A short route to N-protected furanomycin, 5′-epi-furanomycin and isofuranomycin derivatives
摘要:
A short new route to N-protected L-(+)-furanomycin and two of its isomeric derivatives has been developed, which featured the utility of D-serine as a chiral pool material and ring-closing metathesis as a key ring-forming step. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Bromoallenes 3a and 3b derived from (D)-Serine undergo SN2′ alkylation with organo copper reagents to give alkynyl amino alcohol derivatives. These compounds can be further transformed into branched enantiometrically enriched α-aminoacids as, for example (L)-Isolcucine and (L)-Alloisoleucine.
衍生自(D)-丝氨酸的溴代烯3a和3b用有机铜试剂进行S N 2'烷基化,得到炔基氨基醇衍生物。这些化合物可以进一步转化为对映体富集的支链α-氨基酸,例如(L)-异亮氨酸和(L)-异苏氨酸。

Dehydroamino acids are valuable building blocks that are a challenge to incorporate synthetically into unprotected peptides. Lantibiotic synthetases possess dehydration activity that converts Ser and Thr residues in their peptide substrates into dehydroalanine and dehydrobutyrine residues, respectively. We show here that lacticin 481 synthetase can convert the Thr analogues (R)-3-EtSer, (R)-3-vinylSer, (R)-3-ethynylSer, (R)-3-[(E)-propenyl]Ser, and (R)-3-propynylSer into the corresponding dehydroamino acids when incorporated into its peptide substrate. This relaxed substrate specificity holds promise for using the enzyme for synthetic purposes and for lantibiotic engineering. On the other hand, (R)-3-PrSer, (R)-3-iPrSer, and allo-Thr are not substrates for the enzyme.

A new series of hybrid PDMP analogues, based both on PDMP and styryl analogues of natural ceramide, has been synthesized from D-serine. The synthetic route was developed such that future introduction of different aryl groups is straightforward. Biological evaluation, both in vitro on rat liver Golgi fractions as well as in HEK-293 and COS-7 cells, revealed two lead compounds with comparable inhibitory potency as PDMP, which could be elaborated to more potent inhibitors.
