Stereocontrolled synthesis and biological activity of two diastereoisomers of the potent HIV-1 protease inhibitor saquinavir
摘要:
A general enantioselective synthesis of new syn-hydroxyethylamine isosteres has been developed. The approach, based on the controlled opening of functionalized optically active 2,3-epoxy amines, can be conveniently used for the preparation of new peptidomimetics with various residues. Finally the total synthesis of two diastereoisomer analogues of HIV-Protease inhibitor Saquinavir has been achieved and their biological activity evaluated. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

MgBr<sub>2</sub>-mediated opening of 2,3-three membered heterocyclic amines
Regio- and stereo-controlled opening of 2,3-epoxy amines and 2,3-aziridine amines by the commercially available MgBr2 is described. As reported, this new method could represent a general and useful approach for the preparation of promising intermediates. Moreover, in particular cases, the reaction evolves toward an interesting oxazolidin-2-one structure. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2010).
