Synthesis, analysis and rearrangement of novel unnatural glucosinolates
摘要:
As part of a structure activity study to examine the interaction of glucosinolates with leaf surfaces,a number of glucosinolates were synthesised bearing novel side chain functionalities. These included 7-carboxyheptyl, heptyl, and naphthyl side chains. For the carboxyheptyl glucosinolate, a novel intramolecular rearrangement reaction was observed during the final deprotection step, which generated an ester attached to the C-3 of glucose. Studies by H-1 NMR spectroscopy showed that the hydrophobic side chain associated with one face of the glucose ring and it was proposed that this was the driving force for the rearrangement. Similar hydrophobic interactions were also observed between the heptyl and naphthyl side chains and the glucose. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

New non-hydrolyzable analogues of glucosinolates have been prepared. Myrosinase inhibition was observed with modified aglycon moieties, even bulky phenothiazine analogue 6 gave reasonable inhibition. The simplest structure 8 derived from dimethylaminoethanethiol has shown to be the most potent inhibitor with an IC50 of 3.32 mu M. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
