An improved synthesis of rupintrivir (AG7088) was accomplished using three amino acids (l-glutamic acid, d-4-fluorophenylalanine, and l-valine) as the building blocks. The key fragment ketomethylene dipeptide isostere was constructed with the valine derivative and phenylpropionic acid derivative, followed by coupling with a lactam derivative and an isoxazole acid chloride to provide AG7088 totally in eight steps.

The proteolytic processing of polyproteins by the 3CL protease of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus is essential for the viral propagation. A series of tripeptide α,β-unsaturated esters and ketomethylene isosteres, including AG7088, are synthesized and assayed to target the 3CL protease. Though AG7088 is inactive (IC50 > 100 μM), the ketomethylene isosteres and tripeptide α,β-unsaturated esters containing both P1 and P2 phenylalanine residues show modest inhibitory activity (IC50 = 11-39 μM). The Phe-Phe dipeptide inhibitors 18a-e are designed on the basis of computer modeling of the enzyme-inhibitor complex. The most potent inhibitor 18c with an inhibition constant of 0.52 μM is obtained by condensation of the Phe-Phe dipeptide α,β-unsaturated ester with 4-(dimethylamino)cinnamic acid. The cell-based assays also indicate that 18c is a nontoxic anti-SARS agent with an EC50 value of 0.18 μM.

Cross-ester condensation between N-protected amino acid ester and the lithium enolate prepared from alkyl acetate gave the corresponding β-ketoester in high yield without the formation of the tertiary alcohol that is commonly seen as by-product. This inte

A simple, stereoselective synthesis of ketomethylene dipeptide isosteres
Hoffman, Robert V.,Tao, Junhua
, p. 7119 - 7126 (2007/10/03)
An exceedingly simple, general, and stereoselective method for the preparation of ketomethylene dipeptide isosteres (5-(carbobenzyloxyamino)-2-alkyl-γ-ketoesers) from Cbz-protected amino acids and scalemic-2-triflyloxy esters has been developed. The method is short (three steps), efficient, and highly diastereoselective and enantioselective.
