A new method for the synthesis of tertiary and quaternary aminoesters of N-substituted α,β-dehydroamino acids is described. Aseries of 16 dehydroamino acids esterified to choline or to its tertiary analog have been synthesized by the proposed method with a yield of 84–93%, and their interactions with human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (ACE) and human plasma butyrylcholinesterase (BCE) has been studied. The half-inhibiting concentrations IC50 of the synthesized compounds (determined with respect to cholinesterase hydrolysis of a model substrate, 0.1 mM ATC) vary within a broad range (0.16–1840 µM). The values of traditional parameters of the wave functions of ligands estimated using the Hartree-Fock method do not explain the observed pattern of the anticholinesterase activity. The specific properties of the molecules, especially in their quaternary ammonium salt forms, are probably related to their structural features, in particular, to the ability of the inhibitors to form cyclic conformations (so-called crown structures). Such structures are probably stabilized as a result of the formation of intramolecuar hydrogen bonds between protons of the choline residue and oxygen of the terminal peptide group.
本文介绍了一种合成 N-取代的 α、β-脱氢氨基酸的三级和四级氨基酯的新方法。通过所提出的方法合成了 16 种与胆碱或其三级类似物酯化的脱氢氨基酸系列,产率为 84-93%,并研究了它们与人红细胞乙酰胆碱酯酶(ACE)和人血浆丁酰胆碱酯酶(BCE)的相互作用。合成化合物的半抑制浓度 IC50(根据胆碱酯酶水解模型底物 0.1 mM ATC 测定)在很宽的范围内变化(0.16-1840 µM)。使用哈特里-福克方法估算的配体波函数的传统参数值并不能解释所观察到的抗胆碱酯酶活性模式。分子的特殊性质,尤其是季铵盐形式的分子,可能与它们的结构特征有关,特别是与抑制剂形成环状构象(所谓的冠状结构)的能力有关。这种结构的稳定可能是胆碱残基的质子与末端肽基的氧之间形成分子内氢键的结果。
