Cancer is a chronic degenerative disease considered one of the most important causes of death worldwide. In this context, a series of dual-protected amino acid derivatives was synthesized and evaluated as potential novel anticancer agents. The 40 derivatives were prepared in up to three reaction steps. The cytotoxic activities were screened in vitro against a panel of tumor and non-tumor cells using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Among the synthesized derivatives, three of them showed promising activity against cancer cells with half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) ranging between 1.7-6.1 μM. The most promising derivative, bearing both a lipophilic N-alkyl diamine moiety and a protected amino acid scaffold showed a selectivity index of 3.4 towards tumor cells. The N-alkyl diamine moiety seems to play a crucial role in the enhancement of the anticancer activity. On the other hand, the incorporation of an amino acid scaffold resulted in increase in the selectivity towards cancer cell lines.

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease with high incidence and growing drug-resistant rates. In an attempt to develop new antitubercular agents, 35 compounds were synthesized, most of them bearing a carbamate and enantiopure amino acid moiety. These compounds had their activity evaluated toward a Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain (ATCC 27294) and cytotoxicity against fibroblast MRC-5 cells (ATCC CCL-171). Three of the prepared derivatives presented a good antimicrobial inhibition and two of them a moderate cytotoxicity. The lipophilicity seems to play a vital role in the cell growth activity, with best results for the derivatives with a higher logP.

The l-tert-leucine-derived AmidPhos/silver(I) catalytic system has been developed for the asymmetric [3+2] cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with electronic-deficient alkenes with or without Et3N. Under optimal conditions, highly functionalized endo-4-pyrrolidines were obtained with modest to high yields (up to 99% yield) and enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee).

The new Ag2CO3/CA-AA-amidphos complexes have been demonstrated as highly efficient multifunctional catalysts in the asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides. Under optimal conditions, highly functionalized endo-4 pyrrolidines were obtained with excellent yields (up to 99% yield) and enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee).
Highly modular dipeptide-like organocatalysts for direct asymmetric aldol reactions in brine
Hu, Xiao-Mu,Zhang, Dong-Xu,Zhang, Sheng-Yong,Wang, Ping-An
, p. 39557 - 39564 (2015/05/20)
A novel series of dipeptide-like organocatalysts derived from proline, amino acids and primary amines have been prepared for direct asymmetric aldol reactions between various aromatic aldehydes and acetone to afford aldol products in good yields (up to 82%) and moderate enantioselectivities (up to 67% ee) with only 1 mol% of catalyst-loading in brine. Under the same conditions, the direct asymmetric aldol reactions of aromatic aldehydes and cyclohexanone give aldol products with high yields (up to 91%) and moderate to good enantioselectivities (up to 88% ee) and excellent diastereoselectivities (up to 99% dr). These organocatalysts are easily synthesized from commercially available materials in multi-gram scale with high modularity in their structural and stereogenic properties.

A family of new chiral zwitterionic phosphorus-containing heterocycles (zPHC) have been derived from methylene-bridged bis(imidazolines). These structures were unambiguously determined, including single-crystal XRD analysis for two compounds. The stability, acid/base and electronic properties of these dipolar phosphorus heterocycles were subsequently investigated. zPHCs can be successfully employed as a new class of chiral solvating agents for the enantiodifferentiation of chiral carboxylic and sulfonic acids by NMR spectroscopy. The stoichiometry and binding constants for the donor-acceptor complexes formed were established by NMR titration methods. A convenient synthetic approach to a new class of chiral zwitterionic phosphorus-containing heterocycles starting from methylene-bridged bis(imidazolines) was designed and executed. Stability and properties of the synthesized compounds were investigated. The applicability of the designed compounds as chiral solvating agents for the determination of the enantiomeric excesses of chiral acids was demonstrated. Copyright

Synergistic effects of the exo- and endocyclic chiral centers of an imidazolidinone-based auxiliary were investigated in the perspective of acetate aldol reactions. The reversal in diastereoselectivity was accomplished by lithium and titanium enolate reactions, which proceed through proposed open and closed transitions states, respectively. The aldol adducts were used in the stereoselective synthesis of fluoxetine.
