The flexible backbone of aminoethylglycine (aeg) PNA upon substitution becomes sterically constrained to enable conformational pre-organization for preferential binding to DNA or RNA. The bulkygem-dimethyl (gdm) substituent on carbons adjacent to thet-amide sidechain either at Cα (glycyl) or Cβ/Cγ (aminoethylene) sides may influence theZ/Erotamer ratio arising from a restricted rotation around thet-amide bond. Employing 2D NMR (NOESY), it is shown here that the Cα-gdm-PNA-T monomer exhibits exclusively theZ-rotamer, while the Cβ-gdm-PNA-T monomer shows only theE-rotamer. The unsubstitutedaeg-PNA-T and Cγ-gdm-PNA-T monomers display a mixture ofZ/Erotamers. The rotamers witht-amide carbonyl pointing towards thegem-dimethyl group always prevailed. The results are supported by computational studies that suggested that the preferred rotamers are the outcome of a net energetic benefit from the stabilising n-π* interactions of carbonyls (amide backbone andt-amide sidechain), and C-H?O interactions and the destabilising steric clash ofgem-dimethyl groups with the t-amido methylene group. TheE-rotamer structure in Cγ-gdmis also characterised by X-ray crystallography. The exclusiveE-rotamer for the Cβ-gdmmonomer seen in solution here is the first such example among several modified PNA monomers. Since the conformation of the sidechain is important for inducing base stacking and effective base pairing, the exclusiveE-rotamer in the Cβ-gdmmonomer may have significance in the properties of the derived PNA?:?DNA/RNA duplexes with allE-rotamers.

Emerging infectious diseases like those caused by arboviruses such as Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) pose a serious threat to public health systems. Development of medical countermeasures against emerging infectious diseases are of utmost importance. In this work, an acrylate and vinyl sulfone-based chemical series was investigated as promising starting scaffolds against VEEV and as inhibitors of the cysteine protease domain of VEEV's nonstructural protein 2 (nsP2). Primary screen and dose response studies were performed to evaluate the potency and cytotoxicity of the compounds. The results provide structural insights into a new class of potent nonpeptidic covalent inhibitors of nsP2 cysteine protease represented by compound 11 (VEEV TrD, EC50= 2.4 μM (HeLa), 1.6 μM (Vero E6)). These results may facilitate the evolution of the compounds into selective and broad-spectrum anti-alphaviral drug leads.

A copper(I)-catalyzed synthesis of substituted dihydropyrimidin-4-ones from propargyl amides via the formation of ketenimine intermediate has been successfully developed; the synthesis afforded good isolated yields (80-95%). The mild reaction conditions at room temperature allow the reaction to proceed to completion in a few hours without altering the stereochemistry. Further, by involving a variety of reactive nucleophiles, the obtained substituted dihydropyrimidin-4-ones were elegantly transformed into the corresponding β- and β3-amino acid analogues.

Human deoxyuridine triphosphatase (dUTPase) inhibition is a promising approach to enhance the efficacy of thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitor based chemotherapy. In this study, we describe the discovery of a novel class of human dUTPase inhibitors based on the conformation restriction strategy. On the basis of the X-ray cocrystal structure of dUTPase and its inhibitor compound 7, we designed and synthesized two conformation restricted analogues, i.e., compounds 8 and 9. These compounds exhibited increased in vitro potency compared with the parent compound 7. Further structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies identified a compound 43 with the highest in vitro potency (IC50 = 39 nM, EC50 = 66 nM). Furthermore, compound 43 had a favorable oral PK profile and exhibited potent antitumor activity in combination with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in the MX-1 breast cancer xenograft model. These results suggested that a dUTPase inhibitor may have potential for clinical usage.

Mild, efficient and racemization-free synthesis of N-protected α, β-unsaturated γ-amino esters with unprecedented high E- stereoselectivity is described. This method is found to be compatible with Boc-, Fmoc- and other side chain protecting groups. The crystal conformations of the vinylogous γ-amino esters in monomers and in homo- and mixed dipeptides are studied. Further, the vinylogous homo-dipeptide showed a β-sheet conformation, while mixed α- and α,β-unsaturated γ-hybrid dipeptide adapted an irregular structure in single crystals.
