Suzuki–Miyaura coupling for general synthesis of dehydrocoelenterazine applicable for 6-position analogs directing toward bioluminescence studies
摘要:
Synthesis of coelenterazine analogs is in recent demand to supply more luminescent compounds with reasonable stability as substrate for the photoprotein manipulated in a living cells or particular organelle. There are limited methods for the synthesis of 6-substituted coelenterazine due to the route and instability of the compounds under the existing conditions. This paper describes six examples including Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reaction with reactive triflate (unstable) and stable tosylate intermediates of the imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3-one. Five examples of 2-amino-3-benzyl-5-O-Tf-pyrazine are also discussed. The product coelenterazine analogs are obtained in the form of dehydrocoelenterazine, which is the substrate of a squid photoprotein, symplectin. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
