TL;DR: The development of a novel regioselective iodination process for silyl-protected thiophenes faciliates the successful application of the solution-phase protocol to the solid phase and proves the suitability of the following iterative halogenation and Suzuki cross-coupling sequence.
Abstract: The solid-phase synthesis of regioregular head-to-tail-coupled oligo(3-arylthiophene)s has been achieved in high yield and purity by using a traceless silyl ether linkage. In the first step, the solution-phase synthesis of this class of conjugated oligomers was investigated. Benzyl alcohol was chosen to serve as a mimic for the anchoring group of the hydroxymethyl-substituted polystyrene matrix. The development of a novel regioselective iodination process for silyl-protected thiophenes faciliates the successful application of the solution-phase protocol to the solid phase. Satisfactory loading was obtained by reaction of chlorosilyl-functionalized 3-arylthiophene with hydroxymethyl polystyrene in the presence of imidazole. The suitability of the following iterative halogenation and Suzuki cross-coupling sequence is illustrated by the preparation of a quater(3-arylthiophene), the first regioregular head-to-tail-coupled oligothiophene that is synthesized on solid support. Removal of the conjugated oligomers...
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied DSC to the preparation of Sandostatin, a growth hormone inhibitor, using a hydroxyl function, which is suitable for the incorporation of molecules via a hydrastic function.
TL;DR: An efficient and rapid microwave-assisted solution-phase method for the synthesis of 2-amino-4-arylpyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid derivatives has been developed in this article.
Abstract: An efficient and rapid microwave-assisted solution-phase method for the synthesis of 2-amino-4-arylpyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid derivatives has been developed. The five-step linear protocol involves an initial Biginelli multicomponent reaction leading to dihydropyrimidine-2-thiones which are subsequently S-alkylated with methyl iodide. The resulting 2-methylthiodihydropyrimidines are sequentially oxidized first with manganese dioxide and then with Oxone to provide 2-methylsulfonyl-pyrimidines which serve as excellent precursors for the generation of a variety of 2-substituted pyrimidines via displacement of the reactive sulfonyl group with nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, and carbon nucleophiles. A modified protocol using a solid-phase method has also been developed.
TL;DR: The observed structure-activity relationships of rhamnolipids indicate a specific, recognition-based mode of action, with small structural variations in the rhamNolipid resulting in strong effects on the immunostimulatory activities of the Rhamnlipids at low micromolar concentrations.
Abstract: The first synthesis of a glycolipid library by hydrophobically assisted switching phase (HASP) synthesis is described. HASP synthesis enables flexible switching between solution-phase steps and solid-supported reactions conducted with molecules attached to a hydrophobic silica support. A library of glycolipids derived from the lead compound 1-a strongly immunostimulatory rhamnolipid--with variations in the carbohydrate part, the lipid components, and the stereochemistry of the 3-hydroxy fatty acids was designed and synthesized. The enantioselective synthesis of the 3-hydroxy fatty acid building blocks was achieved by employing asymmetric hydrogenation of 3-oxo fatty acids. Glycolipids were prepared by this approach without any intermediary isolation steps, mostly in excellent yields. Final deprotection to the carboxylic acids was accomplished by enzymatic ester cleavage. All prepared rhamnolipids were tested for their immunostimulatory properties against human monocyte cells by assaying the secretion of the cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) into the medium. The observed structure-activity relationships of rhamnolipids indicate a specific, recognition-based mode of action, with small structural variations in the rhamnolipids resulting in strong effects on the immunostimulatory activities of the rhamnolipids at low micromolar concentrations.
