Selected AbstractsSynthesis of Monosaccharide-Derived Spirocyclic Cyclopropylamines and Their Evaluation as Glycosidase InhibitorsHELVETICA CHIMICA ACTA, Issue 9 2003Christian Blüchel The glucose-, mannose-, and galactose-derived spirocyclic cyclopropylammonium chlorides 1a,1d, 2a,2d and 3a,3d were prepared as potential glycosidase inhibitors. Cyclopropanation of the diazirine 5 with ethyl acrylate led in 71% yield to a 4,:,5,:,1,:,20 mixture of the ethyl cyclopropanecarboxylates 7a,7d, while the Cu-catalysed cycloaddition of ethyl diazoacetate to the exo -glycal 6 afforded 7a,7d (6,:,2,:,5,:,3) in 93,98% yield (Scheme,1). Saponification, Curtius degradation, and subsequent addition of BnOH or t- BuOH led in 60,80% overall yield to the Z- or Boc-carbamates 11a,11d and 12a,12d, respectively. Hydrogenolysis of 11a,11d afforded 1a,1d, while 12a,12d was debenzylated to 13a,13d prior to acidic cleavage of the N -Boc group. The manno - and galacto -isomers 2a,2d and 3a,3d, respectively, were similarly obtained in comparable yields (Schemes,2 and 4). Also prepared were the differentially protected manno- configured esters 24a,24d; they are intermediates for the synthesis of analogous N -acetylglucosamine-derived cyclopropanes (Scheme,3). The cyclopropylammonium chlorides 1a,1d, 2a,2d and 3a,3d are very weak inhibitors of several glycosidases (Tables,1 and 2). Traces of Pd compounds, however, generated upon catalytic debenzylation, proved to be strong inhibitors. PdCl is, indeed, a reversible, micromolar inhibitor for the ,- glucosidases from C. saccharolyticum and sweet almonds (non-competitive), the , -galactosidases from bovine liver and from E. coli (both non-competitive), the , -galactosidase from Aspergillus niger (competitive), and an irreversible inhibitor of the , -glucosidase from yeast and the , -galactosidase from coffee beans. The cyclopropylamines derived from 1a,1d or 3a,3d significantly enhance the inhibition of the ,- glucosidase from C. saccharolyticum by PdCl, lowering the Ki value from 40,,M (PdCl) to 0.5,,M for a 1,:,1 mixture of PdCl and 1d. A similar effect is shown by cyclopropylamine, but not by several other amines. [source] Comparison of the Relative Reactivities of the Triisopropylsilyl Group With Two Fluorous AnalogsADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 7-8 2009Amador Garcia Sancho Abstract The relative stabilities of two fluorous analogs, diisopropyl(3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10- heptadecafluorodecyl)silyl and diisopropyl- (4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,11-heptadecafluoroundecyl)silyl [C8F17(CH2)nSi(i- Pr)2, where n=2 or 3], of the standard triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) group are compared in the setting of alcohol protection. The fluorous silyl groups can be installed under standard conditions in comparable yields to the TIPS group, but the derived fluorous silyl ethers are more labile than TIPS ethers towards cleavage by both acids and fluoride. [source] Intensified Process for the Purification of an Enzyme from Inclusion Bodies Using Integrated Expanded Bed Adsorption and RefoldingBIOTECHNOLOGY PROGRESS, Issue 4 2006Matthew H. Hutchinson This work describes the integration of expanded bed adsorption (EBA) and adsorptive protein refolding operations in an intensified process used to recover purified and biologically active proteins from inclusion bodies expressed in E. coli. ,5 -3-Ketosteroid isomerase with a C-terminal hexahistidine tag was expressed as inclusion bodies in the cytoplasm of E. coli. Chemical extraction was used to disrupt the host cells and simultaneously solubilize the inclusion bodies, after which EBA utilizing immobilized metal affinity interactions was used to purify the polyhistidine-tagged protein. Adsorptive refolding was then initiated in the column by changing the denaturant concentration in the feed stream from 8 to 0 M urea. Three strategies were tested for performing the refolding step in the EBA column: (i) the denaturant was removed using a step change in feed-buffer composition, (ii) the denaturant was gradually removed using a gradient change in feed-buffer composition, and (iii) the liquid flow direction through the column was reversed and adsorptive refolding performed in the packed bed. Buoyancy-induced mixing disrupted the operation of the expanded bed when adsorptive refolding was performed using either a step change or a rapid gradient change in feed-buffer composition. A shallow gradient reduction in denaturant concentration of the feed stream over 30 min maintained the stability of the expanded bed during adsorptive refolding. In a separate experiment, buoyancy-induced mixing was completely avoided by performing refolding in a settled bed, which achieved comparable yields to refolding in an expanded bed but required a slightly more complex process. A total of 10% of the available KSI,(His6) was recovered as biologically active and purified protein using the described purification and refolding process, and the yield was further increased to 19% by performing a second iteration of the on-column refolding operation. This process should be applicable for other polyhistidine tagged proteins and is likely to have the greatest benefit for proteins that tend to aggregate when refolded by dilution.
