The nuclear hormone receptor RORγ regulates transcriptional genes involved in the production of pro-inflammatory interleukin IL-17 which has been linked to autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and inflammatory bowel disease. This activity is modulated through a protein-protein interaction involving activation function 2 (AF2) helix on ligand binding domain conserved LXXLL motif coactivator proteins. Our goal was develop specific inverse agonist that would help...
The enantioselective total synthesis of the cytotoxic plecomacrolide natural product formamicin (1) is described. Key aspects this include efficient transacetalation reactions MOM ethers 28 and 38 to form seven-membered formyl acetals 29 39, a late-stage Suzuki cross-coupling reaction highly functionalized vinyl boronic acid 6 iodide 7, β-selective glycosidation β-hydroxy ketone 4 with 2,6-dideoxy-2-iodoglucopyranosyl fluoride 3, global desilylation penultimate intermediate 77 mediated by in...

Propargylic 1,2-anti-diol derivatives 2 and 10 are prepared in high yield excellent diastereoselectivity by addition of α-alkoxypropargylstannanes 4a 4b to aldehydes the presence BuSnCl3. We also introduce use KF on Celite as a convenient mild reagent for removal organotin waste products these reactions.
An efficient and highly concise synthesis of 6, corresponding to the C(1)−C(11) fragment formamicin (1), has been accomplished by a route utilizing diastereoselective lactate aldol reaction set C(6) tertiary ether TES−OTf mediated transketalization methoxymethyl C(25) PMB seven-membered methylene acetal unit (see 37 → 38).
Dialkylzincs couple with 4-acetoxy-6-alkyl-1,3-dioxanes in the presence of trimethylsilyl triflate (TMSOTf) to form trans-4,6-dialkyl-1,3-dioxanes excellent diastereoselectivities. These dioxanes could be deprotected yield anti-1,3-diols. A variety functional groups are tolerated dialkylzinc, although silyl and benzyl ethers led diminished Substituents at C5-position dioxane ring have little effect on selectivity, while small C2 (acetal) substituents slightly reduced diastereoselectivity....
[reaction: see text] Chiral 1-aryl-6-(hydroxymethyl)-2-ketopiperazines can be prepared via an operationally simple, 6-exo epoxide ring-opening cyclization to form the ketopiperazine C6-N1 bond in high yields and with excellent enantiomeric purity.
A mouse-based assay (SmartCube) was used for both screening and lead optimization of a novel antipsychotic.
