Preparation of (R)-(1-adamantyl)glycine and (R)-2-(1-adamantyl)-2-aminoethanol: a combination of cobalt-mediated β-ketoester alkylation and enzyme-based aminoalcohol resolution
摘要:
Alkylation of the cobalt(II) complex of ethyl acetoacetate with 1-bromoadamantane affords ethyl 2-(1-adamantyl)acetoacetate, which was converted into rac-(1-adamantyl)glycine 1 and rac-2-(1-adamantyl)-2-aminoethanol 7. This was separated into enantiomers by means of vinyl acetate in the presence of Pseudomonas cepacea. Configuration R was assigned to the enantiomerically pure aminoalcohol (R)-7 on the basis of X-ray diffraction data. Further oxidation of N-protected aminoalcohol (R)-8 afforded enantiomerically pure amino acid (R)-1. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
The aim of this work was to prepare L- and D-(adamant-1-yl)-Gly-L-Ala-D-isoGln peptides in order to study their adjuvant (immunostimulating) activities. Adjuvant activity of adamant-1-yl tripeptides was tested in the mouse model using ovalbumin as an antigen and in comparison to the peptidoglycan monomer (PGM; β-D-GlcNAc-(1→4)-D-MurNAc-L-Ala-D-isoGln-mesoDAP(εNH(2) )-D-Ala-D-Ala) and structurally related
A series of new peptides (8-25) containing different unnatural amino acids of the adamantane type (1-6), was synthesized. Possible cytotoxic activity on human cervical adenocarcinoma ( HeLa), larynx carcinoma (HEp-2), colon carcinomas (HT-29, Caco-2), poorly differentiated cells from lymph node metastasis of colon carcinoma (SW-620), mammary gland adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), and melanoma (HBL) cells were tested by the MTT assay. The results were compared with the effect of methionine-enkephalin (Tyr-GlyGly-Phe-Met, or opioid growth factor, OGF), and its shorter N-terminal fragments. Peptide analogues containing CRR-dialkylated glycine (Aaa1, 1) or CR-alkylated glycine (Aaa2, 2) amino acid residues showed antitumor activity against melanoma, larynx carcinoma, colon carcinomas, and colon metastasis cell lines in vitro. The pentapeptide Tyr-(R,S)-Aaa2-Gly-Phe-Met (18) was the most effective analogue especially against the most antitumor drug-resistant cell lines HEp-2 and SW-620. Apoptosis as a mode of cell death was confirmed in these tumor cells after exposure to pentapeptide 18.
