Studies Toward the Total Synthesis and Stereochemical Assignment of Microspinosamide

Efforts toward the total synthesis and stereochemical assignment of the cyclic depsipeptide natural product microspinosamide are described. A single diastereoisomer was targeted corresponding to the predicted structure of the natural product incorporating a (2S, 3R)-β-hydroxy-p-bromophenylalanine residue. Assembly was achieved through the initial synthesis of a cyclic depsipeptide and a linear peptide thioester fragment by solid-phase peptide synthesis, followed by fusion of the two fragments through a native chemical ligation-oxidation protocol. Extensive spectroscopic analysis showed structural differences to the isolated natural product, suggesting that a diastereoisomer of microspinosamide had been synthesised. This work lays the foundation for the future synthesis of the correct diastereoisomer.

Herein, we design and synthesize a series of photoactivatable β-diarylsydnone-l-alanines (DASAs), which have excellent photo-reactivity with high fluorescence turn-on toward alkenes in a biocompatible environment. The environmental sensing properties of t

As an important member of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein, myeloid cell leukemia sequence 1 (Mcl-1) protein is an attractive target for cancer therapy. In this study, a new series of pyrrolidine derivatives as Mcl-1 inhibitors were developed by mainly modifying the amino acid side chain of compound 1. Among them, compound 18 (Ki= 0.077 μM) exhibited better potent inhibitory activities towards Mcl-1 protein compared to positive control Gossypol (Ki= 0.18 μM). In addition, compound 40 possessed good antiproliferative activities against PC-3 cells (Ki= 8.45 μM), which was the same as positive control Gossypol (Ki= 7.54 μM).
