A divergent and highly enantioselective synthetic methodology for producing chirally β-deuterated L-amino acids was developed. This method is based upon the chirality transcription approach, using diacetone-D-glucos-3- ulose (1) as a template. 3-C-[2-2H1]-Ethenyl-3-O-(N- benzyl)methylthioformimidoyl-D-allo-derivatives (3b and 3c), which are easily accessible from 1, were subjected to halonium ion-assisted cyclization to afford highly diastereoselectively and efficiently versatile 5-membered cyclic carbamate synthons having a stereochemically defined deuterated halomethyl group (4c and 4d, respectively). Subsequent straightforward transformation of these synthons gave rise to (3R)- and (3S)-[3-2H1]-L- serine. Further transformation of the crucial halomethyl group of 4a-c was also pursued to extend this methodology.

The Gram-negative bacterium Yersinia ruckeri is the causative agent for enteric red mouth disease in salmonids. The genome of Y. ruckeri YRB contains a biosynthetic gene cluster encoding the biosynthesis of catechol siderophores that are diastereomeric with the known vanchrobactin class of siderophores, (DHBDArgLSer)(1–3). Ruckerbactin (1), produced by Y. ruckeri YRB, was found to be the linear tris-l-serine ester composed of l-arginine and 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid, (DHBLArgLSer)3. The biscatechol, (DHBLArgLSer)2 (2), and monocatechol, DHBLArgLSer (3), compounds were also isolated and characterized. The macrolactone of ruckerbactin was not detected. The presence of LArg in ruckerbactin makes it the diastereomer of trivanchrobactin with DArg. The electronic circular dichroism spectra of Fe(III)–ruckerbactin and Fe(III)–trivanchrobactin reveal the opposite enantiomeric configurations at the Fe(III) sites. Fe(III)–ruckerbactin adopts the Δ configuration, and Fe(III)–trivanchrobactin adopts the Λ configuration. Y. ruckeri YRB was also found to produce the antimicrobial agent holomycin (4).

Malaria remains a worldwide threat, afflicting over 200 million people each year. The emergence of drug resistance against existing therapeutics threatens to destabilize global efforts aimed at controlling Plasmodium spp. parasites, which is expected to leave vast portions of humanity unprotected against the disease. To address this need, systematic testing of a fungal natural product extract library assembled through the University of Oklahoma Citizen Science Soil Collection Program has generated an initial set of bioactive extracts that exhibit potent antiplasmodial activity (EC50 25 μM, selectivity index > 250). The unique chemodiversity afforded by these fungal isolates serves to unlock new opportunities for translating peptaibols into a bioactive scaffold worthy of further development.

A novel lipopeptide antibiotic, stalobacin I (1), was discovered from a culture broth of an unidentified Gram-negative bacterium. Stalobacin I (1) had a unique chemical architecture composed of an upper and a lower half peptide sequence, which were linked via a hemiaminal methylene moiety. The sequence of 1 contained an unusual amino acid, carnosadine, 3,4-dihydroxyariginine, 3-hydroxyisoleucine, and 3-hydroxyaspartic acid, and a novel cyclopropyl fatty acid. The antibacterial activity of 1 against a broad range of drug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria was much stronger than those of last resort antibiotics such as vancomycin, linezolid, and telavancin (MIC 0.004-0.016 μg/mL). Furthermore, compound 1 induced a characteristic morphological change in Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains by inflating the bacterial cell body. The absolute configuration of a cyclopropyl amino acid, carnosadine, was determined by the synthetic study of its stereoisomers, which was an essential component for the strong activity of 1.
