Herein, we report a new one-pot sequential method for SO2F2-mediated nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions starting from carboxylic acids. A mechanistic study revealed that SO2F2-mediated acid activation proceeds via the anhydride, which is then converted to the corresponding acyl fluoride. Tetrabutylammonium chloride or bromide accelerate the formation of acyl fluoride. Optimized halide-accelerated conditions were used to synthesize acyl fluorides in 30-80percent yields, and esters, amides, and thioesters in 72-96percent yields without reoptimization for each nucleophile.

Background: The 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO), previously known as the peripheral- type benzodiazepine receptor, plays a key role for the synthesis of neurosteroids by promoting transport of cholesterol from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane, which is the ratelimiting step in neurosteroid biosynthesis. Neurosteroids interact with nonbenzodiazepine site of GABAa receptor causing an anxiolytic effect without the side effects. Methods: Using the original peptide drug-based design strategy, the first putative dipeptide ligand of the TSPO N-carbobenzoxy-L-tryptophanyl-L-isoleucine amide (GD-23) was obtained. Molecular docking of GD-23 in the active pocket of the TSPO receptor using Glide software was carried out. The lead compounds GD-23 and its analogues were synthesized using activated succinimide esters coupling method. The anxiolytic activity of GD-23 and its analogues was investigated in vivo, using two validated behavioral tests, illuminated open field and elevated plus-maze. Results: The in vivo studies revealed that the following parameters are necessary for the manifestation of anxiolytic activity of new compounds: the L-configuration of tryptophan, the presence of an amide group at the C-terminus, the specific size of the N-acyl substituent at the Nterminus. Compound GD-23 (N-carbobenzoxy-L-tryptophanyl-L-isoleucine amide) demonstrated a high anxiolytic-like effect in the doses of 0.05-1.0 mg/kg i.p. comparable with that of diazepam. Compound GD-23 was also active in the open field test when was administered orally in the doses of 0.1-5.0 mg/kg. The involvement of TSPO receptor in the mechanism of anxiolytic-like activity of new compounds was proved by the antagonism of compound GD-23 with TSPO selective inhibitor PK11195 as well as with inhibitors of enzymes which are involved in the biosynthesis of neurosteroids, trilostane and finasteride. Conclusion: A series of N-acyl-tryptophanyl-containing dipeptides were designed and synthesized as 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) ligands. Using a drug-based peptide design method a series of the first dipeptide TSPO ligands have been designed and synthesized and their anxiolytic activity has been evaluated. In general, some of the compounds displayed a high level of anxiolytic efficacy comparable with that of diazepam. The involvement of TSPO receptor in the mechanism of anxiolytic activity of new compounds was proved using two methods. On this basis, the N-acyl-Ltryptophanyl- isoleucine amides could potentially be a novel class of TSPO ligands with anxiolytic activity.

In the present work we describe the synthesis and antiproliferative evaluation of a focused library of 30 novel oxazolidines designed by modification of N-substituent, by ring variation, by alkyl variation or by extension of the structure. It was noted that carbamate and N,O-aminal groups were essential for activity. In general, replacement of the phenyl ring with pyridinyl was not tolerated. However, the introduction of a second phenyl ring with an appropriate spacer at the 3- or 4-position of the first phenyl ring generally enhanced the cytotoxic profile. Among all the prepared compounds, 24 was the most potent compound found in this class, being active on four of five cancer cell lines and it was 5-fold and 10-fold more potent than the lead compounds against HL60 and JURKAT cells, respectively. In addition, it showed relevant activity against MCF-7 and HCT-116 cells, which were resistant to lead. Moreover, 24 showed little antiproliferative activity against VERO, indicating low toxicity to normal cells. Thus, this compound has the potential to be developed as an anticancer agent.

A one-pot oxidative transformation of aldehydes into hydroxamic acids by the use of an aqueous solution of hydroxylamine is reported. The methodology gives high yields and makes use of cheap, abundant and easily available reagents.
Metal-free oxidative amide formation with N-hydroxysuccinimide and hypervalent iodine reagents
Yao, Haoyi,Tang, Yun,Yamamoto, Kana
scheme or table, p. 5094 - 5098 (2012/10/08)
An oxidative amide formation using N-hydroxysuccinimide and hypervalent iodine reagents was developed. The method enables a wide range of aldehydes and amines to be coupled under mild reaction conditions providing amide in good to excellent yield. The radical species in the reaction mixture was observed for the first time using ESR measurement, and along with other mechanistic investigations, a plausible mechanism of the reaction was proposed.

Development of Potent and Selective CCK-A Receptor Agonists from Boc-CCK-4: Tetrapeptides Containing Lys(Nε)-Amide Residues

A series of Boc-CCK-4 derivatives represented by the general structure Boc-Trp-Lys(Nε-COR)-Asp-Phe-NH2, where R is an aromatic, heterocyclic, or aliphatic group, are potent and selective CCK-A receptor agonists.These amide-bearing compounds complement the previously described urea-based tetrapeptides (Shiosaki et al.J.Med.Chem. 1991,34,2837-2842); structure-activity studies revealed parallel as well as divergent trends between these two series.A significant correlation was observed between pancreatic binding affinity and the resonance constant R of the phenyl substituent in one particular series of derivatives.Sulfation of phenolic amides appended onto the ε-amino group of the lysine did not affect affinity for the CCK-A receptor in contrast to the 500-fold increase in binding potency observed upon sulfation of CCK-8, suggesting that the lysine appendage and the sulfated tyrosine in CCK-8, both key structural elements that impart high affinity for the CCK-A receptor, are interacting differently with the receptor.The amide-bearing tetrapeptides are full agonists relative to CCK-8 in stimulating pancreatic amylase release while being partial agonists in eliciting phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis.Both effects were blocked by selective CCK-A receptor antagonists
