A series of new 4- or 5-substituted pyrrolidine derivatives of 5-[1-(2-methoxymethylpyrrolidinyl)sulfonyl]isatin bearing additional n-butyl or 4-fluorobutyl groups at the isatin nitrogen were prepared and their inhibitory activities have been tested against caspases-3 and -7, which are known to participate in the execution of the programmed cell death, called apoptosis. Several analogues fluorinated at the 4-position of the pyrrolidine ring were also synthesized since such inhibitors might be developed as 18F-radiotracers for molecular imaging of activated caspases in vivo by PET. Enantiomerically pure diastereomeric 4-fluoropyrrolidinyl derivatives inhibited the enzymes in the nanomolar scale, i.e.100-1000 times more efficient than the corresponding 4-methoxy analogues. The 4,4-difluorinated compound showed the best result with IC50 = 362 nM and 178 nM for the aforementioned caspases. In contrast, the 4-methoxy and 4-trifluoromethyl analogues exhibited less inhibition potencies for the enzymes in the μM scale, whereas all 4-OPEG4 (PEG4 = tetraethyleneglycol) and 5-methoxymethyl derivatives were inactive.

trans-2,5-Bis(methoxymethyl)- and trans-2,5-bis(methoxymethoxymethyl)pyrrolidines proved to be excellent chiral auxiliaries for the asymmetric alkylation of the corresponding carboxyamide enolates giving good chemical yield and high stereoselectivity (invariably over 95percent de), with remarkable flexibility to substrates and reaction conditions.
