A novel synthetic approach was developed for the construction of the 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline framework possessing varied functions. The synthetic strategy was based on oxidative ring opening of some indene derivatives through their C=C bond, followed by double reductive amination of the dicarbonyl intermediates with various primary alkyl- or fluoroalkylamines.

A synthetic strategy for the preparation of two orthogonally protected methyl esters of the non-proteinogenic amino acid 2,3-l-diaminopropanoic acid (l-Dap) was developed. In these structures, the base-labile protecting group 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) was paired to the p-toluensulfonyl (tosyl, Ts) or acid-labile tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) moieties. The synthetic approach to protected l-Dap methyl esters uses appropriately masked 2,3-diaminopropanols, which are obtained via reductive amination of an aldehyde prepared from the commercial amino acid Nα-Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-d-serine, used as the starting material. Reductive amination is carried out with primary amines and sulfonamides, and the process is assisted by the Lewis acid Ti(OiPr)4. The required carboxyl group is installed by oxidizing the alcoholic function of 2,3-diaminopropanols bearing the tosyl or benzyl protecting group on the 3-NH2 site. The procedure can easily be applied using the crude product obtained after each step, minimizing the need for chromatographic purifications. Chirality of the carbon atom of the starting d-serine template is preserved throughout all synthetic steps.

A concise synthesis of (16S,20S)-3β-hydroxy-5α-pregnane-20,16-carbolactam from tigogenin via the corresponding lactone is described. The most efficient synthetic route consisted of the lactone ring-opening with aminoalane reagent followed by PDC or Dess-Martin oxidation. The oxo-amide obtained was subjected to cyclization with Et3SiH/TFA or Et3SiH/Bi(TfO)3. Alternately, the lactone was converted first to the oxo-acid, which was then subjected to the microwave-assisted reductive amination. N-Alkyl derivatives were also obtained in a similar way.

The regioselective cleavage of epoxides using visible light and a catalytic dye is reported in this study as an alternative mild synthetic approach. The epoxide radical anion is generated via visible light in an electron transfer reaction, induced by non-toxic dyes, leading to ring opening and formation of the corresponding alcohol with the hydroxyl group on the less substituted carbon in excellent yields.

A concise synthetic approach to [5/5/6] tricyclic pyrrolidine core of dendrobine is reported. This methodology relies on the construction of β-hydroxylactams by NaBH4-I2 reduction followed by reaction of allylsilane with the aid of Lewis acid to generate alkenyl lactams in good yields. Further, ring-opening metathesis (ROM) followed by ring-closing metathesis (RCM) were used to assemble the [5/5/6] aza-tricyclic skeleton of dendrobine. This short synthetic route has been expanded to assemble tricyclic [5/5/8] system with pentenylboronic acid.

: The novel synthetic route to an antipsychotic drug Cariprazine was developed and demonstrated on a commercial scale. The synthesis of Cariprazine is achieved from N-(4-oxocyclohexyl) acetamide by using various reactions such as Wittig-Horner reaction, reduction of alkene, hydrolysis of ester, deacylation, amidation, reduction of weinreb amide to yield the corresponding aldehyde, and finally reductive amination of aldehyde in presence of the corresponding amine to form Cariprazine. In this article, we report a novel intermediate 2-[trans-4-(3,3-Dimethylureido)cyclohexyl]-N-methoxy-N-methylacetamide by avoiding potentially genotoxic substances/intermediates, tedious, drastic reaction conditions.

AbstractDespite six decades of efforts to synthesize peptides and proteins bearing multiple disulfide bonds, this synthetic challenge remains an unsolved problem in most targets (e.g., knotted mini proteins). Here we show a de novo general synthetic strategy for the ultrafast, high-yielding formation of two and three disulfide bonds in peptides and proteins. We develop an approach based on the combination of a small molecule, ultraviolet-light, and palladium for chemo- and regio-selective activation of cysteine, which enables the one-pot formation of multiple disulfide bonds in various peptides and proteins. We prepare bioactive targets of high therapeutic potential, including conotoxin, RANTES, EETI-II, and plectasin peptides and the linaclotide drug. We anticipate that this strategy will be a game-changer in preparing millions of inaccessible targets for drug discovery.

Aziridine derivatives involved in nucleophilic ring-opening reactions have attracted great interest, since they allow the preparation of biologically active molecules. A chemoselective and mild procedure to convert a peptide cysteine residue into lanthionine via S-alkylation on aziridine substrates is presented in this paper. The procedure relies on a post-synthetic protocol promoted by molecular sieves to prepare lanthionine-containing peptides and is assisted by microwave irradiation. In addition, it represents a valuable alternative to the stepwise approach, in which the lanthionine precursor is incorporated into peptides as a building block.
