acid catalyst that contains two sulfo groups was prepared. The adsorption of this new bifunctional Br?nsted acid catalyst on silica gel made it possible to be reused 10 times without a loss of catalytic activity in the solvent-free esterification of bromoacetic acid with an equiv. of benzyl alcohol without the formation of dibenzyl ether.

- Human neutrophil elastase phosphonic inhibitors with improved potency of action
-
Herein, we present the synthesis and the measurement of the inhibitory activity of novel peptidyl derivatives of α-aminoalkylphosphonate diaryl esters as human neutrophil elastase inhibitors. Their selectivity against other serine proteases, including porcine pancreatic elastase, chymotrypsin, and trypsin, was also demonstrated. We also describe the preparation of single peptide diastereomers. The most active and selective compound developed possessed a kinact/KI of 2353000 M-1 s -1, which is the most potent irreversible peptidyl inhibitor of human neutrophil elastase reported to date. The peptidyl inhibitors were demonstrated to be stable in PBS buffer and human plasma, as were their complexes with HNE.

- Design of fulleropyrrolidine derivatives as an acceptor molecule in a thin layer organic solar cell
-
A systematic study on the design of fulleropyrrolidine derivatives as the acceptor of photovoltaic cells has been carried out using poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) as the model base polymer. It was found that N-methoxyethoxyethyl-2-(2- methoxyphenyl)fulleropyrrolidine worked as a good acceptor partner with P3HT and a high power conversion efficiency (PCE) (3.44%) was obtained; this is superior to that of the P3HT polymer including methyl [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butylate ([C60]-PCBM) under the same experimental conditions.

- Synthesis of fulleropyrrolidine-imidazolium salt hybrids and their solubility in various organic solvents
-
Eight types of fulleropyrrolidine-imidazolium hybrids have been synthesized and their solubility determined in various types of organic solvents. The solvent solubility of fullerene derivatives depends on the alky side chain on the imidazolium ring; modification of solvent solubility of the fulleropyrrolidine-imidazolium hybrids has thus been accomplished by introduction of an appropriate alkyl group using imidazoyl moiety as the 'functional group connector'. The imidazolium group seems to act not only as the connector but also as an important functional group that controls the solubility.

- An Expedient Synthesis of Cationic Rhodamine Fluorescent Probes Suitable for Conjugation to Amino Acids and Peptides
-
Rhodamine 19 benzyloxycarbonylmethyl ester bromide 8 and rhodamine 19 4-chloromethyl-1-phenylmethyl ester chloride 12 act as precursors to cationic fluorescent probes. Molecules containing free amine or carboxylate functional groups, respectively, can be attached in a one-step procedure, yielding the desired probes without the need for chromatographic purification. As a proof of concept the method was applied to the attachment of amino acid and dipeptide residues through either the N- or C-termini. The precursor molecules 8 and 12 are readily synthesized from the inexpensive, commercially available dye rhodamine 6G.
