The thiol-ene ‘click’ reaction has emerged as a versatile process for carbon–sulfur bond formation with widespread applications in chemical biology, medicinal chemistry and materials science. Thioesters are key intermediates in a wide range of synthetic and biological processes and efficient methods for their synthesis are of considerable interest. Herein, we report the first examples of acyl-thiol-ene (ATE) for the synthesis of biomolecular thioesters, including peptide, lipid and carbohydrate derivatives. A key finding is the profound effect of the amino acid side chain on the outcome of the ATE reaction. Furthermore, radical generated thioesters underwent efficient S-to-N acyl transfer and desulfurisation to furnish ‘sulfur-free’ ligation products in an overall amidation process with diverse applications for chemical ligation and bioconjugation.

Ghrelin is a 28-residue peptide hormone produced by stomach P/D1 cells located in oxyntic glands of the fundus mucosa. Post-translational octanoylation of its Ser-3 residue, catalyzed by MBOAT4 (aka ghrelin O-acyl transferase (GOAT)), is essential for the binding of the hormone to its receptor in target tissues. Physiological roles of acyl ghrelin include the regulation of food intake, growth hormone secretion from the pituitary, and inhibition of insulin secretion from the pancreas. Here, we describe a medicinal chemistry campaign that led to the identification of small lipopeptidomimetics that inhibit GOAT in vitro. These molecules compete directly for substrate binding. We further describe the synthesis of heterocyclic inhibitors that compete at the acyl coenzyme A binding site.

Gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids that have been found in the cell membranes of all vertebrates. Their important biological functions are contributed by both the glycan and the ceramide lipid components. GM3 is a major ganglioside

Allylic amination enables late-stage functionalization of natural products where allylic C-H bonds are abundant and introduction of nitrogen may alter biological profiles. Despite advances, intermolecular allylic amination remains a challenging problem due to reactivity and selectivity issues that often mandate excess substrate, furnish product mixtures, and render important classes of olefins (for example, functionalized cyclic) not viable substrates. Here we report that a sustainable manganese perchlorophthalocyanine catalyst, [MnIII(ClPc)], achieves selective, preparative intermolecular allylic C-H amination of 32 cyclic and linear compounds, including ones housing basic amines and competing sites for allylic, ethereal, and benzylic amination. Mechanistic studies support that the high selectivity of [MnIII(ClPc)] may be attributed to its electrophilic, bulky nature and stepwise amination mechanism. Late-stage amination is demonstrated on five distinct classes of natural products, generally with >20:1 site-, regio-, and diastereoselectivity.
Alcohol functionality in the fatty acid backbone of sphingomyelin guides the inhibition of blood coagulation
Mallik,Prasad,Das,Sen
, p. 3390 - 3398 (2021/02/03)
Cell-surface sphingomyelin (SM) inhibits binary and ternary complex activity of blood coagulation by an unknown mechanism. Here we show the OH functionality of SM contributes in forming the close assembly through intermolecular H-bond and through Ca2+ chelation, which restricts the protein-lipid/protein-protein interactions and thus inhibits the coagulation procedure.

Enantiomers or diastereomers of chiral bioactive compounds often exhibit different biological and toxicological properties. Here, we report the efficient synthesis of four stereoisomers of sphingosine and derivatization of unique chiral ceramides through a combinatorial chemistry by solid-phase activated resin ester. In addition, to test the effectivity of stereochemistry of ceramide, we demonstrated a cell-based assay of sphingomyelin synthase inhibition in the presence ofchiral unique ceramides, which suggested that libraries of this sort will be a rich source of biologically active synthetic molecules.

The invention discloses a method for preparing high-purity (R)-4-formyl-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxazoline tert-butyl carboxylate. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out a reaction on D-serine and thionyl chloride in methanol to obtain a compound 2; carrying out a reaction on the compound 2 and Boc anhydride under triethylamine to obtain a compound 3; carrying out a reaction on the compound3 and 2,2-dimethoxypropane under the action of boron trifluoride diethyl ether to obtain a compound 4; and reducing the compound 4 and DIBAL-H are at a temperature of -60 DEG C to -80 DEG C to obtaina crude product, carrying out a reaction on the crude product and sodium sulfite to form salt, and purifying to obtain the high-purity (R)-4-formyl-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxazoline tert-butyl carboxylate. According to the invention, the salt forming is performed by using the properties of sodium sulfite and an aldehyde group, so that the purity of the salified product can reach 98%, the industrial standard is met, and the production operation is well facilitated.

The catalytic enantioselective synthesis of α-fluorinated chiral tertiary alcohols from (hetero)aryl methyl ketones is described. The use of a bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP) superbase was found to facilitate direct aldol addition by providing the strong Br?nsted basicity required for rapid aryl enolate formation. The new synthetic protocol is easy to perform and tolerates a broad range of functionalities and heterocycles with high enantioselectivity (up to >99:1 e.r.). Multi-gram scalability has been demonstrated along with catalyst recovery and recycling. 1H NMR studies identified a 1400-fold rate enhancement under BIMP catalysis, compared to the prior state-of-the-art catalytic system. The utility of the aldol products has been highlighted with the synthesis of various enantioenriched building blocks and heterocycles, including 1,3-aminoalcohol, 1,3-diol, oxetane, and isoxazoline derivatives.
N-AS-triggered SPMs are direct regulators of microglia in a model of Alzheimer’s disease

Sphingosine kinase1 (SphK1) is an acetyl-CoA dependent acetyltransferase which acts on cyclooxygenase2 (COX2) in neurons in a model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the mechanism underlying this activity was unexplored. Here we show that N-acetyl sphingosine (N-AS) is first generated by acetyl-CoA and sphingosine through SphK1. N-AS then acetylates serine 565 (S565) of COX2, and the N-AS-acetylated COX2 induces the production of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs). In a mouse model of AD, microglia show a reduction in N-AS generation, leading to decreased acetyl-S565 COX2 and SPM production. Treatment with N-AS increases acetylated COX2 and N-AS-triggered SPMs in microglia of AD mice, leading to resolution of neuroinflammation, an increase in microglial phagocytosis, and improved memory. Taken together, these results identify a role of N-AS in the dysfunction of microglia in AD.
