A series of novel HIV-1 protease inhibitors has been designed and synthesized, which contained morpholine derivatives as the P2 ligands and hydrophobic cyclopropyl as the P1′ ligand at the meantime in this study, with the aim of improving the interactions between the active sites of HIV-1 protease and the inhibitors. Twenty-eight compounds were synthesized and assessed, among which inhibitors m18 and m1 exhibited excellent inhibitory effect on the activity of HIV-1 protease with IC50 value of 47 nM and 53 nM, respectively. The molecular modeling of m1 revealed possible hydrogen bondings or van der Waals between the inhibitor and the protease, worthy of in-depth study.
Nitrogen-containing cyclic compounds as iminium ion sources for selected reaction monitoring detection of derivatized analytes

Liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry is one of the most sensitive tools for determination of trace amounts of analytes in metabolomics and proteomics. The highest sensitivity is achieved in selected reaction monitoring detection, which involves fragmentation of the molecular ion between two levels of mass selection. However, fragmentation of some compounds is complicated. Detection sensitivity of such analytes may be increased by derivatizing them with a specific moiety fragmentation of which results in product ion of high abundance. In this work, we reveal the influence of iminium ions' structures on their stability by comparing six nitrogen-containing cyclic compounds as derivatization reagents for tandem mass spectrometric analysis of amino group-containing analyte. Commercially available starting materials (piperidine, 2,6-dimethylpiperidine, 1-methylpiperazine, morpholine, pyrrolidine and 1-cyanomethyl-3-methylimidazolium ionic liquid) were used for the synthesis of corresponding carboxylic acids which were further used for derivatization of the model analyte tryptamine. Liquid chromatographic–mass spectrometric analysis of differently derivatized tryptamine was performed for the evaluation of release and stability of corresponding iminium ions under collision-induced dissociation conditions. As a result, morpholine moiety was shown being the most promising iminium ion source among tested compounds. Possible sub-fragmentation pathways of investigated iminium ions were discussed, and the structures of secondary product ions were proposed.

Continuous processing enables the use of non-standard reaction conditions such as high temperatures and pressures while in the liquid phase. This expands the chemist's toolbox and can enable previously unthinkable chemistry to proceed with ease. For a series of amphoteric amino acid derivatives, we have demonstrated the ability to hydrolyze the tert-butyl ester functionality in protic solvent systems. Using a continuous plug flow reactor at 120–240 °C and 15–40 min reaction times, no pH modification or additional reagents are needed to achieve the desired transformation. The method was then expanded to encompass a variety of more challenging substrates to test selectivity and racemization potential. The acid products were generally isolated as crystalline solids by simple solvent exchange after the deprotection reaction in good to high yield and purity.
