A novel and efficient method for cleavage of phenacylesters by magnesium reduction with acetic acid

(Equation Presented) In the present study, we use magnesium turnings as a new deprotection reagent for the phenacyl group during orthogonal organic synthesis in the presence of other esters and sensitive protecting groups. By applying the new magnesium turnings/acetic acid deprotection method, phenacyl group can be more easily combined with other protecting groups that are not compatible with the zinc/acetic acid method.

Phosphate linked oligomers

Novel ethylene glycol compounds bearing various functional groups are used to prepare oligomeric structures. The ethylene glycol monomers can be joined via standard phosphate linkages including phosphorothioate, phosphodiester, and phosphoramidate linkages. Useful functional groups include nucleobases as well as polar groups, hydrophobic groups, ionic groups, aromatic groups and/or groups that participate in hydrogen-bonding.

Target-selective protocols based on mimics

A method to potentiate the effect of a chemotherapeutic agent in a tumor cell, which method comprises administering to said tumor cell, along with said chemotherapeutic agent, a potentiating amount of a compound of the formula: STR1 or an amide, ester or hybrid amide/ester thereof, wherein X is a hydrocarbon radical optionally substituted on any aromatic moiety contained therein; Y--CO is γ-Glu or β-Asp and AAC is an amino acid, preferably glycine, phenylglycine, β-alanine, alanine or phenylalanine is disclosed. Similar compounds can also be used to selectively exert cytotoxicity versus target cells as compared to nontarget cells and also to elevate the production of GM progenitors in bone marrow of mammalian subjects.
