S-(5'-Deoxy-5'-adenosyl)-1-ammonio-4-(methylsulfonio)-2-cyclopentene: a potent, enzyme-activated irreversible inhibitor of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase
摘要:
The compound S-(5'-deoxy-5'-adenosyl)-1-ammonio-4-(methylsulfonio)-2-cyclopentene (AdoMac) was prepared and evaluated as an irreversible inhibitor of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (AdoMet-DC). AdoMac was shown to inhibit AdoMet-DC in a time-dependent manner with a K(I) of 18.3-mu-M and a k(inact) of 0.133 min-1. In addition, AdoMet-DC activity could not be restored following extensive dialysis of the enzyme-inhibitor complex, and the enzyme was protected from irreversible inactivation by the known competitive inhibitor methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone). HPLC analysis of the enzymatic reaction products revealed a time-dependent decrease in the peak coeluting with AdoMac, and a corresponding increase in the peak coeluting with (methylthio)adenosine (MTA), a byproduct of the irreversible binding of AdoMac to the enzyme. Thus, AdoMac appears to function as an enzyme-activated, irreversible inhibitor of AdoMet-DC.
Asymmetric Synthesis of the Carbocyclic Nucleoside Building Block (R)-(+)-4-Aminocyclopentenone Using δ-Amino β-Ketophosphonates and Ring-Closing Metathesis (RCM)
摘要:
Amino keto-2,7-dienes undergo ring-closing metathesis (RCM) to give 4-aminocyclopentenones, valuable intermediates in the asymmetric construction of carbocyclic nucleosides. The key amino ketodienes were prepared using delta-amino beta-ketophophonates, a new sulfinimine-derived chiral building block, and HWE chemistry.

enylphosphorane to nonracemic sulfinimines was investigated. It was found that the addition proceeded with good diastereoselectivity and further reaction of the formed sulfinimidophosphorane with several aldehydes afforded the β-sulfinamido substituted enones in good yields. The resultant enones were elaborated to the synthesis of alkaloid (+)-241D, to the formal total synthesis of (+)-preussin, and
