- Total Synthesis of Tetrahydrolipstatin, Its Derivatives, and Evaluation of Their Ability to Potentiate Multiple Antibiotic Classes against Mycobacterium Species
-
Tetrahydrolipstatin (THL, 1a) has been shown to inhibit both mammalian and bacterial α/β hydrolases. In the case of bacterial systems, THL is a known inhibitor of several Mycobacterium tuberculosis hydrolases involved in mycomembrane biosynthesis. Herein we report a highly efficient eight-step asymmetric synthesis of THL using a route that allows modification of the THL α-chain substituent to afford compounds 1a through 1e. The key transformation in the synthesis was use of a (TPP)CrCl/Co2(CO)8-catalyzed regioselective and stereospecific carbonylation on an advanced epoxide intermediate to yield a trans-β-lactone. These compounds are modest inhibitors of Ag85A and Ag85C, two α/β hydrolases of M. tuberculosis involved in the biosynthesis of the mycomembrane. Among these compounds, 10d showed the highest inhibitory effect on Ag85A (34 ± 22 μM) and Ag85C (66 ± 8 μM), and its X-ray structure was solved in complex with Ag85C to 2.5 ? resolution. In contrast, compound 1e exhibited the best-in-class MICs of 50 μM (25 μg/mL) and 16 μM (8.4 μg/mL) against M. smegmatis and M. tuberculosis H37Ra, respectively, using a microtiter assay plate. Combination of 1e with 13 well-established antibiotics synergistically enhanced the potency of few of these antibiotics in M. smegmatis and M. tuberculosis H37Ra. Compound 1e applied at concentrations 4-fold lower than its MIC enhanced the MIC of the synergistic antibiotic by 2-256-fold. In addition to observing synergy with first-line drugs, rifamycin and isoniazid, the MIC of vancomycin against M. tuberculosis H37Ra was 65 μg/mL; however, the MIC was lowered to 0.25 μg/mL in the presence of 2.1 μg/mL 1e demonstrating the potential of targeting mycobacterial hydrolases involved in mycomembrane and peptidoglycan biosynthesis.

- Stereochemical Structure Activity Relationship Studies (S-SAR) of Tetrahydrolipstatin
-
Tetrahydrolipstatin (THL), its enantiomer, and an additional six diastereomers were evaluated as inhibitors of the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl butyrate by porcine pancreatic lipase. IC50s were found for all eight stereoisomers ranging from a low of 4.0 nM for THL to a high of 930 nM for the diastereomer with the inverted stereocenters at the 2,3,2′-positions. While the enantiomer of THL was also significantly less active (77 nM) the remaining five stereoisomers retained significant inhibitory activities (IC50s = 8.0 to 20 nM). All eight compounds were also evaluated against three human cancer cell lines (human breast cancers MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, human large-cell lung carcinoma H460). No appreciable cytotoxicity was observed for THL and its seven diastereomers, as their IC50s in a MTT cytotoxicity assay were all greater than 3 orders of magnitude of camptothecin.

- Weight-reducing medicine orlistat synthesis method
-
The invention discloses a weight-reducing medicine orlistat synthesis method. The synthesis method includes that in existence of (R,R)-(-)-N,N'-bis(3,5-ditert-butyl-salicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexyl diamine cobalt, lipstatin and sodium borohydride are subjected to reduction reaction under catalysis of cuprous chloride to obtain orlistat. The orlistat synthesis method is quick in reaction, and reaction yield is increased effectively. By adoption of (R,R)-(-)-N,N'-bis(3,5-ditert-butyl-salicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexyl diamine cobalt as a stabilizer of a reducing agent, low side reaction quantity, easiness in product purification and suitableness for industrial expanded production are realized.

- Total synthesis of tetrahydrolipstatin and stereoisomers via a highly regio- and diastereoselective carbonylation of epoxyhomoallylic alcohols
-
A concise enantioselective synthesis of tetrahydrolipstatin (THL) and seven stereoisomers has been achieved. The synthesis of THL was accomplished in 10 steps and 31% overall yield from an achiral ynone. Key to the success of the approach is the use of a bimetallic [Lewis acid]+[Co(CO)4]- catalyst for a late-stage regioselective carbonylation of an enantiomerically pure cis-epoxide to a trans-β-lactone. The success of this route to THL and its stereoisomers also demonstrated the practicality of the carbonylation catalyst for complex molecule synthesis as well as its functional group compatibility.

(Chemical Equation Presented) An asymmetric synthesis of anti-aldol segments via a nonaldol route is described. The strategy involves a highly diastereoselective synthesis of functionalized tetrahydrofuran derivatives from optically active 4-phenylbutyrolactone. Treatment of the tetrahydrofuran derivatives with a Lewis acid and acetic anhydride provided the corresponding ring-opened styrene derivatives. Oxidative cleavage of the styrene derivatives provided access to the anti-aldol segments. The utility of this methodology was demonstrated by the synthesis of statine derivatives and pancreatic lipase inhibitor, (-)-tetrahydrolipstatin.

Hydroboration-oxidation gave the 7R,8S,10S-alcohol 16.

The total synthesis of (-)-tetrahydrolipstatin utilizing two approaches is described. In the first, L-malic acid was used as a chiral template to obtain enantiomerically pure (R)-3-(benzyloxy)-tetradecanal (11) which was chain- extended using 1-(trimethylsilyl)-2-nonene and a Lewis acid. This advanced intermediate was further elaborated to the target compound in good overall yield. The second approach utilized lauraldehyde as a starting material and capitalizes on an asymmetric allylboronation (91% ee). The product could be obtained enantiomerically pure by conversion to the (R)-acetoxymandelate ester and hydrolysis. Oxidative cleavage of the terminal double bond led to 11 which was further extended using 1,3- and 1,2-asymmetric induction based on existing neighboring chirality. The synthesis of tetrahydrolipstatin using the second approach comprises seven steps from 11 and proceeds in 38% overall yield.

- Synthesis of Tetrahydrolipstatin and Tetrahydroesterastin, Compounds with a β-Lactone Moiety. Stereoselective Hydrogenation of a β-Keto δ-Lactone and Convertion of the δ-Lactone into a β-Lactone
-
Stereoselective syntheses of tetrahydrolipstatin (1) and tetrahydroesterastin (2) are described.The key intermediate β-ketoδ-lactone 7 is hydrogenated stereoselectively to yield hydroxy δ-lactone 9, which is transformed into hydroxy β-lactone 10.Esterification of 10 with (S)-N-formylleucine under Mitsunobu's conditions yields tetrahydrolipstatin (1).Esterification of 10 with (S)-N-acetylasparagine under the same conditions yields 17 (mixture of two diastereomers), which gives by saponification hydroxy β-lactone 18.Reaction of the latter with the mixed anhydride of (S)-N-Z-asparagine, hydrogenation, and acetylation give tetrahydroesterastin (2).
