Iterative Oxime Bond Chemistry Leads to Protease Inhibitors
摘要:
In the present paper, we have looked at iterative coupling as a strategy to form new druglike molecules. We have developed an iterative coupling chemistry based on oxime bond formation between hydroxyaromatic aldehyde building blocks to form linear oxime oligomers. The strategy is validated by the discovery of micromolar protease inhibitors.

Intermolecular carbon radical addition to the carbon-nitrogen double bond of oximeethers and hydrazones was studied. The reaction of unactivated aldoxime ethers proceeded smoothly in the presence of BF3·OEt2 to give the alkylated products in high yields via the free radical-mediated carbon-carbon bond-forming process.
