Feeding studies indicate a possible synthetic pattern for the N-terminal cis-aminocyclopentane carboxylic acid (ACPC) and suggest an unusual source of the high-carbon sugar skeleton of amipurimycin (APM). The biosynthetic gene cluster of APM was identified and confirmed by in vivo experiments. A C9 core intermediate was discovered from null mutants of ACPC pathway, and an ATP-grasp enzyme (ApmA8) was reconstituted in vitro for ACPC loading. Our observations allow a first proposal of the APM biosynthetic pathway.

Based on the lipase-catalysed kinetic resolution of the silyloxyalcohol (1RS,2SR)-5 by transesterification with vinyl acetate in the presence of lipase from Pseudomonas cepacia a synthesis of both enantiomers of the β-amino acid cispentacin (1R,2S)-1 and (1S,2R)-1 using simple functional group interconversions is described.
The N-Hydroxymethyl Group as a Traceless Activating Group for the CAL-B-Catalysed Ring Cleavage of β-Lactams: A Type of Two-Step Cascade Reaction

An efficient enzymatic two-step cascade procedure has been devised for rapid access to diverse amino acids from N-hydroxymethyl-β-lactams; representative amino acids include the antifungal agent cispentacin, intermediates for the taxol side-chain, and assorted cathepsin inhibitors. When CAL-B-catalysed hydrolyses of racemic N-hydroxymethyl-β-lactams were performed with H2O (0.5 equiv.) in iPr2O at 60 °C, relatively quick (vs. non-activated counterparts) and enantioselective (E > 200) ring cleavage reactions took place. As the ring-opened amino acids formed, the hydroxymethyl group, as a traceless activating group, underwent spontaneous in situ degradation. Consequently, the desired β-amino acid and unreacted N-hydroxymethyl-β-lactam enantiomers (ee > 95 %) were formed. The formation of polymers, induced by liberation of formaldehyde, was successfully restricted by the addition of benzylamine as a capture agent, to the enzymatic reactions. An efficient enzymatic two-step cascade procedure was devised for CAL-B-catalysed hydrolysis of racemic N-hydroxymethyl-β-lactams. Conditions in which the hydroxymethyl group serves as a traceless activating group (E > 200), giving desired β-amino acid along with unreacted starting lactam enantiomers (ee > 95 %) were identified; polymerization was controlled by addition benzylamine addition.

The invention of new strategies for the design of protein-mimetic oligomers that manifest the folding encoded in natural amino acid sequences is a significant challenge. In contrast to the α-helix, mimicry of protein β-sheets is less understood. We report
Enantiomeric discrimination of cyclic β-amino acids using (18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid as a chiral NMR solvating agent
Chisholm, Cora D.,Fueloep, Ferenc,Forro, Eniko,Wenzel, Thomas J.
experimental part, p. 2289 - 2294 (2010/11/05)
(18-Crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid is an excellent chiral NMR solvating agent for cyclic β-amino acids with cyclopentane, cyclohexane, cycloheptane, cyclopentene, cyclohexene, bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, and bicyclo[2.2.1]heptene rings. The crown ether was added to the neutral β-amino acids in methanol-d4. A neutralization reaction between the crown ether and β-amino acid forms the ammonium ion needed for favorable association. Enantiomeric discrimination of the two hydrogen atoms α to the amine and carboxylic acid moieties of the β-amino acid was observed with every substrate studied. Trends in the order of the enantiomeric discrimination of certain hydrogen atoms for substrates of similar structures correlate with the absolute configuration.
Vapour-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis of β-lactams in a solvent-free system
Forro, Eniko,Fueloep, Ferenc
, p. 1005 - 1009 (2008/09/21)
A new, solvent-free, vapour-assisted method, developed for the synthesis of carbocyclic cis β-amino acid enantiomers through the Candida antarctica lipase B-catalysed enantioselective (E >200) hydrolysis of β-lactams with 0.5 equiv of H2O at 70 °C, has been demonstrated to be applicable on a preparative scale to produce (±)-2 (the starting racemate for cispentacin), (±)-3 (the starting racemate for 4-tert-butylcispentacin, a new cispentacin analogue) and (±)-7 (the starting racemate for 1,4-ethylene-bridged cispentacin).

, p. 433 - 436 (2007/10/03)
A series of novel β-amino acids has been synthesized and tested for their in vitro antifungal activity against Candida albicans. A steep SAR was observed. β-Amino acid 21 (BAY 10-8888/PLD-118) revealed the most favourable activity-tolerability profile and was selected for clinical studies as a novel antifungal for the oral treatment of yeast infections.
The use of enantiomerically pure ketene dithioacetal bis(sulfoxides) in highly diastereoselective intramolecular nitrone cycloadditions. Application in the total synthesis of the beta-amino acid (-)-cispentacin and the first asymmetric synthesis of cis-(3R,4R)-4-amino-pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid.

Intramolecular 1,3-dipolar nitrone cycloaddition onto an enantiomerically pure ketene dithioacetal dioxide using a three-carbon tether gave the corresponding 5,5-disubstituted isoxazolidine as a single diastereomer in good yield. This reaction has been used as the key step in an asymmetric synthesis of the naturally occurring antibiotic, (-)-cispentacin. An asymmetric synthesis of 4-amino-pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid has also been carried out using the intramolecular nitrone cycloaddition as the stereocontrolling step.
