Abstract
Enantioselective total syntheses of (-)-grayanotoxin III, (+)-principinol E, and (-)-rhodomollein XX were accomplished based on a convergent strategy. The left- and right-wing fragments were assembled via the diastereoselective Mukaiyama aldol reaction catalyzed by a chiral hydrogen bond donor. The unique 7-endo-trig cyclization based on a bridgehead carbocation forged the 5/7/6/5 tetracyclic skeleton that underwent redox manipulations and 1,2-migration to access different grayanane diterpenoids.

The Diversity of Cyanobacterial Toxins on Structural Characterization, Distribution and Identification: A Systematic Review. Toxins (Basel) 2019; 11:toxins11090530. [PMID: 31547379 PMCID: PMC6784007 DOI: 10.3390/toxins11090530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 73] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2019] [Revised: 09/06/2019] [Accepted: 09/09/2019] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The widespread distribution of cyanobacteria in the aquatic environment is increasing the risk of water pollution caused by cyanotoxins, which poses a serious threat to human health. However, the structural characterization, distribution and identification techniques of cyanotoxins have not been comprehensively reviewed in previous studies. This paper aims to elaborate the existing information systematically on the diversity of cyanotoxins to identify valuable research avenues. According to the chemical structure, cyanotoxins are mainly classified into cyclic peptides, alkaloids, lipopeptides, nonprotein amino acids and lipoglycans. In terms of global distribution, the amount of cyanotoxins are unbalanced in different areas. The diversity of cyanotoxins is more obviously found in many developed countries than that in undeveloped countries. Moreover, the threat of cyanotoxins has promoted the development of identification and detection technology. Many emerging methods have been developed to detect cyanotoxins in the environment. This communication provides a comprehensive review of the diversity of cyanotoxins, and the detection and identification technology was discussed. This detailed information will be a valuable resource for identifying the various types of cyanotoxins which threaten the environment of different areas. The ability to accurately identify specific cyanotoxins is an obvious and essential aspect of cyanobacterial research.

INOUE M. Chemical construction and structural permutation of neurotoxic natural product, antillatoxin: importance of the three-dimensional structure of the bulky side chain. PROCEEDINGS OF THE JAPAN ACADEMY. SERIES B, PHYSICAL AND BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES 2014; 90:56-66. [PMID: 24522155 PMCID: PMC3948940 DOI: 10.2183/pjab.90.56] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2013] [Accepted: 11/29/2013] [Indexed: 06/03/2023]
Abstract
Antillatoxin 1 is a unique natural product that displays potent neurotoxic and neuritogenic activities through activation of voltage-gated sodium channels. The peptidic macrocycle of 1 was attached to a side chain with an exceptionally high degree of methylation. In this review, we discuss the total synthesis and biological evaluation of 1 and its analogues. First we describe an efficient synthetic route to 1. This strategy enabled the unified preparation of nine side chain analogues. Structure-activity relationship studies of these analogues revealed that subtle side chain modification leads to dramatic changes in activity, and detailed structural analyses indicated the importance of the overall size and three dimensional shape of the side chain. Based on these data, we designed and synthesized a photoresponsive analogue, proving that the activity of 1 was modulated via a photochemical reaction. The knowledge accumulated through these studies will be useful for the rational design of new tailor-made molecules to control the function and behavior of ion channels.
