New Polyaminoisoprenyl Antibiotics Enhancers against Two Multidrug-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria from Enterobacter and Salmonella Species
Lieutaud, Aurélie,Pieri, Cyril,Bolla, Jean Michel,Brunel, Jean Michel
, p. 10496 - 10508 (2020)
A series consisting of new polyaminoisoprenyl derivatives were prepared in moderate to good chemical yields varying from 32 to 64% according to two synthetic pathways: (1) using a titanium-reductive amination reaction affording a 50/50 mixture of cis and trans isomers and (2) a direct nucleophilic substitution leading to a stereoselective synthesis of the compounds of interest. These compounds were then successfully evaluated for their in vitro antibiotic enhancer properties against resistant Gram-negative bacteria of four antibiotics belonging to four different families. The mechanism of action against Enterobacter aerogenes of one of the most efficient of these chemosensitizing agents was precisely evaluated by using fluorescent dyes to measure outer-membrane permeability and to determine membrane depolarization. The weak cytotoxicity encountered led us to perform an in vivo experiment dealing with the treatment of mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium and affording preliminary promising results in terms of tolerance and efficiency of the polyaminoisoprenyl derivative 5r/doxycycline combination.

To determine the substrate specificities of wild and mutated types of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) synthases from Bacillus stearothermophilus, we examined the reactivities of 8-hydroxygeranyl diphosphate (HOGPP) and 8-methoxygeranyl diphosphate (CH3OGPP) as allylic substrate homologs. The wild-type FPP synthase reaction of HOGPP (and CH3OGPP) with isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) gave hydroxyfarnesyl-(and methoxyfarnesyl-) diphosphates that stopped at the first stage of condensation. On the other hand, with mutated type FPP synthase (Y81S), the former gave hydroxygeranylgeranyl diphosphate as the main double-condensation product together with hydroxyfarnesyl diphosphate as a single-condensation product and a small amount of hydroxygeranylfarnesyl diphosphate as a triple-condensation product. Moreover, the latter gave a double-condensation product, methoxygeranylgeranyl diphosphate, as the main product and only a trace of methoxyfarnesyl diphosphate was obtained.

A concise and diastereoselective construction of the ABCD ring system of spirochensilide A is described. The key steps of this synthesis are a semipinacol rearrangement reaction to stereoselectively construct the AB ring system bearing two vicinal quaternary chiral centers and a Co-mediated Pauson-Khand reaction to form the spiro-based bicyclic CD ring system. This chemistry leads to the stereoselective synthesis of 13(R)-demethyl spirochensilide A, paving the way for the first asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-spirochensilide A.

Construction of Pentacyclic Limonoid Skeletons via Radical Cascade Reactions
Mutoh, Hiroyuki,Nakamura, Shu,Hagiwara, Koichi,Inoue, Masayuki
, p. 6869 - 6878 (2021/05/29)
Limonoids 1 and 2 share a 6/6/6/5-membered ABCD-ring system and a six-membered oxacycle and differ in their C9-stereochemistries. A new radical-based strategy was devised to construct the pentacyclic skeletons of 1 and 2. An oxacycle-fused A-ring and enyne fragments were coupled to produce radical precursors 4a-4c with different C7-oxygen functionalities. The bridgehead tertiary bromide of 4a-4c participated in a radical cascade reaction with the three unsaturated bonds to cyclize the C9-diastereomeric BCD-rings.
A mild method for the replacement of a hydroxyl group by halogen: 3. the dichotomous behavior of α-haloenamines towards allylic and propargylic alcohols
Munyemana, Fran?ois,Patiny, Luc,Ghosez, Léon
, (2021/06/07)
A study of the deoxyhalogenation of allylic and propargylic alcohols with tetramethyl-α-halo-enamines is reported. Primary allylic and primary and secondary propargylic alcohols gave the corresponding halides in high yields. Secondary allylic and propargylic alcohols yielded the corresponding secondary halides but the reaction also produced some rearranged primary halides (I > Br > Cl). The reactions with tertiary allylic and tertiary propargylic alcohols gave several products and was therefore of little synthetic value. However, the addition of triethylamine to the reaction mixture or the use of lithium alkoxide instead of alcohol brought about a major change of the course of the reaction which led to amides carrying an allyl or an allenyl group at C2. This was shown to result from a Claisen-Eschenmoser rearrangement of an intermediate α-allyloxy- or propargyloxy-enamine.
Water-soluble meroterpenes containing an aminoglyceride fragment with geraniol residues: synthesis and membranotropic properties
Akhmedov, Alan A.,Shurpik, Dmitry N.,Plemenkov, Vitaliy V.,Stoikov, Ivan I.
, p. 29 - 31 (2019/02/19)
A number of new membrane anchors based on water-soluble aminoglycerides with geraniol fragments have been synthesized. A biomimetic approach was used based on the design of meroterpenes structurally similar to archaeal lipids. Turbidimetry and laser Doppler microelectrophoresis showed that the synthesized compounds were incorporated into unilamellar dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) vesicles.

Malaria is a serious tropical disease that kills thousands of people every year, mainly in Africa, due to Plasmodium falciparum infections. Salirasib is a promising cancer drug candidate that interferes with the post-translational modification of Ras. This S-farnesyl thiosalicylate inhibits isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase (ICMT), a validated target for cancer drug development. There is a high homology between the human and the parasite enzyme isoforms, in addition to being a druggable target. Looking to repurpose its structure as an antimalarial drug, a collection of S-substituted derivatives of thiosalicylic acid were prepared by introducing 1,2,3-triazole as a diversity entry point or by direct alkylation of the thiol. We further investigated the in vitro toxicity of FTS analogues to Plasmodium falciparum in the asexual stages and in Vero cells. An antiplasmodial activity assay was performed using a simple, high-sensitivity methodology based on nanoluciferase (NLuc)-transfected P. falciparum parasites. The results showed that some of the analogs were active at low micromolar concentration, including Salirasib. The most potent member of the series has S-farnesyl and the 1,2,3-triazole moiety substituted with phytyl. However, the compound substituted with methyl-naphthyl shows promising physicochemical and activity values. The low cytotoxicity in eukaryotic cells of the most active analogs provided good therapeutic indices, being starting-point candidates for future antimalarial drug development.
A General Catalytic Method for Highly Cost- and Atom-Efficient Nucleophilic Substitutions
Huy, Peter H.,Filbrich, Isabel
supporting information, p. 7410 - 7416 (2018/04/30)
A general formamide-catalyzed protocol for the efficient transformation of alcohols into alkyl chlorides, which is promoted by substoichiometric amounts (down to 34 mol %) of inexpensive trichlorotriazine (TCT), is introduced. This is the first example of a TCT-mediated dihydroxychlorination of an OH-containing substrate (e.g., alcohols and carboxylic acids) in which all three chlorine atoms of TCT are transferred to the starting material. The consequently enhanced atom economy facilitates a significantly improved waste balance (E-factors down to 4), cost efficiency, and scalability (>50 g). Furthermore, the current procedure is distinguished by high levels of functional-group compatibility and stereoselectivity, as only weakly acidic cyanuric acid is released as exclusive byproduct. Finally, a one-pot protocol for the preparation of amines, azides, ethers, and sulfides enabled the synthesis of the drug rivastigmine with twofold SN2 inversion, which demonstrates the high practical value of the presented method.
Nucleophilic Substitutions of Alcohols in High Levels of Catalytic Efficiency
Stach, Tanja,Dr?ger, Julia,Huy, Peter H.
supporting information, p. 2980 - 2983 (2018/05/28)
A practical method for the nucleophilic substitution (SN) of alcohols furnishing alkyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides under stereochemical inversion in high catalytic efficacy is introduced. The fusion of diethylcyclopropenone as a simple Lewis base organocatalyst and benzoyl chloride as a reagent allows notable turnover numbers up to 100. Moreover, the use of plain acetyl chloride as a stoichiometric promotor in an invertive SN-type transformation is demonstrated for the first time. The operationally straightforward protocol exhibits high levels of stereoselectivity and scalability and tolerates a variety of functional groups.
