Novel thiazole derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) inhibitors. Although our previous compound 1 showed potent VAP-1 inhibitory activity, the activity differed between humans and rats. This issue was overcome by a hybrid design using human VAP-1 specific inhibitor 2, which was found by high-throughput screening (HTS), a docking study of a human VAP-1 homology model, and an analysis of sequence information for humans and rats. As a result, we identified compound 35c, which showed strong VAP-1 inhibitory activity (human IC50 of 20 nM; rat IC50 of 72 nM) and significant inhibitory effects in the ex vivo test.

The asymmetric bioreduction of ethyl 3-halo-2-oxo-4-phenylbutanoate was studied for several microorganisms and especially for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The highest chemical yield (90%), de (70%) and ee (96-99%) were obtained with S. cerevisiae immobilized in calcium alginate beads with double gel layers, and reaction conditions were optimized by changing matrix of immobilization, concentration of substrate, and feeding with glucose as electron donor. The entrapment of cells with double gel layers was fundamental to achieve high enantio- and diastereoselectivity.
A highly enantioselective chemoenzymatic synthesis of syn-3-amino-2-hydroxy esters: Key intermediates for taxol side chain and phenylnorstatine

Starting from the bromination of α-ketoesters to obtain 3-bromo-2-oxoalkanoates and bioreduction with Saccharomyces cerevisiae entrapped in calcium alginate pellets with double gel layers, syn-(2R,3S)-β-bromo- α-hydroxy esters were obtained regioselectively in high yields and high ee. These chiral bromohydrins were cyclized to epoxides that were transformed into oxazolidines and finally opened by acidic hydrolysis to give syn-(2S,3S)-β-amino-α-hydroxy esters in high overall yields and high ee. The enantiomeric excesses of all the intermediates were maintained during the reaction sequence.
