Conversion of .alpha.-Keto Esters into .beta.,.beta.-Difluoro-.alpha.-keto Esters and Corresponding Acids: A Simple Route to a Novel Class of Serine Protease Inhibitors
摘要:
The preparation of a series of beta,beta-difluoro-alpha-keto esters and corresponding acids RCF(2)COCO(2)R' (R = Me, Et; i-Pr, Bn, and Ph; R' = Et and H), designed as potential inhibitors of serine proteases, is described. The standard procedure developed consists in the initial formation of an alpha,alpha-difluoro ester from an alpha-keto ester, followed by a simple four-step sequence involving the synthesis of hemiacetal, cyanohydrin, and alpha-hydroxy ester difluorinated intermediates. This method provides an easy route to beta,beta-difluoro-alpha-keto esters and corresponding acids, via ''formal'' insertion of a difluoromethylene group between the R substituent and the alpha-carbonyl group of a generic alpha-keto ester.

1-Amino-2,2-difluorocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (DFACC) is of interest in the study of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) deaminase due to the increased reactivity of its cyclopropyl functionality. It is shown that DFACC is unstable under near-physiological conditions where it primarily decomposes via specific-base catalysis to 3-fluoro-2-oxobut-3-enoic acid with a rate constant of 0.18 +/- 0.01 min(-1). Upon incubation with ACC deaminase, DFACC is found to be a slow-dissociating inhibitor of ACC deaminase with submicromolar affinity.
