RCM-based synthesis of a variety of beta-C-glycosides and their in vitro anti-solid tumor activity.

The synthesis of a number of biologically relevant C-glycosides has been carried out through the use of an esterification-ring-closing metathesis (RCM) strategy. The required acid precursors were readily prepared via a number of standard chemical transformations followed by dehydrative coupling of these acids with several olefin alcohols 1 to yield the precursor esters 3 in excellent yield. Methylenation of the esters 3 was followed by RCM and in situ hydroboration-oxidation of the formed glycals to furnish the protected beta-C-glycosides 6 in good overall yield. Several examples were converted to the corresponding C-glycoglycerolipids 17 and subsequently screened against solid-tumor cell lines for in vitro differential cytotoxicity.

Neighboring group participation of 9-anthracenylmethyl group in glycosylation: preparation of unusual C-glycosides.

[reaction: see text] A coupling of 2-O-arylmethylated D-glucose-derived thioglycosides with various alcohols in the presence of DMTST as an activator is described. The requisite glycosyl donors are efficiently prepared by one-pot procedures. When the aryl groups are phenyl, p-methoxyphenyl, 1-naphthyl, and 2-naphthyl groups, a mixture of alpha- and beta-anomeric O-glycosides is obtained under the conditions, whereas when the aryl group is the 9-anthracenyl group, a highly stereoselective formation of the unusual C-glycosides in good yields via neighboring group participation of the 9-anthracenylmethyl group followed by coupling with a variety of alcohols is observed. Three new chiral centers including a quaternary carbon are created in one single step.

Synthesis of double C-glycoside analogue of sTn.

A sTn double C-glycoside, sTn analogue 2, was synthesized using samarium chemistry developed in our laboratory. Complications in the oxidation reaction affording aldehyde acceptor were overcome by double protection of amide and the use of a room-temperature ionic liquid as solvent. Studies are underway to conjugate the sTn double C-glycoside hapten 2 to KLH carrier protein for biological evaluation as a vaccine.

Four orders of magnitude rate increase in artificial enzyme-catalyzed aryl glycoside hydrolysis.

[reaction: see text] (6AR,6DR)-6A,6D-Di-C-cyano-beta-cyclodextrin (1) and 6A,6D-di-C-cyano-alpha-cyclodextrin (2) were synthesized and shown to catalyze hydrolysis of aryl glycosides into glucose and phenol with a reaction following Michaelis-Menten kinetics. At pH 8.0 and 59 degrees C hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl alpha-glucopyranoside was catalyzed by 1 with KM = 10.5 +/- 1.5 mM, kcat = 1.42(+/-0.09) x 10(-4) s(-1), and kcat/kuncat = 7922. Catalysis was observed with a concentration of 1 as low as 10 microM. Hydrolysis of the other aryl glycosides containing stereochemical variation in the sugar-moiety and 4-nitro-, 2-nitro-, 2-aldehydo-, and 2,4-dinitro- were also catalyzed by 1 and 2 with kcat/kuncat ranging from 4 to 7100. Hydrolysis of a phenyl beta-d-glucoside or the thioglycoside tolylthio beta-D-glucoside was also catalyzed. From a series of prepared analogues of 1 it was found that the catalysis was associated with the hydroxyl groups alpha to the nitril groups. The monocyanohydrin 6-C-cyano-beta-cyclodextrin (3) was also found to catalyze the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl beta-glucopyranoside with kcat/kuncat = 1356. It was proposed that the cyclodextrin cyanohydrins 1-3 catalyze the hydrolysis by general acid catalysis on the bound substrate.

[13C,15N]2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-D-aldohexoses and their methyl glycosides: synthesis and NMR investigations of J-couplings involving 1H, 13C, and 15N.

[reaction: see text] A series of 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-[1-13C]aldohexoses and their methyl glycosides was prepared with use of a simplified cyanohydrin reduction route. Four d-aldopentosylamines (arabino, lyxo, ribo, xylo) were prepared from the corresponding D-aldopentoses by reaction with NH3(g) in MeOH solvent, isolated in solid form, and characterized by 13C and 1H NMR. Hydrolysis of beta-D-xylopyranosylamine was studied using 13C-labeled substrates to establish optimal solution conditions for cyanohydrin formation. Major hydrolytic intermediates were observed and identified by time-lapse 1D and 2D NMR analyses of reaction mixtures. The aldopentosylamines were subsequently employed in cyanohydrin reduction reactions with K13CN to yield C2-epimeric [1-13C]2-aminosugars, which were separated by chromatography on ion-exchange columns. N-Acetylation and methyl glycosidation followed by chromatography gave pure 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-[1-13C]aldohexopyranosides. J(CH) and J(CC) spin-spin coupling constants involving the labeled anomeric carbon were measured and compared to those observed previously in methyl D-[1-13C]aldohexopyranosides. In parallel studies, theoretical J-couplings were calculated in model N-acetylated aldopyranosides using density functional theory (DFT) to predict the effect of OH vs NHCOCH(3) substitution at C2 on J(CH) and J(CC) values in aldopyranosyl rings. The synthetic method was also modified to accommodate (15)N- and (13)C-labeling within the N-acetyl side-chain, and some J-couplings involving 1H, 13C, and 15N atoms in 2-[1,2-13C2;15N]acetamido-2-deoxy-D-[1-13C]glucose were measured and interpreted.

Synthesis of a C-glycoside analogue of beta-D-galactosyl hydroxylysine and incorporation in a glycopeptide from type II collagen.

A stereoselective synthesis of the C-glycoside analogue of beta-D-galactosyl-(5R,2S)-hydroxylysine (1) has been achieved starting from tetra-O-benzyl-D-galactopyranosyl lactone. The synthesis involved establishment of three stereogenic centers in an unambiguous manner. A facially selective Grignard reaction followed by a silane reduction was used for the anomeric position of the C-galactose residue. An Evans allylation established the configuration of the delta-aminomethylene group of the hydroxylysine moiety, whereas an asymmetric hydrogenation utilizing Burk's catalyst was used for the alpha-amino acid moiety itself. The synthesis was completed in 17 steps with an overall yield of 18%, resulting in the most complex and functionalized C-glycoside analogue of a naturally occurring glycosylated amino acid prepared to date. In addition, amino acid 1 was incorporated in a glycopeptide from type II collagen known to be crucial for the response of autoimmune T cells obtained in models of rheumatoid arthritis. A preliminary immunological study revealed that four out of five members in a panel of T cell hybridomas were able to recognize this C-linked glycopeptide when presented by A(q) class II MHC molecules.

Calyculaglycosides D and E, novel cembrane glycosides from the Caribbean gorgonian octocoral Eunicea species and structural revision of the aglycon of calyculaglycosides A-C.

A recent investigation of the constituents of Eunicea sp. from Colombia and Puerto Rico has provided two novel cembrane glycosides, calyculaglycosides D (6) and E (7), and a new cembranoid diterpene in free form, (+)-nephthenol (4). Metabolites 6 and 7 possess a glycosyl-fused cembrane skeleton with a 1S configuration. Biogenetic considerations have led to a revision of the previously assigned dilophol skeleton of calyculaglycosides A-C, which was confirmed by extensive 2D NMR investigation and a chemical degradation study. Consequently, the true structures for calyculaglycosides A-C are 8-10, respectively, not 1-3. This is the first report of the occurrence of marine diterpene glycosides having a cembrane aglycon.

Anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor-promoting effects of cucurbitane glycosides from the roots of Bryonia dioica.

Seven new triterpene glycosides, bryoniosides A-G (1-7), have been isolated along with two known triterpene glycosides, cabenoside D (8) and bryoamaride (9), from a methanol extract of the roots of Bryoniadioica. The structures of 1-7 were determined on the basis of spectroscopic and chemical methods. Six compounds, 2, 3, 5, and 7-9, and 11 compounds, 1-9, bryodulcosigenin (10), and bryosigenin (11), respectively, were evaluated for their inhibitory effects on 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced inflammation (1 microg/ear) in mice and on Epstein-Barr virus early antigen (EBV-EA) activation induced by TPA. All compounds tested showed marked anti-inflammatory effects, with 50% inhibitory doses (ID(50)) of 0.2-0.6 mg per ear. In addition, all of the compounds tested except for compound 5 showed potent inhibitory effects on EBV-EA induction (100% inhibition at 1 x 10(3) mol ratio/TPA).

Four new neuroprotective iridoid glycosides from Scrophularia buergeriana roots.

Four new iridoid glycosides were isolated from a 90% MeOH extract of Scrophularia buergeriana roots and characterized as 8-O-E-p-methoxycinnamoylharpagide (1), 8-O-Z-p-methoxycinnamoylharpagide (2), 6'-O-E-p-methoxycinnamoylharpagide (3), and 6'-O-Z-p-methoxycinnamoylharpagide (4), respectively. In addition, three known iridoids were identified as E-harpagoside (5), Z-harpagoside (6), and harpagide (7). Compounds 1-7 significantly attenuated glutamate-induced neurotoxicity when added to primary cultures of rat cortical cells at concentrations ranging from 100 nM to 10 microM. The results obtained indicate that the iridoid glycosides isolated from S. buergeriana have significant protective effects against glutamate-induced neurodegeneration in primary cultures of rat cortical neurons.

Lyngbyaloside B, a new glycoside macrolide from a Palauan marine cyanobacterium, Lyngbya sp.

A Palauan collection of the marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya sp., which had already afforded diverse peptide-based cytotoxins, also yielded a new glycoside macrolide exhibiting slight cytotoxicity. The compound was termed lyngbyaloside B (1) due to its structural analogy to the previously isolated lyngbyaloside (2). Lyngbyaloside B (1) appears to be only the third glycoside macrolide and second brominated compound of its kind from a marine cyanobacterium. Its gross structure was determined by a combination of NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometric techniques. The relative stereochemistry for the 12 stereocenters is proposed on the basis of proton-proton spin-coupling constants and ROESY data.
