A new synthesis of alkaloid (S)-3-hydroxypiperidin-2-one and its O-TBS protected derivative

(Chemical Equation Presented) From the known lactone (S)-4, easily derived from L-glutamic acid, a scalable approach to chiral building block O-silylated 3-hydroxypiperidin-2-one 3 and alkaloid 1 was achieved in five and six-steps respectively. The key st

MODULATORS OF G-PROTEIN COUPLED RECEPTORS

This disclosure features chemical entities (e.g., a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or hydrate and/or prodrug of the compound) that modulate (e.g., agonize or partially agonize or antagonize) glucagon?like peptide?1 receptor ("GLP?1R") and/or the gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor ("GIPR"). The chemical entities are useful, e.g., for treating a subject (e.g., a human) having a disease, disorder, or condition in which modulation (e.g., agonism, partial agonism or antagonism) of GLP?1R and/or GIPR activities is benficial for the treatment or prevention of the underlying pathology and/or symptoms and/or progression of the disease, disorder, or condition. In some embodiments, the modulation results in an enhancment of (e.g., an increase in) existing levels (e.g., normal or below normal levels) of GLP?1R and/or GIPR activity (e.g., signaling). In some embodiments, the chemical entities described herein further modulate (e.g., attenuate, uncouple) -arrestin signaling relative to what is observed with the native ligand. This disclosure also features compositions as well as other methods of using and making the said chemical entities.

Combination strategy using pure enzymes and whole cells as biocatalysts for the preparation of 2-hydroxyesters and lactones from 2-oxoglutaric acid

An innovative combination strategy that uses pure enzymes and whole microbial cells in the same process was used to prepare enantiomerically pure 3-carboxyalkyl-γ-butyrolactones and several alkyl esters of 2-hydroxyglutarate from 2-oxoglutaric acid. An innovative combination strategy that uses pure enzymes and whole microbial cells in the same process was used to prepare enantiomerically pure 3-carboxyalkyl-γ-butyrolactones and several alkyl esters of 2-hydroxyglutarates from 2-oxoglutaric acid. The method involves two consecutive biocatalytic steps. The first step, which converts the 2-oxoglutaric acid into the corresponding dialkyl esters, was catalyzed by a lipase. Then in the second step, by microbial reduction of the dialkyl-2-oxoglutarates, it is possible to obtain 3-carboxyalkyl-γ- butyrolactones or 2-hydroxyesters depending on the length of the chain in the alkyl moiety of the esters and on the fresh or lyophilized status of the cells.
