Synthesis and evaluation of chirally defined side chain variants of 7-chloro-4-aminoquinoline to overcome drug resistance in malaria chemotherapy

A novel 4-aminoquinoline derivative [(S)-7-chloro-N-(4-methyl-1-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)pentan-2-yl)-quinolin-4-amine triphosphate] exhibiting curative activity against chloroquine-resistant malaria parasites has been identified for preclinical development as a blood schizonticidal agent. The lead molecule selected after detailed structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies has good solid-state properties and promising activity against in vitro and in vivo experimental malaria models. The in vitro absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) parameters indicate a favorable drug-like profile.

Resolution of N-Protected amino alcohols by porcine pancreatic lipase

The resolution of 2-amino alcohols protected by urethane-type groups either via porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) hydrolysis of the corresponding racemic acetates or via PPL catalyzed transesterification of racemic alcohols was studied. In both cases, Boc protecting group led to better chemical yields and enantiopurities than Z and Fmoc protecting groups. Furthermore, a simple and efficient method for the synthesis of the medicinally interesting optically pure (R)-2- aminohexadecanol was developed.

Dihydroxyacetone phosphate aldolase catalyzed synthesis of structurally diverse polyhydroxylated pyrrolidine derivatives and evaluation of their glycosidase inhibitory properties

The chemoenzymatic synthesis of a collection of pyrrolidine-type iminosugars generated by the aldol addition of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to C-α-substituted N-Cbz-2-aminoaldehydes derivatives, catalyzed by DHAP aldolases is reported. L-Fuculose-1-phosphate aldolase (FucA) and L-rhamnulose-1-phosphate aldolase (RhuA) from E. coli were used as biocatalysts to generate configurational diversity on the iminosugars. Alkyl linear substitutions at C-α were well tolerated by FucA catalyst (i.e., 40-70% conversions to aldol adduct), whereas no product was observed with C-α-alkyl branched substitutions, except for dimethyl and benzyl substitutions (20%). RhuA was the most versatile biocatalyst: C-α-alkyl linear groups gave the highest conversions to aldol adducts (60-99%), while the C-α-alkyl branched ones gave moderate to good conversions (50-80%), with the exception of dimethyl and benzyl substituents (20%). FucA was the most stereoselective biocatalyst (90-100% anti (3R,4R) adduct). RhuA was highly stereoselective with (S)-N-Cbz-2-aminoaldehydes (90-100% syn (i.e., 3R,4S) adduct), whereas those with R configuration gave mixtures of antilsyn adducts. For iPr and iBu substituents, RhuA furnished the anti adduct (i.e., FucA stereochemistry) with high stereoselectivity. Molecular models of aldol products with iPr and iBu sub-stituents and as complexes with the RhuA active site suggest that the and adducts could be kinetically preferred, while the syn adducts would be the equilibrium products. The polyhydroxylated pyrrolidines generated were tested as inhibitors against seven glycosidases. Among them, good inhibitors of a-L-fucosidase (IC50 = 1-20 μM), moderate of α-L-rhamnosidase (IC50=7-150 μM), and weak of α-D-mannosidase (IC50 = 80-400 μM) were identified. The apparent inhibition constant values (Ki) were calculated for the most relevant inhibitors and computational docking studies were performed to understand both their binding capacity and the mode of interaction with the glycosidases.
