Capturing the Essence of Organic Synthesis: From Bioactive Natural Products to Designed Molecules in Today’s Medicine

Abstract: In this perspective article, I outline my group's research involving the chemical syntheses of medicinally important natural products, exploration of their bioactivity, and development of new asymmetric carbon-carbon bond forming reactions. The article also highlights our approach to molecular design and synthesis of conceptually novel inhibitors against target proteins involved in the pathogenesis human diseases, including AIDS and Alzheimer's disease.

“…Over the years, sulfonamides have been in clinical use [1,2] and are known to represent a class of medicinally important compounds [3][4][5] which are extensively used as antibacterial agents [6][7][8]. Sulfonamide has played a historically fundamental role in the advancement of structure-activity relationships [9] and potential utility of pharmacokinetics in drug design [10].…”

“…This structurally simple C 2 symmetry case was compared with NMR spectroscopic parameters to probe the behavior as chelate complex with Cu(I). The configuration of 1 analogs was extensively investigated in many references [47][48][49][50][51][52][53]. The present VCD study is original on such chiral molecules.…”

“…This design concept is inspired by the occurrence of numerous bioactive natural products with polyether subunits. 16,17 Our laboratory reported a range of exceptionally potent PIs with intriguing molecular features such as TMC-114, TMC126, GRL-06579, GRL-02031, and GRL-519. 18,19,20 These inhibitors show broad-spectrum antiviral activity against multidrug-resistant HIV-1 variants and show high genetic barrier to resistance.…”
