Simple and efficient N-acylation reactions of chiral oxazolidinone auxiliaries
Ager, David J.,Allen, David R.,Schaad, David R.
, p. 1283 - 1285 (1996)
A simplified procedure for the N-acylation of oxazolidin-2-one chiral auxiliaries has been developed. The acylations occur at room temperature in the presence of triethylamine and catalytic quantities of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine, thereby eliminating the necessity for a strong base such as butyllithium. Acylations with both symmetrical and mixed anhydrides, as well as acid chlorides, occur with a wide variety of oxazolidinone auxiliaries.
Substrate structure-activity relationships guide rational engineering of modular polyketide synthase ketoreductases
Bailey, Constance B.,Pasman, Marjolein E.,Keatinge-Clay, Adrian T.

Modular polyketide synthase ketoreductases can set two chiral centers through a single reduction. To probe the basis of stereocontrol, a structure-activity relationship study was performed with three α-methyl, β-ketothioester substrates and four ketoreductases. Since interactions with the β-ketoacyl moiety were found to be most critical, residues implicated in contacting this moiety were mutated. Two mutations were sufficient to completely reverse the stereoselectivity of the model ketoreductase EryKR1, converting it from an enzyme that generates (2S,3R)-products into one that yields (2S,3S)-products.
A Synthesis Strategy for the Production of a Macrolactone of Gulmirecin A via a Ni(0)-Mediated Reductive Cyclization Reaction
Ichikawa, Satoshi,Katsuyama, Akira,Kitahata, Shun
, (2020)
A synthesis strategy for the production of a key synthetic intermediate of gulmirecin A was described. The key reaction in the preparation of the 12-membered macrolactone is the Ni(0)-mediated reductive cyclization reaction of ynal using an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand and silane reductant. In addition, the α-selective glycosylation reaction of the macrolactone was performed to demonstrate the synthesis of gulmirecin and disciformycin precursors.

Dow, Mark,Marchetti, Francesco,Abrahams, Katherine A.,Vaz, Luis,Besra, Gurdyal S.,Warriner, Stuart,Nelson, Adam
, p. 7207 - 7211 (2017)
A modular synthetic approach was developed in which variation of the triplets of building blocks used enabled systematic variation of the macrocyclic scaffolds prepared. The approach was demonstrated in the synthesis of 17 diverse natural product-like macrocyclic scaffolds of varied (12–20-membered) ring size. The biological relevance of the chemical space explored was demonstrated through the discovery of a series of macrocycles with significant antimycobacterial activity.

Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and catalytic dimethylaminopyridine were successfully used in the coupling of carboxylic acids with oxazolidinones and thiazolidinethiones. The acylated products were obtained in good yields.

Novel chiral selectors based on 3,5-dimethyl phenylcarbamoylated β-cyclodextrin connecting quinine (QN) or quinidine (QD) moiety were synthesized and immobilized on silica gel. Their chromatographic performances were investigated by comparing to the 3,5-dimethyl phenylcarbamoylated β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) chiral stationary phase (CSP) and 9-O-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-QN-based CSP (QN-AX). Fmoc-protected amino acids, chiral drug cloprostenol (which has been successfully employed in veterinary medicine), and neutral chiral analytes were evaluated on CSPs, and the results showed that the novel CSPs characterized as both enantioseparation capabilities of CD-based CSP and QN/QD-based CSPs have broader application range than β-CD-based CSP or QN/QD-based CSPs. It was found that QN/QD moieties play a dominant role in the overall enantioseparation process of Fmoc-amino acids accompanied by the synergistic effect of β-CD moiety, which lead to the different enantioseparation of β-CD-QN-based CSP and β-CD-QD-based CSP. Furthermore, new CSPs retain extraordinary enantioseparation of cyclodextrin-based CSP for some neutral analytes on normal phase and even exhibit better enantioseparation than the corresponding β-CD-based CSP for certain samples.
The perils of rational design-unexpected irreversible elimination of fluoride from 3-fluoro-2-methylacyl-CoA esters catalysed by α-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR; P504S)

α-Methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR; P504S) catalyses 'racemization' of 2-methylacyl-CoAs, the activation of R-ibuprofen and is a promising cancer drug target. Human recombinant AMACR 1A catalyses elimination of 3-fluoro-2-methyldecanoyl-CoAs to give E-2-methyldec-2-enoyl-CoA and fluoride anion, a previously unknown reaction. 'Racemization' of 2-methyldec-3-enoyl-CoAs was also catalysed, without double bond migration. This journal is
Stapled Peptides with γ-Methylated Hydrocarbon Chains for the Estrogen Receptor/Coactivator Interaction

"Stapled" peptides are typically designed to replace two non-interacting residues with a constraining, olefinic staple. To mimic interacting leucine and isoleucine residues, we have created new amino acids that incorporate a methyl group in the γ-position of the stapling amino acid S5. We have incorporated them into a sequence derived from steroid receptor coactivator2, which interacts with estrogen receptorα. The best peptide (IC50=89nm) replaces isoleucine689 with an S-γ-methyl stapled amino acid, and has significantly higher affinity than unsubstituted peptides (390 and 760nm). Through X-ray crystallography and molecular dynamics studies, we show that the conformation taken up by the S-γ-methyl peptide minimizes the syn-pentane interactions between the α- and γ-methyl groups.

Herein, we report an efficient route for the asymmetric synthesis of β2-aminoxy acids as well as experimental and theoretical studies of conformations of peptides composed of β2-aminoxy acids. The nine-membered-ring intramolecular hydrogen bonds, namely, β N-O turns, are generated between adjacent residues in those peptides, in accordance with our computational results. The presence of two consecutive homochiral β N-O turns leads to the formation of β N-O helical structures in solution, although both helical (composed of two β N-O turns of the same handedness) and reverse-turn (composed of two β N-O turns with opposite handedness) structures are of similar stability, as suggested by theoretical studies. Nevertheless, two slightly different conformations, with the same handedness, of β2-aminoxy monomers have been observed in the solid state and in solution according to our X-ray and 2D NOESY studies.

Identifying the targets of bioactive small molecules is a challenging endeavor for which no general solution currently exists. Classical affinity purification experiments suffer from the need to functionalise a bioactive compound and link it to a solid support, which may interfere with target binding. A modern mass spectrometry-based proteomics technique that has partially circumvented this problem is thermal proteome profiling (TPP), which determines the effect of an unmodified small molecule on the thermal stability of the whole proteome simultaneously. Here, we use TPP to identify the mode-of-action of a newly-discovered autophagy inhibitor based on oxazolidinones often employed as chiral auxiliaries. Surprisingly, a significant portion of all ribosomal proteins were found to be destabilized by the inhibitor, highlighting the utility of this technology for determining a challenging mode-of-action.
