A simple and straight forward first total synthesis of rare lumazine peptides, Penilumamide B, C and D isolated from the marine-derived fungi Aspergillus and Penicillium sp. is described from a common starting material, 1,3-dimethyllumazine-6-carboxylic acid. Penilumamide C was prepared from Penilumamide B by oxidation of the methionine residue to the corresponding sulphone.

Catalytic transformation of alcohols via metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions is very important, but it typically relies on a multistep procedure. We here report a dynamic kinetic cross-coupling approach for the direct functionalization of alcohols. The feasibility of this strategy is demonstrated by a nickel-catalyzed cross-electrophile arylation reaction of benzyl alcohols with (hetero)aryl electrophiles. The reaction proceeds with a broad substrate scope of both coupling partners. The electron-rich, electron-poor, and ortho-/meta-/para-substituted (hetero)aryl electrophiles (e.g., Ar-OTf, Ar-I, Ar-Br, and inert Ar-Cl) all coupled well. Most of the functionalities, including aldehyde, ketone, amide, ester, nitrile, sulfone, furan, thiophene, benzothiophene, pyridine, quinolone, Ar-SiMe3, Ar-Bpin, and Ar-SnBu3, were tolerated. The dynamic nature of this method enables the direct arylation of benzylic alcohol in the presence of various nucleophilic groups, including nonactivated primary/secondary/tertiary alcohols, phenols, and free indoles. It thus offers a robust alternative to existing methods for the precise construction of diarylmethanes. The synthetic utility of the method was demonstrated by a concise synthesis of biologically active molecules and by its application to peptide modification and conjugation. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that the reaction of in situ formed benzyl oxalates with nickel, possibly via a radical process, is an initial step in the reaction with aryl electrophiles.

One-pot conversion of sustainable d-ribose with l-amino acid, methyl esters produced pyrrole-2-carbaldehydes 5 in reasonable yields (32-63%) under pressurized conditions of 2.5 atm at 80 °C. The value-added pyrraline compounds 5 as platform chemicals were utilized for quick installation of poly-heterocyclic cores for the development of pyrrole-motif natural and artificial therapeutic agents. A pyrrole-fused piperazin-2-one scaffold 6 was prepared by reductive amination of pyrralines 5 with benzylamine. While further cyclization of pyrralines 5 with ethane-1,2-diamine produced pyrrolo-piperazin-2-ones 7 with an extra imidazolidine ring, the reaction with 2-amino alcohols derived from natural l-amino acids, alanine, valine, and phenylalanine, respectively provided pyrrolo-piperazin-2-ones 8, 9, and 10 with oxazolidine as the third structural core. Cell viability and an anti-inflammatory effect of the synthesized compounds were briefly tested by the MTT method and the Griess assay, among which 8h and 10g exhibited significant anti-inflammatory effects with negligible cell toxicity.

Monocyclic β-lactams revive the research field on antibiotics, which are threatened by the emergence of resistant bacteria. A six-step synthetic route was developed, providing easy access to new 3-amino-1-carboxymethyl-4-phenyl-β-lactams, of which the penicillin-binding protein (PBP) inhibitory potency was demonstrated biochemically.

Benzimidazole is an important pharmacophore for clinically active drugs against inflammation and treatment of pain, however, it is associated with gastrointestinal side effects. Here we synthesized benzimidazole based agents with significant analgesic/anti-inflammatory potential but with less gastrointestinal adverse effects. In this study, we synthesized novel, orally bioavailable 2-mercaptobenzimidazole amino acid conjugates (4a–4o) and screened them for analgesic, anti-inflammatory and gastro-protective effects. The synthesized 2-mercaptbenzimidazole derivatives were characterized for their structure using FTIR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopic techniques. The 2-mercaptobenzimidazole amino acid conjugates have found to possess potent analgesic, anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective activities, particularly with compound 4j and 4k. Most of the compounds exhibited remarkable anti-ulcer and antisecretory effects. Molecular docking studies were carried out to study the binding affinities and interactions of the synthesized compounds with target proteins COX-2 (PDB ID: 3LN1) and H+/K+-ATPase (PDB ID: 5Y0B). Our results support the clinical promise of these newly synthesized 2-mercaptobezimidazol conjugates as a component of therapeutic strategies for inflammation and analgesia, for which the gastric side effects are always a major limitation.

Continuous-flow production of chiral intermediates plays an important role in the development of building blocks for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), being α-amino acids and their derivatives widely applied as building blocks. In this work we developed two different strategies for the synthesis of intermediates used on the synthesis of levetiracetam/brivaracetam and ethambutol. The results obtained show that methionine methyl ester can be continuously converted to the desired ethambutol intermediate by RANEY Nickel dessulfurization/reduction strategy whereas levetiracetam/brivaracetam intermediates could be synthesized by both RANEY Nickel (without H2) and Pd/C-H2 approach or by photochemical desulfurization.

The rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric ring opening reaction of oxabicyclic alkenes is shown to be an efficient method for synthesizing chiral heterocycles. We demonstrate that the pairwise combination of chiral catalyst with chiral amino-acid-derived pronucleophiles results in a stereodivergent synthesis of diastereomeric hydroxyesters. A favorable conformational preference induces the subsequent lactonization of one diastereomer leading to the highly enantioselective synthesis of oxazinones.

A series of non-classical pincer ligands with the secondary amide central unit and amino acid pendant arms was obtained from 2-diphenylphosphanyl- and 2-methylsulfanylbenzoic acids and a range of amino acid derivatives (S-methyl-L-cysteine, L-methionine, and L-histidine methyl esters). In addition, the reactions of amino acid-functionalized chloroacetamides with in situ generated Ph2PSK afforded their counterparts with an aliphatic ligand backbone. All the compounds obtained smoothly underwent direct cyclopalladation upon interaction with PdCl2(NCPh)2 under mild reaction conditions, resulting in N-metallated pincer complexes with 5,6- and 6,6-membered fused metallocycles. The realization of κ3-S,N,S-, S,N,N- and S,N,P-coordination was unambiguously confirmed based on the IR and NMR spectroscopic data. In the case of the methionine-based thiophosphorylacetamide derivative, the unexpected selectivity in the formation of one complex diastereomer was observed in solution. The solid-state structures of some of the complexes obtained were also elucidated by X-ray crystallography. The preliminary investigations on cytotoxicity of the resulting palladocycles against HCT116, MCF7, and PC3 human cancer cell lines as well as HEK293 normal cells gave some insight into the structure–activity relationships for this relatively new type of potential anticancer agents. Some of the complexes demonstrated promising cytotoxic effects.
