Fanelli, Roberto,Salah, Khoubaib Ben Haj,Inguimbert, Nicolas,Didierjean, Claude,Martinez, Jean,Cavelier, Florine
, p. 4498 - 4501 (2015)
A concise synthetic pathway yielding to hydrophobic α,α-disubstituted disilylated amino acids based on a hydrosilylation reaction is described. As a first example of utilization in solid-phase peptide synthesis, TESDpg was introduced in replacement of Aib in an alamethicin sequence, leading to analogues with modified physicochemical properties and conserved helical structures. This study highlights the potential of these new amino acids as tools for peptide modulation.

Paragraph 0024-0026; 0043-0045, (2021/06/09)
The invention relates to a preparation method of benzophenone imine glycine ester, and belongs to the technical field of chemical organic synthesis. The preparation method comprises the following step: by taking benzophenone imine as an initial raw material, reacting benzophenone imine with halogenated acetate in the presence of alkali to obtain benzophenone imine glycine ester. The structure of the halogenated acetate is shown as a formula 3 in the specification, wherein X is chlorine or bromine, and R is methyl, ethyl, isopropyl or tertiary butyl. By starting from simple and easily available raw materials, the invention provides a simple and convenient method for synthesizing benzophenone imine glycine ester.

N-Unprotected ketimines are useful substrates and intermediates for synthesizing valuable nitrogen-containing compounds, but their potential applicability is limited by the available synthetic methods. To address this issue, we report a scandium(III) triflate catalyzed direct synthesis of N-unprotected ketimines. Using commercially available reagents and Lewis acid catalysts, ketones were directly transformed into the corresponding N-unprotected ketimines in high yields with broad functional group tolerance, even in multigram scales. The reactions were readily applicable for one-pot synthesis of important compounds such as a glycine Schiff base without isolation of N-unprotected ketimine intermediates. Preliminary mechanistic studies to clarify the reaction mechanism are also described.

We report synthesis and enzymatic assays on human histone lysine methyltransferase catalysed methylation of histones that possess lysine and its geometrically constrained analogues containing rigid (E)-alkene (KE), (Z)-alkene (KZ) and alkyne (Kyne) moieties. Methyltransferases G9a and GLP do have a capacity to catalyse methylation in the order K ? KE > KZ ~ Kyne, whereas monomethyltransferase SETD8 catalyses only methylation of K and KE,.
Enantio- and Diastereoselective Synthesis of β-Aryl-β-pyrazolyl α-Amino Acid Esters via Copper-Catalyzed Reaction of Azomethine Ylides with Benzylidenepyrazolones

A fully stereoselective synthesis of unnatural chiral β-aryl-β-pyrazolyl α-amino acid esters via copper-catalyzed addition reactions of azomethine ylides with benzylidenepyrazolones bearing two contiguous stereogenic centers was developed. A 1H-pyrazol-5-ol was introduced by the aromatization of 3H-pyrazol-3-one in the reaction. The transformation operated at room temperature and afforded β-1H-pyrazol-5-ol-α-amino esters in high yields with good to excellent levels of diastereo- and enantioselectivity.

The β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR), a G protein-coupled receptor, is an important therapeutic target. We recently described Cmpd-15, the first small molecule negative allosteric modulator (NAM) for the β2AR. Herein we report in details the design, synthesis and structure-activity relationships (SAR) of seven Cmpd-15 derivatives. Furthermore, we provide in a dose-response paradigm, the details of the effects of these derivatives in modulating agonist-induced β2AR activities (G-protein-mediated cAMP production and β-arrestin recruitment to the receptor) as well as the binding affinity of an orthosteric agonist in radio-ligand competition binding assay. Our results show that some modifications, including removal of the formamide group in the para-formamido phenylalanine region and bromine in the meta-bromobenzyl methylbenzamide region caused dramatic reduction in the functional activity of Cmpd-15. These SAR results provide valuable insights into the mechanism of action of the NAM Cmpd-15 as well as the basis for future development of more potent and selective modulators for the β2AR based on the chemical scaffold of Cmpd-15.

Two [18F]fluoroalkyl substituted amino acids differing only by the presence or absence of a methyl group on the α-carbon, (S)-2-amino-7-[18F]fluoro-2-methylheptanoic acid ((S)-[18F]FAMHep, (S)-[18F]14) and (S)-2-amino-7-[18F]fluoroheptanoic acid ((S)-[18F]FAHep, (S)-[18F]15), were developed for brain tumor imaging and compared to the well-established system L amino acid tracer, O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-l-tyrosine ([18F]FET), in the delayed brain tumor (DBT) mouse model of high-grade glioma. Cell uptake, biodistribution, and PET/CT imaging studies showed differences in amino acid transport of these tracer by DBT cells. Recognition of (S)-[18F]15 but not (S)-[18F]14 by system L amino acid transporters led to approximately 8-10-fold higher uptake of the α-hydrogen substituted analogue (S)-[18F]15 in normal brain. (S)-[18F]15 had imaging properties similar to those of (S)-[18F]FET in the DBT tumor model while (S)-[18F]14 afforded higher tumor to brain ratios due to much lower uptake by normal brain. These results have important implications for the future development of α-alkyl and α,α-dialkyl substituted amino acids for brain tumor imaging.
