Rationalizing the Origin of Solerone (5-Oxo-4-hexanolide): Biomimetic Synthesis and Identification of Key Metabolites in Sherry Wine

A biomimetic synthesis of solerone (5-oxo-4-hexanolide, 1) using both enzymatic and acid-catalyzed reactions was performed. Starting from L-glutamic acid 5-ethyl ester (2) enzymatic oxidative deamination followed by subsequent decarboxylation of the corresponding 2-oxoglutaric acid 5-ethyl ester (3) led to ethyl 4-oxobutanoate (4). In the presence of pyruvate, 4 served as key substrate for a novel acyloin condensation catalyzed by pyruvate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.1) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Finally, the resulting ethyl 4-hydroxy-5-oxo-hexanoate (5) was easily converted into solerone (1) in the presence of acid. The acyloin condensation of 3 with acetaldehyde to ethyl 5-hydroxy-4-oxohexanoate (6) revealed an alternative route to solerone (1). Acid-catalyzed lactonization of 6 produced 4-oxo-5-hexanolide (7) as well as 5 and 1 via keto-enol tautomerization. Confirming the relevance of the proposed biogenetic pathway, the solerone precursors 2-6 as well as δ-lactone 7 were identified in sherry by GC/MS analysis for the first time.

It has been demonstrated previously that the endogenous compound N-arachidonyl-glycine inhibits the glycine transporter GlyT2, stimulates glycinergic neurotransmission, and provides analgesia in animal models of neuropathic and inflammatory pain. However, it is a relatively weak inhibitor with an IC50 of 9 μM and is subject to oxidation via cyclooxygenase, limiting its therapeutic value. In this paper we describe the synthesis and testing of a novel series of monounsaturated C18 and C16 acyl-glycine molecules as inhibitors of the glycine transporter GlyT2. We demonstrate that they are up to 28 fold more potent that N-arachidonyl-glycine with no activity at the closely related GlyT1 transporter at concentrations up to 30 μM. This novel class of compounds show considerable promise as a first generation of GlyT2 transport inhibitors.

Since its discovery in 1938, hydroformylation has been thoroughly investigated and broadly applied in industry (>107 metric ton yearly). However, the ability to precisely control its regioselectivity with well-established Rh- or Co-catalysts has thus far proven elusive, thereby limiting access to many synthetically valuable aldehydes. Pd-catalysts represent an appealing alternative, yet their use remains sparse due to undesired side-processes. Here, we report a highly selective and exceptionally active catalyst system that is driven by a novel activation strategy and features a unique Pd(I)-Pd(I) mechanism, involving an iodide-assisted binuclear step to release the product. This method enables β-selective hydroformylation of a large range of alkenes and alkynes, including sensitive starting materials. Its utility is demonstrated in the synthesis of antiobesity drug Rimonabant and anti-HIV agent PNU-32945. In a broader context, the new mechanistic understanding enables the development of other carbonylation reactions of high importance to chemical industry.
