Synthesis of 2-fluoronoraristeromycin and its inhibitory activity against Plasmodium falciparum S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase

Palladium-coupling reaction of (1S, 4R)-cis-4-acetoxy-2-cyclopenten-1-ol with sodium salt of 2-fluoroadenine resulted in the formation of (1S,4R)-4-(6-amino-2-fluoro-9H-purin-9-yl)cyclopent-2-en-1-ol.

Facile, alternative route to lubeluzole, its enantiomer, and the racemate

Lubeluzole [(S)-9] has been synthesized by a convergent synthesis, alkylation of N-methyl-N-piperidin-4-yl-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine (4) with (+)-(R)-1-chloro-3-(3,4-difluorophenoxy)propan-2-ol [(+)-(R)-8] being the key step.

Effect of ageing on sterol metabolism in potato tuber slices

When fresh potato tuber slices were incubated with [1-¹⁴C]-sodium acetate, cycloartenol was heavily labelled but no radioactivity was recovered in 24-methylene cycloartanol and free sterols. If potato slices were aged for 0–24 hr before feeding with radioactive acetate, a rapid increase of the label in the sterol precursors and the free sterols was observed. The free sterol content was 5 × higher after ageing for 24 hr. Isofucosterol synthesis was especially stimulated. The synthesis of sterols during the ageing process seems to be related to the appearance of a cycloartenol C24-methylase and may be linked to a biogenesis of membranes.Nomenclature: (1) 4,4,14α-trimethyl 9β, 19β-cyclo-5α-cholest-24-en 3β-ol; (2) 4,4,14α-trimethyl 9β, 19β-cyclo-5α-ergost-24(28)-en 3β-ol; (3) 4α,14α-dimethyl 9β,19β-cyclo 5α-ergost 24(28)-en 3β-ol; (4) 4α, 14α-dimethyl 5α-ergosta 8.24(28)-dien 3β-ol; (5) 4α-methyl 5α-ergosta 7,24(28)-dien 3β-ol; (6) ergosta 5,24(28)-dien 3β-ol; (7) stigmasta 5,Z-24(28)-dien 3β-ol; (8) (24R)-24 methyl cholest 5-en 3β-ol; (9) (24R)-24 ethyl cholest 5-en 3β-ol; (10) (24S)-24 ethyl cholesta 5,E-22(23)-dien 3β-ol; (11) cholest 5-en 3β-ol.     

Enantiomeric selectivity in behavioural and electrophysiological responses of Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes

1-Octen-3-ol is a kairomone for many haematophagous insects including mosquitoes. Numerous studies have examined the effects of racemic 1-octen-3-ol; however, few studies have investigated the role of individual enantiomers in relation to mosquito attraction. In the present study, we investigated the behavioural and electrophysiological responses of two mosquito species, Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus, to individual enantiomers and mixtures of 1-octen-3-ol, employing a laboratory Y-tube olfactometer and single sensillum recordings. The olfactory receptor neurons of both Ae. aegypti and Cx. quinquefasciatus had a significantly higher response to the (R)-1-octen-3-ol enantiomer compared to the (S)-1-octen-3-ol enantiomer at 10-9 g μl-1 to 10-6 g μl-1. Behaviourally, Ae. aegypti was more responsive to the (R)-1-octen-3-ol enantiomer, showing an increase in flight activity and relative attraction compared to Cx. quinquefasciatus. The (R)-1-octen-3-ol enantiomer caused an increase in activation for Cx. quinquefasciatus. However, the most notable effect was from an (R:S)-1-octen-3-ol mixture (84:16) that caused significantly more mosquitoes to sustain their flight and reach the capture chambers (demonstrated by a reduced non-sustained flight activity), suggesting that it may have a behaviourally excitatory effect. For Cx. quinquefasciatus, a reduced relative attraction response was also observed for all treatments containing the (R)-1-octen-3-ol enantiomer, either on its own or as part of a mixture, but not with the (S)-1-octen-3-ol enantiomer. This is the first time enantiomeric selectivity has been shown for Ae. aegypti using electrophysiology in vivo. The implications of these results for exploitation in mosquito traps are discussed.     

Stereochemical studies of chiral resolving agents, M9PP and H9PP acids

The stereoselective Grignard reaction of (1R,2S,5R)-(-)-2-isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexyl pyruvate (menthyl pyruvate) with 9-phenanthrylmagnesium bromide yielded diastereomeric hydroxy-esters, where intramolecular OH em leader O=C hydrogen bond was observed in IR and (1)H NMR spectra. The alkaline hydrolysis of the major product gave (+)-2-hydroxy-2-(9-phenanthryl)propionic acid (H9PP acid (3)), whose absolute configuration was assigned as S based on the chemical correlation with (1R,2S,5R)-2-isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexyl ester of (S)-2-methoxy-2-(9-phenanthryl)propionic acid (M9PP acid (2)); the absolute configuration of 2 had been previously established by X-ray crystallography. The enantioresolution of (+/-)-6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol, sulcatol, an insect pheromone, was carried out using (S)-(+)-M9PP acid 2.     

Synthesis of an aza analogue of 2-deoxy-D-ribofuranose and its homologues.

Azasugars were obtained in one-pot reactions by catalytic reduction reactions of amino group precursors in aldosugars followed by intramolecular reductive amino alkylation reactions. (3R,4S)-4-[(1S)-1,2-Dihydroxyethyl]pyrrolidin-3-ol was obtained from D-xylose by two different strategies through 3-C-cyano-3-deoxy-D-ribo-pentofuranose or 3-C-azidomethyl-3-deoxy-D-ribo-pentofuranose in 6 and 16% overall yields, respectively. The oxidative cleavage of the diol group in the corresponding Fmoc-azasugar followed by deprotection afforded (3R,4R)-4-(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidin-3-ol. (3R,4S)-4-[(1S,2R)-1,2,3-Trihydroxypropyl]pyrrolidin-3-ol was synthesized from diacetone-D-glucose through 3-deoxy-3-C-nitromethyl-D-allose and the overall yield was 7%.     

Determination of the absolute configuration of quercivorol, (1S,4R)-p-menth-2-en-1-ol, an aggregation pheromone of the ambrosia beetle Platypus quercivorus (Coleoptera: Platypodidae)

A pair of enantiomers of trans-p-menth-2-en-1-ol, an aggregation pheromone of Platypus quercivorus, was synthesized from (S)- and (R)-limonene. The retention time of the aggregation pheromone from the insect coincided with that of (1S,4R)-p-menth-2-en-1-ol synthesized from (S)-limonene from GC analyses with a chiral column, enabling the absolute configuration of the aggregation pheromone to be determined as (1S,4R).     

褐薄小齿菌的化学成分研究

(3Z)-2-Acetylamino-3-octadecen-1-ol as a potent apoptotic agent against HL-60 cells

(2R,3Z)-, (2R,3E)-, (2S,3Z) and (2S,3E)-2-Acetylamino-3-octadecen-1-ol, and (2R)- and (2S)-2-acetylamino-octadecan-1-ol were prepared using the Wittig olefination of Garner's aldehyde (N-Boc-N,O-isopropylidene-L- or D-serinal) from L- or D-serine. The apoptotic activities of these saturated and unsaturated 2-acetylaminoalcohols were examined in human leukemia HL-60 cells using MTT assay. Among the newly synthesized compounds, the cis-isomers were the most potent. Despite their simple structures, (2R,3Z)- and (2S,3Z)-2-acetylamino-3-octadecen-1-ol showed high and comparable apoptotic activities compared with N-acetyl-D-erythro-sphingosine (D-e-C2-Cer, a well-known inducer of apoptosis). Their apoptotic activities were in the order D-e-C2-Cer approximately L-e-C2-Cer approximately (2R,3Z)- approximately (2S,3Z)->(2R,3E)- approximately (2S,3E)- approximately (2R)- approximately (2S)-derivative. Qualitative analysis of DNA fragmentation caused by these compounds was conducted using agarose gel electrophoresis, and typical DNA fragmentation was found in the cases of (2R,3Z)- and (2S,3Z)-isomers such as C2-Cer, but not trans and saturated isomers. The morphological features of the cells, the proteolytic processing of pro-caspase-3, and the cleavage of PARP as a result of exogenous treatment with (2R,3Z)- and (2S,3Z)-isomers indicated that cell death induced by these compounds was apoptosis. These observations suggest that these newly synthesized compounds, (3Z)-2-Acetylamino-3-octadecen-1-ol, have similar characteristics and apoptosis-inducing activities against HL-60 cells with C2-Cer.

A Model to Evaluate the Cytotoxicity of the Fungal Volatile Organic Compound 1-octen-3-ol in Human Embryonic Stem Cells

Microbial growth in damp indoor environments has been correlated with risks to human health. This study was aimed to determine the cytotoxicity of 1-octen-3-ol (“mushroom alcohol”), a major fungal volatile organic compound (VOC) associated with mushroom and mold odors. Using an airborne exposure technique, human embryonic stem cells were exposed for 1 h to different concentrations (0–1,000 ppm) of racemic 1-octen-3-ol and its enantiomers, (R)-(−)-1-octen-3-ol and (S)-(+)-1-octen-3-ol. Cytotoxicity was assayed using both the MTS (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium) assay and the fluorescently tagged Calcein AM-mediated “live and dead” assay. Racemic 1-octen-3-ol and (S)-(+)-1-octen-3-ol exhibited greater cytotoxicity to the undifferentiated human cell line H1 than did (R)-(−)-1-octen-3-ol. The inhibition concentration 50 (IC₅₀) values assessed by the MTS assay for racemic 1-octen-3-ol, (S)-(+)-1-octen-3-ol and (R)-(−)-1-octen-3-ol were, respectively, 109, 98, and 258 ppm. These IC₅₀ values were 40–80-fold lower than that of vapor phase toluene, an industrial chemical used as a positive control in this study. Our report pioneers the modeling of human embryonic stem cells as an in vitro approach to screen the potential toxicity of fungal VOCs. Human embryonic stem cells exposed to 1-octen-3-ol, and its enantiomers in the vapor phase showed more cytotoxicity than those exposed to toluene.

The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence.     

Selective inhibitors of GABA uptake: synthesis and molecular pharmacology of 4-N-methylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-ol analogues

A series of lipophilic diaromatic derivatives of the glia-selective GABA uptake inhibitor (R)-4-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-ol [(R)-exo-THPO, 4] were synthesized via reductive amination of 3-ethoxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[d]isoxazol-4-one (9) or via N-alkylation of O-alkylatedracemic 4. The effects of the target compounds on GABA uptake mechanisms in vitro were measured using a rat brain synaptosomal preparation or primary cultures of mouse cortical neurons and glia cells (astrocytes), as well as HEK cells transfected with cloned mouse GABA transporter subtypes (GAT1-4). The activity against isoniazid-induced convulsions in mice after subcutaneous administration of the compounds was determined. All of the compounds were potent inhibitors of synaptosomal uptake the most potent compound being (RS)-4-[N-(1,1-diphenylbut-1-en-4-yl)amino]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-ol (17a, IC50 = 0.14 microM). The majority of the compounds showed a weak preference for glial, as compared to neuronal, GABA uptake. The highest degree of selectivity was 10-fold corresponding to the glia selectivity of (R)-N-methyl-exo-THPO (5). All derivatives showed a preference for the GAT1 transporter, as compared with GAT2-4, with the exception of (RS)-4-[N-[1,1-bis(3-methyl-2-thienyl)but-1-en-4-yl]-N-methylamino]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-ol (28d), which quite surprisingly turned out to be more potent than GABA at both GAT1 and GAT2 subtypes. The GAT1 activity was shown to reside in (R)-28d whereas (R)-28d and (S)-28d contributed equally to GAT2 activity. This makes (S)-28d a GAT2 selective compound, and (R)-28d equally effective in inhibition of GAT1 and GAT2 mediated GABA transport. All compounds tested were effective as anticonvulsant reflecting that these compounds have blood-brain barrier permeating ability.
