We designed and synthesised peptides conjugated with proline linkers and ruthenium photocatalysts. These peptides were used as substrates to evaluate the photocatalyst-proximity dependences of candidates for tyrosine labelling reagents. The 1-methyl-4-aryl-urazole (MAUra) structure was found to be a novel tyrosyl radical trapping agent to label tyrosine residues effectively under the conditions where the ruthenium photocatalyst and tyrosine were in close proximity. Using a ruthenium photocatalyst conjugated to a carbonic anhydrase ligand, the target protein in a complex protein mixture was labelled with remarkable target selectivity by azide- or desthiobiotin-conjugated MAUra derivatives.

The di-tert-butyl-di-p-nitrophenyl ester of hydrazinetetracarboxylic acid was prepared and shown to be useful in the preparation of urazoles (i.e., 1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-diones), by reaction with a primary amine using either n-BuLi or pyridine as base, d

Betulin, a naturally occurring abundant triterpene is converted in four steps to 3,28-di-O-acetyllupa-12,18-diene. When various 4-substituted urazoles were oxidized to the corresponding urazines with iodobenzene diacetate in the presence of 3,28-di-O-acetyllupa-12,18-diene, new heterocyclic betulin derivatives were produced. These betulin derivatives were examined in a microplate assay at 50 μM for their ability to inhibit the growth of Leishmania donovani axenic amastigotes, a species that causes the fatal visceral leishmaniasis. GI50 (concentration for 50% growth inhibition) values of the most effective compounds were determined and their cytotoxicity on the human macrophage cell line THP-1 evaluated. The anti-leishmanial activity on L. donovani amastigotes growing in macrophages was also examined. The heterocycloadduct between 3,28-di-O-acetyllupa-12,18-diene and 4-methylurazine was the most effective derivative with an GI50 = 8.9 μM against L. donovani amastigotes.
