A step-wise synthetic approach is necessary to access γ-conjugates of folate: Folate-conjugated prodigiosenes
Figliola, Carlotta,Marchal, Estelle,Groves, Brandon R.,Thompson, Alison
, p. 14078 - 14092 (2019/05/21)
Despite the vast literature that describes reacting folic acid with a pharmacophore, this route is ineffective in providing the correct regioisomer of the resulting conjugate. We herein present a step-wise route to the preparation of nine folate conjugate

The mechanism of action of para-aminosalicylic acid (PAS), a drug used to treat drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB), has been confirmed through the first synthesis and biochemical characterization of its active metabolite 7. The synthesis features the coupling of N2-acetyl-6-formylpterin obtained from the degradation of folic acid and appropriately functionalized arylamines to form Schiff bases. The sequential chemoselective reduction of the imine and pterin ring led to the formation of dihydrofolate analogue 7 and two other dihydropteroate species.

Conjugation to folic acid is known to enhance the uptake of molecules by human cells that over-produce folate receptors. Variants of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase A) that have attenuated affinity for the endogenous ribonuclease inhibitor protein (

Two different methods for the synthesis of folic acid, which are suitable for the incorporation of compounds multiply labelled with stable isotopes, are described. The first method is based on the use of a novel reductive amination to link 2-acetyIamino-4-hydroxy-6-formylpteridine withp-aminobenzoyl-L-glutamic acid. The second method is based on the penultimate formation of an amide bond between Ar-2-acetyl-Ar-10-trifluoroacetyIpteroic acid and dimethyl L-glutamate. Both methods have been used to transform [13C6]aniline into folic acid, labelled with [13C6] in the p-aminobenzoate moiety, and [3,3,4,4-2H4]-L-glutamic acid into folic acid, labelled with [2H4] in the glutamate moiety. Doubly labelled [13C6,2H 4]-p-aminobenzoyl-L-glutamate has also been prepared by the former method.
Efficient syntheses of pyrofolic acid and pteroyl azide, reagents for the production of carboxyl-differentiated derivatives of folic acid
Luo, Jin,Smith, Michael D.,Lantrip, Douglas A.,Wang, Susan,Fuchs
, p. 10004 - 10013 (2007/10/03)
Reaction of folic acid (1) with excess trifluoroacetic anhydride provides access to both the previously unknown N10-(trifluoroacetyl)pyrrofolic acid (8) and pyrofolic acid (9). Reaction of either of these materials with hydrazine selectively affords pteroyl hydrazide (13), which may be oxidized to pteroyl azide (27) on a large scale (62% overall from I without the need for chromatography). Treatment of 27 with differentially protected glutamates provides a convenient and high-yielding synthesis of differentially protected, optically pure folates.
Synthesis and biological activity of novel folic acid analogues: Pteroyl- S-alkylhomocysteine sulfoximines
Harvison,Kalman
, p. 1227 - 1233 (2007/10/02)
The synthesis of a novel series of γ-substituted folic acid analogues, pteroyl-S-alkyl-DL-homocysteine (RS)-sulfoximines, and the corresponding S- methylhomocysteine sulfone is described. Side reactions of the sulfoximine groups of the amino acid ester reactants were considered. The correct structures of the isolated target compounds were confirmed by NMR and FAB/MS excluding other alternatives. The replacement of the γ-COOH of the glutamate moiety of folic acid with S-alkylsulfoximine groups of S-methylsulfone did not affect the substrate activity of the vitamin for dihydrofolate reductase. The resulting tetrahydrofolate analogues could serve as cofactors for the thymidylate synthase cycle of murine leukemia L1210 cells in situ. The analogues inhibited the growth of these cells in culture with 2 orders of magnitude lower IC50 values [(2-4) x 10-4 M] than the parent folic acid.
