The present report describes an organocatalytic cascade reaction between 2-alkylidene benzo[b]thiophenone derivatives and enones in the presence of the Cinchona alkaloid amine. Spirobenzothiophenonic cyclohexane derivatives containing three stereocenters were prepared via one-step synthesis in yields ranging from 88 to 96% and in enantioselectivities (enantiomeric excess (ee)) ranging from 85 to 97%, with diastereoselectivities of approximately 14/2/1. Therefore, this method provides an efficient route for the synthesis of a new class of optically active 2-spirobenzothiophenones.

The asymmetric epoxidation of α,β-unsaturated ketones has been achieved by using functional and readily accessible primary-secondary diamines as the catalysts, giving the useful alkyl epoxy products with good yields and high enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). Copyright

The C terminus of endomorphin-2 (EM-2) analogues (Tyr-Pro-Phe-NH-X) was modified with aromatic, heteroaromatic, or aliphatic groups (X = phenethyl,benzyl, phenyl, naphthyl, pyridyl, quinolyl, isoquinolyl, tert-butyl, cyclohexyl, or adamantyl; 3-18) to study their effect on opioid activity. Only 9 (1-naphthyl), 11 (5-quinolyl), 16 (cyclohexyl), and 18 (2-adamantyl) exhibited μ-opioid receptor affinity in the nanomolar range (Ki = 2.41-6.59 nM), which, however, was 3-to 10-fold less than the parent peptide. Replacement of Tyr1 by Dmt (2′,6′-dimethyl-L-tyrosine) (19-32) exerted profound effects: (i) acquisition of high μ-opioid receptor affinity (Ki = 0.11-0.52 nM) except 23 (Ph); (ii) presence of potent functional μ-opioid receptor agonism (IC50 1]EM-2), 27 (1-naphthyl), 29 (5-quinolyl), and 32 (5-isolquinolyl); (iii) association of weak δ-opioid antagonist activity (pA2 = 5.41-7.18) except 19 ([Dmt1]EM-2), 20 (H), 27 (1-naphthyl), and in particular 29 (5-quinolyl) with its potent δ-agonism (IC50 = 0.62 nM, pA2 = 5.88); (iv) production of antinociception after ic administration of 32 (5-isoquinolyl) in mice, a bioactivity absent in the corresponding Tyr1 analogue (14); and (v) preferential cis orientation (cis/trans = 3:2 to 7:3) at the Dmt-Pro amide bond, in contrast to the Tyr-Pro amide trans orientation (cis/trans = 1:2 to 1:3). Thus, [Dmt1]EM-2 analogues with hydrophobic C-terminal extensions provide model compounds with potent μ-opioid receptor bioactivity and dual functional agonism.

The preparation of solid-phase active esters from a new pyrazolone linker resin is described. N-Acylation using this resin provides various amide products with a high conversion rate and good purity under mild conditions. The polymer-bound pyrazolone linkers are stable in the reaction conditions and are resistant to hydrolysis. Moreover, this resin can also be reused repeatedly without a loss of reactivity.
Novel syntheses of enantiopure hexahydroimidazo[1,5-b]isoquinolines and tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-b]isoquinolin-1(5H)-ones via iminium cation cyclizations

Condensations of chiral diamines 11a-c with benzotriazole and formaldehyde gave benzotriazolyl intermediates 12a-c; similar condensations of α-amino-amides 10a-c with benzotriazole and paraformaldehyde gave 14a-c. Subsequent treatment of 12a-c and 14a-c with AlCl3 led to enantiopure tricyclic 1,2,3,5,10,10a-hexahydroimidazo[1,5-b]isoquinolines 1a-c and 2,3,10,10a-tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-b]isoquinolin-1(5H)-ones 15a-c, respectively, via Lewis acid promoted iminium cation cyclizations.

L-phenylalanine cyclohexylamide: A simple and convenient auxiliary for the synthesis of optically pure α,α-disubstituted (R)- and (S)-amino acids

This work describes L-phenylalanine cyclohexylamide (5c) as a simple, cheap, and powerful chiral auxiliary for the synthesis of a series of optically pure α,α-disubstituted (R)- and (S)-amino acids of type 1, such as (R)- and (S)-2-methyl-phenylalanine (1a), (R)- and (S)-2-methyl-2-phenylglycine (1b), and (R)- and (S)-2-methylvaline (1c). These amino acids were efficiently transformed into the suitably protected and activated amino-acid building blocks (R)- and (S)-12b and (R)- and (S)-12c which are ready for incorporation into peptides by solution or solid-phase techniques. Based on the crystal structures of 6b, 6c, and 7a belonging to the diastereoisomeric peptides series 6 and 7, the absolute configurations of each member of the series were determined. β-Turn geometries of type II' and I were observed for 6b and 7a, respectively, whereas 6c crystallized in an extended conformation. The impacts of side-chain variation on conformation and crystal packing of these triamides are discussed.
