Biocatalytic racemization of a range of aliphatic, (aryl)aliphatic, and aromatic α-hydroxycarboxylic acids was accomplished by using whole resting cells of a range of Lactobacillus spp. The mild (physiological) reaction conditions ensured an essentially "clean" isomerization in the absence of side reactions, such as elimination or decomposition. Whereas straight-chain aliphatic 2-hydroxy-carboxylic acids were racemized with excellent rates (up to 85% relative to lactate), steric hindrance was observed for branched-chain analogues. Good rates were observed for aryl-alkyl derivatives, such as 3-phenyllactic acid (up to 59%) and 4-phenyl-2-hydroxybutanoic acid (up to 47%). In addition, also mandelate and its o-chloro analogue were accepted at a fair rate (45%). This biocatalytic racemization represents an important tool for the deracemization of a number of pharmaceutically important building blocks.

Biocatalytic racemisation of aliphatic, aryl-aliphatic and aromatic α-hydroxycarboxylic acids was accomplished using whole resting cells of Lactobacillus paracasei DSM 20207; the mild (physiological) reaction conditions ensured an essentially 'clean' isomerization in the absence of side reactions, such as elimination or decomposition.

Compounds and methods are provided for modulating in vivo and in vivo processes mediated by selectin biniding. More specifically, selectin modulators and their use are described, wherein the selectin modulators that modulate (e.g. inhibit or enhance) a selectin-mediated function comprise particular glycomimetics linked to a member of a class of compounds termed BASAs (Benzyl Amino Sulfonic Acids).

(S)-Cyclohexyl lactic acid is a component of the selective E-selectin inhibitor 2 ((S)-cHexLact-2-0-(3-Galβ(1→3)ddGlc-(4→1)αFuc). We describe the evaluation of various synthetic routes to this building block: (A) diazotation of phenylalanine followed by phenyl ring hydrogenation; (B) phenyl ring hydrogenation of phenyl alanine followed by diazotation; (C) acidic hydrolysis of the cyanohydrin derived from phenylacetaldehyde, enantiomeric resolution of the resulting, racemic phenyl lactic acid via diasteromeric salt formation and phenyl ring hydrogenation; (D) enantioselective dihydroxylation of a cinnamate ester, followed by hydrogenation of the benzylic hydroxy group and the aromatic nucleus; (E) enantioselective biocatalytic reduction of phenylpyruvic acid, followed by phenyl ring hydrogenation. The development of (2R)-2-0-(4-nitrophenyl)sulfonyl-cyclohexyl lactic acid p-bromobenzylester 21 as a buidling block with improved crystallinity and stability is also described.

An early step of the inflammatory response - the rolling of leukocytes on activated endothelial cells - is mediated by selectin/carbohydrate interactions. The tetrasaccharide sialyl Lewisx (sLex) 1 is a ligand for E-, P-, and L-selectin and, therefore, serves as a lead structure to develop analogues which allow the control of acute and chronic inflammation. Here we describe the efficient synthesis (10 linear steps) of the potent sLex mimetic 2. Compared to sLex, compound 2 showed a 30-fold improved affinity in a static, cell-free E-selectin-ligand binding assay (IC50 = 36 μM). These data were confirmed by a marked inhibition in an in vitro cell-cell rolling assay which simulates in vivo conditions (IC50 ca. 40 μM). The assays are predictive for the in vivo efficacy of test compounds as indicated by a marked inhibitory effect of 2 in a thioglycollate induced peritonitis model of acute inflammation in mice (ED50 ca. 15 mg/kg).
