Influence of hydrogen bonding in competition with lattice interactions on carbonyl coordination at phosphorus. Implications for phosphoryl transfer activated states.

A series of phosphorus compounds containing carboxyl groups that serve as mimics for amino acid residues was synthesized. The series was composed of the phosphonium salts 1A, 1B, and 2, the anionic phosphines 3A and 3B, and the anionic phosphine oxide 4. X-ray structural analysis revealed that P-O coordination occurred in the presence of extensive hydrogen bonding and led to pseudo or regular trigonal bipyramidal geometries. (31)P chemical shifts indicated retention of the basic coordination geometries in solution. The two forms observed for 1 and 3 revealed the influence of hydrogen bonding on the P-O donor interactions while 2 and 4 showed the influence of molecular packing effects in competition with hydrogen bonding interactions. The results suggest that phosphoryl transfer enzyme mechanisms should benefit by taking into account P-O donor interactions by residues at active sites that can be manipulated by hydrogen bonding and molecular packing effects in enhancing nucleophilic attack at phosphorus centers.

Bifunctional activation and racemization in the catalytic asymmetric Aza-Baylis-Hillman reaction.

The mechanism of bifunctional activation in the asymmetric aza-Baylis-Hillman (aza-BH) reaction was studied using NMR spectroscopic techniques. The reaction involves rate-limiting proton transfer in the absence of added protic species, but exhibits no autocatalysis. Brønsted acidic additives lead to substantial rate enhancements through acceleration of the elimination step. Furthermore, it was found that phosphine catalysts either alone or in combination with protic additives can cause racemization of the aza-BH product by proton exchange at the stereogenic center. This indicates that the spatial arrangement of a bifunctional chiral catalyst for the asymmetric aza-BH reaction is crucial not only for the stereodifferentiation within the catalytic cycle but also for the prevention of subsequent racemization.

Diverse modes of reactivity of dialkyl azodicarboxylates with P(III) compounds: synthesis, structure, and reactivity of products other than the Morrison-Brunn-Huisgen intermediate in a Mitsunobu-type reaction.

The reactivity of diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD)/diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (DIAD) with P(III) compounds bearing oxygen or nitrogen substituents is explored. Compounds with structures quite different from that of Morrison-Brunn-Huisgen intermediate R'(3)P(+)N(CO(2)R)N(-)(CO(2)R) (1), observed in the Mitsunobu reaction, have been established by using X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. Thus reactions with X(6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O)(2)P-NH-t-Bu [X = S (8), CH(2) (9)] or XP(mu-N-t-Bu)(2)P-NH-t-Bu [X = Cl (14) or NH-t-Bu (15)] and DEAD/DIAD lead to phosphinimine-carbamate-type of products X[6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O](2)P[N-t-Bu][N(CO(2)R)NH(CO(2)R)] [X = S, R = Et (16); X = CH(2), R = Et (17); X = CH(2), R = i-Pr (18)] or XP(mu-N-t-Bu)(2)P(N-t-Bu)[N-(CO(2)-i-Pr)-N(H)(CO(2)-i-Pr) [X = Cl (19), NH-t-Bu (20)]. Treatment of 19 with 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol afforded the product [(CF(3)CH(2)O)P(mu-N-t-Bu)(2)P(+)(NH-t-Bu)[N(CO(2)-i-Pr)(HNCO(2)-i-Pr)]][Cl(-)] (21) whose structure is close to one of the intermediates proposed in the Mitsunobu reaction. The isocyanate CH(2)(6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O)(2)P-NCO (10) underwent 1,3-(P,C) cycloaddition with DEAD/DIAD to lead to CH(2)(6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O)(2)P[N(CO(2)R)N(CO(2)R)-C(O)-N] [R = Et (22), i-Pr (23)]. Reaction of 22-23 with 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol or catechol leads to novel tetracoordinate CH(2)(6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O)(2)P(2,2'-OC(10)H(6)-C(10)H(6)-OH)[NC(O)-(CO(2)R)NH(CO(2)R)] [R = Et (24), i-Pr (25)] or pentacoordinate CH(2)(6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O)(2)P(1,2-O(2)C(6)H(4))[NHC(O)-N(CO(2)R)NH(CO(2)R)] [R = Et (26), i-Pr (27)] compounds in which the original NCO residue is retained; this mode of reactivity is quite different from that observed for the MBH betaine 1. In 27, the nitrogen, rather than the oxygen, occupies an apical position of the trigonal bipyramidal phosphorus violating the commonly assumed preference rules for apicophilicity. It is shown that the previously reported azide derivative 3, obtained from the reaction of 11 with DIAD, undergoes a Curtius-type rearrangement to lead to the fused cyclodiphosphazane [(CH(2)(6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O)(2))P(OC(O-i-Pr)NN(CO(2)-i-Pr)N)](2) (28); this compound is in equilibrium with its monomeric form in solution at >300 K. Finally, reaction of S(6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O)(2)P(OPh) (13) with DIAD gave the hexacoordinate compound S[6-t-Bu-4-Me-C(6)H(2)O](2)P(OPh)[N(CO(2)-i-Pr)NC(O-i-Pr)O] (30) with an intramolecular S-->P bond. X-ray crystallographic evidence for compounds 16, 19, 21, 22, 25, 27, 28, and 30 has been provided.

Asymmetric synthesis of 5-arylcyclohexenones by rhodium(I)-catalyzed conjugate arylation of racemic 5-(trimethylsilyl)cyclohexenone with arylboronic acids.

[reaction: see text] A catalytic asymmetric conjugate arylation of racemic 5-(trimethylsilyl)cyclohex-2-enone with arylboronic acids was catalyzed by 3 mol % chiral amidophosphane- or BINAP-Rh(I) in dioxane-water (10:1) to afford trans- and cis-3-aryl-5-(trimethylsilyl)cyclohexanones in high enantioselectivity. Dehydrosilylation of the product mixture with cupric chloride in DMF gave 5-arylcyclohex-2-enones with up to 93% ee in good yield. Enantiofacial selectivity with chiral phosphane-Rh(I) exceeds the trans-diastereoselectivity that is maintained in the achiral or racemic phosphane-Rh(I)-catalyzed conjugate arylation of 5-(trimethylsilyl)cyclohexenone.

Reduction of S-sulpho groups by tributylphosphine: an improved method for the recombination of insulin chains.

All 4 S-sulpho groups of the S-sulpho substituted insulin A-chain could be removed with 4 mol of tributylphosphine. Reduction of a 1:1 mixture of both S-sulpho insulin chains with tributylphosphine followed by air oxidation gave insulin which was isolated in pure form and high yield. Removal of excess reducing agent was not necessary, in contrast to the usual procedures employing thiols for the reduction step. This constitutes a rapid and simple method for the generation of insulin from its chains. A new method for the purification of S-sulpho-A-chain has been developed.

P-O donor action from carboxylate anions with phosphorus in the presence of hydrogen bonding. A model for phosphoryl-transfer enzymes.

A series of phosphorus compounds (1-3) containing anionic carboxylate groups were synthesized by treatment of the respective neutral precursor acid forms B-D with amines, which also served to introduce hydrogen-bonding interactions. The compounds, subjected to X-ray structure analysis, resulted in hexacoordinated anionic phosphoranates 1A and 1B, a pseudo-trigonal-bipyramidal anionic phosphine (2), and a trigonal-bipyramidal anionic phosphine oxide (3). The structures revealed that P-O donor coordination was present in all members of the anionic series 1-3 and resulted in stronger interactions than existed in the precursor neutral acid forms B-D as measured by the presence of shorter P-O distances. Evaluation of the energies of the donor interactions relative to the energies of the hydrogen bonds that were present showed that the donor energies now exceeded the hydrogen bond strengths. (31)P chemical shifts indicated that the basic coordination geometries were retained in solution. Both 1A and 1B are chiral and exist as racemates. The results suggest that mechanisms of phosphoryl-transfer enzymes should benefit by taking into account donor interactions at phosphorus by residues at active sites in addition to the inclusion of hydrogen bonding. Reference is made to specific phosphoryl-transfer enzymes.

Synthetic peptide vaccines: palmitoylation of peptide antigens by a thioester bond increases immunogenicity.

Synthetic peptides have frequently been used to immunize animals. However, peptides less than about 20 to 30 amino acids long are poor immunogens. In general, to increase its immunogenicity, the presentation of the peptide should be improved, and molecular weight needs to be increased. Many attempts have been made to couple peptide immunogens to different carrier proteins [e.g. keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH) or ovalbumin]. This leads to very complex structures, however. We used a controlled conjugation of a peptide to a single long-chain fatty acid like palmitic acid by a thioester or an amide bond. It was found that these S-palmitoylated peptides were much more immunogenic than N-palmitoylated peptides and at least similar to KLH-conjugated peptides with respect to appearance and magnitude of induced antibodies (canine parvovirus) or immunocastration effect (gonadotropin-releasing hormone). For chemical synthesis of thioesters, we established conditions for solution and solid-phase synthesis. In both phases, Cys(SBut) could only be deprotected efficiently using phosphines, and S-acylation was accomplished using standard coupling at pH 5. We speculate that, in vivo, the presence of an appropriate fatty acid chain, chemically linked through a labile thioester bond, greatly enhances immunogenicity, because it represents a favourable substrate for cleavage by cellular thioesterases in cells of the immune system.

Nonionic surfactants regioselective synthesis of fatty acid esters of alpha- and beta-glucopyranose.

Lipophilic esters of saccharides belong to the family of nonionic surfactants widely employed in pharmaceutical and cosmetics formulations. A very simple method is presented whereby 6-O-esters of alpha- and beta-glucose can be prepared and isolated. Good results have been obtained in the synthesis of 6-O-oleyl derivatives by simple acylation with appropriate oleyl chloride. The condensing agent bis(2-oxo-3-oxazolidinyl) phosphinic chloride (BOP-Cl) allows the preparations of the same esters with better regioselectivity but with yields strongly dependent on the aliphatic chain length of the carboxylic acids employed.

A structural homologue of colipase in black mamba venom revealed by NMR floating disulphide bridge analysis.

The solution structure of mamba intestinal toxin 1 (MIT1), isolated from Dendroaspis polylepis polylepis venom, has been determined. This molecule is a cysteine-rich polypeptide exhibiting no recognised family membership. Resistance to MIT1 to classical specific endoproteases produced contradictory NMR and biochemical information concerning disulphide-bridge topology. We have used distance restraints allowing ambiguous partners between S atoms in combination with NMR-derived structural information, to correctly determine the disulphide-bridge topology. The resultant solution structure of MIT1, determined to a resolution of 0.5 A, reveals an unexpectedly similar global fold with respect to colipase, a protein involved in fatty acid digestion. Colipase exhibits an analogous resistance to endoprotease activity, indicating for the first time the possible topological origins of this biochemical property. The biochemical and structural homology permitted us to propose a mechanically related digestive function for MIT1 and provides novel information concerning snake venom protein evolution.

Synthesis and application of phosphinoferrocenylaminophosphine ligands for asymmetric catalysis.

A new class of bidentate ligands utilizing a phosphine-aminophosphine structure has been prepared on a ferrocenylethyl backbone in a straightforward and scalable fashion from acetylferrocene. The unique property of the alpha-ferrocenyl carbonium ion that allows the replacement of a variety of "leaving groups" with retention of configuration greatly facilitates the synthesis, and a number of ligands have been prepared by varying the nitrogen and phosphorus substituents on the aminophosphine. These readily prepared phosphinoferrocenylaminophosphines, known as BoPhoz ligands, show surprising hydrolytic and air stability, with no degradation after 3 years open to the air. The rhodium complexes of these ligands show exceedingly high enantioselectivities (generally >95% ee) and activities often in excess of 50,000 catalyst turnovers per hour for the asymmetric hydrogenation of a wide variety of dehydro-alpha-amino acid and itaconic acid derivatives. They also show high activity and good to excellent enantioselectivity for the hydrogenation of a number of alpha-ketoesters.

X-ray structure of isoaspartyl dipeptidase from E.coli: a dinuclear zinc peptidase evolved from amidohydrolases.

L-aspartyl and L-asparaginyl residues in proteins spontaneously undergo intra-residue rearrangements forming isoaspartyl/beta-aspartyl residues linked through their side-chain beta-carboxyl group with the following amino acid. In order to avoid accumulation of isoaspartyl dipeptides left over from protein degradation, some bacteria have developed specialized isoaspartyl/beta-aspartyl zinc dipeptidases sequentially unrelated to other peptidases, which also poorly degrade alpha-aspartyl dipeptides. We have expressed and crystallized the 390 amino acid residue isoaspartyl dipeptidase (IadA) from E.coli, and have determined its crystal structure in the absence and presence of the phosphinic inhibitor Asp-Psi[PO(2)CH(2)]-LeuOH. This structure reveals an octameric particle of 422 symmetry, with each polypeptide chain organized in a (alphabeta)(8) TIM-like barrel catalytic domain attached to a U-shaped beta-sandwich domain. At the C termini of the beta-strands of the beta-barrel, the two catalytic zinc ions are surrounded by four His, a bridging carbamylated Lys and an Asp residue, which seems to act as a proton shuttle. A large beta-hairpin loop protruding from the (alphabeta)(8) barrel is disordered in the free peptidase, but forms a flap that stoppers the barrel entrance to the active center upon binding of the dipeptide mimic. This isoaspartyl dipeptidase shows strong topological homology with the alpha-subunit of the binickel-containing ureases, the dinuclear zinc dihydroorotases, hydantoinases and phosphotriesterases, and the mononuclear adenosine and cytosine deaminases, which all are catalyzing hydrolytic reactions at carbon or phosphorous centers. Thus, nature has adapted an existing fold with catalytic tools suitable for hydrolysis of amide bonds to the binding requirements of a peptidase.

Hindered axial-equatorial carbonyl exchange in an Fe(CO)(4)(PR(3)) complex of a rigid bicyclic phosphine.

Variable-temperature (13)C NMR spectra for a series of Fe(CO)(4)(PR(3)) complexes ligated by phosphatri(3-methylindolyl)methane (1), phosphatri(pyrrolyl)methane (2), P(N-3-methylindolyl)(3) (3), and P(N-pyrrolyl)(3) (4) are reported. Ligand 2 was prepared by reaction of tri(pyrrolyl)methane with PCl(3) in THF and Et(3)N. Compound 2 is stable to methanolysis, hydrolysis, and aerial oxidation at room temperature. Reactions of 2 with selenium powder and Rh(acac)(CO)(2) yield phosphatri(pyrrolyl)methane selenide (5) and Rh(acac)(CO)(2) (6), respectively. The carbonyl stretching frequency in the IR spectrum of 6 and the magnitude of (1)J(Se)(-)(P) in the (31)P NMR spectrum of 5 indicate that 2 is a strong pi-acid and a weak sigma-base, commensurate with its lack of reactivity with CH(3)I. The trend in the decreasing basicity of 2 and related phosphines and phosphites was determined to be P(NMe(2))(3) > 3 > 4 > 1 > P(OPh)(3) > 2. IR data for a series of Rh(acac)(CO)(PR(3)) complexes indicate the trend in decreasing pi-acceptor ability to be 2 approximately 1 > 4 > P(OPh)(3) > 3 > PPh(3). Phosphines 1-4 were reacted with Fe(2)(CO)(9) to yield Fe(CO)(4)(1) (7), Fe(CO)(4)(2) (8), Fe(CO)(4)(3) (9), and Fe(CO)(4)(4) (10), respectively. IR data for 7-10 support the trend in pi-acidity listed above. Variable-temperature (13)C NMR spectra for compounds 8-10 show a single doublet resonance for the carbonyls in the temperature range from -80 to 20 degrees C indicative of rapid intramolecular rearrangement of carbonyls between axial and equatorial sites. However, the (13)C NMR spectrum for 7 shows slowed axial-equatorial carbonyl exchange at 20 degrees C. The limiting slow-exchange spectrum is observed at -20 degrees C. Hindered carbonyl exchange in 7 is attributed to the rigid 3-fold symmetry and steric bulk of 1. In addition to characterization of the new compounds by NMR ((1)H, (13)C, and (31)P) spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis, compounds 2, 7, 9, and 10 were further characterized by X-ray crystallography.

Relaxometry, animal biodistribution, and magnetic resonance imaging studies of some new gadolinium (III) macrocyclic phosphinate and phosphonate monoester complexes.

The Gd3+ complexes of three new phosphorus containing tetraaza macrocycles (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetrakis (methylene ethylphosphonic acid), H4DOTEP; 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetrakis (methylene phosphonic acid monoethylester), H4DOTPME; and the corresponding n-butyl ester, H4DOTPMB) were prepared and examined for possible use as MRI contrast agents. Although thermodynamically and kinetically less stable than Gd(DOTA)- in saline and HSA solution, the stability of these new macrocyclic complexes appears to be sufficiently high for in vivo applications. NMRD relaxivity profiles of the three complexes indicate that the number of inner sphere water molecules for these chelates is < or = 1 and that the more hydrophobic chelate, Gd(DOTPMB), binds to human serum albumin (HSA). Biodistribution studies of the radioactive 153Sm or 159Gd chelates in rats, gamma imaging of the 153Sm chelates in rats, and proton MRI studies of the nonradioactive Gd3+ chelates in rabbits all indicate that the DOTPMB complexes accumulate preferentially in the liver, spleen, and small intestines while the more hydrophilic DOTEP and DOTPME complexes appear to display renal clearances similar to other low molecular weight contrast agents.

Synthesis of carbocyclic hydantocidins via regioselective and diastereoselective phosphine-catalyzed [3 + 2]-cycloadditions to 5-methylenehydantoins.

The phosphine-catalyzed [3 + 2]-cycloaddition of 5-methylenehydantoins 4 with the ylides 5, derived from addition of tributylphosphine to the 2-butynoic acid derivatives, 6a-d, gives spiro-heterocyclic products. The camphor sultam derivative 6b gives optically active products. Noteable was that the ylides derived from ethyl 2-butynoate and the 3-(2-butynoyl)-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one derivatives 6c and 6d gave spiro-heterocyclic products with reverse regioselectivities. The N,N-dibenzylprotected cycloadduct has been converted to carbocyclic hydantocidin and 6,7-diepi-carbocyclic hydantocidin.

Application of bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (DPPE) in Staudinger-type N-glycopyranosyl amide synthesis.

Bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (DPPE) reacts with pyranosyl azides derived from D-glucose and D-glucuronic acid in the presence of acid chlorides to yield the corresponding glycosyl amides. Reaction rates are comparable to those with triphenylphosphine, however, the byproduct phosphine oxide is easily removed from reaction mixtures using column chromatography. The simple and clean workup allows for the formation of collections of related compounds by parallel synthesis, and the method is also applicable to scaled-up reactions. The beta-stereochemistry of the glycosyl azide precursor is retained in all cases, which is supported by X-ray crystallography in several cases.

Novel procedures for preparing 99mTc(III) complexes with tetradentate/monodentate coordination of varying lipophilicity and adaptation to 188Re analogues.

Improved methods are presented for the preparation of 99mTc and 188Re mixed-ligand complexes with tetradentate and monodentate ligands of the general formula [MIII(Lm)(Ln)] (M = Tc, Re; Lm = NS3 or NS3COOH; Ln = isocyanide or phosphine). To avoid the undesired formation of reduced-hydrolyzed species of both metals, the preparation of complexes is performed in a two-step procedure. At first the Tc(III)- or Re(III)-EDTA complex is formed which reacts in a second step with the tripodal ligand 2,2',2' '-nitrilotris(ethanethiol) (NS3) or its carboxyl derivative NS3COOH (a) and the monodentate phosphine ligands (triphenylphosphine L1, dimethylphenylphosphine L2) or isocyanides (tert-butyl isonitrile L3, methoxyisobutyl isonitrile L4, 4-isocyanomethylbenzoic acid-L-arginine L5, 4-isocyanomethylbenzoic acid-L-arginyl-L-arginine L6, 4-isocyanomethylbenzoic acid-neurotensin(8-13) L7) to the so-called '4+1' complex. Copper(I) isocyanide complexes are used for preparing the '4+1' complexes. That facilitates storage stability and allows kit formulations, and, moreover, enables the formation of 188Re complexes in acidic solution. Only micromolar amounts of the monodentate ligand are needed, and that results in high specific activity labeling of interesting molecules. The lipophilicity of complexes can be controlled by introducing a carboxyl group into the tetradentate ligand and/or derivatization of the monodentate ligands. Furthermore, the carboxyl group enables the conjugation of biomolecules. As an example, the neurotensin derivative CN-NT(8-13) was prepared and labeled with 99mTc according to the '4+1' approach, and its behavior in vivo was studied.
