3-Chloro-5-isoxazoleacetic acid is prepared from 3-chloro-5-isoxazolepropionic acid by conversion of the latter to E-3-chloro-5-isoxazoleacrylic acid. This is first converted to the acid chloride, then to the acid azide, which is subjected to a Curtius degradation and hydrolysed and the hydrolysed product is condensed with hydroxylamine to give the corresponding nitrile, which is hydrolysed to give said 3-chioro-5-isoxazoleacetic acid.
The present invention relates to reagents and methods for binding compounds to surfaces that are hydrophobic. More specifically, the invention relates to simple methods for coating of hydrophobic planar, membrane or particle surfaces to facilitate binding of molecules such as labels, dyes, synthetic and biological polymers and/or nanoparticles thereto.

Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are involved in many of life's essential biological functions yet are also an underlying cause of several human diseases, including amyloidosis. The modulation of PPIs presents opportunities to gain mechanistic insights into amyloid assembly, particularly through the use of methods which can trap specific intermediates for detailed study. Such information can also provide a starting point for drug discovery. Here, we demonstrate that covalently tethered small molecule fragments can be used to stabilize specific oligomers during amyloid fibril formation, facilitating the structural characterization of these assembly intermediates. We exemplify the power of covalent tethering using the naturally occurring truncated variant (ΔN6) of the human protein β2-microglobulin (β2m), which assembles into amyloid fibrils associated with dialysis-related amyloidosis. Using this approach, we have trapped tetramers formed by ΔN6 under conditions which would normally lead to fibril formation and found that the degree of tetramer stabilization depends on the site of the covalent tether and the nature of the protein-fragment interaction. The covalent protein-ligand linkage enabled structural characterization of these trapped, off-pathway oligomers using X-ray crystallography and NMR, providing insight into why tetramer stabilization inhibits amyloid assembly. Our findings highlight the power of "post-translational chemical modification" as a tool to study biological molecular mechanisms.
