1,3,5-Triazepan-2,6-diones as Structurally Diverse and Conformationally Constrained Dipeptide Mimetics: Identification of Malaria Liver Stage Inhibitors from a Small Pilot Library

Heterocycles as a Peptidomimetic Scaffold: Solid-Phase Synthesis Strategies

Peptidomimetics are a privileged class of pharmacophores that exhibit improved physicochemical and biological properties. Solid-phase synthesis is a powerful tool for gaining rapid access to libraries of molecules from small molecules to biopolymers and also is widely used for the synthesis of peptidomimetics. Small molecules including heterocycles serve as a core for hundreds of drugs, including peptidomimetic molecules. This review covers solid-phase synthesis strategies for peptidomimetics molecules based on heterocycles.

Advances in 1,3,5-triazepines chemistry

This study reported the chemistry of 1,3,5-triazepines. Heterocyclic 1,3,5-triazepines are mono and fused cycles.

5-(3,4-Dimethoxybenzyl)-7-isopropyl-1,3,5-triazepane-2,6-dione acetonitrile solvate refined using a multipolar atom model

The crystal structure of the title compound, C(16)H(23)N(3)O(4).CH(3)CN, was refined using a multipolar atom model transferred from an experimental electron-density database. The refinement showed some improvement in crystallographic statistical indices compared with the independent atom model. The triazepane ring adopts a twist-boat conformation. In the crystal structure, the molecule forms intermolecular contacts with 14 different neighbours. There are two N-H...O and one C-H...O intermolecular hydrogen bond.

InSilico-Guided Target Identification of a Scaffold-Focused Library: 1,3,5-Triazepan-2,6-diones as Novel Phospholipase A2 Inhibitors

A collection of 2150 druggable active sites from the Protein Data Bank was screened by high-throughput docking to identify putative targets for five representative molecules of a combinatorial library sharing a 1,3,5-triazepan-2,6-dione scaffold. Five targets were prioritized for experimental evaluation by computing enrichment in individual protein entries among the top 2% scoring targets. Out of the five proposed proteins, secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) was shown to be a true target for a panel of 1,3,5-triazepan-2,6-diones which exhibited micromolar affinities toward two human sPLA2 members.

Porous 3-D honeycomb architecture by self-assembly of helical H-bonded molecular tapes

Enantiopure dipeptide-derived 1,3,5-triazepan-2,6-diones and form H-bonded 3(1) helical molecular tapes with P chirality in the solid state; in the case of , these columnar tapes self-assemble through aromatic-aromatic interactions to give hollow tubular structures.
