The MEP pathway, which is absent in animals but present in most pathogenic bacteria, in the parasite responsible for malaria and in plant plastids, is a target for the development of antimicrobial drugs. IspH, an oxygen-sensitive [4Fe-4S] enzyme, catalyzes the last step of this pathway and converts (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl diphosphate (HMBPP) into the two isoprenoid precursors: isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). A crucial step in the mechanism of this enzyme is the binding of the C4 hydroxyl of HMBPP to the unique fourth iron site in the [4Fe-4S]2+ moiety. Here, we report the synthesis and the kinetic investigations of two new extremely potent inhibitors of E. coli IspH where the OH group of HMBPP is replaced by an amino and a thiol group. (E)-4-Mercapto-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl diphosphate is a reversible tight-binding inhibitor of IspH with Ki = 20 ± 2 nM. A detailed kinetic analysis revealed that (E)-4-amino-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl diphosphate is a reversible slow-binding inhibitor of IspH with Ki = 54 ± 19 nM. The slow binding behavior of this inhibitor is best described by a one-step mechanism with the slow step consisting of the formation of the enzyme-inhibitor (EI) complex.

A rhodium-catalyzed [4 + 2 + 1] cycloaddition involving 1,3-diene, alkyne, and silylene to afford silicon-containing seven-membered rings was established. In the presence of a rhodium catalyst bearing bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (DPPM), nona-1,3-dien-8-yne derivatives reacted efficiently at 80-110 °C with boryl(isopropoxy)silane or boryl(diethyamino)silane, which reacts as the synthetic equivalent of silylene, to afford 1-silacyclohepta-2,5-dienes (2,5-dihydro-1H-silepines). Regiodivergent and chemo- and stereoselective functionalization of the seven-membered nonconjugated diene was achieved by hydroboration mediated by Cs2CO3 or an iridium catalyst.

A highly efficient method for the enantioselective synthesis of 1,4-dienes (skipped dienes) with a methyl-substituted central stereogenic carbon using copper-catalysed asymmetric allylic alkylation of diene bromides was developed. Excellent regio- and enantioselectivity (up to 97 : 3 SN2′/ SN2 ratio and 99% ee) were achieved with broad substrate scope. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2013.
Syntheses, antiproliferative activity and theoretical characterization of acitretin-type retinoids with changes in the lipophilic part
Magoulas, George E.,Bariamis, Stavros E.,Athanassopoulos, Constantinos M.,Haskopoulos, Anastasios,Dedes, Petros G.,Krokidis, Marios G.,Karamanos, Nikos K.,Kletsas, Dimitris,Papaioannou, Dionissios,Maroulis, George
experimental part, p. 721 - 737 (2011/03/20)
Acitretin analogs, incorporating changes in the lipophilic part, were efficiently synthesized from commercially available aromatic aldehydes or methyl ketones using the Wittig or Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction. Their antiproliferative activity was evaluated against human breast MCF-7 epithelial cells. Analogs 3, 4, 8 and 11 exhibited strong, dose-dependent, antiproliferative activity on the tested cell line. Analog 3, incorporating three methoxy groups in the aromatic ring, exhibited the strongest inhibitory effect at 10 μM. High-level all electron conventional ab initio and density functional theory quantum chemical calculations were performed to obtain the molecular structure, electron charge distribution and polarization properties of all compounds of interest in this work. The most active analogs were planar and were characterized by larger dipole moments than the other synthesized molecules. Another factor of importance to the analysis of the activity of these molecules is the dipole polarizability.
Simple, Catalytic Enantioselective Syntheses of Estrone and Desogestrel
Hu, Qi-Ying,Rege, Pankaj D.,Corey
, p. 5984 - 5986 (2007/10/03)
Highly enantioselective and very short syntheses of the bioactive forms of estrone (3) and desogestrel (4) are described using a chiral oxazaborolidinium catalyst (2) in the key initial step. Enantiomerically pure estrone was synthesized in eight steps from the readily available starting materials diene 5 and α,β-enal 6 via intermediates 8 and 9. Desogestrel was synthesized using a similar strategy from diene 5 and α,β-enal 11 via intermediates 12-17. The efficient syntheses of the chiral catalyst 2 and its enantiomer are also presented.

Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of side-chain unsaturated and homologated analogs of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(2). (24E)-(1S)-24-Dehydro-24a-homo-1,25-dihydroxyergocalciferol and congeners.

A series of analogs of 1,25-dihydroxyergocalciferol (1-4) was synthesized and screened for their antiproliferative activity in vitro. The structure of new analogs was designed based on biological activity of the previously obtained side-chain modified analogs of vitamin D(2) and D(3). The analogs were obtained by the Julia olefination of C(22)-vitamin D sulfone 11 with side-chain aldehyde 15. The analogs were tested for their antiproliferative activity against the cells of human breast cancer lines T47D and MCF7 as well as human and mouse leukemia lines, HL-60 and WEHI-3, respectively. Analog 2 (PRI-1907) showed the strongest antiproliferative activity out of the present series of analogs of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(2) with the mono homologated and double unsaturated side chain. The activity of 2 was 3-150 times stronger, depending on the cell line, than that of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (calcitriol), used as standard. Copyright 2002 Elsevier Science Inc.
