DMDA-PatA mediates RNA sequence-selective translation repression by anchoring eIF4A and DDX3 to GNG motifs. Nat Commun 2024; 15:7418.

Abstract
Small-molecule compounds that elicit mRNA-selective translation repression have attracted interest due to their potential for expansion of druggable space. However, only a limited number of examples have been reported to date. Here, we show that desmethyl desamino pateamine A (DMDA-PatA) represses translation in an mRNA-selective manner by clamping eIF4A, a DEAD-box RNA-binding protein, onto GNG motifs. By systematically comparing multiple eIF4A inhibitors by ribosome profiling, we found that DMDA-PatA has unique mRNA selectivity for translation repression. Unbiased Bind-n-Seq reveals that DMDA-PatA-targeted eIF4A exhibits a preference for GNG motifs in an ATP-independent manner. This unusual RNA binding sterically hinders scanning by 40S ribosomes. A combination of classical molecular dynamics simulations and quantum chemical calculations, and the subsequent development of an inactive DMDA-PatA derivative reveals that the positive charge of the tertiary amine on the trienyl arm induces G selectivity. Moreover, we identified that DDX3, another DEAD-box protein, is an alternative DMDA-PatA target with the same effects on eIF4A. Our results provide an example of the sequence-selective anchoring of RNA-binding proteins and the mRNA-selective inhibition of protein synthesis by small-molecule compounds.

Abstract
The cluster of four skipped exo-methylene substituents on the "northern" wing of limaol renders this dinoflagellate-derived marine natural product unique in structural terms. This arguably non-thermodynamic array gains kinetic stability by virtue of populating local conformations which impede isomerization to a partly or fully conjugated polyene. This analysis suggested that the difficulties encountered during the late stages of our first total synthesis of this polyketide had not been caused by an overly fragile character of this unusual substructure; rather, an unfavorable steric microenvironment about the spirotricyclic core was identified as the likely cause. To remedy the issue, the protecting groups on this central fragment were changed; in effect, this amendment allowed all strategic and practical problems to be addressed. As a result, the overall yield over the longest linear sequence was multiplied by a factor of almost five and the material throughput increased more than eighty-fold per run. Key-to-success was a gold-catalyzed spirocyclization reaction; the reasons why a Brønsted acid cocatalyst is needed and the origin of the excellent levels of selectivity were delineated. The change of the protecting groups also allowed for much improved fragment coupling processes; most notably, the sequence of a substrate-controlled carbonyl addition reaction followed by Mitsunobu inversion that had originally been necessary to affix the southern tail to the core could be replaced by a reagent controlled asymmetric allylation. Finally, a much-improved route to the "northern" sector was established by leveraging the power of asymmetric hydrogenation of a 2-pyrone derivative. Limaol was found to combine appreciable antiparasitic activity with very modest cytotoxicity.

Potent anti-coronaviral activity of pateamines and new insights into their mode of action. Heliyon 2024; 10:e33409. [PMID: 39035482 PMCID: PMC11259845 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e33409] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 06/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/20/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Pateamines, derived from the sponge Mycale hentscheli, function as inhibitors of the RNA helicase eIF4A and exhibit promising antiviral and anticancer properties. eIF4A plays a pivotal role in unwinding stable RNA structures within the 5'-UTR of selected mRNAs, facilitating the binding of the 43S preinitiation complex during translation initiation. Pateamines function by clamping RNA substrates onto the eIF4A surface, effectively preventing eIF4A from carrying out the unwinding step. Rocaglates, a compound class isolated from plants of the genus Aglaia, target the same binding pocket on eIF4A, and based on structural data, a similar mode of action has been proposed for pateamines and rocaglates. In this study, we conducted a detailed characterization of pateamines' binding mode and assessed their antiviral activity against human pathogenic coronaviruses (human coronavirus 229E (HCoV-229E), Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)). Our findings reveal significant differences in the binding behavior of pateamines compared to rocaglates when interacting with an eIF4A-RNA complex. We also observed that pateamines do not depend on the presence of a polypurine tract in the RNA substrate for efficient RNA clamping, as it is the case for rocaglates. Most notably, pateamines demonstrate potent antiviral activity against coronaviruses in the low nanomolar range. Consequently, pateamines broaden our toolbox for combating viruses that rely on the host enzyme eIF4A to conduct their viral protein synthesis, indicating a possible future treatment strategy against new or re-emerging pathogenic viruses.

Abstract
The development of stereoselective olefination using sulfur ylide-derived vinyl carbenes with diazo esters and acetals is reported. Both reactions proceed through nucleophilic addition to electrophiles at the γ-position of an in situ-generated 2-alkoxy furan intermediate. The synthetic utility of the developed method is demonstrated by the total synthesis of rubrolide E. Detailed mechanistic investigations and quantum chemical calculations provide insight into the reaction mechanism.

Abstract
Chiral cyclobutane presents as a popular motif in natural products and biologically active molecules, and its derivatives have been extensively used as key synthons in organic synthesis. Herein, we report an efficient synthetic method toward enantioenriched cyclobutane derivatives. The reaction proceeds in a cascade fashion involving Ir-catalyzed asymmetric allylic etherification and visible-light induced [2 + 2] cycloaddition. Readily available branched allyl acetates and cinnamyl alcohols are directly used as the substrates under mild reaction conditions, providing a broad range of chiral cyclobutanes in good yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to 12:1 dr, >99% ee). It is worth noting that all substrates and catalysts were simultaneously added without any separated step in this approach. The gram-scale reaction and diverse transformations of product further enhance the potential utility of this method.

Abstract
α,β-Unsaturated esters are key structural motifs widely distributed in various biologically active molecules, and their Z/E-stereoselective synthesis has always been considered highly attractive in organic synthesis. Herein, we present a >99% (E)-stereoselective one-pot synthetic approach towards β-phosphoroxylated α,β-unsaturated esters via a mild trimethylamine-catalyzed 1,3-hydrogen migration of the corresponding unconjugated intermediates derived from the solvent-free Perkow reaction between low-cost 4-chloroacetoacetates and phosphites. Versatile β,β-disubstituted (E)-α,β-unsaturated esters were thus afforded with full (E)-stereoretentivity by cleavage of the phosphoenol linkage via Negishi cross-coupling. Moreover, a stereoretentive (E)-rich mixture of a α,β-unsaturated ester derived from 2-chloroacetoacetate was obtained and both isomers were easily afforded in one operation.

Abstract
Caldorazole (1) is a novel polyketide that was isolated from a marine cyanobacterium in 2022. It is a unique natural product that exhibits potent inhibitory activity against mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I despite having no chiral centers. To establish a method for obtaining caldorazole without relying on biological resources and for constructing a useful synthetic route for studies of its structure-activity relationship, we achieved the first total synthesis of caldorazole using a convergent synthetic route.

Abstract
The dinoflagellate-derived polyether prorocentin is a co-metabolite of the archetypical serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid. Whereas a structural relationship cannot be missed and a biosynthetic link was proposed, it is currently unknown whether there is any parallel in the bioactivity profile of these natural products. However, it was insinuated in the past that the structure assigned to prorocentin might need to be revised. Indeed, re-examination of the published spectra cast doubts as to the constitution of the fused/spirotricyclic BCD-ring system in the core. To clarify this issue, a flexible synthesis blueprint was devised that allowed us to obtain the originally proposed structure as well as the most plausible amended structure. The key to success was late-stage gold-catalyzed spirocyclization reactions that furnished the isomeric central segments with excellent selectivity. The lexicon of catalytic transformations used to make the required cyclization precursors comprised a titanium-mediated ester methylenation/metathesis cascade, a rare example of a gold-catalyzed allylic substitution, and chain extensions via organocatalytic asymmetric aldehyde propargylation. A wing sector to be attached to the isomeric cores was obtained by Krische allylation, followed by a superbly selective cobalt-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of the resulting di-unsaturated alcohol with the formation of a 2,5-trans-disubstituted tetrahydrofuran; the remaining terminal alkene was elaborated into an appropriate handle for fragment coupling by platinum-catalyzed asymmetric diboration/oxidation. The assembly of the different building blocks to the envisaged isomeric target compounds proved that the structure of prorocentin needs to be revised as disclosed herein.

Abstract
![]()
A dual catalyst system
based on ligand exchange of two diphosphine
ligands possessing different properties in a copper complex has been
devised to merge metal- and photocatalytic activation modes. This
strategy has been applied to the formal anti-hydroboration of activated
internal alkynes via a tandem sequence in which Cu/Xantphos catalyzes
the B2pin2-syn-hydroboration
of the alkyne whereas Cu/BINAP serves as a photocatalyst for visible
light-mediated isomerization of the resulting alkenyl boronic ester.
Photochemical studies by means of UV–vis absorption, steady-state
and time-resolved fluorescence, and transient absorption spectroscopy
have allowed characterizing the photoactive Cu/BINAP species in the
isomerization reaction and its interaction with the intermediate syn-alkenyl boronic ester through energy transfer from the
triplet excited state of the copper catalyst. In addition, mechanistic
studies shed light into catalyst speciation and the interplay between
the two catalytic cycles as critical success factors.

Abstract
Two complementary catalytic protocols for the isomerization of stereoisomeric mixtures of vinylcyclopropanes are described. A commercially available cationic rhodium complex provides access to conjugated dienoates in high yield with excellent stereocontrol. The combination of a bisphosphine ligand and a ruthenium precatalyst affords cross-conjugated dienoates via a formal 1,3-ring opening. The products are obtained with moderate to high stereoselectivity. The ability of each type of dienoate to engage in [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions has been demonstrated.

The marine natural
product scabrolide A was obtained by isomerization
of the vinylogous 1,4-diketone entity of nominal scabrolide B as the
purported pivot point of the biosynthesis of these polycyclic norcembranoids.
Despite the success of this maneuver, the latter compound itself turned
out not to be identical with the natural product of that name. The
key steps en route to the carbocyclic core of these targets were a
[2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of an allylic sulfur ylide to forge
the overcrowded C12–C13 bond, an RCM reaction to close the
congested central six-membered ring, and a hydroxy-directed epoxidation/epoxide
opening/isomerization sequence to set the “umpoled”
1,4-dicarbonyl motif and the correct angular configuration at C12.

Abstract
Alkynyl-B(aam) (aam=anthranilamidato) derivatives are readily available bench-stable compounds that undergo remarkably selective reactions with Bu3 SnH in the presence of [Cp*RuCl]4 as the catalyst. The addition follows a stereochemically unorthodox trans-selective course; in terms of regioselectivity, the Bu3 Sn- unit is delivered with high fidelity to the C-atom of the triple bond adjacent to the boracyclic head group ("alpha,trans-addition"). This outcome is deemed to reflect a hydrogen bonding interaction between the protic -NH groups of the benzo-1,3,2-diazaborininone ring system and the polarized [Ru-Cl] bond in the loaded catalyst, which locks the substrate in place in a favorable orientation relative to the incoming reagent. The resulting isomerically (almost) pure gem-dimetalated building blocks are amenable to numerous downstream functionalizations; most remarkable is the ability to subject the -B(aam) moiety to Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling without need for prior hydrolysis while keeping the adjacent Bu3 Sn- group intact. Alternatively, the tin residue can be engaged in selective tin/halogen exchange without touching the boron substituent; the fact that the two -NH entities of -B(aam) do not protonate organozinc reagents and hence do not interfere with Negishi reactions of the alkenyl halides thus formed is another virtue of this so far underutilized boracycle. Overall, the ruthenium catalyzed trans-hydrostannation of alkynyl-B(aam) derivatives opens a practical gateway to isomerically pure trisubstituted alkenes of many different substitution patterns by sequential functionalization of the 1-alkenyl-1,1-heterobimetallic adducts primarily formed.

Abstract
Aza-Cope rearrangement, as one of the fundamental reactions for C-C and C-N bond formation, has been extensively utilized for the rapid construction of synthetically challenging organic molecules. Despite significant achievements having been made in the past 80 years, catalytic enantioselective versions still remain a challenge, mainly due to the inherent nature of the reversibility of aza-Cope rearrangement. Recently, owing to the intensive development of asymmetric catalysis strategies, various chiral organocatalysts and transition-metal catalysts have been successfully applied to control the stereoselectivity of aza-Cope rearrangement, and remarkable advances have been achieved. This review highlights recent progress relating to catalytic asymmetric aza-Cope rearrangement and covers important features of these studies, including catalytic system design, mechanistic insights, stereochemistry analysis, and synthetic applications.

Abstract
Semi-synthetic A-cycle modified triterpenic derivatives with A-cycle condensed with a heterocyclic fragment (compound 1) and fragmented A-ring (compound 2) were tested for cytotoxicity against several tumor cell cultures and doxorubicin (Dox)-resistant cell lines. The equal cytotoxicity of the tested compounds to the parental tumor cell lines (HBL-100, K562) and their resistant subclones (HBL-100/Dox, K562/i-S9) was revealed. The overexpression of ABCB1 (MDR1) gene and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) was confirmed for both resistant subclones of tumor cells. Compounds 1 and 2 were shown to inhibit the ABC-transporter gene expression (MDR1, MRP, MVP, and BCRP) and the transport of well-known P-gp substrate Rhodamine 123 from resistant cells. The docking of triterpenoids 1 and 2 into the drug binding site of P-gp revealed a similarity between the conformation of the tested triterpenoids and that of classical inhibitor verapamil, thus assuming these compounds to be more likely the inhibitors than the substrates of P-gp. Any tested triterpenic derivatives, when combined at non-toxic concentrations with doxorubicin, improved cytotoxic effect of the therapeutic drug against resistant subclones of tumor cells.

Abstract
![]()
Many
polycyclic marine
alkaloids are thought to derive from partly
reduced macrocyclic alkylpyridine derivatives via a transannular Diels–Alder
reaction that forms their common etheno-bridged diaza-decaline core
(“Baldwin–Whitehead hypothesis”). Rather than
trying to emulate this biosynthesis pathway, a route to these natural
products following purely chemical logic was pursued. Specifically,
a Michael/Michael addition cascade provided rapid access to this conspicuous
tricyclic scaffold and allowed different handles to be introduced
at the bridgehead quarternary center. This flexibility opened opportunities
for the formation of the enveloping medium-sized and macrocyclic rings.
Ring closing alkyne metathesis (RCAM) proved most reliable and became
a recurrent theme en route to keramaphidin B, ingenamine, xestocyclamine
A, and nominal njaoamine I (the structure of which had to be corrected
in the aftermath of the synthesis). Best results were obtained with
molybdenum alkylidyne catalysts endowed with (tripodal) silanolate
ligands, which proved fully operative in the presence of tertiary
amines, quinoline, and other Lewis basic sites. RCAM was successfully
interlinked with macrolactamization, an intricate hydroboration/protonation/alkyl-Suzuki
coupling sequence, or ring closing olefin metathesis (RCM) for the
closure of the second lateral ring; the use of RCM for the formation
of an 11-membered cycle is particularly noteworthy. Equally rare are
RCM reactions that leave a pre-existing triple bond untouched, as
the standard ruthenium catalysts are usually indiscriminative vis-à-vis
the different π-bonds. Of arguably highest significance, however,
is the use of two consecutive or even concurrent RCAM reactions en
route to nominal njaoamine I as the arguably most complex of the chosen
targets.

Abstract

Macrocyclic
natural products are plentiful in
the bacteria, archaea,
and eukaryote domains of life. For the significant advantages that
they provide to the producing organisms, evolution has learned how
to implement various types of macrocyclization reactions into the
different biosynthetic pathways and how to effect them with remarkable
ease. Mankind greatly benefits from nature’s pool, not least
because naturally occurring macrocycles or derivatives thereof serve
as important drugs for the treatment of many serious ailments. In stark contrast, macrocyclization reactions are usually perceived
as difficult to accomplish by purely chemical means. While it is true
that ring closure necessarily entails an entropic loss and may result
in the buildup of (considerable) ring strain that must be compensated
for in one way or the other, it is also fair to note tremendous methodological
advances during the last decades that greatly alleviated this traditional
“macrocycle challenge”. It is therefore increasingly
possible to explore the advantages provided by large as well as medium-size
ring systems in a more systematic manner. This venture also holds
the promise of increasing the “chemical space” amenable
to drug development to a considerable extent. In consideration
of this and other important long-term perspectives,
it is appropriate to revisit the current state of the art. To this
end, a number of vignettes are presented, each of which summarizes
a total synthesis project targeting macrocyclic natural products of
greatly different chemotypes using a variety of transformations to
reach these goals. Although we were occasionally facing “dead
ends”, which are also delineated for the sake of a complete
picture, these case studies illustrate the notion that the formation
of a certain macrocyclic perimeter is (usually) no longer seriously
limiting. In addition to substantial progress in the “classical”
repertoire (macrolactonization and macrolactamization
(pateamine A, spirastrellolide, and belizentrin)), various metal-catalyzed
reactions have arguably led to the greatest leaps forward. Among them,
palladium-catalyzed C–C bond formation (roseophilin and nominal
xestocyclamine A) and, in particular, alkene and alkyne metathesis
stand out (iejimalide, spirastrellolide, enigmazole, ingenamine, and
sinulariadiolide). In some cases, different methods were pursued in
parallel, thus allowing for a critical assessment and comparison. To the extent that the macrocyclic challenge is vanishing, the
opportunity arises to focus attention on the postmacrocyclization
phase. One may stipulate that a well-designed cyclization precursor
does not only ensure efficient ring closure but also fosters and streamlines
the steps that come after the event. One way to do so is dual (multiple)
use in that the functional groups serving the actual cyclization reaction
also find productive applications downstream from it rather than being
subject to simple defunctionalization. In this context,
better insight into the conformational peculiarities of large rings
and the growing confidence in their accessibility in a stereochemically
well defined format rejuvenate the implementation of transannular
reactions or reaction cascades that can lead to rapid and substantial
increases in molecular complexity. The examples summarized herein
showcase such possibilities, with special emphasis on tranannular
gold catalysis and the emerging ruthenium-catalyzed trans-hydrometalation chemistry for the selective functionalization of
alkynes.

A nonthermodynamic array of four skipped methylene substituents on the hydrophobic tail
renders limaol, a C40-polyketide of marine origin, unique in structural terms. This
conspicuous segment was assembled by a two-directional approach and finally coupled to
the polyether domain by an allyl/alkenyl Stille reaction under neutral conditions. The
core region itself was prepared via a 3,3′-dibromo-BINOL-catalyzed asymmetric
propargylation, a gold-catalyzed spirocyclization, and introduction of the southern
sector via substrate-controlled allylation as the key steps.

Abstract
Total synthesis allowed the constitution of the cytotoxic marine macrolides of the formosalide family to be confirmed and their previously unknown stereostructure to be assigned with confidence. The underlying blueprint was inherently modular to ensure that each conceivable isomer could be reached. This flexibility derived from the use of strictly catalyst controlled transformations to set the stereocenters, except for the anomeric position, which is under thermodynamic control; as an extra safety measure, all stereogenic centers were set prior to ring closure to preclude any interference of the conformation adopted by the macrolactone rings of the different diastereomers. Late-stage macrocyclization by ring-closing alkyne metathesis was followed by a platinum-catalyzed transannular 6-exo-dig hydroalkoxylation/ketalization to craft the polycyclic frame. The side chain featuring a very labile unsaturation pattern was finally attached to the core by Stille coupling.

Abstract
The product of a revealed transformation-NHC-ethynyl coupling-was observed as a catalyst transformation pathway in the Sonogashira cross-coupling, catalyzed by Pd/NHC complexes. The 2-ethynylated azolium salt was isolated in individual form and fully characterized, including X-ray analysis. A number of possible intermediates of this transformation with common formulae (NHC)n Pd(C2 Ph) (n=1,2) were observed and subjected to collision-induced dissociation (CID) and infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) experiments to elucidate their structure. Measured bond dissociation energies (BDEs) and IRMPD spectra were in an excellent agreement with quantum calculations for coupling product π-complexes with Pd0 . Molecular dynamics simulations confirmed the observed multiple CID fragmentation pathways. An unconventional methodology to study catalyst evolution suggests the reported transformation to be considered in the development of new catalytic systems for alkyne functionalization reactions.

In this study, we developed an efficient Ir-catalyzed cascade umpolung allylation/2-aza-Cope rearrangement of tertiary α-trifluoromethyl α-amino acid derivatives for the preparation of a variety of quaternary α-trifluoromethyl α-amino acids in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. The umpolung reactivity empowered by the activation of the key isatin-ketoimine moiety obviates the intractable enantioselectivity control in Pd-catalyzed asymmetric linear α-allylation. In combination with quasi parallel kinetic resolution or kinetic resolution, the generality of this method is further demonstrated by the first preparation of enantioenriched quaternary trifluoromethyl β-, γ-, δ- and ε-amino acid derivatives.

Abstract
Access to enantiopure complex molecular structures is crucial for the development of new drugs as well as agents used in crop-protection. In this regard, numerous asymmetric methods have been established. Copper-catalyzed 1,4-additions of organometallic reagents are robust C-C bond formation strategies applicable in a wide range of circumstances. This review analyses the syntheses of natural products and pharmaceutical agents, which rely on the application of asymmetric Cu-catalyzed conjugate additions of various organometallic reagents. A wide range of available organometallics, e.g. dialkylzinc, trialkylaluminum, Grignard, and organozirconium, can now be used in conjugate additions to address various synthetic challenges present in targeted natural compounds. Furthermore, efficient catalysts allow high levels of stereofidelity over a diverse array of starting Michael acceptors.

Abstract
In the presence of simple iron salts, 2‐pyridone derivatives react with Grignard reagents under mild conditions to give the corresponding 1,6‐addition products; if the reaction medium is supplemented with an aprotic dipolar cosolvent after the actual addition step, the intermediates primarily formed succumb to ring opening, giving rise to non‐thermodynamic Z,E‐configured dienoic acid amide derivatives which are difficult to make otherwise. Control experiments as well as the isolation and crystallographic characterization of a (tricarbonyl)iron pyridone complex suggest that the active iron catalyst generated in situ exhibits high affinity to the polarized diene system embedded into the heterocyclic ring system of the substrates, which likely serves as the actual recognition element.

Abstract
A conceptually novel reaction cascade is presented, which allows readily available enynes to be converted into functionalized 1,3-dienes comprising a stereodefined tetrasubstituted alkene unit; such compounds are difficult to make by conventional means. The overall transformation is thought to commence with formation of a metallacyclic intermediate that evolves via cleavage of an unstrained C-X bond in its backbone. This non-canonical cycloisomerization process is followed by a cross-coupling step, such that reductive C-C bond formation regenerates the necessary low-valent metal fragment and hence closes an intricate catalytic cycle. The cascade entails the formation of two new C-C bonds at the expense of the constitutional C-X entity of the substrate: importantly, the extruded group X must not be a heteroelement (X=O, NR), since activated β-C-C bonds can also be broken. This concern was reduced to practice in two largely complementary formats: one procedure relies on the use of alkyl-Grignard reagents in combination with catalytic amounts of Fe(acac)3, whereas the second method amalgamates cycloisomerization with Suzuki coupling by recourse to arylboronic acids and phosphine-ligated palladium catalysts.

Abstract
An intramolecular umpolung allylation of imines is reported. This reaction occurs via the intermediacy of 2-azaallyl anions. It could proceed either under transition-metal-catalyzed conditions or under transition-metal-free conditions. Importantly, this approach afforded trans-3-vinyl-4-aminochromanes with high diastereoselectivity, while conventional, nonumpolung methods often display high cis-selectivity.
