A series of N-pyrrolidine-based α,β-peptide catalysts incorporating a constrained 2-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]octane carboxylic acid (ABOC) residue were synthesized and evaluated in the asymmetric aldol reaction from acetone and some p-substituted benzaldehydes. Their catalytic properties were shown to be highly dependent on the amino acid sequences and on the absolute configuration of the ABOC residue that played a determinant role. Among the peptides tested, the heterochiral tripeptide H-Pro-(R)-ABOC-Asp-OCH3 13, that adopts a turn conformation in the solid state, proved to be the most efficient catalyst affording β-hydroxy ketones in high yields and good enantioselectivities (up to 87%).

The solid-phase synthesis and full chemical characterization of the medium-length (14-amino acid residues) peptaibol with antibiotic properties of tylopeptin B, originally extracted from the fruiting body of the mushroom Tylopilus neofelleus, are described. These data are accompanied by the results on the solution-phase synthesis via the segment condensation approach of a selected, side-chain protected, analog. A solution conformational analysis, performed by the combined use of FTIR absorption, circular dichroism, and 2D-NMR (the latter technique coupled to molecular dynamics calculations), favors the conclusion that the 3D-structure of tylopeptin B is largely helical with a preference for the α- or the 310-helix type depending upon the nature of the solvent. Helix topology and (partial) amphiphilic character are responsible for the observed membrane-modifying properties of this peptaibiotic.
Cyclopropanecarboxylic acid esters as potential prodrugs with enhanced hydrolytic stability

Esters of cyclopropanecarboxylic acid demonstrate a substantial increase in stability under both acid- and base-catalyzed hydrolytic conditions. Comparison of the stability of valacyclovir 13 with the cyclopropane analogue 14 shows that at 40 °C and pH 6 the half-life of 14 is >300 h while the value for 13 is 69.7 h. CBS-QB3 calculations on isodesmic reactions for transfer of groups from an alkane to an ester show that a cyclopropyl group provides hyperconjugative stabilization.

The invention concerns 2'-methyl ribonucleotide phosphoramidates which are neutral prodrugs which are converted in vivo to 2'- methyl ribonucleotide triphosphates. These compounds are useful in the treatment of viral infection. Of particular interest are prodrugs of a methylsulfonylhydrazinyl purine 2'-methyl nucleotide triphosphate: 2'methyl- N6-alkyl-N6- (N-methylsulfonamide) adenosine triphosphate and its 2-amino derivative.

We have synthesized by solution methods and characterized the lipopeptaibol metabolite LP237-F8 extracted from the fungus Tolypocladium geodes and five selected analogues with the Etn → Aib or Etn → Nva replacement at position 8 and/or a triple Gln → Glu(OMe) replacement at positions 5, 6, and 9 (Etn = Cα-ethylnorvaline, Aib = α-aminoisobutyric acid, Nva = norvaline). Conformation analysis, performed by FT-IR absorption, NMR, and CD techniques, strongly supports the view that the six terminally blocked decapeptides are highly helical in solution. Helix topology and amphiphilic character are responsible for their remarkable membrane activity. At position 8 the combination of high hydrophobicity and Ca tetrasubstitution, as in the Etn-containing LP237-F8 metabolite, has a positive effect on membrane interaction.
