Cysteine proteases (CPs) are involved in a myriad of actions that include not only protein degradation, but also play an essential biological role in infectious and systemic diseases such as cancer. CPs also act as biomarkers and can be reached by active-
Synthesis and structure-activity relationship of nitrile-based cruzain inhibitors incorporating a trifluoroethylamine-based P2 amide replacement

The structure-activity relationship for nitrile-based cruzain inhibitors incorporating a P2 amide replacement based on trifluoroethylamine was explored by deconstruction of a published series of inhibitors. It was demonstrated that the P3 biphenyl substituent present in the published inhibitor structures could be truncated to phenyl with only a small loss of affinity. The effects of inverting the configuration of the P2 amide replacement and linking a benzyl substituent at P1 were observed to be strongly nonadditive. We show that plotting affinity against molecular size provides a means to visualize both the molecular size efficiency of structural transformations and the nonadditivity in the structure-activity relationship. We also show how the relationship between affinity and lipophilicity, measured by high-performance liquid chromatography with an immobilized artificial membrane stationary phase, may be used to normalize affinity with respect to lipophilicity.

Paragraph 0088; 0090, (2019/07/03)
The invention relates to a method for preparing an N-acyl- or N-sulfonyl-α-aminonitrile, comprising the following steps: a) condensation of an N-acyl- or N-sulfonyl-α-aminoaldehyde with hydroxylamine to give an aldoxime, and b) dehydration of the aldoxime

An alternative route toward enantiomerically highly enriched N-acyl amino nitriles based on the Cu(OAc)2-catalyzed dehydration of aldoximes, which are readily available from N-acyl l- or d-α-amino aldehydes through condensation with hydroxylamine, has been developed. The desired products were obtained with high conversion and in enantiomeric excesses of 97-99% ee. Furthermore, this method has been applied in the synthesis of an N-chloroacetylated 2-cyanopyrrolidine, which represents a building block for the synthesis of Vildagliptin.
One-pot conversion of aldehydes to nitriles mediated by TiCl4

A simple and convenient one-pot synthesis of nitriles from the corresponding aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes has been developed. The titanium tetrachloride assisted reaction was conducted in pyridine under mild conditions using various types of aldehyde precursors and gave the corresponding nitriles in excellent yields. The application of the adopted protocol to isolated aldoxime intermediates provided the corresponding nitriles with yields comparable to those using the one-pot procedure.

experimental part, p. 9536 - 9541 (2009/12/28)
Optically active α-amino 4H-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-5-ones (oxadiazolones) were prepared from optically active α-amino acids in five synthetic steps. The oxadiazolone moiety serves as a bioisosteric replacement for the carboxylic acid. Incorporation of an α-amino oxadiazolone into a representative dipeptide mimic is described.
