Page/Page column 110-111, (2021/10/02)
Lysosomally accumulated substances that release a nitroxy group, or a short chain fatty acid or a product of anaerobic metabolism or a thiol or a sulfide often from an ester or similar labile linkage have anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and anti-bacterial activity. They are useful in treating infectious, inflammatory and malignant disease and are immune stimulatory, promote zinc uptake, disable endosomal reactions and synergise anti-viral action of protease inhibitors. The compounds are useful for the treatment of bacterial, viral and mixed pneumonias.
Chemoenzymatic Preparation of Asymmetrized Tris(hydroxymethyl)methane (THYM*) and of Asymmetrized Bis(hydroxymethyl)acetaldehyde (BHYMA*) as New Highly Versatile Chiral Building Blocks

A series of asymmetrized tris(hydroxymethyl)methanes 2 and bis(hydroxymethyl)acetaldehydes 3 have been prepared in both enantiomeric forms through a chemoenzymatic methodology.The key step is the highly enantioselective PPL-catalyzed monohydrolysis of 2(E)-alkenyl-1,3-diacetoxypropanes 25-27.A careful study on the effect of unsaturations adjacent to the prochiral center in a series of 2-substituted 1,3-diacetoxypropanes has confirmed the suggested beneficial effect of a ? system in that position but has also unveiled an unprecedented dramatic effect of double-bond configuration on enantioselectivity.A new empirical model for the interpretation of these and other results, based both on polarity and steric arguments, is proposed.This study provides a general protocol for the efficient synthesis of asymmetrized 1,3-propanediols bearing in position 2 saturated or unsaturated carbon chains.
