Aziridine analogues of diaminopimelic acid (DAP) have been prepared stereoselectively for the first time and evaluated as inhibitors of DAP epimerase. (2R,3S,3′S)-3-(3′-Aminopropane)aziridine-2,3′- dicarboxylate 4 was synthesised and shown to be a reversible inhibitor of DAP epimerase with an IC50 value of 2.88 mM. (2S,4S)- and (2S,4R)-2-(4-Amino-4-carboxybutyl)aziridine-2-carboxylic acid (LL-azi-DAP 14 and DL-azi-DAP 29) were made as pure diastereomers, and both were shown to be irreversible inhibitors of DAP epimerase. LL-Azi-DAP 14 selectively binds to Cys-73 of the enzyme active site whereas DL-azi-DAP 29 binds to Cys-217 via attack of sulfhydryl on the methylene of the inhibitor aziridine ring. These observations are consistent with the two base mechanism proposed for the epimerisation of LL-DAP 1 and meso-DAP 2 by DAP epimerase. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2005.

Following the development of raltitrexed, the synthesis of nonpolyglutamatable inhibitors of TS that do not use the reduced folate carrier (RFC) for cellular entry should provide compounds which overcome mechanisms of resistance to folate-based inhibitors

Several novel antifolates, derivatives of 2-desamino-2-methyl-N10-propargyl-5,8-dideazafolic acid, were synthesised as inhibitors of thymidylate synthase (TS) and antitumour agents. This was accomplished by first developing routes to the key in

Treatment of L-N-protected 2-amino-5-bromopentanoic acid ester, which was prepared from protected L-glutamic acid, with sodium hydride in tetrahydrofuran (THF) proceeded to give the corresponding protected L-proline in high yield. On the other hand, the reaction of 2-aminobutyric acid derivative with sodium hydride gave the 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid derivative.
