Amphiphilic Polysaccharide Block Copolymers for pH-Responsive Micellar Nanoparticles

2017

A full polysaccharide amphiphilic block copolymer was prepared from end group-functionalized dextrans using copper-mediated azide-alkyne click chemistry. Sufficient modification of the reducing end in both blocks was achieved by microwave-enhanced reductive amination in a borate-buffer/methanol solvent system. The combination of a hydrophilic dextran block with a hydrophobic acetalated dextran block results in an amphiphilic structure that turns water-soluble upon acid treatment. The material has a low critical micelle concentration and self-assembles in water to spherical micellar nanoparticles. The formed nanoparticles have a narrow size distribution below 70 nm in diameter and disassembl…

Synthesis of 8-aminomorphans with high KOR affinity

2021

2-Azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes (morphans) with a (3,4-dichlorophenyl)acetyl group at 2-position and a pyrrolidino moiety at 8-position were designed as conformationally restricted analogs of piperidine-based KOR agonists. The synthesis started with 4-oxopiperidine-2-carboxylic acid comprising 13 reaction steps. At first the ketone 10 was transformed into diester 7 bearing a propionate side chain. Dieckmann condensation of diester 7 to afford bicyclic enolester 14 and subsequent Krapcho deethoxycarbonylation represent the key steps of the synthesis. The enantiomeric pyrrolidines (1S,5R,8R)-5a and (1R,5S,8S)-5a were separated by chiral HPLC. The eutomer (1S,5R,8R)-5a showed high KOR affinity (K-i…

A short and modular approach towards 3,5-disubstituted indolizidine alkaloids.

2016

3,5-Dialkyl indolizidines have been prepared in four linear steps from commercially available starting materials. The sequence involves two direct α-functionalization steps and a subsequent reductive amination and provides diastereoselective access to both C-3 epimers of the 5,9-trans-substituted indolizines. The naturally occurring indolizidines 195B and 223AB have been synthesized using this methodology.

Aminomethyl-Substituted Ferrocenes and Derivatives: Straightforward Synthetic Routes, Structural Characterization, and Electrochemical Analysis

2013

A variety of aminomethyl-substituted ferrocenes and the parent compounds (iminomethyl)ferrocenes, azaferrocenophanes, and diferrocenylamines can be selectively synthesized from reductive amination of 1,1′-diformylferrocene or formylferrocene. The optimized one- or two-step reactions have delivered 13 new compounds, isolated in 65–97% yields, which include tertiary (ferrocenylmethyl)amines and azaferrocenophanes by using NaBH(OAc)3 as a mild reducing agent and (iminomethyl)ferrocenes and secondary (ferrocenylmethyl)amines by using LiAlH4. X-ray structures of representative members of these ferrocene derivative families have evidenced the preferred conformation adopted by ferrocene backbones,…

Diversity-Oriented Stereocontrolled Synthesis of Some Piperidine- and Azepane-Based Fluorine-Containing β-Amino Acid Derivatives

2020

AbstractStructural diversity-oriented synthesis of some azaheterocyclic β-amino acid derivatives has been accomplished by selective functionalization of readily available cyclodienes. The stereocontrolled synthetic concept was based on the oxidative ring cleavage of unsaturated cyclic β-amino acids derived from cycloalkadiene, followed by ring closing with double reductive amination, which furnished some conformationally restricted β-amino acid derivatives with a piperidine or azepane core.

Synthesis of fluorinated piperidine and azepane β-amino acid derivatives

2016

Abstract A convenient and robust stereocontrolled procedure has been developed for the synthesis of novel trifluoromethyl-containing piperidine and azepane β-amino ester stereoisomers. The synthesis started from readily available unsaturated bicyclic β-lactams and was based on oxidative cleavage of the ring C C double bond followed by ring closure of the diformyl intermediates in the presence of 2,2,2-trifluoroethylamine hydrochloride through reductive amination. The synthetic procedure has efficiently been extended towards the synthesis of mono- and difluorinated analogs.

Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of enantiomerically pure endo-configured KOR agonists with 2-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane scaffold

2021

Conformationally restricted bicyclic KOR agonists 10 with an endo configured amino moiety were synthesized to analyze the bioactive conformation of conformationally flexible KOR agonists such as 2-5. A seven-step, chiral pool synthesis starting with (S)-configured 4-oxopiperidine-2-carboxylate 13 was developed. cis and trans configured diesters 12 were obtained in a 3:1 ratio via hydrogenation of the α,β unsaturated ester 14. After establishment of the bicyclic scaffold, a diastereoselective reductive amination of ketone 11 provided exclusively the endo configured bicyclic amines 10a,b. The 3:1 mixtures of enantiomers were separated by chiral HPLC, respectively, leading to enantiomerically …

Novel 2,6-disubstituted phenylboronic compounds - Synthesis, crystal structures, solution behaviour and reactivity

2015

Abstract 2,6-Diformylphenylboronic acid has been synthesized and characterized both in the solid state as well as in solution. In crystal, an unusual structural pattern has been found with the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds by B(OH) 2 and CHO groups as well as water molecules. In solution tautomeric equilibrium with the formation of oxaborole ring by one of the formyl groups was proved on the basis of multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. The title compound reacts with secondary mono- and diamines to form various types of substituted benzoxaboroles, which have been characterized by XRD and spectroscopic methods.
