Synthesis of Pseudomonas quorum-sensing autoinducer analogs and structural entities required for induction of apoptosis in macrophages
摘要:
The synthesis of the analogs of N-3-oxododecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (1) and their structure-activity relationship for the apoptotic induction in macrophages, P388D1 cells, are described. It was revealed that the position of the oxo group in the acyl side chain in addition to the presence of the L-homoserine lactone unit is crucial for the apoptosis-inducing activity. Furthermore, the long acyl side chains with hydrophobic distal ends are preferable for the activity. (C) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Treatment of secondary or tertiary alkyl bromides with alkyl Grignardreagents in the presence of catalytic amounts of silver bromide and potassium fluoride in CH2Cl2 afforded the corresponding cross-coupling products in reasonable yields. Moreover, silver showed catalytic activity for the cross-coupling reactions of alkyl bromides with aryl Grignardreagents.

A convenient chemoenzymatic synthesis for the title methyl branched chiron has been developed starting from 10-undecenoic acid (1). Thus, 1 was converted to 1-(tetrahydropyranyloxy)-10-undecan-2-one (4) which on reaction with triethyl phosphonoacetate and subsequent functionalization led to the racemic chiron 7. This was resolved via C. rugosa lipase-catalyzed acetylation and subsequently used for the syntheses of some chiral insect pheromones. Thus, (S)-7 was mesylated, reduced with LAH and acetylated to give the pheromone (R)-10-methyldodecan-1-yl acetate (I), while its oxidation to the aldehyde 10 followed by Wittig reaction with methylenephosphorane, depyranylation, and hydrogenation gave the alcohol 12. Its tosylation, detosylation, and Hg2+-catalyzed hydration furnished (R)-10-methyltridecan-2-one (II). Likewise, Wittig reaction of (R)-10 with a suitable phosphorane and similar protocol as above afforded the alcohol 14. Its tosylate was coupled with 3-butenylmagnesium bromide to furnish pheromone (S)-14-methyloctadecene (III).
