N-terminal thiourea-modified l-Leu-based peptide {(3,5-diCF3Ph)NHC(=S)-(l-Leu-l-Leu-Ac5c)2-OMe} with five-membered ring α,α-disubstituted α-amino acids (Ac5c) catalyzed a highly enantioselective 1,4-addition reaction between β-nitrostyrene and dimethyl malonate. The enantioselective reaction required only 0.5 mol % chiral peptide-catalyst in the presence of iPr2EtN (2.5 equiv.), and gave a 1,4-adduct with 93 % ee of an 85 % yield. As Michael acceptors, various β-nitrostyrene derivatives such as methyl, p-fluoro, p-bromo, and p-methoxy substituents on the phenyl group, 2-furyl, 2-thiophenyl, and naphthyl β-nitroethylenes could be applied. Furthermore, various alkyl malonates and cyclic β-keto-esters could be used as Michael donors. It became clear that the length of the peptide chain, a right-handed helical structure, amide N?Hs, and the N-terminal thiourea moiety play crucial roles in asymmetric induction.

A series of imidacloprid (IMI) derivatives with an alkylated imidazolidine ring were asymmetrically synthesized to evaluate their insecticidal activity against adult female housefly, Musca domestica, and affinity to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor of the flies. The bulkier the alkyl group, the lower was the receptor affinity, but the derivatives methylated and ethylated at the R-5-position of the imidazolidine ring were equipotent to the unsubstituted compound. Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis of the receptor affinity demonstrated that the introduction of a substituent into the imidazolidine ring was fundamentally disadvantageous, but the introduction of a substituent at the R-5-position was permissible in the case of its small size. The binding model of the synthesized derivatives with the receptor supported the QSAR analysis, indicating the existence of space for a short alkyl group around the R-5-position in the ligand-binding site. In addition, positive correlation was observed between the insecticidal activity and receptor affinity, suggesting that the receptor affinity was the primary factor in influencing the insecticidal activity even if the imidazolidine ring was modified.

A library of oligomeric compounds was synthesized based on the imidazole-4, 5-dicarboxylic acid scaffold along with amino acid esters and chiral diamines derived from amino acids. The final compounds incorporate nonpolar amino acids (Leu, Phe, Trp), polar amino acids (Ser, Asp, Arg), and neutral amino acids (Gly, Ala), and were designed to be useful in screening for inhibitors of protein-protein interactions. Many of the protected and deprotected oligomers show evidence of conformational isomers persistent at room temperature in aqueous solution. A total of 317 final oligomers, out of 441 targeted compounds, were obtained in high analytical purity and of sufficient quantity to submit them for high-throughput screening as part of the NIH Roadmap.

Isoselenocyanates derived from Boc/Z-amino acids are prepared by the reaction of the corresponding isonitriles with selenium powder in presence of triethylamine at reflux. The utility of these new classes of isoselenocyanates in the preparation of selenoureidodipeptidomimetics possessing both amino as well as carboxy termini has been accomplished. The 1H NMR analysis confirmed that the protocol involving the conversion of isonitriles to isoselenocyanates and their use as coupling agents in assembling selenoureido derivatives is free from racemization.

Page 16, (2010/02/05)
Bradykinin B1-receptor antagonists of formula are disclosed. The compounds are useful for treating diseases associated with inappropriate bradykinin receptor activity, such as diabetic vasculopathy, inflammation, pain, hyperalgesia, asthma, rhinitis, septic shock, atherosclerosis and multiple sclerosis. Pyrimidines, triazines, and anilines in which Q is imidazolyl or pyrrolyl are particularly preferred.

Inhibitors of acyl-CoA:cholesterol O-acyl transferase (ACAT) as hypocholesterolemic agents. 8. Incorporation of amide or amine functionalities into a series of disubstituted ureas and carbamates. Effects of ACAT inhibition in vitro and efficacy in vivo

, p. 1810 - 1822 (2007/10/02)
A series of disubstituted ureas containing amide or amine groups was prepared and evaluated for their ability to inhibit acyl-CoA:cholesterol O- acyl transferase in vitro and to lower plasma total cholesterol in a variety of cholesterol-fed rat models in vivo. The presence of polar or ionizable functionalities within this class of compounds may impart greater aqueous solubility to those compounds and thus allow improved transport to the enzyme location within the intestinal enterocyte. Compounds from this class exhibit good cholesterol lowering in a chronic cholesterol-fed rat model of hypercholesterolemia even when dosed in an aqueous vehicle. In general, the amine-containing compounds were more potent and efficacious than the amides in the acute rat model of hypercholesterolemia. Further structure-activity relationship studies showed that the preferred position of the amide/amine group was β to the urea moiety and not α, and that in this series, the presence of a secondary amine (or amide) proton is required for good in vitro potency. One of these compounds, 9n(-), lowered plasma total cholesterol (- 47%) and elevated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (+256%) when dosed in an aqueous vehicle to rats with preestablished hypercholesterolemia.
