The invention relates to novel prodrugs or conjugates of the general formula (Ia)
in which cytotoxic drugs, for example kinesin spindle protein inhibitors, are masked with legumain-cleavable groups and hence release the drug, and to the use of these prodrugs or conjugates for treatment and/or prevention of diseases, and to the use of these prodrugs or conjugates for production of medicaments for treatment and/or prevention of diseases, especially of hyperproliferative and/or angiogenic disorders, for example cancers.

A series of ditopic synthetic receptors based on a crown ether–guanidinium ion recognition motif is reported. The compounds show binding affinity to selected amino acids, including important neurotransmitters. The effect of the distance of the ammonium and the carboxylate ion, the rigidity of the spacer, and the use of pre-organized pyrrole– and pyrene–guanidinium groups on binding affinity and selectivity
An -hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester reagent bearing an -protonated 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) moiety was synthesized as a stable solid. -Protonation temporarily deactivated the nucleophilic pyridine nitrogen, to induce compatibility with the NHS ester moiety. Using this reagent, DMAP was conjugated to primaryamines in aqueous buffer solutions in high yield.

Molecular rotations of Nα-acyl-L-lysines were determined in water and in water containing various amounts of HCl or NaOH. The acyl groups were formyl, acetyl, propionyl, and butyryl. Each Nα-acyl-L-lysine exhibited more negative rotation in HCl or NaOH solution than in water. The plot of molecular rotation against amount of HCl or NaOH resembled that of a D-α-amino acid even though Nα-acyl-lysine was of L-form. The reason for this is discussed from the standpoint of steric factors. Nε-Acyl-L-lysines corresponding to the Nα-acyl-L-lysines were synthesized as reference compounds. It was found that water-soluble Nε-acyl-L-lysines can be easily prepared by acylation of the Cu complex solution of L-lysine hydrochloride in the presence of triethylamine. The molecular rotation plots for Nε-acyl-L-lysines were typical of L-α-amino acids.
