A synthetic route involving a hydantoin derivative of bicyclo [3.2.0]hept-2-ene has been investigated for the preparation of neurotransmitter analogues containing an additional acetic acid substituent on the cyclobutane ring of the potent NMDA receptor agonist trans-1-aminocyclobutane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid. X-Ray analysis showed that the major cyclobutane amino acid produced had the 2-acetic acid and 3-carboxylic acid substituents in the trans orientation as a result of epimerization during hydantoin hydrolysis.

As part of the molecular recognition studies on the phytohormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) a series of fluorinated IAA's has been examined. The phenyl ring substitution at positions 4, 5, 6 and 7 resulted in four compounds, which were analyzed. Structure–activity correlation includes the analysis of their molecular conformations, based on the X-ray diffraction and computational chemistry results, and bioactivity determinations in the Avena coleoptile and the Pisum sativum stem straight-growth tests, lipophilicity and UV absorbance. The conformations of monofluorinated IAA's and a free hormone are defined by rotations about two bonds: one describes the relative orientation of a side chain towards the indole plane and the second the orientation of the carboxylic group. The results of X-ray structure analysis revealed the folded shape of the molecules in all compounds studied. Molecular mechanics and dynamics located the folded conformation as the local minimum, but failed to detect the planar conformation as one of the local minima, which according to ab initio results on IAA and 4-CI-IAA could also be possible. Crystal data at 295 K for 4-F-IAA and at 297 K for 5-F-IAA, and at 100 K for 6-F-IAA and 7-F-IAA using Mo Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å) and Cu Kα (λ = 1.5418 Å, for 7-F-IAA), are as follows: 4-F-IAA, C10H8NO2F, Mr = 193.18, monoclinic, C2/c, a = 17.294 (5), b = 13.875 (4), c = 7.442 (4) Å, β = 103.88 (6)°, V = 1734 (1) Å3, Z = 8, Dx = 1.480 g cm−3, μ = 1.1 cm−1, F(000) = 800, R = 0.043, wR = 0.044 for 823 symmetry-independent [I ≥ 3σ(I)] reflections; 5-F-IAA, C10H8NO2F, monoclinic, P21/c, a = 19.284 (5), b = 5.083 (4), c = 9.939 (4) Å, β = 117.28 (6)°, V = 865.9 (1) Å3, Z = 4, Dx = 1.482 g cm−3, μ = 1.1  cm−1, F(000) = 400, R = 0.062, wR = 0.057 for 729 symmetry-independent [I ≥ 3σ(I)] reflections; 6-F-IAA, C10H8NO2F, monoclinic, P21/a, a = 9.360 (1), b = 5.167 (4), c = 17.751 (4) Å, β = 93.75 (1)°, V = 856.7 (8) Å3, Z = 4, Dx = 1.498 g cm−3, μ = 1.1 cm−1, F(000) = 400, R = 0.048, wR = 0.048 for 1032 symmetry-independent [I ≥ 2σ(I)] reflections; 7-F-IAA, C10H8NO2F, monoclinic, P21/a, a = 9.935 (5), b = 5.0059 (4), c = 17.610 (1) Å, β = 102.13 (1)°, V = 856.3 (1) Å3, Z = 4, Dx = 1.498 g cm−3, μ = 9.8 cm−1 (Cu Kα, F(000) = 400, R = 0.035, wR = 0.040 for 1504 symmetry-independent [I ≥ 2σ(I)] reflections.

The relative configurations of two intermediates in the synthetic route to cryptosporiopsin are clarified through the structure of 3,5-dichloro-1,4-dihydroxy-2-methylcyclopent-2-ene-1-carboxylic acid methyl ester, which was determined by single crystal X-ray techniques. The crystal was monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 7.352(1), b = 8.868 (3), c = 16.300(7) Å; β = 96.49(2)°. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to a final R of 0.057.

Imidazole Derivatives

The modification of amino acids leads to valuable building blocks for the synthesis of bioactive compounds. By keeping the amino group protected, the carboxylic acid functionality can be converted in two steps into an imidazole moiety via a Davidson-like heterocyclization. This reaction allows for a combinatorial approach, in which two positions at the heterocycle can be modified. Herein, we report the synthesis of such imidazole derivatives by employing N-protected cyclohexylalanine as the starting material. Different α-halo ketones were used and two points of diversity, positions 4 and 5, were examined. The structure of the final imidazole derivatives was confirmed by three X-ray crystal structure analyses and their protease inhibiting activities were evaluated.

The potential herbicide 2-phenoxypropenoic acid has been synthesized, and its structure has been determined by X-ray methods and refined to a residual R 0.068 for 564 observed reflections. Crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pbca with Z 8 in a cell of dimensions a 5.6547(9), b 9.263(2), c 31.76(1) � . The carboxylic acid groups form centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded cyclic dimers [O…O 2.62(1) � ], while the oxypropenoic acid side chain is essentially planar but inclined to the plane of the benzene ring [dihedral angle 71.5(7)°].

The treatment of 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-d-ribo-hexos-3-ulose with chloroform under basic conditions has yielded the normal 3-C-trichloromethyl-α-d-allofuranose derivative. Under the conditions of the modified Corey–Link reaction but with a nucleophile different from the usual azide, a range of α-substituted carboxylic acid esters (and one amide) has been obtained. A similar addition of bromoform to the ulose has formed the α-bromo methyl ester. Two attempts at forming an ‘inositol α-amino acid’ from a polyhydroxylated cyclohexanone failed. Single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are reported for (3S)-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-C-methoxycarbonyl-3-S-phenyl-3-thio-α-d-ribo-hexose, (3S)-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-S-phenyl-3-C-(phenylthio)carbonyl-3-thio-α-d-ribo-hexose, 3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-C-methoxycarbonyl-α-d-erythro-hex-3-enofuranose, 4,6-di-O-benzyl-2-C-trichloromethyl-scyllo-inositol 1,3,5-orthoformate, 2,2'-anhydro-4,6-di-O-benzyl-2-C-dichlorohydroxymethyl-scyllo-inositol 1,3,5-orthoformate, 1,3,4,5,6-penta-O-benzyl-2-C-trichloromethyl-myo-inositol, and 2-amino-1,3,4,5,6-penta-O-benzyl-2-C-cyano-2-deoxy-myo-inositol.

Absolute Stereochemistry

The absolute stereochemistry of (+)- latifolk acid has been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis to be (2S,3R,4R)-3- hydroxy-2,4-dimethyl-5-oxotetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid. The configuration of the three chiral centres is opposite to that presently recorded in the literature. Accordingly, the configuration of the pyrrolizidine alkaloid, latifoline, which includes a latifolic acid side chain, must be revised.
