Two biofriendly anionic amino acid surfactants (AAS), N-n-decanoyl-l-valine (C10-val) and N-n-decanoyl-l-leucine (C10-leu) were synthesized and mixed micellization of them with nonionic surfactant N-decanoyl-N-methyl-glucamine (Mega-10) was investigated by tensiometry and fluorimetry in 50 mM Tris-buffer (pH = 9) medium at 298 K. The critical micelle concentration (cmc), surface properties, e.g., Gibbs surface excess (Γmax), area of exclusion per surfactant monomer (A min) and surface pressure at cmc (Πcmc) were determined. Gibbs free energy of micellization (ΔG0m) and Gibbs free energy of adsorption (ΔG0ads) were also determined. Both the free energy values are negative indicating the spontaneity and stability of the mixed micelles. The size of the micelles was determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements. The deviation of mixed micelles from the ideal behavior was discussed on the basis of Clint, Motomura, Rubingh (regular solution theory), Rosen and Maeda's theory. Rubingh-Holland theory was applied on the ternary systems made by these three surfactants. The compositions of mixed micelle, the activity coefficients and the corresponding interaction parameters were evaluated from these theories. The interaction parameters (β) are negative, indicating attractive interaction between the ionic and nonionic surfactants. The micellar aggregation number (Nagg) and micropolarity were evaluated using steady state fluorescence measurements and the packing parameter (P) was determined on the basis of Israelachvili's theory. The standard free energy changes associated with the transfer of surfactant tail due to micellization of pure, binary and ternary combinations of surfactants were determined from Nagarajan's model. We report for the first time in detail the binary and ternary combinations using amino acid based surfactants.

New C2 symmetric chiral diimines were synthesized from the amino acids L-valine and L-phenyl alanine. In situ copper (II) complexes of the chiral diimine ligands were found to catalyze asymmetric Henry reaction. The chiral nitro aldols were formed in excellent yield (99%) and ee (99%). The synthetic utility of the chiral catalysts were screened with various substituted prochiral aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes. Possible catalytic cycle for the chiral diimine copper complex catalyzed asymmetric Henry reaction has been proposed. The stereoselectivity of the asymmetric Henry reaction was discussed based on the transition state in the catalytic cycle.

We report a selective, mild, and efficient C-H functionalization of tryptophan and tryptophan-containing peptides with activated α-bromo-carbonyl compounds under visible-light irradiation. The protocol efficiency is outlined by the wide substrate scope and excellent tolerance of sensitive functional groups present in the amino acid side chains. The method can be successfully extended to access pharmaco-peptide conjugate scaffolds.

One-pot conversion of sustainable d-ribose with l-amino acid, methyl esters produced pyrrole-2-carbaldehydes 5 in reasonable yields (32-63%) under pressurized conditions of 2.5 atm at 80 °C. The value-added pyrraline compounds 5 as platform chemicals were utilized for quick installation of poly-heterocyclic cores for the development of pyrrole-motif natural and artificial therapeutic agents. A pyrrole-fused piperazin-2-one scaffold 6 was prepared by reductive amination of pyrralines 5 with benzylamine. While further cyclization of pyrralines 5 with ethane-1,2-diamine produced pyrrolo-piperazin-2-ones 7 with an extra imidazolidine ring, the reaction with 2-amino alcohols derived from natural l-amino acids, alanine, valine, and phenylalanine, respectively provided pyrrolo-piperazin-2-ones 8, 9, and 10 with oxazolidine as the third structural core. Cell viability and an anti-inflammatory effect of the synthesized compounds were briefly tested by the MTT method and the Griess assay, among which 8h and 10g exhibited significant anti-inflammatory effects with negligible cell toxicity.
