Optimising inhibitors of trypanothione reductase using solid-phase chemistry

A series of inhibitors of the enzyme trypanothione reductase has been identified using directed solid-phase chemistry. The compounds were based on a series of polyamine scaffolds and used the natural product kukoamine A as the lead structure. A compound with a K(i) of 76 nM was identified, although somewhat surprisingly the compound appeared to be noncompetitive in nature. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
The synthesis of symmetrical spermine conjugates using solid-phase chemistry

, p. 1751 - 1756 (2007/10/03)
The utility of spermine, selectively functionalised and immobilised on a solid support by means of the Wang 'oxycarbonyl' linker is demonstrated by the solid-phase synthesis of a number of spermine conjugates including the natural product and potent antihypertensive agent kukoamine. The synthesis opens up the area of solid-phase spermine chemistry and library generation based on the symmetrical spermine scaffold.
