- Quantitative helix handedness bias through a single Hvs.CH3stereochemical differentiation
-
A novel chiral aromatic δ-amino acid building block was shown to fully induce handedness in quinoline oligoamide foldamers with the possibility of further increasing the bias by combining multiples of these units in the same sequence. Through its incorporation within the helix, both N- and C-termini are still accessible for further functionalisation.

- Asymmetric synthesis of photophore-containing lactisole derivatives to elucidate sweet taste receptors
-
Lactisole, which has a 2-phenoxy propionic acid skeleton, is well-known as an inhibitor of sweet taste receptors. We recently revealed some of the structure-activity relationships of the aromatic ring and chiral center of lactisole. Photoaffinity labeling

- A new method for production of chiral 2-aryloxypropanoic acids using effective kinetic resolution of racemic 2-aryloxycarboxylic acids
-
We report a novel method for the preparation of 2-aryloxypropanoic acids by kinetic resolution of racemic 2-aryloxypropanoic acids using enantioselective esterification. The usage of pivalic anhydride (Piv2O) as an activating agent, bis(a-naphthyl)methanol ((α-Np)2CHOH) as an achiral alcohol, and (+)-benzotetramisole ((+)-BTM) as a chiral acyl-transfer catalyst enables the effective separation of various racemic 2-aryloxypropanoic acids to afford optically active carboxylic acids and the corresponding esters with high enantioselectivities. Furthermore, theoretical calculations of the transition states required to form the chiral esters successfully proved the enantiomer recognition mechanism of the asymmetric esterification.

- A cyclic trimer of 2-(2-aminophenoxy)propionic acid with a bowl-shaped structure
-
A cyclic trimer of (R)-2-(2-aminophenoxy)propanoic acid, a δ-amino acid analogue, was synthesized. Molecular mechanics calculations on the cyclic trimer predicted that a concave network of sequential hydrogen bonds forms a C3-symmetric bowl-sha

- Induced helix of 2-(2-aminophenoxy)alkanoic acid oligomers as a δ-peptidomimetic foldamer
-
Peptidomimetic foldamers were synthesized by oligomerizing derivatives of the δ-amino acid analogue, 2-(2-aminophenoxy)alkanoic acid. Single-crystal analysis of the tetramer reveals a 21-helical secondary structure stabilized by hydrogen bonding and the coiled stacking of aromatic rings. The M-helicity of 2-aminophenoxyacetic acid oligomers was induced by the incorporation of only a single chiral carbon of the N-terminal (R)-2-(2-nitrophenoxy)propionamide moiety. The solution state CD spectra demonstrated that the resulting helix induced a substantial Cotton effect. The secondary structure was further characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy.

- Optical resolution of aryloxypropionic acids and their esters by HPLC on cellulose tris-3,5-dimethyl-triphenylcarbamate derivative
-
Chiral chromatographic resolution of a series of antiphlogistic 2- aryloxypropionic acids and their methyl and ethyl esters was performed using a Chiralcel OD column. The CSP selected resolved most of the acids and esters efficiently, the enantiomers being well separated without requiring time consuming analysis. Chromatographic separation of R enriched samples was performed to determine the correct elution order. Using eluting systems such as hexane and 2-propanol, or hexane, 2-propanol and formic acid, the S enantiomer of all acids and esters was always found to elute first. We also considered the role of electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents (at the aryloxylic moiety) on the chiral resolution. It was shown that the electronic features of the substituents have more influence on the chiral interactions between the solutes and the CSP than their steric hindrance. Finally we determined, by molecular models, the interaction between CSP and solutes. In this way were able to determine all the potential sites for interactions, which are compatible with the conformations of the compounds and the structure of the stationary phase, and point out those interactions which enable chiral resolution.
