An asymmetric transformation from L-histidine to D-His was achieved by using salicylaldehyde as a catalyst for epimerization, and (2R,3R)-tartaric acid as a resolving agent, in acetic acid.Treatment of the obtained salt with triethylamine in methanol gave D-His with 100percent optical purity in 95percent yield based on the starting L-His.
Reduction potential of histidine free radicals: A pulse radiolysis study

The technique of pulse radiolysis has been used to demonstrate that all histidine free radicals (designated His.+) produced by oxidation of histidine by Br2.- radical anions can oxidise the water soluble vitamin E analogue, Trolox C (k = 1.0 ± 0.2 × 109 dm3 mol-1 s-1 at pH 6.95). It has also been shown that His.+ radicals can react with tryptophan in electron transfer equilibria involving both His.+ and Trp.+ species over the pH range 6.4-9.0. The ΔE values [E(Trp.+/Trp) - E(His.+/His)] range from -140 to -161 mV and indicate an E7(His.+/His) value of 1170 mV [based on E7(Trp.+/Trp) = 1015 mV at pH 7]. The effect of pH on E(His.+/His) was accounted for by assuming that His.+ can deprotonate to yield a bi-allylic free radical, designated His (-H+).. The pKa for this dissociation was estimated to be in the range 5-7. The implications of the relatively high reduction potential for His.+ in its possible participation in the mechanism of action of non-heme metalloenzymes is discussed.

In order to use the enantioseparation capability of cationic cyclodextrin and to combine the advantages of capillary electrochromatography (CEC) with open-tubular (OT) column, in this study, a new OT-CEC, coated with cationic cyclodextrin (1-allylimidazolium-β-cyclodextrin [AI-β-CD]) as chiral stationary phase (CSP), was prepared and applied for enantioseparation. Synthesized AI-β-CD was characterized by infrared (IR) spectrometry and mass spectrometry (MS). The preparation conditions for the AI-β-CD-coated column were optimized with the orthogonal experiment design L9(34). The column prepared was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and elemental analysis (EA). The results showed that the thickness of stationary phase in the inner surface of the AI-β-CD-coated columns was about 0.2 to 0.5?μm. The AI-β-CD content in stationary phase based on the EA was approximately 2.77?mmol·m?2. The AI-β-CD-coated columns could separate all 14 chiral compounds (histidine, lysine, arginine, glutamate, aspartic acid, cysteine, serine, valine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, salbutamol, atenolol, ibuprofen, and napropamide) successfully in the study and exhibit excellent reproducibility and stability. We propose that the column, coated with AI-β-CD, has a great potential for enantioseparation in OT-CEC.

Three new chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for high-performance liquid chromatography were prepared from R-(3,3'-halogen substituted-1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6 (halogen = Cl, Br and I). The experimental results showed that R-(3,3'-dibromo-1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6 (CSP-1) possesses more prominent enantioselectivity than the two other halogen-substituted crown ether derivatives. All twenty-one α-amino acids have different degrees of separation on R-(3,3'-dibromo-1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6-based CSP-1 at room temperature. The enantioselectivity of CSP-1 is also better than those of some commercial R-(1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6 derivatives. Both the separation factors (α) and the resolution (Rs) are better than those of commercial crown ether-based CSPs [CROWNPAK CR(+) from Daicel] under the same conditions for asparagine, threonine, proline, arginine, serine, histidine and valine, which cannot be separated by commercial CR(+). This study proves the commercial usefulness of the R-(3,3'-dibromo-1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6 chiral stationary phase.

In this communication, we report the design, synthesis and in vitro antimicrobial activity of ultra short peptidomimetics. Besides producing promising antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), the dipeptidomimetics exhibited high antifungal activity against C. neoformans with IC50 values in the range of 0.16-19 μg mL-1. The most potent analogs exhibited 4-fold higher activity than the currently used drug amphotericin B, with no apparent cytotoxicity in a panel of mammalian cell lines.
