Sulfenyl chloride chemistry, sulfur transfer to double bonds

When triphenylmethanesulfenyl chloride (1) (or its thio homolog 2) are treated with various bicycles, 1,2 addition reactions take place. Final products occur via an episulfide intermediate. The stereochemistry of addition has been determined by x-ray analysis. Finally, evidence has been obtained for the delivery of diatomic sulfur, likely via intermediate 3.

Mimicry of the binding interface of antibody-antigen interactions using peptide-based modulators (i.e., epitope mimics) has promising applications for vaccine design. These epitope mimics can be synthesized in a streamlined and straightforward fashion, thereby allowing for high-throughput analysis. The design of epitope mimics is highly influenced by their spatial configuration and structural conformation. It is widely assumed that for proper mimicry sufficient conformational constraints have to be implemented. This paper describes the synthesis of bromide derivatives functionalized with a flexible TEG linker equipped with a thiol-moiety that could be used to support cyclic or linear peptides. The cyclic and linear epitope mimics were covalently conjugated via the free thiol-moiety on maleimide-activated plate surfaces. The resulting covalent, uniform, and oriented coated surface of cyclic or linear epitope mimics were subjected to an ELISA to investigate the effect of peptide cyclization with respect to mimicry of an antigen-antibody interaction of the HCV E2 glycoprotein. To the best of our knowledge, the benefit of cyclized peptides over linear peptides has been clearly demonstrated here for the first time. Cyclic epitope mimics, and not the linear epitope mimics, demonstrated specificity toward their monoclonal antibodies HC84.1 and V3.2, respectively. The described strategy for the construction of epitope mimics shows potential for high-throughput screening of key binding residues by simply changing the amino acid sequences within synthetic peptides. In this way, leucine-438 has been identified as a key binding residue for binding monoclonal antibody V3.2.

The invention discloses a largazole analogue which contains alkyl disulfide side chains and is represented by formula I, and a preparation method and applications thereof. The largazole analogue possesses relatively high antineoplastic activity and selectivity, can be used for development of antitumor drugs. Raw materials of the largazole analogue are cheap and easily available; and the preparation method is simple, and is a method suitable for industrialization. R in formula represents an alkyl group containing 1 to 8 carbon atoms.
