Development of a dual fluorogenic and chromogenic dipeptidyl peptidase IV substrate
Ho, Nan-Hui,Weissleder, Ralph,Tung, Ching-Hsuan
, p. 2599 - 2602 (2006)
A new far-red dual fluorogenic and chromogenic substrate, 5-glycylprolylglycylprolyl-9-di-3-sulfonyl-propylaminobenza[a]phenoxazonium perchlorate (GPGP-2SBPO), was developed for dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) sensing. The glycylprolylglycylprolyl tetrapeptide was chosen as the recognition sequence due to its stability under physiological conditions. In contrast, the truncated substrate, GP-2SBPO, containing only a glycylprolyl peptide, is unstable. Proteolysis of GPGP-2SBPO was assayed by monitoring the absorbance and fluorescence signals from the released fluorochrome, 2SBPO, at 625 and 670 nm, respectively.

The addition of an aqueous solution of diketopiperazine cyclo(Pro-Xxx) (Xxx: amino acid residue) to an aqueous solution of (?)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCg) led to precipitation of the complex of EGCg and cyclo(Pro-Xxx). The molecular capture abilities of cyclo(Pro-Xxx) using EGCg were evaluated by the ratio of the amount of cyclo(Pro-Xxx) included in the precipitates of the complex with EGCg to that of the total cyclo(Pro-Xxx) used. Stronger hydrophobicity of the side chain of the amino acid residue of cyclo(Pro-Xxx) led to a higher molecular capture ability. Furthermore, the molecular capture ability decreased when the side chain of the amino acid residue had a hydrophilic hydroxyl group. When diketopiperazine cyclo(Pro-Xxx), excluding cyclo(D-Pro-L-Ala), was taken into the hydrophobic space formed by the three aromatic A, B, and B′ rings of EGCg, and formed a complex, their conformation was maintained in the hydrophobic space. Based on nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) measurement, the 3-position methyl group of cyclo(D-Pro-L-Ala) in D2O was axial, whereas that of cyclo(L-Pro-L-Ala) was equatorial. When cyclo(D-Pro-L-Ala) was taken into the hydrophobic space of EGCg and formed a 2:2 complex, its 3-position methyl group changed from the axial position to the equatorial position due to steric hindrance by EGCg.

Peptide bond formation is a challenging, environmentally and economically demanding transformation. Catalysis is key to circumvent current bottlenecks. To date, many homogeneous catalysts able to provide synthetically useful methods have been developed, while heterogeneous catalysts remain largely restricted to the studies addressing the prebiotic formation of peptides. Here, the catalytic activity of Zr6-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) toward peptide bond formation is investigated using dipeptide cyclization as a model reaction. Unlike previous catalysts, Zr-MOFs largely tolerate water, and reactions are carried out under ambient conditions. Notably, the catalyst is recyclable and no additives to activate the COOH group are necessary, which are common limitations of previous methods. In addition, a broad reaction scope tolerates substrates with bulky and Lewis basic groups. The reaction mechanism was assessed by detailed mechanistic and computational studies and features a Lewis acid activation of carboxylate groups by Zr centers toward amine addition in which an alkoxy ligand on adjacent Zr sites assists in lowering the barrier of key proton transfers. The proposed concepts were also used to study the formation of intermolecular peptide bond formation. While intrinsic challenges associated with the catalyst structure and water removal limit a more general intermolecular reaction scope under current conditions, the results suggest that further design of Zr-MOF catalysts could render these materials broadly useful as heterogeneous catalysts for this challenging transformation.
Highly Diastereoselective Synthesis of Cyclic α-Aminophosphonic and α-Aminophosphinic Acids from Glycyl-l-Proline 2,5-Diketopiperazine
Ordó?ez, Mario,Torres-Hernández, Fernando,Viveros-Ceballos, José Luis
, p. 7378 - 7383 (2019/11/26)
This paper describes the first diastereoselective synthesis of cyclic α-aminophosphonic and α-amino phosphonic acids from glycyl-l-proline 2,5-diketopiperazine (S)-6 prepared according to the usual peptide coupling procedures. The highlights of this contribution is the chemoselective reduction of the carbamate-imide activated carbonyl group in the N-Boc 2,5-diketopiperazine (S)-11 to generate the unstable hemiaminals (1R,8aS)-12 and (1S,8aS)-13, followed by the highly diastereoselective nucleophilic addition of trimethyl phosphite or dimethyl phenylphosphonite to the chiral carbenium ion (S)-5. Acid hydrolysis of the phosphonate and phosphinate functionalities with simultaneous cleavage of the tert-butyl carbamate protecting group led to the target compounds. The high diastereoselectivity in the nucleophilic addition of trivalent phosphorus to the chiral carbenium ion (S)-5 is in agreement with our precedent reports.
Total Synthesis of Tryprostatin B: Synthesis and Asymmetric Phase-Transfer-Catalyzed Reaction of Prenylated Gramine Salt
Huisman, Matthew,Rahaman, Mizzanoor,Asad, Sharif,Oehm, Sarah,Novin, Sherwin,Rheingold, Arnold L.,Hossain, M. Mahmun
, p. 134 - 137 (2019/01/04)
A concise and efficient total synthesis of microtubule inhibitor tryprostatin B (1) is described. The key step is the preparation of a diprenylated gramine salt 9a. In this step, the prenyl group is incorporated at the 2-position of the indole moiety by direct lithiation of the Boc-protected gramine. We also developed and optimized the asymmetric phase-transfer-catalyzed reaction with salt 9a to provide the C2-prenyl tryptophan intermediate 2 resulting in 93% enantiomeric excess (ee) and 65% yield. The total synthesis of 1 is done in six steps with 35% overall yield.
Water-Tolerant and Atom Economical Amide Bond Formation by Metal-Substituted Polyoxometalate Catalysts
De Azambuja, Francisco,Parac-Vogt, Tatjana N.
, p. 10245 - 10252 (2019/11/03)
A simple, safe, and inexpensive amide bond formation directly from nonactivated carboxylic acids and free amines is presented in this work. Readily available Zr(IV)- and Hf(IV)-substituted polyoxometalates (POM) are shown to be catalysts for the amide bond formation reaction under mild conditions, low catalyst loading, and without the use of water scavengers, dry solvents, additives for facilitating the amine attack, or specialized experimental setups commonly employed to remove water. Detailed mechanistic investigations revealed the key role of POM scaffolds which act as inorganic ligands to protect Zr(IV) and Hf(IV) Lewis acidic metals against hydrolysis and preserve their catalytic activity in amide bond formation reactions. The catalysts are compatible with a range of functional groups and heterocycles useful for medicinal, agrochemical, and material chemists. The robustness of the Lewis acid-POM complexes is further supported by the catalyst reuse without loss of activity. This prolific combination of Zr(IV)/Hf(IV) and POMs inaugurates a powerful class of catalysts for the amide bond formation, which overcomes key limitations of previously established Zr(IV)/Hf(IV) salts and boron-based catalysts.

A general method for the facile synthesis of optically active 2-substituted piperazines via functionalized 2,5-diketopiperazines
Ashton, Kate S.,Denti, Mitchell,Norman, Mark H.,St. Jean Jr., David J.
supporting information, p. 4501 - 4504 (2014/08/05)
Upon utilization of some common methods described in the literature for the synthesis of chiral, 2-substituted 2,5-diketopiperazines, extensive racemization was observed. Further investigation showed that heating in the presence of a mild base racemized the chiral center in the product diketopiperazines. A generalized, readily scalable route was sought and, after investigating the effect of base and temperature, conditions were identified that promoted cyclization without erosion of enantiomeric excess. An array of functionalization was tolerated and this procedure serves as a useful and reliable method for the facile synthesis of this important class of compounds.
