Alzheime?s disease (AD) is the most prominent neurodegenerative disorder with high medical need. Protein-protein-interactions (PPI) interactions have a critical role in AD where β-amyloid structures (Aβ) build toxic oligomers. Design of disease modifying multi target directed ligand (MTDL) has been performed, which disable PPI on the one hand and on the other hand, act as procognitive antagonists at the histamine H3 receptor (H3R). The synthetized compounds are structurally based on peptidomimetic amino acid-like structures mainly as keto, diketo-, or acyl variations of a piperazine moiety connected to an H3R pharmacophore. Most of them showed low nanomolar affinities at H3R and some with promising affinity to Aβ-monomers. The structure–activity relationships (SAR) described offer new possibilities for MTDL with an optimized profile combining symptomatic and potential causal therapeutic approaches in AD.
Novel approach to the synthesis of aliphatic and aromatic α-keto acids
Balducci, Daniele,Conway, Philip A.,Sapuppo, Giulia,Müller-Bunz, Helge,Paradisi, Francesca

A new practical and efficient synthesis of α-keto acids was accomplished starting from the synthon 1,4-diacetylpiperazine-2,5-dione. The synthesis encompasses both aromatic and aliphatic substrates proving to be versatile and innovative with excellent carbon economy and recycling of the glycine by-product.
Synthesis and phytotoxicity of structural analogues of thaxtomin natural products
Molesworth, Peter P.,Gardiner, Michael G.,Jones, Roderick C.,Smith, Jason A.,Tegg, Robert S.,Wilson, Calum
experimental part, p. 813 - 820 (2011/08/03)
Structural analogues of the phytotoxic thaxtomin natural products have been synthesized by building upon a piperazinedione core and from l-phenylalanine. The compounds were evaluated for their phytotoxic activity against Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings and some of the key features for activity have been identified. CSIRO 2010.
