- Fluorous Mixture Synthesis of Tripeptides and Pentapeptides Using- a Fluorous-Fmoc Protection Strategy
-
A liquid-phase split-type synthesis of various tripeptides and pentapeptides was conducted using a fluorous-Fmoc protection strategy. Fluorous-Fmoc reagents were effectively used as both the protecting group for the amino function and the encoding tag for the amino acid structure. Several of the synthetic peptides prepared showed high activities in an ACE inhibitory assay.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel FK228 analogues as potential isoform selective HDAC inhibitors
-
Novel C4- and C7-modified FK228 analogues were efficiently synthesized in a highly convergent and unified manner. This synthesis features the amide condensation of glycine-d-cysteine-containing segments with d-valine-containing segments for the direct assembly of the corresponding seco-acids, which are key precursors of macrolactones. The HDAC inhibition assay and cell-growth inhibition analysis of the synthesized analogues revealed novel aspects of their structure-activity relationship. This study demonstrated that simple modification at the C4 and C7 side chains in FK228 is effective for improving both HDAC inhibitory activity and isoform selectivity; moreover, potent and highly isoform-selective class I HDAC1 inhibitors were identified.

- Hydroxymethyl Salicylaldehyde Auxiliary for a Glycine-Dependent Amide-Forming Ligation
-
A new amide-forming ligation that requires a glycine or a primary amine at the linkage site is described herein. The distinguishing feature of this ligation is its reliance on an O-hydroxymethyl salicylaldehyde ester at the C-terminus which allows, via an N,O-acetal intermediate, the formation of a native peptide bond.

- Iodine-Mediated Oxidative Coupling of Hydroxamic Acids with Amines towards a New Peptide-Bond Formation
-
An efficient and straightforward approach for the coupling of Nα-protected hydroxamic acids with an amino component in the presence of iodine is delineated. The reaction is mediated by the formation of unstable but reactive acyl nitroso intermediates. The peptide hydroxamic acids were found to be useful substrates in coupling reactions.

- Ethyl 2-cyano-2-(2-nitrobenzenesulfonyloxyimino)acetate (o -NosylOXY): A recyclable coupling reagent for racemization-free synthesis of peptide, amide, hydroxamate, and ester
-
Ubiquitousness of amide and ester functionality makes coupling reactions extremely important. Although numerous coupling reagents are available, methods of preparation of the common and efficient reagents are cumbersome. Those reagents generate a substantial amount of chemical waste and lack recyclability. Ethyl 2-cyano-2-(2-nitrobenzenesulfonyloxyimino)acetate (o-NosylOXY), the first member of a new generation of coupling reagents, produces byproducts that can be easily recovered and reused for the synthesis of the same reagent, making the method more environmentally friendly and cost-effective. The synthesis of amides, hydroxamates, peptides, and esters using this reagent is described. The synthesis of the difficult sequences, for example, the islet amyloid polypeptide (22-27) fragment (with a C-terminal Gly, H-Asn-Phe-Gly-Ala-Ile-Leu-Gly-NH 2) and acyl carrier protein (65-74) fragment (H-Val-Gln-Ala-Ala-Ile- Asp-Tyr-Ile-Asn-Gly-OH), following the solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) protocol and Amyloid β (39-42) peptide (Boc-Val-Val-IIe-Ala-OMe), following solution-phase strategy is demonstrated. Remarkable improvement is noticed with respect to reaction time, yield, and retention of stereochemistry. A mechanistic investigation and recyclability are also described.

- Characterization of Nα-Fmoc-protected dipeptide isomers by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MSn): Effect of protecting group on fragmentation of dipeptides
-
A series of positional isomeric pairs of Fmoc-protected dipeptides, Fmoc-Gly-Xxx-OY/Fmoc-Xxx-Gly-OY (Xxx = Ala, Val, Leu, Phe) and Fmoc-Ala-Xxx-OY/Fmoc-Xxx-Ala-OY (Xxx = Leu, Phe) (Fmoc = [(9-fluorenylmethyl) oxy]carbonyl) and Y = CH3/H), have been characterized and differentiated by both positive and negative ion electrospray ionization ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-IT-MSn). In contrast to the behavior of reported unprotected dipeptide isomers which mainly produce y 1+ and/or a1+ ions, the protonated Fmoc-Xxx-Gly-OY, Fmoc-Ala-Xxx-OY and Fmoc-Xxx-Ala-OY yield significant b 1+ ions. These ions are formed, presumably with stable protonated aziridinone structures. However, the peptides with Gly- at the N-terminus do not form b1+ ions. The [M + H]+ ions of all the peptides undergo a McLafferty-type rearrangement followed by loss of CO2 to form [M + H-Fmoc + H]+. The MS3 collision-induced dissociation (CID) of these ions helps distinguish the pairs of isomeric dipeptides studied in this work. Further, negative ion MS 3 CID has also been found to be useful for differentiating these isomeric peptide acids. The MS3 of [M-H-Fmoc + H]- of isomeric peptide acids produce c1-, z1 - and y1- ions. Thus the present study of Fmoc-protected peptides provides additional information on mass spectral characterization of the dipeptides and distinguishes the positional isomers. Copyright
