In vitro expansion of DNA triplet repeats with bulge binders and different DNA polymerases

FEBS JOURNAL, Issue 18 2008
Di Ouyang
The expansion of DNA repeat sequences is associated with many genetic diseases in humans. Simple bulge DNA structures have been implicated as intermediates in DNA slippage within the DNA repeat regions. To probe the possible role of bulged structures in DNA slippage, we designed and synthesized a pair of simple chiral spirocyclic compounds [Xi Z, Ouyang D & Mu HT (2006) Bioorg Med Chem Lett16, 1180,1184], DDI-1A and DDI-1B, which mimic the molecular architecture of the enediyne antitumor antibiotic neocarzinostatin chromophore. Both compounds strongly stimulated slippage in various DNA repeats in vitro. Enhanced slippage synthesis was found to be synchronous for primer and template. CD spectra and UV thermal stability studies supported the idea that DDI-1A and DDI-1B exhibited selective binding to the DNA bulge and induced a significant conformational change in bulge DNA. The proposed mechanism for the observed in vitro expansion of long DNA is discussed. [source]


Thiophenol-Mediated 1,5-Hydrogen Atom Abstraction: Easy Access to Mono- and Bicyclic Compounds

ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 11-13 2005
Florent Beaufils
Abstract A thiophenol-mediated method for cyclization of alkynes is described. The reaction cascade involves the intermolecular addition of a phenylthiyl radical to a terminal triple bond generating an alkenyl radical, followed by a 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer and a 5- exo- trig radical cyclization. This very efficient tin-free procedure allows one to prepare highly functionalized cyclopentane derivatives as well as fused bicyclic and spirocyclic compounds from easily available precursors. During this cyclization process, a phenylthio moiety is incorporated into the final cyclized products. This functionalization is particularly attractive for further transformation of the products.

Synthesis of Polycyclic Compounds by a Cascade Cycloisomerisation/Diels,Alder Reaction

CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 24 2010
José Barluenga Prof.
Running rings around gold: A new cascade reaction catalysed by AuCl3 that is based upon an initial cycloisomerisation reaction of enynol or enynamine derivatives, which form 1,3-butadiene derivatives, followed by a Diels,Alder cycloaddition reaction to give fused or spirocyclic compounds is reported (see scheme).

Synthesis, Structure and Emission Properties of Spirocyclic Benzofuranones and Dihydroindolones: A Domino Insertion,Coupling,Isomerization, Diels,Alder Approach to Rigid Fluorophores

CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 2 2008

Abstract An alkynoyl ortho -iodo phenolester or alkynoyl ortho -iodo anilides and propargyl allyl ethers react under Sonogashira coupling conditions in the sense of an insertion,coupling,isomerization,Diels,Alder hetero domino reaction to furnish (tetrahydroisobenzofuran)-spirobenzofuranones and -spirodihydroindolones in good yields. Many representatives can be crystallized and single crystal structure analyses display steric and electronic substituent effects on the torsional angles of the terminal (hetero)aryl groups and the central cis,trans -butadiene fragment. DFT computations reveal that in the final pericyclic step the Diels,Alder termination is by far thermodynamically and kinetically favored over a possible Claisen rearrangement. Compounds of this new class of spirocyclic compounds possess large Stokes shifts and fluoresce intensively with blue over green to orange colors. As a consequence of the spirocyclic rigidity fluorescence lifetimes and quantum yields are rather high in some cases. Alkinoyl ortho -iodphenolester oder Alkinoyl ortho -iodanilide und Propargylallylether reagieren unter den Bedingungen der Sonogashira-Kupplung im Sinne einer Insertions,Kupplungs,Diels,Alder-Hetero-Domino-Reaktion zu (Tetrahydroisobenzofuran)-spirobenzofuranonen bzw. -spirodihydroindolonen in guten Ausbeuten, von denen viele kristallisiert werden konnten. Die Einkristallstrukturanalysen offenbaren sterische und elektronische Substituenteneffekte auf die Torsionswinkel der terminalen (Hetero)arylgruppen und des zentralen cis,trans -Butadienfragments. DFT-Rechnungen zeigen, dass im letzten pericyclischen Schritt die Diels,Alder-Reaktion gegenüber einer möglichen Claisen-Umlagerung bei weitem thermodynamisch und kinetisch begünstigt ist. Viele Verbindungen dieser neuen Spirocyclenklasse besitzen große Stokes-Verschiebungen und fluoreszieren intensive mit blauer, grüner oder oranger Farbe. Als Folge der spirocyclischen Rigidität sind in einigen Fällen die Fluoreszenzlebensdauern und Quantenausbeuten relative hoch. [source]


Diversity-Oriented Approach to Biologically Relevant Molecular Frameworks Starting with ,-Naphthol and Using the Claisen Rearrangement and Olefin Metathesis as Key Steps

CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 31 2006
Sambasivarao Kotha Prof. Dr.
Abstract A diversity-oriented approach for the synthesis of various structurally different molecular frameworks from readily accessible and common precursors is described. A Claisen rearrangement followed by ring-closing metathesis or ethylene-promoted ring-closing enyne metathesis has been utilized as the key synthetic transformation to generate naphthoxepine derivatives. The ring-closing metathesis approach has also been used to generate spirocyclic compounds and the pleiadene framework. [source]
