Pyrimethamine Derivatives: Insight into Binding Mechanism and Improved Enhancement of Mutant β-N-acetylhexosaminidase Activity
摘要:
In order to identify structural features of pyrimethamine (5-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-ethylpyrimidine-2,4-diamine) that contribute to its inhibitory activity (IC50 value) and chaperoning efficacy toward beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase, derivatives of the compound were synthesized that differ at the positions bearing the amino, ethyl, and chloro groups. Whereas the amino groups proved to be critical to its inhibitory activity, a variety of substitutions at the chloro position only increased its IC50 by 2-3-fold. Replacing the ethyl group at the 6-position with butyl or methyl groups increased IC50 more than 10-fold. Surprisingly, despite its higher IC50, a derivative lacking the chlorine atom in the para-position was found to enhance enzyme activity in live patient cells a further 25% at concentrations >100 mu M, while showing less toxicity. These findings demonstrate the importance of the phenyl group in modulating the chaperoning efficacy and toxicity profile of the derivatives.

The first copper-catalyzed regiodivergent cyanoboration of internal allenes with B2pin2 and NCTS derivatives has been developed. MeOH was identified as the necessary additive for the regeneration of LCu-Bpin species. Computational studies revealed that the copper-mediated allylic cyanation is the regio- and stereo-determining step, while the MeOH-assisted transmetalation with B2pin2 is the rate-determining
已经开发出第一个铜催化的具有 B 2引脚2和 NCTS 衍生物的内部丙二烯区域发散氰基硼化反应。MeOH 被确定为 LCu-Bpin 物种再生的必要添加剂。计算研究表明,铜介导的烯丙基氰化作用是区域和立体决定步骤,而甲醇辅助的 B 2 pin 2金属转移是速率决定步骤。
