Direct High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Separation of Peptide Enantiomers: Study on Chiral Recognition by Systematic Evaluation of the Influe…
2002
All-R/all-S enantiomers of oligoalanines (Ala(n), n = 1-10) with N-terminal protection group have been separated by HPLC on chiral stationary phases based on various cinchona alkaloid selectors. Structure-enantioselectivity relationships derived by extensive selector structure optimization provided insights into binding mechanisms and chiral recognition. Their interpretation was supported by X-ray crystal structures of amino acid and dipeptide, respectively, in complex with chiral selector. Optimized selectors have bulky elements representing steric barriers and deep binding pockets that afforded very high enantioselectivities; e.g., for the all-R and all-S enantiomers of N-(3,5-dinitrobenz…
The role of fluorine in the stereoselective tandem Aza-Michael addition to acrylamide acceptors: An experimental and theoretical mechanistic study
2007
Aza-Michael additions of alpha-amino esters to fluorinated acceptors take place in a highly stereoselective manner, to give partially modified Psi-[NHCH2]retropeptides incorporating a hydrolytically stable trifluoroalanine mimic. The reaction mechanism has been investigated experimentally and theoretically, in order to explain the effect of the trifluoromethyl group on the reactivity and the origins of the experimentally observed stereocontrol. The reaction is a two-step process, involving a tandem aza-Michael addition followed by a stereoselective hydrogen transfer. Both steps are base-catalyzed. The high level of stereocontrol is the result of a combination of electrostatic interactions a…
Binding abilities of dehydropeptides towards Cu(II) and Ni(II) ions. Impact of Z–E isomerization on metal ion binding
2002
The study on the binding ability of dehydro-tri- and tetrapeptides has shown that the alpha,beta-double bond has a critical effect on the peptide coordination to metal ions. It may affect the binding of the vicinal amide nitrogens by the electronic effect and stabilize the complex due to steric effects. The (Z) isomer is the most effective in stabilizing of the complexes formed. The presence of large side chain in the dehydroamino acid residue may also be critical for the coordination mode in the metallopeptide systems.
Phosphane tuning in heteroleptic [Cu(N^N)(P^P)]+ complexes for light-emitting electrochemical cells
2019
The synthesis and characterization of five [Cu(P^P)(N^N)][PF 6 ] complexes in which P^P = 2,7-bis( tert -butyl)-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene ( t Bu 2 xantphos) or the chiral 4,5-bis(mesitylphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (xantphosMes 2 ) and N^N = 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy), 6-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine (6-Mebpy) or 6,6'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (6,6'-Me 2 bpy) are reported. Single crystal structures of four of the compounds confirm that the copper(I) centre is in a distorted tetrahedral environment. In [Cu(xantphosMes 2 )(6-Mebpy)][PF 6 ], the 6-Mebpy unit is disordered over two equally populated orientations and this disorder parallels a combination of two dynamic processe…
Pyrrolidine in Drug Discovery: A Versatile Scaffold for Novel Biologically Active Compounds
2021
AbstractThe five-membered pyrrolidine ring is one of the nitrogen heterocycles used widely by medicinal chemists to obtain compounds for the treatment of human diseases. The great interest in this saturated scaffold is enhanced by (1) the possibility to efficiently explore the pharmacophore space due to sp3-hybridization, (2) the contribution to the stereochemistry of the molecule, (3) and the increased three-dimensional (3D) coverage due to the non-planarity of the ring—a phenomenon called “pseudorotation”. In this review, we report bioactive molecules with target selectivity characterized by the pyrrolidine ring and its derivatives, including pyrrolizines, pyrrolidine-2-one, pyrrolidine-2…
Stereocontrolled synthesis of five diastereomers of trimethyl 3-aminocyclopentane-1,2,4-tricarboxylates
2013
Abstract The sterically controlled oxidative cleavage of N - protected di exo - and di endo -substituted norbornene β-amino acids/esters resulted in four trimethyl 3-aminocyclopentane-1,2,4-carboxylate diastereomers. The sodium methoxide mediated isomerization of the four diastereomers in all cases yielded the thermodynamically most stable all- trans stereoisomer as a single product.
Triphosphine-supported bimetallic Au(I)-M(I) (M = Ag, Cu) alkynyl clusters.
2014
The reactions of gold acetylides (AuC2R)n with triphosphine ligands PPh2-(CH2)n-PPh-(CH2)2-PPh2 (n = 1, dpmp; 2, dpep) in the presence of M(+) ions (M = Cu, Ag) lead to an assembly of the heterometallic clusters, the composition of which is determined by the steric bulkiness of the alkynyl groups and the flexibility of the phosphine motifs. For R = Ph, an unprecedented hexanuclear complex [Au5Cu(C2R)4(dpmp)2](2+) (1) was isolated, while for the aliphatic alkynes (R = 1-cyclohexanolyl, 2-borneolyl, 2,6-dimethyl-4-heptanolyl) a family of compounds based on a tetrametallic framework was prepared, [Au3Cu(C2R)3(dpmp)](+) (2, R = 1-cyclohexanolyl), [Au3M(C2R)3(dpep)]2(+2) (3, M = Cu, R = 1-cycloh…
Evidence that steric factors modulate reactivity of tautomeric iron-oxo species in stereospecific alkane C-H hydroxylation
2014
A new iron complex mediates stereospecific hydroxylation of alkyl C-H bonds with hydrogen peroxide, exhibiting excellent efficiency. Isotope labelling studies provide evidence that the relative reactivity of tautomerically related oxo-iron species responsible for the C-H hydroxylation reaction is dominated by steric factors This work has been supported by the European Union (the Erasmus Mundus program), the International Research Training Group Metal Sites in Biomolecules: Structures, Regulation and Mechanisms (www.biometals.eu), and COST Action CM1003.

Steric vs. electronic stereocontrol in syndio- or iso-selective ROP of functional chiral β-lactones mediated by achiral yttrium-bisphenolate complexes
2018
International audience; Origins of stereoselectivity in ROP of racemic chiral cyclic esters promoted by achiral yttrium complexes, resulting in the formation of highly heterotactic polylactide, and highly syndiotactic or, more uniquely, highly isotactic poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)s, are discussed. A close interplay between the nature of the cyclic ester, most particularly of the exocyclic functional chain installed on the chiral center of β-lactones, and the ortho-substituents installed on the phenolate rings of the ligand, results in various determining secondary interactions of steric and also electronic nature.
Synthesis, crystal and molecular-electronic structure, and kinetic investigation of two new sterically hindered isomeric forms of the dimethyl[methyl…
2017
Two new structural isomers – 2,4-dimethyl-5-[methyl(phenylsulfonyl)amino]benzenesulfonyl chloride (1) and 2,4-dimethyl-3-[methyl(phenylsulfonyl)amino]benzenesulfonyl chloride (2) were synthesized by interaction of N-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-N-methyl-benzenesulfonamide or N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N-methylbenzenesulfonamide with chlorosulfonic acid. Both compounds have been structurally characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction at 100 K.
