Synthesis and biological evaluation of 1,1-difluoro-2-(tetrahydro-3-furanyl)ethylphosphonic acids possessing a N9-purinylmethyl functional group at the ring. A new class of inhibitors for purine nucleoside phosphorylases
摘要:
1,1-Difluaro-2-(tetrahydro-3-furanyl)ethylphosphonic acids cis-3 and trans-3 possessing a N9-purinylmethyl functionality at the ring were synthesized and tested as "multi-substrate analogue" inhibitors for purine nucleoside phosphorylases. Radical cyclization of allyic alpha,alpha-difluorophosphonate (E)-7 was applied to construct the alpha,alpha-difluorophosphonate-functionalized tetrahydrofuranyl moiety. The IC50 values of cis-3 and trans-3 for human erythrocyte PNP-catalyzed phosphorylation of inosine were determined to be 88 and 320 nM, respectively. The stereochemistry of the inhibitors was found to affect significantly the inhibitory potency. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
Synthesis and evaluation of multisubstrate analogue inhibitors of purine nucleoside phosphorylases
摘要:
1,1-Difluoro-2-(tetrahydro-3-furanly)ethylphosphonic acids (+/-)-cis-4a and (+/-)-trans-4a possessing a (purine-9-yl)methyl functionality at the ring as well as their homologues (+)-cis-4b and (+)-trans-4b were synthesized and tested as 'multi-substrate analogue' inhibitors for purine nucleoside phosphorylases. Radical cyclization of allylic alpha,alpha -difluorophosphonates 8a,b was applied to construct the alpha,alpha -difluorophosphonate-functionalized oxacycles 9a,b. The IC50 values of the nucleo tide analogues (+/-)-cis-4a and (+/-)-cis-4b were 88 and 38 nM, respectively, for human erythrocyte PNP-catalyzed phosphorylation of inosine in the presence of 100 mM orthophosphate. The stereochemistry of the inhibitors was found to affect significantly the inhibitory potency. The transisomers (+/-)-trans-4a and (+/-)-trans4b were ca. 4-fold less potent than the corresponding cis-isomers. At an intracellular concentration of orthophosphate (1 mM), (+/-)-cis-4b, the most potent compound of this series, was shown to have IC50 and K-i values of 8.7 and 3.5 nM, respectively.
