De Novo Design, Synthesis, and X-ray Crystal Structures of Pyrrolinone-Based .beta.-Strand Peptidomimetics
摘要:
The de novo design and synthesis of a novel non-peptide scaffolding for beta-strand/sheet mimics are described. The scaffold consists of repeating 3,5,5-trisubstituted pyrrolinone (enaminone) units punctuated with appropriate amino acid side chains. The iterative construction of the pyrrolinones exploits a highly efficient cyclization of metalloimines, the latter derived from C-terminal aldehydes and readily available alpha-substituted alpha-amino ester building blocks. As predicted by interactive computer modeling and confirmed by X-ray crystallography, the polypyrrolinones present the side chains and carbonyl hydrogen-bond accepters in a solid-state conformation which mimics polypeptide beta-sheets. Importantly, the enaminone NH protons form hydrogen bonds both intramolecularly, stabilizing the beta-strand conformation, and intermolecularly, promoting sheet formation. The presence or absence of the nitrogen protecting group controlled antiparallel versus parallel sheet formation.

[reaction: see text] A second-generation asymmetric synthesis of polypyrrolinones (3) has been achieved exploiting scalemic alpha-aminolactones (1) as building blocks. Imine formation between an appropriate lactone (1) and aldehyde (2), followed in turn by pyrrolinone ring construction promoted by KHMDS in the presence of 18-crown-6 and modified Swern oxidation furnished pyrrolinone aldehyde 3. This iterative

Tetrapyrrolinone somatostatin (SRIF) mimetics (cf. 1), based on a heterochiral (D,L-Mixed) pyrrolinone scaffold, were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for biological activity. The iterative synthetic sequence, incorporating the requisite functionalized coded and noncoded amino acid side chains, comprised a longest linear synthetic sequence of 23 steps. Binding affinities at two somatostatin receptor subtypes (hsst 4 and 5) reveal micromolar activity, demonstrating that the D,L-Mixed pyrrolinone scaffold can be employed to generate functional mimetics of peptide beta-turns.

A new two-step method employs the intramolecular cyclization of metalated imino esters for the construction of scalemic 3,5,5-trisubstituted pyrrolin-4-ones (4). The imino esters in turn derive from alpha-disubstituted amino acids, the latter readily available via a new protocol exploiting the enantioretentive alkylation of oxazolidinones.
