- CNS and antimalarial activity of synthetic meridianin and psammopemmin analogs
-
The marine invertebrate-derived meridianin A, the originally proposed structure for psammopemmin A, and several related 3-pyrimidylindole analogs were synthesized and subsequently investigated for central nervous system, antimalarial, and cytotoxic activity. A Suzuki coupling of an indoleborate ester to the pyrimidine electrophile was utilized to form the natural product and derivatives thereof. The 3-pyrimidineindoles were found to prevent radioligand binding to several CNS receptors and transporters, most notably, serotonin receptors (i for 5HT2B). Two compounds also inhibited the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum (IC50 50 = 15 μM).

- A NaH-promoted N-detosylation reaction of diverse p-toluenesulfonamides
-
A NaH-mediated detosylation reaction of various Ts-protected indoles, azaheterocycles, anilines and dibenzylamine was reported. The method features cheap reagent, convenient operations, mild reaction conditions and broad substrate scope. Moreover, this study revealed that the loading of NaH in tosylation reactions of nitrogen-containing compounds with NaH as a base in DMA or DMF should be controlled due to the possibility of adverse detosylation.

- Potassium tert-Butoxide-Promoted Acceptorless Dehydrogenation of N-Heterocycles
-
Potassium tert-butoxide-promoted acceptorless dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles was efficiently realized for the generation of N-heteroarenes and hydrogen gas under transition-metal-free conditions. In the presence of KOtBu base, a variety of six- and five-membered N-heterocyclic compounds efficiently underwent acceptorless dehydrogenation to afford the corresponding N-heteroarenes and H2 gas in o-xylene at 140 °C. The present protocol provides a convenient route to aromatic nitrogen-containing compounds and H2 gas. (Figure presented.).

- High efficiency two-photon uncaging coupled by the correction of spontaneous hydrolysis
-
Two-photon (TP) uncaging of neurotransmitter molecules is the method of choice to mimic and study the subtleties of neuronal communication either in the intact brain or in slice preparations. However, the currently available caged materials are just at the limit of their usability and have several drawbacks. The local and focal nature of their use may for example be jeopardized by a high spontaneous hydrolysis rate of the commercially available compounds with increased photochemical release rate. Here, using quantum chemical modelling we show the mechanisms of hydrolysis and two-photon activation, and synthesized more effective caged compounds. Furthermore, we have developed a new enzymatic elimination method removing neurotransmitters inadvertently escaping from their compound during experiment. This method, usable both in one and two-photon experiments, allows for the use of materials with an increased rate of photochemical release. The efficiency of the new compound and the enzymatic method and of the new compound are demonstrated in neurophysiological experiments.

- Painting argyrins blue: Negishi cross-coupling for synthesis of deep-blue tryptophan analogue β-(1-azulenyl)-L alanine and its incorporation into argyrin C
-
The argyrins are a family of non-ribosomal peptides that exhibits different biological activities through only small structural changes. Ideally, a biologically active molecule can be tracked and observed in a variety of biological and clinical settings in a non-invasive manner. As a step towards this goal, we report here a chemical synthesis of unnatural deep blue amino acid β-(1-azulenyl)-L alanine with different fluorescence and photophysical properties, which allows a spectral separation from the native tryptophan signal. This might be especially useful for cell localization studies and visualizing the targeted proteins. In particular, the synthesis of β-(1-azulenyl)-L alanine was achieved through a Negishi coupling which proved to be a powerful tool for the synthesis of unnatural tryptophan analogs. Upon β-(1-azulenyl)-L alanine incorporation into argyrin C, deep blue octapeptide variant was spectrally and structurally characterized.

- Biotransformation of rutabaga phytoalexins by the fungus Alternaria brassicicola: Unveiling the first hybrid metabolite derived from a phytoalexin and a fungal polyketide
-
The biotransformations of the rutabaga phytoalexins rutalexin, brassicanate A, isalexin and rapalexin A by the plant pathogenic fungus Alternaria brassicicola are reported. While the biotransformations of rutalexin, brassicanate A, and isalexin are fast, rapalexin A is resistant to fungal transformation. Unexpectedly, biotransformation of rutalexin yields a hybrid metabolite named rutapyrone, derived from rutalexin metabolism and phomapyrone G, a fungal metabolite produced by A. brassicicola. These fungal transformations are detoxification reactions likely carried out by different enzymes. The discovery of rapalexin A resistance to detoxification suggests that this phytoalexin in combination with additional phytoalexins could protect crucifers against this pathogen. Phytoalexins resistant to degradation by A. brassicicola are expected to provide the producing plants with higher disease resistance levels.

- An Fmoc-compatible method for synthesis of peptides containing photocaged aspartic acid or glutamic acid
-
A new method compatible with 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) was developed to synthesize photocaged peptides carrying the photosensitive 4-methoxy-7-nitroindoline (MNI) group on the side chain of aspartic acid (Asp) and glutamic acid (Glu). The caged building blocks, Fmoc-Asp(MNI)-OH and Fmoc-Glu(MNI)-OH, could be readily synthesized on multi-gram scale. An important advantage of the new method is that the MNI group prevents the formation of aminosuccinyl side products and pyrrolidones during Fmoc SPPS and has rapid photolysis kinetics. Thus our method provides a useful approach for photocaging of peptides and proteins at side chain carboxylic groups.

- A highly active and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of indole and phenyl ether
-
A new simple catalytic system consisting of copper-aluminium and hydrotalcite (CuAl-HT) has been developed using a facile one-pot method without harm to the environment. The catalyst was characterized using TEM, XRD and XPS. It could be used as an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of both indole and phenyl ether. As expected, the catalyst afforded high catalytic activity for the selective synthesis of indole via intramolecular dehydrogenative N-heterocyclization of 2-(2-aminophenyl)ethanol. Meanwhile, it also exhibited superior catalytic properties for an Ullmann-type coupling reaction to synthesise phenyl ether from iodobenzene and phenol. The CuAl-HT catalyst showed higher activity than conventional catalysts based on copper and could be recycled several times with stable catalytic activity. This procedure has real economic advantages since no expensive materials were used.

- Dissecting metabolic puzzles through isotope feeding: A novel amino acid in the biosynthetic pathway of the cruciferous phytoalexins rapalexin A and isocyalexin A
-
Understanding defence pathways of plants is crucial to develop disease-resistant agronomic crops, an important element of sustainable agriculture. For this reason, natural plant defenses such as phytoalexins, involved in protecting plants against microbial pathogens, have enormous biotechnological appeal. Crucifers are economically important plants, with worldwide impact as oilseeds, vegetables of great dietetic value and even nutraceuticals. Notably, the intermediates involved in the biosynthetic pathways of unique cruciferous phytoalexins such as rapalexin A and isocyalexin A remain unknown. Toward this end, using numerous perdeuterated compounds, we have established the potential precursors of these unique phytoalexins and propose for the first time their detailed biosynthetic pathway. This pathway involves a variety of intermediates and a novel amino acid as the central piece of this complex puzzle. This work has set the stage for the discovery of enzymes and genes of the biosynthetic pathway of cruciferous phytoalexins of unique scaffolds.

- "on water" direct and site-selective Pd-catalysed C-H arylation of (NH)-indoles
-
This communication describes the development of a versatile catalytic system based on palladium(II) acetate/bis(diphenylphosphino)methane [Pd(OAc)2/dppm] that works "on water" giving site-selective C-H arylation of (NH)-indoles without protecting or directing groups. Remarkably, the control of regioselectivity was achieved by small changes in the "extra-catalytic" base/halide partners. These innovative methodologies allow a high-yielding access to both C2 and C3-arylindoles, as well as 2,3-diarylindoles, and display high chemo/regioselectivities and structural versatility with regard to either indole or aryl moieties.

- SYNTHESIS OF INDOLES FROM N-(TRIFLUOROACETYL)-2-ANILINO ACETALS
-
N-(trifluoroacetyl)indoles (3) are produced in high yield from appropriately ring-substituted N-(trifluoroacetyl)-2-anilino acetals (2) in boiling trifluoroacetic acid containing excess trifluoroacetic anhydride.Mild saponification provides the free indoles nearly quantitatively.The scope of the reaction is discussed.The ring closure follows solvolytic substitution of a trifluoroacetoxy group for one of the ethoxy groups in 2.The method has been extended to cyclization of N-(trifluoroacetyl)-α-anilinoacetone in hot polyphosphoric acid followed by saponification to yield 3-methylindole.

- SYNTHESIS OF 4-SUBSTITUTED INDOLES FROM o-NITROTOLUENES
-
A facile two- or three-step transformation of o-nitrotoluenes into 4-substituted indoles is described.Treatment of o-nitrotoluenes 1 with DMF acetal, or sometimes more advantageously with tris(N,N-dimethylamino)methane, affords β-(N,N-dimethylamino)styrenes 2 which are readily converted too-nitrophenylacetaldehyde semicarbazones 3 without isolation.Reduction of either 2 or 3 affords 4-substituted indoles 4.Use of the very insoluble semicarbazones results in vastly superior yields of 4 by minimizing completing bimolecular condensation reactions during reduction.This new procedure has been applied to efficiently and conveniently prepare a series of 4-substituted indoles 4.
