Highly enantioselective asymmetric hydrogenation of readily accessible olefins, (E)- and (Z)-[1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-1,2,3, 4-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b]azepin-5-ylidene]acetic acid (4a and 4b, respectively) and [1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-2, 3-dihydro-1H-benzo[b]azepin-5-yl]acetic acid (4c), is presented as an efficient and straightforward route to (R)-[1-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-2,3,4, 5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b]azepin-5-yl]acetic acid [(R)-1] which is a key intermediate for the synthesis of non-peptide AVP V2-agonist. Hydrogenation of carboxylic acid 4c gave (R)-1 in quantitative yield and 85% ee using Ru(OAc)2[(S)-H8-BINAP], a Ru(II) complex of a partially hydrogenated BINAP (H8-BINAP), as a catalyst. When (R)-1 of 76% ee was transformed into the corresponding isopropylamide 6, pure enantiomer (R)-6 was obtained in 75% yield by recrystallization from MeOH. 相似文献

(Z)-4-Amino-2-fluorobut-2-enoic acid (1) is shown to be a mechanism-based inactivator of pig brain gamma-aminobutyric acid aminotransferase. Approximately 750 inactivator molecules are consumed prior to complete enzyme inactivation. Concurrent with enzyme inactivation is the release of 708 +/- 79 fluoride ions; transamination occurs 737 +/- 15 times per inactivation event. Inactivation of [3H]pyridoxal 5'-phosphate ([3H]PLP) reconstituted GABA aminotransferase by 1 followed by denaturation releases [3H]PMP with no radioactivity remaining attached to the protein. A similar experiment carried out with 4-amino-5-fluoropent-2-enoic acid [Silverman, R. B., Invergo, B. J., & Mathew, J. (1986) J. Med. Chem. 29, 1840-1846] as the inactivator produces no [3H]PMP; rather, another radioactive species is released. These results support an inactivation mechanism for 1 that involves normal catalytic isomerization followed by active site nucleophilic attack on the activated Michael acceptor. A general hypothesis for predicting the inactivation mechanism (Michael addition vs enamine addition) of GABA aminotransferase inactivators is proposed. 相似文献

Streptomyces coelicolor 1A and Pseudomonas citronellolis were able to degrade synthetic high-molecular-weight poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) and vulcanized natural rubber. Growth on the polymers was poor but significantly greater than that of the nondegrading strain Streptomyces lividans 1326 (control). Measurement of the molecular weight distribution of the polymer before and after degradation showed a time-dependent increase in low-molecular-weight polymer molecules for S. coelicolor 1A and P. citronellolis, whereas the molecular weight distribution for the control (S. lividans 1326) remained almost constant. Three degradation products were isolated from the culture fluid of S. coelicolor 1A grown on vulcanized rubber and were identified as (6Z)-2,6-dimethyl-10-oxo-undec-6-enoic acid, (5Z)-6-methyl-undec-5-ene-2,9-dione, and (5Z,9Z)-6, 10-dimethyl-pentadec-5,9-diene-2,13-dione. An oxidative pathway from poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) to methyl-branched diketones is proposed. It includes (i) oxidation of an aldehyde intermediate to a carboxylic acid, (ii) one cycle of beta-oxidation, (iii) oxidation of the conjugated double bond resulting in a beta-keto acid, and (iv) decarboxylation. 相似文献

The substrate and inhibitory properties of (R)- and (S)-4-amino-3-phenylbutanoic acid, (R)- and (S)-4-amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)butanoic acid (baclofens), (E)-4-amino-3-phenylbut-2-enoic acid, and (E)-4-amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)but-2-enoic acid are determined and compared with those of 4-aminobutanoic acid, 4-aminobut-2-enoic acid (4-aminocrotonic acid), and the racemic mixtures of 4-amino-3-arylbutanoic acids. All compounds in both series were found to be substrates, except for the R-isomers, which were identified as competitive inhibitors. These results are compared with known pharmacological data regarding the appropriate isomers. 相似文献

1. Phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetases have been partially purified from cotyledons of seeds of Aesculus californica, which contains 2-amino-4-methylhex-4-enoic acid, and from four other species of Aesculus that do not contain this amino acid. The A. californica preparation was free from other aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, and the contaminating synthetase activity in preparations from A. hippocastanum was decreased to acceptable limits by conducting assays of pyrophosphate exchange activity in 0.5m-potassium chloride. 2. The phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase from each species activated 2-amino-4-methylhex-4-enoic acid with K(m) 30-40 times that for phenylalanine. The maximum velocity for 2-amino-4-methylhex-4-enoic acid was only 30% of that for phenylalanine with the A. californica enzyme, but the maximum velocities for the two substrates were identical for the other four species. 3. 2-Amino-4-methylhex-4-enoic acid was not found in the protein of A. californica, so discrimination against this amino acid probably occurs in the step of transfer to tRNA, though subcellular localization, or subsequent steps of protein synthesis could be involved. 4. Crotylglycine, methallylglycine, ethallylglycine, 2-aminohex-4,5-dienoic acid, 2-amino-5-methylhex-4-enoic acid, 2-amino-4-methylhex-4-enoic acid, beta-(thien-2-yl)alanine, beta-(pyrazol-1-yl)alanine, phenylserine and m-fluorophenylalanine were substrates for pyrophosphate exchange catalysed by the phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetases of A. californica or A. hippocastanum. Allylglycine, phenylglycine and 2-amino-4-phenylbutyric acid were inactive. 相似文献

The partial resolution is described of a series of racemic trans-4-[5-(4-alkoxyphenyl)-2,5-dimethylpyrrolidine-1-oxyl-2-yl]benzoic acids (1), which are the key intermediates for the synthesis of chiral organic radical liquid crystalline compounds and are crystallized to give racemic compounds. Racemic acid 1 [(+/-)-1] with a long alkyl chain (C7 to C13) could be resolved by the conventional diastereomeric salt formation using (R)- or (S)-1-phenylethylamine (2) as the resolving agent, whereas resolution of (+/-)-1 with a short alkyl chain (C4 to C6) was unsuccessful. Use of six equiv of (R)- or (S)-2 for the initial diastereomeric salt formation of (+/-)-1 with a C7-C13 alkyl chain, followed by recrystallization of the resulting salts once or twice, gave 2S,5S- or 2R,5R-enriched 1, respectively, in an ee range of 75-92% and with an overall recovery of 11-27%, based on the original quantity of (+/-)-1. 相似文献

The capture web of N. clavipes presents viscous droplets, which play important roles in web mechanics and prey capture. By using scanning and transmission electron microscopy, it was demonstrated that the web droplets are constituted of different chemical environments, provided by the existence both of an aqueous and a lipid layer, which, in turn, present a suspension of tenths of vesicles containing polypeptides and/or lipids. GC/EI-MS Analysis of the contents of these vesicles led to the identification of some saturated fatty acids, such as decanoic acid, undecanoic acid, dodecanoic acid, tetradecanoic acid, octadecanoic acid, and icosanoic acid, while other components were unsaturated fatty acids, such as (Z)-tetradec-9-enoic acid, (Z)-octadec-9-enoic acid, and (Z)-icosa-11-enoic acid; and polyunsaturated fatty acids like (9Z,12Z)-octadeca-9,12-dienoic acid, (9Z,12Z,15Z)-octadeca-9,12,15-trienoic acid, and (11Z,14Z)-icosa-11,14-dienoic acid. Toxic proteins such as calcium-activated proteinase and metalloproteinase jararhagin-like precursor were also identified by using a proteomic approach, indicating the possible involvement of these enzymes in the pre-digestion of spiders' preys web-captured. Apparently, the mixture of fatty acids are relatively toxic to insects by topical application (LD50 64.3+/-7.6 ng mg(-1) honeybee), while the proteins alone present no topical effect; however, when injected into the prey-insects, these proteins presented a moderate toxicity (LD50 40.3+/-4.8 ng mg(-1) honeybee); the mixture of fatty acids and proteins is very toxic to the preys captured by the web droplets of the viscid spiral of Nephila clavipes when topically applied on them (LD50 14.3+/-1.8 ng mg(-1) honeybee). 相似文献

Evidence for an enamine mechanism of inactivation of pig brain gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) aminotransferase by (S,E)-4-amino-5-fluoropent-2-enoic acid is presented. apo-GABA aminotransferase reconstituted with [3H]pyridoxal 5'-phosphate is inactivated by (S,E)-4-amino-5-fluoropent-2-enoic acid and the pH is raised to 12. All of the radioactivity is released from the enzyme as an adduct of the cofactor; no [3H]pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate is generated. 相似文献

To study the metabolic fate of conjugated linoleic acid isomers, we synthesized, in seven steps, from 1-heptyne, (6Z,10E,12Z)-octadeca-6,10,12-trienoic acid, (8Z,12E,14Z)-eicosa-8,12,14-trienoic acid, and their [1-(14)C]-analogs. In the case of (6Z,10E,12Z)-octadecatrienoic acid, a series of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions between 1-heptyne and (E)-1,2-dichloro-ethene, a coupling reaction with a Grignard reagent and cleavage of the dioxolane gave (E)-dodec-4-en-6-ynal 3. Stereoselective Wittig reaction between aldehyde 3 and triphenyl-[5-(tetrahydro-pyran-2-yloxy)-pentyl]-phosphonium provided a dienyne. Stereocontrolled reduction of the triple bond and replacement of the tetrahydropyranyl group by a bromine gave (5Z,9E,11Z)-1-bromo-heptadeca-5,9,11-triene 10. Formation of the alkenyl lithium derivative and carbonation with CO(2) furnished (6Z,10E,12Z)-octadecatrienoic acid. (8Z,12E,14Z)-eicosa-8,12,14-trienoic acid was obtained by the same route but using triphenyl-[5-(tetrahydro-pyran-2-yloxy)-heptyl]-phosphonium iodide for the Wittig reaction. [1-(14)C]-analogs were obtained from the bromides by carbonation with (14)CO2. In all cases, chemical or radiochemical purities were found to be better than 95% after purification by flash chromatography on silica gel (>99% after additional purification by RP-HPLC). Metabolism studies in animals are in progress. 相似文献

1. The effects of the hypoglycaemic compound, pent-4-enoic acid, and of four structurally related non-hypoglycaemic compounds (pentanoic acid, pent-2-enoic acid, cyclopropanecarboxylic acid and cyclobutanecarboxylic acid), on the oxidation of saturated fatty acids by rat liver mitochondria were determined. 2. The formation of (14)CO(2) from [1-(14)C]palmitate was strongly inhibited by 0.01mm-pent-4-enoic acid. 3. The inhibition of oxygen uptake was less than that of (14)CO(2) formation, presumably because fumarate was used as a sparker. 4. The oxidation of [1-(14)C]-butyrate, -octanoate or -laurate was not strongly inhibited by 0.01mm-pent-4-enoic acid. 5. The other four non-hypoglycaemic compounds did not inhibit the oxidation of any saturated fatty acid when tested at 0.01mm concentration, though they all inhibited strongly at 10mm. 6. The oxidation of [1-(14)C]-myristate and -stearate, but not of [1-(14)C]decanoate, was strongly inhibited by 0.01mm-pent-4-enoic acid. 7. The oxidation of [1-(14)C]palmitate was about 50% carnitine-dependent under the experimental conditions used. 8. The percentage inhibition of [1-(14)C]palmitate oxidation by pent-4-enoic acid was the same whether carnitine was present or not. 9. Acetoacetate formation from saturated fatty acids was inhibited by 0.1mm-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid to a greater extent than their oxidation. 10. The other compounds tested inhibited acetoacetate formation from saturated fatty acids proportionately to the inhibition of oxidation. 11. Possible mechanisms for the inhibition of long-chain fatty acid oxidation by pent-4-enoic acid are discussed. 12. There was a correlation between the ability to inhibit long-chain fatty acid oxidation and hypoglycaemic activity in this series of compounds. 相似文献

The delta 5,9 fatty acids (5Z,9Z)-5,9-hexadecadienoic acid, (5Z,9Z)-5,9-nonadecadienoic acid, and (5Z,9Z)-5,9-eicosadienoic acid were synthesized for the first time in four steps (9-12% overall yield) starting from commercially available 2-(2-bromoethyl)-1,3-dioxolane. The synthetic approach provided enough material to corroborate the structure and stereochemistry of (5Z,9Z)-5,9-nonadecadienoic acid which was recently identified in the flowers of Malvaviscus arboreus (Malvaceae). The novel phospholipids 1-hexadecanoyl-2-[(5Z,9Z)-5,9-eicosadienoyl]-sn-glycer o-3-phosphocholine and 1-octadecanoyl-2-[(5Z,9Z)-5,9-eicosadienoyl]-sn- glycero-3-phosphocholine were also synthesized from commercially available L-alpha-phosphatidylcholine (egg yolk) and characterized by positive ion electrospray mass spectrometry. These are the first examples of unsymmetrical phospholipids with saturated fatty acids at the sn-1 position and delta 5,9 fatty acids at the sn-2 position. 相似文献

Microbial hydroxylation of (+/-)-(2Z,4E)-5-(1',2'-epoxy-2',6',6'-trimethylcyclohexyl)-3-methyl-2,4-pentadienoic acid (3a) with Cercospora cruenta, a fungus producing (+)-abscisic acid, gave a four-stereoisomeric mixture consisting of (+)- and (-)-xanthoxin acid (4a), and (+)- and (-)-epi-xanthoxin acid (5a) by an HPLC analysis with a chiral column. Screening of the microorganisms capable of oxidizing (+/-)-3a showed that Cunninghamella echinulata stereoselectively oxidized (+/-)-3a to xanthoxin acid (4a) with the some degree of enantioselectivity as (-)-3a to (-)-4a. 相似文献

Heterologous expression of a fatty acid hydroxylase gene in developing seeds of<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Arabidopsis thaliana</Emphasis> 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Expression of a cDNA encoding the castor bean ( Ricinus communis L.) oleate Delta12-hydroxylase in the developing seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. results in the synthesis of four novel hydroxy fatty acids. These have been previously identified as ricinoleic acid (12-hydroxy-octadec- cis-9-enoic acid: 18:1-OH), densipolic acid (12-hydroxy-octadec- cis-9,15-enoic acid: 18:2-OH), lesquerolic acid (14-hydroxy-eicos- cis-11-enoic acid: 20:1-OH) and auricolic acid (14-hydroxy-eicos- cis-11,17-enoic acid: 20:2-OH). Using mutant lines of Arabidopsis that lack the activity of the FAE1 condensing enzyme or FAD3 ER Delta-15-desaturase, we have shown that these enzymes are required for the synthesis of C20 hydroxy fatty acids and polyunsaturated hydroxy fatty acids, respectively. Analysis of the seed fatty acid composition of transformed plants demonstrated a dramatic increase in oleic acid (18:1) levels and a decrease in linoleic acid (18:2) content correlating to the levels of hydroxy fatty acid present in the seed. Plants in which FAD2 (ER Delta12-desaturase) activity was absent showed a decrease in 18:1 content and a slight increase in 18:2 levels corresponding to hydroxy fatty acid content. Expression of the castor hydroxylase protein in yeast indicates that this enzyme has a low level of fatty acid Delta12-desaturase activity. Lipase catalysed 1,3-specific lipolysis of triacylglycerol from transformed plants demonstrated that ricinoleic acid is not excluded from the sn-2 position of triacylglycerol, but is the only hydroxy fatty acid present at this position. 相似文献

[14 C]acetate was incorporated into mycolic acids by a cell-free, cell-wall fraction from Mycobacterium smegmatis . This activity was inhibited by methyl 4-(2-octadecylcyclopropen-1-y1) butanoate which was designed as a structural analogue of cis -tetracos-5-enoate, a precursor of mycolic acid biosynthesis. Other fatty acids and their methyl esters failed to inhibit mycolic acid biosynthesis at the concentration 1–2 mg ml-1 , at which methyl 4-(2-octadecylcyclopropen-1-y1) butanoate was effective. Thus a novel agent was shown to act against an enzyme activity or target involved specifically in biosynthesis of a characteristic, mycobacterial, cell-wall component. 相似文献

Semi-preparative HPLC on a chiral stationary phase (Chiracel OD) was utilized in the course of this synthesis to separate the four possible diastereomers [cis-(2R,4S)-2a, trans-(2S,4S)-2b, cis-(2S,4R)-2a', and trans-(2R,4R)-2b'] of a 2,4-disubstituted-1,3-dioxolane into optically pure forms (100% de, 100% ee). The syntheses of phosphodiester head group derivatives from each of these four conformationally constrained diastereomeric dioxolanes gave phospholipids which are monocyclic ether lipid analogs. First, the series of four [[(2-pentadecyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl]oxy]phosphocholines 5 were synthesized to give optically pure conformationally constrained analogues of ET-16-OCH(3). A head group variation was also demonstrated by the syntheses of the four diastereomeric [[(2-pentadecyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)-methyl]oxy]phospho-beta-(N-methylmorpholino)ethanols 6. 相似文献

Clinical efficacy of alkylating anticancer drugs, such as chlorambucil (4-[p-[bis [2-chloroethyl] amino] phenyl]-butanoic acid; CHB), is often limited by the emergence of drug resistant tumor cells. Increased glutathione (gamma-glutamylcysteinylglycine; GSH) conjugation (inactivation) of alkylating anticancer drugs due to overexpression of cytosolic glutathione S-transferase (GST) is believed to be an important mechanism in tumor cell resistance to alkylating agents. However, the potential involvement of microsomal GST in the establishment of acquired drug resistance (ADR) to CHB remains uncertain. In our experiments, a combination of lipid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC/ESI/MS) was employed for structural characterization of the resulting conjugates between CHB and GSH. The spontaneous reaction of 1mM CHB with 5 mM GSH at 37 degrees C in aqueous phosphate buffer for 1 h gave primarily the monoglutathionyl derivative, 4-[p-[N-2-chloroethyl, N-2-S-glutathionylethyl] amino]phenyl]-butanoic acid (CHBSG) and the diglutathionyl derivative, 4-[p-[2-S-glutathionylethyl] amino]phenyl]-butanoic acid (CHBSG2) with small amounts of the hydroxy-derivative, 4-[p-[N-2-S-glutathionylethyl, N-2-hydroxyethyl] amino]phenyl]-butanoic acid (CHBSGOH), 4-[p-[bis[2-hydroxyethyl] amino]phenyl]-butanoic acid (CHBOH2), 4-[p-[N-2-chloroethyl, N-2-S-hydroxyethyl]amino]phenyl]-butanoic acid (CHBOH). We demonstrated that rat liver microsomal GST presented a strong catalytic effect on these reactions as determined by the increase of CHBSG2, CHBSGOH and CHBSG and the decrease of CHB. We showed that microsomal GST was activated by CHB in a concentration and time dependent manner. Microsomal GST which was stimulated approximately two-fold with CHB had a stronger catalytic effect. Thus, microsomal GST may play a potential role in the metabolism of CHB in biological membranes, and in the development of ADR. 相似文献

We herein report a convenient synthesis of 3',5'-cyclic diguanylic acid via the modified H-phosphonate approach. The 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-ethoxypiperidin-4-yl (Cpep) group was used as protecting group for the 2'-hydroxy functions of ribonucleosides. Complete unblocking of the fully protected 3',5'-cyclic diguanylic acid gave cdiGMP as a homogeneous compound in an excellent yield. 相似文献
