- Design, synthesis and antitumor activity evaluation of Chrysamide B derivatives
-
Marine natural products derived from special or extreme environment provide an important source for the development of anti-tumor drugs due to their special skeletons and functional groups. In this study, based on our previous work on the total synthesis and structure revision of the novel marine natural product Chrysamide B, a group of its derivatives were designed, synthesized, and subsequently of which the anti-cancer activity, structure-activity relationships and cellular mechanism were explored for the first time. Compared with Chrysamide B, better anti-cancer performance of some derivatives against five human cancer cell lines (SGC-7901, MGC-803, HepG2, HCT-116, MCF-7) was observed, especially for compound b-9 on MGC-803 and SGC-7901 cells with the IC 50 values of 7.88 ± 0.81 and 10.08 ± 1.08 μM, respectively. Subsequently, cellular mechanism study suggested that compound b-9 treatment could inhibit the cellular proliferation, reduce the migration and invasion ability of cells, and induce mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis in gastric cancer MGC-803 and SGC-7901 cells. Furthermore, the mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis induced by compound b-9 is related with the JAK2/STAT3/Bcl-2 signaling pathway. To conclude, our results offer a new structure for the discovery of anti-tumor lead compounds from marine natural products.

- Discovery of a novel inhibitor of nitric oxide production with potential therapeutic effect on acute inflammation
-
Inflammation as a host's excessive immune response to stimulation, is involved in the development of numerous diseases. To discover novel anti-inflammatory agents and based on our previous synthetic work on marine natural product Chrysamide B, it and a series of derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity on inhibition of LPS-induced NO production. Then the preliminary structure–activity relationships were conducted. Among them, Chrysamide B is the most potent anti-inflammatory agent with low cytotoxicity and strong inhibition on the production of NO (IC50 = 0.010 μM) and the activity of iNOS (IC50 = 0.082 μM) in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Primary studies suggested that the mechanism of action may be that it interfered the formation of active dimeric iNOS but not affected transcription and translation. Furthermore, its good performance of anti-inflammatory effect on LPS-induced multiple inflammatory cytokines production, carrageenan-induced paw edema, and endotoxin-induced septic mice, was observed. We believe that these findings would provide an idea for the further modification and research of these analogs in the future.

- Anti-biofilm and anti-adherence properties of novel cyclic dipeptides against oral pathogens
-
Microorganisms embedded in a biofilm are significantly more resistant to antimicrobial agents and the defences of the human immune system, than their planktonic counterpart. Consequently, compounds that can inhibit biofilm formation are of great interest for novel therapeutics. In this study, a screening approach was used to identify novel cyclic dipeptides that have anti-biofilm activity against oral pathogens. Five new active compounds were identified that prevent biofilm formation by the cariogenic bacterium Streptococcus mutans and the pathogenic fungus Candida albicans. These compounds also inhibit the adherence of microorganisms to a hydroxylapatite surface. Further investigations were conducted on these compounds to establish the structure–activity relationship, and it was deduced that the common cleft pattern is required for these molecules to act effectively against biofilms.

- Synthesis method for nitro group-containing natural product chrysamides B and diastereoisomer-compound thereof
-
The invention belongs to the technical fields of medicinal chemistry and organic synthesis, and relates to a synthesis method for a nitro group-containing natural product chrysamides B, a chrysamidesB diastereoisomer-compound and a synthesis method and application thereof. According to the invention, a convergent synthesis method is adopted to condense chiral epoxy carboxylic acid and chiral dimethylpiperazine ring, and thereby the nitro group-containing natural product chrysamides B with a symmetrical structure and the chrysamides B diastereoisomer-compound are easily and efficiently synthesized. By three-step continuous oxidation, chiral epoxy carboxylic acid is prepared from p-nitrobenzaldehyde which is easy to obtain commercially, and dimethylpiperazine ring is prepared by reduction after alanine dimerization. The compound shows inhibitory activity on pasteurella multocida. Such a convergent synthesis route can be applied to the chemical synthesis of compounds with the similar structure and related derivatives, opening up a broad development space for novel antibiotic drugs.

- Interfacial supramolecular biomimetic epoxidation catalysed by cyclic dipeptides
-
We synthesised a library of cis- and trans-cyclic dipeptides and evaluated their efficacy as catalysts in the asymmetric Weitz-Scheffer epoxidation of trans-chalcone. A thorough investigation relying on structure-activity studies and computational studies provided insights into the mechanism of the process. Our results revealed some structural features required for efficient conversion and for introduction of chirality into the product. The cyclic dipeptide acts as a catalyst by templating a supramolecular arrangement at the aqueous-organic interface required for efficient transformations to occur. Among all cyclic dipeptides investigated, cyclo(Leu-Leu) was the most efficient supramolecular catalyst.

- Total synthesis of chrysamide B
-
We report an efficient synthesis of the dimeric trans-epoxyamide chrysamide B, recently isolated from the deep-sea-derived fungus Penicillium chrysogenum SCSIO41001. Our synthetic strategy exploits a convergent approach using solid-phase peptide synthesis for the piperazine core and a Sharpless-Katsuki epoxidation to prepare the chiral epoxyacid. The double amidation final step provides chrysamide B that was thoroughly characterized with all spectra identical to those of the natural sample. The approach was devised to facilitate the preparation of a library of analogs of chrysamide B.

- Stereochemistry of Piperazine-2,5-dione Formation by Self-condensation of DL-Amino Acid Esters
-
'Racemic' piperazine-2,5-diones (diketopiperazines, dkps) have been synthesized by the self-condensation of DL-amino acid esters without solvent.It was found that 'racemic' dkps consisted of cis- and trans-isomers, and that cis-dkp was preferentially formed in the early stage of the self-condensation, the cis:trans ratios gradually decreasing with increasing reaction time.These results may be attributed to the difference in the rates of cyclization of two kinds of diastereoisomeric dipeptide esters, intermediates in the formation of dkps from DL-amino acid esters.It was further confirmed that the pre-cis-dipeptide ester, which formed cis-dkp, cyclized faster than the pre-trans-dipeptide ester in methanol.Differences in steric hindrance in the cyclization reaction of pre-cis- and pre-trans-isomers may be an important factor in the stereochemistry of self-condensation.

- Asymmetric Syntheses via Heterocyclic Intermediates, V. - Asymmetric Synthesis of α-Methyl Amino Acids by Alkylation of the Lithiated Lactim Ether of cyclo-(L-Ala-L-Ala)
-
The (3S,6S)-2,5-dimethoxy-3,6-dimethyl-3,6-dihydropyrazine (7) is obtained from cyclo-(L-Ala-L-Ala) 5 (93-95percent optically pure) and trimethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate.With butyllithium the lithio derivative 8 is formed which reacts with alkyl halides in good chemical yields and with more than 90percent diastereoselectivity, whereby R-configuration is induced at C-3.A model concept is discussed, which explains the remarkably high asymmetric induction. - Hydrolysis (0.25 N HCl, room temp.) gives L-alanine methyl ester (4) and the (R)-α-methyl amino acid methyl esters 13.The two amino acid esters are separable by distillation or chromatography.
