Paragraph 00274; 00296, (2019/08/26)
The present disclosure relates to chemical compounds that modulate proteasome activity, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and use of these compounds and compositions for the treatment of disorders of uncontrolled cellular proliferation such as, for example, a cancer. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

Allosteric regulators of clinically important enzymes are gaining popularity as alternatives to competitive inhibitors. This is also the case for the proteasome, a major intracellular protease and a target of anti-cancer drugs. All clinically used proteasome inhibitors bind to the active sites in catalytic chamber and display a competitive mechanism. Unfortunately, inevitable resistance associated with this type of inhibition drives the search for non-competitive agents. The multisubunit and multicatalytic “proteolytic machine” such as the proteasome is occasionally found to be affected by agents with other primary targets. For example the immunosuppressive agent rapamycin has been shown to allosterically inhibit the proteasome albeit at levels far higher than its mTOR related efficacy. As part of an ongoing program to search for novel proteasome-targeting pharmacophores, we identified the binding domain of rapamycin as required for proteasome inhibition even without the macrocyclic context of the parent compound. By subsequent structure-activity relationship studies, we generated a pipecolic ester derivative compound 3 representing a new class of proteasome inhibitors. Compound 3 affects the core proteasome activities and proliferation of cancer cells with low micromolar/high nanomolar efficacy. Molecular modeling, atomic force microscopy imaging and biochemical data suggest that compound 3 binds into one of intersubunit pockets in the proteasomal α ring and destabilizes the α face and the gate. The α face is used as a docking area for proteasome-regulating protein modules and the gate is critical for controlling access to the catalytic chamber. Thus, the pipecolic ester template elicits a new and attractive mechanism for proteasome inhibition distinct from classical competitive drugs.

We developed two efficient practical methods for esterification, amide formation, and thioesterification between acid chlorides and alcohols, amines, thiols, respectively. The present mild and robust reaction was performed by two separate methods both by combining cheap and readily available amines, N-methylimidazole, and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA). Method A uses catalytic N-methylimidazole and TMEDA with an equimolar amount of K2CO3, whereas Method B uses equimolar amounts of N-methylimidazole and TMEDA. The salient features are as follows. (i) With regard to reactivity, Method B was superior to Method A for esterification and thioesterification, whereas cost-effective Method A was superior to Method B for amide formation. (ii) Amide formation proceeded smoothly between acid chlorides and less nucleophilic and stereocongested amines such as 2,6-dichloroaniline. (iii) This protocol was applied to the successful synthesis of two agrochemicals, bromobutide and carpropamid.
Water solvent method for esterification and amide formation between acid chlorides and alcohols promoted by combined catalytic amines: Synergy between N-methylimidazole and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA)

An efficient method for esterification between acid chlorides and alcohols in water as solvent has been developed by combining the catalytic amines, N-methylimidazole and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA). The present Schotten-Baumann-type reaction was performed by maintaining the pH at around 11.5 using a pH controller to prevent the decomposition of acid chlorides and/or esters and to facilitate the condensation. The choice of catalysts (0.1 equiv.) was crucial: the combined use of N-methylimidazole and TMEDA exhibited a dramatic synergistic effect. The catalytic amines have two different roles: (i) N-methylimidazole forms highly reactive ammonium intermediates with acid chlorides and (ii) TMEDA acts as an effective HCl binder. The production of these intermediates was rationally supported by a careful 1H NMR monitoring study. Related amide formation was also achieved between acid chlorides and primary or secondary amines, including less nucleophilic or water-soluble amines such as 2-(or 4-)chloroaniline, the Weinreb N-methoxyamine, and 2,2-dimethoxyethanamine.
Pd/C(en)-catalyzed chemoselective hydrogenation with retention of the N-Cbz protective group and its scope and limitations

A chemoselective method for the hydrogenation of acetylene, olefin, azide, nitro and benzyl ester functionalities with retention of the aliphatic N-Cbz group was established. The chemoselectivity was accomplished by using a combination of 5% Pd/C-ethylenediamine [5% Pd/C(en)] and THF (or 1,4-dioxane) as a solvent, and the scope and limitations of this methodology were investigated. These results reinforce the utility of N-Cbz protective groups in synthetic chemistry, especially in peptide synthesis. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
Facile new method for preparation of optically active protected proline
Yamaguchi, Jun-Ichi,Ueki, Masaaki
, p. 621 - 622 (2007/10/03)
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.
