High-Precision Position-Specific Isotope Analysis of 13C/ 12C in Leucine and Methionine Analogues
Sacks, Gavin L.,Brenna, J. Thomas
, p. 5495 - 5503 (2003)
We report an automated method for high-precision position-specific isotope analysis (PSIA) of carbon in amino acid analogues. Carbon isotope ratios are measured for gas-phase pyrolysis fragments from multiple sources of 3-methylthiopropylamine (3MTP) and isoamylamine (IAA), the decarboxylated analogues of methionine and leucine, using a home-built gas chromatography (GC)-pyrolysis-GC preparation system coupled to a combustion-isotope ratio mass spectrometry system. Over a temperature range of 620-900 °C, the characteristic pyrolysis products for 3MTP were CH4, C 2H6, HCN, and CH3CN and for IAA products were propylene, isobutylene, HCN, and CH3CN. Fragment origin was confirmed by 13C-labeling, and fragments used for isotope analysis were generated from unique moieties with >95% structural fidelity. Isotope ratios for the fragments were determined with an average precision of SD(δ13C) 13C) 13C values of fragments were invariant over a range of pyrolysis temperatures. The Δδ13C of complementary fragments in IAA was within 0.8‰ of the Δδ13C of the parent compounds, indicating that pyrolysis-induced isotopic fractionation is effectively taken into account with this calibration procedure. Using Δδ 13C values of fragments, Δδ13C values were determined for all four carbon positions of 3MTP and for C1, C2, and the propyl moiety of IAA, either directly or indirectly by mass balance. Large variations in position-specific isotope ratios were observed in samples from different commercial sources. Most dramatically, two 3MTP sources differed by 16.30‰ at C1, 48.33‰ at C2, 0.37‰ at C3, and 5.36‰ at C(methyl). These PSIA techniques are suitable for studying subtle changes in intramolecular isotope ratios due to natural processes.

Six bioactive compounds were isolated from the seeds extract of Piper nigrum Linn. following a larvicidal activity guided isolation against 4th instar larvae of Aedes aegypti L., a Dengue vector mosquito and a carrier of yellow fever. Their structures were elucidated using spectroscopic methods including HR-EI-MS, FAB-MS, 1H and 13C NMR (Broad Bond Decoupled, & DEPT), and 2D-NMR techniques (1H-1H COSY, NOESY, HMQC, HMBC, & 2D-J-resolved). These include three new constituents namely pipilyasine (1), pipzubedine (2) and pipyaqubine (3), and three known constituents pellitorine (4), pipericine (5) and piperine (6). The larvicidal activity was determined by WHO method.

The invention discloses a method for preparing primary amine by catalyzing reductive amination of aldehyde ketone compounds. The method comprises the following steps: 1) mixing nickel nitrate hexahydrate, citric acid and an organic solvent, carrying out heating and stirring until a colloidal material is obtained, drying the colloidal material, roasting the colloidal material in a protective atmosphere, pickling, washing and drying a roasted product, and performing a partial oxidation reaction on a dried product in an oxygen-nitrogen mixed atmosphere to obtain a catalyst for a reductive amination reaction; and 2) mixing aldehyde or ketone compounds, a methanol solution of ammonia and the reductive amination reaction catalyst, introducing hydrogen, and carrying out a reductive amination reaction. The method has the advantages of high primary amine yield, high selectivity, wide aldehyde ketone substrate range, short reaction time, mild reaction conditions, low cost, greenness, economicalperformance and the like; the used reductive amination reaction catalyst can be recycled more than 10 times, and the catalytic activity of the catalyst is not obviously changed in gram-level reactions; and the method is suitable for large-scale application.

ALDH2, a key enzyme in the alcohol metabolism process, detoxifies several kinds of toxic small molecular aldehydes, which induce severe organ damages. The development of novel Alda-1 type ALDH2 activators was mostly relied on HTS but not rational design so far. To clarify the structure–activity relationship (SAR) of the skeleton of Alda-1 analogs by synthesis of the least number of analogs, we prepared 31 Alda-1 analogs and 3 isoflavone derivatives and evaluated for their ALDH2-activating activity. Among these, the ALDH2-activating activity of mono-halogen-substituted (Cl and Br) N-piperonylbenzamides 3b and 3 k, and non-aromatic amides 8a-8c, were 1.5–2.1 folds higher than that of Alda-1 at 20 μM. The relationship between binding affinity in computer aided molecular docking model and the ALDH2-activating activity assays were clarified as follows: for Alda-1 analogs, with the formation of halogen bonds, the enzyme-activating activity was found to follow a specific regression curve within the range between ?5 kcal/mol and ?4 kcal/mol. For isoflavone derivatives, the basic moiety on the B ring enhance the activating activity. These results provide a new direction of utilizing computer-aided modeling to design novel ALDH2 agonists in the future.

The primary objective of many researchers in chemical synthesis is the development of recyclable and easily accessible catalysts. These catalysts should preferably be made from Earth-abundant metals and have the ability to be utilised in the synthesis of pharmaceutically important compounds. Amines are classified as privileged compounds, and are used extensively in the fine and bulk chemical industries, as well as in pharmaceutical and materials research. In many laboratories and in industry, transition metal catalysed reductive amination of carbonyl compounds is performed using predominantly ammonia and H2. However, these reactions usually require precious metal-based catalysts or RANEY nickel, and require harsh reaction conditions and yield low selectivity for the desired products. Herein, we describe a simple and environmentally friendly method for the preparation of thin graphene spheres that encapsulate uniform Ni/NiO nanoalloy catalysts (Ni/NiO?C) using nickel citrate as the precursor. The resulting catalysts are stable and reusable and were successfully used for the synthesis of primary, secondary, tertiary, and N-methylamines (more than 62 examples). The reaction couples easily accessible carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) with ammonia, amines, and H2 under very mild industrially viable and scalable conditions (80 °C and 1 MPa H2 pressure, 4 h), offering cost-effective access to numerous functionalized, structurally diverse linear and branched benzylic, heterocyclic, and aliphatic amines including drugs and steroid derivatives. We have also demonstrated the scale-up of the heterogeneous amination protocol to gram-scale synthesis. Furthermore, the catalyst can be immobilized on a magnetic stirring bar and be conveniently recycled up to five times without any significant loss of catalytic activity and selectivity for the product.

Amino acids obtained by fermentation or recovered from protein waste hydrolysates represent an excellent renewable resource for the production of bio-based chemicals. In an attempt to recycle both carbon and nitrogen, we report here on a chemocatalytic, metal-free approach for decarboxylation of amino acids, thereby providing a direct access to primary amines. In the presence of a carbonyl compound the amino acid is temporarily trapped into a Schiff base, from which the elimination of CO2 may proceed more easily. After evaluating different types of aldehydes and ketones on their activity at low catalyst loadings (≤5 mol%), isophorone was identified as powerful organocatalyst under mild conditions. After optimisation many amino acids with a neutral side chain were converted in 28–99 % yield in 2-propanol at 150 °C. When the reaction is performed in DMF, the amine is susceptible to N-formylation. This consecutive reaction is catalysed by the acidity of the amino acid reactant itself. In this way, many amino acids were efficiently transformed to the corresponding formamides in a one-pot catalytic system.

The development of base metal catalysts for the synthesis of pharmaceutically relevant compounds remains an important goal of chemical research. Here, we report that cobalt nanoparticles encapsulated by a graphitic shell are broadly effective reductive amination catalysts. Their convenient and practical preparation entailed template assembly of cobaltdiamine- dicarboxylic acid metal organic frameworks on carbon and subsequent pyrolysis under inert atmosphere.The resulting stable and reusable catalysts were active for synthesis of primary, secondary, tertiary, and N-methylamines (more than 140 examples).The reaction couples easily accessible carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) with ammonia, amines, or nitro compounds, and molecular hydrogen under industrially viable and scalable conditions, offering cost-effective access to numerous amines, amino acid derivatives, and more complex drug targets.

Amines constitute the major targets for the production of a plethora of chemical compounds that have applications in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical and bulk chemical industries. However, the asymmetric synthesis of α-chiral amines with elevated catalytic efficiency and atom economy is still a very challenging synthetic problem. Here, we investigated the biocatalytic reductive amination of carbonyl compounds employing a rising class of enzymes for amine synthesis: amine dehydrogenases (AmDHs). The three AmDHs from this study-operating in tandem with a formate dehydrogenase from Candida boidinii (Cb-FDH) for the recycling of the nicotinamide coenzyme-performed the efficient amination of a range of diverse aromatic and aliphatic ketones and aldehydes with up to quantitative conversion and elevated turnover numbers (TONs). Moreover, the reductive amination of prochiral ketones proceeded with perfect stereoselectivity, always affording the (R)-configured amines with more than 99% enantiomeric excess. The most suitable amine dehydrogenase, the optimised catalyst loading and the required reaction time were determined for each substrate. The biocatalytic reductive amination with this dual-enzyme system (AmDH-Cb-FDH) possesses elevated atom efficiency as it utilizes the ammonium formate buffer as the source of both nitrogen and reducing equivalents. Inorganic carbonate is the sole by-product.

A general procedure for the catalytic hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines by using a non-noble metal-based system is presented. Co(acac)3 in combination with tris[2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethyl]phosphine efficiently catalyzes the selective hydrogenation of a wide range of (hetero)aromatic and aliphatic nitriles to give the corresponding amines.
