A new amide synthesis strategy based on a fundamental mechanistic revision of the reaction of thioacids and organic azides is presented. The data demonstrate that amines are not formed as intermediates in this reaction. Alternative mechanisms proceeding through a thiatriazoline intermediate are suggested. The reaction has been applied to the preparation of simple and architecturally complex amides

were successfully prepared in good yields from a broad range of substrates, including furanosyl and pyranosyl derivatives. The methodology successfully relied on the in situ generation of lithium selenocarboxylates from Se/LiEt3BH and acyl chlorides or carboxylic acids and their reaction with sugar azides. A key aspect of the present protocol is that we start from elemental selenium; isolation and handling

transglycosylation catalysed by β-galactosidase from Bacillus circulans. Acceptor ability of 2 was shown to be as good as or better than several O-glycosides employed earlier. Systematic variation of reaction conditions led to improvement of yield from 5 % to 41 %. Interestingly, use of aqueous organic media has led to increased yield of transglycosylation and the 1,3-linked disaccharide was formed in considerable

Compounds that alter endothelial cell growth are of interest in the development of angiogenesis modulators. A structurally diverse series of saccharide derivatives (glycosylamide conjugates) have been synthesized and evaluated for their effects on bovine aortic endothelial cell (BAEC) growth. Heparin-albumin (HA) reduced BAEC growth by 32% at 10 mug/mL and a number of the novel saccharide conjugates from the library were found to mimic the effect of HA as they also inhibit endothelial cell survival under identical conditions. Two thiophene conjugates, thioglucamide (24% inhibition at 35 muM) and a related glucuronide (26% inhibition at 33 muM) were the most potent inhibitors of BAEC growth, as determined using a methylthiazol tetrazoliurn (MTT) assay. The effects of thioglucamide and HA on absolute cell number were also studied using cell counting experiments; thioglucamide (47% after 24 h) was more potent than indicated by the MTT assay and initially reduced the BAEC number to a greater extent than HA (30% after 24 h); however, its actions were over more rapidly than were HA's as cell growth had returned to levels of the control after 72 h where HA still caused 25% inhibition. The binding of the monosaccharide conjugates to fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) in competition with heparin-alburnin by ELISA was investigated to establish the possible mechanism by which glycoconjugates could alter growth but there was no general correlation between reduction in viable cell population and binding to FGF-2. No glycoconjugate reduced the proliferation of mouse mammary epithelial cells, nor did any alter gross cell morphology, supporting a proposal that the reduction in BAEC survival by monosaccharide conjugates such as thioglucamide is a result of the inhibition of cell proliferation rather than being an induction of cytotoxicity. These studies indicate that cell biological studies to determine the mechanism of action of the simple monosaccharide conjugates may be worthwhile. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Per-O-acetylated beta-D-glucopyranosyl azide was transformed into an intermediate iminophosphorane by PMe3 which was then acylated to N-acyl-beta-D-glucopyranosylamines. The same azide and substituted acetylenes gave 1-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-4-substituted-1,2,3-triazoles in Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloadditions. Deprotection of these products by the Zemplen method furnished beta-D-Glc(p)-NHCO-R derivatives as well as 1-(beta-D-Glc(p))-4-R-1,2,3-triazoles which were evaluated as inhibitors of rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase b. Pairs of amides versus triazoles with the same R group displayed similar inhibition constants. X-ray crystallographic studies on the enzyme-inhibitor complexes revealed high similarities in the binding of pairs with R = 2-naphthyl and hydroxymethyl, while for the R = Ph and 1-naphthyl compounds a different orientation of the aromatic part and changes in the conformation of the 280s loop were observed. By this study new examples of amide-1,2,3-triazole bioisosteric relationship have been provided. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
