The synthesis of novel pyrimidine nucleoside bioconjugates with amino acids is presented. The N4-amino acid-acylated 2′-deoxycytidine analogues, modified with various amino acids, were synthesized using a three-step synthesis and obtained in moderate overall yields. Novel amino acid-alkylated 2′-deoxycytidine derivatives were obtained during the rearrangement of amino acid-acylated derivatives that occurred during Boc deprotection.

Antibiotic chloramphenicol (CHL) binds with a moderate affinity at the peptidyl transferase center of the bacterial ribosome and inhibits peptide bond formation. As an approach for modifying and potentially improving properties of this inhibitor, we explored ribosome binding and inhibitory activity of a number of amino acid analogs of CHL. The L-histidyl analog binds to the ribosome with the affinity exceeding that of CHL by 10 fold. Several of the newly synthesized analogs were able to inhibit protein synthesis and exhibited the mode of action that was distinct from the action of CHL. However, the inhibitory properties of the semi-synthetic CHL analogs did not correlate with their affinity and in general, the amino acid analogs of CHL were less active inhibitors of translation in comparison with the original antibiotic. The X-ray crystal structures of the Thermus thermophilus 70S ribosome in complex with three semi-synthetic analogs showed that CHL derivatives bind at the peptidyl transferase center, where the aminoacyl moiety of the tested compounds established idiosyncratic interactions with rRNA. Although still fairly inefficient inhibitors of translation, the synthesized compounds represent promising chemical scaffolds that target the peptidyl transferase center of the ribosome and potentially are suitable for further exploration.

A method using N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide/N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (BSA/NHS) as coupling agents for dipeptide synthesis is descried. The coupling reaction between N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) esters and amines could be performed under mild conditions with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (BSA) as coupling reagent and no additional acid/base is required. All byproducts and excessive reactants are water soluble or hydrolysable and easy to eliminate through water-washing at the purification stage. Moreover, all the reactants are inexpensive and widely used in conventional drug production.
