The synthesis of atalantrenes B, C and D, styrene-dimers from the seeds of Atalantia monophylla
Nielsen, Alexander J.,Deng, Zirou,McNulty, James
, (2020/12/28)
Concise syntheses of three recently reported natural products from Atalantia monophylla are reported. The syntheses required the preparation and careful dimerization of highly electron rich styrenes under acidic conditions. The present work adds to a growing body of evidence that demonstrates that synthetic utility of chiral phosphoric acids in asymmetric reactions using styrene-type compounds.
Synthesis and structure-activity relationship studies of hydrazide-hydrazones as inhibitors of laccase from trametes versicolor

A series of hydrazide-hydrazones 1-3, the imine derivatives of hydrazides and aldehydes bearing benzene rings, were screened as inhibitors of laccase from Trametes versicolor. Laccase is a copper-containing enzyme which inhibition might prevent or reduce the activity of the plant pathogens that produce it in various biochemical processes. The kinetic and molecular modeling studies were performed and for selected compounds, the docking results were discussed. Seven 4-hydroxybenzhydrazide (4-HBAH) derivatives exhibited micromolar activity Ki = 24-674 μM with the predicted and desirable competitive type of inhibition. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis revealed that a slim salicylic aldehyde framework had a pivotal role in stabilization of the molecules near the substrate docking site. Furthermore, the presence of phenyl and bulky tert-butyl substituents in position 3 in salicylic aldehyde fragment favored strong interaction with the substrate-binding pocket in laccase. Both 3- and 4-HBAH derivatives containing larger 3-tert-butyl-5-methyl- or 3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-benzylidene unit, did not bind to the active site of laccase and, interestingly, acted as non-competitive (Ki = 32.0 μM) or uncompetitive (Ki = 17.9 μM) inhibitors, respectively. From the easily available laccase inhibitors only sodium azide, harmful to environment and non-specific, was over 6 times more active than the above compounds.

Synthesis and evaluation of methoxy substituted 2-benzoyl-1-benzofuran derivatives as lead compounds for the development adenosine A1 and/or A2A receptor antagonists

, (2019/12/25)
A series of fourteen methoxy substituted 2-benzoyl-1-benzofuran derivatives were synthesised and their affinities determined for adenosine A1 and A2A receptors via radioligand binding assays to establish the structure activity relationships pertinent for A1 and A2A affinity. Compound 3j (6,7-dimethoxybenzofuran-2-yl)(3-methoxyphenyl)methanone exhibited A1 affinity (A1Ki (rat) = 6.880 μM) as well as A2A affinity (A2AKi (rat) = 0.5161 μM). Compounds 3a–b & 3i–k exhibited selective affinity towards A1 with Ki values below 10 μM. The results indicate that C6,7-diOCH3 substitution on ring A in combination with meta (C3′)–OCH3 substitution on ring B is beneficial for A1 and A2A affinity and activity. Compounds 3a–b & 3j–k showed low cytotoxicity. Upon in vitro and in silico evaluation, compound 3j may be considered lead-like (i.e. a molecular entity suitable for optimization) and, thus, of value in the design of novel, potent and selective adenosine A1 and A2A receptor antagonists.
An Optimized Preparation of 1,1-Dimethylallyl Esters and Their Application to Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis
Hostetler, Matthew A.,Lipton, Mark A.
, p. 7762 - 7770 (2018/07/05)
A one-step preparation of 1,1-dimethylallyl (DMA) esters was optimized for the C-terminal protection of a range of Fmoc-protected amino acids. This preparation is not sensitive to the scale of reaction and affords the corresponding DMA esters in 70-99% yield with high regioselectivity. Additionally, these DMA-protected amino acids were used with the backbone amide linker (BAL) of Albericio and Barany and found to resist diketopiperazine formation during the synthesis of a series of tripeptide esters. C-terminal DMA protection is compatible with the BAL linkage and allows for standard Fmoc-based methods to be used throughout the synthesis.

Allyl, dimethylallyl, crotyl, and prenyl ethers of various aromatic ortho-hydroxy carbonyl compounds undergo a tandem sequence of Claisen rearrangement, carbonyl olefination, and cyclization upon microwave irradiation in the presence of a stabilized ylide. The products are multiply substituted 6- or 8-allylated or prenylated coumarins (2H-chromen-2-ones).

Dong, Yi,Du, Nana,Li, Xueyuan,Zheng, Litao,Liu, Gang
supporting information, p. 4110 - 4113 (2015/09/01)
A palladium-catalyzed tandem reaction is reported that involves chloropalladation/cyclization and dearomative cyclization to construct a tricyclic bridged [3.2.1] carbocyclic-skeleton and oxa- and aza-skeletons. In this domino process, a level of ring strain and other competitive reactions, i.e., protonolysis, β-hydride elimination, and chlorination of the C-Pd bond, were suppressed to the lowest level under mild reaction conditions.

Dihydrochalcones and 5-deoxyflavones are types of compounds possessing various biologically interesting properties. Herein, we report the concise and divergent total syntheses of several naturally occurring dihydrochalcones and 5-deoxyflavones from readily available starting materials. The divergent strategy is based around manipulation of a common chalcone scaffold and features application of Algar-Flynn-Oyamada oxidation and benzoquinone C-H activation methodologies. These are the first reported total syntheses of these biologically interesting compounds and the concise and flexible route should be readily amenable to future analogue generation. Furthermore, this work provides an illustration of the utility of divergent synthesis for the expedient and step-economical preparation of natural product libraries.
