An improved synthesis of a fluorescent gabapentin–choline conjugate for single molecule detection
摘要:
Voltage-gated calcium ion channels comprise pore-forming alpha(1) and auxiliary alpha(2)delta, beta, and gamma subunits. They are important molecular devices involved in a variety of cell functions. Fluorescently labeled acylcholine analogues are important in studies such as ion channel regulation. Cy3-3-acetylcholine has recently been synthesized for single molecule detection studies; albeit in an extremely low overall yield (0.06%). In this Work, an alternative route to that used in the previous Cy3-3-acetylcholine synthesis was developed with a 90% yield at a significantly lower material cost. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

forming macrocycle construction is described. Modular sulfonylhydrazone and derived pyridotriazole substrates with three key building blocks have been constructed and cyclized to afford diverse macrocyclicframeworks. Broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance have been demonstrated. In addition, site-selective postfunctionalization allowed for further diversification of macrocyclic cores.
from this conformation in a controlled way. Herein, we explore stereoselective fluorination as a method for controlling the conformations of α/γ-hybrid peptides. We show through a combination of X-ray, NMR and CD analyses that fluorination can either stabilize or disrupt the 12-helix, depending on the fluorinestereochemistry. These findings could inform the ongoing development of diverse functional hybrid
由 α- 和 γ- 氨基酸交替模式组成的肽作为抗代谢生物活性剂具有潜在的价值。为了获得最佳功能,通常需要某种构象限制来稳定主要的 12 螺旋,或者以受控方式将肽从该构象转移。在此,我们探索立体选择性氟化作为控制 α/γ-杂合肽构象的方法。我们通过结合 X 射线、NMR 和 CD 分析表明,氟化可以稳定或破坏 12 螺旋,具体取决于氟的立体化学。这些发现可以为多种功能杂合肽的持续开发提供信息。

Do the twist: C−F bonds have been incorporated, with stereocontrol, onto the backbone of a γ‐hexapeptide. The presence of fluorine either stabilizes or disrupts the helical conformation, depending on the stereochemical configuration. Fluorine also sets the “handedness” of the helix.
