Crystal and molecular structure of (S)-N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)pyrrolidine-2- carboxamide

(S)-N-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide was synthesized from Cbz-l-proline through two steps and characterized by NMR and MS. The crystal structure was determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P21, with unit cell dimensions a = 7.284(6) A, b = 10.262(9) A, and c = 7.975(7) A, α = 90.00°, β = 114.451(14)°, γ = 90.00° and Z = 2. The absolute configuration of the chiral center is determined as S. In the crystal structure, intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonds are responsible for the formation of a 1-dimensional network.

Proline-based carbamates as cholinesterase inhibitors

Series of twenty-five benzyl (2S)-2-(arylcarbamoyl)pyrrolidine-1-carboxylates was prepared and completely characterized. All the compounds were tested for their in vitro ability to inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and the selectivity of compounds to individual cholinesterases was determined. Screening of the cytotoxicity of all the compounds was performed using a human monocytic leukaemia THP-1 cell line, and the compounds demonstrated insignificant toxicity. All the compounds showed rather moderate inhibitory effect against AChE; benzyl (2S)-2-[(2-chlorophenyl)carbamoyl]pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (IC50 = 46.35 μM) was the most potent agent. On the other hand, benzyl (2S)-2-[(4-bromophenyl)-] and benzyl (2S)-2-[(2-bromophenyl)carbamoyl]pyrrolidine-1-carboxylates expressed anti-BChE activity (IC50 = 28.21 and 27.38 uM, respectively) comparable with that of rivastigmine. The ortho-brominated compound as well as benzyl (2S)-2-[(2-hydroxyphenyl)carbamoyl]pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate demonstrated greater selectivity to BChE. The in silico characterization of the structure-inhibitory potency for the set of proline-based carbamates considering electronic, steric and lipophilic properties was provided using comparative molecular surface analysis (CoMSA) and principal component analysis (PCA). Moreover, the systematic space inspection with splitting data into the training/test subset was performed to monitor the statistical estimators performance in the effort to map the probability-guided pharmacophore pattern. The comprehensive screening of the AChE/BChE profile revealed potentially relevant structural and physicochemical features that might be essential for mapping of the carbamates inhibition efficiency indicating qualitative variations exerted on the reaction site by the substituent in the 3′-/4′-position of the phenyl ring. In addition, the investigation was completed by a molecular docking study of recombinant human AChE.

Enantioselective organocatalytic Biginelli reaction: Dependence of the catalyst on sterics, hydrogen bonding, and reinforced chirality

From a systematic investigation involving the synthesis of a series of catalysts and screening studies, the organocatalyst 16, which is sterically hindered, contains a strong hydrogen-bonding site, and is endowed with reinforced chirality, is shown to pro

Enantioseparation of benzazoles and benzanilides on polysaccharide-based chiral columns

The chiral recognition ability of the polysaccharide-based chiral columns (Chiralpak AD-RH, Chiralpak AS-RJ, Chiralpak IC, Chiralcel OD-RH, and Chiralcel OJ-RH) for the benzazoles and the benzanilides was evaluated under reversed phase conditions. The columns showed the high chiral recognition ability for a wide range of benzazoles and benzanilides. Twenty-one racemates were used for the evaluation, and 20 racemates were completely separated on at least one of the columns. In particular, AS-RH and OJ-RH showed the high chiral recognition ability for the benzazoles, and the AD-RH, IC, and OJ-RH were effective for the benzanilides. 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Evaluation of ligands for ketone reduction by asymmetric hydride transfer in water by multi-substrate screening

Various ligands for the ruthenium-catalyzed enantioselective reduction of ketones in water have been investigated. Multi-substrate reactions have been carried out for the comparison of various proline amides and aminoalcohol ligands. Two sets of six aromatic ketones have been selected in order to evaluate the enantiomeric excesses of all the resulting alcohols by a single chromatographic analysis. The proline amide derivative prepared from (1R,2S)-cis-aminoindanol revealed as the best ligand for most of the ketones used in the multi-substrate reductions. This ligand has been employed for the enantioselective reduction of a variety of other aromatic ketones and in all cases the enantiomeric excesses were improved compared to those obtained with phenylprolineamide used in our previous work.
