Total Syntheses and Initial Evaluation of [Ψ[C(=S)NH]Tpg4]vancomycin, [Ψ[=NH)NH]Tpg4]vancomycin, [Ψ[CH2NH]Tpg4]vancomycin, and Their (4-Chlorobiphenyl)methyl Derivatives: Synergistic Binding Pocket and Peripheral Modifications for the Glycopeptide Antibiotics

Full details of studies are disclosed on the total syntheses of binding pocket analogues of vancomycin bearing the peripheral l-vancosaminyl-1,2-d-glucosyl disaccharide that contain changes to a key single atom in the residue-4 amide (residue-4 carbonyl O → S, NH, H2) designed to directly address the underlying molecular basis of resistance to vancomycin. Also disclosed are studies piloting the late-stage transformations conducted on the synthetically more accessible C-terminus hydroxymethyl aglycon derivatives and full details of the peripheral chlorobiphenyl functionalization of all of the binding-pocket-modified vancomycin analogues designed for dual d-Ala-d-Ala/d-Ala-d-Lac binding. Their collective assessment indicates that combined binding pocket and chlorobiphenyl peripherally modified analogues exhibit a remarkable spectrum of antimicrobial activity (VSSA, MRSA, and VanA and VanB VRE) and impressive potencies against both vancomycin-sensitive and vancomycin-resistant bacteria (MICs = 0.06-0.005 and 0.5-0.06 μg/mL for the amidine and methylene analogues, respectively) and likely benefit from two independent and synergistic mechanisms of action, only one of which is dependent on d-Ala-d-Ala/d-Ala-d-Lac binding. Such analogues are likely to display especially durable antibiotic activity that is not prone to rapidly acquired clinical resistance. (Chemical Equation Presented).

Reaction of vancomycin and related antibiotics with trifluoroacetic acid at -15 deg C for 40 h selectively cleaved the amino sugar vancosamine; the second sugar, glucose, was removed by reaction with trifluoroacetic acid at 50 deg C for 3 h, and the N-terminal leucine moiety was cleaved using the Edman degradation procedure.
