Chemistry 2023; 29:e202303121. [PMID: 37830907 PMCID: PMC10946863 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202303121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023]
Abstract
The fully functionalized A-F fragment of the Pacific ciguatoxin CTX3C has been synthesized from a derivative of D-glucal, which serves as the B-ring. Rings A and C were introduced to either side of ring B by ring-closing diene and enyne metathesis (RCM). The seven-membered D-ring and eight-membered E-ring were assembled by iterative use of a six-step reaction sequence in which RCM was used for ring construction and Tsuji-Trost allylation was employed for subsequent stereoselective functionalization. The nine-membered F-ring was formed by use of an RCM reaction and bears the functionality required for attachment of the I-M fragment and subsequent closure of rings G and H.

Abstract
AbstractA metal-free direct C–H selenation of aniline derivatives via an iodine-catalyzed C–Se bond formation using diselenides as a selenium source at ambient temperature is described. A variety of aniline derivatives underwent regioselective C–H selenation with different diselenides to afford the corresponding aryl selenoethers in good to excellent yields.

Abstract
A photocatalytic decarboxylative radical conjugate addition-elimination-oxa-Michael reaction of hydroxyalkylated carboxylic acids with cyclopentenones is developed to construct diverse cyclopentanonyl-fused functionalized 5-7 membered cyclic ethers. The stereoselective synthetic strategy is amenable to substructural variation, establishing a direct total synthetic route to two diastereomers of C3-amino cyclopentyltetrahydrofuranyl-derived potent HIV-1 protease inhibitors with low nanomolar IC50 values.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrases (CAs, E.C. 4.2.1.1) are metalloenzymes expressed on a variety of cell types. Their overexpression leads to serious pathologies, including cancer. The discovery of a series of selenolesters with high structural diversity as novel CA inhibitors is reported here. These compounds show remarkable in vitro inhibition against a panel of human CA isoforms such as hCA I, II, IX and XII. We observed that they undergo a CA mediated hydrolysis, releasing different active selenol fragments, which act as CA inhibitors. Notably, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of an enzyme with selenolesterase activity. In addition, X-ray crystallographic data support the proposed mechanism, proving selenolesters as novel pro-drug inhibitors with potential pharmacological applications.

Abstract
The GHIJKL fragment of gymnocin-B was synthesized using the oxiranyl anion strategy. The first highlight of the synthesis is the bromoketone cyclization reaction on the oxepane ring to construct the fused bisoxepane GH ring. The second key step is the introduction of the trans-4-hydroxy-3-methyloxepane J ring via addition of trimethylaluminum to a conjugated oxonium moiety, followed by diastereoselective epoxidation and regioselective reduction.

Abstract
Fabrication of self-assembled nanostructures is one of the important aspects in nanoscience and nanotechnology. The study of self-assembled soft materials remains an area of interest due to their potential applications in biomedicine. The versatile properties of soft materials can be tuned using a bottom up approach of small molecules. Peptide based self-assembly has significant impact in biology because of its unique features such as biocompatibility, straight peptide chain and the presence of different side chain functionality. These unique features explore peptides in various self-assembly process. In this review, we briefly introduce chemical reaction-mediated peptide self-assembly. Herein, we have emphasised enzymes, native chemical ligation and photochemical reactions in the exploration of peptide self-assembly.

Abstract
Ciguatoxins, the principal causative agents of ciguatera seafood poisoning, are extremely large polycyclic ethers. We report herein a reliable route for constructing the left wing of CTX1B, which possesses the acid/base/oxidant-sensitive bisallylic ether moiety, by a 6-exo radical cyclization/ring-closing metathesis strategy. This new route enabled us to achieve the second-generation total synthesis of CTX1B and the first synthesis of 54-deoxyCTX1B.

Abstract
A series of polychalcogenotrimethylsilane complexes Ar(CH2ESiMe3)n, (Ar = aryl; E = S, Se; n = 2, 3, and 4) can be prepared from the corresponding polyorganobromide and M[ESiMe3] (M = Na, Li). These represent the first examples of the incorporation of such a large number of reactive -ESiMe3 moieties onto an organic molecular framework. They are shown to be convenient reagents for the preparation of the polyferrocenylseleno- and thioesters from ferrocenoyl chloride. The synthesis, structures, and spectroscopic properties of the new silyl chalcogen complexes 1,4-(Me3SiECH2)2(C6Me4) (E = S, 1; E = Se, 2), 1,3,5-(Me3SiECH2)3(C6Me3) (E = S, 3; E = Se, 4) and 1,2,4,5-(Me3SiECH2)4(C6H2) (E = S, 5; E = Se, 6) and the polyferrocenyl chalcogenoesters [1,4-{FcC(O)ECH2}2(C6Me4)] (E = S, 7; E = Se, 8), [1,3,5-{FcC(O)ECH2}3(C6Me3)] (E = S, 9; E = Se, 10) and [1,2,4,5-{FcC(O)ECH2}4(C6H2)] (E = S, 11 illustrated; E = Se, 12) are reported. The new polysilylated reagents and polyferrocenyl chalcogenoesters have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy ((1)H, (13)C, (77)Se), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and, for complexes 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, and 11, single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The cyclic voltammograms of complexes 7-11 are presented.

Abstract
Marine polycyclic ether natural products continue to fascinate chemists and biologists due to their exceptionally large and complex molecular architectures and potent and diverse biological activities. Tremendous progress has been made over the past decade toward the total synthesis of marine polycyclic ether natural products. In this area, a convergent strategy for assembling small fragments into an entire molecule always plays a key role in successful total synthesis. This review describes our efforts to develop convergent strategies for the synthesis of polycyclic ethers and their application to the total synthesis of gambierol, gymnocin-A, and brevenal, and to the partial synthesis of the central part of ciguatoxins and the nonacyclic polyether skeleton of gambieric acids.
