The 2,2-dimethyl-2-(ortho-nitrophenyl)acetyl (DMNPA) group was introduced to synthetic carbohydrate chemistry as a protecting group (PG) for the first time. Benefiting from a unique chemical structure and novel deprotection conditions, the DMNPA group can be cleaved rapidly and mutually orthogonal to other PGs. Orchestrated application of the DMNPA group with other PGs led to the highly efficient synthesis of the glycan of thornasterside A.
Peptide conjugates of 4-aminocyclophosphamide as prodrugs of phosphoramide mustard for selective activation by prostate-specific antigen (PSA)

In our continued effort to develop prodrugs of phosphoramide mustard, conjugates of 4-aminocyclophosphamide (4-NH2-CPA) with three PSA-specific peptides were synthesized and evaluated as substrates of PSA. These include conjugates of cis-(2R,4R)-4-NH2-CPA with a tetrapeptide Succinyl-Ser-Lys-Leu-Gln-OH, a hexapeptide Succinyl-His-Ser-Ser-Lys-Leu-Gln-OH, and a pentapeptide Glutaryl-Hyp-Ala-Ser-Chg-Gln-OH. These conjugates were cleaved by PSA efficiently and exclusively after the expected glutamine residue to release 4-NH2-CPA, the activated prodrug form of phosphoramide mustard. The cleavage was most efficient for the pentapeptide conjugate 3 (Glutaryl-Hyp-Ala-Ser-Chg-Gln-NH-CPA), which showed a half-life of 55 min with PSA, followed by the hexapeptide conjugate 2 (Succinyl-His-Ser-Ser-Lys-Leu-Gln- NH-CPA) and the tertrapeptide conjugate 1 (Succinyl-Ser-Lys-Leu-Gln-NH-CPA) with half-lives of 6.5 and 12 h, respectively. These results indicate a potential of the conjugate 3 as an anticancer prodrug of phosphoramide mustard for selective PSA activation.
N-(2,2-Dimethyl-2-(2-nitrophenyl)acetyl)-4-aminocyclophosphamide as a potential bioreductively activated prodrug of phosphoramide mustard

body text, p. 4059 - 4063 (2009/04/06)
N-(2,2-Dimethyl-2-(2-nitrophenyl)acetyl)-4-aminocyclophosphamide isomers (DMNA-NH-CPA, 4) were synthesized stereospecifically from Boc-l-Hse(OBn)-OH and the degradation of the corresponding reduced amine 5a was investigated by UV/vis spectroscopy and LC/M
Relationships between Structure and Kinetics of Cyclization of 2-Aminoaryl Amides: Potential Prodrugs of Cyclization-Activated Aromatic Mustards
Atwell, Graham J.,Sykes, Bridget M.,O'Connor, Charmian J.,Denny, William A.
, p. 371 - 380 (2007/10/02)
2-Nitroaryl amides of general structure I are proposed as bioreducible prodrugs, capable of releasing cytotoxic aminoaniline mustards V on bioactivation by spontaneous cyclization of the resulting 2-aminoaryl amides II via a tetrahedral intermediate, III.
