[PMID: 36054994 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmc.2022.116968] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Oxetanocin A (Oxt-A), a novel oxetanosyl N-glycoside nucleoside, was isolated from Bacillus megaterium in 1986. It carries an oxetane ring on the sugar moiety of the nucleoside scaffold, which contributes to differences in its structure from those of common tetrahydrofuranyl-based nucleosides. In view of the unique 3D-spatial framework, the complete synthesis of Oxt-A has been achieved by multiple research groups. The pharmacological properties of this natural product have also been broadly investigated by pharmacists and chemists since its discovery. Notably, the potential antiviral effect of Oxt-A has captured attention of researchers in the field of antiviral agent development. Furthermore, epidemic outbreaks caused by viruses have been stimulating the preparation and modification of various Oxt-A analogs over the past few decades. However, none of the studies have overviewed the antiviral efficacies of this naturally occurring scaffold yet. Thus, the present review summarizes the synthesis, structural modification, and antiviral activities of Oxt-A and its derivatives. We believe that these comprehensive descriptions will provide a novel perspective for the discovery of antivirus drugs with well-improved performance and pave newer paths for combating sudden public health issues triggered by viruses in the future.

Abstract
AbstractThe unprecedented DAST-mediated (DAST = diethylaminosulfur trifluoride) deoxygenative fluorination of benzoyl-, TBDPS-, and Bn-protected 1-(β-d-4-thioarabinofuranosyl)uracil at the sugar portion was examined. Three kinds of nucleoside (Ns) products were formed: target thiolane Ns, ring-contracted thietane Ns, and anhydro Ns products. The reaction pathway was determined by the electronic effect of the protecting groups at the sugar and base moieties. The benzoylated uracil starting material gave the 2,2′-anhydronucleoside (anhydro Ns) as a major product, whereas the silylated and benzylated starting materials furnished the corresponding fluorinated products, in which the ring-contracted thietanes predominantly formed. The desired thiolane Ns could be obtained as major product by the addition of a pyridine derivative as an additive. Upon reacting N
3-benzoylated 1-(β-d-4-thioarabinofuranosyl)uracil with DAST in the presence of 2,4,6-collidine, the target 2′-deoxy-2′-β-fluoro-4′-thiouracil nucleoside could be obtained in 72% isolated yield along with the corresponding thietane Ns (7%) and anhydro Ns (3%) (thiolane Ns/thietane Ns/anhydro Ns = 10.3:1.00:0.43), with recovery of the starting material (12%). In this study, the first stereoselective synthesis of the β-anomer of 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-4-thio-β-d-arabino-pentofuranosyl)cytosine (4′-thioFAC) has been developed.

Efficient biosynthesis of nucleoside cytokinin angustmycin A containing an unusual sugar system. Nat Commun 2021; 12:6633. [PMID: 34789759 PMCID: PMC8599513 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-26928-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Angustmycin A has anti-mycobacterial and cytokinin activities, and contains an intriguing structure in which an unusual sugar with C5′-C6′ dehydration is linked to adenine via an N-glycosidic bond. However, the logic underlying the biosynthesis of this molecule has long remained obscure. Here, we address angustmycin A biosynthesis by the full deciphering of its pathway. We demonstrate that AgmD, C, A, E, and B function as d-allulose 6-phosphate 3-epimerase, d-allulose 6-phosphate pyrophosphokinase, adenine phosphoallulosyltransferase, phosphoribohydrolase, and phosphatase, respectively, and that these collaboratively catalyze the relay reactions to biosynthesize angustmycin C. Additionally, we provide evidence that AgmF is a noncanonical dehydratase for the final step to angustmycin A via a self-sufficient strategy for cofactor recycling. Finally, we have reconstituted the entire six-enzyme pathway in vitro and in E. coli leading to angustmycin A production. These results expand the enzymatic repertoire regarding natural product biosynthesis, and also open the way for rational and rapid discovery of other angustmycin related antibiotics. Angustmycin A is a nucleoside antibiotic having anti-mycobacterial and cytokinin activities. Here, the authors report the whole pathway leading to angustmycin A biosynthesis in Streptomyces and achieve the heterologous production of angustmycin A in E. coli.

Abstract
Oxetanes are important motifs for drug discovery and are valuable templates in organic synthesis. Much of their use as synthetic intermediates exploits their inherent strain, often resulting in chain extensions at the expense of the heterocycle. Modifications on the carbon alpha to the oxygen of oxetanes, such as the C═O of β-lactones, extend the modes of reactivity. Nevertheless, the outcomes are still largely predictable. On the other hand, other alpha modifications, such as a ═CH2, a spiro-oxiranyl moiety, or a spiro-cyclopropyl group, increase strain and open pathways not available to simple oxetanes or β-lactones. Methods in generating 2-methyleneoxetanes, 1,5-dioxaspiro[3.2]hexanes, and 4-oxaspiro[2.3]hexanes have been developed by us and others. To date, reactions of these systems have sometimes been predictable, but often the outcomes have been unexpected. This has provided fertile ground for thinking about what controls reactivity and what other reaction pathways might be accessible to these strain-heightened oxetanes.This Account summarizes the published literature on the most straightforward approaches to 2-methyleneoxetanes, dioxaspirohexanes, and oxaspirohexanes and on their reactivity. In contrast to simple oxetanes, reactions of 2-methyleneoxetanes with nucleophiles at C4 release an enolate rather than an alkoxide. Also, 2-methyleneoxetanes can be converted to homopropargyl alcohols or undergo a silicon accelerated isomerization/electrocyclic ring opening, processes accessible only because of the exocyclic double bond. In addition, oxetane oxocarbenium ions, derived from protonation of the enol ether, can react with nucleophiles to provide 2,2-disubstituted oxetanes. Oxaspirohexanes are readily prepared by Simmons-Smith cyclopropanation of 2-methyleneoxetanes. These unusual systems undergo a variety of substituent dependent rearrangements in the presence of the Lewis acid BF3·Et2O. In addition, upon treatment with Zeise's dimer, oxaspirohexanes are transformed to synthetically useful 3-methylenetetrahydrofurans. Dioxaspirohexanes are easily accessed by dimethyldioxirane oxidation of 2-methyleneoxetanes. Predictably, dioxaspirohexanes react with many nucleophiles to give α-functionalized-β'-hydroxy ketones. Unexpectedly, 2,2-disubstituted oxetanes can also be selectively produced. This latter pathway has led to further unusual transformations, illuminating computational studies, and novel routes to biologically relevant molecules.

Abstract
An alternative method for the preparation of 2'-bromo- (5b) and 2'-iodo- (5c) 1',2'-unsaturated uracil nucleosides has been developed. The protocol was on the basis of the syn-elimination of pivalic acid from 2'-bromo-(7a,b) and 2'-iodo-(9a,b) 1'-pivaloyloxy-2'-deoxyuridine derivatives, which were derived from the halo-pivaloyloxylation of 3',5'-bis-O-TBDMS-1',2'-unsaturated uridine 1. Compounds 5b and 5c were shown to serve as versatile synthons for the respective 2'-C-branched 1',2'-unsaturated uracil nucleosides, through palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling or halogen-lithium exchange reactions.

Abstract
The isoxazolidine ring represents one of the privileged structures in medicinal chemistry, and there have been an increasing number of studies on isoxazolidine and isoxazolidine-containing compounds. Optimization of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (1,3-DC), original methods including electrophilic or palladium-mediated cyclization of unsaturated hydroxylamine, has been developed to obtain isoxazolidines. Novel reactions involving the isoxazolidine ring have been highlighted to accomplish total synthesis or to obtain bioactive compounds, one of the most significant examples being probably the thermic ring contraction applied to the total synthesis of (±)-Gelsemoxonine. The unique isoxazolidine scaffold also exhibits an impressive potential as a mimic of nucleosides, carbohydrates, PNA, amino acids, and steroid analogs. This review aims to be a comprehensive and general summary of the different isoxazolidine syntheses, their use as starting building blocks for the preparation of natural compounds, and their main biological activities.
