Herein, we report the first Ni-catalyzed enantioselective deaminative alkylation of amino acid and peptide derivatives with unactivated olefins. Key for success was the discovery of a new sterically encumbered bis(oxazoline) ligand backbone, thus offering a de novo technology for accessing enantioenriched sp3-sp3 linkages via sp3 C-N functionalization. Our protocol is distinguished by its broad scope and generality across a wide number of counterparts, even in the context of late-stage functionalization. In addition, an enantioselective deaminative remote hydroalkylation reaction of unactivated internal olefins is within reach, thus providing a useful entry point for forging enantioenriched sp3-sp3 centers at remote sp3 C-H sites.

Due to the increased morbidity and mortality by fungal infections and the emergence of severe antifungal resistance, there is an urgent need for new antifungal agents. Here, we screened for antifungal activity in our in-house library through the minimum inhibitory concentration test and derived two hit compounds with moderate antifungal activities. The hit compounds' antifungal activities and drug-like properties were optimized by substituting various aryl ring, alkyl chain, and methyl groups. Among the optimized compounds, 22h was the most promising candidate with good drug-like properties and exhibited potent fast-acting fungicidal antifungal effects against various fungal pathogens and synergistic antifungal activities with some known antifungal drugs. Additionally, 22h was further confirmed to disturb fungal cell wall integrity by activating multiple cell wall integrity pathways. Furthermore, 22h exerted significant antifungal efficacy in both the subcutaneous infection mouse model and ex vivo human nail infection model.

Unnatural amino acids attract growing attention for pharmaceutical applications as they are useful building blocks for the synthesis of a number of chiral drugs. Here, we describe a two-step enzymatic method for the asymmetric synthesis of homoalanine from L-methionine, a cheap and readily available natural amino acid. First, the enzyme L-methionine γ-lyase (METase), from Fusobacterium nucleatum, catalyzed the γ-elimination of L-methionine to 2-oxobutyrate. Second, an amino acid aminotransferase catalyzed the asymmetric conversion of 2-oxobutyrate to either L- or D-homoalanine. The L-branched chain amino acid aminotransferase from Escherichia coli (eBCAT), using L-glutamate as amino donor, produced L-homoalanine (32.5 % conv., 28 % y, 99 % ee) and the D-amino acid aminotransferase from Bacillus sp. (DATA) used D-alanine as amino donor to produce D-homoalanine (87.5 % conv., 69 % y, 90 % ee). Thus, this concept allows for the first time the synthesis of both enantiomers of this important unnatural amino acid.

Abstract: l-2-Aminobutyric acid (l-ABA), an unnatural amino acid, is a key intermediate of several important drugs. Although some methods have been developed to prepare pure chiral l-ABA, there are still many drawbacks, including low catalytic efficiency, cumbersome steps and high cost due to the addition of some expensive catalysts or coenzymes. Herein, with chemical and biological approaches together, we discovered a newly isolated Aspergillus tamarii ZJUT ZQ013 strain containing a microbial lipase which could be employed to resolve racemic methyl N-Boc-2-aminobutyrate to produce l-ABA with high enantioselectivity (e.e.s?>?99.9%, E = 257). Moreover, the subsequent gram scale experiment confrimed that A. tamarii ZJUT ZQ013 could be an attractive biocatalyst for the efficient preparation of optically pure acid.

The synthesis of α,α-disubstituted α-amino acids via ichikawa rearrangement
Szczes?niak, Piotr,Pieczykolan, Micha?,Stecko, Sebastian
, p. 1057 - 1074 (2016/02/19)
An approach to α,α-disubstituted α-amino acids is reported. The key step is allyl cyanate-to-isocyanate rearrangement. As demonstrated, the resultant allyl isocyanates can be directly trapped with various nucleophiles, for instance, alcohols, amines, and organometallic reagents, to provide a broad range of N-functionalized allylamines. The developed method has been successfully applied in the synthesis of two bioactive peptides: 2-aminoadamantane-2-carboxylic acid derived P2X7-evoked glutamate release inhibitor and 4-amino-tetrahydropyranyl-4-carboxylic acid derived dipeptide GSK-2793660, which is currently in clinical trials as cathepsin C inhibitor for the treatment of cystic fibrosis, noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, ANCA-associated vasculitis and bronchiectasis.

Dipeptides with two hydrophobic side chains have proved to be an exceptional source of microporous organic materials, but since previous structures were limited to the incorporation of only proteinogenic residues, their full potential as adsorbents has remained unexplored. Single-crystal XRD data for ten new compounds with non-proteinogenic L-2-aminobutanoic acid and/or L-2-amino-pentanoic acid are presented. The gas-phase accessibility of their crystal pores, with cross-sections of 2.3 to 5.1?, was monitored by CO2 and CH4 adsorption isotherms. Included CO2 was also detected spectroscopically by 2D MAS NMR. An extensive conformational analysis reveals that the use of linear rather than branched side chains (such as L-valine and L-isoleucine) affords peptides with a greater degree of conformational freedom and yields more-flexible channel surfaces that may easily adapt to a series of potential guest molecules.

It is intended to provide a drug which is efficacious against pathological conditions relating to arginine-vasopressin V1b receptor. More particularly speaking, it is intended to provide a drug which has a therapeutic or preventive effect on depression, anxiety, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's chorea, eating disorders, hypertension, digestive diseases, drug addiction, epilepsy, brain infarction, brain ischemia, brain edema, head injury, inflammation, immune diseases, alopecia and so on. As the results of intensive studies, a novel 1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one compound and a pyrrolidin-2-one compound fused with a heteroaromatic ring, which are highly selective antagonists of arginine-vasopressin V1b receptor, have high metabolic stabilities and show favorable brain penetration and high plasma concentrations, are found, thereby achieving the above objective.
