Structure–Activity Relationships for Antibacterial to Antifungal Conversion of Kanamycin to Amphiphilic Analogues
摘要:
Novel fungicides are urgently needed. It was recently reported that the attachment of an octyl group at the O-4 '' position of kanamycin B converts this antibacterial aminoglycoside into a novel antifungal agent. To elucidate the structure-activity relationship (SAR) for this phenomenon, a lead compound FG03 with a hydroxyl group replacing the 3 ''-NH2 group of kanamycin B was synthesized. FG03's antifungal activity and Synthetic scheme inspired the synthesis of a library of kanamycin B analogues alkylated at various hydroxyl groups. SAR. studies of the library revealed that for antifungal activity the O-4 '' position is the optimal site for attaching a linear alkyl chain and that the 3 ''-NH2 and 6 ''-OH groups of the kanamycin B parent molecule are not essential for antifungal activity. The discovery of lead compound, FG03, is an example of reviving clinically obsolete drugs like kanamycin by simple chemical modification and an alternative strategy for discovering novel antimicrobials.
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for efficiently chemically synthesizing biomolecules including a nucleotide (nucleic acid), a peptide (protein), or a sugar chain, as representative examples. The present invention provides a method of solid-phase synthesis of sugar chain(s) for synthesizing multiple types of sugar chains in at least one sugar chain synthesis reaction system comprising multiple types of monosaccharide units, which is characterized in that it comprises changing the temperature in the sugar chain synthesis reaction system depending on the temperature rising rate that has been determined based on a decrease in side reaction(s) in the reaction system as an indicator.

An efficient and selective method for oxidation of glycosyl sulfides to the corresponding glycosyl sulfoxides with metalloporphyrins as catalysts and sodium hypochlorite as oxidant was achieved under mild conditions. High chemoselectivity and diastereomeric excesses were obtained. Both acid-labile protected groups and carbon-carbon double bonds of allyl groups tolerated under these conditions.
