Synthesis of enantiomerically pure (R)-and (S)-1-benzoyloxypropane-2,3-diol and revision of the stereochemical outcome of the Candida antarctica lipase-catalyzed benzoylation of glycerol

, p. 658 - 661 (2011)
Enantiomerically pure (R)- and (S)-1-benzoyloxypropane-2,3-diol have been prepared from (S)-(+)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol and used as reference compounds to correct the reported stereochemical outcome of the Candida antarctica lipase (CAL)-cat

Daptomycin (dap) is an important antibiotic that interacts with the bacterial membrane lipid phosphatidylglycerol (PG) in a calcium-dependent manner. The enantiomer of dap (ent-dap) was synthesized and was found to be 85-fold less active than dap against

In aqueous conditions, amphiphilic bioactive molecules are able to form self-assembled colloidal structures modifying their biological activity. This behavior is generally neglected in preclinical studies, despite its impact on pharmacological development. In this regard, a significative example is represented by a new class of amphiphilic marine-inspired vaccine adjuvants, collectively named Sulfavants, based on the β-sulfoquinovosyl-diacylglyceride skeleton. The family includes the lead product Sulfavant A (1) and two epimers, Sulfavant R (2) and Sulfavant S (3), differing only for the stereochemistry at C-2 of glycerol. The three compounds showed a significant difference in immunological potency, presumably correlated with change of the aggregates in water. Here, a new synthesis of diastereopure 3 was achieved, and the study of the immunomodulatory behavior of mixtures of 2/3 proved that the bizarre in vitro response to 1–3 effectively depends on the supramolecular aggregation states, likely affecting the bioavailability of agonists that can effectively interact with the cellular targets. The evidence obtained with the mixture of pure Sulfavant R (2) and Sulfavant S (3) proves, for the first time, that supramolecular organization of a mixture of active epimers in aqueous solution can bias evaluation of their biological and pharmacological potential.
MACROCYCLIC CHELATORS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF

Page/Page column 99; 102; 139; 140, (2020/11/30)
Macrocyclic chelators (I) for chelation of alpha-emitting radiometal ions, such as actinium-225 are provided. Also provided are radiometal complexes containing an alpha-emitting radiometal ion bound to the macrocyclic chelator via coordinate bonding, and radioimmunoconjugates containing the radiometal complexes covalently linked to a targeting ligand, such as an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof. The radioimmunoconjugates can be produced by click chemistry reactions. Methods of using the radiocomplexes and radioimmunoconjugates for selectively targeting neoplastic cells for radiotherapy and for treating neoplastic diseases and disorders are also described.
Synthesis of enantiopure ABC-type triacylglycerols
Gudmundsson, Haraldur G.,Linderborg, Kaisa M.,Kallio, Heikki,Yang, Baoru,Haraldsson, Gudmundur G.
, (2019/12/26)
The synthesis of twelve enantiopure structured triacylglycerols (TAGs) of the ABC type possessing three different fatty acids is described by a six-step chemoenzymatic approach starting from (S)-solketal. Eight of the TAGs possess two different saturated fatty acyl groups located in the sn-1 and sn-2 positions with an unsaturated fatty acyl group in the remaining sn-3 position of the glycerol skeleton, whereas the remaining four possess two different saturated acyl groups in the terminal sn-1 and sn-3 positions with an unsaturated acyl group in the sn-2 position. The former group was synthesised by a six-step chemoenzymatic route involving a highly regioselective immobilised Candida antarctica lipase. The second group was prepared by a similar six-step approach, that required two separate lipase steps. Such enantiopure TAGs are strongly demanded as standards for enantiospecific analysis of intact TAGs in fats and oils.

The stereospecific structure of triacylglycerols (TAGs) affects the bioavailability of fatty acids. Lack of enantiopure reference compounds and effective enantiospecific methods have hindered the stereospecific analysis of individual TAGs. Twelve novel enantiostructured AAB-type TAGs were synthesized containing one of the three n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid: α-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in sn-1 or sn-3 position. These compounds formed six enantiomer pairs, which were separated with recycling high-performance liquid chromatography using chiral columns and UV detection. The chromatographic retention behavior of the enantiomers and the stereospecific elution order were studied. The enantiomer with an n-3 PUFA in the sn-1 position eluted faster than the enantiomer with the n-3 PUFA in the sn-3 position, regardless of the carbon chain length and number of double bonds of the PUFA. TAG enantiomers containing DHA exhibited highly different retention on the chiral column and were separated after the first column, whereas recycling was needed to separate the enantiomer pairs containing ALA or EPA. The system using two identical columns and one mobile phase, without sample derivatization, proved to be very effective also for peak purity assessment, confirming the enantiopurity of the synthesized structured TAGs being higher than 98 percent (96 percent ee).

The synthesis of a library of bacterial phosphoglycolipid, PGL-1, is described. Key features of the synthesis include regioselective esterification of the primary alcohol of the diacylglycerol moiety and an H-phosphonate method to install the phosphate in PGL-1 in comparison with earlier reported procedures. A representative set of PGL-1 analogues was prepared and evaluated for their biological activities. Results showed that the immunological activity of PGL-1 is dependent on the chain lengths of the fatty acids.
