The first total synthesis of the cyclic depsipeptide natural product teixobactin is described. Synthesis was achieved by solid-phase peptide synthesis, incorporating the unusual l-allo-enduracididine as a suitably protected synthetic cassette and employing a key on-resin esterification and solution-phase macrolactamization. The synthetic natural product was shown to possess potent antibacterial activity against a range of Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria, including a virulent strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
Acylguanidines as bioisosteres of guanidines: NG-acylated imidazolylpropylguanidines, a new class of histamine h2 receptor agonists

N1-Aryl(heteroaryl)alkyl-N2-[3-(1H-imidazol-4-yl) propyl]guanidines are potent histamine H2-receptor (H2R) agonists, but their applicability is compromised by the lack of oral bioavailability and CNS penetration. To improve pharmacokinetics, we introduced carbonyl instead of methylene adjacent to the guanidine moiety, decreasing the basicity of the novel H2R agonists by 4-5 orders of magnitude. Some acylguanidines with one phenyl ring were even more potent than their diaryl analogues. As demonstrated by HPLC-MS, the acylguanidines (bioisosteres of the alkylguanidines) were absorbed from the gut of mice and detected in brain. In GTPase assays using recombinant receptors, acylguanidines were more potent at the guinea pig than at the human H2R. At the hH1R and hH3R, the compounds were weak to moderate antagonists or partial agonists. Moreover, potent partial hH4R agonists were identified. Receptor subtype selectivity depends on the imidazolylpropylguanidine moiety (privileged structure), opening an avenue to distinct pharmacological tools including potent H4R agonists.

New guanidinylation reagents are reported. These reagents consist of N,N',N''-tri-Boc-guanidine (1) and N,N',N''-tri-Cbz-guanidine (2), which allow for the facile conversion of alcohols to substituted guanidines. A series of arginine analogues were synthesized via condensation of a primary or secondary alcohol with the guanidinylation reagents 1 or 2, under Mitsunobu conditions, to produce protected alkylated guanidines. In addition, an extended study of the previously reported reagents N,N'-di-Boc-N''- triflylguanidine (3) and N,N'-di-Cbz-N''-triflylguanidine (4) is presented. The triflyldiurethane-protected guanidine 3 was utilized to guanidinylate primary and secondary amines under mild conditions with high yield in both solution and on solid phase.
