Directed C(sp3)-H arylation of tryptophan: Transformation of the directing group into an activated amide
Nicke, Lennart,Horx, Philip,Harms, Klaus,Geyer, Armin
, p. 8634 - 8641 (2019)
The 8-aminoquinoline (8AQ) directed C(sp3)-H functionalization was applied in the synthesis of β-arylated tryptophan derivatives. The laborious protecting group reorganization towards α-amino acids compatible for solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) was cut short by the transformation of the directing group into an activated amide, which was either used directly in peptide coupling or in the gram scale synthesis of storable Fmoc-protected amino acids for SPPS. In this work, directed C-H activation and nonplanar amide chemistry complement each other for the synthesis of hybrids between phenylalanine and tryptophan with restricted side chain mobility.
A Novel Class of 7-Membered Heterocyclic Compounds
Bauer, Adriano,Borsos, Eszter,Maulide, Nuno
supporting information, p. 3971 - 3974 (2020/05/25)
The work presented herein describes the synthesis of a formerly inaccessible class of heterocyclic compounds. The reaction relies on α-phthalimido-amides, which are readily prepared from amino acids in 2 simple reactions steps. Under amide activation conditions in which classical keteniminium ions are not formed, the nitrile solvent is incorporated into the new fused 7-membered ring system. Due to the absence of a keteniminium intermediate, the stereogenic information in the α-position is fully retained.
NOVEL TRF1 MODULATORS AND ANALOGUES THEREOF

Paragraph 0047; 0064-0065; 0156-0157, (2020/03/26)
Novel TRF1 modulators and analogues thereof. There is provided compounds of Formula I, wherein R, R1, R2 and X have meanings written in the description. Such compounds are useful as TRF1 inhibitors and, for that reason, as medicaments, in the treatment of cancer, particularly high cancer stem cell cancer like glioblastoma and lung cancer, and can be also useful for the development of additional TRF1 inhibitors and increasing knowledge about TRF1 activity.
