The pentacyclic triterpene oleanolic acid (OA, 1) with known farnesoid X receptor (FXR) modulatory activity was modified at its C-3 position to find new FXR-interacting agents. A diverse substitution library of OA derivatives was constructed in silico through a 2D fingerprint similarity cluster strategy. With further docking analysis, four top-scored OA 3-O-ester derivatives were selected for synthesis. The bioassay results indicated that all four compounds 3 inhibited chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA)-induced FXR transactivation in a concentration-dependent mode. Among them 3b and 3d are more active than the parent compound OA. A molecular simulation study was performed to attempt to explain the structure-Activity relationship (SAR) and the antagonistic action. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on semi-synthetic pentacyclic triterpenoids with FXR-modulatory activities.

Boronic acid catalysis for mild and selective [3+2] dipolar cycloadditions to unsaturated carboxylic acids
Zheng, Hongchao,McDonald, Robert,Hall, Dennis G.
experimental part, p. 5454 - 5460 (2010/09/15)
Herein, the concept of boronic acid catalysis (BAC) for the activation of unsaturated carboxylic acids is applied in several classic dipolar [3 + 2] cycloadditions involving azides, nitrile oxides, and nitrones as partners. These cycloadditions can be used to produce pharmaceutically interesting, small heterocyclic products, such as triazoles, isoxazoles, and isoxazolidines. These cycloadducts are formed directly and include a free carboxylic acid functionality that can be employed for fur-ther transformations, thereby avoiding prior masking or functionalization. In all cases, BAC provides faster reactions, under milder conditions, with much improved product yields and regioselectivities. In some instances, such as triazole formation from the reaction of azides with 2-alkynoic acids, catalysis with ort/io- nitrophenylboronic acid circumvents the undesirable product decarboxylation observed when using thermal activation. By using NMR spectroscopic studies, the boronic acid catalyst was shown to provide activation by a LUMO-lowering effect in the unsaturated carboxylic acid, likely via a monoacylated hemiboronic ester intermediate.
Novel non-peptidic vinylsulfones targeting the S2 and S3 subsites of parasite cysteine proteases
Bryant, Clifford,Kerr, Iain D.,Debnath, Moumita,Ang, Kenny K.H.,Ratnam, Joseline,Ferreira, Rafaela S.,Jaishankar, Priyadarshini,Zhao, DongMei,Arkin, Michelle R.,McKerrow, James H.,Brinen, Linda S.,Renslo, Adam R.

We describe here the identification of non-peptidic vinylsulfones that inhibit parasite cysteine proteases in vitro and inhibit the growth of Trypanosoma brucei brucei parasites in culture. A high resolution (1.75 A) co-crystal structure of 8a bound to cruzain reveals how the non-peptidic P2/P3 moiety in such analogs bind the S2 and S3 subsites of the protease, effectively recapitulating important binding interactions present in more traditional peptide-based protease inhibitors and natural substrates.

The synthesis of a series of new 5-isoxazolpenicillins is described, which were obtained by coupling substituted isoxazoles with 6-APA. Concise large-scale synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition using copper(I) as catalyst was also investigated. Representative compounds were assayed for antimicrobial activities, showing satisfactory antimicrobial activities against Gram-negative bacteria.
