Stereoselective synthesis of (-)-α-kainic acid and (+)-α-allokainic acid via trimethylstannyl-mediated radical carbocyclization and oxidative destannylation

(-)-α-Kainic acid (1) and its C4 epimer (+)-α-allokainic acid (2) have been prepared from L-serine. The requisite stereochemical array in (-)-α-kainic acid (1) was introduced using a trimethylstannyl radical carbocyclization of a diene, which gave the 2,3-trans/3,4-cis and 2,3-trans/3,4-trans componnds in a 2.8:1 ratio and in high yield. The destannylation of the trisubstituted pyrrolidine nucleus was achieved via an oxidative cleavage of the C-Sn bond with ceric ammonium nitrate. This provided a dimethyl acetal that was further transformed into the intended α-kainic acid. When the same radical carbocyclization was attempted on a triene, the 2,3-trans/3,4-trans and the 2,3-trans/3,4-cis adducts were obtained in a 2.5:1 ratio, respectively. This approach was used to synthesize (+)-α-allokainic acid.

A simple and efficient procedure for the multigram synthesis of both (±)-trans- and (±)-cis-1-amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)cyclopropane-1- carboxylic acid was developed. The key step of the synthesis is the addition of 1-diazo-2,2,2-trifluoroethane to methyl 2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]acrylate, followed by thermal decomposition of the resulting pyrazoline. Gram quantities of trans- and cis-1-amino-2-(trifluoromethyl)cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid were easily prepared from l-serine in one synthetic run. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart - New York.
Biocompatible Photoinduced Alkylation of Dehydroalanine for the Synthesis of Unnatural α-Amino Acids

supporting information, p. 5251 - 5255 (2021/07/20)
A site-selective alkylation of dehydroalanine to access protected unnatural amino acids is described. The protocol is characterized by the wide nature of alkyl radicals employed, mild conditions, and functional group compatibility. This protocol is further extended to access peptides, late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals, and enantioenriched amino acids.
Alcohol functionality in the fatty acid backbone of sphingomyelin guides the inhibition of blood coagulation
Mallik,Prasad,Das,Sen
, p. 3390 - 3398 (2021/02/03)
Cell-surface sphingomyelin (SM) inhibits binary and ternary complex activity of blood coagulation by an unknown mechanism. Here we show the OH functionality of SM contributes in forming the close assembly through intermolecular H-bond and through Ca2+ chelation, which restricts the protein-lipid/protein-protein interactions and thus inhibits the coagulation procedure.
