Based on previously reported structure-activity relationships, an analogue of bafilomycin A1 with a site-specific fluorine label at the C2 position was designed and efficiently synthesized. The fluorinated compound exhibited potent vacuolar-typ

Bafilomycin (Baf) is one of the most potent inhibitors of vacuolar-type ATPase, which is strongly implicated in age-related diseases. However, the binding site of the antibiotic on the protein remains unclear because of the complexity of the structure of Baf bound to the target subunit in the transmembrane region. For conducting structural studies by applying solid-state NMR, which is one of the most promising methodologies available for structural analysis in membrane system, preparing bioactive fluorinated Baf analogues is essential. In this study two Baf analogues were carefully designed and efficiently synthesized through the convergent coupling of three segments. Biological evaluation revealed that the activity of 24-F-Baf was comparable to that of Baf, indicating its utility as a potential probe for solid-state NMR analysis. By contrast, desmethylated 24-F-Baf exhibited markedly diminished activity. The absence of two methyl groups caused a critical conformational change in the macrocyclic core structure necessary for binding to the target protein.

A fluorine-labeled bafilomycin analogue was designed and convergently synthesized from three segments via the Stille coupling, macrolactonization, and diastereoselective aldol reaction. The V-ATPase inhibitory activity of the analogue was comparable to that of the natural product, indicating its utility as a potential molecular probe for investigating the inhibition mechanism of bafilomycin by NMR.
