Identification of the Amipurimycin Gene Cluster Yields Insight into the Biosynthesis of C9 Sugar Nucleoside Antibiotics

Feeding studies indicate a possible synthetic pattern for the N-terminal cis-aminocyclopentane carboxylic acid (ACPC) and suggest an unusual source of the high-carbon sugar skeleton of amipurimycin (APM). The biosynthetic gene cluster of APM was identified and confirmed by in vivo experiments. A C9 core intermediate was discovered from null mutants of ACPC pathway, and an ATP-grasp enzyme (ApmA8) was reconstituted in vitro for ACPC loading. Our observations allow a first proposal of the APM biosynthetic pathway.

The N-Hydroxymethyl Group as a Traceless Activating Group for the CAL-B-Catalysed Ring Cleavage of β-Lactams: A Type of Two-Step Cascade Reaction

An efficient enzymatic two-step cascade procedure has been devised for rapid access to diverse amino acids from N-hydroxymethyl-β-lactams; representative amino acids include the antifungal agent cispentacin, intermediates for the taxol side-chain, and assorted cathepsin inhibitors. When CAL-B-catalysed hydrolyses of racemic N-hydroxymethyl-β-lactams were performed with H2O (0.5 equiv.) in iPr2O at 60 °C, relatively quick (vs. non-activated counterparts) and enantioselective (E > 200) ring cleavage reactions took place. As the ring-opened amino acids formed, the hydroxymethyl group, as a traceless activating group, underwent spontaneous in situ degradation. Consequently, the desired β-amino acid and unreacted N-hydroxymethyl-β-lactam enantiomers (ee > 95 %) were formed. The formation of polymers, induced by liberation of formaldehyde, was successfully restricted by the addition of benzylamine as a capture agent, to the enzymatic reactions. An efficient enzymatic two-step cascade procedure was devised for CAL-B-catalysed hydrolysis of racemic N-hydroxymethyl-β-lactams. Conditions in which the hydroxymethyl group serves as a traceless activating group (E > 200), giving desired β-amino acid along with unreacted starting lactam enantiomers (ee > 95 %) were identified; polymerization was controlled by addition benzylamine addition.

High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Enantioseparation of Cyclic β-Amino Acids on Zwitterionic Chiral Stationary Phases Based on Cinchona Alkaloids

Stereoselective high-performance liquid chromatographic separations of eight sterically constrained cyclic β-amino acid enantiomer pairs were carried out using the newly developed Cinchona alkaloid-based zwitterionic chiral stationary phases Chiralpak ZWIX(+) and ZWIX(-). The effects of the mobile phase composition, the nature and concentrations of the acid and base additives, the counterions and temperature on the separations were investigated. The changes in standard enthalpy, Δ(ΔH°), entropy, Δ(ΔS°), and free energy, Δ(ΔG°), were calculated from the linear van't Hoff plots derived from the ln α vs. 1/T curves in the studied temperature range (10-50°C). The values of the thermodynamic parameters depended on the nature of the selectors and the structures of the analytes. Unusual temperature behavior was observed on the ZWIX(-) column: decreased retention times were accompanied by increased separation factors with increasing temperature. On the ZWIX(+) column only enthalpically, whereas on the ZWIX(-) column both enthalpically and entropically driven separations were observed. The elution sequence was determined in all cases and was observed to be the opposite on ZWIX(+) and on ZWIX(-). Chirality 27:563-570, 2015.

Stereoselective organocatalytic approach to α,β-disubstituted- β-amino acids: A short enantioselective synthesis of cispentacin

α-Branched α,β-unsaturated aldehydes have been tested in the organocatalytic tandem Michael addition/cyclization with N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)hydroxylamine, a reaction which until now has been restricted to α-unsubstituted enals. Starting from cyclopentene-2- carbaldehyde, and using diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether as a chiral amine catalyst, this approach has led to the development of a practical, high yielding (93-98 % overall yield, three steps), and highly enantioselective (up to 98:2 er) route to the cyclic β-amino acid cispentacin, which compares favourably with previously described asymmetric syntheses of this biologically active natural product. When using acyclic α-branched α,β-unsaturated aldehydes as substrates, the reaction yields depend on the substitution pattern of the aldehydes, and mixtures of cis- and trans-isomers are obtained. Nevertheless, this strategy has proved to be successful in some instances, and (3R,4R)-benzyl 3-ethyl-4-methyl-5-oxoisoxazolidin-2-carboxylate could be obtained in 70 % overall yield (two steps) from the reaction of 2-ethylcrotonaldehyde and N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)hydroxylamine under catalysis with diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether, and with high enantiomeric purity (99:1 er). The organocatalytic tandem Michael addition/cyclization of cyclopentene-2-carbaldehyde with N-Cbz-hydroxylamine, using diphenylprolinol TMS ether as a chiral amine catalyst, gives a practical, high yielding, and highly enantioselective route to the cyclic β-amino acid cispentacin. Acyclic α-branched enals give variable results in the same reaction, depending on the substitution pattern. Copyright

Enantiomeric discrimination of cyclic β-amino acids using (18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid as a chiral NMR solvating agent

(18-Crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid is an excellent chiral NMR solvating agent for cyclic β-amino acids with cyclopentane, cyclohexane, cycloheptane, cyclopentene, cyclohexene, bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, and bicyclo[2.2.1]heptene rings. The crown ether was added to the neutral β-amino acids in methanol-d4. A neutralization reaction between the crown ether and β-amino acid forms the ammonium ion needed for favorable association. Enantiomeric discrimination of the two hydrogen atoms α to the amine and carboxylic acid moieties of the β-amino acid was observed with every substrate studied. Trends in the order of the enantiomeric discrimination of certain hydrogen atoms for substrates of similar structures correlate with the absolute configuration.

The first direct enzymatic hydrolysis of alicyclic β-amino esters: A route to enantiopure cis and trans β-amino acids

The first direct enzymatic method is reported for the synthesis of cis and trans βamino acid enantiomers through the lipase-catalyzed enantioselective hydrolysis of alicyclic β esters in organic media. High enantioselectivities (E usually > 001) were observed when the Candida antarctica lipase B catalyzed reactions were performed with H2O (0.5 equivalents) in iP iPr2O at 5°C. The resolved products, obtained in good yields (≥42%), could be easily separated.
